Chapter 579: True Unparalleled Skill: Fifth Trial Passed Perfectly

"We still cannot be careless; Hailong Douluo has yet to use his strongest secret technique!" Xiaobai's expression was grave. If things continued like this, it might force out Hailong Douluo's truly strongest strike.

Hailong Douluo was a Title Douluo who, like Sea Horse Douluo, excelled in fist techniques, but when his fist techniques were unleashed at full power, they were more than two or three times stronger than Sea Horse Douluo's.

"Little girl, your strength is indeed unexpectedly strong, but I will not admit defeat easily. I have one final punch left; if you can take it, you pass, if you cannot, you die. So, get ready, little girl, this will be my strongest attack." Hailong Douluo cautioned, "Sacrificial Skill, Ocean Impact, Ninth Soul Skill: Breaking Waves, Blue Scale Dragon Fist!"

Lv Lingqi's eyes narrowed. It was coming! Xiaobai had once told her that when Hailong Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill and Sacrificial Skill were used together, that was when he was at his strongest.

In fact, this Sacrificial Skill was his self-created soul skill; once used, his next attack would increase his attack power by two hundred percent while in a state of zero defense.

Twice the power of a Super Douluo—even an ordinary defense-type Title Douluo might not be able to block it.

Hailong Douluo threw a punch, and the formidable fist wind transformed into a massive blue dragon, pouncing fiercely toward Lv Lingqi.

Compared to that behemoth, Lv Lingqi appeared truly too petite.

"Fire—Fire-Melting Evil Burning Demon, Aggressive as Fire!"

The last of the Ghost God Four Absolutes, Fire, rising and flaming upward, represented infinite power.

This move, just like Hailong Douluo's self-created Sacrificial Skill, belonged to the state-type skills. The flaming of fire, burning everything, could strengthen her own power over a large range, but it discarded all defense.

This move could be stacked with the Reverse Battle Golden Body, significantly increasing the upper limit of the Golden Body, or perhaps even making it limitless.

The potential of this move of Lingqi's was shockingly great. As long as her body and soul could withstand it, then her ability to grow stronger against the strong could be infinitely elevated under the amplification of fire, forever standing in an invincible position.

"Her power has increased again; it seems it is already completely no less than mine. But what is the use of just increasing power? Without a soul skill of sufficient might, what will you use to resist my Ninth Soul Skill, Blue Scale Dragon Fist?"

Hailong Douluo clearly had not turned the corner yet, or rather, no matter how he thought about it, he would never have imagined that, having created the Ghost God Four Absolutes, Lv Lingqi could still possess other self-created soul skills comparable to a Title Douluo's Ninth Soul Skill.

"True Peerless—Zero Edge Hegemony!"

The first of Lingqi's Three Peerless Skills, the strongest Peerless Zero Edge Hegemony, saw her rapidly spinning the Feilian Halberd to whip up an incomparably intense whirlwind to fiercely attack her opponent, followed by separating the twin halberds to slash out an X-shaped strike.

The whirlwind first clashed with the fist wind of Hailong Douluo's Blue Scale Dragon Fist, and for a time, they were evenly matched.

But this was only the first stage of the Zero Edge Hegemony's attack.

With a beautiful pivot, Lv Lingqi had already separated her twin halberds, crossing her arms from top to bottom, and an "X"-shaped shockwave was emitted from her halberd blades.

The fist energy of the Blue Scale Dragon Fist was instantly torn apart, and finally, an X-shaped wound was left on Hailong Douluo's body.

His Ninth Soul Skill was completely no match for Lv Lingqi's True Peerless, being broken cleanly and thoroughly.

Hailong Douluo looked at the huge scar on his chest in shock and burst into loud laughter, "Haha, how impressive, truly shocking. I never expected the power of a self-created soul skill to actually be stronger than my Ninth Soul Skill!"

"Little girl, I am deeply satisfied with your combat experience, combat literacy, physical fitness, and soul power intensity. In this Spirit Fighting, I admit defeat wholeheartedly. You have passed this trial!"

"Many thanks, Senior." Lv Lingqi cupped her fists in gratitude. At this moment, the Sea God's Light descended from the sky, "Lv Lingqi, Sea God Fifth Trial passed perfectly, Sea God Affinity increased by twenty percent, now at fifty-five percent." Unlike the Tang San of the original work, the Sea God rated this trial of Lv Lingqi's as a perfect pass, and her affinity was increased by twenty percent in one go.

This was also normal; Lingqi had not used any petty tricks, and every match was fought through relying on her hard strength.

At most, when fighting Sea Horse and Sea Spear Douluo, she had observed their martial techniques beforehand, but this did not count as cheating; it was a form of combat wisdom, the so-called "know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles," right?

She had waited for the two to recover before challenging them, and she had not taken advantage of them.

The Sea God was not only not angry but became increasingly satisfied with this successor. While her fighting spirit was high, she was not a reckless person without strategy; she would surely become his most perfect successor.

Lingqi thought of something, and before she could be happy, she immediately checked her Sixth Trial, only to see it written: "Sea God Sixth Trial, persist for the time it takes for one incense stick to burn under the joint attack of the Seven Sacred Pillars Douluo. You only have one chance; failure means all trials are failed."

Sure enough, this Sixth Trial was no longer the one Nan Feihuang told her about, where Haishan Douluo Bo Saixi would personally take action.

That was the situation where the Fifth Trial was passed by taking a shortcut, which would increase the difficulty of the Sixth Trial. Now that Lv Lingqi had passed this Fifth Trial so perfectly, why would the Sea God be bored enough to increase the difficulty of her Sixth Trial?

This was also the method Lv Lingqi had thought of for herself to crack how Bo Saixi might try to kill her.

Lv Lingqi was a female general after all, and she understood military strategy. Since she could not beat Bo Saixi, then, as long as she did not let her take action, would that not be fine?

The only chance Bo Saixi had to kill her was the Sixth Trial, during the trial itself. At other times, Bo Saixi not only could not kill her, but had to protect her; otherwise, the first one who would not forgive Bo Saixi would be the Sea God whom she had worshipped for a lifetime.

As the person closest to the gods, enjoying the glory bestowed by the gods, if she still took the lead in defying the gods, that would be a crime one degree worse. Bo Saixi would never dare to do so.

Looking at the card, Lv Lingqi smiled confidently. Although fighting seven Title Douluo at once was not easy, it was still simpler than fighting Bo Saixi.

The strength of Haishan Douluo was several times more powerful than all the Seven Sacred Pillars Douluo combined; they were simply not on the same level.

Inside the Sea God Hall, Bo Saixi looked at Lv Lingqi, who had finished the Fifth Trial, and let out a deep sigh, "Is it fate? In the end, I still cannot wait for Tang Chen. Forget it... forget it...!"

She had already abandoned her original plan.

Although she did not want to die in order to see Tang Chen again, that did not mean she was evil.

The desire to survive was human nature. Under the rules, she had tried to kill the person taking the trial; although her attacks were too heavy, she had not violated the rules and had not committed any errors.

Since one came to participate in the trials, one should have been psychologically prepared that if one did not pass, one would die.

But since this opportunity was already lost, she was relieved. Once Lingqi completed the Sea God Nine Trials, she would naturally fulfill the duties she was meant to fulfill.

In Bo Saixi's heart, the importance of the Sea God was not inferior to Tang Chen at all. She could be considered one of the few people in the Douluo Shijie who could barely control her own "love-struck brain."
