Chapter 107: Initial Creation of Ultimate Techniques, Bibi Dong: Accompany Me or Her?
One year later, Spirit City.
Inside the Pope's Palace, Qian Xunji was handling the affairs of Spirit Hall. Due to the newly established Pill Hall branch, his workload as Pope had increased significantly.
At this moment, loud booming sounds came from above Spirit Hall, making him rub his head helplessly.
"Sigh, here it goes again. Xiao Yuan and the uncles are at it again."
Over the past year, to develop ultimate techniques suited to himself, Yun Yuan would frequently challenge one of the Douluo Hall elders.
Seeing his youngest disciple, Yun Yuan, become so outstanding, already capable of fighting his uncles, Qian Xunji felt both delighted and astonished. This excellent disciple of his was no longer merely a genius but a true powerhouse.
Above Spirit Hall.
This time, Yun Yuan's opponent was the Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo, a soul master extremely close to the Limit Douluo level.
"Yuan Character Technique: Thousand-Jun Sinking Abyss!"
"Ling Character Technique: Layered Peaks Soaring to the Sky!"
Thousand-Jun Sinking Abyss and Layered Peaks Soaring to the Sky were the two moves Yun Yuan had comprehended over the past year based on the characteristics of his martial soul and soul skills. He incorporated them into his Atlas Spear Art, naming them the "Yuan Character" and "Ling Character" Techniques.
Thousand-Jun Sinking Abyss condensed a heavy force within the Atlas Spear. With every swing, the spear grew heavier, the force restrained and unyielding, suppressing bones, suppressing the soul, and suppressing the origin of the martial soul!
Layered Peaks Soaring to the Sky, stacked force upon force. The spear momentum flowed endlessly, thrusts connecting without gaps. Countless spear shadows advanced layer upon layer, their sharpness cascading like a heavenly river, with the force accumulating continuously without interruption.
In addition, Yun Yuan's Atlas Spear Art included several other techniques, all self-created over the past year, making his attack methods far more diverse.
However, the Atlas Spear Art was only in its initial stage. As Yun Yuan's strength and comprehension grew, it would inevitably become even more powerful.
Perhaps in the future, it would become the ultimate secret technique most desired by all spear-type martial soul users across the Douluo Continent.
Seeing Yun Yuan use the Yuan Character and Ling Character techniques, Golden Crocodile Douluo also responded with his own self-created ultimate techniques.
Golden Crocodile Douluo did not release his soul rings. He merely circulated his soul power and used his self-created techniques to fight Yun Yuan.
As for Yun Yuan, he held the incomparably sharp Atlas Spear, five soul rings revolving around him, each flashing constantly.
This indicated that Yun Yuan was fighting at full strength against Golden Crocodile Douluo. After all, this was a rank ninety-eight Super Douluo who had also condensed his first soul core.
Even though over the past year, Yun Yuan's soul power had reached rank seventy, and his self-created techniques had pushed his strength into the rank ninety-seven tier—
If Golden Crocodile Douluo were to go all out and use soul skills, Yun Yuan would have no chance to fight back.
As the two clashed, Yun Yuan initially fell into a disadvantage. However, relying on the Yuan Character and Ling Character techniques, he grew stronger as the battle continued, the force of the Atlas Spear becoming increasingly fierce.
By the end, against Golden Crocodile Douluo, who was not using soul skills, Yun Yuan had begun to gain the upper hand.
"Enough, enough. Xiao Yuan, these two moves of yours are too troublesome. The longer we fight, the stronger you become. If this continues, this old man's bones will be shaken apart by your heavy force."
Seeing Yun Yuan's force grow stronger and stronger, Golden Crocodile Douluo immediately called a halt. If they continued, he would have no choice but to use soul skills, which would go against the purpose of their spar.
Hearing this, Yun Yuan stopped swinging the spear, and the accumulated force within him dissipated.
The way he stacked force was somewhat similar to the Clear Sky Sect's Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, yet it surpassed it.
Because he could stack force while fighting, without any gaps. Essentially, from the very beginning of the battle, he was already under continuous amplification.
The longer the fight dragged on, the more terrifying Yun Yuan's combat power became. If his body could withstand the backlash of the force, he could keep stacking indefinitely.
At the later stages, even Qian Daoliu might not be his opponent, provided his body could endure it.
After ending the battle, Golden Crocodile Douluo returned to Douluo Hall, while Yun Yuan headed back to his residence behind the Pope's Palace.
"Junior Brother, you're back. I feel my practical combat experience needs improvement. Come spar with me."
"Xiao Yuan, I've had quite a few questions about alchemy lately. Could you guide me?"
Just as Yun Yuan arrived at his residence, the voices of Bibi Dong and Ye Qingxian reached his ears.
Before long, the two arrived beside him. Each grabbed one of his arms and began arguing.
"Ye Qingxian, if you have questions about alchemy, aren't there two hall masters in the Pill Hall? Why do you keep clinging to my junior brother?
As she spoke, Bibi Dong pulled Yun Yuan slightly toward her side, her gaze toward Ye Qingxian far from friendly.
"Bibi Dong, what about you? There are so many powerful soul masters in Spirit Hall. As the Saintess of Spirit Hall, why don't you train with them instead of dragging Xiao Yuan along?"
Ye Qingxian shot back immediately, also pulling Yun Yuan toward her side.
Bibi Dong was the Saintess of Spirit Hall, but she herself was personally appointed by Yun Yuan as the Saintess of the Pill Hall.
As the daughter of Ye Zhiyun, Ye Qingxian's talent in alchemy surpassed her mother's. She was the strongest among the younger generation.
Now, she was already a fifth-grade alchemist. In the future, once she reached the ninth grade, Yun Yuan would pass the position of Pill Hall Master to her.
At present, both she and Bibi Dong are Saintesses. Although Bibi Dong's status was higher, in the future, Ye Qingxian would become the Hall Master of the Pill Hall, while Bibi Dong might not necessarily become the Pope of the Spirit Hall. Naturally, Ye Qingxian had no reason to fear her.
Hearing Ye Qingxian's words, Bibi Dong snorted coldly. Then she looked at Yun Yuan with anticipation in her eyes.
"Junior Brother, tell me. Will you accompany me first or teach that bad woman first?"
Seeing the question thrown to him, Yun Yuan felt extremely troubled. No matter which one he chose, the other would be upset.
At this moment, Yun Yuan felt that even fighting ferocious beasts would be easier than dealing with the two before him.
Helpless, he could only change the subject.
"Senior Sister, Sister Qingxian, sorry… I came to say goodbye this time."
Hearing this, both Bibi Dong and Ye Qingxian were stunned. Then Bibi Dong reacted first, staring at Yun Yuan.
"Junior Brother, are you trying to avoid the question?"
"Of course not." Yun Yuan shook his head and explained.
"Senior Sister, Sister Qingxian, my soul power has reached rank seventy. It's time for me to obtain my seventh soul ring."
"This time, my target for the seventh soul ring is at least a hundred-thousand-year soul beast. I estimate it will take quite some time."
This was indeed the truth. He had originally planned to set out in a few days, but after the scene just now, he decided to leave today.
