Astral Dou Qi VS Dark Dou Qi

The clash between Dou Zong was naturally extraordinary.

Even if Xiao Lin and Kuang Feiyu were only testing each other, that casual strike was already enough to require Dou Huang expert to deal with seriously.

After Xiao Lin shattered the stream of Dou Qi that Kuang Feiyu, he suddenly felt a black shadow flash before his eyes. His opponent had actually transformed into a dark light and was closing in on him!

To be honest, Xiao Lin was also a little surprised. He didn't expect Kuang Feiyu to choose to engage in close combat with him!

It's important to understand that at the Dou Zong stage, most of the time, battles between opponents involve a chaotic barrage of various Dou Technique.

Close combat, while not entirely nonexistent, is certainly rare.

Because close-quarters combat like this is prone to accidents.

Even Xiao Lin, after awakening his Past-Life Wisdom, has never fought a close-quarters battle again, relying entirely on Dou Technique.

In Xiao Lin's memory, this long-awaited close combat was something he had only experienced on the battlefield before he awakened his Past-Life Wisdom.

"This is exciting! It's been a long time since I've felt this thrilled. I'll play along with you then!"

This time, Xiao Lin decided to forgo using the Heavenly Realm Soul Power and wanted to fight solely with his own cultivation as Three-Star Dou Zong!

He wanted to experience what it felt like to fight against someone of a higher level.

Therefore, when Kuang Feiyu transformed into a dark light and rushed towards him, Xiao Lin not only did not retreat, but also withdrew the Heavenly Realm Soul Power he had previously released and went to meet it head-on.

"Huh? You have guts! A Three-Star Dou Zong fighting Five-Star Dou Zong like me in close combat?"

Xiao Lin's actions almost made Kuang Feiyu laugh in anger.

To explain why close combat decreases after reaching the Dou Zong.

It's actually quite simple.

Because at this stage, the level of one's Cultivation Method and the strength of one's Dou Technique have a significant impact on battle.

Although Kuang Feiyu sees him as Five-Star Dou Zong fighting against Xiao Lin, Three-Star Dou Zong, he cannot be certain whether Xiao Lin's Cultivation Method is of a higher level or whether his Dou Technique are stronger.

If the answer is yes to all of them, then he is not confident of defeating Xiao Lin, even if there is a two-star difference between them.

After all, this isn't like the Dou Sheng stage; the two-star difference between Dou Zong isn't very significant.

However, in close combat, it's often not advisable to freely unleash Dou Technique.

In this way, the difference between the two stars becomes very obvious.

But since Xiao Lin went along with his wishes, do you think Kuang Feiyu wouldn't be amused and annoyed?

In his view, Xiao Lin was looking down on him!

Moreover, both his Dou Technique attributes and the Dou Technique he has mastered are very suitable for close combat!

Sure enough, upon seeing Xiao Lin approach him, Kuang Feiyu's lips curled into a cruel smile.

Alright, today he's going to tear a Dou Zong apart!

"Shadow Strike!"

In mid-air, one of the figures that was originally charging towards the other suddenly increased its speed by more than double!

That was Kuang Feiyu using a Movement Technique he had mastered.

Dark-Attribute Dou Qi!

The moment Xiao Lin saw Kuang Feiyu unleash his Dou Technique, he made a judgment in his mind.

"No wonder you wanted to fight me in close combat, you actually use Dark-Attribute Dou Qi!"

At this moment, Xiao Lin thought of Ling Ying from the Original Work, who was jokingly referred to by many netizens as the strongest Dou Emperor of the Gu Clan.

The other party is a user of Dark-Attribute Dou Qi.

This is a type of Dou Qi attribute that is very suitable for concealment.

Of course, since it's suitable for stealth, it's also suitable for assassination and close combat.

Sure enough, when Kuang Feiyu used the dark attribute Dou Technique "Shadow Strike," he found himself holding an exquisite dagger in his hand.

At this moment, Kuang Feiyu transformed into a Dark Shadow assassin, intending to take Xiao Lin's head.

"However, in close combat, I'm not weak either."

Seeing Kuang Feiyu appear in front of him in the blink of an eye, slashing at his neck with a dagger, Xiao Lin chuckled.

"Swish"

The exquisite dagger sliced open Xiao Lin's neck, but as Kuang Feiyu had expected, no blood spurted out.

Instead, Xiao Lin's figure transformed into a streak of starlight and vanished from the spot.

Kuang Feiyu's dagger merely sliced through the afterimage left by Xiao Lin in place.

With a flash of starlight, Xiao Lin appeared behind Kuang Feiyu without anyone noticing!

Seven-Star Void Step!

The unique Movement Technique belonging to Xiao Lin.

Within seven steps, Xiao Lin could reach any place within his field of vision.

Just now, Xiao Lin had only taken one step.

"Crunch"

Xiao Lin, appearing behind Kuang Feiyu, didn't give the other party any time to be surprised. He directly clenched his right fist and smashed it towards the back of the other party's head.

As Xiao Lin threw his punch, a layer of starlight covered the surface of his right fist.

That was proof that Xiao Lin had condensed his Astral Dou Qi into his fist.

What may seem like an ordinary punch could actually explode if it landed on Kuang Feiyu's head.

However, Kuang Feiyu was, after all, Five-Star Dou Zong expert, whose Dou Qi cultivation was two stars higher than Xiao Lin's, so it was impossible for him to fall for the attack so easily.

Upon hearing the sound of something cutting through the air behind him, he didn't hesitate at all. He ducked and simultaneously slashed behind him while retracting the dagger.

Xiao Lin's fist collided with Kuang Feiyu's dagger, producing a metallic clang.

Because both of their attacks were imbued with Dou Qi.

Naturally, when the two collided, a ripple of starlight and a ripple of Dark Shadow spread outwards simultaneously.

However, Kuang Feiyu was caught off guard and managed to block Xiao Lin's punch, but the immense force still sent him flying.

Although Kuang Feiyu wasn't seriously injured, he was definitely in a sorry state.

Xiao Lin didn't give his opponent a chance to catch his breath and continued charging forward.

Take advantage of your weakness and kill you!

Xiao Lin understood this principle.

Therefore, just as Kuang Feiyu regained his footing, Xiao Lin was already right in front of him.

At the same time, Xiao Lin had already extended his right hand and pointed a finger at Kuang Feiyu's brow.

"God-Slaying Finger!"

As Xiao Lin shouted, a deadly sense of crisis surged into Kuang Feiyu's heart.

Without any hesitation, he began to use his most secret skills.

"Shadow Doppelganger!"

Originally within Xiao Lin's attack range, Kuang Feiyu suddenly found himself with two people on his left and right!

Xiao Lin's God-Slaying Finger also missed its target entirely.

As for Kuang Feiyu, who had become two people, Xiao Lin couldn't see any difference.

They had the same build, wore the same clothes, had the same Dou Qi spirit, and even held the same dagger!

But he went from being one person to being two.

The Shadow Clone Dou Technique is Kuang Feiyu's trump card.

However, he didn't expect that Xiao Lin would force him to reveal himself so soon.
