Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 142

Enshrouded by the golden light, Tai Tan felt a strong mental shock. He thought he had seen Huo Yuhao's strength, but at this moment, he truly realized that the young man in front of him had an unfathomable depth. Destiny! The gaze of the soul not only made Tai Tan feel an unprecedented sense of threat, but also brought an irresistible force to the golden skull on his head, which seemed to be slowly depriving him of his strength and will.

Then, the white light from the Eye of Destiny made Titan feel that his body's strength was rapidly draining away. His originally strong muscles seemed to become heavy, and his speed and reaction were significantly affected. Huo Yuhao successfully transformed this group weakening skill into a single-target version, and the effect was more concentrated and powerful than before, directly weakening Titan's combat power.

"Good boy, you can actually transform group control skills into single-target control, and it's so accurate!" Tai Tan secretly marveled in his heart, but his face showed a stronger fighting spirit. He knew that Huo Yuhao was challenging his limits. Although he had felt the pressure, it did not make him back down, but instead aroused the fighting spirit deep in his heart.

"Very good, Yuhao, you do have impressive strength!" Tai Tan said in a deep voice, with golden light flashing in his eyes, as if he was resisting the influence of the Eye of Destiny. He took a deep breath, and his momentum surged again. Every muscle in his body seemed to be trembling, but it exuded a stronger pressure.

Huo Yuhao felt Titan's reaction and his heart tightened. He knew that although he had the upper hand for a while, facing a strong man like Titan, if he relaxed a little, he might be caught off guard by the counterattack. He quickly mobilized the soul power in his body and prepared to continue the attack.

However, at this moment, Titan suddenly let out a thunderous roar, and his muscles suddenly swelled, forcibly repelling the influence of the Eye of Destiny. The weakening effect that originally suppressed him was also forcibly pushed back by his strong willpower.

“Hahaha, kid, not bad! But, you are still a little tender!” Titan laughed and stepped on the ground. The ground suddenly cracked and his speed increased suddenly, as if a giant mountain was rushing towards Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao’s pupils shrank slightly. He knew very well that he could not match Titan in terms of strength. His mind raced and he made a quick decision. With a flash of his body, he used the power of extreme ice to form a layer of frost on the ground. He used the force of sliding to quickly retreat and create some distance between him and the opponent.

However, Titan's speed was even faster than he had imagined. He was not hindered at all on the ice. Instead, he used the ice to speed up. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Huo Yuhao and slapped him with his hand.

Huo Yuhao only felt a flash before his eyes and had no time to react. He could only instinctively concentrate all his strength in his arms and fight hard.

“Bang——” Huo Yuhao was knocked flying backwards by this powerful palm, but he flipped in the air, dissipating most of the impact force, and finally landed steadily. Although he was a little embarrassed, he was not injured.

“Come again!” Titan shouted, and he had obviously entered into a complete combat state. He no longer held back, and tried his best to force out Huo Yuhao’s true strength.

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, knowing that he had been forced into a desperate situation by the completely enraged Titan. However, it was also under such oppression that his potential was constantly being stimulated. He quickly adjusted his mentality and prepared to face the next fierce attack. This battle had just begun.

Huo Yuhao moved. His martial spirit switched instantly, and five spirit rings, one red and four orange, suddenly rose up. His entire aura also changed instantly. The biting cold wind on the top of the mountain seemed to suddenly become stronger, not because the wind became stronger, but because the temperature became lower.

Titan's eyes suddenly widened, and he shouted, "Open!"

Without seeing how he moved, the white light attached to him instantly dissipated.

This was the absolute gap in strength. Even without releasing his martial spirit, Titan's own powerful soul power and mental strength could not be controlled by Huo Yuhao's soul control skills. His weakness skill that changed from a group to a single target and released through the Eye of Destiny was very powerful, but due to the huge gap in cultivation, it ultimately failed to last.

But it must be said that fate! The Soul's Gaze showed its powerful side at this time. The weakness was broken free, but the golden skull still appeared steadily above the Titan's head.

Huo Yuhao rushed towards Titan again, and there was a layer of green in his eyes.

Diamond ice crystals covered his entire body, and the Ice Emperor's body protection had already been activated. The Ice Emperor's claws had already been released. The extreme coldness emerged from his body surface.

