Douluo Dalu - Volume 13 - The Fourth Spirit Ability Page 2


  The Phantom Tiger curled up its body as much as possible, making the area suffering the attack smaller in order to increase its defense.

  The Shrek Seven Devils’ cooperation was so implicit, Ning Rongrong’s hand supported the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, already releasing her three spirit abilities on the five people in charge of attacking.

  Besides strength and speed amplification, her third spirit ability, also a thousand year spirit ability, directly amplified spirit power. In other words, currently the effective spirit power of Tang San and the others was one hundred forty percent that of normal.

  The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s effect as the first support spirit had become more and more clear as Ning Rongrong’s strength grew.

  Of course, as a result of the spirit ability effects increasing, the consumption of Ning Rongrong’s own spirit power was no doubt immense. Amplifying three aspects simultaneously, even though she already possessed fortieth ranked spirit power, she could at most persevere for ten minutes.

  Intense explosions made the soil turn, the Phantom Tiger was like an angry wolf in a small boat, constantly rocked by the shocks. But it was indeed powerful, under this kind of attack it actually still didn’t collapse.

  When the White Tiger Meteor Shower finally ended, the instant all the explosions finished, suddenly the Phantom Tiger’s curled up body instantly unfolded. Immediately followed by an immense flash of black light and shadow bursting from within its body, going straight for Zhu Zhuqing.

  That black light and shadow suddenly condensed in midair into an identical form as the Phantom Tiger, with even the same size. Terrifying energy fluctuations made the air issue ear-piercing sharp hisses, as if cut open by that black light.

  The five Shrek Seven Devils in charge of attack now surrounded the Phantom Tiger, but it movements were really too fast, and nobody had expected that after just now having endured the White Tiger Meteor Shower bombardment and with blood flowing from its nose and mouth, it could still so quickly issue an all out attack.

  There wasn’t even enough time for Tang San to release Blue Silver Grass to save Zhu Zhuqing.

  A more than three thousand year spirit beast’s all out attack was terrifying, the Phantom Tiger’s attack capability couldn’t be any less than the Pink Queen. The reason it chose to attack Zhu Zhuqing was because behind her was the closest way to the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure.

  As long as it could break out from this situation, it could not only grab the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure, but also turn and escape.

  Unfortunately, this Phantom Tiger still underestimated Zhu Zhuqing’s strength and resolve.

  Confronting this black light and shadow attack, Zhu Zhuqing didn’t dodge or escape, her third spirit ring flashed with purple light, both hands like lightning folding over her head, the claw blades of the five fingers on each hand fusing together with astonishing speed, becoming a one chi[4] long sharp blade.

  Black light also rushed out from within Zhu Zhuqing, and her whole body seemed to become a part of that sharp blade, swinging both hands down to meet the black light released from the Phantom Tiger.

  This was the thousand year spirit ring ability Zhu Zhuqing obtained after reaching the thirtieth rank —— Hell Decapitation.

  Equally ear piercing tearing noises resounded, on both sides of the Hell Decapitation, the air distorted like rippling water, clearly splitting open.

  The black light blade only condensed in a straight line, and just as it struck down it heavily bombarded that Phantom Tiger’s transformed shadow.

  With the assistance of Ning Rongrong’s Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, this attack could be said to be Zhu Zhuqing’s most powerful attack at present.

  There was no noise of a collision, only a teeth ache inducing grinding sound.

  In midair, the Phanttom Tiger shadow paused before that sharp Hell Decapitation attack, and the instant the Hell Decapitation struck it was cut in half.

  But, this was after all only the third spirit ability, while this shadow attack could be said to be the Phantom Tiger’s all out attack. Its body already came charging closely behind.

  The might of the Hell Decapitation was in the end still by far counteracted by the Phantom Tiger’ far superior energy.

  Perhaps it was because it was stopped, after that black shadow halted, it immediately used even higher speed to strike at Zhu Zhuqing.

