Chapter 74: Defeating Long Aotian, Seeking Advice on the Second Awakening of the Main Body Martial Soul!
As the fourth spirit ring shone, Liu Yuan's spirit power fluctuated violently like boiling magma.
Under the enhancement of "ultimate sublimation", the dark green halo gradually evolved into a deep, metallic dark gold luster, making him look like an ancient deity.
At this moment, the aura emanating from Liu Yuan had indeed reached an extremely terrifying level.
Although the ordinary disciples in the audience were still of low cultivation level and unable to accurately perceive the specific level to which Liu Yuan's attributes had increased after activating his fourth soul skill...
But the overwhelming sense of oppression was completely different from before.
If Liu Yuan was a sharp sword poised to strike before, then he is now a volcano that has fully erupted.
"Is...is this really the aura that a level 44 Soul Master can emit?"
As Chen Lu felt the oppressive aura emanating from the center of the arena, his face turned pale, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Wang Yanfeng also abandoned his usual playful demeanor. He subconsciously clenched his fist and said in a deep voice, "I feel that Senior Brother Liu Yuan has become unfathomable. Even just standing there makes me feel suffocated and unable to breathe."
Gu Tong adjusted her glasses, staring blankly at the dark gold figure in the arena.
Vina stared intently at Liu Yuan, her eyes burning with admiration: "Is this your new power? It's amazing..."
At the top of the training ground, Elder Chen's breathing became somewhat rapid.
As an elder of the sect, he had seen countless brilliant geniuses, but he had never seen anyone like Liu Yuan, who could unleash such power at the Soul Sect level that was enough to shake the Soul King.
He turned to the composed Poison Immortal and asked, "Sect Master, is this why you have always been optimistic about Liu Yuan?"
"The amplification from this fourth soul skill is indeed very strong, it can even be described as heaven-defying."
"Even so, it's probably still not certain that he could win if he wanted to cross a major realm to defeat Long Aotian, who has a second awakening at the Silver level."
Du Busi merely glanced at Elder Chen, his lips still bearing that unfathomable smile, and replied calmly, "Don't underestimate 'Ultimate Sublimation,' and even less so the profound power of Double Pupils."
"You'll see as you keep watching; the real battle has only just begun."
While the audience below the stage was buzzing with discussion, the atmosphere in the center of the ring had already reached freezing point.
After sensing Liu Yuan's aura, Long Aotian showed no fear whatsoever; instead, he became somewhat excited.
The fighting spirit in his eyes was completely ignited, and the silver light around his body became even more condensed.
"As expected of you, junior brother, you are indeed powerful after activating your fourth soul skill."
"I have never seen such an increase in any of the sect's records before."
Long Aotian exclaimed in admiration, and then his blood and qi surged like a dragon.
"Since that's the case, then I'll have to go all out, otherwise it would be disrespectful to you!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Long Aotian launched another attack. He stomped his foot on the ground, shattering the granite beneath his feet, and appeared before Liu Yuan as if by teleportation.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Mad God Slash!"
With the blessing of Silver Awakening, Long Aotian's right arm transformed into a scythe that was even larger than before, its entire body shimmering with a cold silver light.
This attack not only condensed his powerful level 52 soul power, but also contained the explosive power of his physical body after the qualitative change of his martial soul. The air exploded like thunder along the path of the scythe.
However, Liu Yuan was not afraid at all in the face of this unstoppable attack.
After activating "Ultimate Sublimation", his mental strength, soul power, and physical agility all increased by at least double.
His vision became sharper than ever before. Under his double pupils, every detail of Long Aotian's movements, which were originally as fast as lightning, became clearly visible.
"The Qilin Treasure Technique!"
Instead of avoiding his sharp edge, Liu Yuan went straight to meet him head-on.
The icy blue aura of the Qilin, under the glow of the dark gold's ultimate sublimation, transformed into a strange purplish-blue.
Liu Yuan took the Qilin Step, not only dodging the core slash trajectory of the scythe, but also engaging in close-quarters combat with Long Aotian in the instant they passed each other.
"Bang!"
The sound of fists clashing was dull and heavy.
The audience was astonished to discover that after activating the amplification, Liu Yuan's physical strength had increased dramatically. When facing Long Aotian, who had already awakened to Silver rank, he was able to hold his own in a head-on confrontation.
After dodging the aftershocks of the Mad God Slash, Liu Yuan twisted his body strangely in mid-air, using his doubled mental power to precisely control every muscle in his body.
He seized the moment when Long Aotian was exhausted, clenched his right fist, and the shadow of the Qilin flashed across his fist, delivering a heavy blow.
Long Aotian's metallic chest was sent flying by this punch, leaving a deep fist mark clearly visible on the hard skin of his chest armor.
