Dai Tianling gave a deep frown. Frankly, he was not pleased with the Holy Spirit Douluo’s departure. How many people were there with Tang Wulin? Even with the presence of this Limit Douluo, how could they possibly stall such a massive group of people in the Federal Fleet?
In his view, Her Excellency was making an excuse to distance herself from this land of conflict.
Although he was displeased, he did not reveal his true feelings. After all, she had just traveled a long distance to bring him a message of the great calamity that was going to befall them which they were completely unaware of.
“Alright. Please take care of yourself, Your Excellency. Also, please help me send my regards to the Tang Sect Master. We’re fortunate to receive help from the Tang Sect this time. If we can get over this danger, I’ll certainly pay him a visit and apologize to him personally.”
If ever there was a bottle of regret pills in this world, he would gulp down a bottle straightaway. If it had not been his impulsive act to organize the Battle of Five Gods, he would have concluded the transaction with the Tang Sect earlier.
It was precisely his act which delayed the entire process which he was running a little short on time now.
Yet, now was not the time to regret over his choice. The large army force was bearing down upon the empire’s border, so he would need to figure out a way to counter this problem as soon as possible.
“Reporting to Your Majesty!” Meanwhile, an attendant rushed into the room from the outside.
“What is it?” asked Dai Tianling anxiously. He was acting like someone who was frightened.
“There’s an emergency announcement from our weather bureau. Large thunderclouds have suddenly shown up over the west sea. The storm appeared out of nowhere. Moreover, the storm is of the highest scale which is unprecedented for the past hundred years. One can see it distinctly on the shores of the west sea. However, the storm doesn’t seem to be heading toward the continent. It seems to be distancing itself away from us gradually. I’m reporting this due to the sudden occurrence of the incident, Your Majesty.”
“The west sea?” asked Dai Tianling and Yali in unison.
The Federal Fleet was coming from the direction of the west sea!
Both of them stood staring at each other. Yali was shocked and Dai Tianling was even more so.
What was the significance of an unprecedented great storm which suddenly occurred on the west sea? Chances were that the Federal Fleet could possibly have been affected by the storm. Regardless of the severity of the storm’s impact, it would at least buy more time for the Star Luo Empire.
Dai Tianling’s gaze changed as he looked at Yali. He was still under the assumption that she was making an excuse a moment earlier. However, he had a completely different view altogether at present.
His first thought was that there was someone exceedingly powerful among the Tang Sect’s entourage who could even control natural phenomena. Were they the ones stalling the Federal Fleet?
“Your Excellency, Dai Tianling is grateful to you.” He bowed deeply toward the Holy Spirit Douluo in salutation. Whether it was the Tang Sect’s doing or not, he would still have to show his gratitude as he was duty-bound. It would not be a loss as his act of gratitude would make a good impression on this Limit Douluo.
“It’s not the time to be courteous. Please hasten your preparations, Your Majesty. I’m going back immediately to appraise the situation.” The Holy Spirit Douluo swayed her body once and transformed into a stream of milky-white radiance before vanishing without a trace.
Dai Tianling might not be aware but not her. She knew that there was no one among the Tang Sect’s entourage who would be as capable as imagined by Dai Tianling.
On the other hand, they had no idea of the terrifying scale of the storm without having witnessed it with their own eyes. Otherwise, they would be certain to change their minds.
The storm which was wreaking havoc seemed endless. The bright purple radiance that surrounded Tang Wulin and Xie Xie had turned purple-gold in the sky.
Even Xie Xie felt the terrifying aura of the purple-gold radiance. The Bluesilver Emperor vines arose from Tang Wulin’s body and linked together with the purple-gold radiance. Soon, the Bluesilver Emperor vines turned purple-gold and emitted a layer of blue-gold radiance which infused into the purple-gold Thunderclap Nether Vine to stabilize itself.
After continuous ingestion, the Thunderclap Nether Vine was close to saturation, but it kept on absorbing voraciously.
It was the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s characteristic discharge of endless lightnings and ceaseless absorption.
Tang Wulin felt numb all over his body at present. The lightning power unleashed by the Thunderclap Nether Vine was truly terrifying. It was filled with a destructive aura, but it was also exceedingly pure. He was utilizing the lightning power to cleanse and remove any impurities from his body. At the same time, he also stabilized the realm which he had managed to breakthrough within a short period of time.
He was using the lightning to train and temper his body continuously.
If not for the enhancement provided by his Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique, Tang Wulin would not have dared use the lightning to temper his body. Even a person with Xie Xie’s cultivation base would end up as ash if he were to guide the pure lightning into his body.
Gradually, a faint purple-gold layer appeared inside Tang Wulin’s body following the electric stimulation. The Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique combined gradually with the lightning to give Tang Wulin an aura of invincibility.
The main attribute of the Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique was to initiate the innate energy in the human body to enhance itself so as to exceed its own limitations.
Back in the beginning, the Body Sect was one of the most powerful sects on the continent because almost all the powerhouses who were capable of cultivating the Innate Secret Technique successfully would become Limit Douluos. In addition, they were also the powerhouses with the most endurance and were skilled in long drawn-out battles.
The Innate Secret Technique enabled the soul master to be one internally and externally so that the soul master could withstand the lashing of the cultivation base which exceeded his or her capability.
Tang Wulin’s urgent breakthrough to Title Douluo rank was followed by the refinement of the pure lightning, and his realm was stabilized soon. Meanwhile, he guided his fourth spirit soul, the Thunderclap Nether Vine to begin fusing with him.
Despite the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s unrest due to the nourishment from the lightning, it hardly resisted the process.
No one would be a more suitable candidate than him. Since it was already a spirit soul, it would certainly die if it removed itself from Tang Wulin. Besides, it would even stand a chance of elevating to a higher rank by staying with Tang Wulin.
The Nature Child’s aura on Tang Wulin’s body was the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s greatest safeguard. At the same time, Tang Wulin’s Bluesilver Emperor was also a top plant-type martial soul which further ensured its compatibility with Tang Wulin.
Everything seemed natural and in good order for the fusion.
The Bluesilver Emperor made the Thunderclap Nether Vine firm and tenacious while the Thunderclap Nether Vine made the Bluesilver Emperor frenzied. The effect of Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon King Bloodline on the Thunderclap Nether Vine caused it to metamorphose rapidly while soaking in the lightning.
The storm remained concentrated and continued to wreak havoc with no intention of stopping at all.
Xie Xie dared not move at all as he stood over there. He watched the transformation on Tang Wulin’s body quietly. He did not have the courage to touch the purple-gold radiance in his surroundings because he could sense that the radiance contained terrifying energy. If he were not careful, he could be destroyed!
‘Big brother, oh big brother. Your rapid progress has wiped out all the thoughts we have of ever catching up to you!’
‘The storm wind is terrifying. It is simply horrendous to be caught in this terrible thunderclap hell.’
‘Everything is truly terrifying. I bet even a Limit Douluo can’t do this. Is he doing it by relying on just the Boundless Universe Shield?’
‘If the Boundless Universe Shield is so powerful, then why didn’t the Atlas Douluo use it when he was fighting against the Godkiller-rank fixed soul ammunition? Was it because there was no real sea around him? Is the Boundless Universe Shield only capable of exercising its power in the sea?’
A multitude of ideas popped up continuously in Xie Xie’s mind followed by his ever-changing gaze as he looked at Tang Wulin.
There was added respect in his gaze.
Following Tang Wulin’s promotion as the Tang Sect Master and Shrek Academy’s Sea God’s Pavilion Master, he had been transforming silently. He had become increasingly intelligent and overbearing at the same time.
