Tang Feng vs. Zhao Wuji! The Terrifying Strength of a Soul Saint!

Tang Feng looked at her.

She slowly ate the candied fruit.

"Why are you looking at me?"

"There's still half left over there."

"This side is easier to reach."

Qian Renxue held the remaining candied fruit out before Tang Feng again.

The slender bamboo skewer was pinched between her fingers.

Their fingertips touched once more.

Tang Feng did not take it immediately.

Neither did she let go.

"Still eating?"

"Didn't you say I was too slow?"

"Then I'll wait for you."

Tang Feng took the candied fruit.

Qian Renxue's fingers slowly brushed past his.

She withdrew her hand and walked ahead.

The night market had already come to an end.

Beyond it lay a quiet long street.

High courtyard walls rose on both sides, with thick branches and leaves extending from within.

The wind passed through the treetops.

Leaves rustled softly.

A carriage without a royal crest was parked by the roadside.

The coachman sat in front, never looking toward them.

Qian Renxue stopped beside the carriage.

"I'm leaving."

Tang Feng nodded.

"Mm."

She raised her foot onto the carriage shaft.

Her white skirt swept past the carriage door, then stopped halfway.

Qian Renxue turned back.

"You don't have anything else to say?"

"Next time, we'll try a different wine."

A smile returned to her eyes.

"It has to be stronger than today's."

"Fine."

"Still at that tavern from before?"

"Fine."

Qian Renxue held the carriage door.

Her long golden hair fell before her.

"Do you only know how to say fine?"

Tang Feng looked at her.

"I'll go."

Only then did she enter the carriage.

Before the curtain fell, Qian Renxue looked at Tang Feng once more.

"Don't forget."

The carriage slowly drove away.

Its wheels rolled over the stone pavement and soon vanished at the end of the long street.

Tang Feng finished the last bite of candied fruit and placed the bamboo skewer into a bamboo tube by the road.

He turned and headed toward Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The city gates had not yet closed.

After leaving Heaven Dou City, Tang Feng did not take the main road leading to the academy's front gate.

He followed a trail at the foot of the mountain.

Blue Silver Grass grew thickly along both sides of the path.

Moonlight fell over the blades of grass.

The night wind stirred wave after wave through them.

Tang Feng suddenly stopped.

The surrounding Blue Silver Grass carried back no sounds of insects.

Nor did the forest ahead hold any trace of soul beast activity.

This stretch of mountain road was too quiet.

Blue-gold light shone from Tang Feng's right palm.

His spiritual power rapidly spread through the roots of the plants.

Ten meters.

Fifty meters.

One hundred meters.

A heavy surge of Soul Power entered the Blue Silver Domain.

The other party stood deep within the forest.

He no longer continued hiding.

Heavy footsteps crushed fallen leaves.

Zhao Wuji emerged from behind a tree.

He wore a gray fitted outfit, his thick arms hanging at his sides.

Seven Spirit Rings slowly rose from beneath his feet.

Yellow.

Yellow.

Purple.

Purple.

Black.

Black.

Black.

The pressure of a Soul Saint enveloped the entire mountain road.

Nearby branches bent downward at the same time.

Tang Feng looked at Zhao Wuji.

"The vice dean of Shrek Academy."

Zhao Wuji stopped more than ten meters away.

"You can still recognize me in the middle of the night."

"You didn't cover your face."

"There was no need."

The Mighty Vajra Bear Martial Soul appeared behind him.

A colossal bear silhouette stood among the trees.

The ground cracked repeatedly beneath the pressure of his Soul Power.

Tang Feng asked, "Did Dai Mubai send you?"

"This has nothing to do with them."

Zhao Wuji raised his right hand.

Earth-yellow Soul Power covered his palm.

"You defeated Shrek's students one after another. It's already affecting their cultivation."

"So you plan to kill me?"

"You can only blame yourself for growing too fast."

Zhao Wuji took a step forward.

The soil beneath his feet suddenly sank.

"If we let you live, then when they see you in the future, they won't even have the courage to make a move."

Three Spirit Rings rose beneath Tang Feng's feet.

The Ruination Blue Silver Emperor grew from his left palm.

