Douluo: Yu Hao is reborn, this Tang San is different

Chapter 97 Tang San vs. Dai Mubai

Huo Yuhao gazed at the two enormous bone wings on the ground, his heart filled with the joy of his harvest.

Just as he was immersed in this joy, a soft light emanated from the ring on his hand. The light gradually converged, and Xiao Yan's semi-transparent figure slowly emerged.

Xiao Yan looked around, his gaze landing on the bone wings of the Ghost Feather Blade Eagle. He nodded slightly, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. "Yuhao, these bone wings are of fairly high quality in the Douluo Continent. They are excellent materials for refining flying combat techniques."

Huo Yuhao quickly stepped forward, carefully picked up the two bone wings, and handed them to Xiao Yan, his eyes full of anticipation.

Xiao Yan gently waved his hands, and an invisible force lifted the bone wings, suspending them in mid-air. He closed his eyes slightly, and his aura began to flow slowly around him.

Suddenly, he stopped what he was doing, turned to look at Huo Yuhao, his eyes filled with expectation and determination. "Yuhao, although the process of refining this flying combat technique is extremely complicated and difficult, I can lend you some of my soul power to help you."

He paused slightly, then continued, "At the same time, I will teach you the detailed method of refining this flying combat technique. You will be the one to refine these bone wings yourself. In this way, I will also teach you the method of refining them. In the future, if you encounter suitable materials, you will be able to refine them yourself without being restricted by others."

Huo Yuhao listened to Xiao Yan's words, his heart filled with emotion and surprise.

He looked up at Xiao Yan and saw his semi-transparent figure in the dappled light and shadow of the forest, exuding an indescribable composure and power.

Huo Yuhao nodded vigorously, his eyes slightly reddening, and said, "Thank you, teacher! I will do my best and live up to your expectations."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, raised his hand and waved it gently. A faint ray of light floated from his fingertip and slowly entered Huo Yuhao's brow.

Huo Yuhao felt a warm and powerful force surge into the depths of his soul, instantly invigorating his spirit, which had been slightly weary from the battle and his journey. Then, Xiao Yan rapidly formed hand seals, and a flood of complex information rushed into Huo Yuhao's mind.

This information contains every step, every key point, and all the details that need attention in crafting flying combat techniques.

Huo Yuhao closed his eyes tightly, focusing all his energy on absorbing this precious knowledge. His forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his body trembled slightly, showing that he was highly concentrated.

After the information transmission was complete, Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, a determined light shining within them. He carefully picked up the bone wing from the ground and held it tightly to his chest.

Huo Yuhao stared at the floating bone wings before him, where faint fluctuations of soul power still lingered. He took a deep breath, formed hand seals, and his spiritual eyes blazed with purple light. As he activated his mental detection to its fullest extent, a wisp of pure soul power slowly wrapped around the bone wings.

"boom!"

The instant their soul powers made contact, a deafening shriek exploded in Huo Yuhao's mind. His consciousness was instantly pulled into a hazy, gray space filled with raging wind elements.

"This is... the lingering space of that Ghost Feathered Horned Eagle?" Huo Yuhao cautiously looked around, his mental probe creating ripples in the space.

Suddenly, the gray mist surged, and two scarlet beams of light pierced through it, shooting straight towards them. Accompanied by the piercing cry of an eagle, a thick stench of blood assaulted their senses, causing Huo Yuhao to catch his breath.

"Such intense resentment!" Xiao Yan's voice echoed in his mind. "Be careful, this beast accumulated too much ferocity before its death!"

The gray mist suddenly condensed, transforming into the phantom of a giant eagle with a wingspan exceeding ten meters. Its blood-red eyes were fixed on Huo Yuhao, and the flapping of its wings stirred up a violent gale.

"Wow!"

The remnant soul of the Ghost Feathered Horned Eagle let out a shrill cry, its wings flapping, unleashing a torrential downpour of countless wind blades. Huo Yuhao hurriedly gathered his soul power within his soul space to form a defensive shield.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The wind blades struck the ice shield, producing a series of loud bangs.

Huo Yuhao let out a muffled groan, his mental sea violently trembling. Even more terrifying was that the ferocious aura contained within those shattered wind blades was silently eroding his mental defenses.

"Yuhao, use your mental power!" Xiao Yan's voice rang out again.

A glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and his spiritual eyes suddenly turned into a dazzling gold. A golden halo spread out from him, and wherever it passed, the gray mist melted away like ice and snow.

