Chapter 1510: The Insight

“Our competition is about to begin now. Counting down from five!”
An enormous protective shield arose and isolated everything from the external world including sound.
The area became quiet. Tang Wulin’s eyes already landed upon Li Weisi standing on the opposite side.
“Your Excellency Yu Longyue, even though I don’t know what happened to you, but I’m sorry that I will be sparing no effort in our fight today. I won’t show mercy just because of your injuries. This is the respect I have for a Title Douluo.” Li Weisi bowed in salute ever so slightly while he was speaking.
This also spoke to his intelligence. They were in a competition, not a killing field. He could not kill Tang Wulin anyhow. If he offended Tang Wulin, the young master from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon King Clan might eventually come seeking revenge. That was not something Li Weisi would ever be able to handle. Thus, he chose to say these words first before anything else.
Tang Wulin nodded toward Li Weisi, but he did not say anything further.
“Five, four, three, two, one, begin!”
The first match of the round-robin for group number three had finally begun.
Tang Wulin’s expression had turned serious in a split second. Li Weisi raised his hand on the opposite side and conjured an exquisite crystal ball in his grasp.
The ball appeared to be crystal-clear all over. Three colored lights flickered softly on its surface in red, blue and green.
The three lights transformed into colored streams that interlaced and pulsed on the surface of the crystal ball. It was pulsing with the rhythm of life. A total of eight soul rings appeared on Li Weisi’s body, including two yellow, three purple and three black soul rings.
His first soul ring shimmered brightly, and the three-colored radiance spurted out from the crystal ball. The light transformed into thick white mist in a split second before surging out into the surroundings. It made the area around Li Weisi take on a dream-like state.
Meanwhile, Li Weisi’s body was already completely enshrouded by the mist. The audience could not see the other soul skills that he was launching anymore.
The white mist surged tempestuously and underwent a rapid transformation. The cloudy mist gathered into the form of a giant tiger that pounced toward Tang Wulin.
Ai Fei was fully committed to his commentating. “Alright, we can see that Contestant Li Weisi unleashed his martial soul and first soul skill as soon as he began to make a move. His first soul skill should be a range-type skill. It is not equipped with any offensive power of its own, but it’s used to confuse the opponent and protect the user. Going by what we’ve learned of Contestant Li Weisi, his first soul skill also shields against spiritual power. It is capable of preventing the opponent from detecting him. He is playing it safe by making a strong foundation, which is a rather impressive tactic.
“Next, we are going to take a look at whether Contestant Li Weisi, who is skilled in control, is capable of luring Contestant Yu Longyue into following his rhythm. I think that the possibility would have been quite low if these were ordinary circumstances. However, it seems like Contestant Yu Longyue is not in good condition today. Perhaps Contestant Li Weisi still stands a chance.
“Huh? That’s not good. The mist is so thick that I can’t see the situation on the inside anymore. This is disrupting our commentary. I can see that the mist is about to spread to Contestant Yu Longyue’s side soon. Everyone, look. The mist has taken the form of a tiger pouncing toward Contestant Yu Longyue. We shall see how Contestant Yu Longyue is going to respond to that now.
“What…Has Contestant Yu Longyue been devoured by the giant tiger formed out of the mist? Over two-thirds of the competition stage has been covered by the thick mist. I can’t see the what’s going on inside for now.”
The commentator had no choice but to stop at this point. Ai Fei was feeling very gloomy too because there was no way he could commentate on the situation! He was hoping that Tang Wulin could at least make a big display to disperse the mist so he could continue commentating.
Tang Wulin observed the opponent quietly when he unleashed the mist. The mist appeared to be simple, but it was a hundred-year soul skill. Just as Ai Fei mentioned, the mist was very effective in shielding against spiritual power. What a waste that Li Weisi was fighting against a powerhouse whose spiritual power had already reached the Spirit Domain realm.
Even though Tang Wulin’s spiritual power had been drained so severely that he was not at his best for the moment, this first soul skill’s mist was not enough to hinder his senses.
The mist tiger was nothing but a probe. Thus, Tang Wulin did not attempt to dodge or hide. Instead, he allowed the opponent’s mist to enshroud him while the soul rings on his body rose one by one. Due to his intentional concealment, his soul rings appeared to mainly be purple and black in color.
The mist surrounding them surged tempestuously. Tang Wulin decided to close his eyes because even if he were to use Purple Demon Eyes in this mist, he would be disrupted anyway. Moreover, there was utterly no need for him to use his sight to observe anything.
