Chapter 1471: Should All Soul Beasts Be Killed?

After scaring the Dark Night Fire Monkeys away, Tang Wulin displayed a faint smile. This was more like the Great Star Dou Forest! There were soul beasts everywhere. The Great Star Dou Forest was filled with life.

If the place had been reconstructed faithfully following the actual Great Star Dou Forest, he should be in the outer regions based on his current situation. The Green Jade Bird was a thousand-year soul beast and the pack of Dark Night Fire Monkeys just now should have been hundred-year soul beasts. Maybe there were thousand-year beasts among them as well. However, they were not much of a threat to him.

He decided to treat this as a holiday trip.

Tang Wulin did not intentionally fix a direction. He continued on along an arbitrary bearing. At the moment, he heard a roar. It did not come from a soul beast. It was a human’s roar.

“Boom!” Somewhere a hundred meters to his side, a large tree fell abruptly with a loud noise. A big and tall figure leaped into the skies. The figure was covered in dazzling scarlet flames and brandished a great axe as it descended from the skies.

Just as the great tree fell, a brown giant ape reeled and crashed onto the ground. The flaming battle axe was aimed at it.

It seemed the giant ape would not be able to escape the attack and would lose its life to the battle axe.

Tang Wulin frowned. In a swift movement, he appeared before the giant ape. He could cross the distance of a hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

“Clang!”

The flaming battle axe fell, but it struck on a large hand which flickered with electric light.

Even with the axe’s momentum, the soul master’s strength, and the scorching flames, it was stopped by the large scaly hand which flickered with a bluish-purple radiance. The axe could not even move an inch further!

At the moment, Tang Wulin could clearly see the person’s appearance. Eight soul rings shone on his body: two yellows, three purples, and three blacks. It was an amazing soul ring combination. He appeared to be in his forties. His arms were exposed, and his granite-like muscles were in full display. His eyes gleamed with a fierce look.

When his axe was blocked by Tang Wulin, he could not help but be shocked. In no time, shock turned into anger. “Step aside! Are you out of your mind?”

Tang Wulin replied, “It has lost its ability to fight back. Why must you kill it?”

The burly man said angrily, “Bullsh*t, that’s a soul beast. It sneaked up on me just now. I’ve to kill it, of course. Is something wrong with your brain? Aren’t the soul beasts in this Ten Thousand Beast Platform set up for us to kill? They’re only energy bodies.”

Tang Wulin replied coldly, “These soul beasts are long extinct in the real world. This is only a simulation. We’ve actually driven them into extinction. You know they’re only energy bodies. So, why must you insist on killing them? Is there a need for that?”

“Why’re you spouting this much bullsh*t? Scram!” As he said this, the burly man pulled on his martial soul Flame Battle Axe strongly. He attempted to wrestle it back from Tang Wulin.

However, his battle axe seemed to have been cast in bronze and iron. It stayed put in Tang Wulin’s hand.

This…

The burly man’s expression changed slightly. He took a deep breath and his sixth soul ring shone brightly. Tongues of flame rose from the ground around him like giant dragons which surged wildly into his battle axe. His battle axe instantly turned an incandescent white. The surrounding air around them was distorted due to the high temperature.

As he faced the man with a wild temperament, Tang Wulin’s eyes gleamed coldly. He mumbled, “Just as well. I wanted to see how this Ten Thousand Beast Platform protects soul masters.”

As he said this, his body shone brightly with a bluish-purple radiance. A sonorous dragon’s roar was heard. His hand which held the battle axe suddenly turned scaly and sharp claws appeared. A layer of golden-blue radiance which seemed to have substance gushed forth.

“Humph!” With a snort, a golden-blue radiance burst out.

“Boom!”

The burly man felt an unparalleled terrifying energy pouring out from the person in front of him. In that instant, he felt as if his own thoughts were frozen over. There seemed to be a steel wall falling toward him, crushing him under its weight. His Flame Battle Axe shattered instantly. The terrifying power was devastating.

The Dragon Air, the Thunderclap Nether Vine, and spiritual power. It was a three-in-one.

The Dragon Thunder Blast! It was Tang Wulin’s original attack which was inspired by the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan’s combat style. When he became a Title Douluo, he could accomplish numerous skills which he was not able to before.

“Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!” The burly man felt the thunderclaps erupting within himself. He felt as if his soul was about to be blasted to pieces. He protected his body with his eight-ring soul power. With just three strikes, the soul power which he used to protect his body was dispersed. He was completely overwhelmed.

Even more terrifying was the numbness he felt which caused him not to feel any pain. Nonetheless, he could clearly feel the terrifying lightning entering his body. Also, Tang Wulin’s hand which held onto his battle axe had a powerful suction force. He could not run away even if he wanted to. He could only look on as his body was slowly devoured by the lightning.

At this very moment, the entire space shook violently. A beam of faint greenish light sparkled as it descended from the skies. It shone on the burly man and kept the lightning away from him. In the next instant, the burly man was like the wild goose which flew away to an unseen world. He vanished without a trace.

Tang Wulin had a slight frown. The electric glow on his body gradually dimmed. Silently, he felt the fluctuations of the beam of light. It was special and seemed to be the power of some laws of nature at work. It had repelled his attack on that burly man and forcibly transported him away.

‘Can wounds be healed this way? I think not.’

After all, this was different from the spirit ascension platform. He also had a sudden realization. If his attack had been stronger whereby he had killed his opponent instantly, this space’s natural power would not have been able to protect his opponent.

As expected, there would be no killing of persons here. It was certainly a small planar space and not some virtual reality.

The Dragon Thunder Blast’s effects were great. However, his opponent did not know that for Tang Wulin to unleash his Dragon Thunder Blast’s maximum power, he had to be in contact with his target. If his target kept a certain distance from him, the might of the Dragon Thunder Blast would be much weaker.

When Tang Wulin turned around to look at where the ape soul beast was, the injured soul beast had already fled, like a wild goose, to unseen worlds.

Well, it was a soul beast. It was only natural for it to run away when it had the chance.

…

There was a flash of light and the burly man reappeared at the exit of the eighth stage. Currently, he had a burnt smell. Puffs of smoke could even be seen when he breathed. His entire body was paralyzed. He lay limp on the floor, unable to move a single muscle.

The staff members and the Recovery System soul masters rushed forward and gave him emergency treatment. They managed to keep his condition under control.

Actually, Tang Wulin had held back his power. He did not unleash his Dragon Thunder Blast at full strength. Otherwise, the burly man would have lost his life since he was caught off guard.

When he finally caught his breath, the burly man was filled with fear. ‘Who was that young man who seemed to be in his twenties? He must’ve at least the strength of a Limit Douluo! Although I’m a novice to the realm of eight rings, I’m a true Soul Douluo expert! To think that I can’t even stand my own ground in a single round. It’s unbelievable. This is scary, way too scary.’

He would never have known that he had faced the current Tang Sect’s Sect Master. What he endured was the combination of Tang Wulin’s Dragon Air and the hundred-thousand year Thunderclap Nether Vine’s terrifying lightning power.

Even Tang Wulin himself nearly suffered a great loss when he faced the Thunderclap Nether Vine. The Thunderclap Nether Vine had evolved several times since. At present, Tang Wulin had to be extra careful while using its strength. That was how terrifying its might had become.

Although the Dragon Thunder Blast was Tang Wulin’s original soul skill, the strength of its might was on par with Tang Wulin’s own eighth soul ring’s soul skill. It was equivalent to an all-out strike when he was in his martial soul avatar mode.

The burly man’s rotten luck was that he happened to be the test subject for Tang Wulin’s soul skill and the entire small plane.

Lan Fozi strolled in the great forest. On his face was a curious look. It was his first time walking in such a lush forest. However, he liked places which were filled with a life aura very much.

“It feels great! Although it’s not so suitable for me, it’s wonderful to be in such an environment. I wonder if the continent’s soul beasts of old actually lived in such an environment. With such a dense life aura, I really have the urge to cultivate.”

“I wonder where that guy’s been transported to. Will we bump into each other? Eh? Why is it darker in front? What a huge vine!”

As he walked, Lan Fozi observed everything around him. He suddenly noticed a giant vine not far ahead of him. There were huge buds on the tips of the vines. The outer layers of the buds were dark green, but their tips were bright red. They looked like they were ready to bloom.

‘When such huge buds blossom, the flowers must be more than five meters in diameter! What a peculiar plant!’

The vine was more than fifteen meters tall. Its huge buds swayed gently which made it look enticing.
