Chapter 346

Corresponding to Long Aotian, who used his Martial Soul True Body at the very beginning, Tang Wulin also summoned his two great Dragon King soul spirits at the start of this battle.

Before this match began, Huo Yutong, speaking from experience, told him some points to note when fighting Long Aotian.

After saying that, Huo Yutong summed it up in one sentence.

"As the top of the younger generation of the Body Sect, Long Aotian's strength exceeds my expectations; you absolutely cannot regard him as an ordinary Soul Sage, and if possible, at least treat him as a Soul Douluo, especially when he is in the three-in-one state."

The so-called three-in-one state refers to Long Aotian simultaneously using Heaven-Man Unity, Body Martial Soul Second Awakening, and Martial Soul True Body.

This is his state of perfectly merging battle techniques, secret arts, and soul skills; it can be said to be his strongest state, and although it cannot last too long, this does not hide his abnormal combat power when in this state.

Tang Wulin had no doubt that, without him and Huo Yutong among this generation's youth, Long Aotian would definitely be the top genius.

At this moment, facing this top genius, Tang Wulin did not dare to be careless and right away exerted the full power his Blue Silver Emperor martial soul could muster.

As the fiery red soul ring lit up, the fourth soul skill, God of Fire's Wrath, activated, and dozens of fire dragons shot into the sky, flying toward Long Aotian, with the leading dragon being the Fire Dragon King.

Facing Tang Wulin's offensive, Long Aotian held his breath and focused, his first three soul rings lighting up simultaneously, after which his body began to undergo strange changes.

His already tall body first bulked up another layer, his height rising to over twenty meters, then a layer of golden light emanated from his whole body, making his physique appear as majestic as a deity descending to earth.

His hands also quickly transformed, one into an axe, the other into a huge sword, with an imposing presence.

Obviously, the effects of his three soul skills are respectively physique enhancement, bodily hardening, and bodily transformation.

After releasing a series of soul skills, Long Aotian did not hesitate and swung his axe down at the incoming fire dragon swarm.

"Boom!"

The terrifying shockwave raged, and the entire competition platform shook once under his overwhelming power.

One fire dragon was instantly chopped apart by him; moreover, under the violent shockwave, some nearby fire dragons also struggled to maintain their form.

In response, Tang Wulin did not panic at all; while letting the Fire Dragon King continue to command the fire dragon swarm to surround him, the Water Dragon King, under his direction, also began swiftly flying toward Long Aotian.

Long Aotian raised his hand and then began a continuous series of slashes.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom——"

One loud boom after another kept ringing out, and the noise grew louder and louder; gradually, not only was the competition platform shaking, but it seemed as if the spectator stands were also beginning to tremble under his brute force.

Under the incessant impact and shaking, the plaza seemed to have experienced an earthquake, causing everyone's minds to involuntarily become somewhat flustered.

Tang Wulin's expression involuntarily became somewhat solemn.

Long Aotian's strength is indeed formidable; at the very least, the fire dragon swarm controlled by the Fire Dragon King finds it hard to get close to him.

And if not near him, even using Fire Flame Blast would likely struggle to inflict much damage on him in this state, merely wasting soul power in vain.

Fortunately, however, it is not that there is no way to deal with it.

"Ha, you've come?"

Long Aotian's ongoing chopping motion suddenly paused, and he leapt aside.

At the moment he jumped away, a water-blue halo appeared beneath his feet; if his movement had been even slightly slower, he would have been ensnared by that halo.

"Two against one…"

Long Aotian muttered a sentence, his expression showing no displeasure; on the contrary, he looked quite excited. He looked at Tang Wulin and shouted, "Why don't you also join the fight? I don't believe you lack close-combat ability!"

Tang Wulin gave a slight smile and replied:

"Forget it; first deal with the immediate danger, then we'll talk."

"Haha, good!"

Long Aotian laughed loudly toward the sky a few times, then he took a deep breath and slightly squatted.

With this inhalation, the surrounding air was drawn toward him, and Tang Wulin even felt a strong pull dragging him toward Long Aotian's direction.

His expression grew solemn.

He could clearly sense that Long Aotian's aura had changed.

As a white aura rose from his body, Long Aotian's aura instead became gentler, making it hard for Tang Wulin to gauge his presence.

Obviously, this is the pinnacle of battle technique: Heaven-Man Unity.

At this moment, facing the encirclement of the two Dragon Kings, Long Aotian without any hesitation unveiled his second trump card.

He glanced at the two giant dragons before him, then tapped his foot on the ground and swiftly charged forward.

Tang Wulin tried to control his soul beast to block him, but he felt as slippery as a loach, easily dodging the Dragon Kings' pincer attack and quickly closing the distance with Tang Wulin.

Despite being over twenty meters tall, his stature was still too large; on the 120-meter competition platform, that distance was merely a few steps for him.

When he was about thirty meters from Tang Wulin, he clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and then a white light rose under his control and shot toward Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed; he kicked out in midair, and the Wind King's Broken Precept Slash shot forth, colliding with that white light.

"Bang!"

The massive wind element and Long Aotian's attack mutually opposed each other; soon the outcome was decided, and as the hurricane dispersed, Long Aotian stepped back slightly, his eyes filled with surprise.

It was quite obvious that he was the one who lost in this collision.

And soon, his surprise turned entirely into delight.

"Excellent! As expected of you, to show my respect, I will display my greatest power here for you to see!"

Having said that, a silver light shot up into the sky, its overwhelming aura even causing Tang Wulin to involuntarily hold his breath.

White flames surged, silver light blossomed; at this moment Long Aotian had unleashed all his trump cards, standing on the platform he looked like a living deity.

No wonder Huo Yutong said to regard him as a Soul Douluo; in Tang Wulin's eyes, his current strength is likely already approaching that of an Honored Douluo.

Even though he cannot maintain this state for long, as a Soul Sage this is already a terrifying burst of power; even a Soul Douluo would find few who could defeat him.

And after reaching the three-in-one state, Long Aotian wasted no more words; he slid his feet, his whole body gliding to Tang Wulin's front, then his right hand transformed into an axe and he swept it horizontally.

His axe was so fierce that the spectators all let out a gasp.

With such a huge axe, if it struck Tang Wulin's body, half of his physique would likely be shaved away.
