Chapter 579: The Limit
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
During the battle, the duo exchanged attacks. On several occasions, w.a.n.g Baole was in the lead, and on the other, Dugu Lin was leading. Until now, with this suppressive force that appeared suddenly, w.a.n.g Baole leaped into the air and charged towards Dugu Lin, unleas.h.i.+ng his force once again!
He was so fast that it was as if he was pa.s.sing through the emptiness. When he emerged, he unleashed his Dark Core, and instantly, a Dark Fire emerged from his body, forming a sea of fire outside his body!
This sea of fire was black in color. It didn’t give off a high temperature but a chill that seemed to be able to seal everything. Crackling sounds were produced continuously, as if the ground, the firmament, and the s.p.a.ce between the two of them were instantly frozen!
Immediately, Dugu Lin’s trembling mind and his messy cultivation were thrown into further chaos by the Dark Fire. Fresh blood spewed from his mouth once again, and controlling his body, he retreated and widened the distance between him and w.a.n.g Baole. However, w.a.n.g Baole continued to pick up speed and didn’t stop in his tracks. As the Dark Fire was unleashed, he raised his right hand, and a look of ferocity flashed across his eyes as he chanted two words in his heart!
Soul Guidance!
Dark Art Soul Guidance!
Instantly, a huge blurry hand extended from w.a.n.g Baole’s chest, as if struggling from h.e.l.l. When it appeared, the surrounding Dark Fire was instantly drawn to it. It seemed as if strong winds were blowing, not to extinguish the Dark Fire but to boost it!
The next moment, the Dark Fire burned with greater intensity, spreading in all directions. As the Soul Guiding Hand emerged, the Dark Fire was being drawn in, forming a gigantic hand that was thousands of feet wide!
Even though the gigantic hand was somewhat blurry, it carried an aura that made Dugu Lin tremble in shock. w.a.n.g Baole’s attacks were unantic.i.p.ated and extremely vicious. From afar, the combination of the Dark Fire and Soul Guidance, which formed the gigantic hand, was now carrying an imposing force from w.a.n.g Baole’s body, grabbing towards Dugu Lin as it neared him!
At this crucial juncture, Dugu Lin didn’t have time to consider too much. The strong sense of life-and-death crisis caused the pale golden glow in his eyes to be replaced by a blood-red color. When the Soul Guiding Hand approached, Dugu Lin exclaimed loudly!
“The second seal is to be opened for the time of ten breaths!”
When Dugu Lin said those words, a force that seemed to have acc.u.mulated in his body for a long time was instantly unleashed. It was a ferocious force, ten times more powerful than what he had unleashed previously. As he rose up, Dugu Lin seemed to have been transformed into the sea, his force turning into a vortex that then created a hurricane and tornado that swept in all directions!
Loud booms reverberated between the heavens and earth. The hurricane grew bigger, spreading a distance of a thousand feet and was extremely imposing!
w.a.n.g Baole’s Soul Guiding Hand vibrated, and it couldn’t continue grabbing as it began to be destroyed. A strong sense of crisis arose in w.a.n.g Baole’s mind. He didn’t hesitate and retreated immediately.
As he retreated, w.a.n.g Baole could finally see that in the middle of the thousand-foot-wide hurricane, while the figure that rose into the sky was still Dugu Lin, something was different!
His hair was flying in the wind, and it was no longer a pale gold color in his eyes. Instead, it was a rich gold color that was spreading throughout his body, making his entire body s.h.i.+mmer with a golden glow. A suppressive force that was growing increasingly stronger by the moment was spreading, and he was like a combat G.o.d!
However, that wasn’t what shocked w.a.n.g Baole. What really made him gasp in shock was that Dugu Lin, who was glowing with a golden glow, caused the extremely powerful force that was ten times what he had unleashed previously, as well as the thousand-foot-wide hurricane, to disappear the moment he raised his right hand!
It was completely retracted and vanished entirely. It was as if he were standing in mid-air but didn’t give off an aura. In w.a.n.g Baole’s Spiritual Sense, there was no trace of it ever existing!
This instantly made w.a.n.g Baole hold his breath. A sense of crisis that was several times what he had experienced before exploded in him. Vaguely, it felt like all the cells in his body were trembling, telling him to avoid the person before him!
Similarly, the surrounding spectators, including the Dao Palace cultivators outside, were also shocked. However, even before their shock could be translated into sound, Dugu Lin moved!
