Douluo Continent: From Internal Martial Arts to the Law of Heaven and Earth

The second soul skill is the Law of Heaven and Earth.

The spirit rings flickered, and the effects of the rules were applied to the body.

Tangshan is currently at level 22. According to the amplification rules of the Soul Skill "Dharma Image Heaven and Earth", his final amplification size will be 220%.

His original 1.8-meter frame instantly grew taller, not in a superficial, inflated way, but as if meticulously stretched and imprinted by an invisible hand, every muscle fiber extending proportionally. His physique remained unchanged, retaining its breathtakingly robust and lean build, his muscles coiling like writhing dragons, exuding an explosive, powerful beauty. In the blink of an eye, his height surged to nearly four meters, making him resemble a steel giant forged from flesh and blood.

Those fists were now as big as washbasins, and with each breath, they caused the surrounding air to emit a muffled whistling sound.

Feeling the surging power within his body after his size more than doubled, as well as the consumption of soul power and various changes in his body, Tang Shan couldn't help but be even more amazed.

After having Serpent Spear Douluo conduct several experiments with him, Tang Shan finally got a general idea of ​​the effects of this Dharma Image Heaven and Earth.

In short, it has the advantage of increased size, but basically none of the disadvantages of increased size.

Tang Shan's physical strength remains the same, but due to his increased size, his strength has more than doubled.

Despite being nearly four meters tall, he still expends the same amount of energy as before when moving around, and it has not caused any problems.

The soul power consumption is not much; it is calculated as a percentage, with 2% of the soul power consumed for every minute the soul skill is maintained.

All I can say is that this soul skill is really outrageous; the soul power consumption is completely less than its inherent effect.

Boom boom boom!

With a body nearly four meters tall and fists the size of an iron pot, Tang Shan unleashed a series of air bursts with his power and skill.

He took a deep breath, his first spirit ring flashed, and his already enormous arms expanded further.

Boom!

With a punch, air condensed on the fist surface under the exquisite control of force, and then flew out, exploding on a tree in the distance, snapping several branches in half.

Tang Shan looked at his punch with a strange expression. It looked a bit like an air cannon. Good heavens, he had accidentally created another self-made soul skill.

"Isn't the effect of your soul skill a bit exaggerated?"

Serpent Spear Douluo tugged at his beard, his face full of struggle.

God knows that he almost lost his mind when Tang Shan told him about the effects of this soul skill.

Previously, Tang Shan could easily overwhelm a Great Soul Master with just his first Soul Skill. Although he hadn't had a formal battle with a Soul Grandmaster, a 50/50 match was probably not a big problem. Now, Tang Shan has obtained a second Soul Skill, which directly increases his size, greatly enhancing his strength.

Let alone fighting a Soul Master, even with the current strength that Tang Shan has gained, Snake Spear Douluo Gu Ji would be able to defeat a Soul Sect member as easily as beating a child.

"Luck, it's all just luck."

Tang Shan, whose size was rapidly shrinking, wore an awkward but polite smile. After all, his second soul skill was indeed a bit too overpowered, and it was easy for people to lose their composure.

He took out a set of clothes from his storage soul tool and put them on. If he had to say what the flaw of this Dharma Image World was, it would be that it was too wasteful of clothes. His body size increased dramatically, which was a huge burden on the clothes themselves.

Tang Shan was starting to worry about the clothes. This was now the first battle, not the second. Where could he find clothes that could stretch and shrink?

For no apparent reason, Tangshan thought of a certain angelic young lady. Since he had already invested so much, investing in another set of clothes should be feasible, right?

"Get some rest, we'll head back tomorrow."

"Snake Spear Douluo looked at the sky," Chen Sheng said.

The midday chase after the Diamond Mammoth, the killing of it, and the absorption of its soul ring took a long time. By then, starlight hung in the sky, and the surrounding forest gradually fell silent, with only occasional chirping of insects and birds adding a touch of life.

"Okay, senior."

Tang Shan agreed, quickly set up the tent, and crawled inside to reflect on his gains from this breakthrough.

First and foremost is the perfect fusion of martial spirit and physical body.

Tang Shan closed his eyes and sensed his own state. He discovered that his soul power was being absorbed by his body at a barely perceptible speed. Because the absorption was so slow, even slower than the normal absorption of soul power after cleansing his internal organs, it had not been noticed before. Only now, after calming down, did he realize it.

This is the soul power needed to maintain a martial soul.

