Fire God Trial Taker vs. Ice God Trial Taker (3)

Holy crap!

The referee, who had just stepped off the ring, was so startled that he swore.

He subconsciously pulled open the control panel next to him.

He aimed at the green round button and slammed it down.

The incident happened so suddenly that even Ling Luochen's opponent, couldn't Huo Wu in time. The referee, who had just stepped off the stage, was even less able to react. It should be noted that the referee's Soul Power was only around level 40, which was not as high as Huo Wu's or Ling Luochen's on the stage.

Ling Luochen's outburst was sudden enough.

Huo Wu's counterattack was also swift and fierce.

The clash of ice and fire perfectly suppressed the buzzing sound of the shield being activated.

Fortunately, only the sound was suppressed.

The shield was eventually activated.

However, the damage from the Sunfall inevitably exceeded expectations.

A 150-meter-long streak of crimson flame, in an extremely condensed form, pierced through Ling Luochen's third Soul Skill, Ice Prison, after his divine transformation, like a ray. However, the existence of Ice Prison was not entirely useless; at least it disrupted the stability of the crimson flame streak, causing it to lose its extremely condensed form the instant it tore through itself. It transformed into an out-of-control pillar of fire, hurtling towards the audience behind Ling Luochen. It slammed directly into the transparent shield, and before the horrified eyes of hundreds of spectators on the field, and the astonished eyes of tens of thousands of spectators in this arena, it paused for a second before instantly piercing through the shield, like shattering a piece of glass, carrying its remaining force forward without looking back!

Holy crap!

The referee stood below the ring, his face filled with despair.

His hand unconsciously kept tapping the green button repeatedly.

However, it is clear that the shield cannot be refreshed indefinitely.

His efforts were in vain.

but...

This is just the preliminary round!

Are you guys going to go this far?!

The strength of this shield is comparable to the sixth Soul Skill of Defense Type Soul Saint!

Logically speaking, it should be enough to handle only the first round of the Preliminary Round!

Don't ask why it's not the Seventh Soul Skill.

Because the Seventh Soul Skill is entirely the Martial Soul Avatar.

Its effect is far inferior to other Soul Skill.

Therefore, the geniuses who can truly break through this shield can control their strength well and defeat their opponents without breaking through the shield. On the other hand, geniuses who cannot control their strength are also unlikely to break through the shield. After all, this is equivalent to breaking through the defense of a Defense Type Soul Saint head-on, which means that the contestant has the strength of Soul Saint or higher.

But who could have imagined this would happen!

With that pillar of fire crashing down, those hundreds of people directly opposite won't survive!

He's doomed!

Public opinion alone could drown him!

However, he has no other means at the moment!

The referee's authority is limited to activating the protective shield!

The red button is for calling for backup, to deal with emergencies!

Even if he were to strike, considering the falling speed of this fire pillar, which is about 100 meters in diameter, the pillar would already be crashing down by the time he strikes it. There simply wouldn't be enough time. Okay, let's assume there really is enough time. Even if a Title Douluo were to arrive, it would still take them some time, so it would still be too late!

No matter how you calculate it, it's too late!

In Lightning Flint, a variety of thoughts raced through the referee's mind.

In the Lightning Flint, the hundreds of spectators facing the pillar of fire only had time to turn their surprise into terror.

In the Lightning Flint, tens of thousands of spectators, who were not within the range of the attack but were also in the same competition area and sitting in other locations, couldn't help but hold their breath, a look of fear flashing across their eyes.

In the Lightning Flint...

"Ban!!!"

As the word was uttered, the fiery pillar, as frenzied as a fire dragon, seemed to have its scales plucked, its tendons pulled out, and its horns cut off, rendering it powerless. It transformed into a wisp of warm blue smoke, drifting freely upwards, as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.

But for the many titled Douluo present...

For the many Ninth Order powerhouses present...

They certainly don't believe that what just happened was a hallucination.

"One of the three eternally unchanging Demon God."

"The legendary great prophet."

"One of the symbols of the Demon Race."

"Ninth Order, seventh-level powerhouse, the Star Demon God!"

In the Dou One Star System, in the God Seal World, Yang Haohan, then the Temple Alliance Master and the Knight Temple Master Holy Temple, watched this scene that seemed like an illusion but was not. He clicked his tongue slightly, couldn't help but turn around, and said to Long Tianyin beside him, "Your Divine Throne of Order and Law, in terms of its influence on order and law, is comparable to that of the Star Demon God..."

