Douluo Dalu - Volume 01-48

by Tang Jia San Shao

  Oscar smiled slightly. His whole body erupting with spirit power, instantly, six peak configuration spirit rings simultaneously appeared around him.

  Seeing these six spirit rings, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong couldn’t help secretly nodding again. No matter what was said, Oscar hadn’t wasted these years. His spirit power level wasn’t lower than the other Shrek Seven Devils. When thinking that these children were all still only twenty, they also couldn’t help being somewhat jealous.

  If it was said five years ago that, in terms of true strength, Spirit Hall’s Golden Generation still had the ability to suppress the Shrek Seven Devils, then today, five years later, it was already pretty good if Spirit Hall’s Golden Generation could stand on the same level. Don’t forget that the Golden Generation were a lot older than the Shrek Seven Devils.

  “I, your father, has a mirror sausage.”

  Oscar moved very quickly, his sixth spirit ring suddenly flashing, a ring of black light bubbling out of his palm. That drop of blood immediately fell into it. Immediately afterwards, intense spirit power fluctuations surged from his palm. The sixth spirit ring also constantly expanded and contracted.

  Right now, everyone’s gazes all fell on his hand, amidst those intense spirit power fluctuations, a silvery sausage slowly appeared.

  Suddenly, Oscar’s face revealed a painful expression, his originally fully confident eyes turning somewhat shocked. Immediately afterward, the silvery sausage in his palm changed, the originally one silvery sausage suddenly splitting into another smaller one, simultaneously appearing in the center of his palm. And Oscar discovered that his spirit power didn’t decrease by one third like when he made mirror sausages before, but rather by half.

  After one large and one small silvery sausage appeared, Oscar loosed a breath, somewhat helplessly looking at Tang San, saying:

  “Little San, your blood really is a bit too potent.”

  Tang San associated this with when he saw Oscar eat that silvery light before, and in his heart he guessed some things about this sixth spirit ability of his. Smiling:

  “Then you hurry up and show us what this sixth spirit ability of yours is.”

  Oscar laughed out loud, saying:

  “Revealing the effects will require an opponent. Nevermind you, Fatty, come, us brothers haven’t met for so long, let’s talk with our hands first, affectionately.”

  Ma Hongjun pointed to his own nose,

  “Little Ao, did you make a mistake? You want to spar with me?”

  Oscar nodded without the slightest hesitation, making an inviting gesture to Ma Hongjun.

  Ma Hongjun looked at Tang San, who gave him an affirming look. And on the other side, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong’s expressions both grew full of interest.

  A food system Spirit Master challenging a power attack type Spirit Master, even though the spirits of both sides differed by a level, Ma Hongjun was still a Spirit King. Don’t forget that the spirit of this Spirit king was the Fire Phoenix. If not for him not being as hardworking at cultivation as Tang San and Ning Rongrong, by now he should also be at the sixtieth rank or so. In terms of burst power, he definitely ranked among the top of the Shrek Seven Devils.

  Ma Hongjun strolled over to stand ten meters in front of Oscar, pinching his fingers, issuing a burst of bone cracking kaka sounds, looking at Ning Rongrong with a rotten smile,

  “Don’t worry, Rongrong, I’ll start off leniently.”

  Oscar snapped:

  “Come. I don’t need your leniency.”

  While speaking, he put the silvery sausage in his hand into his mouth. Among all his six spirit abilities, only this sixth spirit ability wouldn’t lose effectiveness because he ate it himself.

  Ma Hongjun’s chubby body flashed slightly, scarlet red flames abruptly soaring, the surrounding atmosphere immediately distorting, surging heat radiating, that rich flame seeming to form the image of a fire phoenix behind him.

  What nobody had expected was that the first to move would be Oscar. With a silver flash of light in his eyes, before Fatty reacted, ten mixed blue, gold and red colored Blue Silver Emperors suddenly shot from the ground, instantly completing a Blue Silver prison, enveloping Fatty’s whole furiously burning body.

  Ma Hongjun was gobsmacked, the next moment, Oscar’s right arm was already raised, flashing golden light mixed with a smear of red began to swiftly condense on his right arm.

  “This is……”

  Ning Fengzhi stared wide eyed.

