Douluo Dalu: Volume 22: Clear Sky School Page 2

  With the appearance of the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang Hu’s manner immediately changed. Compared to the previous coldness, right now he was like solid granite, towering there without the slightest gap.

  This was still the first time Tang San confronted an opponent with the Clear Sky Hammer. Not daring be the slightest bit careless, he released his own Blue Silver Emperor.

  A strand of sparkling and translucent Blue Silver Emperor appeared out of nothing in Tang San’s right hand like a whip. Under the intense sunshine, the golden line within the Blue Silver Emperor was clearly visible.

  “Wait a moment, his spirit isn’t the Clear Sky Hammer, who let him into the sect? What disciples were on duty yesterday?”

  The seventh elder shouted loudly, once again interrupting Tang San and Tang Hu’s contest.

  Without waiting for the disciples on duty to appear, Tang Yue Hua standing to the side had already indifferently said:

  “Seventh elder, don’t tell me you haven’t heard of the Spirit Master world concept of twin spirits?

  The Clear Sky School’s disciples were still good. As far as they knew, the Clear Sky Hammer was the best spirit in the world, and nothing could compare to it. But the expressions of some of the older third generation disciples as well as the elders changed, even more shocked than when they heard Tang San was fifty ninth ranked at twenty before.

  If cultivation could be said to be raised through hard work and luck, then twin spirits was a gift, a blessed gift.

  The long-eyebrowed elder stared fixedly at Tang Yue-Hua,

  “You’re saying that he’s the same as the present Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong, having twin spirits?”

  Tang Yue-Hua nodded,

  “Tang San inherited his dad’s Clear Sky Hammer and his mom’s Blue Silver Emperor. Little San, let them see your hammer.”

  The sparkling Blue Silver Emperor quietly withdrew, Tang San didn’t even have time to release his spirit rings. Spreading his left hand, the chi long Clear Sky Hammer quietly lay in his hand. Tightening his grip, black light surged around the Clear Sky Hammer.

  Everyone present were the Clear Sky School’s direct relations, and naturally recognized that this was indeed the Clear Sky Hammer.

  “Continue with the contest.”

  The long-eyebrowed elder waved his hand, but his eyes already displayed a somewhat pondering expression.

  The Clear Sky Hammer was again replaced with Blue Silver Emperor. Yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, five spirit rings spiraled up, quietly and rhythmically revolving around Tang San.

  “Take care.”

  As Tang San’s words fell, his fourth spirit ring had already brightened.

  Without any warning, sixteen strands of glittering translucently lustrous Blue Silver Emperor shot up from around Tang Hu, instantly solidifying. Blue Silver Emperor’s fourth spirit ability, Blue Silver Prison.

  Compared to before, not only didn’t Tang San’s Blue Silver Prison have any preparatory time, but each strand of Blue Silver Emperor was also even thicker. The instant the cage formed, countless thorns began to grow from the Blue Silver Emperor, piercing directly towards Tang Hu.

  “Hey——”

  Tang Hu gave a low roar, right hand swinging the Clear Sky Hammer horizontally, already smashing against the Blue Silver Prison.

  With an explosive sound, the thorns thrusting at him from the front were smashed. However, shocking Tang Hu was that the solid Blue Silver Prison didn’t even budge. In fact, his Clear Sky Hammer weighed more than a thousand jin[1], and further adding his spirit power, this attack was well over two thousand jin[2]. He had moreover used his first spirit ability to strengthen the Clear Sky Hammer. However, that Blue Silver Prison was extremely durable, and moreover extremely flexible. Even though the thorns were crushed, he was unable to break out of the cage.

  The Blue Silver Grass’s second awakening to Blue Silver Emperor had evolved it as a whole. The Blue Silver Prison here was the might the Blue Silver Emperor could truly display. As a ten thousand year spirit ring ability, and also the world’s only Blue Silver Emperor, how could it be so easily broken?

  A blue light halo quietly spread from Tang San’s feet, the brilliance very soon encompassing the entire front courtyard.

