The Hell Flame Beast did not show any sign of weakness. It crouched down and suddenly shot up. A light shadow with the same shape as its body charged upward. It was the Split Body Chop.
“Boom!” A terrifying blast of air blew across the stage. The golden and dark blue radiances were scattered all over the place. Neither of the spirit souls gained the upper hand.
For a while, the two great companion spirit souls fought each other. Countless dazzling radiances burst forth in the air.
‘This is definitely worth the price of a ticket!’ It was what the audience felt.
The term spirit soul was familiar to everyone in the Star Luo Empire. Most of them have seen spirit souls before, but only one percent of them would have seen such powerful spirit souls.
How could these still be spirit souls? They were essentially terrific primordial beasts fighting against each other. The battle scene blew the audience away.
The audience could hardly appreciate the skills being displayed. All they expected to see was a heated battle between two very strong opponents. To be able to witness such a magnificent display of skills at the moment was more than enough.
The Golden Dragon and the Blue Beast. They were in the air fighting their hearts out. Nonetheless, they were evenly matched.
Tang Wulin looked at Zhang Geyang who was standing quite far away. Zhang Geyang was staring back at him. They locked eyes. Zhang Geyang’s pupils contracted slightly. He saw a purplish light flickering in Tang Wulin’s eyes.
‘This is bad. Is he trying to use the Tang Sect’s Technique, Purple Demon Eyes to influence me?’
They were only allowed to battle with their spirit souls according to the rules. In the event it was an attack on the spiritual plane, the attacker would not be disqualified if he was not found out.
In the brief moment Zhang Geyang was distracted, a beam of golden light burst forth from Tang Wulin’s body. A golden ring suddenly appeared to cover the entire stage. A sonorous dragon’s roar could be heard at the same time.
It was precisely the Golden Dragon Rage Domain!
When the golden ring appeared, the Goldsong sensed it. A golden light ring also appeared from its body. It instantly merged with Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon Rage Domain.
The Goldsong’s fifteen-meter body experienced rapid changes. Seemingly in the blink of an eye, it had elongated to a length of thirty meters with its eyes turning red.
“Boom!” The Goldsong struck out with its foreclaws and the Hell Flame Beast was instantly sent flying. At the same time, the Goldsong made a horizontal sweep with its tail, the Golden Dragon Wags Tail. Its tail whipped the Hell Flame Beast’s body mercilessly, tossing it to the side.
‘He’s sly!’ Zhang Geyang was infuriated. Without a doubt, Tang Wulin had launched the attack when Zhang Geyang was preparing himself for the Purple Demon Eyes which never came. Because of the distraction, he slowed down for just a second.
A blinding dark blue flame suddenly arose from Zhang Geyang’s body. The Hell Flame Beast instantly turned into a flaming inferno. The Goldsong’s attack cut right through the flames. It basically missed. At the same time, it was engulfed by the dark blue flames.
Within the Golden Dragon Rage Domain, the Goldsong felt no pain. It released a skyward roar. “Roar!”
It was the Golden Dragon Roar.
The Hell Flame Beast was affected by the thunderous bellow. Its body turned illusory as it quickly retreated.
Undoubtedly, the Goldsong had gained the upper hand.
At the moment, a loud explosion was heard. In an instant, lightning pervaded the surroundings. Arcs of electricity descended from the skies to cover the Goldsong’s body. Scores of vines sprouted from the ground. Unlike the Bluesilver Emperor vines, these dark purple vines were segmented like bamboos. The entire ground appeared as an electrified ocean. With the lightning in the skies, the Goldsong seemed to be imprisoned in a lightning cage.
When Tang Wulin saw the vines appearing out of the blue, he felt a chill down his spine. He realized it was his opponent’s second spirit soul.

The Hell Flame Beast moved quickly and plunged into the Hell Flame Douluo Zhang Geyang’s body while the Goldsong was threatened by the lightning. In a single breath, it charged out again. On the other side, the lightning had released a series of intense explosions.
Arcs of lightning lashed against the Goldsong’s body. The Goldsong could not evade the attacks. It defended itself by using the Golden Dragon Body and the Golden Dragon Domineering Body. It was difficult to move even a single step amidst the lightning.
Zhang Geyang was a rank-98 Title Douluo, after all. The sheer power of his spirit soul and his overall cultivation base was far superior to Tang Wulin’s.
