Chapter 378: Martial Soul Suppression? Evolution, Thunder Saint Dragon!
"You feel it, don't you?" Qian Renxue's voice rang out, as if she had noticed Yu Tianlin's condition. "This is suppression based on Martial Soul quality."
"Martial Soul quality suppression?"
Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Yu Tianlin's brows furrowed even deeper.
"That's right," Qian Renxue said, her voice carrying a hint of arrogance. "The Seraphim is the highest-quality Martial Soul on the Douluo Continent. Neither the Clear Sky Hammer nor the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon can compare to it."
Yu Tianlin naturally understood what Qian Renxue meant.
The Seraphim was a divine-rank Martial Soul. Although the Clear Sky Hammer and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon were both top-grade Martial Souls, they were still a notch below it.
Relatively speaking, the Clear Sky Hammer was a Tool Martial Soul, so even if its quality was inferior to the Seraphim, the impact of the suppression would be much smaller, almost negligible. However, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the Seraphim were both Beast Martial Souls, so the suppression affected the former much more directly.
In the past, Yu Tianlin had always relied on Martial Soul quality to suppress others. He had never expected to be suppressed by Qian Renxue instead. This was the first time in his life.
In fact, blocking Qian Renxue's Martial Soul suppression was simple. As long as Yu Tianlin used the power of the Thunder God, he could naturally resolve it with ease, and even suppress Qian Renxue in return.
However, this thought only flashed through Yu Tianlin's mind before he immediately suppressed it.
Qian Renxue would also receive a Deity Legacy in the future. If he displayed the power of the Thunder God in front of her now, even if she did not understand it at present, she would naturally comprehend it once she received the Angel God's Legacy. That would expose his true foundation.
Thinking of this, Yu Tianlin immediately made his decision.
He could not use the power of the Thunder God.
"You seem very proud," Yu Tianlin said. "Even with the advantage of your Martial Soul's quality, you can only barely fight me to a draw. That only shows how weak you are."
"You're courting death!"
Yu Tianlin's words struck a sore spot, causing anger to flash across Qian Renxue's face. She immediately charged forward with her Light Holy Sword.
Yu Tianlin naturally did not fear Qian Renxue's attack and met her head-on.
The two instantly became locked in battle.
During their exchange, Yu Tianlin was clearly stronger, and his Martial Soul True Body was also more formidable. However, because of the Martial Soul suppression, he could not fully unleash his strength, only managing to bring out about ninety percent of his power. As a result, the fight remained in a stalemate.
This feeling made Yu Tianlin extremely uncomfortable. He almost wanted to unleash his First Spirit Skill directly and blast Qian Renxue to pieces.
However, what Yu Tianlin did not know was that during his continuous offense and defense against Qian Renxue, the golden lightning mark on his forehead had been emitting a faint glow all along, and his entire torso was subtly heating up.
The golden mark was on Yu Tianlin's forehead, so he could not see it. As for the heat in his torso, Yu Tianlin merely thought it was caused by the intensity of the battle, so he did not notice anything unusual.
Once again, blue-purple lightning erupted, intertwining with Qian Renxue's Holy Light and annihilating each other. Yu Tianlin suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a trace of gold mixed into his lightning, but he immediately dismissed it as an illusion. He thought he had merely mistaken Qian Renxue's golden Holy Light for his own lightning.
Thus, everything continued unnoticed until...
Bang!
With a loud explosion, Bai Baoshan's Heavenly Star Furnace was pierced through by a Serpent Lance. Bai Baoshan himself spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming extremely weak.
The only defensive Martial Soul among the Three Committee Members had been broken, causing the three of them to immediately lose their support. Snake Lance Douluo then defeated them one after another.
After severely injuring the Three Committee Members, Snake Lance Douluo did not immediately kill them. Instead, he quickly turned and attacked Yu Tianlin.
Yu Tianlin suddenly felt a sharp chill from behind. He wanted to dodge, but Qian Renxue was holding him in check. He barely managed to shift his body, but the massive Dragon body formed by his Martial Soul True Body was too large. In the end, he could not completely avoid it, and the Serpent Lance stabbed fiercely into the area near his back.
"It's done. Yu Tianlin, die!"
Seeing this scene, Qian Renxue's eyes shone with golden excitement.
However, in the next moment, her expression changed to astonishment.
The Serpent Lance, which could even pierce through the Martial Soul of a defensive Spirit Douluo, did not penetrate Yu Tianlin's body. It only sank into his flesh.
"Is it a torso Spirit Bone? And an extremely high-grade one."
Qian Renxue was, after all, the Young Lord of Spirit Hall. Although she was surprised, she quickly reacted and roughly understood the situation.
While Qian Renxue was surprised, Yu Tianlin felt something entirely different.
His torso Spirit Bone had suffered the most direct impact, causing his attention to focus on his torso. At the same time, he felt a constant surge of heat coming from his torso Spirit Bone.
"What is this?"
The hot current flowing out from his torso Spirit Bone spread through his entire body. At the same time, the mark between his brows seemed to respond to the torso Spirit Bone, releasing a warm aura that instantly swept through him.
Yu Tianlin felt incomparably comfortable, and his mind became exceptionally clear. Subconsciously, he released his Lightning Power.
Violent Lightning Power erupted, directly forcing back Qian Renxue in front of him and Snake Lance Douluo behind him.
What surprised Yu Tianlin was that the lightning he released was no longer its original blue-purple color. Instead, it had turned golden.
Golden lightning?
Before Yu Tianlin could figure out what was happening, he suddenly noticed that his massive Dragon body had begun shrinking uncontrollably. It continued until it stopped at roughly two-thirds of its original size.
Not only had his body shrunk, but subtle changes had also appeared across his Dragon body. His Dragon horns had turned golden and seemed even sharper. The Dragon scales on his body became more delicate and compact. Their color remained blue-purple, but a glazed sheen appeared across the surface, faintly covered with golden patterns.
Overall, Yu Tianlin now gave off a feeling extremely similar to Qian Renxue not far away.
"Good! Good! Good!"
Just as Yu Tianlin was somewhat bewildered, a hearty laugh came from high in the sky.
"As expected of my grandson. Martial Soul evolution! Martial Soul evolution!"
This laughter immediately drew everyone's attention. Everyone looked up at the same time and saw Yu Yuanzhen standing high in the sky, laughing heartily while holding a black-robed figure in his hand.
"Grandpa?"
Seeing Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Tianlin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had thought something had gone wrong, but now it was fine. With his grandfather's arrival, the situation was settled.
After laughing, Yu Yuanzhen flashed and appeared beside Yu Tianlin, carefully examining his current Dragon body in its Martial Soul True Body state.
"So similar to the Light Holy Dragon summoned by Xiaogang and the others through their Martial Soul Fusion Skill. The only difference is the color and the attribute of lightning."
"There is no mistake. This is the Thunder Saint Dragon!"
