Douluo: Huo Yuhao of the clone style

Chapter 399 Black Flash
Hanamichi is a cursed spirit born from humanity's negative emotions towards the forest.

Its techniques involve creating and manipulating plants.

The jet-black left arm, wrapped in cloth, possesses the ability to absorb plant life and convert it into magical power.

Therefore, she usually keeps this arm closed.

It will only be considered for use when facing a sufficiently powerful enemy.

But now, even if it were put into use, it would probably be meaningless, right?
Hua Yu looked up at the figure in the sky.

Like a divine mirror reflecting the sun, it hangs high in the sky, casting its radiance that makes the entire sky appear golden and magnificent.

The goddess below stood in mid-air, and the brilliant golden light falling on her did not diminish her radiance but instead made her appear even more sacred.

If an ordinary person saw this, they would probably immediately regard it as their only source of emotional support.

But now all that remains for Hana is pure fear.

A mere ray of light could erase her curse.

Needless to say, her spells are powerful, and even the body itself will turn to ashes under her radiance.

If she hadn't possessed the ability to manipulate physical plants, she would be dead by now.

No, it's not my own ability.

Hanami infused the technique into the earth beneath her feet, and the plant's thick roots instantly burst forth from the soil, heading straight for Amaterasu above.

One of the sun fish revolving around Amaterasu emitted a radiant light, enveloping the plants below, including the flowers.

The plant roots, which resembled tentacles, were instantly ignited, and the spells that activated them were erased.

The ever-flowing root system was thus suspended in mid-air, turning into charred remains.

Hua Yu hid behind a barrier of dense vegetation, thus avoiding being vaporized along with the rest of the plant.

"really."

She didn't seem to have much intention of attacking proactively. Was she worried about something? Or was it because of someone's orders?

Hanami looked at Sato Makoto to the side.

At this moment, he was boxing with Xia Youjie.

Is it because you're worried that the released cursed spirit will be evaporated by the radiance of the heavens, so you're looking for an opportunity to kill it in one fell swoop?

This was the only reason Hua Yu could think of.

However, what she didn't know was that Lu Suo was currently focused entirely on the battle with Sato, and had no other thoughts on the matter.

Time goes back a few minutes.

Tsukuyomi begins their battle by swatting away the Floating Water with a fan.

Sato Shin then swung his fist, channeling his magical power, and slammed it into Ryosaku's head.

"This power is truly wonderful; you have a very good understanding of physical techniques."

Ryosaku reached out and easily caught Sato Makoto's fist.

Xia Youjie's physical attributes are all exceptionally good, and even his hand-to-hand combat skills are top-notch.

Lu Suo, an ancient monster who has lived for over a thousand years, is able to bring this body to its limit.

Sato Makoto's punches did look fierce, but for him, they still lacked a certain strength.

"After all, you pointed out the flaws before, so naturally we have to try our best to make up for them."

Sato Makoto didn't care that his punch was blocked, and swung his other fist at Ryosaku.

"I'm glad you listened to my opinion."

Lu Su reached out to block again, and grabbed Sato's fist and pulled him with all his might.

Sato Makoto was thrown forward by the force of the fall.

"However, physical skills are something that are difficult to master without years of practice."

Rōsō's other hand was positioned precisely in the path that Satō Makoto's head was about to take.

The immense magical power applied to this hand, if it were to hit, would be difficult for even Hua Yu's physical strength to withstand.

Sato Shin, who is not even as good as Hanamichi, would be lying down on the spot if he took this move.

'So, can you overcome this move?'

Lu Suo longed for and anticipated that Sato Makoto would show him more.

of course can.

Sato Shin bent down to lower his height while stomping his feet hard on the ground.

The concrete ground shattered, allowing Sato to unleash his maximum speed in an instant.

He simply rushed into Lu Suo's arms.

Then, the curse power resonated with the body, simultaneously striking Lu Suo's abdomen.

bump--

The instant it struck, Sato Makoto's curse power emitted a black glow, and space itself seemed to distort.

Lu Suo was sent flying backward by the attack and crashed through the building behind him.

Sato Makoto did not immediately give chase, but stopped to sense the changes in his body.

That attack just now was a specialty of the Striker class: Black Flash.

When the physical body and magical power strike the target in perfect synchronization, they resonate with each other.

At this time, the curse power turns black, and its power is 2.5 times that of a normal attack.

However, compared to its increased power, Black Flash's greatest strength lies in its ability to assist the user in their training.

Black Flash allows users to quickly understand their own magical power, adjust their overall state, and even refine their spells.

In the realm of spellcasting, there is a concept called spell meltdown.

Specifically, after casting a domain, due to the extensive use of spells, one is unable to use spells again for a short period after the domain ends.

It's like a blown fuse.

Black Flash can quickly end this phase of spell meltdown.

With multiple functions including output, support, and cultivation, it is truly the number one divine skill of the Curse Return.

