Chapter 137 Confrontation
Yu Tianyun waited patiently for a full quarter of an hour directly above the center of the lava lake, but the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus remained hidden, its form nowhere to be seen.
"Aren't fire-attribute soul beasts supposed to be hot-tempered? Why is this Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus so cowardly? It's a real waste of its name!"
Yu Tianyun shook his head helplessly and sighed inwardly.
"Since you don't have the guts to show yourself, then I'll force you to come out."
Immediately, all five spirit rings on Yu Tianyun's body lit up, and his body underwent another change.
The blue-purple lightning around him grew increasingly dense and radiant, with wisps of gray energy swirling around him, making him appear even more sinister and strange.
The thunder that represents justice and the gray currents that symbolize evil blend perfectly on him, creating a unique and mysterious aura.
At this moment, Yu Tianyun's two dragon claws hung on his right waist, his five fingers bent, forming a calyx shape.
Immediately afterwards, his muscles swelled rapidly, and even though they were covered by tough dragon scales, the outline of the intertwined blood vessels under his skin, like a coiled dragon, was still clearly visible.
Yu Tianyun focused intently on feeling the soul power gathering within his body, flowing continuously from his arm to his palm.
A confident smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
This move was a newly acquired skill of his!
The principle behind this self-created soul skill is extremely simple: it involves concentrating all the power in one's body and unleashing it instantly in the palm of the hand.
Compared to Thunder Sword Finger, this skill is slightly inferior in terms of penetration, but it has a significant advantage in power and attack range.
There are no tricks involved, it's just simple and straightforward!
The only challenge is that the energy gathered is too enormous to be precisely controlled.
However, his first spirit ring has a unique use in controlling the power of thunder, and coupled with the rich experience he has accumulated from cultivating Thunder Sword Finger, Yu Tianyun has mastered this skill in just half a month.
As the thunderous power poured into his palm accumulated to a critical point...
"Sizzle~"
A blinding blue-white light suddenly appeared between his palms.
The lightning power within him seemed to have found an outlet, surging wildly into his palm. The blue-white light spot became increasingly dazzling, its radiance constantly intensifying and its range expanding until it enveloped his entire body in blue-white light. A huge, radiant ball of light also appeared in his hand.
At this moment, Yu Tianyun even showed a hint of chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), and began to silently recite the name of this soul skill in his mind:
"dragon!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Rush!"
"hit!"
"Wave!"
The moment the last word echoed in his heart, he thrust his palms, still in the shape of calyxes, forcefully towards the lava lake below.
"Roar~" A powerful dragon roar also came out of Yu Tianyun's mouth at the same time.
In an instant, the blue-white ball of light, formed from highly condensed lightning, shot out from his hand.
Like a dazzling meteor, trailing a long tail of flame, it rushed rapidly towards the lava lake, the end of which was tightly connected to Yu Tianyun's palms, continuously providing a steady stream of energy for this powerful shockwave.
Just then, a deafening, furious roar echoed from the lava lake.
Clearly, the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus felt the terrifying attacks launched by Yu Tianyun and was repeatedly provoked. Although it was initially somewhat afraid, as a fire-attribute sub-dragon soul beast with a naturally volatile temper, Yu Tianyun's actions undoubtedly ignited its anger completely!
The lava lake instantly churned violently like boiling water, unleashing enormous waves. And within the churning lava, a gigantic figure finally emerged.
The surrounding air seemed to be distorted and deformed by the scorching magma and the Tyrannosaurus Rex's power, with surging heat making it difficult to breathe.
The Crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex was so terrifying that even a Titan Ape standing next to it would appear like a monkey.
Standing over twenty meters tall, it was as massive as a small mountain, its thick, powerful hind legs anchoring it in the lava like pillars supporting the sky. However, rather strangely, its forelimbs appeared extremely short and miniature compared to its enormous size.
Its body was covered with a layer of dark red, hard scales, each shimmering with a blazing light, like burning charcoal. Its enormous head took up almost a fifth of its body, and on it grew a pair of sharp, knife-like horns, curved and pointed, gleaming with a cold light.
Its crimson eyes, larger than a water vat, were glaring at Yu Tianyun, its gaze filled with both deep fear of Yu Tianyun's noble dragon bloodline and extreme resentment at being provoked.
As the terrifying light wave approached, the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus opened its blood-red maw, revealing sharp, interlocking fangs, from which wisps of scorching heat emanated.
Instantly, a massive amount of energy gathered in its mouth, followed by an extremely hot dragon breath that shot out and rushed towards it.
The "Dragon Emperor Shockwave" emitted by Yu Tianyun suddenly collided with the scorching dragon breath spewed out by the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus in mid-air.
In an instant, a devastating energy surge spread wildly outwards like a whirlwind, instantly engulfing the outer edge of the lava lake. The surrounding rocks shattered, turning into countless fragments that flew everywhere, sending dust billowing into the air. It snapped off an entire ring of tall, straight trees in the surrounding forest.