  Everyone in the Clear Sky School only felt an atmosphere full of vitality, however, what Tang Hu felt was completely different. The Blue Silver Prison in front of him suddenly released a golden splendor, that restrained golden line within the Blue Silver Grass instantly growing larger. His just congregated third spirit ability attack unexpectedly rebounded once again.

  Tang San had now already raised both his hands, aiming towards Tang Hu. Just restraining the opponent clearly wasn’t enough to gain victory. Tang Hu’s strength was formidable, and he couldn’t be injured just by the thorns growing from the Blue Silver Grass. Not even with the boost of the Blue Silver Domain.

  Starting at his right shoulder, strand after strand of Blue Silver Grass coiled around Tang San’s arm. Each strand of Blue Silver Emperor was only thumb sized, swiftly wrapping coils, they had already completely covered Tang San’s arm in just the blink of an eye. And the fifth spirit ring over Tang San, the fifth spirit ring condensed by the Blue Silver King, flickered with black light.

  Part 3 (TL by Bagelson)

  The never used fifth spirit ability, would finally appear.

  Along with the glittering of that black spirit ring, the Blue Silver Domain Tang San released also abruptly grew stronger, rings of blue light surging all over him, and that Blue Silver Emperor wrapped arm of his also instantly turned golden.

  The long-eyebrowed second elder couldn’t keep back a low shout,

  “Innate domain, a spirit variation.”

  Now, his face finally grew serious, his gaze as he looked again at Tang San already somewhat different.

  Was it truly spirit variation? No, that was however a kind of special way for the Blue Silver Emperor to manifest.

  To be precise, this was also the true Blue Silver Emperor.

  Tang San’s fifth spirit ability was completely condensed from countless blue silver grass. That time was also when he aroused the true potential of the Blue Silver Emperor. As a result, this fifth spirit ability undoubtedly ideally suited his Blue Silver Domain.

  When both fused together, they would have extremely terrifying power, in no way as simple as common ten thousand year spirit abilities. This showed in how Tang San now warmed up the spirit ability in advance.

  Besides this fifth spirit ability, his other spirit abilities could basically all be used instantly.

  Blue Silver Emperor was coiled in a spiral around his entirely golden arm. The golden light spread, and Tang San’s expression became extremely serious. Outsiders didn’t sense the feeling this golden Blue Silver Emperor brought, but as the person involved, Tang Hu clearly sensed this terrifying threat.

  Trapped within the Blue Silver Prison, Tang Hu discovered that the pressure emanating from Tang San across from him actually left him unable to breath. As if even his chest had already begun to collapse under the pressure. Especially the spear sharp energy at the tip of that golden light felt even more as if it could pierce everything.

  Even the Clear Sky Hammer was unable to completely block the threat that golden light gave him.

  He understood that if this spirit ability was unleashed, it would inevitably be earth shattering and heaven shaking. Even though he didn’t know that Tang San’s spirit was Blue Silver Emperor, right now he could still judge that this was a super spirit not second to the Clear Sky Hammer.

  Tang Hu was after all an outstanding talent among the Clear Sky School’s third generation disciples. Right now he knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape danger without his full strength. His fifth spirit ring finally brightened.

  The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand abruptly emanated black splendor. Line after line of deep purple patterns spread across the hammer, the incomparably tyrannical aura rendering even his eyes purple.<
br />
  Even with the same Clear Sky Hammer, killing different spirit beasts for spirit rings would produce spirits with different abilities. Right now, the pattern on Tang Hu’s Clear Sky Hammer brought a slight quiver. Only by seeing him twist his waist and straighten his back, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand seemed alive. Lightly rotating in the small area, abruptly, a layer of heavy black light spread with him at its center.

  This moment, Tang Hu seemed to become one with the Clear Sky Hammer, with nothing to separate them.

  With the boost of the Blue Silver Domain, not only was each strand of the Blue Silver Prison golden, but they were also knotted and intertwined, extremely thick and solid, accomplished by the Blue Silver Emperor’s innate domain.

