Douluo Dalu - Volume 01-48

by Tang Jia San Shao

  Tai Tan and Niu Gao looked face to face, helplessly whispering:

  “Fighting, fighting, it’s more useful to speak with force with the old goat’s temper.”

  Tang San coolly watched this slim elder in front of him,

  “Senior Yang Wudi, what shall we bet?”

  When Bai He heard this to the side, his face immediately turned bizarre, and Bai Chenxiang used her hand to cover her mouth, keeping her laughter from escaping. They had already learned from Niu Gao that Tang San had bet with him on his first day here, and won. On the second day he had bet with Bai He. And when confronting this Yang Wudi, he was unexpectedly still betting.

  * * *

  [1] Yang Wudi - (杨无敌) “Poplar Unequalled”, the word for poplar is also a homophone to the word for goat, thus his nickname.

  Chapter 178: Tang San VS Yang Wudi

  Hearing that Tang San was going to have a bet with Yang Wudi, every faces around turned somewhat weird.

  However, although Tang San’s trick was trite, it was obviously useful, especially to assumptive and headstrong people like Yang Wudi, to whom his trick would make an extraordinary difference.

  Yang Wudi humphed coldly, “Are you qualified to bet with me?”

  Tang San smiled calmly, “Senior, don’t you dare?”

  Yang Wudi said contemptuously, “Bet how many rounds you can persist in my hand?”

  Tang San shaked his head, “No, I want to bet a battle. If I won, I want nothing but a promise of one thing, if I lose, you can do whatever you want.”

  Yang Wudi thought his ears must have some problem because such a boy that looked no more than 20 years old wanted to have a battle with him, a level eighty two Spirit Douluo. That was really an unendurable scorn.

  “Well, well, what a reckless cub. I’m wondering, what gives you the courage. Once you won, let alone one thing, ten things, one hundred things, my old life will be yours.”

  Tang San smiled slightly. His trick worked, and the only thing left was a real battle. Stepping back swiftly for five paces and distancing Yang Wudi, he saluted Yang with a junior etiquette:

  “Junior Tang San, Control System, level sixty six Spirit Emperor, please.”

  Sixty six? A question mark crossed Yang’s mind but he said coldly at once, “Yang Wudi, Power Attack System, level eighty two Spirit Douluo.”

  Spirits, were released simultaneously from their body.

  Although Yang was called old goat, that did not necessarily mean his spirit was goat, but just a joke of four patriarchs many years ago. Now, his spirit appeared, which was a four meter long lance.

  The long lance was thoroughly black, glistening freezing luster. The arm-like width pole was eight chi while the spearhead should be four Chi in length. Two yellow, two purple, four black, eight optimal spirit rings appeared simultaneously on the lance, moving up and down with the long lance and shining, blossomed incredibly gorgeous splendor suddenly.

  Sure, the spirit of Breaking Clan was lance, Soulbreaking Spear.

  With lance in hands, Yang did not attack instantly. As a senior and a Spirit Douluo, he was naturally waiting for Tang San to thoroughly release his spirit.

  Tang San knew this, of course, so he released his spirit calmly.

  With blue gold light glinting, a blue silver grass sprouted from his right hand and then six spirit rings which can totally symbolize his identity emerged, pulsed around his body up and down.

  There had been nobody that would be unsurprised seeing Tang San’s hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, Yang Wudi was naturally not an exception. Seeing that cardinal splendor, his originally disdainful eyes became grave. Although the opponent was just a Spirit Emperor, the red spirit ring presented on his body, which seemed impossible, the contempt in his mind diminished correspondingly.

  “Isn't your spirit Clear Sky Hammer?” Seeing Tang San’s spirit rings, Yang’s voice was obviously not that rigid and superior as before. Facing a strong and outstanding spirit master like Tang San, change of his emotion stemmed from respect.

  Tang San smiled calmly, “Senior will see my Clear Sky Hammer.”

  Saying that, Tang San leaned forward slightly and hunched his back, with a cracking sound, eight sanguineous spider lances appeared.