Tang Shan seemed to be deep in thought, and then he took the initiative to stop the supply of soul power. The next moment, the blood and qi in his body began to decrease slowly, almost at the same rate as Tang Shan's daily activities.

He suddenly opened his eyes, his face revealing an uncontrollable joy.

As I expected, after the martial spirit and body were perfectly integrated, the blood and qi had become a different kind of energy, enough to maintain the activation of the martial spirit.

After trying again, Tang Shan was somewhat disappointed: It's a pity that it can only be used to activate the Martial Soul for the time being, and cannot be used to activate the Soul Skill with Qi and Blood.

There is also the second awakening of the original martial soul.

With his soul power surging and his blood energy surging, Tang Shan noticed that his body seemed to be gathering silver light, converging behind him. However, this phenomenon quietly disappeared again after his soul power and blood energy stopped amplifying.

Silver-level second awakening? It seems everything is going as I expected. Martial arts itself is subtly developing the body's own potential. Once I complete the fusion of my martial soul and body, I'm not far from a second awakening. In fact, if I force an awakening, I might not reach the silver level, but reaching the bronze level shouldn't be a big problem.

As Tang Shan sorted out his own situation, he quickly made a rough assessment of his current strength.

Once I break through to the Dan Jin level, I won't need to start the blood exchange stage of cultivation. I only need to harmonize my essence, qi, and spirit to embrace the Dan. With further development of my body, I can basically complete the Silver-level second awakening perfectly.

As for the Golden Awakening, the first step is to further enhance the potential inherent in the Martial Soul itself. The second step is still to develop the body's potential. Developing the body's potential is easy. According to my estimate, as long as one reaches the level of seeing the gods, the requirements for potential development can be easily met. As for further increasing the potential inherent in the Martial Soul, that will probably fall into the "Ice and Fire Hot Pot".

Currently, ten meridians have been opened, and we are not far from opening the twelve regular meridians.

The cultivation of Qi and Blood has reached the level of True Strength, but it still lacks the secret method of Marrow Cleansing. On the way back, we can ask Serpent Spear Douluo for help to find some tiger-type soul beasts for observation and reference.

The cultivation of martial spirits is not far from the second awakening;

He was almost able to open up the sea of ​​spirit through his spiritual cultivation.

Sparks of thought and inspiration collide in the mind, and a multitude of information merges in the consciousness of Tangshan.

It seems I need to come up with a chart of the dimensions of a Soul Master's strength when I get back. The three aspects of essence, energy, and spirit cannot fully encompass all the components of a Soul Master's strength.

His mind gradually calmed down, returning to a state of tranquility, and he entered a meditative state, his body faintly emitting a silvery-white light...

"The Dark Tiger, which is 3,900 years old."

Tang Shan, who was speeding along, narrowed his eyes and looked at the spirit beast that was really eyeing him menacingly in the tree not far away. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

"Senior, I'll go and take a look at the physical structure of this soul beast."

"Row."

The Serpent Spear Douluo who was following beside him did not refuse. Tang Shan had told him before that he needed to comprehend a secret technique for refining internal energy and cleansing marrow by observing the breathing and physical changes of tiger and bear-type soul beasts, which might take some time.

Faced with Tang Shan's request, Serpent Spear Douluo did not refuse. Since he reached the Ming Jin level, his spear technique, which had not improved for a long time, began to improve again. Therefore, he also paid great attention to the cultivation of internal martial arts.

Tangshan first thoroughly understood the secret method, and only after they were able to reach the level of "transformation energy" could they more easily master it.

Bang bang bang!

Tang Shan strode towards the tree where the Dark Demon Tiger was lurking. As he moved forward, a domineering and unyielding will emanated from his body, and two spirit rings, one light purple and one bright purple, rhythmically vibrated beneath his feet.

His second spirit ring flashed, and his body expanded as he walked, transforming in the blink of an eye into a small giant nearly four meters tall, with bulging muscles, like the embodiment of power.

Roar!

A lifetime of raging tiger roars.

Seeing Tang Shan, who had transformed into a small giant and was heading straight for him, the Dark Tiger's yellow eyes revealed cruelty and savagery. Dark elements gathered on its body, and with a leap, it pounced towards Tang Shan.

The Dark Demon Tiger, like a black lightning bolt slicing through the sky, carrying a suffocatingly fierce aura, covered several meters in the blink of an eye and pounced in front of Tang Shan.

