Douluo Continent: The Five Elements Lock Martial Soul, Five Elements Divine Might Transformation

Ling Yun raised the corners of his mouth and sneered, "I don't think I made a mistake in choosing my first spirit ring. My first spirit skill is quite powerful!"

Chapter 7: Challenging Tang San, Yu Xiaogang's Shock

"how is this possible?"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head helplessly and sighed, "Your martial soul is a metal bracelet. Absorbing the soul ring of a plant-type soul beast will only lower the quality of your martial soul. How can it possibly grant you a powerful soul skill?"

At this point, Yu Xiaogang raised the corners of his mouth and invited again, "Ling Yun, I invite you to become my disciple once more. Only by becoming my disciple can you become a powerful Soul Master!"

Looking at Yu Xiaogang's confident expression, Ling Yun sneered inwardly.

Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul was ruined after he became your disciple. If I were to become your disciple as well, my Five Element Lock would probably be ruined too. I am different from Tang San; I do not have twin Martial Souls.

Thinking of this, Ling Yun suddenly glanced at Tang San, and an idea immediately came to him. He smiled and said, "Master, Tang San is your disciple, isn't that right?"

“That’s right.” Yu Xiaogang nodded.

"How about this? I'll fight him. If he can defeat me, I'll become your disciple and cultivate under your guidance from now on."

But if I win in the end, please don't bother me anymore, okay?

Ling Yun suggested that he did this to get rid of Yu Xiaogang's entanglement and also to test Tang San's strength and see if he could defeat Tang San now!

"Oh, is that really true?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up. After absorbing the Mandragora Serpent's spirit ring, he was full of confidence in Tang San's strength.

“A promise is a promise! Tang San has innate full soul power, and so do I; Tang San has a useless martial soul, and so do I. I think this is a very fair battle.”

After a pause, Ling Yun added, "If Tang San can defeat me, I will acknowledge your teaching level, Master. But if Tang San loses, it means that you are not worthy to be my teacher."

"Well, Master, do you dare let your student fight me? In the world of Soul Masters, it's ultimately about who has the stronger fist."

"Well said!" Yu Xiaogang nodded, then looked at Tang San and asked, "Little San, do you dare to fight Ling Yun?"

"Of course I dare! I will not lose!" Tang San agreed, his eyes revealing a strong fighting spirit.

"Alright, we'll accept the challenge!"

"Let's meet in the grove behind the school after we finish eating."

After saying that, Ling Yun quickly finished his dinner and then got up to go to the grove behind Notting College.

He defeated Xiao Chenyu here this morning, and now he's going to face off the future Sea God right here!

Director Su quickly finished his dinner and followed Ling Yun to the grove.

He was also eager to see who was superior between Ling Yun and Tang San, two innate geniuses with full soul power.

About twenty minutes later, Tang San helped Yu Xiaogang to the grove, then walked up to Ling Yun, released his martial soul, and prepared for battle.

"Tang San, spirit soul Blue Silver Grass, level 13 control-type battle spirit master, please give me your guidance!"

"Ling Yun, the Five Elements Lock Martial Soul, a level twelve control-type battle soul master. His fists and feet have no eyes. Tang San, you'd better watch out later."

Upon hearing Ling Yun's soul power level, Yu Xiaogang's lips curled up in excitement, which he couldn't suppress.

In his opinion, Tang San's cultivation level was one level higher than Ling Yun's, and with the first soul skill granted to him by the Mandala Snake soul ring, Tang San was bound to win this match!

He could almost see Ling Yun kneeling before him, begging to become his disciple.

Just as Yu Xiaogang was happily fantasizing, the two had already started fighting.

Tang San immediately unleashed the Tang Clan's ultimate technique, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps. In an instant, his speed was like that of a ghost, and even Ling Yun's naked eye could only see a blur rushing towards him.

In just a few breaths, Tang San circled behind Ling Yun, preparing to use the Crane Control Dragon Capture technique to grab him and then throw him out.

Seeing this, Ling Yun sneered, "Trying to throw me out? If you can do it, then go ahead and try."

Before he finished speaking, the first spirit ring beneath his feet suddenly flashed, and pure wood-attribute spirit power burst forth from the Five Elemental Locks.

"Five Elements Power, Transform!"

Ling Yun's body rapidly expanded, and by the time Tang San grabbed him, he had already transformed into a divine wood ape, his weight increasing several times in an instant.

Tang San is only a six-year-old child, and with his current strength, he cannot shake Ling Yun in the slightest.

Instead, Lingyun raised its tail and lashed out like a whip, easily sending Tang San flying.

"Mysterious Jade Hand".

Seeing the thick and agile tail lashing out, Tang San quickly used the Jade Hand technique, making his hands as hard as jade, and thus blocked Ling Yun's attack.

Even so, Tang San's hands were still burning with pain, and both arms were trembling slightly. At the same time, he looked at Ling Yun, who had transformed into a divine wood ape, his eyes filled with shock.

"It actually turned into a giant gorilla! What kind of soul skill is this?"

Not only was Tang San shocked, but even Yu Xiaogang, who was watching from the sidelines, was filled with astonishment.

"This is the true form of a Martial Soul? No, this is impossible!"

"Ling Yun is only a one-ring Soul Master; it's impossible for him to awaken his Martial Soul True Body!"

While the two were still in shock, Ling Yun threw a powerful punch with his backhand. After transforming into the Divine Wood Ape, his strength and speed had increased significantly, and this punch even stirred up a howling wind.

"Oh no! This punch is incredibly powerful. I have to dodge it, or I'll be seriously injured!"