Unlike previously, he didn’t open his mouth to speak. Instead, he stepped out in silence, and as w.a.n.g Baole was gripped with shock and wanted to avoid him, Dugu Lin appeared before w.a.n.g Baole!
Very simply, a punch landed on him!
Visually, this punch seemed like nothing compared to the Nine Dragon Punch. However, it felt ten times more dangerous to w.a.n.g Baole. He was unable to avoid it. It was as if he had been frozen, and as if this punch was fated to land on him!
This was because Dugu Lin, who had unlocked the second seal, had a combat power that completely suppressed w.a.n.g Baole’s physical body, focus, cultivation, and force!
w.a.n.g Baole only managed to raise the right hand of the Flame s.n.a.t.c.h Thearch Armor to resist the attack. Both the collective force and the boost from Thearch Armor were unleashed at this moment. However, in the next instance, when Dugu Lin’s fist landed, w.a.n.g Baole trembled vigorously. It was as if a cruiser traveling at high speed had collided with him. Amidst the loud boom, the right hand of Thearch Armor was destroyed!
Fresh blood spewed out of his mouth, and w.a.n.g Baole leveraged on the force to retreat. However, even before he could take more steps back, the silent Dugu Lin neared him and landed the second punch!
This time, it landed on w.a.n.g Baole’s Thearch Armor’s chest. Crackling sounds reverberated in all directions as w.a.n.g Baole’s Thearch Armor was destroyed and broken into pieces. Dugu Lin’s third punch landed on w.a.n.g Baole’s chest that was exposed by the broken Thearch Armor without hesitation!
It was so powerful that w.a.n.g Baole could only see his vision darken. As he vomited blood, his body seemed to have lost all form of control and was forced to retreat by the punch. He was like a kite that had been detached from its string as he landed on the twin peaks, specifically, the peak that represented him!
Amidst the loud boom, the mountain began to crack apart and crumble. Numerous broken rocks were formed, and w.a.n.g Baole, who was laying there, was in a semiconscious state as blood continued to flow out continuously from his mouth. Dugu Lin’s attack didn’t end there!
Dugu Lin approached and punched him once again!
This punch was not targeted at w.a.n.g Baole but on the ground beside him. The rocks were turned into ash, and the ground shook, resulting in a ricochet whose force landed on w.a.n.g Baole’s body. It caused his body to jump up from the ground, towards the night sky!
After that, Dugu Lin leaped up and caught up with w.a.n.g Baole. His body appeared above w.a.n.g Baole. He was expressionless as he lowered his head and looked at w.a.n.g Baole with a chill in his eyes, before landing the fifth punch on him!
That punch was even more powerful, especially when complemented with his astonis.h.i.+ng speed. It formed a suppressive force that harnessed the Heaven and Earth powers, and when it landed, w.a.n.g Baole’s Thearch Armor was entirely destroyed. With an even greater speed, his body landed on the ground, forming a large basin-shaped depression in the ground!
Fresh blood no longer spewed out just from w.a.n.g Baole’s mouth but from everywhere on his body. He was almost unconscious. Dugu Lin, who had unlocked the second seal, was so powerful that it was beyond imagination. Even a Nascent Soul realm cultivator would be extremely frightened and shocked by it.
However, w.a.n.g Baole didn’t give up. The green lotus turned maniacal as it endlessly repaired his body. w.a.n.g Baole opened his eyes while gasping, looking at Dugu Lin, who was in mid-air.
“w.a.n.g Baole!” Dugu Lin lowered his head and didn’t show a trace of emotion in his eyes as he looked calmly at w.a.n.g Baole, who was struggling to stand up on the ground.
“Next is my sixth punch, which is also the peak of my force. I advise you to concede defeat, as if you choose to persevere, you would die without a doubt. However, it is also possible that between the state of life and death, you would unleash your full potential!”
“I have witnessed a similar scenario previously, and it all depends on your fate!” With that, Dugu Lin raised his right hand and grabbed. Instantly, a scream emerged from behind him. A giant ape first transmogrified, followed by a nine-headed black dragon, then the vermillion bird and the Kun Peng. The figures of the four beasts took up the entire sky, enveloping Dugu Lin before interweaving with each other and transforming into a large illusory fist. They each screamed and intertwined with each other!
Looking at everything from a distance, the fist was like the firmament, extremely imposing, as if harnessing the Heavenly Tribulation and charging towards w.a.n.g Baole!
The ten breaths ended!
