Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 65 Battle

Ning Tian's clear voice rang out as the pagoda appeared.

"The seven treasures have names, the first of which is: Speed."

The first spirit ring on the pagoda lit up, and the rich yellow light made the pagoda even more magnificent. Two dazzling beams of light shot out from the pagoda and landed on Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er respectively.

Two beams of colorful light shone on Wu Feng and Nanmen Yun'er, and the situation suddenly changed.

Nanmen Yun'er's palms, which were originally aimed at Xiao Xiao, suddenly increased in speed, even leaving a series of afterimages in the air.

Xiao Xiao had no time to react and was about to be hit when Huo Yuhao's eyes flashed with purple light. He used his mental interference skill, causing Nanmen Yun'er's movements to pause. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huo Yuhao used the Tang Sect's ultimate technique, Ghost Shadow Tracking, to appear behind Xiao Xiao. He grabbed the back of her clothes and pulled her backward, thus avoiding Nanmen Yun'er's palms.

If it weren't for Huo Yuhao's quick reaction and the extraordinary speed of the Tang Sect's Ghost Shadow Tracking technique, Xiao Xiao would have suffered a great loss this time.

Xiao Xiao, who had just been rescued, was still in shock. She had almost been taken away by Nanmen Yun'er in one fell swoop. If that had happened, she would have lost face big time.

Somewhat shocked and enraged, Xiao Xiao immediately released her martial spirit. A flash of black light appeared, and the cauldron descended from the sky, landing on the ground with a loud thud. Xiao Xiao's first spirit ring also lit up: Cauldron Tremor!

Since the start of the round-robin tournament, Nanmen Yun'er has been arguably the fastest opponent they've ever faced. Especially with the amplification from Ning Tian's pagoda light, her speed has completely surpassed the level of a two-ring Soul Master. Even a three-ring Soul Master of the Agility-type Battle Soul Master would probably only reach this speed.

This is also why Xiaoxiao didn't react in time. Facing such a fast opponent for the first time, she hadn't been able to adapt and was almost killed on her first meeting.

After missing her first attack, Nanmen Yun'er immediately charged forward again. In her opinion, with her complete speed advantage, she was confident that she could end the battle in a very short time.

However, the moment she charged forward, a warning signal arose in her mind. She was indeed formidable; her forward momentum abruptly halted, coming to a painful stop. Her first spirit ring lit up, and her hands shone with a brilliant green light. A thin layer of green light could be faintly seen extending from her palms to her arms.

Just as her body paused, the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron crashed to the ground, separating her from Xiao Xiao.

Nanmen Yun'er intended to dodge and continue her attack, but Xiao Xiao activated the Ding Zhi Zhen.

Amidst the deafening roar, a powerful shockwave enveloped her body, causing Nanmen Yun'er to momentarily lose her senses.

Normally, given Nanmen Yun'er's speed, it would have been difficult for Xiao Xiao to hit her. However, just as she was about to dodge Ding Zhizhen's attack, she was disturbed by a mental fluctuation and was unable to dodge the attack in time.

It was Huo Yuhao's first soul skill, mental interference, which once again proved effective. This is the terrifying power of a mental-type martial soul—silent and without any warning.

I didn't even know how to dodge it, so I could only tough it out.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao's level was too low, and he could only interfere with her for a moment. Otherwise, she, a speed-attack type soul master, would have been crippled on the spot and would no longer pose a threat to Ji Lin and the other two.

It can be said that Xiao Xiao's Ding Zhi Zhen, combined with Huo Yuhao's mental interference, is an absolute weapon for controlling the battlefield. Even with Nanmen Yun'er's incredible speed, she still suffered a loss.

The Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron surged forward, crashing into Nanmen Yun'er's body.

Clearly, Xiao Xiao wanted revenge for almost being taken down by Nanmen Yun'er earlier. She also wanted to take down Nanmen Yun'er, the agility-type soul master who posed the greatest threat to her and Huo Yuhao.

Just as the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron landed with a thunderous roar, Ning Tian spoke again from afar, "The Seven Treasures have names, the second being: Release."

Another beam of light struck Nanmen Yun'er, abruptly ending her dizziness, which should have continued. She quickly retreated, dodging the attack from the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron.

Xiao Xiao, whose attack missed, looked at Ning Tian in surprise. Such strong support, such excellent judgment! He actually assessed the changing situation on the battlefield immediately and intervened to assist his partner without hesitation.

Judging from her first two soul skills, her first skill likely greatly enhances her allies' speed, while the second skill removes negative effects and seals, allowing her allies to return to their optimal battle condition. Both her combat experience and soul power are truly worthy of a Soul Master level expert!

Meanwhile, Wu Feng was being relentlessly attacked by Ji Lin. Ji Lin still hadn't used his martial spirit, and with just his physical strength and fists and feet, he was beating Wu Feng to a pulp.

"Bang." Wu Feng was kicked in the abdomen by Ji Lin and flew back, half kneeling on the ground with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth. If it weren't for Ning Tian's help, she would have been beaten down by Ji Lin with a few punches and kicks.

Although he knew he couldn't defeat Ji Lin, he couldn't even force Ji Lin to unleash his martial spirit, which made the proud Wu Feng somewhat unwilling.

With Wu Feng's top-tier beast spirit, this injury had little impact, and she unleashed her first spirit skill, Dragon Fire.

A thick layer of red flames erupted from her body, swirling around her within a foot of her body. She gathered her strength and charged towards Ji Lin again at an astonishing speed.

During this process, she also released her second soul skill, Dragon's Fury. Her body shone with red light, her second soul ring shone brightly, the dragon fire rising from her body suddenly turned dark red, her original half-body scales suddenly became thicker, and as her eyes shone with red light, her left hand had completely transformed into a dragon claw.

In Dragon's Fury state, her offensive and defensive strength increases dramatically, and she can also amplify all her other soul skills. The heat of the Dragon's Fire increases by almost 100 degrees Celsius in an instant, causing the surrounding air to distort violently.

She refused to believe that this wouldn't force out Ji Lin's martial spirit.

At the same time, Ning Tian, ​​who saw through Wu Feng's thoughts, chose to lend Wu Feng a hand. She chanted the soul incantation at the fastest speed, "Seven treasures have names, the second is: release, seven treasures have names, the third is: power."

The second yellow and third purple spirit rings on the pagoda lit up, making the pagoda in her hand exceptionally dazzling, even seeming to increase in size. Two beams of light shot towards Wu Feng. Activating her Millennium Spirit Ring skill, Wu Feng not only increased her speed by forty percent, but also her strength by forty percent. Combined with her second spirit skill, which resisted negative effects, she was now comparable to a level 30 or higher offensive-type Battle Spirit Master.

She succeeded. Faced with her all-out attack, Ji Lin didn't want to test her strength with his own body.

With a flick of his right hand, a crimson greatsword wreathed in flames appeared in his grasp. He slashed down at the charging Wu Feng, the crimson sword energy several meters long sending Wu Feng flying backward for dozens of meters before losing its power and gradually dissipating.

Wu Feng lay on his back on the ground, having already dispelled his martial spirit possession. His leather jacket was torn open by the sword energy, revealing glimpses of his soft, white skin.

"Feng Mei!" Ning Tian exclaimed and rushed to Wu Feng's side. Seeing Wu Feng's exposed body, he hurriedly took off his coat and covered Wu Feng's chest.

However, she also breathed a sigh of relief because Wu Feng was still awake. It was clear that Ji Lin had shown mercy; otherwise, Wu Feng would at least be seriously injured and unconscious.
