With a sway of its body, the Damask Tulip appeared. It had already taken its human form as it turned around and gave a slight nod to Tang Wulin.
The Damask Tulip was different from Goldsong. He had been a beast with exceedingly high intelligence. The level of mutual empathy between Tang Wulin and the Damask Tulip far exceeded what he had with Goldsong. Goldsong followed Tang Wulin’s orders without question, but the Damask Tulip had a mind of his own, which allowed him to assist Tang Wulin in this case.
With a push from the Damask Tulip, the fifth green-gold soul ring on Tang Wulin’s body suddenly glowed brightly.
The green-gold light spread outward and transformed into a gigantic halo. Its appearance startled everyone in the crowd with the speed of its growth. It vanished without a trace after only a few moments as if it had seeped into the coliseum.
The Damask Tulip, Goldsong, the Thunderclap Nether Vine and the rank-98 Hyper Douluo Zhang Geyang had all been enshrouded within the green-gold halo as it spread outward.
Zhang Geyang frowned. He had been paying close attention to Tang Wulin’s moves the whole time. Zhang Geyang took the initiative to unleash his second spirit soul, which signified that he was already in an unfavorable situation during the engagement of his first spirit soul. However, he had absolute confidence in his second spirit soul.
In reality, the Thunderclap Nether Vine was not his most powerful spirit soul because he had yet to figure out how to cultivate to a cultivation base of one hundred thousand years. However, the spirit soul was definitely the most powerful among its peers.
It had such terrifying lightning power that the Spirit Pagoda previously sent out eleven powerhouses, each having at least a Title Douluo cultivation base, to retrieve this spirit soul. It was finally found in one of the mountain valleys located in the Star Luo Empire. When it was captured, the Thunderclap Nether Vine was already near to the point of breaking down with its cultivation base of over forty thousand years.
In order to make it into a spirit soul, Zhang Geyang spared no effort to tame it before finally succeeding and solidifying its cultivation base. In order for it to survive, Zhang Geyang stopped it from absorbing lightning and elevating itself. In return, the Thunderclap Nether Vine had to obey his commands.
In turn, the Thunderclap Nether Vine had a tremendous effect on Zhang Geyang’s growth. After acquiring his second spirit soul, Zhang Geyang soon became prominent among the many brilliant minds of the Spirit Pagoda and advanced step by step to become the man he was. It could be said that this powerful spirit soul was what he counted on the most.
His only regret was that he had never managed to enable its elevation. Even the Spirit Pagoda’s spirit ascension platform was incapable of doing so. It could possibly make him lose control of the spirit soul, and there would also be the danger of a spontaneous explosion at any time.
If not for that, the Thunderclap Nether Vine would have certainly become Zhang Geyang’s most powerful spirit soul.
The truth was that the Thunderclap Nether Vine was not compatible with his Hell Flame Beast martial soul. This was only because it was so formidable explosive power that Zhang Geyang forcefully fused with it. His clan was highly experienced in paying a great price in order to compete for the ownership of this spirit soul! In addition, there was no other suitable candidate from the first great clan of the Spirit Pagoda, the Qiangu Clan. He made the most of this situation in the end.
“Lightning Hell, strangle!” Zhang Geyang called out quietly to himself and despatched the order to the Thunderclap Nether Vine.
Zhang Geyang used the Lightning Forest to control the battle and saved his original spirit soul. Next, he was about to launch a continuous bombardment from his weapon of mass destruction. He refused to believe that a Soul Douluo-rank soul master like Tang Wulin was capable of resisting the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s power.
At his command, the Thunderclap Nether Vine immediate transformed. Its originally dark purple color swiftly turned into purple-gold. The roaring thunder above them paused for a moment before the entire sky seemed to dim. Within the dark purple sky, balls of thunder condensed rapidly while more thunderballs arose from on the ground one after the other. There was the feeling of a dreadful, apocalyptic aura.
The audience stared in bewilderment. Was this the strength of this elite veteran’s spirit soul? Was its power so awesome even without the soul master’s participation?
Upon witnessing the scene, Tang Wulin had a change of countenance too. His spiritual power had reached the Spirit Domain realm which allowed him to clearly sense the fearsome magnitude of the thunder element in the air. Every single one of those thunderballs felt like a volcano that could erupt at any moment. If all the thunderballs were to explode, Tang Wulin was afraid that the coliseum’s protective shield may not be able to withstand the terrifying destructive power.
