Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 35: Black fog is growing, and it is killed with one strike!

The next day, as the morning light had just set over the horizon, a number of luxurious soul guide vehicles gathered in the parking lot on the side of the Tianling Tower.

After the inspection, the bustling crowd chatted and laughed, and then walked into the tower that reached into the sky. The deserted hall suddenly became lively.

During the riot period, the Soul Ascension Platforms of primary, intermediate and advanced levels are opened at the same time, which means that soul masters of different levels can easily see them today.

But the largest number of people are those who are about to enter the primary spirit-raising platform.

Sitting on the sofa in the corner, Nan Liujing watched the boys and girls walk past him. Some were wearing Shrek school uniforms, some were wearing comfortable casual clothes, and some even had their hair combed like adults and walked in wearing formal clothes.

[No. 30 on the Talented Youth List: Swan Mojue]

[No. 27 on the Talented Youth List: Black Turtle Xu Cang]

[No. 24 on the Talented Youth List: Qiankun Li Qiankun]

[No. 21 on the Talented Youth List: Lan Dian Yu Jiutian]

In a short period of time, Nan Liujing saw four people on the list who were under the age of fifteen.

Mo Jue and Li Qiankun are old acquaintances. In the original time and space, when Tang Wulin was in the first grade, they were the class monitor and vice-class monitor of the third grade. They were also the only two one-character battle armor masters among the soul masters under the age of twenty in Shrek at that time. Now they look to be about thirteen or fourteen years old.

I'm not very clear about this black turtle. There is no record of it in the original time and space, and it is not wearing the Shrek school uniform. It seems to be younger than Mo Jue and Li Qiankun.

The only person that interested Nan Liujing was Yu Jiutian, whose nickname was Lan Dian. He looked only about twelve years old, only three years older than him, and was actually ranked above Mo Jue and Li Qiankun.

The only spirit that can be called Blue Lightning in Douluo Continent is the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Could it be that this person is the captain who led Shrek Academy to a demonstration match in the East China Sea Federation Competition in the original time and space?

A guess emerged in Nan Liujing's mind.

As he was thinking this, a figure strode into the hall. She had a golden ponytail, delicate and pretty features, and heroic eyes and eyebrows. Who else could it be but Ye Xinglan?

"I'm not too late."

Ye Xinglan saw Nan Liujing standing up and waving at him, and walked towards him with a smile.

Nan Liujing was just about to respond to the greeting when his brows suddenly frowned. In the crowd not far away, a young man in Shrek school uniform stared at Ye Xinglan for several times, as if he was confirming something. Then, with a grim expression, he started chatting privately with Yu Jiutian.

Yu Jiutian's eyes changed obviously, and he casually glanced at Ye Xinglan's back, as if he remembered her.

Looking at Ye Xinglan who was walking towards him excitedly, Nan Liujing smiled helplessly. Well, it seems that I will be busy when I enter the Spirit Ascension Platform.

"Here." Nan Liujing took out the qualification card.

Ye Xinglan took it casually, stood beside Nan Liujing, looked at the crowd gathered in the hall, and whispered: "It's worthy of being a riot period spiritual ascension platform, people just gather together."

Nan Liujing nodded and said, "There are two riot periods every year. The end of each one means that the Young Talent Ranking will be reshuffled. All the major spirit master forces are watching the results, so how can they not be together?"

During the week when the Soul Ascension Platform is open during the riot period, the Soul Transmission Tower will convey the situation inside the Soul Ascension Platform in real time, and different soul master forces will also use this report as an assessment of their family members.

What's more, in today's Douluo Continent, there is no traditional continent-wide elite soul master competition anymore. The Spirit Ascension Platform is an alternative competition, which is just a personal comparison.

"Now we will officially begin checking the qualification cards for the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Not long after, a chief steward of the Spirit Ascension Platform and three deacons of the Spirit Ascension Platform came out to make a statement.

Hundreds of people gathered in the hall, each taking out their qualification cards and handing them to the staff slowly.

There are designated elevators to reach different levels of the Spirit Ascension Platform.

Nan Liujing did not use his identity to enter directly, but kept observing his peers to determine his target.

