Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At this point, dread began to creep into the Smiley Face Douluo’s heart. In any case, there was no way even he could stop this match as this was the Battle of Five Gods. He could only pray quietly that Tang Wulin not be tricked by the opponent.
“Boom!” The Thousand Accusing Fingers was so extraordinarily powerful that the Qilin Douluo was blasted higher into the air when the attack landed on his fists.
The Bluesilver Emperor opened up once again after the collision. It wrapped itself around toward Tong Yu like a large net. At the same time, there was a loud and clear dragon’s roar. A giant golden dragon bore out from the center of the Bluesilver Emperor.
The golden dragon was quite different from Goldsong. It had wings and it was over thirty meters in length. As soon as it appeared, the coliseum’s entire battle zone was covered with a golden sheen.
It felt as if countless giant dragons were roaring in the air. The incomparably tyrannical blood essence fluctuation caused intense fear in all the soul masters with dragon-type martial soul in attendance.
Not only for those with dragon-type martial soul, as all soul masters with soul beast-type martial souls felt like paying reverence as soon as they heard the dragon’s roar. If felt as if they had seen the king of all beasts at that exact moment. They could no longer feel any other emotions besides fear and respect.
The Fox King Su Mu could not help sitting upright as he witnessed the scene from the back of the platform.
Years ago, he had originally had the upper hand when he sparred against Tang Wulin. He lost in the end because of Tang Wulin’s bloodline suppression.
Circumstances changed with the passage of time. So many years had passed, he had lost count of how powerful Tang Wulin’s bloodline aura was compared to back then. At this point, he could feel that his nine-tailed fox bloodline was shivering in fear.
This even happened behind the protective shield that could filter almost all energy fluctuations. It should be able to filter a large amount of bloodline aura too. Could it be that he was feeling fearful despite only hearing Tang Wulin’s voice? Had Tang Wulin truly become this powerful already?
As one of the Eight Heavenly King, he and the rest of the Kings admired Long Yue almost blindly. However, after this, it was the first time that he was wondering if Big Brother Long was still a worthy opponent for Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin must have been truly formidable to have a two-win streak in the Battle of Five Gods. Moreover, all the opponents that he fought against were of Title Douluo-rank and above.
After his defeat all those years ago, Su Mu had stubbornly refused to accept his loss, but on this day, only dejection remained in his heart.
How could he ever defeat such an opponent? Both of them were on completely different levels from what they had been!
The golden dragon’s roar rocked the entire arena. The higher order soul masters were shocked upon witnessing Tang Wulin’s performance.
There was no doubt that the reason those gigantic vines were so powerful was that he had unleashed his martial soul avatar. Yet, what was going on with the gigantic golden dragon? That was certainly not a spirit soul because it was different from the one seen in the day before’s battle. Could it be that this was another form of martial soul avatar?
Yet, even those soul masters with twin martial souls could not possibly unleash two martial soul avatars simultaneously!
This was a matter that had already gone beyond common sense. How had Tang Wulin actually managed to do that?
It was true that those with twin martial souls could not do this, but in reality, Tang Wulin did not have twin martial souls.
He had not known that he could do this after his breakthrough to a seven-ringed cultivation base. He had done it unintentionally during one of his cultivation periods and was astonished to discover that when he launched his martial soul avatar, the Bluesilver Emperor and his bloodline power could be separated.
In a sense, it was multitasking, but the Bluesilver Emperor only needed his combat instincts, while the Golden Dragon King Bloodline occupied the dominant position. In this way, these two martial soul avatars could appear at the same time.
The Bluesilver Emperor martial soul was supposed to be used mostly for control, while the Golden Dragon King Bloodline was used purely for assault. The combination of these two resulted in the exponential elevation of Tang Wulin’s fighting capacity.
On the other hand, this was the first time Tang Wulin had ever unleashed these two great martial soul avatars simultaneously in an actual battle.
After being blasted away earlier, the Qilin Douluo, whose bloodline was shaken after his body was pierced by the Thousand Accusing Finger’s powerful penetrating force, suddenly broke through the sound barrier to charge at the Golden Dragon King avatar in front of him.
The Golden Dragon Roar was used to blaze a trail while the Golden Dragon Soars to the Heaven was used to sprint to the finish line. These two skills combined perfectly in addition to the supplementary Golden Dragon Tremor Burst. The Qilin Douluo had had the upper hand, but the tide had completely turned.
