Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 354 Thunder Dragon vs. Mountain Dragon

"It's no use."

Sensing that Long Yue seemed to still want to suppress him with his bloodline, Shenwei felt slightly bored.

These special clones were created after their dragon bloodline was processed. However, because their bloodline was not fully evolved, they still have some influence.

The other three didn't have this problem. After all, they were the first clones created, so some minor flaws were inevitable.

But it doesn't matter, because a trace of the power of "Mistake," the pinnacle of Nan Fusheng's Thief Path, still remains in his body.

Even if this power from the true god is not much, as long as he continues to refine his bloodline, one day this power will promote the complete fusion of his bloodline and thus lead to evolution.

"Come on, let's see who's stronger!" Shenwei leaned back and landed smoothly. His black, ten-thousand-year-old soul ring emitted a faint black light, and then he pounced towards Long Yue. First Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Power.

Long Yue's height had swelled to over ten meters, far exceeding his appearance when he fought Xie Xie. This was the appearance of his martial soul after it had fully exerted its power, and his whole body was filled with a terrifying sense of power.

Faced with Kamui's arrival, he swung his body sideways, and his huge tail swept towards Kamui.

There's no need for dragon transformation, because the Mountain Dragon Martial Soul itself is a form of dragon transformation—this is the advantage of being a son of the Dragon God. In a sense, Long Yue can no longer be considered a pure human.

Kamui swung his right fist fiercely, colliding with his tail. The terrifying roar caused the entire arena to tremble violently.

A punch imbued with powerful lightning collided with Long Yue's body, unleashing a thunderous roar.

The Mountain and River Soul Skill is extremely powerful, combining offense and defense, and it also grants Long Yue a strong defensive ability. Even so, when faced with Shenwei's amplified power from using a ten-thousand-year Soul Skill, he was still forced to take two or three steps back by a single punch from Shenwei.

Shenwei, however, used the recoil force to retreat and move away from Longyue.

"As expected of the Mountain Dragon King Martial Soul, in terms of defense, this should be considered the top defensive Martial Soul of its level."

Kamui burst into laughter. This battle was getting more and more interesting. With a wave of his right hand, countless bolts of lightning condensed in his hand, eventually forming a long spear.

The spear is about four meters long, and behind its sharp spearhead are several pairs of sharp blades that protrude like wings.

This was his first soul spirit, the ten-thousand-year-old weapon-type external soul bone brought by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus: Thunder Claw Zeus.

Kamui gripped the spear with both hands, and the handle and blade of the Thunderclaw Zeus spear began to grow longer and longer, eventually reaching a length of more than five meters before stopping.

This is one of the characteristics of his external soul bone: it can freely adjust its size to adapt to the user's body size.

"Let's have another strength contest!"

A bloodthirsty glint flashed in Shenwei's eyes. Then, his body once again left a trail of afterimages as he appeared in front of Long Yue, and the spear in his hand smashed towards Long Yue's face.

He wants to test his strength against Long Yue!

"Boom—" Long Yue's eyes burned like raging flames, and a hint of madness began to appear deep in his eyes.

With a flick of his right hand, a double-pointed spear appeared in his grasp. This spear was ten meters long, as thick as an average human waist, and entirely brown in color; its material was unknown.

He gripped his spear with both hands and swung it horizontally, colliding with Zeus's thunderclaw.

"boom--"

Many viewers instinctively covered their ears.

Almost everyone present had been looking forward to this match for a long time, but few could have imagined that it would be a contest of strength.

The power displayed by Kamui and Ryuu could only be described as superhuman. The audience was both shocked and stunned.

With the amplification of his ten-thousand-year soul skill, Shenwei's power is not much inferior to Long Yue's. In fact, due to the characteristics of the ultimate lightning, he is even better in terms of explosive power. He doesn't know any marksmanship; he relies solely on pure combat experience.

Long Yue unleashed a spear technique, and the two clashed head-on with wide, sweeping movements. Each violent boom caused the arena to shake violently. This didn't look like two humans fighting; it was more like two colossal beasts colliding.