Dark-blue vines spread across the ground in every direction.

The Blue Silver Domain locked onto the changes in Zhao Wuji's Soul Power.

"A Soul Saint has come to kill a Soul Elder."

Zhao Wuji's seventh Spirit Ring slowly lit up.

"The dead won't tell anyone about tonight."

The massive bear silhouette abruptly solidified.

Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar!

Zhao Wuji's body rapidly expanded.

Earth-yellow fur covered his arms.

Mighty Soul Power burst from the forest, flattening all the vegetation along both sides of the road.

Blue-gold light shone from Tang Feng's right leg.

The Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone had already begun operating.

Zhao Wuji raised his palm.

The black light of his seventh Spirit Ring covered the entire forest.

Mighty Vajra Palm!

An enormous earth-yellow palm print descended from above.

Before it even touched the ground, the mountain road had already collapsed layer by layer.

Tang Feng raised his left hand.

Dozens of Destruction Vines shot into the sky.

Ultimate Ice and Ultimate Fire erupted along the vines at the same time.

Icy blue and crimson light surged toward the palm print.

Boom!

The forest shook violently.

Dozens of Destruction Vines shattered layer by layer.

Ultimate Ice spread across the surface of the palm print, only to be crushed apart in an instant by Soul Saint-level Soul Power.

Ultimate Fire erupted immediately afterward.

Crimson flames covered the center of the palm print, yet only weakened its power slightly.

The earth-yellow palm print continued falling.

Tang Feng's right leg Soul Bone flared completely.

Blue-gold light wrapped around his body.

His figure shot into the sky, skimming past the edge of the palm print.

The next moment.

The giant palm fell completely.

Boom!

The entire mountain road collapsed downward.

Earth and broken stones blasted dozens of meters away.

Large swaths of Blue Silver Grass were crushed by Soul Power, leaving a gap in the Blue Silver Domain's sensing range.

Tang Feng hovered above the forest.

A streak of blood ran from the corner of his mouth.

That palm strike had not hit him directly, but the Soul Power impact brought by the Martial Soul Avatar had still injured his meridians.

Zhao Wuji raised his head.

"A Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone really is useful."

"But how many times can you dodge?"

His fifth Spirit Ring lit up.

Mighty Vajra Roar!

Earth-yellow Soul Power erupted from within the Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar.

Massive shockwaves spread in every direction.

Trees snapped in the middle.

Tang Feng in the air bore the brunt of it.

The Life Blue Silver Emperor immediately grew from his right palm.

Blue-Gold Vines intertwined and closed together, forming several layers of barriers.

The shockwave slammed into the surface of the vines.

The first layer of grass blades shattered.

The second layer cracked open right after.

The final layer of vines struck Tang Feng in the chest, sending him flying from midair.

Tang Feng's right leg lit up again.

The Flying Spirit Bone forcibly changed his direction.

He passed between two large trees, his foot landing on a thick branch.

The branch bent downward.

Before Tang Feng could steady himself, the Blue Silver Domain had already relayed the changes in Zhao Wuji's Soul Power.

Below!

He immediately left the branch.

A huge palm covered in earthy-yellow fur struck upward from below.

Crack!

The entire tree was snapped in half.

Zhao Wuji charged out from between the splintered wood.

The Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar expanded his body to several meters tall.

That bear paw swept across, blocking Tang Feng's route of retreat.

Tang Feng raised his left hand.

The third black Spirit Ring lit up.

"Blue Silver Illusion Slaughter Array!"

Countless dark-blue vine shadows grew from all around.

Tang Feng's figure merged into the vine shadows.

Zhao Wuji's palm came down.

The Tang Feng before him turned into dark-blue motes of light and vanished.

The real Tang Feng appeared more than ten meters away.

Nine Destruction Vines burst from the ground, wrapping around Zhao Wuji's arms, waist, and abdomen.

Dark-purple star patterns lit up completely.

Ultimate Ice covered the vines on the left.

Ultimate Fire covered the vines on the right.

Both powers struck the Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar at the same time.

Zhao Wuji raised both arms.

Earthy-yellow Soul Power erupted outward.

Bang!

The first four vines to approach exploded on the spot.

The remaining vines took the chance to wrap around his right arm.