  Oscar’s expression was as free of ripples as a dried out well, but the spirit power he released seemed extremely strong.

  From the energy radiating from Oscar’s arm, Ma Hongjun finally sensed a crisis. No longer daring to take it, the flames all over his body suddenly intensified, the two formidable amplifying abilities Bathing Fire Phoenix and Phoenix Ascension simultaneously erupting.

  However, the Blue Silver prison trapping him still remained unmoved before such heat, enveloping him extremely solidly.

  Oscar’s clone mirror sausage was drawn from Tang San’s blood. Even though he had paid even more spirit power to manufacture it, this sausage still duplicated Tang San’s strength. Even so much that it included the fire and ice immunity within the blood. Even the phoenix flames were unable to melt that Blue Silver Emperor.

  However, Ma Hongjun hadn’t cultivated in vain over these years either. Clearly drawing a deep breath, Fatty immediately swelled up, the flames in his surroundings visibly dulling. A condensed until solid flame abruptly spit from his mouth. Rather than calling it a fire wire, it would be better to call it a sharp arrow out of flame condensed until solid.

  With an explosion, the compressed Phoenix Fire Wire heavily bombarded the surface of the Blue Silver Prison. The tyrannical explosive force immediately blasted open a crack.

  Even if Oscar had now duplicated Tang San’s spirit abilities, he had also consumed fifty percent of his spirit power when he used his sixth spirit ability before. Further supporting Tang San’s fifth spirit ability, the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, immediately produced a feeling somewhat his of strength being unequal to his will. Inwardly he couldn’t help smiling wryly, but he still had no choice but to continue pouring spirit power into his right arm.

  Ma Hongjun successively spit out three Phoenix Fire Wires on the Blue Silver Prison before finally blowing open this solid barrier. The enormous wings of flame behind him unfurled, throwing himself at Oscar, his fourth spirit ring simultaneously shining, his tyrannical follow up control ability reinforced with burst strength, Phoenix Heaven Cry Strike, launched.

  First putting aside whether Oscar had the speed to dodge the Phoenix Ascension, even if he could, next, Ma Hongjun could inevitably display his potent burst strength. Under constantly unleashed attacks like waves beating the shore, still unfamiliar with Tang San’s spirit abilities, spirit power also largely consumed, it would be very difficult for Oscar to hold out.

  Just at this moment, silvery light flashed once again in Oscar’s eyes. Everyone felt a flash before their eyes, and the originally one Oscar had turned into two. From the hands of this second Oscar, countless Blue Silver Emperor flew directly to block Ma Hongjun.

  Mirror Doppelgänger, the ability of the mirror skull bone. After launching the effects of the mirror skull bone, Oscar’s mirror sausage duplication effect grew by ten percent, in other words, the originally seventy percent spirit ability duplication effect grew to eighty percent. At the same time, it made an exactly identical clone of him, this clone possessed eighty percent of the main body’s power, and lasted for one minute.

  These were all the benefits accorded to Oscar by that twenty thousand year cultivation Mirror Image Beast, that ten percent amplification was the special result of absorbing both the spirit ring and spirit bone of the same spirit beast.

  Suddenly faced with one more Oscar, Ma Hongjun was immediately somewhat unprepared. Even though under his tyrannical burst strength, that twenty percent weaker body was unable to harm him, it was still enoug
h to block him. Amidst a loud explosion, the Phoenix Cry Sky Strike landed on the doppelgänger. And immediately, Oscar’s long prepared Blue Silver Overlord Spear was also finally completed.

  The doppelgänger was defeated by the Phoenix Cry Sky Strike without the slightest suspense, but that pure gold Blue Silver Overlord Spear was already in front of Fatty.

  Ma Hongjun’s had plentiful combat experience, a lot more than Oscar who had only just touched on close combat recently, and wasn’t the slightest bit frantic in a crisis, right arm lifting, rich flames shot out, becoming a three meter long fire phoenix, meeting the Blue Silver Overlord Spear’s attack from the front.