Seeing Ling Yun's powerful punch, Tang San gathered his soul power under his feet and used his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps to barely dodge Ling Yun's attack.

Immediately afterwards, the spirit ring under Tang San's feet flickered slightly, and a slender blue silver grass shot out, sweeping towards Ling Yun.

"First Soul Skill: Entanglement!"

My Blue Silver Grass contains the paralyzing venom of the Datura Serpent. As long as I can paralyze Ling Yun's body and render him unable to move, I can win!

Tang San thought this, but then he saw Ling Yun, who had transformed into a divine wood ape, smile.

"Hehe, this is the one I've been waiting for, Wood Spirit Power."

Ling Yun waved his hand, and Tang San's Blue Silver Grass unexpectedly changed direction and wrapped itself around Tang San.

"After transforming into the Divine Wood Ape, I can manipulate all plants, including plant-type martial souls."

"Next, I'll show you the Divine Wood Ape's ultimate move."

As he spoke, Ling Yun raised his arms, and his wood-attribute soul power poured out, transforming into thick vines that swept towards Tang San.

"Ultimate Move: Entangling Vine!"

"Ugh!!!"

In the blink of an eye, countless vines tightly wrapped around Tang San's body, turning him into a dumpling.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the vines' hold and could only let out a painful groan.

At this moment, the outcome is decided!

Ling Yun could easily injure Tang San with a wave of his hand, but he didn't do so, because Tang Hao might be watching from the shadows.

If he goes too far and attracts Tang Hao's attention, that would be bad.

After releasing Tang San from his restraints, Ling Yun looked at Yu Xiaogang and said, "Master, as you can see, I won this match. So, according to our agreement, from now on, you should not bother me."

Your students are so easily defeated; clearly, you are not qualified to be my teacher!

Chapter 8 Taking Whale Glue: A Complete Transformation

"..."

Hearing Ling Yun's extremely sarcastic words, Yu Xiaogang was speechless. He never expected that Ling Yun's first soul skill would be so powerful, and that Tang San would be so vulnerable in front of him.

After defeating Tang San, Ling Yun was preparing to return to his cultivation, but Tang San suddenly spoke up.

"Wait a minute, Ling Yun. You won today's match, but I won't give up. I will challenge you again until I defeat you!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yun raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Those who are defeated by me are never considered opponents by me. I will give you time to catch up until you can no longer see me!"

"That being said, I still look forward to your challenge. If you're willing to pay, I'm open to playing along."

Ling Yun added that he had his eye on Tang San's Spirit Hall subsidies, and there was no other way to stop him, as he needed a lot of money to buy whale glue.

Especially the Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Glue, which comes from a ten-thousand-year-old whale-like fish spirit beast, so you can imagine that its price will definitely not be low.

After saying this, Ling Yun left the grove under Tang San's unwilling gaze and returned to his dormitory to cultivate.

After Ling Yun left, Yu Xiaogang helped Tang San up and asked with concern, "Xiao San... are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Ling Yun didn't hurt me." Tang San shook his head and sighed, "I just didn't expect Ling Yun to be so powerful. Even though my cultivation level is one level higher than his, he still defeated me in a minute."

"Don't be discouraged, mistress!"

Yu Xiaogang patted Tang San on the shoulder and comforted him, "That kid just got a decent soul skill. As long as you absorb better soul rings and get stronger soul skills, you will defeat him one day."

Yu Xiaogang smiled confidently again and whispered, "And don't forget, you have twin martial souls, your future is limitless. In terms of talent, that kid can't possibly beat you."

Upon hearing this, Tang San nodded, thinking to himself: That's right, I still have that hammer. Ling Yun, your monkey form can only control my Blue Silver Grass. I'll see if you can control my hammer in the future!

After pulling himself together, Tang San returned to his dormitory to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Skill and improve his cultivation. He didn't even have time to play with Xiao Wu anymore.

……

Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye. During these two years, Ling Yun's cultivation level has also increased rapidly, reaching the peak of level eighteen, and is only one step away from level nineteen.

The meditation method he practiced was only a beginner-level meditation method, and the cultivation speed was extremely slow. The fact that he was able to advance six levels in just two years was already the result of his extraordinary talent and tireless dedication.

On the other hand, Tang San, with his top-tier Xuan Tian Gong skill, had already broken through to level 20 a week ago and, accompanied by Yu Xiaogang, went to obtain his second soul ring.

However, Ling Yun was not discouraged. Although he did not have the best meditation techniques, he could take whale gelatin to improve his physique and further enhance his cultivation speed.

Over the course of two years, Xiao Chenyu and the others would give him ten gold soul coins almost every month. By the time Xiao Chenyu and the others graduated, Ling Yun had already saved up more than one hundred gold soul coins.

In addition, Tang San would challenge him from time to time, and Ling Yun also set a rule that if he won, Tang San would give him a gold soul coin as a reward.

In just two years, Tang San gave him more than a dozen gold soul coins like a money-giving boy, allowing him to buy several pieces of good quality century whale glue.

Looking at the century-old whale glue in his hand, Ling Yun went to the grove behind the academy, preparing to take it.

He lit a campfire and took out a fist-sized piece of whale glue, which he then roasted over the flames.

Although the older the whale glue is, the better its effects, he is still only an eight-year-old child with a weak body. Taking ten-thousand-year-old whale glue rashly may cause harm to his body.

Therefore, he decided to take it step by step, starting with taking century-old whale gelatin and gradually increasing the age of the gelatin.

Before long, a rich aroma of roasted meat wafted over, and Lingyun's mouth watered as he looked at the century-old whale jelly roasting red-hot over the campfire.
