Chapter 179 Fusion Technique Clashes Head-on with a Soul Sage!
Dai Huabin took the initiative to charge forward, which visibly surprised Wu Ming in the field.
Is this kid crazy?
A four-ring Soul Sect fighting a seven-ring Soul Sage, instead of keeping his distance and maneuvering, actually chose to confront her head-on?
Wu Ming's mind raced, and she instantly saw through Dai Huabin's plan. This junior wanted to use the attribute suppression of Extreme Ice to drag the battle into the close-quarters combat rhythm that he was most proficient in.
With the Golden Crow Fire Wings, Wu Ming could easily take to the air and use a kite-flying tactic to wear down Dai Huabin.
But she is the dignified "Golden Crow Saintess" of the Inner Academy, a level seventy-two Soul Sage! If she has to resort to guerrilla tactics to fight a junior of level forty-eight, she can't afford to lose face like that.
"Want to fight in close combat? Fine, you can have your way!"
Wu Ming roared, and her second, third, and fifth spirit rings burst forth with dazzling light one after another.
"Second Soul Skill, Golden Crow True Fire!"
"Third Soul Skill, Golden Crow Fire Wings!"
"Fifth Soul Skill, Golden Crow True Fire Bath!"
The crimson flames roared up, and Wu Ming was enveloped in a thick layer of fiery robes, with a pair of wide Golden Crow wings unfurling behind her.
The terrifying high temperature forcefully created a crimson vacuum zone within Dai Huabin's frozen Domain.
With all three of her amplifying soul skills activated, Wu Ming's aura reached its peak, and she crashed head-on into the white lightning that Dai Huabin had transformed into.
Bang!
Fists and claws clashed.
Dai Huabin's hands had completely transformed into diamond-textured ice tiger claws, a new form resulting from the fusion of the Bing Di's Claw and the White Tiger's Claw.
Wu Ming's right hand was covered with Golden Crow True Fire, which condensed into a sharp fire claw.
The Extreme Ice and the Golden Crow True Fire collided violently in mid-air, unleashing a piercing shriek. A large cloud of white steam instantly billowed out.
Without any pause, the two engaged in a dazzling close-quarters battle amidst the white mist.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The dull thuds of flesh colliding rang out repeatedly. In just a few breaths, the two had already exchanged more than a dozen blows.
Ice shards and sparks flew everywhere.
Everyone watching from the sidelines held their breath.
Han Ruoruo stared in astonishment at the two figures locked in fierce combat.
"Le Xuan, Wu Ming is going all out. She's unleashing all three of her amplification soul skills, completely preparing for the Inner Academy assessment. Hua Bin is in a tough spot now."
Zhang Lexuan clasped her hands in front of her, her gaze fixed on Dai Huabin in the white mist, and softly commented:
"Wu Ming's soul power is a full twenty-four levels higher than Hua Bin's. No matter how domineering the ultimate attribute is, Hua Bin can't last long in this kind of pure power and soul power clash."
At this point, Zhang Lexuan changed the subject:
"However, I'd like to see the combat technique that Hua Bin created himself. Elder Mu praised it highly."
Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er, who was standing nearby, immediately perked up her ears.
"Senior Sister, what kind of self-created combat technique is that?"
Wang Dong'er's pinkish-blue eyes were full of curiosity.
She had always regarded Dai Huabin as her goal, and now that she heard that Dai Huabin actually had a trump card that even she didn't know about, she felt an itch in her heart like a cat scratching.
Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie also came over, their faces full of curiosity.
Zhang Lexuan glanced at Wang Dong'er and explained:
"A combat technique that completely integrates Spiritual strength, soul power, and personal beliefs. The principle is similar to Elder Mu's 'Reign Over the World,' but it takes a different approach."
"To rule the world?"
Wang Dong'er gasped.
Born into the Clear Sky Sect, she had naturally heard of the signature technique of that Limit Douluo from Shrek Academy. It was a self-created combat technique that even Title Douluos coveted!
Ma Xiaotao crossed her arms, raised her chin, and spoke with an undisguised air of boasting:
"That's right! You didn't see what happened at the Sea God Pavilion that day. What my teacher couldn't fully understand in most of his life, Hua Bin figured out in just one hour."
"An hour?" Cui Yajie exclaimed in surprise, covering her mouth.
"What's the name of this combat technique?" Xiao Xiao asked eagerly.
Ma Xiaotao grinned and uttered eight words: "Defying the heavens and slaying the gods, I alone am supreme."
Wang Dong'er stood there, repeatedly chewing on those eight words.
That's outrageous.