Ye Xinglan had similar thoughts as him, and it was unknown who would be lucky enough to be stabbed in the butt by her with the Star God Sword.

The Shrek student who insulted her with money that day was stabbed in the butt by her sword.

After passing the inspection, Nan Liujing and Ye Xinglan entered the elevator with several other unfamiliar spirit masters. After descending, they arrived at the underground registration hall. This was to confirm the team members so they could wake up together. After completing this step, three staff members would then lead them to the spirit raising room.

"The Soul Ascension Platform is extremely dangerous during the riot period. The soul beasts' desire to fight will be strengthened, and we encourage soul masters to fight each other. If you think you are not strong enough, don't force yourself. It is not shameful to press the rescue signal." A staff member said to everyone earnestly.

Everyone nodded silently and quickly lay down in the Spirit Ascension Warehouse skillfully.

His consciousness was blurred, and when he woke up again, he was already in an ancient forest.

A cool breeze blew from somewhere. Nan Liujing and Ye Xinglan opened their eyes at the same time and stared around vigilantly.

"What should we do next?" Ye Xinglan asked softly.

Nan Liujing glanced at the quiet jungle and said, "I have a mission to accomplish. What about you?"

Ye Xinglan shook his head: "I came here because of your invitation, otherwise I would still be practicing sword at home."

Nan Liujing heard this and said, "Then follow me. Oh, by the way, have you maxed out your soul age?"

"Whizzing."

The sound of his body rubbing against the leaves was extremely subtle, as if caused by the wind, but his mental strength had already broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm thanks to his understanding and practice of the laws over the past month, and Nan Liujing instantly caught sight of something unusual.

His right hand flashed with lightning, and the Panlong Stick suddenly extended out and pierced into one of the ancient trees.

Ye Xinglan's words were on the tip of his tongue, but before he could finish them, he saw the Panlong stick poking out from in front of him. Then he reacted and starlight appeared in his right hand, transforming into a bright yellow sword.

"boom."

There was a clear feedback from the Panlong Stick. As the two watched, an ape-like soul beast with electricity all over its body fell to the ground from above the ancient tree.

"Iron-Armed Ape." Ye Xinglan recognized it at a glance.

Suddenly, a tingling electric current swept through her, causing the hair on her forehead to straighten. She saw Nan Liujing's body filled with lightning, and he rushed towards the Iron-Armed Ape, who was temporarily paralyzed by the electric current, at an extremely fast speed.

Without waiting for the Iron-Armed Ape to break free from the paralysis, Nan Liujing swung it through the air like hitting a baseball. With a bang, the ferocious beast's skull exploded, and only the body remained and fell to the ground.

From the time the strange noise appeared to the time of killing, Nan Liujing took no more than five seconds.

"You're too fast." Ye Xinglan took a few steps forward, staring at the corpse on the ground turning into a spiritual light spot, and clicked his tongue slightly.

Be careful or I'll sue you for defamation, Nan Liujing retorted in his heart: "When a threat appears, of course we have to kill it as quickly as possible."

"Let's go find someone."

The two of them moved quickly and headed towards other areas.

Just a few minutes after the two left, a figure walked out from the darkness.

After glancing at the slightly charred ground, Xu Sheng looked up and around again, and gently pressed down a certain instrument on his left hand.

After a moment, the screen on the surface of the instrument scanned out like a radar and finally locked onto a direction.

call out.

His body was wrapped in a black airflow and hidden in the dense bushes, disappearing in a moment.

The Spirit Ascension Platform during the riot period was more lively than Nan Liujing and Ye Xinglan had imagined.

The two stood on a thick branch, staring at the herd of spirit beasts running by. The entire ground was shaking slightly. Occasionally, the screams of spirit masters and the roar of spirit skills could be heard, making the place quite lively.

In just over ten minutes, the two witnessed more than fifteen people being torn to pieces by various thousand-year soul beasts or hundred-year soul beasts that had entered a frenzied state, and painfully leaving the space of the Soul Ascension Platform.

We also saw soul masters fighting each other for spiritual power, and in the end someone took advantage of them.