A dazzling golden light shot out from Huo Yuhao's eyes, accurately hitting the head of the phantom of the Ghost Feather Blade Horned Eagle. The giant eagle let out a painful cry, and its body began to twist and disintegrate.

Just as the remnant soul was about to dissipate, Huo Yuhao suddenly formed a hand seal, and strands of spiritual energy shot out from his fingertips, enveloping the dissipating gray mist layer by layer.

"Purify!"

Pure spiritual energy washed over him like a clear spring, gradually cleansing away the violent aura in the gray mist. Finally, it condensed into a crystal-clear cyan core in Huo Yuhao's palm.

Outside, the suspended bone wings suddenly emitted a dazzling blue light.

Huo Yuhao slowly opened his spiritual eyes, the purple-gold light flowing in them gradually fading away like the dawn. He exhaled a deep breath, not only not tired from the previous mental battle, but also feeling more solid and full of energy after absorbing some pure spiritual power.

His gaze shifted to the Ghost Feather Blade Horned Eagle's bone wings hovering before him. These wings now gleamed with a deep, dark blue light, and the previously lingering malevolent aura had largely dissipated. A metallic sheen flowed across the surface of the wings, and fine silver patterns were faintly visible along the sharp edges of the wing bones—the Ghost Feather Blade Horned Eagle's unique spatial attribute markings.

Reaching out and grasping the bone wing, the touch was icy cold yet strangely sharp.

Huo Yuhao gently stroked the surface of the wing bone with his fingertips, feeling the pure wind attribute energy contained within, and couldn't help but show a solemn expression.

"Let's begin refining." Xiao Yan's voice echoed in Huo Yuhao's mind.

Huo Yuhao nodded, his hands forming a hand seal, and a dazzling golden flame suddenly surged from his body. This flame appeared warm, but it contained terrifyingly high temperatures. When the bone wings plunged into the golden flame, it immediately stirred up a spatial ripple, with dark blue and golden light intertwining intensely.

"Be careful to control the heat." Xiao Yan stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes sharp. "The bone wings of the Nether Feather Blade Horned Eagle contain wind attributes and need to be slowly refined with a gentle fire."

Huo Yuhao was completely focused on controlling the golden flames, fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. Under the tempering of the golden flames, the last remaining black aura within the bone wings was forced out little by little. As soon as this aura left the bone wings, it was burned into nothingness by the golden flames.

"As expected of a soul beast over 50,000 years old," Huo Yuhao thought to himself in amazement. If it weren't for this special golden flame, ordinary soul fire would probably be unable to refine a bone wing of this quality. Three whole hours passed, and finally, no more impurities were expelled from the bone wing, which now appeared as a crystalline dark blue. But Huo Yuhao did not stop, continuing to maintain the tempering with the flame.

Two more hours passed, and a dark blue liquid with a silvery sheen began to seep from the surface of the bone wings. This liquid condensed and did not disperse in the golden flames, gradually forming a pool of liquid shimmering with starlight.

When the last drop of liquid fell, the bone wing had shrunk by nearly half, but its texture was more translucent, and the silver patterns on the edge of the wing bone flowed like a living thing.

"It's done." Xiao Yan nodded slightly. "Next, we'll move on to the most crucial step."

At the same time, Shrek Academy.

The battle erupted instantly, with Dai Mubai launching the first attack.

He roared to the sky, and his martial spirit, the White Tiger, instantly possessed him.

His once handsome face became ferocious, a thick layer of white fur appeared on his skin, and his hands turned into sharp tiger claws.

"White Tiger Blazing Light Wave!" Dai Mubai shouted, and a white light blade shot out from his mouth, accompanied by a whistling sound, shooting towards Tang San like a bolt of lightning.

Seeing this, Tang San remained calm. He quickly raised his right hand, palm facing up.

In an instant, a stream of clear spring water gushed from his palm, condensing into a water curtain in the air, steadily blocking Dai Mubai's White Tiger Blazing Light Wave.

The water curtain, though seemingly gentle, contained a powerful healing force. The White Tiger's fierce light waves impacted it, but were slowly absorbed. The water curtain not only did not break, but became even more crystal clear.

Dai Mubai frowned, clearly not expecting Tang San's first healing-type soul skill to be so troublesome. Without pausing, he pushed off the ground with both feet, charging towards Tang San like a cannonball, his tiger claws raised high, creating a sharp gust of wind, and slamming down hard on Tang San's head.

Tang San dodged Dai Mubai's attack with a swift movement.

