Chapter 729: Soul Skill Fusion, Joyful Sadness
729 - Soul Skill Fusion, Joyful Sadness
Soul Skill Fusion was a different kind of qualitative change from the fusion of two different Martial Souls. A Soul Skill Fusion was a combination of two soul skills, producing an effect greater than one plus one equals two. There was no doubt that Martial Soul Fusion skills were naturally stronger, but a Soul Skill Fusion had its strong points. If used well, it could also greatly increase a soul saster's strength. Furthermore, a Soul Skill Fusion wasn't limited to just two people; many people could unleash one together.
This first sword strike was actually a Soul Skill Fusion.
Joyful Sadness !
Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu's emotions were affected as the saddest thing Bai Xiuxiu had experienced surfaced in her mind. But what appeared in Lan Xuanyu's mind was his happiest moment.
He was surprised to find that when he thought about his happiest moment, there were actually alternating scenes. One was when he was hugged by Teacher Nana, and the other was when Mr. Le carried him and sang at the concert.
As the sword shadow approached, Lan Xuanyu's originally confused eyes suddenly lit up. He raised his head and looked into the sky. His body moved along with the changes in his eyes and a green light appeared. He pulled Bai Xiuxiu and both of them retreated at the same time.
"Clang clang!" Two sword shadows landed on the ground, leaving two deep marks.
Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing revealed looks of surprise. Although they didn't expect this first strike to be of much use, they thought that it would at least force Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu's One-Word Battle Armors out. They didn't expect Lan Xuanyu to actually wake up before being struck by the sword shadow. This meant that Lan Xuanyu's spiritual power was above theirs.
But he only had four rings! Why was his spiritual power so strong?
At this moment, Bai Xiuxiu was already awake. She held the ice spear in her right hand and scales quickly appeared on both her and Lan Xuanyu's skin.
Deep purple scales drilled out of Bai Xiuxiu's body with a faint purple glow while golden scales appeared on Lan Xuanyu's body. At the same time, a golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Bai Xiuxiu's waist.
Bai Xiuxiu's body flashed and the ice tide behind her shot forward like lightning. Lan Xuanyu followed closely behind her under the pulling of the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass.
Opposite them, Murong Shang and Xue Yubing's footsteps turned illusory at the same time. Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu were extremely familiar with that footwork; it was the Tang Sect's secret technique—Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
The two swords stabbed out once again. This time, the sorrowful cries and joyous laughter became even louder as the third soul ring on both of their bodies lit up. The light on Mu Rongshang's side turned dim while Xue Yubing's side became exceptionally bright.
Strong emotions fluctuated violently and spread in the air. The sword shadow formed a crying face and a smiling face in the air.
Second Soul Skill Fusion, Heaven Laughs Earth Cries.
But this time, Bai Xiuxiu was prepared. Her eyes turned dark blue and a gigantic shadow appeared behind her. It was no longer the appearance of the Devil Soul Great White Shark but an illusory giant dragon head. The eyes of the dragon head turned dark blue. It was Deep Blue Gaze, the Deep Blue Gaze of the Abyss Ice Demon Dragon!
The crying face and smiling face suddenly fused together, and Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing's bodies became illusory in an instant. The two faces disappeared in an instant, but they were not affected by Deep Blue Gaze, and the two sword shadows continued to descend from the sky.
Immune to control?
At the cost of sacrificing their soul skills, they were actually immune to Deep Blue Gaze's control!
While Lan Xuanyu was surprised, the sword shadow arrived.
Bai Xiuxiu raised the ice spear in her hand and the dark purple dragon scales on her body turned bright purple.
"Dang dang" Two crisp sounds resounded as the two sword shadows shattered instantly. Bai Xiuxiu didn't take a step back as the purple light on her body intensified. The fifth orange-gold soul ring beneath her feet suddenly shone brightly.
She took a step forward and arrived in front of Lan Xuanyu. The color of the ice spear in her hand had turned dark purple. With her body as the center, dark purple halos formed by countless dark purple light bands spread outwards.
The space around her instantly collapsed, and it seemed to have become a gigantic black hole that devoured everything. As a result, Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing's third slash was devoured by it and disappeared.
In the face of this super strong soul skill, Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing's expressions remained unchanged as they threw the long swords in their hands at the same time. The two long swords flew to both sides and instantly escaped the range of the dark purple halo. However, their bodies were about to be covered by the halo.
Right at this moment, their bodies turned illusory and the fifth soul ring on their bodies became exceptionally bright.
The Heaven Holy Sword and Heaven's Downfall Sword suddenly shone brightly, and their attack speed was twice as fast as before while Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing's figures disappeared in an instant.
One with the sword, transform into the sword!
This response was brilliant. Although Bai Xiuxiu's soul skill was powerful, it landed in thin air. The two flying swords drew two arcs in the air and charged towards Lan Xuanyu with cries and laughter.
Lan Xuanyu's golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass was cut in an instant. The Heaven's Downfall Sword and the Heaven Holy Sword collided and actually stuck together, turning into a long sword that arrived before him in the blink of an eye.
Third Soul Skill Fusion, Twin Swords Combined, Partings And Reunions !
It looked like a long sword, but the emotions on it were like a vortex that wanted to pull Lan Xuanyu into it. That long sword was imbued with the soul power of two Soul Emperors.
They were determined to win this match. When they went out to battle and discovered that their opponent would be the leader Lan Xuanyu, Mu Rongshang and Xue Yubing were already prepared for this. If they could severely injure Lan Xuanyu, it would undoubtedly be of great help to the team battle after that.
As a fourth-year support-type soul master, Lan Xuanyu's individual combat power was the weakest. In their opinion, it was good even if they could only force Lan Xuanyu to use his Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd because it was obvious that he wouldn't be able to use it again after using it once. If not for the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, he only had four rings. What could he do in a team battle?
Lan Xuanyu immediately fell into a crisis, and the spectators held their breaths.
Lan Xuanyu's emotions were indeed affected as the gold and silver vortex in his Spiritual Sea spun violently. The gold and silver colors in his eyes suddenly became distinct, and the emotional fluctuations in the outside world were instantly blocked.
It should be known that there were very few students in the Outer Court who could enter the Spirit Abyss realm with their spiritual power. Furthermore, Lan Xuanyu's spiritual power had already reached the Spirit Abyss realm for a very long time.
It was too late for Bai Xiuxiu to assist Lan Xuanyu because everything happened too quickly. She, who was far away, could only utilize her Demonic Domain to release a strong suction force. Although she was extremely far away, the suction force from the two swords slowed down slightly.
The golden scales on Lan Xuanyu's body suddenly sparkled like a mirror. He roared and a gigantic golden dragon head appeared.
It was the third soul skill of the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass, Golden Dragon Roar!
The cries and laughter were drowned out in an instant. At the same time, he did not retreat but instead, he bent his waist and stood in a horse stance with both hands clasped together.
The silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass and gold-patterned Blue Silver Grass on his hands curled up and covered his palms. A strange scene appeared.
A golden dragon soared into the sky with a four-colored light bead in its mouth as a ball of light was spat out.
"Boom——" The glaring four-colored light first spread out and then retracted. The golden dragon scales on Lan Xuanyu's body suddenly became extremely dazzling