  Confronting opponent as strong as Yang Wudi, Tang San didn't have full confidence to win in fact. The feature of Breaking Clan was to attack, overwhelmingly attack, destructively attack. Only by sparing no effort might Tang San win this battle. Therefore, Tang San used his eight spider lances at the beginning.

  “This is...” Even Niu Gao and Bai He stared at Tang San, both of them were the first time to see Tang San’s ture strength.

  Tang San didn’t hide, he had already regarded these people as Tang Sect’s staffs in the future. It doesn't make any sense to hide from them, or he wouldn’t casually expose his red spirit ring.

  “This is my external spirit bone, eight spider lances.”

  “External spirit bone” was such a shocking word to them. If say hundred-thousand-year-old spirit rings was accessible to some degree, seeking for hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beasts, external spirit bone was absolutely treasure that can be only found by accident. Without extraordinary luck, accessing an external spirit bone was all but impossible.

  But Tang San found, the moment Yang Wudi gripped his black iron lance, the entire being became different. All the emotional perturbation seemed disappeared thoroughly and all his essence, qi, and soul were infused into the lance. Neither Tang San’s red spirit ring or the eight spider lances would affect his emotion.

  Having found this, Tang San’s face turned extremely serious. One can devote himself with a single mind to the spirit, seeing nothing but only a lance in his sight, such a state spelled much: the battle, was bound to be tough.

  Yang Wudi looked at Tang San stolidly, “Are you ready?” For him, no matter who’s the opponent, his mind would not be affected, only with perpetual faith to win would he achieve a predominant momentum in the battle and use his most powerful “break”. If he want to be invulnerable and invincible, he must hypnotize himself at first.

  “Please.”Tang San snapped deeply, moved his body, with countless blue silver emperors deluged around him.

  The reason why he dare challenge Yang was that he knew Yang’s weakness. All the ability of Breaking Clan was to attack, therefore as a Control System spirit master, relying on his Control Abilities, he would get the upper hand; the key to win this battle was whether he could limit the opponent effectively, whether he could make full use of his Control Abilities and dispel Yang’s momentum.

  “Hei.” Yang snapped abruptly, waved his lance forward, when the spearhead was pointed to Tang San, he had already blended into the lance. The strong momentum risen suddenly could be even more formidable than Tang San’s Slaughter Assault which had evolved from Deathgod Domain. A burst of incomparably sharp force thrusted into Tang San’s chest, and the body moved with his lance, without any unnecessary action, bumped into Tang San.

  Blue silver emperors moved, and Tang San’s first spirit ring shone, blue silver emperor Binding launched. Blue silver emperor swarmed and twisted to Yang’s body.

  Yang Wudi seemed didn’t see those blue silver emperor branches which were shining three colors of blue, red and gold light, didn’t change his action at all. And his eyes were also locked onto Tang San all the time, with an increasingly growing momentum.

  Just in a minute, Tang San had fully recognized Yang Wudi’s monstrousness. Spirit ring shone on his body was also the first one, a burst of explosive force spurted from his body abruptly, shocked those blue silver emperors around away, which even could not accomplish their ability effect. Whereas the momentum of himself had reached the peak in the explosive shock and made Tang San feel clearly that, in the presence of the dread momentum, his body had became even slower, as if he had already been pierced by that formidable long lance in his conscious.

  Pong—

  Yang’s body heavily ran into blue
silver emperors that had suddenly risen and become blue silver Prison, shocking force hit blue silver emperors, making a series of teeth-edging sounds. In order to hold him back, Tang San had to use his fourth spirit ability. At the same time, his third spirit ability was released, a huge spider web, covered to Yang Wudi, who was trapped in the silver blue prison.

  However, Tang San still underestimated the word “breaking” of Breaking Clan. Once Yang Wudi thrusted the lance, it was impossible to stop. Even if his body stopped, he still accomplished the attack. Slapping fiercely on the lance tail with his left hand, his body was still trapped in the blue silver prison, nevertheless the long lance accelerated abruptly and continued to run into Tang San’s chest. That unstoppable feeling, made everyone perceive a brumal smell.

  What a ferocious lance.

  Strong force brought horrific long lance, directly jacked up the spiderweb launched later, then pierced it, whose pearhead had already pointed to Tang San’s face.