  This was the ability of the immolation flame right arm bone awarded to ma Hongjun after the conclusion of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, Phoenix Burst Strike. After combining the spirit bone and his spirit, this ability had formed. And the instantly erupting tyrannical burst attribute flame attack was powerful, in no way inferior to the final strike of the Phoenix Cry Sky Strike. It also consumed very little spirit power. It might be called Ma Hongjun’s secret weapon. It was also after possessing this spirit bone that his phoenix flames gained the explosive attribute, giving him no small advantage against flame immune characteristics like Tang San’s.

  Hong——

  A violent explosion suddenly erupted, intense spirit power fluctuations soaring in all directions, Bone Douluo’s figure flashed, already guarding in front of Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengzhi. And Tang San swiftly retreated a few steps.

  The intense spirit power pulses made the log house behind them tremble, fortunately the two controlled the collision of their abilities into the air as much as possible, avoiding any irreversible results.

  Ma Hongjun was right now in the stun effect added to the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, but Oscar wasn’t feeling any better. He wasn’t Tang San, and even though the Blue Silver Emperor had the fire immunity, he himself didn’t. Further adding the large amount of spirit power consumed by the doppelgänger breaking, right now he was unable to mount any pursuit. If the fight continued, the victor would inevitably be Ma Hongjun.

  Of course, this wasn’t to say that Oscar’s spirit ability was weak, but rather due to him creating the clone mirror sausage on the scene, instead of making it in advance, that led to his spirit power being insufficient, unable to support more spirit abilities, and he was also unfamiliar with using Tang San’s spirit abilities.

  However, Oscar clearly didn’t want to concede at this point, his right hand extending, black light rushed out, Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer astonishingly appearing in his grasp. Unfortunately, his wrist dropped, the Clear Sky Hammer falling to the ground and disappearing.

  Under the influence of Xiao Wu’s spirit bone, after Tang San’s Clear Sky Hammer evolved, it’s weight had already reached a terrifying eight hundred jin[1], that wasn’t something the present Oscar could move. He only cloned Tang San’s spirit abilities, not Tang San’s physique.

  Ma Hongjun now also recovered from the stunned condition, clearly seeing the appearance of the Clear Sky Hammer in Oscar’s hand falling to the ground, he couldn’t help saying:

  “Fuck me, little Ao, when did you get even both of third brother’s spirits?”

  Oscar smiled wryly:

  “I can use them temporarily. I’m still not practiced. Moreover, I consumed too much spirit power before.”

  To the side, ning Fengzhi had already recovered from the shock,

  “Just hold on here. Oscar, can’t you explain the effects of this sixth spirit ability for us? Also, if I’m not mistaken, you should also possess a spirit bone.”

  Ning Fengzhi was after all the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School master, he had already seen a great many things from this battle between Oscar and Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun wasn’t just some common Spirit king, with his strength, ordinary Spirit Emperors wouldn’t be his opponents either. Oscar clearly wasn’t practiced with the spirit abilities he copied, and had still consumed a substantial amount of spirit power with the clone ability, but even so, still wasn’t at a disadvantage while contending against Ma Hongjun for a while. For a food system Spirit Master, this was already extremely stunning.

  Oscar didn’t hide it either, in his heart, Ning Fengzhi was his future father in law.

  “My sixth spirit ability comes from a twenty thousand year Mirror Image Beast, the effect is duplication. As long as I have a drop of blood from a Spirit Master, I can create a clone mirror sausage through my spirit ability. After anyone uses it, they will possess the spirit abilities of the blood donor Spirit Master at seventy percent strength for three minutes. If the user’s spirit power level isn’t equal to the donor’s, then, they can only duplicate the spirit abilities up to that level. In other words, if little San was seventieth rank, and I sixtieth rank, then I could only duplicate the spirit abilities within the first sixty ranks, and not use the seventieth spirit ability, Spirit Avatar. You’re right, I already have a spirit bone, my luck was good, this spirit bone is also from that Mirror Image Beast, the ability is Mirror Doppelgänger, the Doppelgänger will possess eighty percent of my strength when I use it. At the same time, this spirit bone will increase the effect of the clone mirror sausage for me by ten percent, raising the strength of the cloned abilities from seventy to eighty percent.”

