Chapter 426
Du Bu Si didn't care what Tang Wulin was thinking now; he laughed ha ha, his laughter deafening, his whole person instantly crossed the several-hundred-meter distance between them and stood before Tang Wulin.
Fast!
Tang Wulin startled, hastily raised his spear to block, and the Golden Dragon Tyrant Body was also activated at the same time, scales over his whole body emitting a dazzling light.
But the next instant, he was struck and sent flying, his qi and blood surging, and the Golden Dragon Tyrant Body was forcibly shattered.
Du Bu Si gave Tang Wulin no chance to recover, quickly following up with punch after punch hitting his body, not giving him any time to catch his breath.
Although the Golden Rank Body Martial Soul Second Awakening is formidable, its consumption is correspondingly enormous; using it for a short burst is still okay, but prolonged use would burn one's life.
Therefore, he must defeat Tang Wulin as soon as possible; if he fails to defeat Tang Wulin while the Golden Rank Second Awakening is active, once it can no longer be sustained, he will surely lose.
However, as the fight went on, Du Bu Si felt increasingly strange.
Clearly every punch landed on Tang Wulin's body, each punch being a fierce force he could hardly withstand; it looked like this kid wasn't lightly injured, yet why could he endure so many punches?
By now, a normal person would have already vomited blood and died, right?
What Du Bu Si couldn't see was that inside Tang Wulin's body, at that moment the emerald-gold life soul core was operating at high speed, quickly repairing the damage from Du Bu Si's attacks.
Du Bu Si's attacks are indeed fierce, almost each capable of inflicting serious internal injury on Tang Wulin, but the problem is Tang Wulin's self-healing ability is even stronger.
Before Du Bu Si's next strike arrived, the injury from his previous strike had already fully healed, which is why Tang Wulin could endure for so long.
After successfully condensing his first soul core, Tang Wulin's Natural Son martial soul's potential was truly uncovered; the life-god power flowing in his body strengthened his self-healing to a terrifying degree, making it basically impossible to kill him by physical means unless a single blow directly killed him.
Tang Wulin also realized this; he frowned slightly, seeing Du Bu Si's fist fall again, his whole body suddenly elementalized into a mass of azure water, easily dodging Du Bu Si's strike, and then reappearing not far away in the distance.
"Hold on, senior, if you keep going like this you will surely lose."
"?"
Du Bu Si immediately stopped the fist he had just raised.
"What do you mean?"
"It's like this..."
Tang Wulin quickly explained his soul core's ability in a rapid tone.
During this, Du Bu Si's expression went from doubtful, to incredulous, then solemn, and finally returned to calm.
After Tang Wulin finished, he lightly asked: "Why are you telling me this? If you keep going like this, you're just taking advantage, aren't you?"
Tang Wulin sincerely said:
"Because you came to fight me bearing a grudge, if I won by relying on my recovery ability to drain your stamina, that would be too disrespectful of your resolve."
"I see." Du Bu Si laughed, his smile revealing a sense of having let go of everything, frank and carefree: "You are Mu En's disciple, truly a pity; if I had met you earlier, I would never have let you go."
"But if it were you who met me, I might not have grown to be like today."
"That's also true."
Du Bu Si nodded in agreement. Tang Wulin's personality is indeed unsuitable for following him.
Or rather, if he had followed him, Tang Wulin would not have this personality.
He seizes what he likes, vents his resentment ruthlessly when things displease him, and destroys those he dislikes; this has been his modus operandi for most of his life, and such a person could never foster a disciple as likable as this.
He asked: "Then what do you plan to do? Since you're not preparing to fight me in your best attrition battle, why not just surrender?"
"Of course not." Tang Wulin shook his head decisively and said loudly: "I am the Sea God Pavilion Master, representing the face of Shilake Academy; my status dictates I cannot lose, so I am ready, Senior Du Bu Si, take this next strike—I will shatter you with a single blow."
Having said that, he gripped his spear with both hands and slightly bent his knees.
Du Bu Si was about to say something when his expression instantly changed.
Everyone on the ground stared blankly at the sky, unable to believe what they saw.
Originally, in the battle between Tang Wulin and Du Bu Si, Du Bu Si had been the main attacker, and his soul power far surpassed Tang Wulin's, so the sky was mostly filled with the dark green symbolizing his power.
Especially after he used the Golden Rank Body Martial Soul Second Awakening, the gold representing Tang Wulin became even rarer.
But now, the dark green light in the sky is being rapidly consumed.
A scarlet-gold light that had risen at some point spread quickly; before this domineering energy, Du Bu Si's power collapsed on contact, utterly unable to withstand it.
A terrifying destructive intent swept across the entire sky; Du Bu Si felt as if he had been locked onto by an ancient ferocious deity, no matter how he struggled he could not break free.
Tang Wulin's pale gold eyes suddenly brightened, his clear gold pupils devoid of any impurity, he uttered the name of the soul skill he would use, syllable by syllable.
"Gold! Dragon! Suppress! Prison! Kill!"
As the sound fell, the destructive intent filling the air suddenly found an outlet and surged toward Du Bu Si.
Du Bu Si's eyes were instantly covered in blood-red.
Golden Dragon Suppress Prison Kill, as the sole pure-attack soul skill in Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King arsenal, its intensity can only be described as beyond belief.
When used, the destructive intent erupting from the seal of Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon King bursts forth, delivering a devastating blow to the enemy's body and spirit.
This strike's attack power far exceeds Tang Wulin's comprehension; at least he does not believe his current self could withstand it.
Naturally, the cost of unleashing such an attack is also enormous: it will nearly drain all of Tang Wulin's soul power, and his Sea of Spirit will be ravaged by the Golden Dragon King's destructive intent, with a high risk of losing control.
Fortunately, Tang Wulin himself is actually not afraid of these destructive intents.
Originally, the Light Dragon King's skull could have granted him two soul skills, but in fact it gave him only one, because the remaining soul skill slot was reserved for a talent called "Holy Light Purification".
This talent forces Tang Wulin to stay constantly clear-headed, preventing him from being consumed by destructive intent; under its suppression, Tang Wulin would find it hard to lose control.
Previously, in the Qiankun Asking Love Valley, even when Tang Wulin was furious to the extreme, the reason he did not go berserk lies here.
