Douluo: Unparalleled General, Starting by Deceptive Thousand-Snow-Peak 57

Chapter 57: Nine-Heart Sea Lantern VS Healing Staff

“Boom!”

With a loud explosion, the Round Fusion Golden Shield finally couldn’t withstand Nan Feihuang’s Sky-Splitting Halberd and shattered.

Although Nan Feihuang couldn’t yet unleash the full power of his Sky-Splitting Halberd, an Innate God-level Martial Soul, it was far beyond what an ordinary shield, a mid-level Martial Soul, could compare to.

The halberd swept across, a powerful gust of wind instantly knocking the two Soul Sages on the opposite side back to the edge of the arena, barely maintaining their footing.

If their Soul Power wasn’t far superior to Nan Feihuang’s, they would have probably fallen.

“This guy, his attack power is too strong for a Great Soul Master,” 柳二龙 (Liu Erlong) frowned on the viewing platform. As someone from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, she had some say in matters of attack power.

But Nan Feihuang’s current attack power far exceeded that of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon of the same level. Even Sword Douluo Chenxin, who currently holds the title of the continent’s number one attack Douluo, it’s questionable whether he possessed such attack power during his Great Soul Master stage, capable of instantly crushing two Soul Sages.

“And this guy, he doesn’t seem to be using his full strength. Why is he always using a one-handed halberd?” Liu Erlong’s other question was about Nan Feihuang’s Martial Soul being a long halberd, not a short one.

Such a Martial Soul should be wielded with both hands. Using one hand is greatly inferior in terms of power and the precision of techniques.

It can be said that Nan Feihuang’s currently displayed strength was far from his full potential. If he used both hands, while not necessarily doubling his strength, each move would at least increase his power by 40%, and his attack speed would also increase.

Liu Erlong couldn’t help but suspect that either Nan Feihuang simply didn’t know how to use a halberd with both hands, or that one of his hands was crippled.

The actual situation, of course, didn’t fall into either of these categories. Nan Feihuang’s hands were perfectly fine, and someone skilled in the “Eighteen Single-Handed Techniques” couldn’t possibly not know how to use a halberd with both hands. But Nan Feihuang did so for his future.

His full future strength would have to rely on wielding the halberd with one hand, so he had to get used to it now; he would use only one hand if possible.

Being slightly weaker temporarily was fine; even without his full power, ordinary people wouldn’t be his match.

“Third Soul Skill, Soul-Locking Chain!” At this moment, the Soul Sage with the chain Martial Soul suddenly attacked, the slender chain lashing towards Nan Feihuang.

And it was directly his third Soul Skill, a thousand-year Soul Skill.

As a control-type Soul Master, he had witnessed Nan Feihuang’s attack power in the previous fights. He understood that ordinary control skills probably couldn’t restrain him, so he could only use his full strength for a sliver of a chance.

But Nan Feihuang wasn’t alone. A snake tail whipped out from behind him, wrapping around the chain.

“Don’t underestimate my Azure Scale Snake. I’m our team’s control-type Soul Master, even without using poison, I have my own ways of controlling things,” Du Gu Yan laughed.

Her snake tail possessed the same ability as the chain – binding, entanglement, or rescuing teammates.

“Good job, Feihuang, Yan’er, now watch me.” Yu Tianheng charged towards the center of the opponent’s team. His initial target was the opponent’s healing-type Soul Master, Jiang Zhu.

Targeting the support first in a team battle is common sense.

“First Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Claw!” Yu Tianheng struck out with a palm. With the other three Soul Sages entangled by Nan Feihuang and Du Gu Yan, he was unstoppable.

The power of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon wasn’t only reflected in its Martial Soul, but also in its Soul Rings.

A major peculiarity of this Martial Soul is the extremely high requirements for Soul Rings; they must come from dragon or sub-dragon species soul beasts. While this requirement is high, increasing the difficulty for Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Masters in hunting soul beasts, it also means they obtain exceptionally powerful Soul Rings.

A top-tier Martial Soul paired with the best Soul Rings makes Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Masters consistently among the best in attack power at their level.

Even if it was only the first Soul Skill, Yu Tianheng’s palm sent Tai Long, Jing Ling, and Huang Yuan into a joint defense.

Even with three against one, Yu Tianheng still knocked two of them flying with a single palm; only Tai Long, relying on the innate strength of the Strength Clan, managed to barely withstand it.

“Haha, worthy of being the heir of the Strength Clan. Your strength truly lives up to its reputation, not inferior to a Soul Sage, unfortunately, that’s all you have!” Yu Tianheng proudly declared.

What good is the Great Ape’s strength surpassing the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon if other aspects are far inferior? Speed, defense, and the domineering, majestic thunder power are all incomparable to the Great Ape.

Ultimately, this is just one of the subordinate sects under the Haotian Sect, while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is as famous as the Haotian Hammer.

The electric power passed through his palm into Tai Long’s body. Tai Long felt his entire body ravaged by lightning, agonizing pain.

The few people in what should be a tactical battle fought as if it were a death match, each attacking without defending, because they were confident in the support behind them.

The Healing Staff’s healing formation and the sea of falling sea lantern petals occupied half of the Douluo arena each.

On the ground of the arena, streaks of emerald green light merged into Tai Long and the others, while the sky seemed to rain flowers, petals from the Nine-Heart Sea Lantern – the greatest confidence for Nan Feihuang and Yu Tianheng as they charged into the enemy’s ranks.

“My god, the emerald green formation, and the sea of sea lantern flowers. This Douluo battle is so beautiful!”

“Yeah, the close-quarters combat of the few people on the field, attacking without defending, is also incredibly exciting.”

The audience roared with cheers. Such a dazzling display of Soul Skills greatly satisfied the spectators. They didn’t understand the intricacies, they only knew it looked good, and their tickets were worth it.

The situation quickly tilted.

The Blue Lightning Academy team’s recovery speed clearly couldn’t keep up with Nan Feihuang and Yu Tianheng.

Often, just as Tai Long and the others stopped their bleeding, Yu Tianheng’s wounds were already healed.

“It seems that the Healing Staff’s healing ability is still far inferior to the Nine-Heart Sea Lantern,” Liu Erlong murmured. “According to the tactics Master once taught me, we should target their rear now. Tai Long’s Strength Clan’s greatest advantage is in delaying and withstanding!”

Liu Erlong was following the theories Master had taught her, just as she had arranged before the battle. At this moment, Tai Long suddenly charged forward, wrapping Yu Tianheng in a bear hug, his immense strength seemingly intending to crush his body.

But by doing so, Tai Long would directly face the full force of Yu Tianheng’s thunder power.

“Heh, naive fool, do you think this desperate tactic will work?” Yu Tianheng suddenly exerted his strength, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon let out a dragon roar, the crackling of lightning echoing throughout the arena.

Tai Long let out a pained roar.

Everyone understood. This guy couldn’t restrain Yu Tianheng; his attempt to crush Yu Tianheng’s body was a futile fantasy, his own body would ultimately be blasted to smithereens by the lightning.