  And this moment was just after Zhu Zhuqing had just released her full strength attack, the dangerous juncture when new strength had not yet been born.

  A massive silhouette just like a shield moved across in front of Zhu Zhuqing, and without any fanfare struck out head on with a white furred tiger palm.

  With a loud bang, that massive silhouette swayed once, but still didn’t agree to retreat a single step. It was precisely the Evil Eye White Tiger Dai Mubai.

  Even though Zhu Zhuqing’s Hell Decapitation couldn’t completely cut open the Phantom Tiger’s attack, it could still fight for time. The instant he discovered the danger Dai Mubai had rushed over, just in time to shield Zhu Zhuqing.

  Using his tyrannical spirit power to shield her from the remaining attack.

  In spite of wisps of blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, Dai Mubai immediately revealed his overbearing side. Faced with the Phantom Tiger’s charge, condensing spirit power he released White Tiger Body Barrier, stiffly blocking the Phantom Tiger’s charge.

  Part 3 (TL by Bagelson)

  White Tiger collided with Phantom Tiger, a muffled grunt and a sharp hiss echoed practically simultaneously. Dai Mubai staggered back before turning, but that Phantom Tiger was also sent flying by him.

  A slender figure quietly appeared behind the Phantom Tiger, a pair of slender perfectly straight thighs quietly winding around its neck, Waist Bow launching, Xiao Wu completed a graceful backwards summersault in the air, and under the powerful strength of her Waist Bow the Phantom Tiger’s more than three meters long body was thrown directly into the air, and slammed back down heavily on the ground.

  There was an intense boom.

  In the blink of an eye, the Phantom Tiger was stunned.

  A flicker of red light, Ma Hongjun’s plump body already since long ago waited where the Phantom Tiger fell, and the instant Xiao Wu’s long legs released it, his right fist also accurately struck the ground. He and the Phantom Tiger were completely enveloped within distorted air.

  A resonant phoenix cry once again echoed in the Sunset Forest, and along with an immense bird of flame soaring up, and the large Phantom Tiger no longer even whimpered.

  From Zhu Zhuqing halting the Phantom Tiger with Hell Decapitation, to Dai Mubai tyrannically blocking it from the front and sending it flying, Xiao Wu’s midair Soft Skill linking up to Ma Hongjun’s right hand restricting it with Phoenix Cry Sky Strike, all of this flowed as smoothly as running water and moving clouds.

  Hong——

  The Phantom Tiger’s body covered in flames fell heavily on the ground. Even if it wanted to crawl it wouldn’t be able to succeed.

  The red hot phoenix flames were constantly eroding its body. Successively enduring Dai Mubai’s White Tiger Meteor Shower and Ma Hongjun’s Phoenix Cry Sky Strike, even though this Phantom Tiger was any number of times stronger than the Pink Queen, in the end it still suffered life threatening injuries.

  “Zhuqing, do it.”

  Tang San’s calm voice promptly echoed.

  Zhu Zhuqing moved around Dai Mubai, transforming into a series of incomplete shadows, and the instant the Phantom Tiger drew its last breath she relied on her Hell Rush Stab to make the last attack, her right hand claws thrusting into the Phantom Tiger’s left eye to reach its brain, ending its life.

  Ma Hongjun opened his mouth wide and inhaled, withdrawing the phoenix flames on the Phantom Tiger and polluting Zhu Zhuqing’s arm, putting a satisfactory period to this time’s perfect kill scene.

  But at this moment, Grandmaster’s somewhat impatient voice
suddenly reached them,

  “Little San, quickly take back your Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure.”

  Now that the Shrek Seven Devils paid attention, on their side they had dealt with the Phantom Tiger, but on the other side, Zhao Wuji, Flender and Liu Erlong were all already fighting.

  They didn’t know when, but during the fight seven wildly different spirit beasts had appeared, in the process of besieging Flender’s trio. If it wasn’t for the trio’s immense strength, if even one slipped by them it wouldn’t have been easy for the Shrek Seven Devils to handle.