  At that moment, Tang San’s body had become extremely slow under the covering of that horrific momentum and even could not take a step, let alone a shunning.

  The third spirit ring on the lance shone, bursted with a layer of black light, which was Yang Wudi’s third spirit ability, “explosion”.

  His first spirit ability “shocking” could shock away restrictions that were not strong enough, while “explosion” could escalate the attack power to a more formidable level. Once stabbed the target, the spirit power would yield formidable explosive force, giving the lance stronger destructivity.

  However, Yang Wudi’s attack didn’t go smoothly because Tang San’s body disappeared.

  Hundred-thousand-year spirit bone ability, teleporting,launched.

  At the next moment, Tang San had already appeared behind Yang Wudi, eight spider lances moved at the same time, thrust to Yang’s body in the blue silver prison. Bewitching red light penetrated into gaps upon the blue silver prison. Now, because of the unstoppable momentum before and the long lance hurled, Yang was in an all-out state where his defence was at the most weak point.

  The opportunity Tang San grasped was undoubtedly very well. Whereas the weakness of Breaking Clan was such conspicuous that how couldn’t they find a method to make it up?

  Yang Wudi didn’t even turn around, the Soulbreaking Spear reappeared in his hands, turning over the hands, backstabbed. The black spearhead thrust backward directly.

  Although eight spider lances were long, they were on Tang San’s back, no matter how close the distances were in eight directions, they could not be closer than straight line distance between Tang San and Yang Wudi. If Tang San still wanted to use eight spider lances to thrust him, then, the one that would be trusted, was him. Considering the destructivity attached to Yang Wudi’s Soulbreaking Spear, assuming that situation happened, this battle would be over, while whether Tang San’s eight spider lances would touch him was an unknown.

  Just using two lances, Yang Wudi had make Tang San’s evaluation to him escalate a level, a stab forward, a stab backward, two ferocious lances revealed the horrific desire to attack perfectly. The same horrific smell of attck, Tang San had just felt exclusively on Sword Douluo Chen Xin. But don’t forget, Chen Xin was hailed as the title douluo who had the strongest attack damage.

  Helplessly, Tang San had to change his action, leaned backward abruptly and kicked to the Soulbreaking Spear with right foot, simultaneously, with the action of leaning backward, four of his eight spider lances continued to move forward, thrust to Yang Wudi’s body. For bloodsucking and high poison of eight spider lances, as long as one of them stabbed, Tang San’s purpose would be achieve.

  However, Yang Wudi’s next action made Tang San have to use teleportation again.

  Hacked the lance, following the momentum of backstab, Yang Wudi slapped the pikestaff with his left hand, didn’t turn around, huge spearhead suddenly chopped to Tang San’s chest like a heavy sword. The situation was incredibly similar to the one before, which seemed internecine, but Yang Wudi’s attack would still be faster than Tang San’s. Nevertheless now for Tang San, there existed no chance to dodge and thus the second teleportation was yielded.

  This time Tang San appeared above Yang Wudi. Now, Yang didn’t eliminate blue silver prison around his body yet which hindered him. Tang San appeared above his body, scattering the Deathgod Domain from sky, pressed down with both hands, and eight spider lances thrust again. But this time, they aimed at Yang Wudi’s head. Eight spider lances aimed at the same point, whether attack speed or threatening force, had been much stronger than before.

  However, Yang Wudi’s movement was still simple: turned around, dragged back Soulbreaking Spear, and abruptly kicked his right foot upon the spearhead, then the huge Soulbreaking Spear span suddenly. This time, the fourth spirit ring on the Soulbreaking Spear also shone. The whole Soulbreaking Spear had already been rendered with black color entirely.

  Blue silver prison didn’t make any difference in obstructing Yang, but cut into two pieces by spinning Soulbreaking Spear, while that long lance full of destructivity slashed directly to Tang San’s body.

  What’s different from the situations before, was that Tang San’s movement was a little faster than Yang’s, his eight spider lances could certainly stab Yang first. However, it was just a little faster, in that moment, he couldn’t even use his teleportation. That is, surely he would stab the opponent or even kill him, nevertheless his body would be undoubtedly cut into two pieces by Yang Wudi’s formidable long lance.

