Douluo: Starting from the Nine-Curved Vine Dragon

Chapter 388 Thunder Storm
Poseidon's realm was already at the peak of level ninety-nine. If it weren't for the fact that she had reached this level by relying on the blessings of the sea god and thus could not become a god, she would have been fully qualified to inherit the godhood with such a foundation and such a realm.

Now, with the power of the ocean drawn by the Sea God Martial Soul, Poseidon's aura is almost divine.

It can be infinitely close to a god, but its original meaning is that it is not a god, it has no divine power, and it is not even a pseudo-god who has divine power but no divine position.

Perhaps because her battle with Poison Emperor in the previous Sea God City left a deep impression on Poseidon, she did not activate her Martial Soul True Body right away when fighting against the new Emperor of Heaven Dou. Even if she would use her Martial Soul True Body later, she would not choose to summon the Sea God's divine sense from her bloodline with her Sea God True Body.

After doing all this, Poseidon was just about to make his move, but before his spirit rings could even be activated, he froze on the spot for a moment.

The power of spacetime erupted within the Nine-Bend Vine Dragon.

Time stopped, freezing Poseidon for a moment; space teleported, and Lin Rong appeared behind Poseidon in an instant.

Fourth Soul Skill: Dragon's Roar Thunder Realm!
Ten Thousand Year Thunderous Hell Vine Soul Bone Technique: Thunder Prison - Heavenly Punishment Second Stage - Thunder Dragon True Form!
Within the endless barrier of thunder, the thunder dragon was born, bathed in azure-purple lightning.

The moment the Thunder Dragon materialized, Poseidon also broke free from the time-stopping control.

The dragon's roar resounded through the sky, swift as thunder and fast as the wind. Its speed was so great that Poseidon had no time to unleash any soul skills and could only rely on pure soul power to defend against the attack.

boom!
A gap was smashed in the thunder barrier, and a figure fell rapidly. Before the people on the ground could see clearly, the moat in front of Poseidon City was hit as if by something thrown from a high altitude, and huge waves tens of meters high were stirred up.

"The fourth spirit ring is too young, this barrier isn't strong enough!"

Lin Rong stared at the gap in the arena's barrier and couldn't help but shake his head.

He didn't expect his move to kill Poseidon instantly, but the fact that Poseidon was knocked off the battlefield in one move was a huge blow to the morale of the Poseidon Empire.

In contrast, the 300,000-strong army of the Heavenly Dou Empire was in high spirits, and Lin Rong's image in their hearts grew ever more majestic.

wow~
Water splashed everywhere as Poseidon burst out from the riverbed, rising into the sky and causing the nearby ocean currents to reverse and hang in the air. Behind her, the illusory trident in the hand of the Sea God Martial Soul solidified several times and separated from the Sea God Martial Soul's hand, appearing in Poseidon's hand.

The brand-new robe fluttered in the wind; it wasn't the same one from before.

As for where that thing went? Well, it was naturally turned into charcoal by the Thunder Dragon's true form.

"No matter how strong she is, she is still a woman after all."

Lin Rong looked down, one hand behind his back and the other raised.

A cyan whirlwind gathered, and a cyan jade bead appeared below Lin Rong's palm. At the same time, the Return Bottle, which was suspended on the battlefield, responded to the summons and transformed into a stream of light, instantly appearing at a position parallel to the eye of the storm.

Wind! Water!
Twenty percent of Lin Rong's soul power instantly disappeared, being refined and transformed into wind-attribute divine power and water-attribute divine power, which were then injected into the corresponding divine artifacts.

"The storm is coming, but something seems to be missing."

"Oh, it's thunder!"

Another ten percent of the soul power disappeared, condensing into lightning-attribute divine power and being injected into Thor's Hammer.

In an instant, the three divine artifacts formed a triangle around Lin Rong.

Boom~
Thunder roared, and a bolt of deep purple lightning suddenly appeared in the clear blue sky, tearing through the azure sky above Poseidon City.

Behind Poseidon, the ocean currents drawn by the Sea God Martial Soul were summoned by the artifact Return Bottle, broke free from Poseidon's control, and instead became Lin Rong's aid.

“Controlling other people’s divine artifacts? How is that possible!” Poseidon’s worldview was once again utterly shocked. How could she know that Lin Rong had refined all the divine artifacts inherited by the gods under his command?

Therefore, before these inheritors of the divine positions could inherit the divine status, Lin Rong, who had completely refined these inherited divine artifacts, was the true master of the artifacts.

A storm was brewing, and a tornado formed by the convergence of the three elements of wind, thunder, and water trapped Poseidon within it.

The soul power within Lin Rong's body also decreased rapidly as the move was being prepared.

The previous 30% of his soul power was merely a trigger to activate the artifact; to complete this move, he still needed to continue consuming the soul power within his body.

"This soul power consumption is really high. Fortunately, there is a lot of vegetation around Poseidon City, so I can use the Life Dragon Soul to replenish my soul power."

"But why didn't Poseidon choose to rush out before the storm and water tornado fully formed? What does that mean?"

"Seeking death? Or..."

……

Ground battlefield.

With the enhancement of Ma Hongjun's third soul skill, Heavenly Wind Mystic Sound, the 300,000-strong army of the Heaven Dou Empire experienced a 33% increase in all attributes. A mysterious power enveloped all of them, keeping their fighting spirit high.

Moreover, with the outbreak of war, the remaining two effects of the war divine skill, Heavenly Phoenix Mystic Sound, gradually became apparent.

As soldiers continued to be wounded, a faint healing power constantly worked to heal their injuries.

In the Soul Master battlefield, if the enemy uses a wide-range control Soul Skill, Ma Hongjun, who is constantly monitoring the battlefield, will immediately re-release the Soul Skill Heavenly Phoenix Mystic Sound. He will use the effect of instantly removing the control effect of the Soul Skill to render the enemy's wide-range control Soul Skill ineffective.

If it's a battlefield for high-level Soul Masters above the Soul Saint level, Ma Hongjun will refresh the control-removing effect of Tianfeng Xuanyin as needed.

"With such superb battlefield skills, it's no wonder His Majesty appointed him as the Grand Marshal of the Empire's army."

Dugu Bo and Chen Xin were both startled.

Although they knew that Ma Hongjun was on their side and that he was a successor of a god, they had no idea that he possessed a soul skill that could be described as a divine skill on the battlefield.

After only a moment of surprise, they came to their senses and went to complete their mission: to restrain the Seven Holy Pillar Guardians of the Sea God.

The war had just broken out, and Tian Dou had not brought many Soul Masters with him on this trip.

Therefore, when facing the group of high-level Soul Masters from Seagod Island, Tian Dou was at a significant disadvantage in terms of numbers.

"So many Soul Saints, no, so many military merits!"

Yan Mo's eyes gleamed with a rare golden light, looking like he was blinded by greed.

In his eyes, the Soul Masters above the Soul Saint level in the Sea God Empire were practically walking military merits, like living, super-desirable commodities, making him want to taste them all.

Shui Bing'er, on the other hand, was much calmer, silently counting all the eligible targets for military merit in her mind.

"Soul Saints, ninety-four; Soul Douluos, thirteen; Ordinary Title Douluos, none; Guardian Douluos of the Seven Sacred Pillars of the Sea God, six; Total military merits: approximately 3.75 100,000-year-old Soul Bones."
