Chapter 494 - Golden Dragon Tyrant Body (1/2)
Na'er used her spear to vault into the air in an effort to avoid the phantom dragons. But it was to no avail. The pressure from Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth proved unescapable. A couple times she span in the air, silver hair whipping in the wind, silver light enveloping her body the moment she landed on his head. As Tang Wulin had informed her beforehand, the only safe location when he used Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth was on top of him.
“Did it hurt?” Na'er asked.
Tang Wulin shook his head. The instant the spear had struck him, his scales lit up and he felt as if a burst of blood essence energy had been poured into him. Body urging to let out all that energy, he did so with Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth. During the whole event, he hadn't once felt pain, nor had his scales been damaged.
“That's good then. I think I know what your soul skill does too.” Na'er smiled.
Tang Wulin looked at her curiously. “So what is it?”
“The first half is invincibility for about two seconds.” She wrinkled her nose. “Well, not quite invincibility. I'm sure you've heard of such skills before. Ones where your defense triples for a moment, but it's practically invincibility during that time. The second half of the skill absorbs the opponent's attack energy and converts it into your own, empowering your next attack. When I hit you just now, I felt my soul power and blood essence being sucked into you.”
“Really?” Tang Wulin had already spent a semester at Shrek Academy, but he never heard of a soul skill like this.
A smile continued to dance on Na'er's lips. “This isn't too strange for a soul skill. Besides, this isn't an ordinary soul skil to begin with. Anything is possible. If you use it well, you'll be unstoppable on the battlefield.”
Tang Wulin's heart raced. He mulled over her words, considering the possibilities. A potent counter-attack skill. If he mastered it, it had the potential to be G.o.dly!
“Na'er, try hitting me again. But harder this time. Let's see how strong my defense is,” Tang Wulin said.
Na'er nodded. “Alright. Be careful.”
Tang Wulin grunted his affirmation, then called forth his blood essence. He could easily use his second blood essence soul skill four or five times.
Na'er took in a deep breath, a sharp glint in her eyes. Her aura completely transformed.
Silver light burst from her body, obscuring her figure from Tang Wulin's view. She became one with her spear, a meter long beam of light shooting out the spear's tip.
Tang Wulin braced himself, not daring to underestimate the power within her spear.
A shout brought forth her full might. She pointed her spear to the sky, her aura flaring. A wave of power crashed into Tang Wulin and all of his scales went erect, his soul power rapidly circulating to protect him.
“I'm going!” Na'er declared.
Tang Wulin sucked air into his lungs, his second golden ring lighting up. His scales shone once more, resplendent gold fighting back the wave of silver.
Silver streaked through the air, no more than a blur to the untrained eye. Tang Wulin couldn't follow it at all. Before his mind could catch up, a metallic clink rang out and two dragons roared, one roar reverberating and the other melodic. Which came from his body was anyone's guess.
Energy flooded into him. In order to vent the excess energy, he released a Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens, the phantom dragon head far larger and tangible than previous. It was nearly indistinguishable from a real dragon. The phantom soared into the sky, tearing through the air. Tang Wulin had to do his best to redirect it from attacking Na'er.
The Silver Dragon Spear retreated, then softened and coiled around Na'er. Silver light pulsed around it, fighting back against Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens.
Tang Wulin had never unleashed such a mighty Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens. All of the seeds Zhuo s.h.i.+ had sowed with his teachings bore fruit, their mysteries coming together into one powerful attack. His internal energies were bubbling, both his soul power and blood essence sublimated.
The phantom dragon head persisted for three more seconds before fading. With it followed Tang Wulin's scales and dominating blood essence aura. He couldn't sustain such power for very long with his current blood essence levels. Exhaustion finally caught up to him, weakness was.h.i.+ng over him in a giant wave. But he didn't care about that. He was still overcome with joy. All the lesser techniques of Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens had culminated into a single attack.
