Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Chapter 58 "The Secret Method of Ice Flame" (Part 2)

Furthermore, the probability of a Soul Master awakening twin Martial Souls is extremely low. Even if a brilliant mind were to see this, they wouldn't necessarily associate it with twin Martial Souls, but rather think that he possesses a special secret technique for fusing ice and fire attribute Soul Power.

Moreover, as far as Mu Yang knew, apart from himself, there seemed to be no other Soul Masters in the continental Soul Master world who possessed both ice and fire attribute Martial Souls, let alone any powerful individuals with both ice and fire attribute Martial Souls.

In other words, even if this fusion technique truly exists, only he can use it; for others, it's a useless tool.

It's like the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, which requires a cut to master before a protagonist destined for greatness can cultivate it.

Since the secret technique is a useless thing, not to mention that he has a senior of the title Douluo level as a backer, the mere reputation of Blazing Fire Academy is enough to dispel other people's curiosity.

For a powerless, unconnected, and unremarkable individual like Karami, one can retain curiosity and take action.

However, it's not worth doing this for Soul Masters with a distinguished background. Otherwise, you'll not only get yourself into trouble, but you also won't gain any substantial benefits.

Therefore, before adding soul rings to the Ice Flame Holy Shadow Martial Soul, Mu Yang will use the Ice Flame Secret Technique as his primary means of dealing with enemies in the near future.

"I see!"

Huo Wushuang suddenly realized.

Just as Mu Yang said, knowing that Mu Yang possessed twin martial souls, he was prejudiced and did not know that Mu Yang could cultivate ice flame soul power through meditation alone. Therefore, upon seeing the ice flame, he subconsciously assumed that Mu Yang had used the power of the Ice Flame Sacred Shadow Martial Soul.

"Come on, let's continue!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Wushuang flapped his dragon wings and flew into the air, transforming from a land-based unit into an air-based unit.

To be fair, Huo Wushuang's third soul skill, Crimson Flame Divine Dragon Transformation, is extremely powerful. It not only amplifies his own abilities but also grants him the ability to fly.

When the soul power level is not very high, soul masters with the ability to fly have a great advantage. They can fight if they can win, and run if they can't. Ordinary soul masters can't catch up, especially when the opponent has no ability to fly and lacks ranged attack methods.

Fortunately, although Mu Yang is only cultivating the food-type Ice and Fire Immortal Jade Ginseng Martial Soul for the time being, he still has ranged attack methods, and not just the Ice Flame Arrow Formation.

"Ice Flame Armor, Ice Flame Mirror, Ice Flame Spear!"

With a low shout, Mu Yang's body flashed with icy blue soul power. As his soul power surged, icy blue armor covering his entire body from head to toe materialized, and a five-foot-long icy blue javelin appeared in his right hand.

Immediately afterwards, a six-sided, one-foot-diameter, perfectly smooth, and exceptionally solid circular ice mirror suddenly appeared, then circled around the body at a distance of two meters.

"First Soul Skill, Crimson Fireball!"

Seeing Mu Yang fully armed, Huo Wushuang, who was flying in mid-air, became serious. He clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and crimson light surged, instantly condensing into a palm-sized crystal red ball of light.

Immediately, the crystal-red sphere shot out like a cannonball, heading straight for Mu Yang.

"Royal!"

With a thought, one of the six ice mirrors surrounding Mu Yang flew out.

As it flew through the air, the ice mirror swelled in the wind, transforming into a giant ice mirror with a diameter of one meter, which met the incoming crystal red light sphere.

"boom--"

The crimson orb of light landed on the giant ice mirror, instantly igniting a burst of flames and exploding like a bomb, accompanied by a violent roar, leaving the massive ice mirror riddled with cracks.

The next moment, the ice mirror shattered, turning into tiny, icy-blue flames that scattered and gradually dissipated into the air.

However, although the ice mirror shattered, Huo Wushuang's first soul skill was blocked by Mu Yang without any damage. All he had to do was consume the soul power required to condense an ice mirror.

And in the very instant the ice mirror shattered, a flash of icy blue light appeared on Mu Yang's body, and the ice mirror surrounding him was restored to its original six sides.

The Mirror of Ice and Flame is a special defensive secret technique in the "Ice and Flame Secret Technique" deduced by Mu Yang.

The specific effect is to condense six ice mirrors around the body. By controlling the ice mirrors with one's mind, one can resist physical and energy attacks from the opponent. The number of ice mirrors to resist can be selected according to the strength of the opponent's attack, with a minimum of one and a maximum of six.

The reason why there are six ice mirrors at the same time, rather than more or fewer, is that when the number of ice mirrors exceeds six, the defensive effect of a single ice mirror will decrease, while if there are fewer than six, the defensive effect of a single ice mirror will not increase.

In Mu Yang's view, the Ice Flame Mirror, which offers flexible defense, is far superior to defensive measures like the Ice Flame Armor.

After all, most defensive skills are manifested on the surface of a Soul Master's body. Once they cannot withstand the attack, the Soul Master will have to endure the residual force of the opponent's attack.

The Ice and Flame Realm can intercept the opponent's attack in advance, which undoubtedly improves one's survivability. At least when the opponent's attack strength is enough to break the Ice Mirror, but not too outrageous, one does not need to suffer the aftershocks of the attack due to the distance.

Moreover, with the Mirror of Ice and Flame, he can still use defensive measures on his body, which is equivalent to having an extra layer of protection, and the two will not conflict.

Besides, the Mirror of Ice and Flame has another special use, and we'll see if my older cousin can handle it.

"Behold the spear!"

Not fighting back when attacked is not in Mu Yang's nature. After blocking Huo Wushuang's attack, Mu Yang released his strength and threw the Ice Flame Spear in his hand directly at Huo Wushuang, who was flying in mid-air.

"Whoosh—"

As the spear hurtled towards him, Huo Wushuang's dragon wings flapped, and he shifted several meters to the side, dodging the icy flame spear.

But the next moment, the Ice Flame Spear that had just brushed past Huo Wushuang suddenly turned its head, drew an arc in mid-air, and fell straight towards Huo Wushuang's back.

Although Ice Flame Arrow Array and Ice Flame Spear are two attack techniques, they are essentially similar, except that the former has more arrows and smaller arrows, while the latter has fewer arrows and larger arrows.

"mean!"

Sensing the return of the Ice Flame Spear, Huo Wushuang, who had anticipated this, cursed under his breath, his dragon wings flapping as he considered dodging once more.

After all, the previous "Ice Flame Arrow Array" could lock onto and track targets, so there's no reason why the "Ice Flame Spear" should only go straight for the target.

Unfortunately, Huo Wushuang's speed was still not fast enough. He swayed in mid-air like a flea a few times before the Ice Flame Spear, under Mu Yang's mental control, solidly pierced the crimson flame crystal shield that had appeared on Huo Wushuang's body.

"boom--"

A violent explosion rang out, and the Ice Flame Spear shattered, transforming into a large handful of icy blue flames that adhered to the nearly broken Crimson Flame Crystal Shield.

In the comments section, I saw a reader ask how the protagonist can quickly consume the Soul Power Ginseng during battle. This question stumped me. I'm just a writer, and I've never eaten Soul Power Ginseng before, so how would I know how to quickly consume it?

If any readers are concerned about this point, just remember that once the soul power ginseng is put into your mouth, you can instantly refine it by circulating your soul power.

Anyway, soul power food is transformed from soul power, not normal food. When it is eaten, it is converted back into energy from a solid state, which makes logical sense.

As for why Oscar chewed the sausage, don't ask me; the author is a pure person.
