Douluo, my clone Groudon

Chapter 173 Domination of the Whole Field
The air was distorted, and the crimson-gold orb suspended in the sky resembled a real sun, its scorching ripples instantly sucking away the water vapor within a hundred meters.

As soon as the feng shui tornado that Gu Yue was poised to unleash took shape, it let out a mournful cry. The swirling water elements boiled and vaporized in the high temperature. Before the core of the tornado could even reach within ten meters of Gu La, it collapsed and disintegrated into countless starlight points that dissipated in the scorching wind.

"Elemental immunity?"

Gu Yue bit her lower lip, her amethyst-like pupils gleaming with silver light. Her ten fingers danced like butterflies, and both spirit rings simultaneously emitted a dazzling light.

The four elements of earth, fire, water, and wind intertwined in her palm to form a miniature star vortex. The originally distinct elemental particles began to merge under the forced compression of spatial forces.

This is the power of creation that only the Silver Dragon King can access. Ordinary soul masters cannot do it. Even after transforming into a human, its power is reduced to one-hundredth. However, the aura generated when the four basic elements are fused still makes the air shatter like glass.

The fusion of the four basic elements increases stability tenfold, making it impossible to be easily dispersed. However, her mental strength is insufficient, and she needs to carefully control it over a long period of time to complete this combination technique.

Just as the elemental sphere was about to stabilize, Gu Yue's pupils suddenly contracted. The previously docile fire element suddenly erupted, the crimson particles violently trembling and breaking free of control, and spiderweb-like cracks instantly spread across the surface of the elemental sphere.

She abruptly looked up at the artificial sun, only to see its surface erupting with surging prominences: "Indiscriminate fire element amplification? Madman... But for ultimate fire... there is indeed no difference!"

Sweat trickled down the girl's fair neck, evaporating into mist at her collarbone. At this moment, every second she maintained the elemental sphere, the mental energy consumed increased exponentially.

"Roar!"

The dragon's roar tore through the heatwave. Tang Wulin's right arm was covered with golden scales, and the golden dragon claw tore through space, creating five vacuum cracks. The magma in its path was cleaved apart by the violent claw wind.

Almost simultaneously, Xie Xie's figure burst forth from the shadow cast by Gula, the Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger drawing mysterious trajectories, and a golden and silver storm spiraled in and snarled towards them.

Light Dragon Storm! Shadow Dragon Storm!
The two worked together seamlessly, and the timing of their attack was perfect; it would be easy for them to replicate it even once.

"Good cooperation."

For the first time, Gula showed an approving smile, just like when he guided Tang San and the others in the original timeline.

The first spirit ring beneath his feet suddenly emitted an eerie purple light. The previously restless lava domain instantly fell silent, and the vegetation within a hundred meters radius flattened against the ground, even the air seemed to groan in unbearable pain.

The moment the thirty-seven times gravity descended, Xie Xie's sprinting figure suddenly froze. The storm of light and darkness disintegrated into countless points of light in the distorted gravity field. The boy's knees slammed heavily into the scorching ground, and the Light Dragon Dagger sparked dazzlingly as it scraped against the rocks.

Gula raises one hand forward: Gravity compresses!
"boom!"

Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass vines curled and carbonized in the high temperature, and the Star Wheel Chains crumbled inch by inch.

The golden dragon claws tilted uncontrollably toward the core of gravity, veins bulged on the boy's forehead, and fine beads of sweat seeped from his body.

In the spectator stands, Wu Changkong's Heavenly Frost Sword was already three inches out of its sheath, its biting cold air rivaling the lava domain—the ground within a hundred meters radius had been completely transformed, with charred lava pits and frost cracks intertwined.

Seeing that casualties were imminent, he had to be ready to stop it at any moment.

"Golden words!"

Tang Wulin roared as he summoned his soul spirit.

The spirit is a semi-physical state and is less affected by gravity. Moreover, he knew that Gula's first martial spirit did not have a spirit. The spirit skills were powerful, which meant that they also consumed a lot of energy. Their only chance of victory was to buy time.

The translucent snake curled up into a ball as soon as it appeared, struggling to move under the terrifying gravity even as a spirit.

Gula saw through Tang Wulin's plan, but unfortunately, a thousand-year-old soul spirit could only participate in the initial stages of battle. Moreover, Tang Wulin's Golden Language was still a flawed soul spirit. Even with the transformation under the influence of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, only one layer of the seal had been broken, and its strength was not high. "The battle is over. My development and utilization of soul skills far surpasses yours."

As soon as he finished speaking, Gula suddenly compressed his soul power and gravity domain.

Fifty times the force of gravity!
The moment gravity struck, Xie Xie was thrown to the ground. The Light Dragon Dagger emitted a sickening metallic creak. If it weren't for the strange twin martial souls sharing the pressure, he would have lost consciousness under the gravity long ago.

But his conscious state only exacerbated his pain.

"I give up, I give up!" he wailed.

Tang Wulin knelt on one knee, his Golden Dragon King bloodline surging wildly, causing the cement ground beneath his knees to crack radially.

Wu Changkong's sword was fully drawn, and Gula's strength had surpassed the two by a wide margin. Moreover, this soul skill was a domain-type soul skill, so a lower age was not a problem. He was truly blessed.

"That's it."

The Heavenly Frost Sword stood horizontally in the center of the battlefield, and Wu Changkong's usually cold and stern face was unusually solemn. He looked at the expanding artificial sun behind Gula and finally understood why the higher-ups of the Spirit Pagoda valued this young man so much.

To be able to control the domain to this extent, one is almost certain to become a Limit Douluo in the future!

But then Gula removed the gravity field, and the pressure on the boys decreased sharply. The recoil force sent them flying.

On the training ground, where the smoke of battle had cleared, Wu Changkong brandished the Heavenly Frost Sword. The Heavenly Frost Sword's energy froze the magma created by Gula, causing it to re-solidify on the ground. As for the damaged parts, the students would have to find someone to repair them.

Tang Wulin helped Xie Xie up, both of them covered in bruises from the gravitational field. It was only because Gula was considerate of the women that Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue didn't fall to the ground together.

"Gu Yue."

Wu Changkong turned to the silver-haired girl, his words filled with doubt: "Why are you so insistent on balancing the four basic elements when fusing elements? When the battlefield needs you, you should provide timely support. You must learn to trust your teammates. If you cooperate well, your chances of winning are higher than if you fight alone. Remember, you are a team."

It has begun! Shrek Academy's noble team theory.

Gula quietly complained.

I didn't see you guys caring about the team this much when you became gods.

Gu Yue tossed her disheveled silver hair aside and retorted defiantly, "Without the fusion of the four elements, we cannot defeat Gula."

She had fought Gula before, and in her opinion, both of Gula's martial souls were equally troublesome, and both needed to be broken through as soon as possible so that Gula could not establish a home-field advantage.

"I don't deny this."

Wu Changkong nodded and then said, "However, instead of brute-force elemental fusion, you might consider how to make the enemy fight according to your rhythm. This is the role of a control-type Soul Master. As a multi-element Soul Master, you can refer to and learn from this, but don't be obsessed with brute force."

"Tang Wulin."

Wu Changkong said with a hint of disappointment, "Bloodline isn't everything. I know that the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is not as strong as your bloodline, but you must remember that the Martial Soul is the foundation. Even if you prioritize your bloodline, you should still make good use of your Martial Soul, instead of just using it once at the beginning and then giving up on using it."
