Chapter 291: Water-Fire Blue Silver Emperor

The Azure Sea Spirit Ape was instantly entangled, it let out an anxious shout, then began to struggle violently.

Then something strange occurred: as it struggled, the part of the Blue Silver Emperor that had received the strongest impact suddenly turned to water, then solidified, and after its impact force faded, it rebound and bound it again.

The Azure Sea Spirit Ape's struggles seemed to fall into empty air, having no way to deal with the Blue Silver Emperor's entanglement.

By then, Di Yun'er had already arrived in front of it.

Her first soul ring lit up, as if a dragon's roar sounded on her body, her fists turned golden, and she punched down at the Azure Sea Spirit Ape.

Tang Wulin's eyes lit up instantly; he was extremely familiar with the soul skill Di Yun'er was using at this moment.

This was precisely one of the soul skills he used most often: Golden Dragon Body.

"Bang!"

The Azure Sea Spirit Ape entangled by the Blue Silver Emperor had no time to dodge and had to raise both hands to block the blow head-on.

"Crack!", everyone seemed to hear the sound of the Azure Sea Spirit Ape's arms breaking.

Li Yongyue and Wu Ming both swallowed involuntarily, their gazes at Di Yun'er gaining a hint of awe.

As inner-disciples of Shilake Academy, they had naturally heard of the mighty reputation of the Golden Dragon Ancestor, but hearing about it was one thing, seeing it with their own eyes was another.

Di Yun'er's power is just too formidable, isn't it?

Obviously, the Azure Sea Spirit Ape thought the same; it let out a shrill cry, azure-green light shot up into the sky, breaking the azure-blue Blue Silver Emperor's binding, and it hastily turned and fled.

However, at that moment, hundreds of fiery-red Blue Silver Emperors sprouted from the ground, their bodies covered in spreading flames.

Then, immediately afterward, everyone only saw Tang Wulin's fiery-red soul ring light flash, and a violent eruption erupted.

"Boom—"

Towering flames burst forth, not only startling everyone but also Tang Wulin himself, who quickly shouted, "Wu Ming senior! Quick!"

Through mental detection, he could see that the Azure Sea Spirit Ape was not yet dead at this moment.

But waiting any longer might not be safe; the flames were still burning on its body, and Tang Wulin estimated that even if he did nothing from now on, its life would last less than five seconds.

Hearing his voice, Wu Ming snapped out of his daze, quickly drew a dagger, stepped forward and delivered the finishing blow.

Seeing the black soul ring rise, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, then turned their strange gazes toward Tang Wulin.

Under the impact of that violent explosion just now, all the trees within tens of meters around were blown away.

Di Yun'er said, word by word:

"Is its direct combat power inferior to that of the Golden Dragon?"

"Um..."

Tang Wulin coughed once, then said embarrassedly:

"Um... sorry, this is the first time I've used this soul skill; I didn't expect its power to be so great."

In Dragon Valley he couldn't even summon his martial soul, so he had no chance to test his fourth and fifth soul skills, thus completely misjudging the power of that strike just now.

Zhang Lexuan voiced the group's doubt on their behalf.

"Never mind that, is that your Blue Silver Emperor?"

Tang Wulin had just used at least two attributes of the Blue Silver Emperor, namely water and fire attributes.

This is not an ability the Blue Silver Emperor should have. Facing everyone's doubtful gazes, Tang Wulin explained:

"This is because my Blue Silver Emperor underwent a mutation by chance, and now my Blue Silver Emperor is divided into two types."

The Blue Silver Emperor activated with the Water Dragon King's left arm bone as its core possesses the water attribute trait "Pulling Sword Breaks Water, Water Flows More"; when facing an impact strong enough to snap the Blue Silver Emperor, it automatically partially turns into water, then condenses in place to bind the target, specifically countering opponents that rely solely on physical attacks.

The countermeasure is also simple, just like the Azure Sea Spirit Ape just now using a domineering energy attack to shatter it completely; however, this also means the entangled opponent consumes far more energy than Tang Wulin does.

Meanwhile, the Blue Silver Emperor activated with the Fire Dragon King's right arm bone as its core possesses the fire attribute burning trait, with raging flames on it, greatly compensating for the Blue Silver Emperor's lack of attack power.

And the reason Tang Wulin was able to produce such a violent explosion just now is because of his fourth soul skill: Flame Blast.

The effect of this soul skill is similar to Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire Blast; both instantly detonate the energy contained in flames to boost attack power.

In Tang Wulin's perception, the flames wrapped around his Blue Silver Emperor are far weaker than Wu Ming's, so he subconsciously thought his Flame Blast would be inferior to the Golden Crow True Fire Burn.

But he forgot one point: the reason his Blue Silver Emperor's flames are inferior to Golden Crow True Fire is that Golden Crow True Fire itself is already near-extreme-level flame, whereas the flames on his Blue Silver Emperor come entirely from the Fire Dragon King's power, originally having no flame at all—this is an innate gap.

But when it comes to comparing the two soul skills, that's another matter; Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire Burn is merely her second soul skill, with only a hundred-year age, how could it compare to the Flame Blast of a god-level soul ring?

Balancing the two, the Flame Blast's erupted power exceeded Tang Wulin's expectations, even being somewhat stronger than Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire Burn.

It seems that after returning, he should properly test the power of each new soul skill; Tang Wulin thought helplessly.

After hearing his explanation, everyone was somewhat dazed.

Even Di Yun'er's gaze at Tang Wulin was full of strangeness.

Just that strike of his alone, the attack power of his Blue Silver Emperor is already not inferior to her Golden Dragon.

Tang Wulin felt a bit uneasy under that gaze, quickly changed the subject: "Um, Wu Ming senior, quickly try absorbing the soul ring to see what soul skill it will give you."

"Ah, okay."

Hearing that, Wu Ming recovered from his shock, went to the corpse of the Azure Sea Spirit Ape, sat down where he was, and began to absorb the soul ring.

Huo Yutong came to Tang Wulin's side, naturally took his hand, and gave him a faint smile.

Immediately afterward, her voice sounded in his mind.

"Did you see anything?"

Indeed, she still knows him best; Tang Wulin couldn't help but feel moved.

He answered in his heart: "Her first soul skill should be the same as my first soul skill, both Golden Dragon Body."

"So you're saying she shares the same bloodline as you?"

Upon hearing Huo Yutong's question, Tang Wulin thought for two seconds, then shook his head.

"Hard to say, I don't think so."

Having the same soul skill doesn't prove anything.

Just like the Duke's Mansion lineage, they have had the White Tiger martial soul for generations; although the first seven soul skills are almost identical, the soul beasts they hunt are not completely the same.

The soul skills of those who possess the same martial soul are naturally highly similar, so Tang Wulin and Di Yun'er are no exception.

He still lacks direct evidence to prove their relationship.

Tang Wulin never expected that the direct evidence he wanted would come so quickly.