The spot where the Crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex sat immediately collapsed, creating a huge semi-circular crater.
Seeing this, Liu Erlong quickly erected an energy shield to protect Ye Lingling behind him. He looked anxiously at the center of the battle, his brows revealing a hint of worry that he could not hide.
Although she had no doubt about Yu Tianyun's strength, the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus in front of her was also quite powerful, and with her own abilities, she was definitely no match for it.
In her view, the powerful aura unleashed by that Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus was in no way inferior to that of a high-level Soul Douluo, and could even be compared to that of a low-level Title Douluo.
Liu Erlong's perception was correct. In fact, strictly speaking, the raw strength of this Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus was definitely much stronger than that of Dugu Bo in the past.
Yu Tianyun's strength was also comparable to that of the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus.
However, the bloodline power within Yu Tianyun's body has a tremendous suppressive effect on sub-dragon soul beasts, and he has extremely high resistance to fire attributes. It is precisely because of this that he dared to take on the task of Liu Erlong obtaining her eighth soul ring all by himself.
At this moment, the attacks from both sides were temporarily at a standstill in mid-air.
However, Yu Tianyun is located on the right, while the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus is located on the left.
Yu Tianyun had all the advantages of timing, location, and people, and his "Dragon Emperor Shockwave" was constantly crushing the dragon breath of the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, the Crimson Tyrannosaurus roared angrily, and the flames on its body burned even more fiercely, making the entire lava lake even hotter.
It continuously gathered its soul power into its gaping maw, increasing the intensity of its dragon breath output in an attempt to suppress Yu Tianyun's attack.
In that brief moment, it actually managed to reverse the decline, and the two sides were deadlocked for a time.
Under the clash of these powerful energies, deep cracks began to appear on the surrounding ground, as if the earth itself was groaning in pain. The lava in the lava lake continued to erupt, a spectacular yet terrifying sight, like a volcanic eruption.
"Hmph!" Yu Tianyun couldn't help but sneer inwardly upon seeing this scene.
Immediately, he shouted and mobilized his soul power again. The blue-white light wave instantly became more than twice as thick, regaining the upper hand and gradually suppressing the dragon's breath.
The Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus was immediately panicked, and its soul power became somewhat disordered.
Yu Tianyun seized the opportunity and suddenly exerted his strength. The "Dragon Emperor Shockwave" broke through the dragon's breath with overwhelming force and rushed straight towards the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus.
Seeing that the powerful attack was unstoppable, the Crimson Tyrannosaurus tried to escape, but the "Dragon Emperor Shockwave" was so fast that it could not completely dodge it.
A deafening roar suddenly erupted from the center of the lava lake. A blinding blue-white light flashed from the center of the explosion, instantly obscuring everything around it and making it impossible to see anything.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying aftershock swept out, snapping a large number of trees in the forest.
The earth trembled violently, as if a powerful earthquake had occurred, and the entire lava lake was boiling violently.
Yu Tianyun's eyes emitted red and blue light, and the scene at the center of the explosion was clearly reflected in his eyes. His figure moved the moment the explosion occurred.
He wouldn't be foolish enough to wait for the aftershocks of the explosion to dissipate before taking action; he would strike while the iron was hot!
In Yu Tianyun's vision, a section of the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus's hind leg and tail had disappeared. Because all of this happened so quickly, the pain had not yet had time to invade its nerves.
The crimson tyrannosaurus lay prostrate on the ground, momentarily stunned, but in the next instant, alarm bells rang in its mind as a dangerous and sharp aura rushed toward it.
It hurriedly raised its head, but all it could see was a blue and white light; it couldn't see anything clearly.
The Crimson Tyrannosaurus stared wide-eyed in terror, desperately trying to struggle to its feet and fight back. But just then, a terrifying force of gravity struck, slamming its raised head back into the ground. At that moment, it was incredibly difficult for it to move even an inch.
Yu Tianyun's eyes were cold and devoid of any pity. He swung his right dragon claw, which had turned dark gold, and viciously grabbed at the thigh of the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus.
"Clang!" Just as the dark golden blade was about to touch the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus, it suddenly erupted with a powerful soul force, and flames around its body burned fiercely again, forming a protective barrier.
Yu Tianyun's dragon claws gripped the barrier, creating layers of energy ripples.
But he didn't pause at all. He suddenly pulled back his right dragon claw and then slammed it down again with even more terrifying power than before.
Once, twice, three times...
Yu Tianyun gave the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus no chance to breathe, continuing to launch fierce attacks, with the dragon's claws clashing violently against the flame barrier.
In that instant, the dark golden blade and the flame barrier collided countless times.
The Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus fought back with all its might against Yu Tianyun's attack, letting out a painful roar.
Immediately after that roar, the ripples on the flame barrier surged violently, and the Crimson Blood Tyrannosaurus finally could no longer hold on.
"Boom!" The barrier shattered instantly. Staring at the dark golden dragon claw about to strike its body, it knew that its fate was sealed today...