  The Blue Silver Domain’s effect brought out the best in the Blue Silver Emperor. This was the greatest advantage of this unique spirit.

  If only considering the Blue Silver Emperor, perhaps its quality would still fall short of the Clear Sky Hammer. But the Blue Silver Emperor with the Blue Silver Domain, in some specific conditions, could be even more powerful than the Clear Sky Hammer.

  Hong—— Without any restraint, an explosive sound abruptly rose in the Blue Silver Prison. A tremendous explosive force made golden and black colored light soar towards the sky.

  Tang Hu gave a muffled grunt on his side, and Tang San, condensing spirit power, swayed slightly, his complexion somewhat pale.

  Tasting the tyranny of the Clear Sky Hammer for the first time, Tang San also couldn’t help secretly being overwhelmed with shock. If he hadn’t severed his connection with the Blue Silver Prison just in time, just the burst of spirit power from the collision of the two spirits would have been enough to injure him.

  Tang Hu grunted due to suffering the backlash of the collision, but by now he was already soaring into the air, the fifth spirit ability, Man And Hammer Union, even more rising to its peak at the same time as it split the Blue Silver Prison.

  In midair, he spun like a purple fierce tiger. The Clear Sky Hammer in his hand swinging like lightning. It was the Clear Sky School’s secret skill, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

  The best way to stop the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method was to never let him use it. Both Tang San’s arms were raised simultaneously. His left arm of course had no use in releasing his fifth spirit ability, but was waiting for this moment.

  He originally never trusted the fourth spirit ability Blue Silver Prison to completely trap Tang Hu.

  Even if this fourth spirit ability of his also was a ten thousand year level, Tang Hu was after all a Clear Sky School disciple with formidable strength. He was above him in both spirit power and spirit abilities.

  Blue light shot out of his left hand. After the blue light left his palm, it swiftly turned a sparkling and translucent green, glittering alternately blue and green. It flew straight at Tang Hu using Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, his violent spirit power fluctuations even allowing him to temporarily float in the air.

  In the air, Tang Hu couldn’t help inwardly sneering, secretly thinking, ‘You really haven’t grown up in the sect, don’t even know about the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer method. Using this kind of frontal spirit ability against me at this moment, don’t tell me it can break through the tremendous spirit power released by my Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method? If I can complete more than half my hammer method, it will be the moment of your defeat.’ The opportunities to make this kind of display in front of the elders were rare, right now clearly was a good chance.

  Unfortunately, he had no idea how laboriously Tang San had worked on the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

  As the once most outstanding disciple of the sect, how could Tang Hao not know the importance of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method to the Clear Sky Hammer? Under Tang Hao’s directions, Tang San’s Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method wasn’t any worse than his peer disciples.

  As a control system Spirit Master, his greatest characteristic was control.

  By now, Tang San was no longer simply controlling his own spirit abilities, he even controlled the spirit abilities of his opponents.

  Including Tang Hu using the fifth spirit ability to break open the Blue Silver Prison, as well as the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method he used now, everything advanced practically according to the script Tang San had made.

  A flash of blue light. Fully using the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, Tang Hu suddenly felt his whole body tighten. Immediately afterward, sharp pain spread across his whole body, especially his arms ached as if being torn apart.

  Blue Silver Emperor’s second spirit ability, Parasite, launched.

  Along with the release of the Blue Silver Prison, Tang San’s second spirit ability, Parasite, had already taken effect on Tang Hu’s body. Parasite was in itself only a reinforced version of the first spirit ability, Binding, and Binding’s capability wasn’t any more powerful than first spirit abilities, but its victory lay in its suddenness. Under Tang San’s control, as long as the opponent’s body was seeded with Blue Silver Grass seeds, Parasite could be launched at any time.

  The instantly bound by Blue Silver Grass Tang Hu basically hadn’t expected Tang San to use this kind of ability, and both his arms were still swinging the Clear Sky Hammer in the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

  His body was suddenly bound, but dictated by inertia, he still moved forcefully. The slender but incomparably tenacious Blue Silver Grass immediately cut into his skin. This was the source of the pain.