  Originally, when the Phantom Tiger appeared and drew the attacks of the Shrek Seven Devils, one after another seven spirit beasts arrived. Tang San’s seven could cope with one five thousand or so years spirit beasts, but if there was another, they might take casualties. Flender, Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji immediately went to meet them, helping them block the attacks of later spirit beasts.

  After this the amount of spirit beasts grew greater and greater, one more powerful than the other. If it went on like this, perhaps even they would be unable to resist.

  Therefore Grandmaster had Tang San quickly take away the target of these spirit beasts.

  With just a glance, Tang San already had a grasp of the battle circumstances, and without the slightest hesitation said to Dai Mubai:

  “Mubai, you bring the Phantom Tiger’s corpse and Zhuqing into the poison formation first, let her absorb the spirit ring. The rest of you follow me.”

  Dai Mubai looked distracted a moment, but only hesitated slightly. He naturally had confidence in Tang San and only smiled wryly inside. Zhu Zhuqing’s character wasn’t too good to begin with, and when further absorbing this tiger type spirit, how couldn’t she become even more like a tigress? However her spirit was also a cat type, and this Phantom Tiger excelled at speed, seemingly it was also suitable.

  Along with Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing first stepping into the poison formation, Tang San took the variety of sausages Oscar handed over. After each of them first at a recovery sausage, they immediately gathered towards Flender’s trio.

  Strength. This was strength!

  Watching Flender’s trio fighting, the Shrek Seven Devils couldn’t keep from inwardly sighing in admiration.

  Flender, Liu Erlong and Zhao Wuji were all three Spirit Sage powers over seventieth rank. Right now the three weren’t coordinating at all, only fighting their own battles, but withstood the attacks of those seven spirit beasts without allowing them to take one step past the line.

  The reason they didn’t cooperate wasn’t because they didn’t want to, but rather because they couldn’t. The might of the trio’s spirit abilities was too great, and if they cooperated with each other they would instead cause disturbances, making them unable to bring out their full strength.

  At such a time, Ning Rongrong showed the effect of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spirit she had inherited.

  When the Phantom Tiger was defeated, she had already stopped assisting Tang San and the others. Right now the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s three rings of light flashed once again, becoming three lines of light that simultaneously poured into Flender’s trio.

  The more powerful the Spirit Master the greater effect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda’s support would have, this was something all the Shrek Seven Devils knew. Because its support increased by a percentage, the higher the base value the more powerful the upgrade effect. But when truly used in combat, that reversing heaven and earth terrifying effect still shocked Tang San and the others.

  The light around Flender’s trio simultaneously rose sharply, and the seven spirit beasts that had previously been constantly attacking them were forced to retreat practically simultaneously.

  Unfortunately, Ning Rongrong’s support could also only continue for a few short breaths. This was still the first time she supported Spirit Masters with so much higher spirit power than her own.

  The feeling was as different as black and white compared to supporting the Shrek Seven Devils, in just a few seconds she could feel her spirit power draining away, her whole body unspeakably unwell.

  “Retreat into the poison formation.”

  Flender shouted. He had no choice but to make this decision, because he saw more than ten spirit beasts more rushing out from the forest, their target on their side.

  The Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure’s fragrance was dense and lasted long without scattering, even though right now it had already been withdrawn by Tang San into the Hundred Treasure Purse, the scent was still there. The later arriving spirit beasts unexpectedly had a lot that were over the ten thousand year level, this wasn’t something Flender and the others could hold back.

  The Shrek Seven Devils and Grandmaster swiftly retreated into the poison formation Dugu Bo had set up. Although Flender’s trio had lost Ning Rongrong’s support, with their strength, even if they couldn’t win, they could still run.

  Perhaps it was because the poison formation had been here for so long, but just as Tang San expected, when the approximately twenty spirit beasts reached its edge they immediately stopped, and could only make some long range attacks.

