Soul Land 3: Legend Of The Dragon King Chapter 1508– Sudden Enlightenment

"The match will begin right after the countdown of five seconds!"

A giant protective barrier rose up to isolate all energy and sound within the scope of the compet.i.tion platform.

Thus, everything fell silent, and only then did Tang Wulin turn his gaze toward Li Weisi.

"I'm not sure what's happened to you, Your Majesty, but please allow me to apologize in advance as I won't be holding back due to your injuries; this is my way of showing respect to a powerful t.i.tled Douluo like you." Li Weisi extended a slight bow toward Tang Wulin as he spoke.

This was a compet.i.tion, not a battlefield, so he couldn't kill Tang Wulin. As such, if he were to offend Tang Wulin, then he could incur the wrath of the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, which would result in catastrophic consequences for him. As such, he had wisely decided to deliver such a piece of dialogue to cover for himself.

Tang Wulin merely nodded in silence in response.

"Five, four, three, two, one, begin!"

The first match of the third group finally began.

A serious look instantly appeared on Tang Wulin's face, while Li Weisi raised a hand to summon a beautiful crystal ball.

The crystal ball was completely translucent with red, blue, and azure light flas.h.i.+ng faintly within it.

The three types of lights were intertwining and pulsating in a rhythmic manner, as if they had life forces of their own. Eight soul rings then rose up around Li Weisi, consisting of two yellows, three purples, and three blacks.

His first soul ring lit up, and three-colored light surged out of the crystal ball, then instantly transformed into a dense white mist that permeated in all directions, giving Li Weisi's surroundings a dreamy appearance.

In the blink of an eye, Li Weisi's entire body was completely enshrouded within the dense mist, making it impossible for the spectators to see what soul skills he was unleas.h.i.+ng.

The white mist quickly transformed into a giant tiger, which pounced directly toward Tang Wulin, and Ai Fei immediately offered his commentary. "As we can see here, Li Weisi has unleashed his martial soul and first soul skill from the get-go. This first soul skill of his appears to be one that doesn't possess offensive power, and is designed to confuse the opponent, as well as to protect himself. According to what we already know about Li Weisi, his first soul skill has the ability to keep out his opponent's spiritual power in order to maintain secrecy. 

"From this, we can deduce that he's taking a conservative approach rather than striving for a quick victory, which should be a good strategy. Next, we'll see if Li Weisi will be able to control Yu Longyue and lull Yu Longyue into his rhythm. Under normal circ.u.mstances, I would think that this would be very unlikely, but Yu Longyue looks to be in very bad condition at the moment, so perhaps Li Weisi has some chances.

"Oh no, we have a bit of an issue on our hands; the mist has become too dense for me to see what's happening, and unfortunately, that's going to impact my commentary. The mist is about to spread to Yu Longyue, and as we can see, it's taken on the form of a tiger. Let's see how Yu Longyue is going to counter this attack. Al... alright, so Yu Longyue has been devoured by the tiger formed by the mist. Over two-thirds of the entire compet.i.tion platform has been enshrouded in mist, so I'm temporarily unable to see what's going on."

Ai Fei had no choice but to pause in his commentary as there was simply no way for him to continue! He could only pray that Tang Wulin would unleash a powerful attack to scatter all of the mist on the platform.

Tang Wulin had been appraising Li Weisi as the latter had released this dense mist, and the mist was only a hundred-year soul skill, but just as Ai Fei had said, it was very effective for keeping out spiritual power. Unfortunately for Li Weisi, he was facing an opponent with Spirit Domain realm spiritual power.

Even though Tang Wulin's spiritual power had been severely taxed, this first soul skill wasn't enough to keep it at bay.

The mist tiger was only a figurative jab to test Tang Wulin, so instead of taking evasive measures, Tang Wulin had allowed the mist to completely envelop him. At the same time, a series of soul rings rose up around him, and he intentionally disguised them so that they primarily consisted of purples and blacks.