The enormous tiger paw tore through the air, emitting a piercing shriek that made one's teeth ache, carrying a force powerful enough to shatter metal and stone, aimed straight for Tang Shan's head.

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed through the forest. Before Tang Shan's fist, the size of an iron pot, could even reach him, an extremely compressed air cannon shot out. This miniature air cannon precisely struck the Dark Demon Tiger's body, while his right hand rose like a serpent, his wrist flicking and sinking. That seemingly casual twist and turn completely neutralized the immense force carried by the tiger's paw.

It must be said that the boost that the Dharma Image Heaven and Earth gave to Tang Shan was enormous. Combined with his internal martial arts skills that had reached the Transformation Realm, even the Dark Demon Tiger, which would require an ordinary Soul Master to fight with all their might, was like a helpless big cat in Tang Shan's hands.

Dense dark elements, like ink, permeated the opponent's body. In the blink of an eye, the tiger split into three, and two clones, identical to the original body, appeared out of thin air, attacking Tang Shan's throat and heart respectively.

Faced with this deadly pincer attack, Tangshan's response was simple and pragmatic.

With a swing of his left hand, a powerful gust of wind was generated, directly sending one of the clones flying several meters away; his right leg followed closely behind, sweeping out horizontally, and an extremely savage force burst forth from his nearly four-meter-tall body. The other clone didn't even have time to scream before it was kicked into a cloud of black mist.

Roar!

The Dark Demon Tiger, still unwilling to give up, opened its blood-red maw, and dense black light frantically condensed within it. At the same time, the forelimb that Tang Shan was holding in his left hand was also enveloped in dark elements, attempting to break free of its grip and launch a counterattack.

Facing this ferocious beast that had not yet realized the difference in strength between them, Tang Shan's eyes flashed with disdain, and then he let out a loud shout.

The air seemed to be sucked away instantly, Tang Shan's chest expanded rapidly, and then the ball of air that had been condensed to its limit was suddenly spat out by him like a dragon ball, exploding right in front of the Dark Demon Tiger.

The roaring sound echoed through the forest like thunder, instantly shattering the soul power surging within the Dark Tiger. Its massive body froze, its eyes filled with confusion, as if it had forgotten where it was.

Tang Shan's massive arm swung back and pressed the Dark Demon Tiger hard against the ground. Then, his burly body sat heavily on the tiger's back, one large hand covering the tiger's spine, his eyes closed, carefully feeling the subtle rumbling that came from within the body with each breath.

Snoring, snoring!

Roar!

The Dark Tiger regained its senses from the excruciating pain and struggled desperately, its claws futilely digging two deep pits in the ground, but it was utterly unable to shake off the mountain-like oppression.

Every tremor of the spine, every resonance of the internal organs, even the throbbing deep within the bone marrow, and the texture of the muscles when they exert force—all these are clearly perceptible in Tangshan's perception.

It truly is a rare treasure.

Before anyone knew it, Tang Shan's hands had become much thicker, with dark blue veins covering them like an indestructible armor, and his first spirit ring quietly lit up beneath his feet.

With his first soul skill, which granted him near-divine control, Tang Shan clearly perceived every change within the Dark Demon Tiger's body. The subtle rhythms of its muscles, the flow of its qi and blood, the opening and closing resonance of its internal organs—all of this was absorbed into his mind, becoming the foundation for creating the Marrow Cleansing Secret Technique.

Swish!

The Dark Tiger frantically dug into the ground with its hind legs, trying to prop itself up, but all of this was in vain in the face of Tang Shan's absolute strength.

"Alright, alright, I've felt enough."

Seeing that the other party was struggling, Tang Shan shook his head helplessly and stood up from the tiger's back.

boom!

The Dark Tiger exerted force with all four limbs, slamming its fists into the ground with a dull thud. Then, without looking back, it transformed into a black shadow and darted into the depths of the dense Star Dou Great Forest.

"How do you feel?" Serpent Spear Douluo asked.

Tang Shan didn't answer immediately. Instead, he took a deep breath and guided the flow of energy within his body. He instantly tightened his control over his first soul skill, carefully manipulating his internal organs and muscles to simulate the frequency he had just sensed, triggering a full-body resonance.

Snoring! Rumbling!

A deep, muffled sound, like a tiger's roar, emanated from Tang Shan's body. The resonant force traveled along his meridians, penetrating his bones and reaching the deepest part of his marrow.

A strange tingling sensation surged from within his bones, causing Tang Shan to furrow his brow slightly.