If pure fighting skills cannot threaten the opponent, then he must change the way he fights.

Huo Yuhao's figure suddenly became illusory after stepping on the Ghost Shadow Step. When seeing his Ghost Shadow Step, Tai Tan and Niu Tian both showed a smile on their faces, as if they had seen something very close to them.

Huo Yuhao quickly adjusted during the battle, showing his strong combat wisdom and adaptability. As his martial spirit switched, his aura suddenly changed, and the extreme coldness of ice quickly spread, and the temperature of the entire mountaintop dropped, as if even the moisture in the air was instantly frozen.

When Tai Tan saw this, his eyes showed approval. He shouted "Open" and instantly released Huo Yuhao's control skills. This huge power gap made Huo Yuhao realize that it was almost impossible to win in a head-on confrontation. However, he did not back down, but immediately chose to change his tactics.

As the Frost Body Guard was activated, Huo Yuhao's body was covered with a layer of diamond-like ice crystals. The extreme cold air surrounded him, and he seemed to have turned into a walking piece of ice. The Frost Attack was also released at this moment, shining with silver light and extremely sharp.

Huo Yuhao no longer attacked directly, but activated the Ghost Shadow Phantom, and his body became illusory in an instant, and his figure was erratic. When Tai Tan and Niu Tian saw this step, they smiled with relief at the same time, as if they saw a fighting style that they were familiar with.

Ghost Shadow is one of the Tang Sect's unique skills. It uses strange footwork to confuse the opponent. Combined with Huo Yuhao's mental strength and the ultimate ice spirit, the power is doubled. Huo Yuhao quickly approached Titan with this footwork, and at the same time used the sharpness of the Ice Emperor's claws to find Titan's flaws. His attack is no longer a simple power confrontation, but full of skills and wisdom. Every attack is full of calculation and rhythm.

Tai Tan's eyes gradually became serious. Although he was powerful, he felt a little pressure facing such a flexible opponent. Huo Yuhao's footwork made it difficult for him to predict, and the extreme coldness of the ice continued to weaken his reaction speed.

"Good boy, you are really good!" Tai Tan praised, but he did not relax at all, but became more cautious. He knew that Huo Yuhao was looking for an opportunity, so he also kept adjusting his battle rhythm to avoid being pinned down by Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao continued to use the Ghost Shadow Footwork to get closer to Titan, looking for the best time to attack. Finally, in a flash, his figure suddenly appeared on the side of Titan, and a frost attack suddenly attacked, aiming directly at Titan's waist. Titan's face changed. Although he reacted quickly, he was still forced to step back a few steps by Huo Yuhao's attack. He raised his hand to block, and the cold air instantly invaded his body, making him feel a bone-chilling chill.

"Good! That's more like it!" A hint of fighting spirit flashed in Tai Tan's eyes. He knew that Huo Yuhao had already given his all, and he had to take this battle seriously. Tai Tan shouted loudly, and his momentum surged again. He swung out with his right fist, and the wind from his fist drove the violent soul power, and he went straight to Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao felt the strong pressure from Titan and quickly adjusted his body to dodge flexibly. He knew that Titan's power should not be underestimated, and any head-on confrontation could put him at a disadvantage. So, he continued to move around with the ghostly footwork, while constantly looking for Titan's flaws, and the frost force attacks became more and more accurate.

Tai Tan chuckled and let him hit him. He swept his left arm and hit Huo Yuhao at the same time. He looked like he wanted to trade injuries for injuries. But Huo Yuhao knew that if he really met him like this, he would be the only one hurt.

However, Huo Yuhao was waiting for this moment of getting close. A emerald green light suddenly shone, and extreme coldness instantly spread, creating a realm of eternal freezing!

Even someone with the cultivation level of Qin Tan shuddered under the ultimate Ice Soul Branch of the domain type. A sharp blade instantly spurted out from Huo Yuhao's right hand. It was the Dark Gold Terror Claw that made the move.

Titan's left arm swept across with immense force, as if to crush Huo Yuhao with absolute strength. However, Huo Yuhao was well prepared, and he was waiting for this moment.

The moment the Titan approached, the emerald green light in Huo Yuhao's eyes suddenly shone, and the extreme coldness instantly spread around, forming a domain that froze everything - the eternal frozen domain! In this domain, the invasion of cold air made the air stagnant, as if even time was frozen at this moment.

