Tang Wulin explained, "The Lightning G.o.d Whip doesn"t only draw upon my soul power; it draws upon my spiritual power as well. It"s a type of power that lies on the border of s.p.a.ce and time, and it seems to have arisen after the Infernal Lightning Vine reached the 100,000-year level. Even I haven"t completely figured it out yet, so I"ll need more time to experience it, but I can sense it"s imbued with a special type of power of laws, almost as if the Lightning G.o.d Whip contains its own unique domain."

Xie Xie"s lips twitched upon hearing this. "I"m never watching you cultivate again; it"s way too dangerous! I have to work hard to make a breakthrough as well!"

For some reason, after being struck by that Lightning G.o.d Whip, he had attained a greater understanding of the laws of his s.p.a.ce Time Dragon, and he seemed to be closer to reaching rank 80 now.

The six plant-system Great Beasts within Tang Wulin"s body were the Beautiful Silk Tulip, the Delicate Inferno Apricot Flower, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Gra.s.s, the Blackjade Divine Bamboo, the Keen Gaze Dew, and the Land Dragon Golden Melon.

Recently, Yuanen Yehui, Ye Xinglan, and Yue Zhengyu had completed their Soul Douluo breakthroughs and fused with an immortal plant each to attain a 100,000-year-old soul spirit. Yuanen Yehui had chosen the Land Dragon Golden Melon, attaining two soul skills, as well as greater strength and defensive prowess.

Ye Xinglan had chosen the Blackjade Divine Bamboo and Yue Zhengyu chose the Delicate Inferno Apricot Flower. As for Xu Lizhi, he had already consumed an immortal plant, and he was a food-system Soul Master, so he wasn"t going to take any of the other immortal plants. Thus, the only immortal plants that remained were the Keen Gaze Dew and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Gra.s.s, the former of which had been a.s.signed to Xie Xie, while the latter was a.s.signed to Xu Xiaoyan.

Xu Xiaoyan"s martial soul was the Starwheel Ice Staff. She had always been using the power of stars, but the power of ice within her martial soul was not to be neglected, either. As such, she was very eager to fuse with the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Gra.s.s to see if her martial soul would undergo a mutation.

For Xie Xie, not only could the Keen Gaze Dew directly raise his Purple Demon Eyes to the highest level, it would also improve his learning ability. His s.p.a.ce Time Dragon martial soul was the most difficult to cultivate, and that was why he still hadn"t reached the Soul Douluo level. The higher his cultivation rank, the more understanding and enlightenment he required to make further progress.

Tang Wulin said, "We have some time on our hands, so why don"t you attack me so I can gauge your current level of power? Perhaps that"ll help you."

Xie Xie"s eyes immediately lit up. "So you"re only going to defend without retaliation?"

Tang Wulin rolled his eyes in response. "You"re such a coward! Fine, are you in?"

"I"m in!" Xie Xie replied without any hesitation.

He was unwilling to spar with Tang Wulin as he was afraid of being abused, but if Tang Wulin was only going to defend, then everything was different.

"Count me in as well!" Yue Zhengyu also flew over to them with excitement in his eyes.

"Sure," Tang Wulin replied.

Even though Xie Xie and Yue Zhengyu were constantly bickering with one another, they had fought alongside each other on more occasions than they had battled even with Tang Wulin, so they were a very effective pair.

Dazzling golden light erupted from Yue Zhengyu"s body, and the light shot forth directly toward Tang Wulin like a golden cannonball.

A layer of golden scales immediately surfaced over Tang Wulin"s skin as he unleashed his Golden Dragon Body, and he raised his hands to oppose the ball of golden light.

"Boom!" The dazzling golden light exploded, but instead of fading away, it converged toward Tang Wulin from all sides like a ma.s.sive mouth.

The scorching heat being released was filled with the power of light and fire, and this was a clear result of an evolution in Yue Zhengyu"s martial soul after he had become a Soul Douluo and fused with the Delicate Inferno Apricot Flower.

Tang Wulin immediately unleashed his Golden Dragon Tyrant Body in response, yet right at this moment, a faint streak of light appeared out of thin air before slas.h.i.+ng toward the back of his neck without any warning.

A sense of peril instantly spread through his entire body, and he instinctively dove forward as countless Bluesilver Emperor vines erupted out of his back, making him resemble a porcupine.

"Ding!" The light behind him suddenly warped, and the streaks of light abruptly accelerated by twofold, allowing it to reach Tang Wulin"s neck before the Bluesilver Emperor vines had completely erupted out of his body.

However, just as the blade was about to come into contact with Tang Wulin, it suddenly returned to where it had been a second ago, and even the golden flames that had swept over his body retreated slightly.

This was his Time Reversal domain!

Almost at the exact same moment, over 100 streaks of light appeared in all directions at once, then instantly slashed toward him from all sides.

What was even more startling was that the speeds of these streaks of light were constantly changing, making them completely unpredictable.

Tang Wulin"s expression changed slightly as he instantly increased the power output of his Time Reversal domain, causing all of the oncoming attacks to decelerate slightly. At the same time, a threw a punch into the air up ahead, and a small black hole was punched into s.p.a.ce amid a resounding boom.

A burst of powerful suction force erupted out of the black hole, and as a result, the oncoming blades were slowed down even further. Tang Wulin then spread his Golden Dragon King wings and revolved on the spot like a tornado. At the same time, he rose up into the air to clash with the descending Yue Zhengyu.

Another resounding boom rang out, and Tang Wulin"s entire body tremored as he was forced to descend from above. The fact that he was only able to defend limited his powers to only around the Soul Douluo level, and he had been forced onto the back foot.

A streak of reddish-golden light then reached him immediately thereafter before slamming viciously into his body, turning all of his scales a reddish-golden color and causing him to plummet directly toward the sea. Despite this, he was only getting more fired up.

Streaks of light began to appear once again, and they began to rain down from above like a torrential storm. Some of the streaks of light were normal, while others were imbued with a peerlessly sharp aura, but what was really strange was that this sharpness seemed to both exist and not exist at the same time. He felt like if he were to ignore it, then the sharpness would become reality, but if he were to defend himself against it, it would instantly turn into an illusion. This was a very peculiar attack, and one that was extremely difficult to deal with.

Tang Wulin praised Xie Xie internally as he withdrew all of the Bluesilver Emperor vines that he had released earlier, and they all began to revolve around him as his seventh soul ring lit up. This was his Bluesilver Emperor True Body!

A layer of blue light appeared over his entire body, and it was as if he had become completely translucent. Meanwhile, every single Bluesilver Emperor vine around him dispersed in all directions as if they had a mind of their own.

Regardless of whether the streaks of light were moving quickly or slowly or whether they were illusionary or substantial, all of them were met by a Bluesilver Emperor vine.

Yue Zhengyu descended once again, and reddish-golden flames burned all over his body as he spread his four wings to absorb the light elements in the air. However, before him stood a ma.s.sive s.h.i.+eld of interwoven Bluesilver Emperor vines.

Meanwhile, Xie Xie was phasing in and out of s.p.a.ce, unleas.h.i.+ng a series of peerlessly sharp attacks, acting as the perfect foil to Yue Zhengyu"s direct and aggressive a.s.sault.

However, Tang Wulin was always able to use his Bluesilver Emperor True Body to withstand their attacks at just the right moment.
