Chapter 433: Unfavorable Situation, Seizing the Chance for Victory
The enemy advances, I retreat; the enemy retreats, I advance; the enemy tires, I strike—Qingluan is using a very typical guerrilla tactic.
The saying "nothing is unbreakable, only speed is invincible" has truly been pushed to the extreme by him.
If one were to ask who in this world could compare to Qingluan's speed right now, I fear it would only be the Min Clan patriarch, Bai He; that fellow has eight spirit rings on him, all related to speed, making him even more extreme than Qingluan.
It is just that Bai He has absolutely no attack power, whereas Qingluan is not only fast but also possesses formidable attack power, not beneath that of Guangling.
Furthermore, he also has a very terrifying sonic attack method.
"Nan Feihuang, let me build a battlefield more suitable for us," Qingluan Douluo said, raising a finger to his lips and speaking softly, "Shh!"
Following this hush, the entire world seemed to fall silent.
The sounds of battle, the discussions of the crowd, and even the sound of the wind could no longer be heard.
Qingluan Douluo's eighth spirit ring lit up.
At this moment, only his voice echoed between heaven and earth.
"Eighth spirit skill, Azure Sky Cloud Sea Sound Dust Extinction!"
This is a super-powerful control-type skill capable of trapping an opponent in an environment similar to a vacuum domain.
"The surrounding air has actually been completely drained in an instant!" Feihuang felt that he was now completely unable to breathe and had to hold his breath, but he could not hold out for long.
The power system of the Douluo Continent is not as miraculous as cultivation; as long as one has not become a god, no matter how strong Feihuang becomes, he is still human and needs to breathe to survive.
Fighting in a vacuum environment is extremely disadvantageous for anyone.
It is just a pity that Feihuang's Unparalleled Domain was not activated; otherwise, breaking this vacuum domain would not have been too difficult.
"Then, the final offensive is coming. Nan Feihuang, welcome your first defeat in this life. Seventh spirit skill, Martial Soul Avatar!" Qingluan said confidently.
All his preparations were complete; he had already truly won this battle.
Entering the Martial Soul Avatar state, the blue bird is magnificent, resembling a phoenix, its mournful cry piercing the heavens, striking once to end it all.
Qingluan's figure at this time did not grow larger like typical Spirit Masters who activate their Martial Soul Avatar; instead, it became increasingly smaller, which is the same as Bai He.
This does not mean his soul power did not increase, but rather that it was forcibly compressed; this type of avatar allows the speed he erupts with to be even more terrifying.
If the crowd could still see the streak of light Qingluan Douluo turned into while moving earlier, then at this moment, he seemed to have truly disappeared from the world.
One cannot see his figure, and because of the existence of the vacuum domain, one cannot hear any sound either.
If not for the wounds appearing on Nan Feihuang's body from time to time, everyone would likely think he had vanished.
"So fast, I am completely unable to parry this speed. Qingluan Douluo is much stronger than Senior Guangling. A one-level difference between Level 97 and Level 96, the gap in strength is actually this huge," Nan Feihuang thought to himself, though fortunately, his defensive power far exceeded Qingluan Douluo's attack power.
Qingluan's strikes, even his sharp claws, found it difficult to break Nan Feihuang's defense.
At this moment, the damage he caused to Nan Feihuang through continuous attacks was merely minor injuries.
But firstly, many small amounts add up to a lot, and the accumulation of minor injuries is also very terrifying; the self-healing speed of the Blue Silver Emperor could not keep up with Qingluan Douluo's attack speed at this moment.
Secondly, there is this vacuum domain; even with Feihuang's cultivation, if he were to stay in this vacuum domain for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, he would inevitably suffocate. "So strong, is that the true strength of the Spirit Hall's Third Elder, Qingluan Douluo?" Dugu Bo sighed, "It is fortunate that the other aspects of Xiaofeijiang are stronger than his, allowing him to withstand those countless invisible attacks per second. If it were me, I would likely have already been torn to shreds by Qingluan Douluo."
