Chapter 424: Tang Wulin vs Du Bu Si (Part 1)
Seeing the two of them staring dumbfounded, Du Bu Si smiled warmly.
"How is it? Quite surprised, huh? I think this is enough to exchange for a Cosmic Creation Pill from you, right?"
Tang Wulin suppressed his pounding heart and nodded.
"Enough."
The Cosmic Creation Pill is a priceless treasure, and the Secret of the Body is no different.
With the Secret of the Body, at least Huo Yutong mastering the Golden-rank Body Martial Soul Second Awakening is a sure thing, and the two could also make great breakthroughs in body refinement and combat techniques.
Du Bu Si's sincerity was already quite evident.
"Hehe, that's good."
Du Bu Si closed his eyes, then suddenly stared straight at Tang Wulin.
"Tang Wulin, there's still one last thing today."
"What is it?"
Being stared at by him, Tang Wulin suddenly felt a jolt in his heart.
After seeing Du Bu Si today, he had continually felt that this Body Douluo gave off a different impression than before; the originally sharp, exposed vigor had obviously been concealed.
But just now, that vigor suddenly returned, and Tang Wulin felt that the person sitting opposite him seemed no longer an old man, but a fierce, evil demon god.
Du Bu Si said with utmost seriousness:
"I want to have a duel with you to put an end to the past; this duel will settle all grudges, regardless of win or loss, after this I will no longer hold any resentment toward your Shilake Academy over previous matters—what do you say?"
As he spoke, his aura surged like mountains and seas pressing toward Tang Wulin.
This isn't asking for Tang Wulin's opinion; it's clearly forcing him to agree! So this is the style of the original Body Sect Sect Master, Body Douluo Du Bu Si.
Feeling the tremendous pressure emanating from Du Bu Si, Tang Wulin clearly thought:
He smiled and said:
"Of course, no problem."
Du Bu Si's eyes involuntarily narrowed.
Although Tang Wulin agreed to his request, as the source of the aura he knew best, Tang Wulin's agreement wasn't due to being pressured by the aura; his aura couldn't exert much pressure on this youngster.
If his aura were a surging wave, then Tang Wulin would be a reef standing unmoving in the sea, no matter how the water crashes, it remains steadfast.
He couldn't help but laugh out loud toward the sky.
"Great! Great! This is interesting! Come on, let's fight up in the sky!"
Having said that, he turned into a green light, instantly burst through the roof, and flew up to high altitude.
Seeing this, an old man inside the house covered his face with both hands.
"Sect Master, can't you just walk through the door normally…… This will add another expense."
The burly man beside him gave a wry smile and comforted: "Alright, just understand the Sect Master; he's actually more stifled than any of us, it's time to let him have a good fight."
The people nearby all nodded in agreement.
As high-ranking members of the Body Sect, they understood Du Bu Si's inner frustration best.
This resentment can only be relieved through battle.
At that moment, their hearts all jolted.
A domineering mental force forcibly invaded their Sea of Spirit; then, vast and boundless mental power erupted, instantly enveloping the entire sky. All members of the Body Sect, whether disciples or teachers, at once stopped what they were doing and instinctively looked upward.
Although they looked toward the sky, they weren't "seeing" it with their eyes.
An exquisitely fine Mental Detection Net blanketed the whole sky; they could see nearly every speck of dust crystal clearly, yet strangely they felt no headache from information overload.
Moreover, they had a strange feeling that as soon as they focused their spirit, they could predict what would happen here in the next second.
This sensation, as if they had glimpsed the future, was incredibly novel for them; plus they noticed Tang Wulin and Du Bu Si in the sky, and they were all very curious about what would happen next.
In the VIP reception room, Huo Yutong slowly opened her eyes; a rose-golden brilliant light flashed within and vanished.
All of this was naturally her doing.
After her martial soul evolved into the Eye of Fate, all her soul skills were comprehensively enhanced—not only was their power greatly increased over before, but they also somewhat took on qualities of the fate attribute.
Take her Mental Detection Sharing, for example: before she could merely predict opponents' moves, but now she can actually foreknow them.
On the surface there seems no difference, but in reality it's worlds apart.
Her behavior serves both to let everyone see the sky battle more clearly and as a demonstration: don't think our Shilake is weak just because Wulin is easy to talk to.
The facts prove it—effect was immediate; at this moment, the many Honored Douluo of the Body Sect looking at her eyes were filled with disbelief, wearing expressions of astonishment and uncertainty.
The vastness of Huo Yutong's Mental Detection Net truly frightened them.
Actually, once their cultivation reached this level, they could themselves perform similar mental detection.
But someone like Huo Yutong, who seems to envelop the whole sky, still being able to have such a high-degree fine mental detection— they dare not even imagine it.
Originally they saw Huo Yutong's petite, cute appearance and thought she was only here because she'd benefited from Tang Wulin's light, qualifying her to join the talks.
Now it seems they underestimated this young girl.
In the sky, Tang Wulin and Du Bu Si faced each other from afar.
The Body Sect originally sat on the mountain peak; now they flew a few hundred meters higher into the air, making the already thin atmosphere become even thinner.
Even an ordinary Honored Douluo couldn't stay long after reaching this altitude.
But this does not apply to these two at present.
Du Bu Si hooked a finger at Tang Wulin and said arrogantly:
"Come on, I'm your senior; let you make the first move—don't disappoint me."
"Okay."
Tang Wulin didn't decline either; after responding in a low voice, the Golden Dragon Spear appeared in his hand, his dragon wings flapped rapidly behind him, and he instantly turned into a golden meteor, charging toward Du Bu Si.
Du Bu Si laughed heartily; his whole body rapidly expanded, soon swelling to over ten times its size, turning into a giant of green tens of meters tall.
Facing the incoming golden meteor, the green giant threw a punch, meeting it head-on.
「Boom—」
The two collided, emitting a deafening roar; the surrounding clouds were all shattered by the terrifying shockwave, making the already thin sky even more empty.
Both of them were flung backward from the head-on collision, but unexpectedly, the green giant was flung even farther.
In other words, the victor of this collision was Tang Wulin.
