Although Zhao Wuji's soul skills also included some that could attack from a distance, if facing someone like Oscar, a "flying soul master," who deliberately kept their distance, there was really nothing he could do.
At this moment, Zhao Wuji could only look helplessly at Oscar and his two companions high in the sky, because he didn't have flight ability, and his attack range was limited.
Oscar and Ma Hongjun exchanged a glance, and both simultaneously burst with soul power. Oscar threw his jade sword into the air, transforming it into sky-blue, ice-blue, and crimson-red soul power light.
The tricolor light suddenly transformed into over fifty tricolor jade swords. Sword qi with three different elements—cutting, ice, and flame—suddenly erupted from the tricolor jade swords.
"Sword Stance—Three Element Sword Rain!"
Oscar shouted, and over fifty jade swords suddenly rained down toward Zhao Wuji, mainly locking onto his face, heart, chest and abdomen, and lower body positions.
Beside Oscar, Ma Hongjun did the same. As his soul power erupted, a massive fire phoenix condensed behind him, issuing a resounding phoenix cry. Under Ma Hongjun's urging, the fire phoenix suddenly locked onto and dove toward Zhao Wuji.
"Third Soul Skill: Phoenix Cloud Piercing Strike!"
Their attacks came one after another toward Zhao Wuji. With their full effort, this combined attack from the two of them could not necessarily be defended against even by a high-level Soul Ancestor.
And not only that—after their attacks were launched, Dugu Yan also slowly raised her right arm. Soul power surged on her right arm as if transforming into a hideous and terrifying purple-black giant snake.
The giant snake flicked its tongue, and a ball of deadly poison suddenly condensed in its mouth into a sharp and lethal poison arrow.
"Bone-Corroding Poison Python Right Arm Soul Bone Skill: Bone-Eroding Heart-Piercing Arrow!"
The hideous giant snake suddenly spat out a cold gleaming poison arrow, its target precisely Zhao Wuji's heart. The idea was exactly the same as Oscar's—a fatal blow in one hit!
Facing such an all-out attack, even Zhao Wuji didn't dare be careless. The black sixth soul ring on his body suddenly lit up. Terrifying soul power suddenly condensed, and a layer of golden-yellow light circulated on his body.
Zhao Wuji's already very burly figure, under the power of this ten-thousand-year soul skill, suddenly expanded another circle. His entire body instantly became tall and mighty, his muscles reaching a terrifying level. His eyes suddenly widened in anger, like an enraged Vajra.
"Sixth Soul Skill: Wrathful Vajra!"
Terrifying soul power gushed forth. Under the terrifying enhancement of the sixth soul skill, Zhao Wuji slowly raised his two massive bear paws. Brown-yellow light circulated on the bear paws—his second soul skill, Vajra Palm!
Zhao Wuji's two legs suddenly sank, and his two bear paws quickly slapped toward the attacks from everyone in the sky. Brown-yellow massive Vajra palm shadows suddenly flew out.
"Bang bang bang!"
Countless palm shadows shattered every single one of Oscar's jade swords. The jade swords that had filled the sky didn't even get within ten meters of Zhao Wuji before being completely destroyed, transforming into tricolor soul power light dissipating in the air.
Ma Hongjun and Dugu Yan's attacks met the same fate. Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Cloud Piercing Strike was also destroyed by Zhao Wuji's countless Vajra Palm shadows.
Although Dugu Yan's soul bone skill was over twenty thousand years old, she couldn't fully unleash its complete power at her current level.
The poison arrow's attack, while getting closer than Oscar and Ma Hongjun's attacks, was still destroyed before reaching within five meters of Zhao Wuji's body.
The destroyed poison arrow suddenly exploded into a corrosive mist strong enough to instantly rot a soul master's bones. But Zhao Wuji quickly retreated and dodged the poison mist's invasion, completely unaffected.
Actually, the combined attack of Oscar's trio was already enough to threaten some weaker Soul Kings, but they were facing Zhao Wuji at full power with soul power at the seventy-eighth level.
Under the enhancement of his sixth soul skill, given Zhao Wuji's strength and talent, unless he encountered at least a Soul Saint-level powerhouse, he could be considered invincible even at the same level.
