Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 47 Fighting Spirit, Part 3

Under such circumstances, Jiang Li became even calmer.

Facing Hu Yanli, who was hurtling towards him like a small mountain, the sense of oppression was self-evident.

Many viewers couldn't help but feel a chill for Jiang Li when they saw this.

Because you should know that Hu Yan once relied on his third soul skill.

Even when facing a Soul Master, he managed to kill them with a single blow.

This alone is enough to show how terrifying the power of Huyan Li's move is.

Seeing that Jiang Li still hadn't dodged, Dugu Yan, standing on the stands, felt a pang of anxiety and couldn't help but pull on Dugu Bo's arm, complaining with concern.

"Grandpa, why didn't Xiao Li just dodge that attack? It was so dangerous!"

Dugu Bo didn't say much about this, as he, as a titled Douluo, naturally knew.

The Diamond Mammoth lineage's third soul skill has a brief immobilization effect.

After he explained to Dugu Yan, Dugu Yan's face turned pale, and she looked at Dugu Bo and quickly gestured for him to intervene.

"Grandpa, hurry up and get down there! It looks like Xiao Li is about to be crushed into a meat patty!"

But Dugu Bo couldn't help but tease her a couple of times.

"Oh ho ho, I didn't realize Yan Yan cared so much about Xiao Li."

At this point, a thin layer of powder quickly rose to Dugu Yan's cheeks, and then she became hypocritical.

"I...I didn't care about him that much. I just thought that after so long, Grandpa suddenly had a disciple, and if he were to be killed so easily, it would not be good for Grandpa's reputation."

Seeing this, a hint of amusement appeared in Dugu Bo's eyes when he looked at Dugu Yan. How could he not know his children?

Judging from the current reaction, it's highly likely that this young lady has fallen for Jiang Li.

It seems that the day when my apprentice becomes my granddaughter's husband is not far off.

Then, seeing that his granddaughter seemed to be getting angry, Dugu Bo began to explain.

"Don't worry, I know Xiao Li. He wouldn't do something he's not sure of."

Upon hearing this reply, Dugu Yan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but her beautiful eyes remained fixed on the battlefield below.

The two talked for only a few dozen breaths.

At that very moment, Hu Yanli, who had grown to the size of a small mountain, was also very close to Jiang Li.

But at that moment, Jiang Li's hands were covered with two light-colored halos, one black and one white.

Then, Jiang Li suddenly swung out his black right hand, seemingly as if he were using his right hand to block the attack.

Seeing this, a strong sense of mockery flashed across Hu Yanli's eyes.

Trying to use one's physical body to block his third soul skill is simply laughable.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Li's right hand did indeed press down on the bottom of Hu Yanli's body, and he suddenly exerted force and pressed down to the left.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Li quickly retreated, and his left hand, which was covered with a faint white halo, suddenly moved to Hu Yanli's right side, exerted force again, and pushed sharply to the left.

And so, with these two seemingly insignificant actions by Jiang Li...

Hu Yanli's original move of steadily smashing Jiang Li down was affected, and he suddenly veered to the left.

It crashed off course, several body lengths away, and Hu Yanli even rolled like a ball to the edge of the Soul Arena before finally stopping. However, due to the influence of his third soul skill, the distance he had rolled still left a long trail.

This happened very quickly, and by the time everyone reacted...

Upon seeing Jiang Li, who remained unharmed in the center of the battlefield, cheers erupted.

But Huyan Li's face immediately turned gloomy, as if water could drip from it.

He didn't understand; he had just almost hit Jiang Li.

Even if the speed is relatively fast, it will dodge.

But the shockwave that occurred after he smashed it down.

That should be more than enough to give Jiang Li a good beating.

But for some reason, at that moment, all the strength in his body seemed to be drawn by some strange force.

The continuous shift to the left turned him into a ball, almost causing him to roll directly off the Soul Arena.

If he hadn't suddenly stretched out his hands and pressed them firmly against the competition table at the last moment, he probably would have already rolled off.

Looking at his disheveled body and his hands, which were covered in blood from hindering his movements.

Unexpectedly, Hu Yanli calmed down at this moment.

Only now has Huyanli been forced to accept a fact he didn't want to believe.