With the blessing of dragon transformation, Shenwei's spear swung faster and faster, and with increasing power.

He is better in speed and explosiveness, but Long Yue is stronger in strength and endurance.

No matter, the paralyzing properties of the ultimate lightning also seeped into the body of Long Yue through the collision of Zeus's lightning claws and spear. As time goes by, it will be a matter of whether Long Yue can overpower him or he can paralyze Long Yue first.

The collision between the two became increasingly fierce. Long Yue's body was covered with protrusions like mountains, constantly scattering stones and other objects that would then turn into light and disappear in the air. He was dissipating the lightning power that was corroding his body.

Enci sat on the podium, watching the scene on the field, and couldn't help but be a little lost in thought.

He never imagined that someone could rival Long Yue in strength, and that this person's cultivation level was even weaker than Long Yue's.

"That's exhilarating! That's exhilarating!" Long Yue laughed loudly. Since he achieved mastery of his cultivation, he had been unmatched in terms of strength. Even some seventh- or eighth-ring power-attack type Soul Masters could not reliably suppress him in terms of power.

But at this moment, Shenwei and he were going head-to-head, and the two were clashing purely in terms of strength, which made Long Yue feel extremely exhilarated.

When a person is powerful enough, what they desire most is to have an opponent who is equally powerful. Only in this way can they unleash their full potential and continuously improve themselves in the process.

Shenwei was also feeling incredibly exhilarated at this moment. During the battle with Long Yue, he felt his own blood boiling, as the dragon race was known for its fierce nature.

When he and Long Yue engaged in a full-scale clash, he felt waves of heat surging through his body, unleashing the power hidden within his bones, blood vessels, and internal organs.

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus bloodline within him was merging with the power of the Thunder Beast, and even the power belonging to the Thunderous Hell Vine was showing signs of agitation.

He had a premonition that when these three forces truly merged, it would be the moment his Thunder Claw Dragon Martial Soul reached its full potential. At that time, he might evolve into a new dragon race different from the Dragon God lineage.

He will become a new race! A new dragon race that will not be affected by the bloodline of the dragon god.

……

In the waiting area, Dai Yueyan's eyes were somewhat dazed. He and Long Yue had sparred quite a few times, but Long Yue had never used a weapon during those sparring sessions.

Today, Shenwei forced Long Yue to use the double-pointed spear right from the start, revealing that Long Yue also possessed such weapon capabilities.

Although the spear was not fast, its momentum was absolutely unprecedented in his life. Each thrust would cut through the air, completely merging with Long Yue's own momentum and the Mountain and River Soul Skill, like a mountain collapsing.

When facing such a dragon leap, Shenwei's weapon seemed to transform from a spear into a staff, smashing mountains one after another with wide, sweeping movements.

Could he do it? Dai Yueyan asked himself. In terms of strength, even if he wore battle armor, he definitely couldn't do it.

Are the people of Douluo Continent really that powerful? They are about five years younger than them. Even so, their Star Luo Empire was still utterly defeated.

Judging from this, the young Lu Fa, Shen Wei, Tang Wulin, and others have all made it into the quarterfinals.

What about the other geniuses in Douluo Continent who are the same age as their monster king? Wouldn't they be even more terrifying?

Dai Yueyan couldn't help but feel a headache coming on. As a prince, he had to consider not only his personal combat strength, but also the future development of the empire, with military force being of paramount importance.

Both Lu Fa and Shen Wei graduated from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, and most of the hawks on the Sun Moon Federation's side are also graduates of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Undoubtedly, these two are highly likely to clash with their Star Luo Continent in the future.

At that time, how should they respond? A brave general can influence the course of a war to a certain extent.

Even though their relationship with the Federation has improved, being prepared for potential dangers in times of peace is a virtue that any good ruler should possess, and Dai Yueyan is clearly one of them.

"Boom—" Shenwei's spear clashed with Long Yue's once again, once again forcing the Mountain Dragon King back. Long Yue took two steps back, his spear emitting a series of buzzing sounds.