"I am at Ninth Order, level 2."

"He is at level seven of the Ninth Order."

"If you're so capable, you can demote him to Ninth Order, second rank."

"I might be able to give you an answer."

"Now..."

Long Tianyin gave a wry smile and shook his head.

Such comparisons are like comparing poison. When discussing toxicity without considering dosage, it's all nonsense. Similarly, comparing strength without considering realm is also pointless. Anyone with a brain knows just how big the difference is between Ninth Order, level 2 and a Ninth Order 7.

If he can restrain the Star Demon God.

That can only mean that the Throne of God Seal is too powerful.

He's so strong that when their levels are equal, he can easily defeat the Star Demon God.

Yang Haohan also realized that he had spoken out of turn.

He nodded apologetically to Long Tianyin.

Then, he sighed and looked at the private room opposite. Even though they hadn't met, a heavy sense of pressure suddenly welled up in his heart.

Keep in mind that the Star Demon God didn't move at all.

A single word was uttered.

It's so far away.

It could also accurately extinguish the aftershocks of the attacks accidentally launched by the two little girls on the arena, without even causing any basic Spiritual Power fluctuations.

Such methods are truly awe-inspiring.

at the same time.

In places that cannot be seen.

The Smart Brain also automatically withdrew a program command to activate Second-Level Protection.

And under the spotlight.

The battle between Ling Luochen and Huo Wu has only just begun.

The previous encounters were merely greetings.

Ling Luochen gave Huo Wu a taste of her Huo Wu, and Huo Wu returned the favor. So, after giving Ling Luochen Ling Luochen taste of her own medicine, Huo Wu was not at all timid because she had almost accidentally killed hundreds of spectators. Instead, she completely let loose. Knowing that there was a strong person backing her up, golden flames immediately leaped out of her pupils. Using the guidance she had received from communicating with Violet, she used her Self-Created Soul Skill to accurately lock onto Ling Luochen's eyes.

"Whoosh!"

A sea of fire erupted, and hallucinations struck.

Huo Wu, who never expected Huo Wu to have this Ling Luochen her sleeve, instinctively tilted her head back, the burning pain in her soul causing her to momentarily lose her focus.

But Huo Wu showed no mercy to Ling Luochen just because she was a girl.

"Fourth Divine Transformation Technique: Divine Sun Crown!"

Golden flames gathered in the air to form a golden crown.

It landed on Huo Wu's head.

More accurately, it landed on the Martial Soul Eastern Lord, who was currently in the Martial Soul Possession stage with Huo Wu. However, because Eastern Lord's form was a rare afterimage, neither beast nor weapon, it merged with Huo Wu in the Martial Soul Possession state, making it appear as if it landed on Huo Wu's head. It was as if Deity in the sky was holding a coronation ceremony for Huo Wu, with a golden liquid flame dress hanging down, and even her originally fiery red pupils had an extra layer of gold.

"Sun God Flame, obey my command!"

Huo Wu a single finger to the sky, and a dazzling sun rose behind her.

Countless golden Core Flame burst forth from the great sun.

Like a hail of arrows.

It shot towards Ling Luochen, who was in a daze.

Each golden Core Flame contains a temperature hot enough to melt gold and iron.

A moment of distraction.

It truly turned the tide.

From defense to offense, Huo Wu's performance was truly breathtaking.

But Ling Luochen Ling Luochen, who has the backing of the Shrek Academy and is himself the God Trial Taker of the Ice God, will not be eliminated by these little tricks!

The flame in his dark eyes was quickly melted away by the ice and snow!

Such a swift reversal can naturally be reversed just as quickly!

The Ice Scepter, which had just loosened, was gripped tightly by Ling Luochen again!

She did not have a coronation ceremony.

but...

Second Soul Skill: Ice Armor!

"Divine Skill Enhancement: Ice God Shadow Garment!"

In contrast to Huo Wu's golden feather dress, a light white dress, as thin as gauze and adorned with ice crystal-like patterns, was draped over Ling Luochen's body. It looked silky smooth and complete, not pieced together.

It is Ling Luochen's only defensive Soul Skill.