That is, from beginning to end, he seemed to have underestimated Jiang Li in front of him.

After taking a deep breath, looking at Jiang Li, who was still unharmed in the center of the battlefield, Hu Yanli released his inner anger and questioned him in a hoarse voice.

"Boy, what exactly did you just do?! My third soul skill is unstoppable by anyone of the same level! You definitely used illusion magic, yes, it must be illusion magic..."

At this moment, Jiang Li, who was in the center of the battlefield, had already lost the two layers of black and white light on his hands.

Looking at the current internal CPU-driven excitation of power, he couldn't help but feel a hint of disdain. After all, how far could someone who couldn't even accept his own failure go on the path of cultivation?

As for his actions just now, unless you have exceptionally sharp eyes, you wouldn't be able to see anything at all.

The principle behind it is quite simple: he used the Tai Chi he practiced to shift Hu Yanli's center of gravity slightly by using the technique of using minimal force to deflect a great weight.

Then, with a sudden burst of strength, he used his own power to push Hu Yanli's center of gravity one step further in the opposite direction.

Under this influence, even the shock force that was originally meant to be released was transformed into a force that rolled away due to the shift in the center of gravity.

These two seemingly simple actions naturally contain an understanding that only Jiang Li possesses.

This move happens to be the key principle of Tai Chi: using softness to overcome hardness.

It's not that effective against defensive Soul Masters like Hu Yanli.

But Jiang Li obviously wouldn't tell the other party these things.

He glanced at Huyan Li, gave a cold laugh, and then spoke with a mocking tone.

"The Diamond Mammoth lineage's attack, which was supposed to be unstoppable by its peers, seems to be nothing special after all."

After being provoked by Jiang Li again, Hu Yanli was furious and immediately retaliated.

However, Huyanli still maintained a degree of rationality during the subsequent attacks.

Each time, only a fraction of the force is exerted. Although Jiang Li can be neutralized by using softness to overcome hardness, that's all that can be done.

This prompted Huyan Li to reveal a mocking expression, his eyes filled with sarcasm, as if to say: What can you do to me?

But Jiang Li didn't react at all, because of all the previous exchanges.

It was all just a test of Huyan Li's abilities, and now that the test is over...

Then naturally he wouldn't continue to entangle with the other side.

Suddenly, Jiang Li abandoned his defensive position, tensed his body, and charged towards Hu Yanli.

This made Hu Yanli, who had been troubled, feel a surge of excitement, because he was confident that Jiang Li would be no match for him in a direct confrontation.

Just as Jiang Li was about to reach Hu Yanli, the purple soul ring beneath his feet suddenly flashed.

In an instant, four blue silver grasses, each about half a person tall, appeared around Hu Yanli, their pale golden leaves gleaming with a metallic luster.

The moment these four plants appeared, Hu Yanli could sense the extraordinary nature of this attack.

He immediately unleashed his first and second soul skills in quick succession, intending to use them for defense.

Seeing this, Jiang Li was not surprised at all, and waved his right hand again.

The four half-human-sized Blue Silver Grass plants approached Hu Yanli while waving their sword-like Blue Silver Leaves, launching nearly a hundred pale golden Blue Silver Grass streaks that resembled metal at him.

From a distance, it looked as if four sharp cleavers, carrying countless short swords, were rushing towards Huyan Li.

Third Soul Skill: Blue Silver Strangulation

Second Soul Skill: Star Sword Finger!

As a barrage of attacks rained down on Hu Yanli, accompanied by the clanging of metal against metal, Jiang Li couldn't help but frown.

After Jiang Li's attack subsided, Hu Yanli's true form was revealed.

Jiang Li's attack had left countless large and small wounds on his skin, which was originally as hard as metal.

Even on his body, there were four three-foot-long wounds that had cut through his defenses and drawn blood.

However, Hu Yanli's overall aura was not greatly affected, which shows that Jiang Li's fierce attack just now, though seemingly terrifying, was not the case.

However, it didn't work well for Hu Yanli himself, which made Jiang Li reveal a bitter expression.

Because of his combo attack just now, even a low-level Soul Master would probably be seriously injured.

This is enough to show that Hu Yanli, at level 38, has a defense that is stronger than that of a typical low-level Soul Master.
