Chapter 158 Dark Eagle vs. Thunder Dragon (Part 1)
Chapter 158 Dark Eagle vs. Thunder Dragon (Part 1)
Lei Meng brought his old rival to the Soul Fighting Zone of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
It's already 7 PM, and there aren't that many people in the Soul Arena.
"The Soul Fighting Zone is still a bit small..." Wu Guangfu complained, looking at the Soul Fighting Zone, which was much smaller than he had expected.
"Then why don't you, as a shareholder, hurry up and invest to expand? There's another piece of land west of the academy where we can build two more Soul Arenas," Lei Meng said at this moment.
"Beat me first," Wu Guangfu said irritably.
Lei Meng laughed heartily: "It's a deal."
Qian Yuhan and the others followed behind, naturally wanting to observe the battle between the Soul Douluo and the Title Douluo.
Although in their hearts they thought that Contra's teacher might not be able to beat Wu Guangfu, who had broken through to the Title Douluo level.
After all, the difference between the two is not just a single soul skill, but a huge gap in soul power reserves...
"Old man, let's see if you can still laugh today," Wu Guangfu chuckled.
Lei Meng said, "Then let me experience the Wu family head's superior skills..."
The two stood on either side of the fighting platform inside the No. 1 fighting arena.
Lei Meng controlled the rise of a protective shield around the Soul Arena to prevent his students, who were watching the battle, from being affected and to protect their safety.
The battle is about to begin...
"Lei Meng, a level 89 offensive Soul Douluo, please enlighten me!"
Lei Meng spoke first.
Wu Guangfu then followed suit, his soul power surging, revealing his strength as a Title Douluo.
"Wu Guangfu, a level 91 agility-attack type titled Douluo, titled Dark Eagle, please give me your guidance!"
"Is this a battle between high-end combat forces? This is the first time I've ever seen this!" Mu Chen said excitedly.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared around Lei Meng, with dazzling bolts of lightning coiling around him like serpents, crackling and popping.
Her hair, which was originally jet black, had now turned snow-white, flowing in the wind like silver threads.
His eyes were even more extraordinary, flashing with blue lightning, as if they could unleash earth-shattering power in an instant.
At the same time, the sky seemed to sense this powerful energy fluctuation, and the rumbling thunder could be heard incessantly.
The entire sky was shrouded in dark clouds, so gloomy that it made people feel depressed and fearful.
In the college, almost all the students heard the rumbling thunder.
Some of the more timid students turned pale with fright and kept muttering:
"Thunder is rolling, I'm so scared..."
They all stopped what they were doing, looked up at the sky, and tried to figure out what had happened.
Looking at Wu Guangfu on the other side, his entire body was covered by a layer of black energy, which swirled around him like smoke.
Even more shockingly, a pair of enormous black and red wings sprouted from his back!
These wings, when spread out, were several meters long, and faintly glowed with a dark red light, making them look mysterious and terrifying.
Clearly, this is a special ability he gained after his martial spirit possessed him.
When he gently flapped his pair of black and red wings, a powerful wind pressure suddenly arose, and the surrounding air churned violently, as if it could really stir up a violent hurricane.
Eight spirit rings appeared beneath Lei Meng's feet: two yellow, two purple, three black, and one red. Among the many spirit rings, the bright red 100,000-year spirit ring stood out!
Two yellow, two purple, and five black spirit rings—nine spirit rings with the best spirit ring ratio—quietly appeared beneath Wu Guangfu's feet.
Although it has nine spirit rings, it's not as appealing as Lei Meng's eighth spirit ring, which took 100,000 years to form.
"Old man, let's see if you've improved at all these years!" Wu Guangfu said with a wicked smile.
"Let's see who's the best." Lei Meng pounded his fists together, bracing himself for the challenge.
"First Soul Skill: Thunder Annihilation Fist!"
With a roar, Lei Meng launched the first attack without hesitation.
He knew very well that with his current strength, there was still a considerable gap between him and his opponent. If his opponent made the first move and seized the initiative, the consequences would be unimaginable. He might not even be able to withstand a single move.
Lei Meng clenched his fists tightly, his muscles tensed, and streams of electricity, like lightning snakes, surged from his body and quickly converged on his fists.
In an instant, his fists crackled with dazzling lightning, as if they contained boundless power.
"hehe."
However, Wu Guangfu on the other side just sneered disdainfully, a hint of contempt on his face, clearly not caring about the attack that Lei Meng was about to unleash.
Just then, Lei Meng shouted:
"Take this punch!"
Before he finished speaking, he unleashed all the power he had gathered, throwing a powerful punch.
This punch was incredibly powerful, carrying an incomparably sharp fist wind and violent lightning force, like a giant dragon with its claws outstretched roaring as it pounced towards Wu Guangfu in the distance.
Surprisingly, despite such a fierce attack, Wu Guangfu remained firmly in place, without moving an inch.
His cold gaze was fixed on the rapidly approaching "dragon head," without the slightest fear.