“Roar!” There was the sound of a mighty roar. It felt as if the sound originated from the call of countless soul beasts. It made one feel like one was surrounded by a beast tide.
Sound waves rolled along in succession while the surrounding mist was growing thicker and thicker.
Tang Wulin remained standing there without moving. The sound waves lashed onto his ears while the mist disrupted his spiritual detection.
Tang Wulin found that he was actually enjoying the feeling of pressure because the more he immersed himself in it, the more he could sense his instinctive reactions.
The contest with Yuanen Zhentian the day before greatly benefited Tang Wulin, especially after sensing how the older man utilized law using his strength. Tang Wulin’s comprehension of heaven and earth law was elevated to a whole new level.
Even though the lightning from the elemental calamity contained law power, that law, which originated from the cosmos, was still too far away and too deep to be fathomable by Tang Wulin at the moment.
On the other hand, the planar law was highly suitable for him. This was because he was the Nature Child blessed by the planar law. He could fully utilize the law through the comprehensive understanding of his own abilities. This felt like a more effective way for him.
At his rank, all the methods of achieving mastery through comprehensive understanding were meant to fuse together the strongest characteristic of each of his abilities and create a more powerful attack. Every attacking method would allow his sublimation under the overlapping effect.
Upon his return the night before, he did not even bother to sleep. Instead, he meditated to recuperate while thinking about the issue.
He had already possessed more than ten of the Bluesilver Emperor’s soul skills due to the presence of his one-hundred-thousand-year spirit soul. In reality, given that his cultivation base was elevated to a certain extent, these soul skills were already not that effective when used in actual battles, especially when he was leaning more toward pure assault-type attacks.
Judging on controlling ability, Tang Wulin’s Bluesilver Emperor martial soul alone could not compare to Xu Xiaoyan’s Star Staff. Judging by offensive power, the Bluesilver Emperor was not weak, but that was only when it was used to attack ordinary soul masters. On the other hand, Tang Wulin was looking up to and planning to become a powerhouse of the Atlas Douluo, the Underworld King Douluo, the Boundless Sea Douluo, the Light Dark Douluo and the Amorous Douluo’s rank.
As a result, the Bluesilver Emperor’s power was already insufficient.
Earlier, he created his original Blood Soul Fusion Skill by combining the Bluesilver Emperor and the Golden Dragon King’s abilities. At his rank at the time, he had managed to produce a rather impressive effect.
Nevertheless, his Blood Soul Fusion Skill was insufficient when used to fight against a Hyper Douluo-ranked powerhouse or greater.
He imagined having to face enemies that were all of Limit Douluo rank, such as Yuanen Zhentian from the day before. Tang Wulin was well aware that it appeared as if he had managed to withstand three of Yuanen Zhentian’s attacks during their bout, but in reality, Yuanen Zhentian had actually held back. Tang Wulin understood that he was still incapable of resisting a direct strike at full-power from the Limit Douluo.
When Tang Wulin was sparring against the Holy Dragon Douluo En Ci before, En Ci had shown mercy due to Tang Wulin’s identity as the Tang Sect’s Sect Master. Otherwise, it would not have been that easy for Tang Wulin to resist him.
It was precisely due to these reasons that Tang Wulin needed to complete and tidy up his abilities even more. He already possessed Spirit Domain spiritual power and his cultivation base had reached Title Douluo rank. As such, he would need to possess abilities befitting such a rank.
As for the title that he was considering before, Tang Wulin was still feeling rather dissatisfied. Indeed, he was actually under the impression that he would only truly qualify to have his own title after becoming a Limit Douluo. This was because his abilities would only truly be fixed and finalized after reaching that rank.
As a result, he had to work harder to elevate himself.
Law, the Bluesilver Emperor, the Golden Dragon King, Spirit Souls, and Divine Weapons!
These were the numerous abilities that he normally had at his disposal.
If he was capable of fusing all these into one, could he create a soul skill that was truly and sufficiently powerful?
Tang Wulin had been thinking about this throughout the entire night before. That one night’s time was not wasted. Due to the stimulation of his injuries and the effect of the remnant stress left behind by Yuanen Zhentian, he had finally gained some insight.
Softly glowing golden mist arose from Tang Wulin’s body to shield him from the thick mist of the outside world. There was a deep but soft dragon’s roar. Every roar sounded like distant thunder.