  Whether Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, or Tang San, Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong, everyone listened very earnestly. Hearing Oscar’s explanation, Ning Fengzhi exhaled slowly,

  “Luck will always befall those prepared, this isn’t as simple as a matter of luck. In these five years, you’ve actually invested more than I could imagine. Oscar, now I’ll give you a choice. Little San told me that he’s preparing to establish a sect called Tang Sect. But I don’t want you to enter this sect, but return with me to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School needs your talent. As long as you return with me, I’ll agree to you and Rongrong.”

  “Dad——”

  Ning Rongrong protested resentfully.

  Ning Fengzhi’s expression immediately turned solemn,

  “Girl, this relates to the prosperity of the sect. Before, Oscar didn’t have the strength to protect you, but since he does now, I’ll cultivate him even better. Have him enter the sect, work for the sect, this will reduce the resistance to the two of you by a lot.”

  Hearing Ning Fengzhi’s words, Oscar couldn’t help looking distracted. He was also an intelligent person. He understood clearly that Ning Fengzhi was having him choose between his feelings for his brother Tang San and for Ning Rongrong.

  Just at this moment, Tang San’s tiny voice echoed by Oscar’s ear,

  “Hurry up and agree with uncle ning, this is your best chance. You’ve been out learning from experience for five years, what was all these years of effort for? Even if you’re at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we’ll still be brothers.”

  Oscar looked in Tang San’s direction, saw the meaningful look Tang San gave him. He knew that Tang San had just now compressed his voice to a string to remind him, the reason he didn’t speak openly, was because he hoped he could easier obtain Ning Fengzhi’s approval.

  Turning his head, his gaze fell on Ning Rongrong’s face. Ning Rongrong’s expression was clearly somewhat complex, also somewhat perplexed. She of course hoped to be together with Oscar, but she also didn’t want the feelings between the two of them to affect the relationship of the Shrek Seven Devils.

  Oscar’s gaze finally returned to Ning Fengzhi, gently shaking his head,

  “I’m sorry, sect master Ning, I can’t agree to your request.”

  “Little Ao——”

  Tang San anxiously called out.

  Oscar raised his hand at Tang San, blocking him from speaking further, saying to Ning Fengzhi:

  “Uncle ning, I love Rongrong, I want to love her with my all. But, Tang S
an is my brother. Even if he’s a heaven warping genius, I admit I’m not his equal, right now is when he needs my assistance the most, when he needs brothers the most. Whether for vengeance against Spirit Hall, or to resurrect Xiao Wu, none are easy matters. If I chose to leave him for Rongrong now, I’m afraid I couldn’t forgive myself in all my life. But at the same time I don’t want to give up on Rongrong, I will definitely use my own way to move you, there will definitely be a day when you agree to let me and Rongrong be together.”

  Ning Fengzhi watched Oscar with a strict gaze. Oscar’s calmly returned his gaze. Having said his peace, his heart was entirely free from worry. Brothers and lovers were equally important, he absolutely wouldn’t give up on any one of them.

  Gradually, Ning Fengzhi’s gaze softened, smiling faintly,

  “Oscar, even though your answer is very cunning, I have no choice but to admit that this is the most perfect answer I could hope for. A man who gave up his comrades for women, wouldn’t be worthy of trust. You’ve already moved me. Properly help little San. I hope to see the glory of you Shrek Seven Devils again.”

  Oscar looked dumbstruck at Ning Fengzhi, then understood. What he said just now was only a test for him.

  “Sect master Ning, then you agree to me and Rongrong?”

  Ning Fengzhi’s brows wrinkled slightly,

  “You’re still calling me sect master Ning?”

  It might be from excitement, but Oscar’s response was also a bit quick, blurting out,

  “Father in law.”

  Seeing Oscar’s excited appearance, Ning Fengzhi laughed in spite of himself,

  “That’s also a bit too early. Call me like little San does.”

  Oscar somewhat awkwardly scratched his head, then called him uncle Ning. When he called him father in law, Ning Rongrong had already turned around and run away from embarrassment. She and Oscar had already obtained her father’s approval, there wasn’t anything else to worry about.

  Ning Fengzhi didn’t let Tang San and the others see him off, and directly disappeared from the forest with Gu Rong, Oscar still with a foolishly giggling appearance.