The Thunderclap Nether Vine. For most soul masters, the existence of this soul beast was not even known, let alone its utilization as a spirit soul.
It was a creature born with wisdom and known as the strongest plant-type soul beast. At birth, it was like a bamboo shoot with a single segment. Its habitat abounded with frequent lightning strikes. It could only grow under rain with lightning all around. Its body grew stronger with every lightning strike. A hundred lightning strikes were equivalent to a year’s cultivation for ordinary soul beasts.
Thunderclaps were nature’s violent forces. The Thunderclap Nether Vine grew under the trials and tribulations of thunderclaps. In the beginning, its growth was slow and difficult for it had to wait for a lightning hit in order to grow.
While the ordinary soul beasts cultivated throughout the year, it had to wait ten years instead to accumulate a hundred lightning strikes. Hence, its cultivation pace was ten times slower than the ordinary soul beast’s.
With the passage of time, its situation changed drastically once the Thunderclap Nether Vine cultivated for a hundred years.
A Thunderclap Nether Vine with a hundred-year cultivation base could attract the lightning strikes in a storm so as to accumulate a hundred lightning strikes overnight. Perhaps, it would need more than a hundred lightning strikes for a year’s worth of cultivation base. However, its cultivation speed would increase by then.
Due to its special characteristics, once the Thunderclap Nether Vine attained a certain level of cultivation, its destructive power was extremely terrifying. It created a huge lightning pool whereby it expanded and strengthened itself until it devoured everything around it.
A Thunderclap Nether Vine with ten thousand years of cultivation base could even alter the weather. It could summon lightning to strike the human realms and destroy everything in the world.
If such a Thunderclap Nether Vine existed, it would definitely be disastrous to the world. Only an extremely talented expert could stop it.
However, the Thunderclap Nether Vine also had its shortcomings. Since it had to continuously improve itself, it would keep on absorbing the lightning strikes. Up to a certain point, the lightning absorbed would become destructive. Then, it could possibly self-destruct at any moment.
Most Thunderclap Nether Vines appeared deep in the mountains or the woods. They grew in places where no man had gone before. They would eventually be destroyed by their own growth.
The Thunderclap Nether Vines had different growing experiences. Usually, they would self-destruct between twenty thousand to fifty thousand years. It was rare for a Thunderclap Nether Vine’s cultivation base to exceed fifty thousand years. There had never been a hundred-thousand year cultivation base Thunderclap Nether Vine recorded in history.
For the lightning-attribute soul masters, the Thunderclap Nether Vine was the most sought after. It possessed three great soul skills, namely, the Lightning Forest, the Lightning Hell, and the Thunderclap Electrifying Dance.
For most vine-like soul beasts, skills like the Bind were normal. Tang Wulin’s Bluesilver Emperor, for example, had such a skill. However, the Thunderclap Nether Vine had no such skill. Its function was to be always on the attack. Hence, it was regarded as the most powerful predator among the plant-type soul beasts.
Having spent his days studying at Shrek Academy, Tang Wulin could tell its origin with just one look. He could not help but took a deep breath.
The Thunderclap Nether Vine was a lost spirit soul for many years. Throughout Shrek’s twenty thousand years of existence, there were only three soul masters who possessed a soul ring from this soul beast.
He did not expect the Spirit Pagoda’s person-in-charge in the Star Luo Empire to own such a spirit soul. No wonder he was so self-assured and emboldened.
There was no questioning the power of the Thunderclap Nether Vine. Even the Goldsong found it difficult to move with its strengthened body enhanced by the Golden Dragon Rage Domain. It had not even unleashed its more powerful Lightning Hell and the Thunderclap Electrifying Dance.
It was truly a terrifying being whose prowess was highly destructive.
“My lord, allow me.” At the moment, a relaxed voice suddenly sounded in the depths of Tang Wulin’s mind.
“Damask, you’re not skilled in attacks. Can you handle it?” Tang Wulin asked puzzled.
“My lord, don’t forget who you are. Your opponent is conceited. A Thunderclap Nether Vine? Hehe. My lord, it’s a coincidence that you’re in need of a ninth soul ring. I think it’ll do very well.”
Tang Wulin did not have time to ask further questions when a pink radiance was released from his body. A huge pink flower flew out. It immediately unleashed a faint mist around itself. It was the Damask Tulip which was immune to poison.