Even a cultivator as powerful as Titan felt the bone-chilling coldness under the cover of the Everfreeze. His movements froze slightly, and the entire person was instantly frozen in time, losing a bit of his smoothness.

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's right hand had already slapped towards Titan's body. As his right hand approached, the dark gold claw suddenly stretched out, and the sharp blade pierced Titan's chest like a golden lightning.

A hint of approval flashed in Titan's eyes, but his body reacted extremely quickly. Even under the influence of the Eternal Frozen Realm, he still quickly adjusted his posture and tried to block the fatal blow with his left arm.

However, Huo Yuhao's movements were extremely agile. With the help of the Everfreeze Domain, his speed and strength were greatly enhanced. The dark gold claws drew an arc in the air, bypassing the Titan's block and fiercely stabbing his shoulder.

"Bang!" The sound of the blade piercing was clearly audible, but just when Huo Yuhao thought he had succeeded, Titan's body suddenly burst into a strong golden light. It was the shield formed by Titan's powerful soul power's automatic defense. Although the dark gold claws were sharp, they stopped for a moment in front of the golden shield.

In that short moment, Tai Tan had come to his senses. He shouted, and powerful soul power surged out like a torrent, shaking off Huo Yuhao's attack. His left arm swept across again, forcing Huo Yuhao with unparalleled strength.

Huo Yuhao immediately retreated, using the Ghost Shadow Footwork to dodge Titan's counterattack. Although he failed to completely hit Titan, the chill of the Everfrost Domain successfully disrupted the opponent's rhythm, making him feel real pressure.

Titan looked at Huo Yuhao and said with a smile, “Boy, you have some skills. But you’re still a little short of perfection.” As soon as he finished speaking, his momentum surged again, and he was ready to launch a stronger attack.

“Is that all you have, kid? That’s all?” Qin Tan brushed off the ice chips on his body, looked at his torn sleeves, and nodded secretly in his heart. After enduring Huo Yuhao’s series of attacks, he had a good idea of ​​the young man’s cultivation. In Tai Tan’s opinion, the following soul skills were not particularly outstanding. The ultimate ice could not threaten Huo Yuhao at this level. What impressed him most was Huo Yuhao’s first punch, which completely combined mental strength, momentum and soul power, and left a deep impression on him. Based on that punch alone, Tai Tan could conclude that Wang Dong was probably not Huo Yuhao’s opponent at the moment.

Huo Yuhao smiled bitterly and said, “I am far behind you.”

Tai Tan laughed loudly, his voice like thunder, "Don't underestimate yourself, kid! You're already very good to be able to hold on in front of me until now. Young people should have confidence, understand?"

As he spoke, he looked at Huo Yuhao, his eyes showing admiration. Although Tai Tan did not agree with Huo Yuhao's Ultimate Ice, he also knew that Huo Yuhao's potential was far more than that, especially the first punch, which showed Huo Yuhao's deep understanding of mental strength and combat awareness.

"That was a good punch," Titan continued, "You combined your mental and soul power very well, but remember in the future, strength, skill, and spirit, these three must be perfectly combined to achieve the greatest effect in battle. Your strength is good, and what you need to do next is to continue to hone it, especially your Ultimate Ice, and don't relax your control over it."

Huo Yuhao listened to Tai Tan's teachings and was secretly grateful in his heart. He bowed deeply and said sincerely: "Thank you for your guidance. I will keep it in mind."

Tai Tan waved his hand and smiled, "Okay, don't thank me. I just showed you a way. The real practice still depends on you. If you don't understand anything in the future, you can come to me. Remember, never stop learning."

Huo Yuhao nodded solemnly, his heart filled with gratitude and respect for Tai Tan. After this battle and guidance, he had a clearer understanding of his cultivation direction and was more determined about his future goals.

"I will continue to work hard!" Huo Yuhao's eyes were firm and his tone revealed great determination.

Tai Tan smiled slightly and patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder. "Good boy, it's good to have this enthusiasm. Remember, there are no shortcuts on the road to becoming strong. Only by constantly breaking through yourself can you truly become stronger."

Huo Yuhao took a deep breath, felt the strength coming from his shoulders, and his heart was filled with fighting spirit.