However, this perfectly matches Dai Huabin's always calm and unhurried demeanor, as if he doesn't care even if the sky falls.
Zhu Lu stood quietly to the side, without saying a word.
Her cool eyes were fixed on the arena, her hands clenched into fists at her sides.
She didn't care about combat skills; she only cared whether Dai Huabin would get hurt.
Meanwhile, in the center of the Soul Arena.
Dai Huabin was under unprecedented pressure.
It was another straightforward, head-on collision. Dai Huabin used the momentum to slide backward seven or eight meters, his military boots carving two deep white tracks in the frozen ground.
His hands felt slightly numb, and his chest felt a surge of blood and qi.
The difference in soul power between twenty-four levels was no joke.
If it weren't for the Eternal Frozen Domain suppressing Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire, and if it weren't for the Bing Di's Claw granting his arms near-abnormal hardness, an ordinary four-ring Soul Sect would have been charred into a crisp by Wu Ming upon first contact.
"Junior, you're quite strong!"
Wu Ming laughed loudly, shaking her slightly sore right hand. The repeated collisions with the Extreme Ice had caused some damage to her meridians from the cold.
But this only fueled her ferocity.
"Warm-up complete, get ready!"
Wu Ming's first spirit ring suddenly lit up.
"First Soul Skill, Golden Crow Fire Claw!"
The flames on her right hand instantly surged, transforming into a meter-long crimson-gold giant claw that ripped through the air with a piercing shriek, hurtling straight towards Dai Huabin's chest. Its speed was twice as fast as before!
Dai Huabin's pupils contracted slightly, and he instantly activated the Ghost Shadow Step, leaving a trail of afterimages in his wake.
Sizzle!
The Golden Crow's fiery claw grazed his shoulder, the terrifying heat burning the sleeves of his school uniform to ashes.
Dai Huabin immediately unleashed a White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, a thick white beam of light blasting towards Wu Ming's face.
Wu Ming didn't even flinch. Her Golden Crow Fiery Wings suddenly closed, directly scattering the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave. Immediately afterward, her fourth spirit ring shone brightly.
"Fourth Soul Skill, Golden Crow True Fire Ring!"
With a flick of her fingertips, Wu Ming unleashed a dozen ruby-like orbs of light that swelled in the wind, transforming into fiery meteors with long trails of flame, hurtling towards Dai Huabin from all directions.
These fireballs were not only extremely fast, but they also had a locking effect.
There's no way to avoid them!
Dai Huabin immediately changed tactics.
"Ice Emperor's Protection!"
A thick, clear, icy armor instantly covered his entire body.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions resounded within the arena, and a sea of crimson-gold flames instantly engulfed Dai Huabin's figure. The powerful shockwave, mixed with intense heat, evaporated a large area of frost from the ground.
"Hua Bin!" Zhu Lu exclaimed in surprise, instinctively rushing forward.
Zhang Lexuan reacted quickly and grabbed Zhu Lu's shoulder. "Don't worry, he's fine."
Amidst the sea of fire, a platinum-gold figure suddenly soared into the sky.
Dai Huabin's Ice Emperor's Protection was covered in cracks, but it did not shatter. He was in mid-air, and his fourth spirit ring shone brightly with dark light.
Ice Soul White Tiger's fourth soul skill was superimposed on the right arm bone soul skill!
"Fusion Technique: Extreme Ice Skybreaker!"
Dai Huabin's claws suddenly tore open in front of him, and a huge cross-shaped ice-blue slash cleaved through the sea of fire, carrying a terrifying chill that could freeze everything, and slashed down directly at Wu Ming below.
Wu Ming looked up at the ice-blue slash that exuded an extremely dangerous aura and raised an eyebrow. This attack's intensity had definitely reached the Soul Emperor level!
"Good timing!"
Wu Ming shouted, raising her hands to the sky, and the Golden Crow flames gathered wildly.
"Sixth Soul Skill, Golden Crow Blazing Sun Strike!"
The next moment, the frantically gathered Golden Crow True Fire converged into a single point, shooting out a thick golden pillar of fire with extremely strong penetrating power, colliding with the cross-shaped ice-blue slash of the Extreme Ice Skybreaker.
The ultimate collision of ice and fire caused the entire Soul Arena to tremble violently.
Click!
The cross-shaped slash shattered, and the pillar of Golden Crow True Fire exploded as well.
Dai Huabin landed lightly on the ground, slightly out of breath.
The soul power within his body was being consumed extremely quickly.
If this continued, he would be completely drained in five minutes, let alone ten. Wu Ming's combat experience was too rich; she didn't give him any chance to catch his breath.
We can't keep relying on soul power like this.
