Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Young Gilas, Sandstorm King!

Chapter 63 Fire-type 'Heart of Lava'... Ice-type 'Eternal Profound Ice Marrow'

Lin Xia pointed to a specially made dummy in the center of the arena, clad in heavy armor made of refined iron mixed with a small amount of tungsten steel.

This dummy was specially made by Lou Gao to test the power of firearms; it has extremely strong defensive capabilities.

"Yoji!"

Young Gilas nodded excitedly, his scarlet eyes locking onto his target.

Its small body crouched slightly, and a fierce aura began to gather.

"it is good!"

Lin Xia's eyes were sharp.

"Use—Lightning Fist!"

"Yo-ji!!!"

The moment the command was given, Younggiras let out a short and powerful battle cry!

Its right claw, covered in rocky armor, clenched tightly, and blinding purple arcs of electricity erupted like a swarm of wildly dancing snakes, coiling around it and emitting a heart-stopping crackling sound!
The violent lightning energy ionized the surrounding air, filling the air with a faint smell of burning.

The next moment, Young Gilas's short hind legs burst forth with astonishing power, and its body transformed into a gray afterimage, charging towards the dummy with an unstoppable momentum!
Its speed far exceeded its usual running speed, as if the lightning not only gave it attack power but also stimulated its explosive power!

When it was still more than a meter away from the dummy, Young Gilas suddenly swung out its right claw, which was wrapped in purple lightning!
boom--! ! !
A deep, resounding bang, like a heavy hammer striking a drum, exploded across the training ground!

Lin Xia clearly saw that the chest of the dummy, which was covered in thick armor, was instantly dented into a clear small fist mark the moment Young Gilas's small fist touched it. The armor, which was a mixture of refined iron and tungsten steel and strong enough to withstand the full force of a Great Soul Master, was like butter pressed on a red-hot iron!
Hard metal twists and deforms under the violent heat and impact of lightning!
Sizzle——!!!
The ear-piercing sound of electricity continued to ring out, and the hit area instantly turned black, even wisps of smoke rising from it!
A pungent smell of metal melting instantly filled the air.

The dummy's massive body was thrown off the ground by this immense force, flying backward as if it had been hit by a charging rhinoceros. With a loud crash, it slammed heavily against the reinforced wall more than ten meters away, shaking the entire training ground!
The charred fist mark on the gleaming silver armor was a shocking sight!
Lin Xia's pupils contracted as she watched this scene, and then she burst into uncontrollable ecstasy!
"It's done! It's really done!"

Lin Xia clenched her fists excitedly.

"The destructive power of a peak Great Soul Master, or even a beginner-level Soul Venerable! The power of this lightning fist... is astonishing!"

The previous speculation has been completely confirmed!

Devouring the purple lightning iron ore not only strengthened their bodies, but also actually granted them the ability to control lightning!
This completely overturned Lin Xia's understanding of martial souls and soul skills!
Witnessing Young Gilas's domineering punch firsthand, Lin Xia's blood was ignited.

Looking at his fist, which still retained a faint arc of electricity, a strong impulse surged up.

"I'll try it too!"

Lin Xia took a deep breath and mobilized the condensed soul power at the peak of level eighteen within her body.

The soul power flowed along the peculiar path it had followed when comprehending the Thunder Fist, rapidly surging towards its right arm and converging at the fist's tip.

It's sizzling!It's sizzling!
A fainter, but still clearly visible, purple arc of electricity began to leap and coil around Lin Xia's fist.

Although it lacked the overwhelming ferocity of Young Gilas, it still possessed a formidable aura, with a faint static electricity permeating the air.

Lin Xia locked his gaze on another dummy that was also wearing armor, let out a low shout, and pushed off with his feet, his body shooting forward!

Although its speed is not as terrifying as Young Gilas, it is still far beyond that of ordinary Soul Masters!
"drink!"

A fist crackling with purple electricity slammed into the dummy's chest armor! Thud!
With a muffled thud, the dummy shook violently. Although it wasn't knocked away, its breastplate was dented inward by about an inch!

More importantly, the iron armor also showed obvious char marks on the hit area, with the edges even slightly reddish, as if it had been scorched by high temperature!
"call……"

Lin Xia withdrew his fist, looked at the dents and charred marks on the dummy armor, felt the lingering tingling sensation in his fist and realized that only a small amount of soul power had been consumed in his body, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Although its power was far inferior to that of Young Giras, the destructive force of this punch far exceeded the limits that an ordinary level 18 Soul Master could achieve!

Both the physical impact and the additional lightning burning damage are enough to give him an overwhelming advantage among Soul Masters of the same level!
This lightning fist became a powerful trump card for him!

Most importantly, it consumes little soul power, has no cooldown, and can be used as a basic attack.

"Absorbing elemental ores...can really grant the corresponding elemental power!"

Lin Xia looked at his fist, which was still crackling with faint arcs of electricity, and his eyes became incredibly intense.

Young Gilas also came over and rubbed its little head against Lin Xia's leg, its big scarlet eyes full of smugness, as if to say, "Master, look how awesome I am!"

"Amazing, little guy, you're amazing!"

Lin Xia smiled and rubbed its head, but the thoughts in her mind grew wildly like weeds.

He tasted the power of the Thunder Fist.

Having absorbed the purple lightning iron ore, it gained lightning-attribute attack abilities, so...

Lin Xia's gaze seemed to pierce through the walls of the training ground, casting it into the unknown distance, as she murmured to herself.

"The Lightning Fist is already here... its power is indeed overwhelming. But lightning is ultimately just one element."

Lin Xia's mind flashed to Tyranitar, which Larvitar might evolve into in the future, and its terrifying power to control the earth and dark types. She also thought about the special nature of her own martial soul.

"If we could find a ore containing the ultimate fire element... then the power of the 'Flame Fist' would probably be even more terrifying!"

"The scorching heat and explosive impact... it will be an invincible weapon against both plant-type martial souls and ice-attribute soul masters!"

Lin Xia's thoughts drifted in another direction.

"And then there's ice... the power of extreme cold frost, freezing, slowing, or even directly encasing opponents! 'Frozen Fist'... if one could master it, combined with Lightning Fist, ice and lightning intertwined, the control and lethality would be incredible..."

The more Lin Xia thought about it, the more her heart burned with passion.

Lin Xia looked down at the baby Giras at her feet. The little guy seemed to sense his master's desire, and his scarlet eyes gleamed with anticipation for the unknown "deliciousness".

"The 'Heart of Lava' of the fire element... the 'Eternal Ice Marrow' of the ice element... these are legendary top-tier ores!"

Lin Xia licked her slightly dry lips, her eyes burning with intense curiosity and desire.

"It seems... it's time to have a serious talk with the teacher and plan our next 'foraging' route."

In the blacksmiths' guild's warehouse, the mountains of ordinary ores seemed utterly tasteless to him at that moment.

What Lin Xia desires now is a true attribute treasure that can ignite flames and freeze everything!
