Douluo: I am an evil soul master, working from nine to five in the Tang Sect

Chapter 77 Gap
"You have good momentum, but Lao Tai, you haven't really started yet, don't give me face, just go all out."

Feeling the terrifying power that suddenly erupted from Tai'an in front of him, Luo Chen nodded silently and spoke to him.

Although Tai'an is very strong now, so strong that few people in the entire outer courtyard can contend with him, it is still a little unrealistic for him to fight against Luo Chen, whose physical fitness and mental strength have reached the level of a five-ring soul king.

At this moment, facing Taian who had already released his martial spirit and was going all out, Luo Chen didn't even blink, just stood there, as if waiting for Taian to make a move.

When Tai'an saw this, he did not hesitate. The two soul rings surrounding him lit up at the same time. His body, which was originally like a humanoid soul beast, expanded again at this moment, becoming more than two meters long, more than a head taller than Luo Chen in front of him!

As its body expanded extremely rapidly, the oppressive feeling emanating from it, which came from the wild beast, was fully revealed at this moment, causing the middle-aged man standing at the edge of the venue to watch with a look of surprise and doubt.

Even though the middle-aged man had been a referee in this fighting arena for a long time and had witnessed countless talented students from Shrek Academy, this was the first time he had encountered a student like the one in front of him who could bring him pressure at the second ring level.

This oppressive feeling, as if being stared at by some ferocious beast, made even a seven-ringed Soul Saint like him feel a little uneasy. The soul power in his body could not help but surge out. At this level, he could no longer be considered a two-ringed Great Soul Master.

At least in the eyes of the middle-aged man, this is not a strength that a second-ring freshman can possess.

"Second soul skill, Titan's Grip!"

As Tai'an unleashed his full soul power, the purple thousand-year soul ring floating beside him suddenly flickered at this moment.

At the moment when the faint purple light appeared, its huge body changed again, but this time it was not the body shape that changed, but a new pair of arms extended from under its sturdy arms!
"Ok?"

Seeing that Tai'an released a thousand-year soul skill, which actually extended a pair of arms from his own ribs, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel a little confused.

It’s just an extra pair of arms. Can this be considered a thousand-year soul skill?
But the next moment, as Tai'an's newly appeared arms swung slightly, an invisible energy wave suddenly emerged in front of him, causing the surrounding airflow to change at this moment.

"Is it a charging skill?"

Luo Chen, who had extremely sharp perceptions, could naturally sense the increasingly powerful energy fluctuations gathering in front of Tai'an. However, it was not just a kind of energy, it was more like the surrounding aura was condensed together, thus creating an air vortex.

In Luo Chen's perception, Tai'an, who was gathering strength in front of him, had his aura within a five-meter radius constantly converging in front of him, so that the air in this closed fighting arena seemed to be a little thin at this moment.

"Hey, Chenzi, you better be careful. I don't even know how powerful this attack is. But I guess if it's just a three-ring soul master, it's impossible for him to take my attack head-on!"

After about three seconds, Taian finally pushed the power of this attack to its peak. His four arms were struggling to control the terrifying airflow in front of him that was about to get out of his control!
However, facing Taian's words, Luo Chen smiled indifferently. To be honest, the power of Taian's move did surprise him. It could change the aura and greatly compress the surrounding air, thus condensing it into an air cannon similar to a triggered cannon shell.

Even a Soul Master of the Strong Attack System might find it difficult to block such power, and even if he managed to dodge it successfully by relying on his own speed, he would inevitably be affected by the burst of airflow.

However, in Luo Chen's eyes, although the power of this air cannon is very strong and can cause effective damage to most Soul Masters, it is just that. For him, whose attributes in all aspects have reached the Soul King level, it is just a tickle.

Out of respect for Tai'an's thousand-year soul skill, Luo Chen put away his initial carelessness and released his own martial soul.

However, at the moment when the blood-red sickle appeared in Luo Chen's palm, the surrounding aura changed again. The airflow that should have gathered in front of Tai'an actually showed signs of separation.

Suddenly, a force of attraction that was even more powerful than Tai'an's thousand-year soul skill appeared at this moment, and the source of this attraction was Luo Chen, who had maximized his ability to absorb life!

The moment Luo Chen released his martial spirit, the aura of death that came with the Scythe of Death rose into the sky, clearing out everything on the field, and even the temperature around him gradually cooled down.

However, this is not the end. On the blood-colored sickle, three soul rings that also exude the aura of death are emerging one by one, and the color of each one is extremely bright and dazzling.

The first two that appeared were purple, the same color as the soul ring in front of Taian, and following closely behind was a deep black soul ring with traces of blood-red stripes!
A thorough ten thousand year soul ring!

The moment Luo Chen released his martial spirit, not to mention Tai'an in front of him, even the middle-aged man outside the field who was ready to take action at any time, stood there like a fool, with dull and puzzled expressions in their eyes.

If he could understand that Taian's second soul ring was at the thousand-year level at the beginning, then at this moment, facing Luo Chen's soul ring configuration that did not make any sense at all, he could not find any reasonable explanation.

"Two thousand-year spirit rings and... one ten-thousand-year spirit ring?"

Looking at the three soul rings lingering around Luo Chen, there was no other expression in the middle-aged man's eyes except confusion and puzzlement.

As the referee of the fighting spirit arena, he still had some impression of Luo Chen's original spirit ring configuration. It should have been two yellow hundred-year spirit rings, but only one day had passed, and they had turned into two thousand-year spirit rings and a ten-thousand-year spirit ring?

Even if he racked his brains, he could not imagine how Luo Chen did it. Just by breaking through the three-ring soul master level, he was able to directly cross two major realms and absorb the ten thousand year soul ring that usually only the five-ring soul king could possess!

