In terms of the total age of his Spirit Ring, Salas is at a disadvantage. However, he also has his own advantages: he is older and has rich combat experience, which is something Lin Hao cannot match at all.
Salas flapped his wings.
"Fifth Soul Skill - Ink Feather Evasion!"
Salas's true form instantly dissipated into a cloud of dark raven-feather mist, easily passing through the gaps in the golden waves without even touching the hem of his clothes.
Lin Hao thought to himself, "This Soul Skill is immune to energy attacks!"
Soul Skill that grant immunity to physical attacks are quite common—such as Kamui's and Xiao Wu's Invincible Golden Body. Soul Skill that grant immunity to energy attacks, however, are quite rare.
Spirit Master almost always use energy-based attacks. Salas truly lives up to his Platinum Bishop; possessing such a Soul Skill is indeed a headache.
" Lin Hao..." Ye Lingling couldn't care less about anything else and instantly summoned her Martial Soul.
A begonia flower appeared above Lin Hao's head, its petals falling to the ground, ready to heal Lin Hao at any moment.
"Bang!"
Salas punched Lin Hao's barrier. The barrier shattered, and his fist landed on Lin Hao's chest.
Lin Hao staggered backward. He lightly touched the ground with his foot, did three somersaults in the air, flipped behind him, and distanced himself from Salas.
Salas continued his attack on Lin Hao.
Lin Hao was taken aback, thinking to himself, "His fifth Soul Skill can also increase the strength of his physical body!"
The fifth Soul Skill, Ink Feather Evasion, grants immunity to attacks formed from energy, while also increasing the user's physical attack power.
call!
It's really weird.
This Soul Skill is extremely extended and enhanced in the direction of physics.
Facing the oncoming Salas, Lin Hao raised his left hand and threw a punch to exchange blows with his opponent.
"Bang!"
Lin Hao took a step back, while Salas only retreated slightly before flapping his wings and attacking him again.
"Bang bang bang!"
The sounds of attacks coming from the air could be heard.
After several dozen rounds, Lin Hao was slightly out of breath, even more surprised. His physical strength was extraordinary, enough to rank him among the best in the Douluo Continent.
However, Lin Hao found himself at a disadvantage against Salas.
Lin Hao was shocked. Wasn't Salas shocked too?
Salas was over eighty years old, and the sheer strength of his physical body when he used his fifth Soul Skill made him one of the four Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall.
Most Spirit Master in the Soul Master World are unwilling to fight Salas because of Salas fifth Soul Skill. Their mentality is similar to that towards Shi Nian and Meng Shenji.
However, his prized Soul Skill was almost brought to a draw by a junior.
It's a draw, but it's not a draw.
The two were not evenly matched; there was a difference in their strength. This slight difference was enough to tip the scales in Salas's favor.
Salas continued his attack on Lin Hao.
Lin Hao stomped his foot hard, causing the ground to crack and sink.
He leaped backward, creating a distance of more than thirty meters between himself and Salas.
At the same time, before his feet even touched the ground, Lin Hao's second Soul Skill lit up.
"Second Soul Skill: Sea Overturning!"
Eight waves, ten meters high, swept towards Salas.
Salas continued to batter the waves.
His figure, now transformed into the Martial Soul Avatar, weaved through the waves, ignoring their presence.
However, Salas was suddenly struck hard and was swept out by a subsequent wave.
Salas, soaked to the bone with blood trickling from his mouth, asked, "What did you do?"
He didn't understand where he went wrong.
Lin Hao didn't answer; the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
All secret techniques that are immune to physical and energy forms have a fatal flaw: they seem powerful, but they are limited by time.
In other words, Kamui cannot ignore physical obstacles indefinitely. Otherwise, wouldn't he be able to travel through planets?
Xiao Wu's Invincible Golden Body is easier to understand. It only grants immunity to physical attacks for three seconds.
Salas's fifth Soul Skill, while immune to energy-based attacks, also has a time limit. It cannot ignore energy-based attacks indefinitely.
One Sea Overturning Talisman wasn't enough, so Lin Hao used two.
Two Sea Overturning Talisman weren't enough, so Lin Hao used three.
If three cards aren't enough, then four; if four aren't enough, then five.
The waves were stacked on top of each other, just like the waves of the sea. Although the attack power of the first layer of the second Sea Overturning Talisman was far less than that of the last layer of the first Sea Overturning Talisman, Lin Hao wanted the effect of stacking. It was specifically designed to break Salas's fifth Soul Skill.
Begonia Douluo spoke up in time, urging, " Salas, come now!"
Lin Hao is right. When it comes to killing, as the patriarch of the Ye Clan, he really can't bring himself to risk everything and do it with Lin Hao.
He could protect Lin Hao, but he couldn't kill the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall.
Seeing that Salas was injured, Begonia Douluo promptly tried to comfort Salas.
Salas said, "No!"
Salas was secretly pleased that Begonia Douluo dared not interfere. The former was wary of his status, and he was also wary of Begonia Douluo's influence. If Begonia Douluo were pushed too far, it would be a disaster for Salas.
However, Lin Hao was different.
Lin Hao was all alone, with no background or connections, and seemed easy to bully!
The crucial point is... he's also a wanted person by the Spirit Hall.
Sixth Soul Skill: Ten Thousand Crows Take Flight!
As Salas's Sixth Soul Ring lit up, thousands of dark raven feathers transformed into a dense swarm of small raven phantoms, swooping down and blotting out the sky. Each raven phantom's sharp claws gleamed with a cold light, like a black rainstorm crashing down on Lin Hao.
At the same time, Lin Hao's fourth Spirit Ring lit up.
"Fourth Soul Skill - Demon Suppression!"
Lin Hao waved his hand, Demon-Suppressing Talisman fell to the ground.
Suddenly, the remaining black mist rose up, forming dozens of thick golden chains that wove into an impenetrable golden net in front of him.
This was originally a control-type Soul Skill, but Lin Hao cleverly used it for self-defense.
The golden light of the Demon-Suppressing Soul Skill collided with the crow shadows, producing a series of crisp sounds. Most of the crow shadows were shredded into black mist by the chains, but a few stray feather blades still grazed his arm.
The black mist recombines into the Ink Crow Avatar thirty meters away in the sky, and a fierce glint flashes in Salas's scarlet pupils.
"Eighth Soul Skill: Crow Feather Thousand Kill!"
All the scattered raven feathers and the surrounding black mist instantly converged towards his claws, condensing into a jet-black stream of light.
The black streak of light, accompanied by a sharp sound as it tore through space, rushed towards Lin Hao in the blink of an eye, causing the air to hiss as it was rubbed together.
Sixth Soul Skill: Star Plucking!
A dazzling starry sky appeared above Lin Hao's head, with countless rays of starlight falling from it, illuminating the entire Heaven Dou City.
"Gather!"
Suddenly, with Lin Hao's resounding shout, the falling starlight accelerated and condensed, forming a giant starlight blade in the air.
Lin Hao raised his hand high, the giant starlight blade hovering above his head.
"Cut!"