Regardless of whether it is the original form of ice armor driven by Soul Power.

It is still the current form of ice armor driven by divine power.

Their defensive capabilities are undeniably strong.

Therefore, Huo Wu's explosive power may indeed surpass Ling Luochen's. For example, the previous Sunfall was so powerful that Ling Luochen dared not take it head-on. He could only take advantage of Sunfall's loss of control after breaking through the Ice Prison to dodge it. However, Ling Luochen's margin for error is much higher than Huo Wu's. If the same attack could seriously injure Huo Wu without any elemental Huo Wu, then if it hit Ling Luochen, it would at most cause him a minor injury.

However, that's still true.

Ling Luochen wasn't a stubborn person.

Facing the densely packed Fire Feather.

Even though she believed in her second Soul Skill.

They are also unwilling to take risks because they believe in them.

This was just a layer of insurance she put on herself to prevent being instantly killed by Huo Wu.

In fact, Huo Wu has Self-Created Soul Skill, so she naturally has one too.

Although the emergence of this Self-Created Soul Skill had some coincidental elements, it was because she couldn't beat Ma Xiaotao. After both of them were guided by Ye Qingcang and upgraded their Martial Soul attributes to the Ultimate Attribute, she still couldn't restrain Ma Xiaotao in the internal sparring match. Out of desperation, she developed this Self-Created Soul Skill with a certain degree of damage reflection to compete with Ma Xiaotao in the team sparring match. However, it is not absolutely impossible to use it here!

Or rather...

Compared to her, you... are far inferior!

Recalling Ma Xiaotao's terrifying outburst, although it was related to Ma Xiaotao current Soul Power Level — Ma Xiaotao at level 69 was undoubtedly stronger than Huo Wu at level 51—the normal comparison should be between Ma Xiaotao at level 51 and Huo Wu at level 51. However, for Ling Luochen, who had fought Ma Xiaotao for many years and grown up under that kind of pressure, the intensity Huo Wu on her was truly only average. "Mirror Flower Overlapping Shadows Thousand Faces!"

The index finger is long and slender, slightly bent, and gently touches the air.

Immediately, the movements changed from gentle to sharp.

A finger suddenly popped out!

It was like striking ice!

The air in front of me cracked inch by inch, like glass that had been completely shattered, exploding with layers of cracks, just like the shield that had just broken!

But the strangest thing is not that, but the cracks that are everywhere in the air!

These cracks are actually overlapping!

"Ice?"

"Refraction?"

"Distorted vision?"

Among the crowd, Shui Bing'er, who had finished her match and always regarded Huo Wu as her greatest enemy, came to watch the scene after defeating her opponent. Her pupils contracted, and she saw the essence behind these cracks earlier than most of the audience, and gasped.

That mindset of thinking that all the heroes in the world were nothing special was immediately discarded.

Previously, she did believe that among her peers, in terms of ice-type skills, apart from Ye Qingcang and Violet, she was qualified to call herself number one.

Even if you include Ye Qingcang and Violet.

She could also rank in the top three.

The main problem is that Violet is too well-rounded.

She had fought Violet before, and the latter could even create an Ice Phoenix using Alchemy. She had no sense of martial ethics and was indeed beaten speechless. In the end, when it comes to playing with ice, the Ice Phoenix is truly the strongest.

She was merely borrowing the power of her own Martial Soul.

Her Martial Soul is the Ice Phoenix.

She still needs to borrow, Violet creates directly.

Perhaps Violet doesn't know how to play with ice.

But all Violet needs to do is create someone who can play with ice.

So that's what she always thought.

But after meeting Ling Luochen, who was supposedly Inner Court student from the Shrek Academy in the second stage of the Dou Two, she realized for the first time how vast the world was and had to admit from the bottom of her heart that there were indeed beings who were no less than herself in the art of using ice, and perhaps even stronger.

Putting aside other things.

There's not much to say about Soul Skill.

Everyone hunts different Soul Beast, acquires different Soul Skill, and uses divine power as the driving energy, so the effects they release are naturally different. It can be said that this has no real value.

But Self-Created Soul Skill is different.

This represents the opponent's own realization.

Especially with this Mirror Flower Overlapping Shadows Thousand Faces, even she, Soul Master who is also a top-tier Ice-type Soul King, couldn't see any more tricks.

We can only see the general effects.