At this moment, Sato Makoto could clearly feel the effects of the black flash.

The power of incantation can operate according to one's will without deliberate manipulation, and its essence is directly revealed to oneself.

Previously incomprehensible reversal techniques were now easily mastered.

This ability is useless to Sato Makoto. Its only significance is that it represents his understanding of cursed power has reached a world-class level.

The opposite of curse power, the power of blessing, also became clear to Sato Makoto.

This power originally originated from the power of incantation, and it has a very high degree of similarity in composition, formation, and characteristics.

Once you understand the power of incantation, understanding its power of blessing becomes a hundred times easier.

Following the power of the incantation upwards leads to its source: spiritual power.

The gains weren't much compared to the power of the spell, but the proficiency increased significantly.

Besides the changes in power, Sato Makoto could also sense the magic formulas on his body.

It is not a simple technique for creating shikigami, but rather a fragment representing creation that has mutated under the influence of many factors.

Even though those were just fragments, the effect was still beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

He could sense that the many shikigami he had created were being perfected.

They did not directly transform into living beings, but they are gradually moving away from the ranks of ordinary shikigami.

At the same time, the power of creation merges into the power of incantation and blessing, and then integrates into the blood and spirit, gradually adjusting one's physical body.

They are constantly exploring the many possibilities that Brother Gua has etched onto his body.

"It's absolutely wonderful."

It wasn't Sato Makoto who spoke, but Ryosaku.

He stumbled out from the rubble and stood before Sato Makoto once again.

At this moment, his robe tore, revealing his muscular upper body.

Sato Shin's Black Flash left a clear fist mark on his abdomen.

But the fist mark is rapidly dissipating.

Healing the body with the positive energy generated by the reversal technique is something that Rōsō did in the original work.

"To think that he could grasp the essence of physical techniques so quickly is beyond my imagination."

Lu Suo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He looked at Sato with a hint of infatuation in his eyes.

"I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

Sato Makoto thought it would take several more punches, but he didn't expect to succeed on the third punch.

The protagonist's fate and destiny are truly terrifying.

"So that's what they call talent?"

Lu Suo's expression was somewhat ferocious.

There is boundless joy at Sato Makoto's growth, but also the anxieties of having to face another Gojo Satoru, and a sense of helplessness at the impermanence of life...

With so many insights piled up, even Sato Makoto couldn't figure out what he meant.

"I also think this is my talent."

Sato Shin nodded in agreement.

If I can get ahead by cheating, why can't I be considered exceptionally talented?
"You're really confident. Let me see just how far your talent can go."

Lu Su let out an excited roar and rushed straight towards Sato Makoto.

He arrived in front of Sato Makoto almost in the blink of an eye.

With his left hand clenched into a palm, he struck towards Sato Makoto's face, while his right hand clenched into a fist, poised to strike, aiming at the location below Sato Makoto's navel where the cursed power was generated.

Lu Suo's attack was clearly aimed at killing.

Sato Shin realized this, but he felt no panic at all.

After unleashing the Black Flash, his condition was completely different.

Sato Shin tilted his head to dodge Ryosaku's palm strike.

Lu Suo was not surprised at all. He simply continued to swing his left hand to the left, and moved his body to deliver his right fist.

Then, Sato Shin grabbed his right wrist.

Sato Shin spun around following the force of the Rokuro, his fist aimed straight for the Rokuro's chest.

Lu Su stomped his foot hard, turned around to dodge the fist, and slightly lowered his right shoulder, then charged at Sato Makoto with all his might.

Sato Shin could only loosen his grip on the rope and take a step forward to try and attack him from behind.

But Lu Suo easily dodged, allowing the two to pass each other.

Before they had even stopped moving, they turned around almost simultaneously, their eyes locked on each other.

After a few steps to recover, he lunged at the other party again.

This time, both sides swung their fists almost simultaneously.

bump--

The two sides' magical powers surged forth, like pitch-black lightning.

Both sides unleashed their black flashes simultaneously.

The impact of their fists caused both men to take a half step back, and their hands twisted to varying degrees.

However, one of them possesses a reversal technique, while the other has a blessing power.

They wouldn't care about such injuries at all.

The twisted hand began to heal quickly, but before it was fully healed, the two lunged at each other again and threw punches.

Perhaps due to the hand injury affecting their performance, neither of them managed to land a Black Flash this time.

However, even an ordinary punch still possesses considerable power when enhanced by magical energy.

Their injuries, which were almost healed, deteriorated again.

So they didn't hesitate to use their other hand to launch the attack.

bump--

The second time, Black Flash was used simultaneously.

Sato Shin hit Ryosaku's injured arm, and Ryosaku, grazing his arm, struck Sato Shin's shoulder.

The massive impact sent the two flying backward.

Just as they stood up to continue, a dazzling light fell from the sky and pierced through the juvenile academy not far away.