Extreme cold spread rapidly along the earthy-yellow fur.

Half of Zhao Wuji's arm was covered in ice.

Another crimson vine coiled around his waist.

Flames concentrated at a single point, continuously scorching the Soul Power on the outer layer of the Martial Soul Avatar.

The earthy-yellow light around Zhao Wuji's body fluctuated violently.

He glanced at the vine around his waist.

"Ten-thousand-year soul skill, plus ultimate attributes."

"No wonder they lost to you."

Zhao Wuji suddenly spread his arms outward.

"But unfortunately, you're facing a Soul Saint!"

The sixth Spirit Ring lit up.

"Mighty Vajra Blast!"

The Soul Power covering his entire body exploded at once.

The ice shattered.

The crimson vine was forcibly blown apart.

The moment the power of destruction invaded the Martial Soul Avatar, it was scattered by even more abundant Soul Power.

Tang Feng suffered Martial Soul Backlash.

A sharp pain shot through his chest.

His body fell from the branch.

Just as the spirit bone in his right leg was about to activate, an immense gravitational force descended upon him.

The third Spirit Ring beneath Zhao Wuji's feet lit up.

"Gravity Enhancement!"

Tang Feng's body suddenly sank.

The Flying Spirit Bone was suppressed by gravity, and his movement speed dropped sharply.

Zhao Wuji took a step forward.

A massive bear paw descended from above.

The Blue Silver Domain relayed the attack trajectory in full.

Tang Feng saw it clearly.

But his body could not keep up with his perception.

The bear paw drew closer and closer to his head.

Tang Feng abruptly clenched his five fingers.

A mass of Destruction Vines rose from beneath him.

The vines did not attack Zhao Wuji.

They wrapped around Tang Feng's waist and pulled backward with all their strength.

The bear paw grazed his chest.

The black fabric instantly tore apart.

The Soul Power protecting his body was ripped to shreds by that single strike.

Tang Feng flew backward.

Blood sprayed from his chest.

Before his body even hit the ground, Zhao Wuji was already pursuing him again.

The Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar stomped across the ground.

With every step, the forest shook.

Tang Feng raised his right hand.

The Life Blue Silver Emperor wrapped around his chest.

"Life Nourishment!"

Blue-gold light seeped into the wound.

The torn flesh began to recover.

The severed meridians reconnected under the nourishment of life force.

Zhao Wuji gave him no time to recover.

The massive bear paw came down again.

Tang Feng controlled the Destruction Vines to block it in front of him.

Bang!

The vines and his body were both sent flying.

His back smashed through a large tree.

Splintered wood covered his black clothes.

Tang Feng braced himself against the ground and stood up.

Nearly half the Soul Power in his body had already been consumed.

Between a Soul Saint and a Soul Elder lay four entire major realms.

After Zhao Wuji activated his Martial Soul Avatar, both his strength and defense had risen across the board.

The Ruination Blue Silver Emperor could injure him.

But it could not restrain him.

Zhao Wuji walked over step by step.

"To endure this long against a Martial Soul Avatar, you're already stronger than every Soul Elder I've ever seen."

"It's over."

He raised his right palm.

The black seventh Spirit Ring continued to shine.

All the power of the Mighty Vajra Bear Avatar gathered into his right arm.

Tang Feng pressed his left hand to the ground.

The remaining Blue Silver Grass nearby returned to his senses.

Destruction Vines moved slowly beneath the soil.

One last chance.

Zhao Wuji's bear paw struck downward.

A streak of golden light suddenly cut through the forest.

Six white wings spread open in the night.

Golden hair fluttered in the wind.

Qian Renxue descended from the air and wrapped an arm around Tang Feng's waist.

Their bodies left the spot at the same time.

Boom!

The bear paw smashed the ground.

Dirt shot into the sky.

Qian Renxue landed with Tang Feng atop a distant treetop.

Her white dress fluttered in the airflow.

Six wings stretched out behind her.

Yellow.

Yellow.

Purple.

Purple.

Black.

Black.

Six Spirit Rings circled her body.

Holy radiance illuminated the entire forest.

Soul Emperor!

Tang Feng looked at the arm around his waist.