"Not defending? Teacher Lei's first soul skill has considerable offensive power," Mu Chen said.
Qian Yuhan smiled: "Although the difference between a Title Douluo and a Soul Douluo may seem to be only one level, in reality they are worlds apart. A Title Douluo can easily block the attacks of a Soul Douluo unless they are extremely powerful."
Qian Yuhan explained.
As the attack landed, a loud boom was heard on the battle arena, and thick smoke billowed from Wu Guangfu's location.
As the smoke cleared, Wu Guangfu was firmly protected by the huge black and red wings on his back. A punch only caused a few feathers to fall from Wu Guangfu's wings.
"Old man, you've weakened!" Wu Guangfu dusted himself off and chuckled. "Let's see what a real attack looks like!"
After speaking, Wu Guangfu's first yellow spirit ring flashed:
"First Soul Skill: Demon Wing Guillotine!"
The black and red feathers on Wu Guangfu's back instantly became sharp and tough, like blades.
Then Wu Guangfu vanished from the spot in a flash.
Lei Meng, being an old rival, was naturally aware of Wu Guangfu's actions. He quickly activated his soul power, and the second yellow soul ring beneath his feet flashed.
"Second Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Protection!"
Behind him, a phantom of a thunder dragon roared, its power shaking the heavens. Then it merged with Lei Meng, forming a layer of dragon scale armor on Lei Meng's body, with faint arcs of electricity flashing around it.
Just as Lei Meng had predicted, Wu Guangfu appeared behind Lei Meng immediately after Lei Meng released "Thunder Dragon Protection".
With wings as sharp as knives, Wu Guangfu seemed to be wielding long swords in both hands, slashing continuously at Lei Meng.
The blade struck Lei Meng's "armor," producing a hissing sound, clearly indicating that the arcs of lightning around the "armor" were launching a defensive counterattack.
"Let's see how long you can hold out..." Wu Guangfu continued to attack, with an extremely fast attack frequency.
Tang Chen squinted in the audience, trying to see the situation on the field, but in the end he sighed helplessly, "No, I can't see the Dark Eagle Douluo's attack method clearly. The speed is too fast."
“Me too…” Qian Yuhan looked into the arena and said the same thing.
"It's normal that we can't see the details clearly in a battle between top-tier combatants. We can only learn the strategies—" Zhao Ke said at this moment.
Lei Meng is now in a passive position, which was expected, but no one expected that Wu Guangfu, who is of the agility-based type, would also have his defense and attack power so significantly improved after breaking through to the Title Douluo level...
Lei Meng pondered to himself:
"No, we absolutely cannot let this stalemate continue. We must quickly find a way to create distance between ourselves and the other side!"
His gaze was fixed on his opponent not far ahead, and a fine layer of sweat had already seeped onto his forehead.
Lei Meng took a deep breath, then stomped his foot, and the sixth spirit ring under his foot, which was emitting a mysterious black light, suddenly shone brightly.
With a low shout:
"Sixth Soul Skill - Three Thousand Thunder Dragon Shadows!"
In an instant, Lei Meng vanished from his spot like a bolt of lightning.
The next instant, Lei Meng's figure appeared in mid-air.
At the same time, the illusory figure began to rapidly split apart at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, hundreds and thousands of small and exquisite yet majestic thunder dragon phantoms appeared out of thin air and surrounded the entire huge battle arena.
These phantom thunder dragons were incredibly lifelike, with each one crackling with dazzling lightning, as if they were about to pounce on their enemies and deliver a fatal blow at any moment.
However, faced with such an astonishing scene, Wu Guangfu on the other side gave a cold smile.
He said dismissively:
"Hmph, it's just the same old tricks. Do you really think you can get rid of me with just this one move?"
After saying that, Wu Guangfu also moved his feet, and the black fifth spirit ring around his feet suddenly lit up.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Guangfu shouted loudly:
"Fifth Soul Skill - Dark Eagle Tornado!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Guangfu shot into the air like an arrow released from a bow.
At the same time, the already extremely broad wings behind him became even more robust and powerful under the strong enhancement of the soul ring skill.
He flapped his wings vigorously in the air, and powerful gusts of air roared out, intertwining and entwining to form a massive black tornado.
This black tornado, like a ferocious beast, opened its blood-red maw and swept towards the approaching phantoms of thunder dragons.
Many of the dragons that were close to the hurricane didn't even have a chance to escape before being swept into the terrifying black storm.
They struggled and writhed desperately in the wind, but ultimately could not escape their fate of being swallowed up. Before long, these poor thunder dragons were torn apart by the gale, turning into countless tiny electric currents, which then gradually merged into the black and red torrent and disappeared completely...
"What can you do to me? Hahahaha!" Wu Guangfu laughed heartily, looking up at the sky.
"This isn't over yet—" Lei Meng's black seventh spirit ring flashed beneath his feet in mid-air: "Seventh Spirit Skill: Thunder Dragon True Form!"