"This is impossible!" one of the disciples couldn't help but scream.
Liu Yuan did not give the other party a chance to breathe.
Taking advantage of the moment when Long Aotian was still unsteady after flying backwards, his left double pupil suddenly contracted, and pale golden light patterns gathered wildly within the pupil.
"Psychic Ray!"
This time, the mental ray was no longer dark red, but transformed into a pure crimson gold.
Because of the doubled mental strength, the two rays penetrated the silvery-white defensive light membrane the moment they hit Long Aotian.
Long Aotian groaned, feeling as if his brain had been hit hard by a heavy hammer. His body swayed in mid-air, and he staggered back seven or eight steps before finally regaining his balance.
His gaze became more serious than ever before, and his eyes were filled with disbelief as he looked at Liu Yuan.
"It's improved so much? Not only his strength, but even his mental penetration has reached this level." Long Aotian muttered to himself.
Meanwhile, the other disciples in the audience went from initial shock to frenzied shouts.
"Senior Brother Liu Yuan! So strong!"
"A Soul Master overwhelming a Soul King, and that Soul King was a Silver-level Soul Master who had awakened for the second time. Is this even human?"
On the arena, the battle reached its climax.
Liu Yuan held nothing back, pushing the amplification to its absolute limit.
His figure transformed into countless dark golden afterimages in the arena, each move and stance carrying overwhelming power.
Although Long Aotian fought back desperately, and squeezed the power of his Silver Awakening to its limit, his defenses began to crumble inch by inch in the face of Liu Yuan, whose power had been doubled in every aspect.
Liu Yuan's relentless attacks gradually made Long Aotian feel powerless.
In the end, Liu Yuan dodged Long Aotian's full-force kick with a precise prediction, then clasped his hands together, and a massive surge of spiritual energy exploded in his palms.
"boom!"
Long Aotian's burly body could no longer maintain its balance and was directly pushed dozens of meters by this enormous force, falling heavily off the stage.
The entire room fell silent.
The outcome was decided, and all sounds seemed to disappear at that moment.
Wang Yanfeng, Gu Tong, Chen Lu, and the others froze completely.
Even though they knew Liu Yuan was outstanding, they never expected that, with Long Aotian possessing absolute trump cards, Liu Yuan would still win, and win so decisively.
Vina stood below the stage, her beautiful eyes filled with intense adoration and pride.
She pursed her lips tightly, only one thought in her mind: "He truly is the man I've chosen..."
On the high platform, Elder Chen also put aside his previous doubts. He looked at Liu Yuan on the platform, sighed deeply, and said with admiration, "The sect leader's vision is indeed remarkable. This child, Liu Yuan, is truly a prodigy."
Poison Undying laughed loudly, his laughter filled with unprecedented pride: "Hahahaha! My disciple, of course I know him."
"Although Ao Tian is excellent, Liu Yuan's double pupils are the true king among physical martial souls!"
Soon, Long Aotian climbed up from the dust under the arena.
He did not become angry or ashamed because of his failure; instead, he showed the magnanimity that is characteristic of the Body Sect.
He stepped onto the stage and sincerely congratulated Liu Yuan: "Congratulations on your victory, Junior Brother Liu Yuan. I am completely convinced of my defeat in this battle."
Then, looking at Liu Yuan's calm expression, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I originally thought that breaking through level 50 and awakening the Silver Realm would be enough to get back at you, but I didn't expect that I still couldn't beat you."
"If you complete the second awakening of your original martial soul in the future, then I'm afraid I really won't be able to catch up with you anymore."
Liu Yuan withdrew from his state of extreme sublimation, and the terrifying aura around him slowly dissipated.
He smiled faintly and replied gently, "Senior brother, please don't say that. The path of cultivation is long. This is just a friendly exchange."
"There's plenty of time ahead. Senior brother is exceptionally talented. Who knows, he might suddenly have another major epiphany one day and surpass me?"
Long Aotian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter again, his mood becoming unusually open-minded: "That's right! Hahahaha! I never thought that I, as the senior brother, would be taught a lesson by my junior brother."
Liu Yuan nodded, then said with a serious expression, "However, Senior Brother Aotian, during the sparring just now, I truly felt the power of a second awakened martial soul. That qualitative change in basic stats makes me yearn for it."
"So, I'd like to ask you privately for some specific insights about the second awakening of a martial soul and the instantaneous state of feeling. I wonder if you would be willing, senior brother?"
Long Aotian waved his hand magnanimously and agreed immediately: "Of course! We are fellow disciples, what's there to hide about this?"
"Come on, I'll take you to my training room right now and tell you all the insights I gained from that bloodline awakening. I hope it will help you take that step soon!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the two walked side by side toward the training room on the back mountain, leaving the entire sect with a legendary silhouette.