With a wave of his left hand, he unleashed his second soul skill. Green vines sprouted rapidly from the ground, like a group of agile snakes, and began to coil around Dai Mubai.

These vines shimmered with a faint green light, and upon touching Dai Mubai's body, they began to release healing power, attempting to repair the minor damage he had sustained from cultivation and combat. Dai Mubai struggled fiercely, his tiger claws flailing wildly as he tried to sever the vines, but the endless stream of vines overwhelmed him.

"Hmph, watch this!" Dai Mubai roared, his soul power suddenly surging. He unleashed his third soul skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation, his body instantly expanding, his muscles bulging, and his skin becoming as hard as steel.

He struggled violently, breaking free of the vines binding him, and then lunged at Tang San again. Tang San took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes.

He clasped his hands together and unleashed his third soul skill, instantly forming a huge transparent shield in front of him, tightly protecting him within it.

This protective shield not only blocks attacks but also continuously provides Tang San with healing power, keeping him in peak condition at all times. When Dai Mubai's attack lands on the shield, it only sparks but cannot cause any real damage to Tang San.

The master gazed at the scene on the training field, pondering to himself.

When facing Dai Mubai's strong attack, Tang San defended flawlessly with his healing-type soul skills. However, Grandmaster knew that Tang San also had more powerful hidden weapons and halberd techniques. If these were excluded, could he defeat the offensive-type soul master Dai Mubai based solely on his current life-type abilities?

The master shook his head slightly, still harboring doubts about Tang San's insistence on choosing the life-based path. He felt that Tang San lacked some offensive methods and would be at a disadvantage in actual combat.

On the field, although Dai Mubai was unable to break through Tang San's defense for the time being, his warlike nature was fully unleashed. He circled around Tang San, searching for weaknesses in the protective barrier, and the soul power emanating from his body became increasingly violent, with a fierce light flashing in his tiger eyes.

"Tang San, don't think you're safe just because you're hiding in this shield!" Dai Mubai roared, unleashing the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave once more, as beams of white light rained down on the Life Protection Shield like a storm.

Tang San remained calm within the protective barrier, his eyes fixed on Dai Mubai's every move. He knew that passive defense was not a long-term solution; he had to take the initiative and find an opportunity. Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck him, and he conceived a daring plan.

Tang San manipulated the Life Protection Shield, reversing the healing power contained within it. The life force originally used for his own healing was now compressed and condensed by him, transforming into countless tiny life threads.

These threads are as thin as hair, yet incredibly strong, and contain a powerful vitality.

Tang San's hands moved rapidly, and life threads shot out from the gaps in the protective shield like arrows, quickly wrapping around Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai sensed the danger and swung his tiger claws, trying to cut the silk threads. However, these threads were extremely agile, dodging his attacks and instantly wrapping around his limbs and body. Dai Mubai struggled fiercely, only to find that the threads were becoming increasingly tighter, and the life force contained within them was beginning to quietly take effect.

These life forces did not repair Dai Mubai's injuries as they had done before with the entwined life force; instead, they ran rampant within his body, interfering with the circulation of his soul power.

Dai Mubai felt a disturbance within his body, and the previously smooth flow of soul power became sluggish, causing his movements to slow down.

Tang San seized the opportunity, deactivated his life-protecting shield, and rushed towards Dai Mubai at an extremely fast speed.

Seeing this, Dai Mubai forcibly gathered his soul power, preparing to launch the final attack.

However, the moment his soul power gathered, the life threads within his body suddenly exerted their force, instantly scattering the soul power he had painstakingly condensed. Tang San had already arrived in front of him, his hands rapidly forming hand seals, and a large amount of life power gathered in his palms, forming a life sphere radiating a soft light.

"Take this, Dai Mubai!" Tang San shouted, slamming the Life Orb towards Dai Mubai. The Life Orb unleashed a powerful force the moment it touched Dai Mubai's body.

This force was not simply an offensive power, but a powerful life force that raged within Dai Mubai's body, causing him to fly uncontrollably backward and crash heavily to the ground. Dai Mubai struggled to get up, only to find his entire body limp, his soul power almost exhausted, and his body weakened by the interference of the life threads.

Outside the training ground, the Shrek Seven Devils erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Xiao Wu jumped up excitedly and shouted, "Third Brother, you're amazing!"

Oscar whistled and exclaimed, "I never imagined Tang San could use his life-related abilities like this. It's truly an eye-opener."