The underlying principles are still unclear.

So, if she were facing this move, how would she counter it?

Shui Bing'er subconsciously considered Ling Luochen as her imaginary enemy.

And continue to observe the battle on the field.

Unlike the calm and rational Shui Bing'er, Huo Wu's fighting style is similar to Ma Xiaotao's —reckless and impulsive. It seems that most fire-type Soul Master like to be reckless, while most ice-type Soul Master are relatively calm. In short, Huo Wu showed no intention of testing anyone. With a wave of her hand, she exuded a powerful aura, almost as if she was about to shout "Fire arrows!"

Countless Fire Feather resembled rockets that had been ignited.

Regarding the area where Ling Luochen is located.

Implement saturation fire coverage.

but...

"Fire is also a form of light!"

"As long as the temperature doesn't exceed the upper limit, it will definitely be refracted back!"

"Besides, your fire isn't hot enough!"

"You can't break my balance!"

Ling Luochen smiled, a rare occurrence for him.

"Mirror Flower Overlapping Shadows Thousand Faces" is her proudest work, the culmination of a great deal of her hard work.

Of course, it's not as simple as it looks.

Perhaps Huo Wu is very strong.

But it forced them to resort to this tactic.

Huo Wu has every reason to be proud.

And she, naturally, was even more proud and happy.

After all, this move was specifically prepared for Ma Xiaotao, aiming to counter her and targeting the Phoenix Meteor Shower move.

Therefore, the moment the Fire Feather fell, and the moment it came into contact with these cracks, it was completely swallowed up by these cracks!

The cracks are expanding at a rate visible to the naked eye!

So much so that it spread throughout the entire venue!

It's like being in a virtual world!

Every single crack!

"No, these aren't cracks..." Shui Bing'er's eyes widened, deeply shocked by Ling Luochen's creativity, to the point of exclaiming, "These are ice mirrors, ice mirrors that blend seamlessly with their surroundings. The so-called cracks are merely reflections at the intersections of the ice mirrors, like two mirrors placed together, and from a distance, you can see a black line at the intersection... But mirrors... should be able to enhance light!"

Shui Bing'er finally caught up with Ling Luochen's train of thought.

I understand this move now.

Unfortunately, for Huo Wu on the field...

She could only be led by the nose.

Because she doesn't play with ice, and doesn't know that the highest aesthetic of ice magic is to blur the lines between reality and illusion, concealing reality, which is essentially the same principle as illusion magic.

In an instant, cracks spread throughout the entire arena!

A two-hundred-meter-diameter arena suspended in mid-air!

Shaped like an upside-down large bowl!

Countless Fire Feather were reflected back!

It crashed down on Huo Wu!

"A mere trick!" Huo Wu sneered, oblivious to the danger. A golden fireball condensed in her palm, which Huo Wu then grabbed and crushed, as if grasping a still-burning sun. She then threw a powerful punch at the sky. "Don't you know I'm good at breaking through defenses with a single point? So what if you can deflect my attack?"

But the punch missed!

It wasn't just that he missed!

The golden, fiery fist passed through the falling Fire Feather in Huo Wu's bewildered gaze, as if passing through an illusion. Then, it was swallowed by the moving cracks. But the most bizarre thing was that these Fire Feather, which had just been proven to be illusions, inexplicably turned into physical objects and exploded layer by layer in Huo Wu's constricted pupils. The area where she was located, a circular area with a diameter of fifty meters centered on her, instantly turned into a sea of fire burning with smoke!

"Before the overlapping reflections, even distance cannot be determined..." Shui Bing'er pursed her lips, looking at the Huo Wu in the arena, and silently uttered the second half of the sentence in her heart. "Just like a mirror, two polished concave and convex mirrors can be combined to form a telescope, or conversely, a magnifying glass. Rather than saying those Fire Feather are illusions, it's more accurate to say that the distance between those Fire Feather was deliberately amplified by Ling Luochen. What is far can be near, and what is near can be far, replicating light and heat one-to-one, and even enhancing light and heat. Under these premises... the key is to shatter these ice mirrors, not to resist the attacks you launch... It's even possible that even Ling Luochen, who is currently standing there, is bait, a shadow reflected by one of the ice mirrors. You must use attacks containing real objects; otherwise, simple flames will only be completely reflected!"
