Chapter 1490: Blue Emperor Forest Lightning Hell

Tang Wulin thought that he would have been surprised by this if it had happened a few days ago. However, after his experience with the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, he had the feeling that this summoning was related to it! Soul beasts had not truly gone extinct for there was at least a few of them living in that small plane where the Ten Thousand Beast Platform was located. There were also powerhouses among the soul beasts. If these soul beasts were considering being raised in captivity by the Spirit Pagoda, then the Spirit Pagoda would be exceedingly powerful.

Three beams of light flashed, and in a split second, the three giant wolves summoned earlier all transformed into black light and fused with the array. A giant wolf, over thirty meters in length, had come out from the array with a valiant howl.

The massive wolf had glossy black fur, but every strand of hair on its body had a crystal-like texture. Its enormous body lowered ever so slightly as it unleashed an incredibly tyrannical aura. There were even black halos spreading out from underneath its feet. As the halos spread outward, they left behind patches of demonic striations on the ground.

It was a domain! The one-hundred-thousand-year Wolf Emperor had its own domain, so it was more powerful than an ordinary one-hundred-thousand-year soul beast.

It made the audience feel even more concerned that the square competition arena was only one hundred meters in width and length due to the limitation of the land. The appearance of a giant wolf over thirty meters in length immediately made the entire arena seem narrow, leaving little space to maneuver.

Could it be that another Title Douluo-ranked powerhouse was about to fail once again? The crowd watched the scene in bewilderment, while the young master of the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan displayed an arrogant look on his face.

What was the point of being arrogant at this point? Was this the manner to prepare for death?

Ao Wuchang had been standing on the giant wolf’s head since it first emerged from the array at his feet. He stood upon the one-hundred-year Wolf Emperor while eight pitch black soul rings shimmered on his body, giving him a powerful aura. He looked down at Tang Wulin as a dash of arrogance flashed past his eyes.

‘Since you’re so conceited, you shall die!’

‘Aroo!” The Wolf Emperor opened its mouth and howled. Every strand of fur on its body stood up like spears of black crystal. With a flash, it pounced at Tang Wulin.

It appeared to be a simple forward pounce but due to the spatial restriction, Tang Wulin did not have much space to dodge.

The black domain underneath the Wolf Emperor’s feet continued growing and spread a black radiance around them. Runes as black as ink intertwined toward Tang Wulin.

It was the Haunting Spirit! All the living creatures killed by the Wolf Emperor transformed into a part of his domain that haunted the enemy. It was a powerful ability that attacked the opponent’s body and spirit soul simultaneously. It was impossible to defend effectively.

“Roar!” Meanwhile, a dragon’s roar suddenly came out of Tang Wulin’s mouth, clear and roused. At the same time, streams of clear blue electric light bloomed out from the surface of his body and transformed into a layer of blue-gold radiance.

The Wolf Emperor’s figure paused for a moment in midair. It was even more peculiar that the Wolf Emperor’s Haunting Spirit seemed to be attacked by some formless object following the appearance of the lightning’s glow. It diffused into the surroundings naturally akin to snow melting into water.

Tang Wulin took a step forward with his left foot and swung his right fist.

Glowing electricity coiled around his arm. Soon after, streams of lightning burst forth from his body like an oil blowout.

Every stream of lightning bloomed outward looking like solid forms, akin to giant pythons. Those avenging spirits that did not manage to dodge in time would immediately scream out in agony upon coming into contact with the lightning. They were completely destroyed, going back into the black growth.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Under the close attention of the astonished crowd, the terrifying lightning covered the entire arena almost instantly. That was right. The square competition stage a hundred meters in length was filled with so much lightning that it felt like the powerful protective shield was breaking down. It was completely dyed with that blue-purple color.

Both the one-hundred-thousand-year Wolf Emperor and Ao Wuchang were completely submerged in the terrifying lightning storm, blocking them from view entirely.

It was like a ghastly lightning world. Even the nine surrounding competition stages were illuminated by the lightning, making the rest of the contestants shift their gaze towards it.

‘Oh god! What happened?’

Watching the scene from the main platform, Qiangu Zhangting could not maintain his composure anymore. He leapt up abruptly and looked to the competition arena with a burning gaze. The expression on his face turned peculiar.

He understood the strength of the protective shield better than anyone else. How large was the surface area of a one hundred meter side length square? It was a total of ten thousand square meters. Even so, the entire space was already completely covered without leaving the slightest gap.