This time, Qian Yuhan and the others in the audience saw it clearly. Lei Meng's figure flashed and transformed into a blue giant dragon, which was somewhat similar to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. However, the electric current around Lei Meng's true form of the lightning dragon was even stronger than that of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex!
The dragon's roar attracted many students to gather at Arena Number One.
"I didn't expect there would be teachers putting on an exhibition match here at night!"
"This dragon is so cool!!"
……
"Seventh Soul Skill: Shadow Blood Eagle True Form!"
Wu Guangfu also knew that the enhancement effect of the Martial Soul True Body was still very significant, and Lei Meng was the first to activate the Martial Soul True Body in order to narrow the gap between soul power.
How could he let Lei Meng have his way? He also activated his Martial Soul True Body.
The dark eagle cried out, its cry mingling with the roar of a dragon, echoing in all directions...
At this moment, Lei Meng's true form as a thunder dragon flashed with green light:
"Water Spirit Serpent Body Soul Bone Skill: Heavenly Water Descends!"
"What?!" Wu Guangfu stared intently at the changes in the thunder dragon opposite him: "Torso Soul Bone! You actually obtained a torso soul bone!"
At that moment, thunder roared in the sky. Wu Guangfu looked up and immediately sensed something was wrong...
Before long, raindrops began to pour down.
Rain is an epic boost for this Thunder Dragon!
This torso soul bone skill might seem ordinary to other soul masters with soul bone skills, but for Lei Meng it's a "divine skill"!
Thunder Dragon's figure in the torrential rain was like a dragon entering the sea, as if it were in an uninhabited place, its speed increasing rapidly.
"Damn it! You're trying to play dirty tricks on me!"
Wu Guangfu cursed.
He never imagined that Lei Meng would obtain a torso soul bone, and that this soul bone would even grant him the soul skill of summoning rain...
Eighth Soul Skill: Eagle Piercing the Sky!
Wu Guangfu's Martial Soul True Body transformed into a Blood Eagle, which suddenly grew larger, making the Thunder Dragon much smaller compared to this enormous Blood Eagle.
However, this giant blood eagle was soaring into the sky, not a thunder dragon.
“What is he doing—” Qian Yuhan said, squinting slightly.
"He wants to break Teacher Lei's Rain-Summoning skill in one blow!" Fang Ya said.
“If it breaks, Teacher Lei will be in danger,” Mu Chen said seriously.
Lei Meng would naturally not let Wu Guangfu succeed. Letting him successfully make rain would be Wu Guangfu's biggest mistake, and Lei Meng would not let go of this excellent opportunity.
Suddenly, the bright red 100,000-year soul ring beneath his feet, burning like a flame, shone brightly, like a dazzling ruby in the air.
Immediately afterwards, an incomparably vast and boundless energy surged forth like a flood bursting its banks.
The Thunder Dragon, receiving this astonishing energy continuously, shuddered violently, and its already incomparably powerful aura surged even higher.
It raised its head to the sky and let out a roar that shook the heavens, its sound like rolling thunder that resounded in all directions.
"Eighth Soul Skill: Dragon's Roar Across the Nine Provinces, Shaking Heaven and Earth!"
As Lei Long roared out the name of the move, the entire space seemed to tremble.
At this moment, a light rain was falling from the sky, but these seemingly weak raindrops became an excellent aid to the power of the Thunder Dragon.
Nourished and blessed by the rain, the Thunder Dragon vanished from its spot in a flash.
Its speed of movement far exceeded that of Wu Guangfu's "Eagle Soaring Through the Sky" technique.
"What?!"
Wu Guangfu stared in disbelief at the thunder dragon's figure, which had already soared into the depths of the clouds.
He never imagined that this insignificant drizzle could boost his opponent's strength to such a terrifying degree.
In the air, the once calm thunderclouds began to churn and surge violently, gradually transforming into a huge vortex shape.
Just then, an enormous dragon head slowly emerged from the vortex, its cold and ruthless eyes fixed on the equally massive "Blood Eagle" below.
In the blink of an eye, the dragon head suddenly opened its mouth, and an incredibly thick bolt of lightning ripped through the sky, striking straight at the "Blood Eagle".
Taking advantage of the excellent conductivity of rainwater, the lightning struck and firmly controlled the massive body of the "Blood Eagle" with lightning speed.
Before Wu Guangfu could react, the Thunder Dragon descended from the sky with a devastating force, unleashing its eighth soul skill.
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the violent energy crashed down like a mountain onto the "Blood Eagle" that was bound by lightning.
A deafening roar resounded, and the giant "blood eagle" that Wu Guangfu had transformed into was completely unable to withstand the impact of this terrifying force. It was directly knocked back to the ground, raising a cloud of dust that blotted out the sky.
"Enough!!" Wu Guangfu shouted.
"Lei Meng, you're asking for death!"
Unparalleled soul power began to condense like a vortex...