With the mist surging around him, Tang Wulin decided to close his eyes. Within such dense mist, even his Purple Demon Eyes would be severely hampered, and it wasn't like he needed any visual information anyway.

"Roar roar roar!" Thunderous roars rang out in all directions around him, as if he had suddenly been plunged into a beast tide.

The surrounding mist became denser and denser, but Tang Wulin remained on the spot, allowing the soundwaves to disrupt his hearing and the mist to impact his spiritual judgment.

He actually enjoyed this type of pressure as only in situations like this could he better sense his own instinctive reactions.

He had benefitted immensely from his clash with Yuanen Zhentian the day before; in particular, his understanding of the laws of heaven and earth had reached a higher level.

Even though elemental tribulation lightning was also imbued with the power of laws, that power stemmed from the laws of the universe, and it was too far out of his reach.

In contrast, the laws of this plane suited him the most as he was the Son of Nature who was blessed by the laws of the plane. In particular, the power of the laws of this plane was extremely helpful in his efforts to integrate all of his abilities.

At his level, integration was all about incorporating all of the most powerful attributes of one's abilities into the most effective attacks. Each and every attack of this nature could only be attained through some type of evolution.

Following the events that had transpired the night before, he had meditated for the rest of the entire night, recuperating from his injuries while pondering where his own problems lied.

Due to the existence of his 100,000-year-old soul spirits, he currently had far more than 10 Bluesilver Emperor soul skills. However, as he had continued to progress in his cultivation, these soul skills had become less and less useful in battle, particularly when his style of battle heavily favored the use of pure strength.

In terms of pure control, his Bluesilver Emperor couldn't compare with Xu Xiaoyan's Starwheel Staff. In terms of offensive power, his Bluesilver Emperor wasn't bad, but only when compared to normal Soul Masters. However, what Tang Wulin was striving toward was the level of paramount powerful beings such as the Atlas Douluo, Infernal King Douluo, Boundless Ocean Douluo, Light Dark Douluo, and Heartless Douluo.

As such, his Bluesilver Emperor's offensive power was sorely lacking.

In the past, he had combined his Bluesilver Emperor and Golden Dragon King abilities to create blood soul fusion skills, which had been very effective at the time. 

However, blood soul fusion skills were rather lackl.u.s.ter when it came to facing powerful beings at or above the Hyper Douluo level.

All of the opponents that he currently envisioned facing were Limit Douluos such as Yuanen Zhentian. Even though it appeared that he had withstood three of Yuanen Zhentian's attacks the day before, he knew that Yuanen Zhentian had still held back in the end. If he had faced a full-force attack from a Limit Douluo, he still wouldn't have been able to directly withstand it.

Back when he had faced the Holy Dragon Douluo, En Ci had also held back due to the fact that Tang Wulin was the Tang Sect Master. Otherwise, it would've been very difficult for him to withstand those attacks.

It was exactly due to these reasons that Tang Wulin had to a.s.sess and organize his own abilities. Now that he had become a t.i.tled Douluo, he had to develop powers befitting his cultivation rank.

Tang Wulin was rather dissatisfied with the Douluo t.i.tle that he had thought of for himself. In fact, he had always been of the opinion that he only truly deserved to possess a Douluo t.i.tle after becoming Limit Douluo as only at that level will he be in his final form.

As such, he had to work harder to continue to improve himself.

Laws, Bluesilver Emperor, Golden Dragon King, soul spirits, and divine weapons; those were the main abilities and a.s.sets that he possessed.

How could he combine all of these to create a truly powerful soul skill?

Tang Wulin had pondered this question for an entire night, and his efforts hadn't gone to waste. Under the pressure brought upon him by Yuanen Zhentian, he had finally attained some enlightenment.

Faint golden light rose up from Tang Wulin's body, forcing back the surrounding mist, and a string of faint dragon's roars that resembled rumbling thunderclaps rang out.