He even upgraded the two hundred-year spirit rings at the beginning to the thousand-year level, and even started with a thousand-year spirit ring! As a graduate of Shrek Academy, he naturally knew that there were many monster students in Shrek Academy whose talents were beyond the world's cognition, and he had seen many such students.

However, when it comes to being able to change the age of the spirit rings previously absorbed after breaking through a realm, no one can do it. The age of the spirit rings that have already been absorbed cannot be changed. This is common sense that every spirit master knows.

However, at this moment, there appeared in front of him a monster who was powerful enough to subvert the entire soul master world!

Before the middle-aged man could react, Tai'an in front of him came back to his senses first. He knew the age of Luo Chen's soul ring from the beginning. The reason why he was stunned at this moment was simply because the aura of the ten thousand year soul ring was beyond his imagination.

"Ah!"

Seeing that Luo Chen was ready, Tai'an no longer maintained the air cannon that had been condensed in his hand. After a light breath, all the soul power in his body was mobilized in an instant. With his four sturdy and powerful arms, he pushed out the air cannon that had been condensed to the extreme in an instant!
In an instant, this already condensed air cannonball was like a hammer, "smashing" towards Luo Chen at an extremely fast speed. The air that had been compressed to the extreme, even if it was gas, was now as hard as steel. It passed through the surrounding space, making a sound of breaking through the air.

After a roar, the air cannon hit Luo Chen who was ready, and then burst out with an extremely strong airflow, causing the middle-aged man standing outside the venue to be stunned and unable to react, so he took a step back!
The aftermath of this air cannon alone was enough to force a Soul Saint of the seventh ring level to retreat. This alone was enough to show how powerful this attack was.

Although this attack was not enough to break through the defense of a Seven-ringed Soul Saint, its speed was enough to prevent the Seven-ringed Soul Saint from being able to guard against it, which was enough to defeat most Soul Master-level powerhouses.

Especially this air cannon, which can be released not only as a charged skill, but also as an instant skill, and can be released continuously. The only difference between the two is the power of the skills.

In order to test the strongest power of this move, Tai'an chose the former and released it as a charged attack skill. After the power was fully charged, he was very satisfied with the power of this skill.

It is just an ordinary thousand-year soul ring, but it can release a soul skill with such power. In particular, this soul skill can be under his control and can be changed and used according to his will. It is not limited to just an "air cannon".

He possesses a top-notch beast martial soul, and although his own strength is the strongest means of attack, if he encounters a quick-attack soul master with a flying martial soul, he will obviously be restrained by the opponent.

However, now he has an additional long-range attack skill with decent power and extremely fast attack speed. Even if he encounters this kind of agile attack soul master in the future, he will have certain means to deal with it.

Moreover, this soul skill that can control the surrounding aura and gather airflow can even be used as a flying soul skill in the future when his own soul power is sufficient. It is definitely a very practical soul skill!

However, after understanding the specific power of this soul skill, Taian's face did not show the slightest joy.

Because in front of him, Luo Chen, who had taken the blow head-on, except for his hair being messed up by the violent airflow, his aura did not change at all and was still as steady as ever.

Not only did he not release a corresponding soul skill to deal with it, but even his movements did not change at all. He still stood straight in the same place, as if he had not just endured an attack, but was enjoying the breeze.

"Huh? That's it?"

After feeling that the air current around him had calmed down, Luo Chen first reached out to tidy up his messy hair and clothes, and then looked at Tai'an in front of him and asked with a smile on his face.

Obviously, the air cannon that even the three-ring soul master of the strong attack system could not withstand did not cause any harm to Luo Chen, and even the impact on him was minimal.

After hearing this, the excitement that had just appeared on Taian's face disappeared at this moment, and he could not help but smile bitterly and shook his head.

He had thought that Luo Chen could block this charged attack, but he did not expect that this full-strength attack, which was enough to instantly kill any hundred-year-old soul beast, or even severely injure a thousand-year-old soul beast, could not even cause any damage to Luo Chen.

For a moment, Tai'an felt a strong sense of frustration in his heart. He originally thought that after he broke through to the second-ring great soul master level and absorbed the thousand-year soul ring, he would be able to narrow the gap with Luo Chen. However, he did not expect that the reality would be so cruel.

The gap in strength between the two not only did not narrow, but instead became even wider with the breakthrough in cultivation.

Even if the Millennium Soul Skill was released at full power, it could not cause any harm to Luo Chen, who was only a Three-Ring Soul Master at the moment. He was not even able to make the opponent resist. Such a gap made Taian think of the scene when he first sparred with Luo Chen.

At that time, he was also full of passion and wanted to defeat Luo Chen with his strongest power, but the result was that he couldn't even withstand a single move from the opponent and was defeated easily and easily!
"I'm convinced. I'm really convinced this time. I'll never spar with a monster like you again. You're really asking for trouble..."

Looking at Luo Chen in front of him who seemed to want to continue sparring, Taian couldn't help but sigh, released his martial spirit, and spoke with some tiredness.

Although he still had some strength left after releasing the Millennium Soul Skill, Tai'an did not intend to continue. Even a full-strength attack was so easily endured by Luo Chen, so his other means of attack would probably not be able to play any role.

After realizing the gap between the two, Taian no longer had the confidence to continue fighting with him. He was afraid that his faith would be shattered if he held on for another second.

Seeing Taian admit defeat so directly, Luo Chen also put away his own martial spirit. He originally wanted to rely on Taian to test his current strength, but now it seems that the gap in strength between the two is probably a little bit big...