Qiangu Zhangting was still feeling excited over the show one moment ago yet he felt as if there was a coldness that erupted from his back at the very moment. Even though the boy that came from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan appeared to be so arrogant, it seemed like he deserved such an ego!

These were truly very powerful abilities. It was hard to believe. How much soul power was consumed in order to launch an attack of this scale? What was the extent of its attacking ability?

Could the one hundred-thousand-year Wolf Emperor withstand that?

It was the Blue Emperor Forest Lightning Hell!

The lightning stopped gradually and the audience could finally see the situation on the competition stage.

The Wolf Emperor was still there for it had not been destroyed in the lightning. When its massive silhouette was revealed in the lightning, both the audience and the participants could not help feeling relieved. However, their expressions soon changed.

This was because the massive Wolf Emperor was still crouching on the ground but not in its previous graceful state. Someone remained standing on the Wolf Emperor’s body, but it was no longer Ao Wuchang. It was Tang Wulin.

Ao Wuchang was already lying limp on the ground. His body convulsed continuously in pain. This was because his entire body was charred black. Had it not been for the smoke puffing out from his body, it was truly difficult to distinguish him.

The gigantic Wolf Emperor was also convulsing in a similar manner. Its head was hidden in its arms while being clutched by its pair of wolf claws. The Wolf Emperor that appeared incomparably majestic earlier had a foolishly adorable look to it in the end.

This was truly…

The audience’s lips were twitching involuntarily. At once, every person in the crowd had a peculiar expression on their faces.

Tang Wulin clasped his hands behind his back and acted as if nothing had happened. He got down from the Wolf Emperor’s back as if he was taking a leisurely stroll and walked toward the competition stage.

The competition ended with Yu Longyue as the victor.

In this competition, the foreplay lasted far longer than the real competition. Ao Wuchang’s Summoning Door martial would, which appeared incomparably powerful earlier, looked like a joke afterward. No matter how eager he was in the beginning, he still ended up with instant kill in the end. The transformation involved in this process was truly ironic.

Gu Yuena took a glance at Qiangu Zhangting frowning deeply. “Do you still think that he is easy to deal with? It seems like his martial soul has not undergone Light Holy Dragon’s second awakening, but this is something else. He fully understands the power of lightning. The lightning is formed from the condensation of vital energy. It’s not unusual for the lightning to destroy the Wolf Emperor’s Haunting Spirit, but he is capable of using just one domain-coverage soul skill to suppress the Wolf Emperor completely till there was no way it could resist. The lightning’s power is extraordinary.”

Qiangu Zhangting nodded. He was neither foolish nor incompetent, so he would not truly look down on an opponent. The abilities displayed by Yu Longyue earlier were already enough to shock him.

“I’m going to take a look at the data so I can check out the extent of the outburst he had earlier.” Qiangu Zhangting left in a rush upon saying that.

Gu Yuena shifted her gaze back toward the coliseum once again. However, her large pair of eyes had already lost their focus.

Tang Wulin recalled the match as he walked.

Ao Wuchang’s failure was destined. With Tang Wulin’s abilities, even an ordinary Hyper Douluo was not necessarily a worthy opponent for him, let alone an eight-ringed soul master.

As for the Wolf Emperor, a one-hundred-thousand-year soul beast was powerful, but one would need to consider which type of soul beast it was. The Wolf Emperor was considered a rather ordinary type of one-hundred-thousand-year soul beast. Indeed, its domain was suppressed by Tang Wulin’s Lightning Hell’s vines at once, to the point that there was no way it could utilize its power. Moreover, the dragon’s roar given out by Tang Wulin earlier was not only for elevating his aura but also to unleash the Dragon Might.

Before the Golden Dragon King’s Dragon Might, its bloodline suppressed the Wolf Emperor, making it drop by a few ranks. The Blue Emperor Forest Lightning Hell was already being merciful. Otherwise, the giant one-hundred-thousand-year wolf would have ended up with severe injuries.

‘Hmm, after sparring against the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Oxpython, my understanding of lightning seems to have improved further. It will be even better if I can utilize the strength of the Lighting Hell’s vines. Of course, there’s still something else that I need to improve. It’s precisely the grinding works.”

Tang Wulin had already analyzed his abilities by this point. However, it was even more important for him to continue the fusion process.