"You didn't leave?"

"The carriage had only reached the street corner when I noticed someone was following you."

Qian Renxue did not let go.

She glanced at the wound on Tang Feng's chest.

The hem of her white dress was stained with his blood.

"If I hadn't come back, were you planning to kill a Soul Saint by yourself?"

"I could try."

"You already did."

She raised her hand and wiped the blood from the corner of Tang Feng's mouth.

Her fingertips were stained bright red.

"You're hurt like this, and you're still trying to act tough?"

Tang Feng gripped her wrist.

"Deal with him first."

Qian Renxue turned to look at Zhao Wuji.

The smile in her pale-gold eyes had vanished.

The Six-Winged Angel martial soul stood behind her.

Holy Soul Power continuously gathered.

Zhao Wuji stopped walking.

His gaze fell upon those six wings.

"Six-Winged Angel."

"People from Spirit Hall?"

Qian Renxue descended from the treetops.

Golden light carried Tang Feng down with her.

She stood beside Tang Feng.

"You don't need to know."

Zhao Wuji looked at the six Spirit Rings beneath her feet.

"A Soul Emperor thinks she can stop me?"

"More than enough to kill you."

Qian Renxue raised her right hand.

A golden longsword condensed in her palm.

The fifth black Spirit Ring lit up.

"Sacred Sword!"

Sacred flames blazed along the blade.

The surrounding darkness was dispelled by golden light.

Zhao Wuji unleashed his Martial Soul Avatar, earthy yellow Soul Power covering both palms.

"Then we'll die together!"

He charged forward.

His massive body snapped the trees in his path.

The wings behind Qian Renxue fluttered lightly.

Her white figure met him head-on.

The golden longsword slashed toward the bear paw.

Boom!

Sacred flames collided head-on with earthy yellow Soul Power.

A massive shockwave swept through the forest.

Qian Renxue's long hair flew back.

Her sword arm bore the tremendous force, and the web of her pale hand split open at once.

Blood ran down the hilt.

She did not retreat.

All six wings folded forward at once.

Golden feather blades slashed at Zhao Wuji from both sides.

Zhao Wuji raised his other bear paw.

Earthy yellow Soul Power blasted the feather blades away.

Qian Renxue used the force of the collision to retreat.

Zhao Wuji immediately pursued her.

The Gravity Domain blanketed the forest once more.

The six wings on her back sank at the same time.

Her flying speed rapidly dropped.

The enormous bear paw was already striking toward her waist.

Dark blue vines suddenly rose from the ground, nine main vines wrapping around Zhao Wuji's right leg at once.

Tang Feng stood ten meters away.

His second black Spirit Ring lit up.

"Star-Binding Annihilation!"

Dark purple star patterns flowed along the vines.

Zhao Wuji's movements paused for an instant.

Qian Renxue seized the opportunity.

She spun her body in midair.

The Sacred Sword skimmed past the edge of the bear paw.

Sshk!

Earthy yellow Soul Power was sliced apart by the golden sword light.

Blood sprayed from Zhao Wuji's palm.

Qian Renxue passed by his side.

The golden longsword immediately slashed toward the back of his neck.

Zhao Wuji whirled around.

His left palm blocked the blade.

Sacred flames scorched his fur.

Charred marks continued spreading along his arm.

He forcefully stomped down with his right leg.

The Destruction Vines wrapped around his leg snapped apart one after another.

Tang Feng spread his five fingers.

The severed vines split apart in an instant.

Countless thin vines burrowed into Zhao Wuji's wounds.

Dark purple destructive power began eroding his flesh.

Zhao Wuji raised his palm and struck his arm.

Soul Saint-level Soul Power surged into the wounds.

All the thin vines were shattered, but that destructive power did not completely disappear.

The edges of the wounds gradually turned dark purple.

Qian Renxue landed beside Tang Feng.

Her right hand was still bleeding.

"His Martial Soul Avatar's defense is too strong."

"His wounds can be broken through."

Tang Feng raised the Life Blue Silver Emperor.

Blue-Gold Vines wrapped around Qian Renxue's wrist.

Gentle life force flowed into the web of her hand, and the split wound quickly stopped bleeding.