On the platform, Monster Academy President En Ci had already disappeared. In order to ensure the safety of the location in the face of such a daunting battle, the Limit Douluo was personally attending to the task.

A ferocious look flashed past Zhang Geyang’s eyes. ‘Die, boy from the Tang Sect.’ He did not have any intention of showing mercy. He was planning to kill Tang Wulin’s spirit soul, and then he would guide the Lightning Hell toward Tang Wulin so he could blast him into pulp.
The Tang Sect had already declared war on the Spirit Pagoda officially anyhow. Moreover, the Tang Sect destroyed their headquarters in the Dou Spirit Empire. Their actions would be answered for. He was engaged in a competition, so it would not be unusual for him to accidentally go too far. He had a way to explain himself and he did not care about the Tang Sect’s response anymore. Killing the newly appointed Sect Master would definitely be considered a major success.
Meanwhile, the Damask Tulip that had just entered the scene also began to transform at that very moment. A misty puff of pink light spread out from the surface of its body. The mist was extremely peculiar. It floated in midair without being affected by the lightning’s aura and transformed into pink sparkles that dispersed in all directions, spreading to the outside world.
One would discover under close inspection that the small sparkles were transforming into tiny vortexes and absorbing the energy participles in the air. Those energy particles included all sorts of elements and even included the violent lightning element.
The Damask Tulip raised his hand and cast a stream of pink light onto Goldsong as it struggled in the Lightning Forest. At once, Goldsong’s body stabilized slightly. Goldsong’s radiant body became even brighter as it resisted the grip of the Lightning Forest.
Zhang Geyang was filled with disdain. So what if this was a beast? Once his Lightning Hell was triggered, they would all be blasted into pieces when their master could no longer withstand it.
If the Thunderclap Nether Vine fully unleashed its Lightning Hell, even Zhang Geyang himself dared not stay in the blast zone. He had actually experienced the reason that the Thunderclap Nether Vine could not be allowed to continue its evolution anymore.
“Boom!” The first thunderball exploded near Goldsong’s body. The moment it exploded felt like liquid was splashing through the air. Of course, it was not liquid, but lightning energy that had completely liquified. It was electric plasma.
Goldsong gave out a sorrowful howl as its body glowed brightly. It was still feeling numb all over when the electric plasma flowed around its body.
A layer of charred black was gradually added to the surface of the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s purple-gold body. Under Zhang Geyang’s merciless compulsion, the Lightning Hell was elevated to its peak.
One after another, thunderballs exploded. Large patches of electric plasma gathered. It felt as if one had truly entered a hellish world of lightning. At once, a gigantic lightning pool was forming rapidly in the sky and on the ground.
It was truly horrifying.
As they sat on the platform, the six Shrek Monsters turned ghastly pale upon witnessing this. Was this the strength of a spirit soul that belonged to a powerhouse close to Limit Douluo-rank? This was like the power of Heaven and Earth combined!
Hu Jie’s expression was even more unpleasant. As a powerhouse of that rank, he could sense the capabilities of the Thunderclap Nether Vine as well. In truth, he was once confronted by this in the past. Even someone like him could be badly defeated when confronted by the full force of the Thunderclap Nether Vine. Only with great effort could his spirit soul’s own defense withstand it.
Zhang Geyang’s Thunderclap Nether Vine was deadly, but fortunately for its opponents, it could not sustain its outbursts for long and it would need time to recover after launching one round of skills. Without taking time to recuperate, the Thunderclap Nether Vine would not have been able to endure. Even so, its momentary outburst was still overwhelming. It unleashed all its power completely within such a short period of time.
Goldsong had been engulfed by the Lightning Hell in a split second, as did the Damask Tulip. The pink radiance that surrounded the Damask Tulip shrank rapidly in the electric plasma. Soon, the plasma would start to corrode its body.
Meanwhile, the Damask Tulip pointed to the sky with one hand and pointed to the ground with the other. He shouted loud and clear, “Devour Heaven and Earth!”
The pink sparkles abrupt turned intense. Tang Wulin’s body began to float, rising slowly from where he was standing. The green-gold radiance on his body suddenly turned brighter.
The green-gold hue that had been unleashed earlier seemed to be undergoing some transformation. The crowd watched in astonishment as countless minute sparks flew toward the inside of the arena from outside of the Lightning Hell.
These sparks swept past their bodies, so close that they could even stretch out their hands to touch them. The sparks were in an array of different colors. As every single one of these sparks carried a minuscule amount of energy, ordinary people would not be able to feel anything upon touching it.