But at this time, there was still no opponent that satisfied Nan Liujing. There was nothing he could do. Although it was a simulated outer circle of the Star Dou Great Forest, the area of ​​the primary spirit-raising platform was still too large. Even if the spirit towers of more than a dozen cities were added together and thousands of people entered it, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. It would be difficult to find an opponent.

At this moment, Nan Liujing actually hoped that there would be a ranking list in the Soul Ascension Platform. Whoever killed more soul beasts would appear on the list, and their positions would also be marked, so that it would be easier for him to find some.

"Keep going."

When everything around them became quiet, the two of them immediately jumped down from the tree.

The moment he was about to land, Nan Liujing's mental power suddenly sent a warning feedback. His left hand stretched out like lightning and hugged Ye Xinglan in his arms. His right hand poked the Panlong stick into the ground, and after the stick extended, it led him to rise into the air again.

Ye Xinglan was hugged without any preparation. Feeling the strong and powerful embrace and the fresh fragrance emanating from Nan Liujing's body, her pretty face suddenly turned red for a moment.

"boom!"

But just as she felt embarrassed, a scene appeared on the grass below that made her pupils shrink.

Right where the two had originally landed, the ground broke open, and dark green fog with corrosive power squeezed out madly, and the grass leaves around them quickly rotted. In the misty fog, a dark green soul beast as thick as a water tank showed its true form. The centipede that was like a sharp steel blade looked like a deadly dark sickle in the dim environment.

The most terrifying part is its head, which looks like the skinned eyeball of a living person. Its compound eyes are covered with scarlet bloodshot and filled with extreme desire to kill.

"Corrosive Centipede!"

Ye Xinglan's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that the soul beast that launched the sneak attack would be it.

During the heyday of soul beasts, the Corrosive Centipede was definitely one of the soul beasts that hunted the most humans, comparable to the human-faced demon spider. On the primary soul-raising platform with the highest limit of the third ring, it was definitely one of the most difficult opponents.

"Hiss." A sound like the hissing of a poisonous snake came from the mouthparts of the corrosive centipede. Its four-meter-long body was actually humanely wrapping around the Panlong Stick. Dark green poisonous mist poured out from its rusty shell and spread upwards.

A corrosive centipede that was no more than a thousand years old was a threat to others, but to Nan Liujing, it was just an appetizer. A dark blue soul light emerged from his body, and the Panlong Stick suddenly bounced off a strong electric current, shining brightly like a lightning rod, and the huge body of the corrosive centipede was immediately swallowed up. The powerful shell did not play any defensive role at all, and a burnt smell wafted away.

Ye Xinglan did not watch the whole process. After finding the right moment, he broke away from Nan Liujing's arms, used the Panlong Stick to gain momentum and stepped out. Two yellow soul rings rose on his body. As the first soul ring lit up, the Star God Sword in his hand shot out a ball of starlight, which dissipated the poisonous fog. Hundreds of sharp sword edges contained in it all fell on the head of the Corrosive Centipede.

Due to the erosion by lightning, the powerful shell defense had long been broken, and the starlight pierced its head in an instant.

The murderous desire in the Corrosive Centipede's eyes quickly disappeared.

After Nan Liujing returned to the surface, Ye Xinglan couldn't help but say, "Your mental strength is really strong. We were almost tricked by this thing."

"what happened?"

Not hearing anyone talking around him, Ye Xinglan became alert again.

Nan Liujing watched the corpse of the corrosive centipede dissipate, but no spiritual light appeared. He said calmly, "Friend, there's really no need to hide in the dark and test me. If you want to spar with me, then come out directly. Don't wait for me to come to you personally. The consequences will be very serious."

Ye Xinglan's beautiful eyes calmly scanned the surroundings. She never doubted the judgment of those around her.

In the vast forest, there was occasional wind blowing, but no human voice was heard.

"Heh." Nan Liujing chuckled, "If you don't accept my toast, I'll drink the penalty."

zizi.

Raging electric currents spread out from Nan Liujing's body, and two purple soul rings rose under his feet. The first soul ring emitted a luxurious purple light. In an instant, his body splashed like a fountain and merged into the elemental energy of heaven and earth.

