Using His Own Way Against Him

The moment Yu Xiaofeng's Soul Power bomb exploded, it formed a storm that instantly neutralized the incoming attack.

"Looks like I released a little too much Soul Power. If I used this amount for Almighty Push, I'd probably die after only a few uses."

But after all that, Yu Xiaofeng had never intended to use the Spirit Power Ball to break the deadlock. He planned to use it to improve his precision. The Soul Power he released each time was different, so he decided to divide and use it in units of one hundred.

"Damn."

You really couldn't take someone like this too seriously, because you simply couldn't understand what he was trying to do.

The next five hours were an eye-opener for the man. He realized that his previous assessment of Yu Xiaofeng had been wrong.

"Almighty Push!"

Violent repulsive force swept outward as Yu Xiaofeng's words fell. It not only shattered the incoming repulsive force completely, but continued blasting toward the distance.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Explosions rang out as the space trembled from the blasts. Over the following days, Yu Xiaofeng barely had time to sleep. Like a startled bird, he recovered his Soul Power while preparing for the next battle.

"I never expected you to grasp your own Soul Power to such an extent. Looks like I underestimated you."

"Not bad. If you couldn't even do this, you wouldn't be worthy of being Tang San's opponent."

"For the next battle, I hope you can hold out."

"You may rest for a day. Get some proper sleep."

Hearing the man's words, Yu Xiaofeng immediately collapsed and fell asleep. He did not believe the man was lying to him. He was too exhausted; if he did not get a good night's sleep, he truly might die.

Elsewhere

Zhao Wuji led Tang San and the others toward the Star Dou Forest for training, openly stating that he would not help them until they encountered a thousand-year soul beast.

Tang San and the others' training was exhausting, but at least they had somewhere to sleep at night. Yu Xiaofeng, however, had now been thrown high into the air by invisible gravity. If he did not wake up soon, the moment the gravity vanished, he would surely be smashed to pieces.

"Huff... huff..."

His snores rose and fell, drool dripping continuously from the corner of his mouth. Watching this, the man said speechlessly, "You're certainly in high spirits. Do you think I really wouldn't dare kill you?"

As soon as he spoke, Yu Xiaofeng's body instantly plummeted. The howling wind tearing through the air woke him from his slumber. Opening his eyes, he looked at the ground rushing toward him and said, "It's starting already?"

"Damn it, do you think I'm easy to bully?"

Bang! Bang!

Two explosions rang out. Yu Xiaofeng twisted his body, and Soul Power beneath his feet formed two vortices. His feet stomped through the air with two crisp bursts, and he instantly came to a standstill in midair.

The gravity had already dissipated, yet Yu Xiaofeng still maintained his stance in the air.

Through his use of gravity and repulsive force, he had transformed his Soul Power in an instant to keep his body suspended in the air.

"Good boy. I didn't expect you to comprehend a floating soul skill so quickly."

"But you're still too weak. Let's see what you do this time."

As the man spoke, Yu Xiaofeng was attacked once more. The Soul Power fluctuations of these two attacks were the same as before, but the attacks had taken the form of ropes woven from Soul Power into a massive net.

Just as Yu Xiaofeng rapidly retreated, a roar came from ahead.

Yu Xiaofeng focused his gaze and cried out in alarm, "A ten-thousand-year soul beast?"

A soul beast with a human head and fish body stood suspended in the air within the space. Yu Xiaofeng could not help thinking of the legends of Atlantis.

"Could Atlantis really exist?"

"Forget it. I've already transmigrated to Douluo Continent, where all sorts of major things have become real. Why can't a legend be real too?"

Soul Power surged from Yu Xiaofeng's hands, and he copied its movements, forming a soul net of his own. Besides the crisscrossing strands, he added a thin layer of Soul Power barrier around the outer edge of the net to deal with unexpected situations.

One soul net descended from above while the other rose from below. In the blink of an eye, they collided.

The Mermaid Floating Beast's net exploded section by section. Each section produced an explosion of different power, and Yu Xiaofeng's soul net was instantly blasted into nothingness.

If he had not condensed an additional barrier, he would already be dead.

Yu Xiaofeng was shocked. From the explosions just now, he could tell that the Mermaid Floating Beast's soul net was not as simple as one plus one equaling two.

It first wove small nets using repulsive force plus gravity, then endlessly extended and layered them with gravity plus repulsive force, plus gravity.

Compared with the power of combining the repulsive force from his left hand and the gravity from his right hand, there was simply no comparison.

"So it can be used like this?"

"What kind of soul beast is this? It's absurdly powerful. If I hadn't gained a deeper understanding of controlling Soul Power over the past few days, I'd probably already be dead."

Yu Xiaofeng stared at the Mermaid Floating Beast before him in shock, a feeling of dread rising in his heart.

Seeing that the fishing net it had used for many years had been destroyed by a little fish on the other side, the Mermaid Floating Beast shrieked in rage.

It cast another soul net toward Yu Xiaofeng. The steel fork in its right hand was exactly like the one held by the toad in Vajra Gourd Baby.

At this moment, the thick-nerved Yu Xiaofeng really wanted to roar, "Were you sent here by the toad as reinforcements?"

Considering the weapon in its hand, Yu Xiaofeng had a sudden idea. He activated his third soul skill, Summoning, and Vajra Gourd Baby instantly appeared behind him. After letting out a roar, it aimed both arms at the Mermaid Floating Beast and unleashed a fierce barrage.

"Da-da-da-da-da-da!"

"Da-da-da-da-da-da!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Explosions rang out endlessly throughout the space. Yu Xiaofeng defended against the Mermaid Floating Beast's skills while using Soul Power to guide Vajra Gourd Baby's attacks.

Gradually, Vajra Gourd Baby's attacks began to undergo a qualitative transformation.

Repulsive force in the left hand, gravity in the right—it battered the Mermaid Floating Beast until it wailed for its parents. Perhaps Yu Xiaofeng's move had enraged it.

It let out a roar, and the steel fork in its hand emitted blue light. The instant the light flashed, Yu Xiaofeng was pulled toward it.

"What? Universal Attraction? Damn you!"

Yu Xiaofeng cursed loudly, feeling as though he had been copied. The next moment, the two blades of the steel fork glowed red, and countless red beams shot toward him.

Yu Xiaofeng cried out in despair, "Do you think you're Murong Fu? Using his own way against him?"

Yu Xiaofeng did not know what the Mermaid Floating Beast was laughing about, but it was obvious that it was mocking him as an idiot.

The red beams came densely packed. At last, Yu Xiaofeng understood just how helpless and bitter Er Lengzi and Elder Fang had felt back then.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Pfft! Pfft!

The red beams pierced Yu Xiaofeng's body, causing blood to spray out in great quantities.

The red beams gradually disappeared along with Yu Xiaofeng's miserable screams.
