Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 36 Fortune and Misfortune are Intertwined

Feeling the wounds on its body, the Thunder Qilin was enraged and roared to the sky, its two horns drawing in even more thunderous power.

Lin Chen wouldn't let it continue absorbing the lightning, so he raised his sword-wielding hand and continued to attack the lightning unicorn.

He had previously discovered that this soul beast could actually use the power of lightning to heal its injuries, which was a bit abnormal.

What kind of constitution is this?

"Annihilation Thunder." Looking at Lin Chen charging forward, the Thunder Qilin unleashed its innate skill.

In the previous clash, it did not gain the upper hand. Under the amplification of the opponent's extreme attributes, it actually suffered a slight loss. Now, it needs to draw on the power of lightning again, but the person in front of it has seen through it. So it can only use its innate domain to buy time.

Unlike the Azure Bull Python's Azure Annihilation Thunder, which has a triple effect of paralysis, slowing, and attack, the Annihilation Thunder before us is different. It is a pure attack soul skill and the Thunder Qilin's strongest single-target attack.

Lin Chen raised his hand again, and several angelic holy swords appeared in the sky, colliding with the Annihilation Thunder.

In an instant, the earth shook and light scattered everywhere. All the surrounding trees were destroyed by the attack of the man and the beast. The ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts that lived in this area had long since disappeared.

On the other side, Zhang Lexuan also dealt with the Thunder Qilin's clone without much effort. The clone transformed into lightning power and dissipated in mid-air.

Seeing such a large fluctuation of soul power, Zhang Lexuan immediately rushed over here without stopping, while praying in her heart that nothing would happen to Lin Chen.

……

As the smoke cleared, both the man and the beast were covered in wounds. The Thunder Qilin was more seriously injured than Lin Chen, since Lin Chen had a substitute fighter.

However, Lin Chen's physical abilities were far inferior to those of the Thunder Kirin, so neither side had the upper hand.

Lin Chen activated his Life Domain and silently healed his wounds. The Star Dou Great Forest had a multitude of plants, naturally containing more life energy, making the Life Domain's effects even better.

"Lin Chen!" Just then, Zhang Lexuan arrived.

Seeing Lin Chen and Thunder Qilin both severely injured, Zhang Lexuan was extremely shocked. If she hadn't seen his four real spirit rings with her own eyes, she would have suspected that he was a Title Douluo.

"Are you alright?" Zhang Lexuan came to Lin Chen's side, helped him up, and asked with concern.

"It's nothing. Cough cough!" He spat out another mouthful of blood; the possession of Qian Renxue had put a tremendous strain on his body.

"Your domain..." The moment she got close to Lin Chen, Zhang Lexuan felt a tremendous life force healing her injuries. In particular, when she saw that the wounds on Lin Chen's body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, she immediately realized that this was Lin Chen's doing.

Qian Renxue had already handed over control of her body to Lin Chen the moment Zhang Lexuan arrived. The Thunder Qilin in front of them was greatly exhausted, and Zhang Lexuan and Lin Chen might be able to defeat it if they joined forces.

"We could consider absorbing this soul beast's soul ring," Qian Renxue said to Lin Chen.

"Roar!" At this moment, the Thunder Qilin on the other side roared, its whole body blazing with lightning.

"With lightning protection?!" Zhang Lexuan said with a solemn expression.

Seeing Lin Chen's confusion, Zhang Lexuan continued to explain: "This is a unique skill of the Thunder Qilin that has reached 100,000 years of age. It is the Thunder God's Body, which can absorb the lightning element in the air to enhance itself and increase its attack power and speed."

Thunder Qilin ultimately underestimated its opponent. If it had used its Thunder God Body from the beginning, it would definitely have the upper hand right now.

At first, Thunder Qilin thought Lin Chen's current state wouldn't last long, so it planned to conserve its strength, kill the human in front of it, and then go after the other woman. However, it didn't expect the human in front of it to be so powerful that it could fight it to a standstill and even gain the upper hand.

"Lin Chen, you and your sister Le Xuan join forces to continue weakening it, and I'll deliver the final blow," Qian Renxue said.

Her tactics were undoubtedly the most reasonable; among those present, she was probably the only one capable of killing this Thunder Qilin.

Unless Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan have a martial soul fusion skill.

"Sister Lexuan, can you control it? The longer the better," Lin Chen asked.

"I'll give it a try, but are you capable of killing it?"

"Do you think I have the ability to control it?" Lin Chen asked with a wry smile.

He wasn't good at controlling it, or rather, he wasn't good at the martial soul he was currently cultivating. After all, Lin Chen had chosen to cultivate his second martial soul in the direction of control, but its attack power was extremely strong. Even if he couldn't kill it in one blow, he could still leave something behind for the soul beast in front of him.

"Okay, I'll give it a try. If it doesn't work out, you run away."

If it really came down to someone having to die, Zhang Lexuan would prefer Lin Chen to live, but she also felt reluctant to part with the boy in front of her.

"What a contradiction," Zhang Lexuan thought with a wry smile.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Silver Moon True Form." Zhang Lexuan activated her Martial Soul True Form.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Flowing Firefly Moon".

Suddenly, many moons the size of stars appeared in the sky. Zhang Lexuan waved her hand, and beams of light shot from all directions onto the Thunder Qilin's body.

Upon seeing this, the Thunder Qilin unleashed a surge of thunderous power, forming a shield in all directions (similar to Tang Hao's Haotian Body Protection), blocking Zhang Lexuan's attack.

With another roar, bolts of lightning struck the area above Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan, forcing Zhang Lexuan to cease her attack.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Silver Moon Shield." Rays of bright moonlight shone on Zhang Lexuan, blocking the lightning strikes from the sky.

Zhang Lexuan wasn't a true Title Douluo yet. Although she possessed extraordinary talent, with only eight spirit rings, she couldn't afford to pay attention to Lin Chen. Being able to fight the Thunder Qilin to a standstill was already quite impressive; if it were anyone else, they would probably have been reduced to ashes long ago.

Lin Chen was currently absorbing the continuous life energy of the Star Dou Great Forest to heal himself. At the same time, he used the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to move around in the lightning strike circles, dodging the lightning while waiting for an opportunity to strike.

"Sword Shadows Galore!" Lin Chen's third soul skill appeared around the Thunder Qilin, with sword shadows constantly bombarding it. Although they didn't cause any real damage, they still annoyed it quite a bit, and the lightning in the sky was also greatly reduced as a result.

And that was precisely Lin Chen's goal.

Zhang Lexuan naturally saw Lin Chen's interference with the Thunder Kirin, and she certainly wouldn't let such an opportunity pass by. She immediately unleashed her eighth soul skill - Blood Moon Eclipse.

In an instant, the weather changed dramatically. The previously cloudy sky suddenly became cloudless, and a blood moon hung high in the sky.

Seeing this, the Thunder Qilin dared not relax. Several bolts of lightning instantly shattered Lin Chen's third soul skill, while its body was constantly accumulating thunderous power.