About a hundred meters away from the outbreak point of the battle, Xu Sheng stared at Nan Liujing and Ye Xinglan indifferently, not taking the warning seriously at all.

In his palm, a ball of black mist condensed, surrounded by three soul rings, two yellow and one purple.

Black Mist, his martial soul, can mold clay like a mold, creating puppets to assist and fuse soul skills into combat. This martial soul's unique characteristic is that if soul rings are obtained from hunting soul beasts, the soul skill can create a corresponding soul beast puppet. If it relies on the soul spirit, the puppet created is relatively simple, but the individual strength is increased, similar to the stacking of soul skills.

His goal was to secretly test Nan Liujing's abilities, the more detailed the better.

As he stared at it, seeing Nan Liujing turning into electric current and splashing out, Xu Sheng couldn't help but become alert.

"Have you ever seen a stick technique that falls from the sky?"

A playful laugh came from above.

Xu Sheng's pupils shrank, and his third soul skill was immediately activated. A thick black mist instantly enveloped him.

"Roar!"

The passionate dragon roar shook the mountains and forests, and countless soul beasts trembled. The dragon's tail, like the whip of Thunder God, fell down fiercely, and the violent electric current rushed like a raging wave, leaving a tangled crack in the air.

With a loud bang, the entire ground collapsed, and dark blue arcs of electricity dyed the earth into a sea of ​​thunder. The terrifying high temperature turned everything into a charred state.

"call out."

A wisp of black mist flashed with arcs of electricity and fled out from the broken earth.

Nan Liujing looked at the black fog from the charred earth that was torn into pieces.

Ye Xinglan ran over quickly, ignoring the tragic situation on the ground. He stared at the black fog that was escaping very slowly and said coldly, "Is this the guy who attacked us? I mean, why didn't the spiritual power appear after the Corrosive Centipede died?"

Nan Liujing shouldered the Coiling Dragon Staff and said calmly, "Twenty-sixth on the list of genius teenagers is Black Mist Xu Sheng. His cultivation is estimated to be around level thirty-five. Thanks to him, I saved a lot of time looking for someone."

The two of them quickly caught up with the black mist that Xu Sheng had transformed into, as if they were taking a walk.

Nan Liujing saw that the opponent's move could make him immune to physical attacks, but he could not be completely immune to elemental attacks of thunder attribute.

You are at the end of your rope!

As for why he could find the other party, it was very simple. The Thunder Dragon Breaking the Sky soul skill was to integrate the body into the elemental energy of heaven and earth. At this time, Nan Liujing became a part of the natural elements, just like Huo Yuhao turned on the perspective plug-in, and he could easily lock onto the target within a radius of 150 meters.

Unless you can isolate the thunder element between heaven and earth, you will be exposed.

This soul-calling skill can kill the enemy when attacking, and can also allow the user to escape over a hundred meters like teleporting when retreating. It is simply omnipotent.

"puff."

As the electric arcs lingering above the black fog dissipated, a figure appeared and suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

Xu Sheng sat on the ground, his breath weak. Large areas of his skin were burned black by the high temperature of the electric current. He looked at the boy who slowly walked towards him with horror: "How did you find me?"

The Black Mist Martial Soul is not a top-level martial soul, but it is unpredictable and has the natural ability to conceal its own breath. Relying on the characteristics of his martial soul, he has killed many people in the Soul Ascension Platform and even entered the intermediate Soul Ascension Platform. He also used the Black Mist Puppet to play tricks on a Soul King. Who would have thought that he would fall here today.

"I told you that when I find you in person, the consequences will be severe."

What Xu Sheng waited for was not an answer, but Nan Liujing's expressionless blow. The next moment, he lost all consciousness.

"No!"

In the Shengling Warehouse, Xu Sheng suddenly sat up. The pain of his head being smashed made his face extremely pale, cold sweat kept flowing, and his whole body was shaking.

Snapped!
Suddenly, a hand grabbed his shoulder. Xu Sheng's body trembled and he turned his head to look. What he saw was Qiangu Dongfeng's stern face.