"Alright, let's go again!" Long Yue roared, his body swelled up, and he took another step forward. This time, he used his spear as a staff, gripping it with both hands, and smashed it down on Shenwei's head.

"Tch, evenly matched, huh?"

Shenwei clicked his tongue. He was certain that Long Yue was not in a good mood right now, but he himself was also close to his limit.

With the power brought by absolute speed, every collision between him and Long Yue's Mountain Dragon Martial Soul would bring a recoil force. The interaction of forces is always relative.

The current situation is that although Long Yue's body has begun to go numb, Shen Wei himself is also not feeling well.

Even if the Mountain Dragon King's martial soul wasn't at its peak, it was still nearly perfect. Thanks to the dragon race's powerful physique, his lightning wouldn't have a significant impact on Long Yue for the time being.

"If there are no flaws, then create them."

Shenwei's Thunder Claw Zeus blazed with lightning, meeting Long Yue's spear head-on without flinching.

Boom—" Another collision.

This time, Long Yue was blasted back five steps before he could barely stand up. His hands trembled, and he raised his spear high, exposing his bare chest.

Even though he could withstand the erosion of lightning, a considerable amount of lightning still remained in his body, numbing him. Now, Shenwei's attack was meant to draw out all that lightning, creating an opening.

"There's a flaw!"

Shenwei's gaze sharpened, lightning crackled from his right arm, his body lowered, and he slammed his left foot into the ground, leaving a large crater. The next instant, he flung his spear out like a shooting star, hurtling straight towards Long Yue's chest.

At this moment, propelled by the immense force, Long Yue was rapidly retreating, his arms raised, seemingly powerless to block the spear. Undoubtedly, given the spear's current immense impact, if it were to strike Long Yue directly…

Almost all the spectators held their breath. They had clearly seen the immense force generated by the collision between the two. Especially the tip of that spear, which looked incredibly sharp. If it had hit him head-on, even Long Yue would probably have been pierced through.

"River!" Long Yue roared, his second spirit ring flashing. He finally couldn't resist using his second spirit skill.

Huge torrents surged from the sky and the ground simultaneously, instantly transforming the entire competition arena into a confluence of countless rivers.

A river crashed against the spear, but it was no match for it. The spear pierced through the water and reached Long Yue's chest in an instant.

"Swamp!" The third spirit ring lit up again, and a brownish light instantly expanded, enveloping the spear. However, it had no effect. The spear still carried an indomitable momentum, breaking through the swamp and thrusting towards Long Yue's chest with undiminished force.

Is this how the game is going to end?

"Immovable as a mountain!" Long Yue roared, and his whole body suddenly became towering. He was able to release three soul skills in a row for defense.

"Boom—" Long Yue's massive body was blasted out like a cannonball, flying all the way to a hundred meters away before crashing into the soul guide shield on the side and bouncing back.

"Cough, cough!"

With his double-pointed spear supporting him on the ground, Long Yue flipped over and landed steadily. His breathing became heavier, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. Clearly, even though he had blocked the attack, he was not feeling well.

The seemingly brief collision brought the match to a climax. At least on the surface, it was Long Yue who suffered a loss. He was shot away by Shenwei and a trace of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Such strong defense! The Mountain Dragon King Martial Soul truly lives up to its reputation!"

With a flick of his right hand, Shenwei sent the spear, which had been flying into the distance, back into his hand as a bolt of lightning. As an externally attached soul bone that had become one with him, he still possessed this level of control.

He had originally thought that his attack just now, if not defeating Long Yue, should at least have seriously injured him.

Unexpectedly, Long Yue was able to unleash three soul skills in an instant, using the river and swamp as obstacles to deflect some of the spear's momentum, and then using the mountains and rivers as defense, successfully protecting himself.

Although they did manage to injure Long Yue in the end, it was still far from what they expected.

Long Yue should also become more cautious. It won't be so easy for him to paralyze his opponent through close combat like he did before.
