Douluo Continent: The True Body and Blood Soul, Starting from Blacksmithing

Facing Yu Tianheng's dragon claw, which was wrapped in dense blue-purple lightning, Lin Yu raised his golden-scaled right arm, which was wrapped in iron chains.

Yu Tianheng didn't care about the golden scales on Lin Yu's right arm at all, since his lightning power was afraid of missing its target, not of being defended by others.

Despite this, Yu Tianheng remained focused on his opponent's movements until his right claw landed.

Until his right claw fell heavily, slamming into Lin Yu's raised right arm as he was trying to defend himself.

A torrent of violent lightning power erupted forth.

To Yu Tianheng's surprise, the scene he had imagined of his opponent being stunned by the violent lightning did not occur.

The opponent's right arm twitched only briefly at the moment his Thunder Dragon Claw struck, before steadily blocking the attack.

Where is my own lightning power?!

Shouldn't he have been paralyzed by my own violent lightning power? How come he's still standing perfectly unharmed in front of me?!

Feeling the force from her right arm gradually weaken, Lin Yu slowly lowered her right arm, which had been blocking Yu Tianheng's attack, and began to examine the injury on her right arm.

On his right arm, only a few scales had exploded and shattered, and these shattered areas were caused by Yu Tianheng's attack landing on the iron chain, which crushed the scales.

"Senior Brother Tianheng, your strength is truly immense!"

Seeing that Yu Tianheng was still in a daze, Lin Yu sincerely praised him.

Still bewildered, Yu Tianheng remained oblivious to Lin Yu's question.

"Why? Why is the power of lightning useless against you?"

Yu Tianheng's tone conveyed disbelief after the collapse of his faith.

He, Yu Tianheng, is the most talented young generation of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, and also the first genius to complete partial body transformation.

His strongest strike only left a mark on the opponent's arm?

The fact that the opponent was completely unharmed made Yu Tianheng think that he had not used his soul skill!

But... the emptiness within him made him realize clearly: he had used his first soul skill! He had used his first soul skill?!

"I don't believe it! Take another one of my Thunder Dragon Claws!"

This outcome was unacceptable to Yu Tianheng.

After forcibly draining the last bit of soul power from his body, Yu Tianheng raised his lightning-wrapped right hand again and slammed it heavily onto Lin Yu's right arm.

Yu Tianheng saw this very clearly.

The moment his own violent lightning power touched Lin Yu's right arm, it spread along the iron chain wrapped around Lin Yu's right arm and onto the ground.

On the ground...?

What the hell is going on?!

"Um... I wanted to ask, why are my soul skills not working on you?"

Unable to figure out the problem, Yu Tianheng looked at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu simply shrugged at this.

"I don't know either. I've only ever seen people stick iron bars into the ground during thunderstorms, and then the lightning was diverted away by the iron bars when it was about to strike them."

"I was thinking, could I use the iron chain dragging on the ground to distract the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex's lightning?"

Although a Soul Master's attributes are derived from Soul Skills, the elements derived from Soul Power still follow some physical laws.

This is also why Lin Yu dared to accept the challenge; he had a way to deflect the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Soul Master's lightning long ago.

Once the threat of lightning is gone, Lin Yu is confident that he can outlast any Soul Master of the same level by relying on his Soul Power recovery speed.

But he didn't expect Yu Tianheng to be so arrogant, actually deciding the outcome with a single blow!

He just didn't expect that Yu Tianheng would suffer such a big blow.

However, it seems that he has won the battle with Yu Tianheng, and he can run away after handing over the battle to Xue Qinghe.

However, before Lin Yu could even look at Xue Qinghe, a girl with green eyes stepped onto the arena.

"Don't go! Our team isn't short of members!"

After leaving those words, the other person ignored Lin Yu and ran straight to Yu Tianheng's side. After a few whispered conversations, Yu Tianheng gradually regained his composure.

After regaining his composure, Yu Tianheng glanced at Lin Yu and then left the arena.

After stepping off the stage, Yu Tianheng whispered a few words to Xue Qinghe before leaving.

Everyone watched Yu Tianheng leave, and only after Yu Tianheng was gone did Dugu Yan speak arrogantly.

"Kid, you've got some talent. Want to join our team? With your performance, you could be our vice-captain right away, on equal footing with me!"

Lin Yu bypassed the topic of "joining the team" and asked about the latter.

"Why am I only a vice-captain after joining your team? Yu Tianheng should be the strongest here, right? He lost to me in our sparring match just now, didn't he?"

Dugu Yan smiled at Lin Yu's naive question.

"It's only because you're Aunt Tianheng's disciple that she's going easy on you. You don't really think that's all she's capable of, do you?"

"As for why you can only be the vice-captain? Naturally, it's because you can't get past me."

As she said this, Dugu Yan directly completed the Martial Soul Possession.

Dugu Yan's martial spirit possession effect was not as dazzling as Yu Tianheng's; she only had an extra bluish-green scale on her forehead.

Besides the greenish-blue scale, a faint bluish-red poisonous mist also appeared around her.

As if thinking of the other person's feelings, Dugu Yan chuckled sweetly.

"My martial soul is the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, the most venomous martial soul on the continent, and there is no antidote for my poison."

"You have good talent, and I don't want things to get too tense between us, so you'd better surrender and join our team as soon as possible."

Faced with Dugu Yan's threat, Lin Yu simply shrugged, silently channeling his soul power to bless the golden scales on his right arm while verbally attacking her.

"Since we're already here, it wouldn't be right not to fight. Besides, I've seen other people deal with poison before, and coincidentally, my soul skill is somewhat effective against yours. Giving up without a fight isn't my style."

Originally intending to use verbal persuasion, Dugu Yan's interest was piqued when her opponent claimed that his soul skill countered hers.

However, she did not forget the living example of Yu Tianheng, who lost because of carelessness.

Therefore, Dugu Yan would never make a bet like "If you can withstand one round of my poison, you win."

To detoxify, I'll definitely need to consume a lot of soul power. As long as I can keep going with him, I'm sure I can manage.

We'll teach him a lesson later.

"Since you claim that your soul skill is effective against my poison, then let's see what happens."

"First Soul Skill, Azure Phosphorus Red Poison."

Dugu Yan immediately activated her first soul skill.

A red mist began to spread rapidly from Dugu Yan toward Lin Yu.

Lin Yu's figure was soon shrouded in red mist.

Seeing this, Dugu Yan began to explain.

"Phosphomon is a stimulant; once inhaled, it will stimulate your bloodstream."

"If there is a corresponding antidote pill, my first soul skill can be considered a soul skill that amplifies speed. If there is no antidote pill, the toxins will accumulate in your body along with the flow of blood."

"In just five minutes, you'll feel dizzy and lightheaded; in ten minutes, you'll feel weak in your limbs; and if there's no antidote within half an hour, you'll just have to wait to die."
