Chapter 1517: Thunder God’s Whip

The fighting capability displayed by Tang Wulin was far more powerful than he had imagined. Tang Wulin was not displaying the fighting capacity of a Title Douluo anymore but of a Hyper Douluo’s! Otherwise, he could not have possibly launched a fatal strike and instantaneously defeated Mu Tian.

It was the Thunder God Whip! Tang Wulin used his arm in place of the Thunder God’s Whip made of the vine. Tang Wulin was feeling slightly numb and sore on his arm from the tremor but he had no choice but to acknowledge that the power of this strike was absolutely terrifying. Had it not been him showing mercy, the black mecha would have already turned into powder by now. The lightning’s explosive force was unleashed perfectly in the Thunder God’s Whip.

The biggest issue at pretending to be Yu Longyue was that there were many soul skills he could not use. This was also the root cause that triggered Tang Wulin into creating more fusion skills.

Tang Wulin had some soul skills related to lighting. He had two to be exact which were the Blue Emperor Forest Lightning Hell and the Blue Emperor Thunder God’s Whip.

These two soul skills were naturally extraordinarily powerful but the issue with these overpowered attacks was that they could easily injure the opponents. Had it not been Tang Wulin’s spiritual power that sublimed once again after developing the Dragon Emperor Forbidden Law such that his ability to control himself had enhanced to a large extent, he dared not use the Thunder God’s Whip earlier. Otherwise, what was he going to do if he accidentally killed Mu Tian?

Judging by the situation now, it seemed like the utilization of Thunder God’s Whip was relatively impressive and this made Tang Wulin feel rather satisfied with himself. He felt that the most important thing for him to do now was to continue enhancing the Thunder God’s Whip so that it could become the most powerful battle method in the latter competitions.

Tang Wulin’s identity was bound by restrictions. However, it may not necessarily be a bad thing when there was a seal on many occasions.

The audiences were silent for a total of over ten seconds before they burst out in an uproar.

Even though the battle was still a very short one, they felt decadent upon witnessing it. An instant defeat was always the most shocking win. It was easy for one to feel his blood boiling after watching Tang Wulin’s incomparably powerful battle method. The majority of the audience members on the scene were young people. They could feel as if their blood had ignited at this very moment. Many people began cheering and calling out Yu Longyue’s name at once.

It was the first time they felt proud of Yu Longyue and this was because he was truly powerful in their eyes.

Lan Fozi looked at Tang Wulin who was still cockily standing on the stage with a slightly complicated gaze as she pouted her lips. “There’s nothing amazing there!”

Qiangu Zhangting’s competition was lined up precisely after Tang Wulin’s. They met one another face to face when Tang Wulin was walking down from the competition stage.

Tang Wulin raised his eyebrows toward Qiangu Zhangting while Qiangu Zhangting replied with a cold smile. “So do you think that that’s enough? I hope that you won’t cry when the day arrives.”

“Heh-heh!” Tang Wulin’s reply provoked the rage of Qiangu Zhangting such that he had a rather stiff countenance on his face. Qiangu Zhangting felt that there was no way he could exchange conversation with Tang Wulin at all.

Tang Wulin did not leave immediately but he stood below the competition stage in preparation to watch Qiangu Zhangting’s competition next. There was no doubt that Qiangu Zhangting could possibly display even more powerful fighting ability in a state of fury.

“The competitions today are truly too exciting. The person before this is already as such and the contestants that are about to join the competition next are two Title Douluos. It is the current generation spiriter of Spirit Pagoda, his excellency Qiangu Zhangting versus his excellency Lu Yuxin with the moniker of Boundless Yellow Sand Paradise Roar that came from Northwest Desert.”

Tang Wulin felt as if something clicked in his mind. He had only come to the realization that Qiangu Zhangting’s opponent today was a Title Douluo too. That was great because he could see Qiangu Zhangting’s ability even better.

Lu Yuxin was a middle-aged man that appeared to be about forty years old. He was still considered a handsome-looking man only that appeared to be slightly older than his real age. He had a tall and huge body with a dark complexion. He had a pair of eyes that exuded a ghastly cold feeling.

Lu Yuxin was seated in a corner when they were at the resting area earlier. He did not speak but he observed the others quietly. He was the type of person that was extremely good at concealing himself.