Dugu Bo finally understood at this moment that although he had broken through to Level 95, there was still a huge gap compared to these true powerhouses.
The only one here who could steadily defeat Qingluan is likely Lan Xue, who possesses Extreme Ice.
After all, speed is useless against Extreme Ice; even if Qingluan's wind is close to Extreme Wind, as long as it falls short by a hair, it is no match for Extreme Ice. Once the cold air enters his body, his speed would be completely crippled.
But the problem is that Nan Feihuang's ice also happens to fall short of an Extreme Attribute by a hair, being on the same level as Qingluan's wind.
His ice cannot break Qingluan's wind.
The cold air is completely blown away by the wind radiating from Qingluan's body surface; unable to enter his body, it cannot reduce his speed.
"Should I switch to the Dunjia Heavenly Book martial soul?" Nan Feihuang is not without a way to break the deadlock at this moment; the Earth Roar within the Dunjia Heavenly Book could break Qingluan Douluo's speed.
Although Earth Roar contains the word "earth," it is not something that can only be used on the ground; otherwise, the limitations of this move would be too great, and it would not deserve to be called a 100,000-year spirit skill.
If this move were used in the air, it would cause the entire sky to vibrate.
Large-scale attack skills also have differences; for example, Flying Dragon in the Sky, Dragon Cannon Annihilation, and Heavenly Azure Silence Thunder, while powerful in attack and wide in coverage, still leave gaps.
With Qingluan Douluo's current speed, any skill with gaps is no different from being a display.
But Earth Roar is different; this move has no gaps at all. Once unleashed, it is an omnidirectional strike within a range.
As long as he can make Qingluan Douluo's speed stop for an instant, even if only for 0.1 seconds, Feihuang could lock onto him with his Mind Eye, then activate the Wild Thunder Prison to trap him, and finally switch to the Fangtian Halberd to win with the Dance of Gods and Ghosts.
It is just that by doing so, Feihuang would essentially be revealing all his trump cards.
The Spirit Hall might not tolerate him having Twin Spirits; if they were to flip the table and refuse to gamble, what then? Nan Feihuang would only be able to flip the table and summon Red Hare.
Although Feihuang believes the people of the Offering Hall should not be so shameless, he does not want to gamble on their character; besides, he seems to have seen another chance for victory.
"Hehe, Your Excellency Qingluan, so you also have such a weakness. No... or rather, this is the weakness of everyone on the Douluo Continent. I have won this battle for sure!" Nan Feihuang raised his head confidently and suddenly closed his eyes, letting Qingluan Douluo's wind blades, bird claws, and bird wings strike his body.
He seemed to have given up, completely ignoring the accumulation of injuries on his body.
In the shadows, Qian Renxue was watching this battle alongside Qian Daoliu, and seeing this, she became very anxious, "Grandfather, please go and stop this battle! Feihuang is simply no match for Grandfather Qingluan. We have already won this match, but if this continues, he will surely die at the hands of Grandfather Qingluan."
She wanted to capture Nan Feihuang and bring him home, not see him die.
"Wait a moment, something is wrong!" Qian Daoliu frowned slightly. As a Limit Douluo, he could clearly feel that Nan Feihuang's aura was not only not weakening but was rising rapidly.
He closed his eyes not because he had given up, and certainly not because he was admitting defeat, but because he was concentrating his spirit to prepare for something.
On the side of the Gulei Kingdom, Nan Feiling and the others were also anxious and teary-eyed. At this very moment, Lv Lingqi, who should have been the most worried, laughed, "Hehe, my husband has won this battle."
Xun Yu nodded, "That is correct. The Lord has finally discovered Qingluan Douluo's weakness."
"But the Lord still needs more tempering; it actually took him so long to see it. If I had the Lord's cultivation, that Qingluan Douluo would have fallen under my Halberd a stick of incense ago." Dian Wei's combat awareness is far stronger than Nan Feihuang's; he was the first one here to discover the chance for victory.