  Unfortunately their range was limited, and Flender and the others blocked them a few times as the Shrek Academy party already moved within the poison formation where they couldn’t reach.

  “Little San, that Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure of yours really is too effective.”

  Flender looked with some trepidation at the still increasing number of spirit beasts outside. Who said Sunset Forest didn’t have formidable spirit beasts? Among the twenty nine spirit beasts already gathered outside, there were at least six or seven whose strength exceeded ten thousand years, even so much that one spirit beast’s cultivation approached thirty thousand years. The other spirit beasts were also all over three thousand years.

  Even the impulsive Liu Erlong understood that such high level spirit beasts wasn’t something they could match, and could only avoid.

  Grandmaster’s gaze turned to the side where Zhu Zhuqing was already absorbing the spirit ring, and happily said:

  “At least we didn’t waste our strength. That Phantom Tiger is quite good, whether in ability or attributes, they’re both very suitable for Zhuqing.”

  Tang San was now constantly observing the spirit beasts outside. Due to the Aromatic Silk Beauty Immortal Treasure’s scent still not scattering, right now the spirit beasts were still pacing outside the poison formation, while absorbing the scent left in the air they glared like tigers watching prey at their side.

  At least until the fragrance scattered they clearly wouldn’t leave.

  Tang San raised the sleeve on his right arm and swiftly removed the Flying God Claw and handed it to Flender to the side.

  Flender puzzled said:

  “What is it?”

  Tang San said:

  “Dean, there are so many spirit beasts outside, and there are a few that suits us. They don’t dare enter the poison formation, so we need to pull them inside to hunt them. With your, teacher Zhao and teacher Erlong’s strength, pulling them inside shouldn’t be any problem.”

  Flender astonished said:

  “Little San, you’re joking. Can’t you see how many spirit beasts are outside? As soon as we go out, we’ll definitely be mobbed. Even we couldn’t retreat intact. There really are too many spirit beasts outside, the instant burst power they could produce would give a headache even to Title Douluo.”

  Tang San smiled slightly, always planning in advance pointed to the Flying God Claw in his hand, saying:

  “That’s why I’m giving you this. With it you basically don’t need to go outside. Mubai, little Ao, give your Flying God Claws for teacher Zhao and teacher Erlong to use.”

  Listening to Tang San, Flender was immediately greatly curious,

  “Well, so you kids still had another move.”

  Even though he still didn’t understand what Tang San wanted them to do, he could see from Ta
ng San’s expression that he held considerable certainty.

  From the suggestion of setting up by the poison formation, he clearly had already planned ahead, one plan after another, his mind was even more meticulous than the majority of adults.

  Could it be that Clear Sky Douluo’s genes were this good?

  Tang San helped the curious trio set up the Flying God Claws on their right arms, then gave them a detailed explanation in its use.

  With their curiosity greatly increased, the trio immediately tried using it within the poison formation, unable to keep from gasping in admiration over the elaborate Flying God Claw. Especially the quality of the material and craftsmanship made them adore it even more.

  Now Flender didn’t need to worry about dealing with the spirit beasts outside, a cunning light flashed in his eyes, with his particular lisping voice saying to Tang San:

  “I say little San, how about we strike a deal?”

  Tang San was astute, his face immediately showing a smiling expression:

  “No problem, besides this Flying God Claw, anything else is fine.”

  “Eh……”

  Flender immediately choked on his next words.

  To the side Liu Erlong looked disdainfully at Flender,

  “And you call yourself a teacher, you actually want the childrens’ things. Little San, how about this, teacher Erlong will trade with you. Later you pick any spirit beast outside and tell me, I’ll catch it for you, and afterward you make me a Flying God Claw.”

  As a result of Liu Erlong’s figure being different from a man’s and being more observant than Flender, she discovered that each Flying God Claw was different, immediately understanding that this thing was made to size.