  What a nice substitute of defence with attack, Tang San didn’t shun this time, he wanted to have a try and know, how strong was Yang Wudi’s attack at earth.

  Turning half of his body in the air, eight spider lances were thrown fiercely and bumped into Yang Wudi’s spinning Soulbreaking Spear.

  Ding—

  A strident blare made the entire parlour tremble for a while, and Tang San’s deflected body was hit away like a cannonball.

  Eight spider lances weren’t injured, but they even didn’t swing Soulbreaking Spear away. Had not Tang San used the force-borrowing skill, the lance had already been woven on his body.

  “Heh--”, Yang Wudi snapped loudly, with his fifth spirit ring shone, in a minute, a loop of black fire rose around his body, the lance didn’t change, but slashed on the ground. The next moment, his entire body had already soared to the midair and catched up Tang San.

  Hadn’t really touched the Soulbreaking Spear, one could never know how terrible the spirit was.

  Just now in a simple touch, the conjunction of Tang San’s back and eight spider lances had already been numb. Surging blood made his corner of the mouth spill a silk of blood. What was his body like? Should he be injured in the first hit. Although Yang Wudi was a spirit douluo while he was just a spirit emperor, he had a body with four spirit bones that was to an extent far stronger than Yang Wudi’s. But even it was, facing the categorical attack damage, his was still injured.

  Freezingly slaughterous smell of Deathgod Domain had been released, but facing the unstoppable Yang Wudi, Deathgod Domain even could not affect his momentum at all. Blue Silver Domain let injury in Tang San’s body recover well, but still could not hinder Yang Wudi who was approached rapidly.

  Teleportation? No, no more escape. Because Tang San found, every time he shunned Yang Wudi’s attack, the momentum on Yang’s body would increase a little. As a pure attack spirit master originally, if let his momentum continue to upgrade, Tang San would have no opportunity to win. In terms of spirit power, Yang was much higher than him. More consumption would just lead to a more adverse situation.

  So this time Tang San didn’t dodge, his whole body paused in the air, breathed deeply and turned around abruptly, eight spider lances behind his back was lifted. At the same time, the second spirit ability, Parasite, was released.

  Having been covered by blue silver prison, there had already been seeds on Yang’s body, which also paused in the midair while rushing into Tang San. Bu
t to Tang San’s shock, blue silver emperors that twisted his body just made him a little slower, black fire around Yang’s body unexpectedly destroyed his blue silver emperors at once. The black fire ramped and melt into the long lance, which got a three Chi spearhead made of fire instantly.

  Turning around in the midair, two iron galls had already been thrown from his hand, which were rightly Cluster Life Taking Soul Chasing Ball, simultaneously, he imbued his body with Qi, put his body down abruptly and landed to the ground.

  With a Pong sound, iron galls collided together, countless needles and poisonous fog ran into Yang Wudi.

  Yang Wudi’s movement was still not fast, but still proficient, Soulbreaking Spear in hands trembled abruptly, swept an arch in midair. Fog survived, but all the needles were wrung into powder immediately.

  Taking advantage of these two attack time, Tang San eventually landed. On his right arm, blue gold light concentrated abruptly, the fifth spirit ring on his body shone. When the gold light ramped to three meters long, it seemed like a bright golden spear.

  He had to bet, unless he had a perfect tactics, he knew, it was impossible for him to defeat Yang. Now wonder Bai He said Yang Wudi was the one in them four who was the strongest. He had been in a state where all could be substituted with attack. Let alone Spirit Douluo, even Title Douluo wouldn’t necessarily get the upper hand with him.

  In this kind of situation, what was needed was not headlong risk, but wisdom.

  Yang Wudi landed too after two blocks, but his attack seemed didn’t stop at all. Stamped his left foot, his body flew up appressed to the ground, the long lance was still pointed forward and assaulted to Tang San directly. While Tang San’s right arm had already been lifted now.

  The concentration of Blue Silver Overlord Spear had already finished, since he had got the sixth spirit ring, using his fifth spirit ring didn’t need too much time. With twinkle in his eyes, spirit power shaped up suddenly.