Judging by their appearances, Qiangu Dongfeng was more superior than he was of course. The audience members were still reminiscing about the battle earlier. However, their attention was also attracted by the two Title Douluos that were about to engage in a battle.

The words ‘Boundless Yellow Sand Paradise Road’ reverberated in Tang Wulin’s mind. According to the information given by Tang Sect, there was very little data on Lu Yuxin and it could even be described as piteously little information. Tang Wulin was only aware that this person came from the Northwest Desert region and had a Title Douluo cultivation base. He was rather lucky during the earlier competitions for not encountering powerhouses. He had a smooth sailing journey all along. Tang Wulin seemed to recall that this person’s martial soul. Sand grains were the embodiment of his attack and defense and it was very difficult to deal with it. This was the evaluation given by Tang Sect.

“Five, four, three, two, one. Begin the competition.”

The competition had officially begun after the referee’s announcement.

On the other hand, Mu Tian whose body was still convulsing and trembling as he coincidentally walked out from the side at this moment. There was a recovery-type soul master that carried out emergency treatment on him after pulling him out of his mecha when the competition ended earlier.

Mu Tian was not injured in an overly severe manner due to Tang Wulin’s intentional act of mercy. Mu Tian was only suffering from intense electrocution and needed a period of time to recuperate.

“Thank you for showing mercy.” Mu Tian nodded towards Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin said, “Your North Tip Saber is impressive with its sharp tip fully exposed. Moreover, you have also put in painstaking efforts. However, there’s something that you must pay attention to. When you make a strike with your North Tip Saber you’re doing it as if you’re calmly looking at death but there’s no Sabersoul. You’re purely using it as a weapon and not treating it as a part of yourself. You’re missing that harmonization and this is the reason why you’re missing the most terrifying part of a Sabersoul. A real Sabersoul is a saber that strikes straight for one’s soul! You’re capable of withstanding forces that are sharper than it but how can you withstand an attack that aims straight for your soul?”

Even though Tang Wulin’s gaze was always fixated upon the competition arena and he had not taken even one glance at Mu Tian, his words shocked Mu Tian’s heart.

“Thank you for your guidance. I’ve always been searching for the source of the problem for my inability to cultivate Sabersoul but I haven’t thought that it’s because of my lack of affinity to my saber?”

Tang Wulin had only turned his head to the side and looked towards Mu Tian. “You’re overly stressed. Anything that is overly rigid bends easily. You’re stressing yourself too much for sure. Even though stress is a form of motivation but at times, being overly stressed means you’re missing out on the opportunity for comprehension. You won’t be able to sublime for sure just by cultivating painstakingly. Look.”

Tang Wulin’s gaze suddenly changed as he talked. It felt as if his entire person had already fused into the air in an instant. Even though Tang Wulin was so close by within his vision, Mu Tian discovered that the person before himself seemed to have disappeared from his sensation.

Then he watched as Tang Wulin’s right hand swept across the air and chopped out!

Not a sound could be heard nor a movement could be seen. However, Mu Tian’s entire person was shocked intensely during that very moment. He could only feel as if his entire person had sunk into the sea of nothingness. When Tang Wulin’s arm swung past him, his sea of spirit spontaneously parted in his spiritual world. Even though it had only lasted for a moment before his sea of spirit fused back once again, that very moment earlier was sufficient to make him feel absolutely terrified.

“Those were the saber’s consciousness, Sabersoul and Sabergod! The saber’s consciousness is the conception of saber’s consciousness while Sabersoul is the real fusion between a man and a saber. It is not one with the saber but it is the fusion of one’s soul and saber,” said Tang Wulin.

“I see. Then, what about Sabergod then?” Mu Tian could not refrain himself from asking.

Tang Wulin spoke with a smile, “As for Sabergod, it is the utilization of saber to guide in heaven and earth law power and that is why it is known as God!”

Mu Tian inhaled a deep breath. There were powerhouses in the military that guided them on their cultivation but there was a vast difference between the military’s guidance and from what Tang Wulin had just explained to him. Tang Wulin’s demonstration earlier felt like a brand new door had opened before himself. It made him feel like there was an itch in his heart that was impossible to scratch.

At the same time, he found himself to be exceedingly shocked. What sort of person was Yu Longyue? If his swinging arm earlier was a saber, then he had obviously achieved the extent of Sabersoul already! So it turned out that he had also cultivated his saber to that extent?

Tang Wulin continued. “How many years have you been enlisted in the army?”