In a battle against three children in their teens, for Zhao Wuji to use his sixth soul skill was already something even ordinary Soul Emperors couldn't achieve.
It could be said that Zhao Wuji definitely hadn't gone easy too much—he truly needed to do this to ensure he wouldn't be injured.
So although Zhao Wuji defended against the trio's combined attack without injury, he inwardly recognized their strength.
A thirty-seventh level and two thirty-fifth level Soul Grandmasters working together could contend against a Soul King at full power—this was already the greatest recognition for Oscar and his companions.
At this moment, Oscar hurriedly took out three Super Recovery Big Sausages from his soul tool, ate one himself, and gave one each to Ma Hongjun and Dugu Yan.
Their final attack had consumed almost all their soul power—it was truly a full-power strike with nothing held back.
Zhao Wuji looked with satisfaction at the three people in the sky and smiled slightly: "Not bad. Being able to force out my sixth soul skill—you three little ones can be proud of yourselves."
Hearing this, Oscar put away his jade sword, held the jade hand of Dugu Yan who had come to his side and also put away her martial soul, and together with Ma Hongjun slowly descended in front of Zhao Wuji.
"Teacher Zhao, if you say that, we're going to get carried away." Oscar chuckled in reply.
Zhao Wuji looked at Oscar, who was smiling so happily, put away his martial soul, and glared at him: "But don't celebrate too early either. Although your third soul skill being a flight ability did exceed my expectations, there's still more potential for coordination between you all."
"Xiao Ao, I won't say much about you—you've discovered your own problems. I believe without much urging, you'll be able to solve them yourself."
"Dugu Yan's final attack should be a soul bone skill. Although the attack range and method of this soul bone skill are both quite good, you also need to practice diligently. These will be your killing moves in the future."
Hearing these fair words from Zhao Wuji, Oscar restrained his smile and nodded seriously: "I understand, Teacher Zhao. We'll all stay at the academy and train seriously. We'll be troubling you a lot in the future—don't get impatient with us, old man."
As Oscar spoke, he deliberately made a joke at the end. Over these years, Oscar had gotten up early and late every day to find Zhao Wuji, borrowing his gravity control for training. Zhao Wuji had never once said no, so naturally impatience wasn't an issue.
But even if the old man really did get impatient, Oscar wasn't afraid now. After all, he had a teacher who was about to break through to the eighty-eighth level—Gai Yue's soul power was a full ten levels higher than Zhao Wuji's.
If Old Zhao got impatient, Oscar would go cry to his teacher. Gai Yue doted on Oscar the most, treating him like his own son. If Gai Yue took action, Zhao Wuji would definitely get a beating!
Hearing Oscar's slightly teasing words, Zhao Wuji chuckled: "You brat, as long as you come find me, Old Zhao will definitely accommodate you!"
Then Zhao Wuji beckoned to Oscar: "I know you're used to storing soul skills. Hurry up and give me two Super Recovery Big Sausages. My soul power consumption isn't small either!"
Hearing this, Oscar took out three Super Recovery Big Sausages from his soul tool and handed them to Zhao Wuji. Zhao Wuji consumed all three at once, his soul power and physical strength recovering rapidly.
These sausages were stored by Oscar after reaching thirty-seventh level. Although for a seventy-eighth level Zhao Wuji the recovery was limited, with three sausages, his soul power and physical strength could still recover quite a bit quickly.
And most importantly, Oscar's soul skill storage duration seemed to have changed greatly from the original work. In the original work, the storage time for each soul skill gradually increased.
For example, the first soul skill storage time was seven days, the second soul skill half a month, the third soul skill one month, and so on.
But now Oscar's soul skill storage duration was different—it changed according to the longest storage time.
For instance, his first soul skill storage time was seven days. But after obtaining the second soul skill, if the second soul skill's storage time was half a month, then his first soul skill's storage time also became half a month.
And now Oscar's third soul skill storage time was one month, so all three of Oscar's soul skills had a storage time of one month.
This was undoubtedly great news for Oscar. It meant he could store as many of his own soul skills as possible, ready for whenever they were needed.