  Tang Hu reacted very quickly, swiftly spinning in the air, the stored power of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method turning into torque for his body. Otherwise, the Blue Silver Emperor binding his body would perhaps be shattered, but his body would also be shredded by the released force.

  The feeling of misusing force made Tang Hu unable to keep from spouting out a mouthful of blood, with great difficulty dissolving the previously accumulated force of his Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

  But both his arms were already dripping with blood, several dozen wounds cut open by the Blue Silver Emperor.

  Even though the Blue Silver Emperor’s exposed thorns couldn’t pierce the toughness of his skin so easily, the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method’s force really was too great. Even though the violent chafing left the Blue Silver Emperor Binding on the verge of collapse, it also pierced his skin.

  Neurological toxin invaded, making Tang Hu unable to keep his entire body from spasming.

  Parasite was an unremarkable spirit ability, but this spirit ability was still the nemesis of the Clear Sky School’s created secret skill, Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

  Hong——

  The Blue Silver Emperor shattered once again. Tang Hu’s fifth spirit ability, Man And Hammer Union, had already disappeared due to the interruption, but by now he was also moved to true anger.

  He originally hadn’t wanted to use his sixth spirit ability, after all, Tang San only had five spirit rings, so if he used the sixth spirit ability to win, how could he leave a deep impression on the elders?

  But constantly thwarted, always suppressed by Tang San, Tang Hu was finally unable to hold back.

  The black sixth spirit ring radiated splendor, the lines of light on the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand appearing again, only this time the pattern had already become piercingly silvery, with a lingering silver light.

  But before the sixth spirit ability of the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand had time to emerge, that unremarkable flying blue and green colored ball of light from before was already in front of him.

  It made no sound, but still spread like a flash of lightning.

  A more than ten meter in diameter enormous blue green spider web, covered in sticky liquid and with sparkling translucent blue, abruptly gathered together.

  This was the moment when Tang Hu had just thrown off the Blue Silver Emperor Parasite, his body falling, the gap while he prepared to set the sixth spirit ability
in motion.

  Just as Tang Hu planned, if his Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method had continued, relying on the formidable spirit power of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, this Spiderweb Restraint practically couldn’t even have gotten close to him.

  However, Tang San’s timing was just perfect, creating an opportunity for himself, simply letting his third spirit ability accurately take effect on Tang Hu.

  [1] 1000斤 = 500 kg

  [2] 2000斤 = 1000 kg

  Chapter 149: Fifth Spirit Ability, Blue Silver Overlord Spear

  Part 1 (TL by Bagelson)

  His body freezing in midair, the more than double strength Blue Silver Emperor Spiderweb Restraint tied Tang Hu up like a dumpling, simultaneously forcefully breaking up the sixth spirit ability he was preparing. The toxins on the spiderweb were already instantly invading Tang Hu through his wounds.

  This time it wasn’t only neurotoxin, but at the same time even more powerful stimulants. The pain instantly paralysed Tang Hu’s brain for a short moment. Even more terrifying, cold and hot poisons simultaneously invaded his body, starting to swiftly break down his energy channels.

  Being tied up by Spiderweb Restraint while wounded was undoubtedly Tang Hu’s greatest sorrow. He thought to use force, but discovered the amount of strength he could gather was constantly weakening, and the Blue Silver Emperor spiderweb twisted around him grew tighter and tighter.

  With a thump, Tang Hu fell to the ground. Even though he could still barely manage to make himself stand, his ability to resist was already becoming weaker and weaker along with the poison spreading.

  Tang San’s right hand flickering with golden light was aimed at Tang Hu, moving along with him changing position. Right now, the golden light on his arm had already extended to three meters, just like a brilliant lance of golden light. Without a doubt, this fifth spirit ability of his could completely impact Tang Hu.

  “Don’t hurt my dad!”