Tong Yu was also feeling shocked. He was not only flabbergasted after witnessing Tang Wulin’s two types of martial soul avatars but also the transformation of his bloodline.
Ever since the Qilin bloodline concealed in Tong Yu’s body had awakened, he had always used his bloodline to suppress others, but he had never been suppressed by someone else before.
From the moment the Golden Dragon King avatar was unleashed, he was shocked by Tang Wulin’s incomparably tyrannical bloodline fluctuation. The Five Elements Qilin bloodline in his body had actually reacted with a response similar to a sorrowful cry. The disparity between their bloodlines had manifested. A soul master’s cultivation base would weaken when his or her bloodline was suppressed.Meanwhile, Tang Wulin’s ferocious attack had already arrived.
Tong Yu had no way out!
Tong Yu took a deep breath and the bloodline in his body surged. He emitted a five-colored glow from the inside of his body that appeared underneath his feet. The five-colored radiance condensed separately into gigantic runes of five different colors. Each of these runes carried the distinguishing traits of the five elements including metal, wood, water, fire and earth. When these runes appeared, five gigantic vortexes appeared in the sky.
Tang Wulin could hear a faint voice echoing from Tong Yu’s body. It said, “Five Elements Cycle, Qilin Transformation!”
In midair, Tong Yu swayed his body and transformed into a five-colored Qilin, over ten meters in length. Compared to his ferocious appearance earlier, the Five Elements Qilin looked to be exceedingly robust. Its entire body was filled with the power of the five elements’ metamorphosis. As Tang Wulin charged toward it, the Qilin widened its mouth and spat out a burst of five-colored flames.
In that split second, Tang Wulin felt dizzy as if the sky and earth were spinning. The sensation of the Five Elements Truefire and his Golden Dragon Soars to the Heaven colliding into one another was as if he was being bathed. He felt like his strength and soul power were washed away. He watched as a single flash of light beamed from the horn on the Five Elements Qilin’s head. A stream of five-colored radiance arrived before Tang Wulin instantly.
At the exact moment the stream of light appeared, the eighth soul ring on Tong Yu’s body also illuminated.
‘This is no good!’
A feeling of intense panic radiated through Tang Wulin’s entire body in a split second. At that moment, Tang Wulin felt like he was in a life and death situation. The five-colored radiance arrived at the area between his Golden Dragon King’s brows almost instantaneously. The terrible fear he felt made his entire body shiver in fright.
As he endured it, his subconscious told him that his body was completely incapable of withstanding such an attack. He would certainly die if it were to strike him.
The Five Elements Cycle seemed to be a domain-like power, probably akin to a spiritual domain. He relied on the Five Elements Cycle Domain to suppress the potent effect that Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon King Bloodline had on him. Moreover, it was effective in instantly dispersing the power of Tong Yu’s five elements.
The Five Elements Truefire appeared to be an indirect attack, yet in reality, it was more formidable than any other. Over seventy percent of the offensive power caused by Tang Wulin’s incredible all-out strike had vanished after being caught in the Five Elements Truefire. The stream of five-colored radiance that arrived soon after was the true fatal attack.
On the main platform, the Smiley Face Douluo Hu Jie stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with shock. The situation that he had feared the most was taking place.
Not only him, En Ci and even Dai Tianling had a change of countenance. None of them wanted to see the Tang Sect’s Sect Master die in the competitive arena of the Battle of Five Gods! If such an incident were to actually take place, it would be devastating for the empire. The empire would certainly feel the unbridled wrath of the Tang Sect.
Many of the spectators on the scene were taken aback. Zhang Geyang was already beaming with delight as he sat in the box. However, he failed to notice, right by his side, Gu Yuena’s body had suddenly turned illusionary.
Time seemed to have frozen still at that very moment. The change happened too quickly. Tang Wulin still had the upper hand one moment ago, yet he was about to face a life and death situation in the next. Who had the courage to believe such a shift?
‘I can’t dodge anymore.’
Tang Wulin was aware that he could not possibly evade the attack. He had also been rendered helpless after his strength was washed away by the five-colored radiance earlier.
There was no doubt that this would be a fatal strike for him.
On the other hand, he suddenly discovered something right then. His body was reacting to the stress of mortal danger.
There was a terrifying energy fluctuation instantaneously Everything in the area surrounding Tang Wulin’s body suddenly warped. All of the spectators, including the numerous powerhouses on the platform, found themselves entranced.
The trance came so suddenly that everyone was taken by surprise.
