Douluo Dalu: Legend Of Xiao Yan

Chapter 29 - 29: Vs Zhao Wuji(2)

Author's Note: This is one of the few fight scenario that I have ever written so I'm sorry if it's not up to standards.

========================================================================================================================

"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

Ning Rongrong immediately summoned her spirit. Raising both of her opened hands up into a offering, a beautiful multi seven colored and seven layered pagoda appeared on top of said opened hands.

The treasured pagoda lights flicked, a sudden noble aura appeared surrounding her and the pagoda, Ning Rongrong wore a slight smile, her entire visage looking like an immortal who floats indefinitely in the sky. Two yellow spirit rings rose up from underneath her body, quietly hovering around her.

She opened her mouth and said.

"Seven treasure words, first word: Strength!"

The first spirit ring rose up, enveloping the seven colored pagoda, at Ning Rong Rong's left hand's directions, five streams of bright light simultaneously shot out, separately enveloping the bodies of Xiao Yan and the others.

Immediately, a warm energy bubbled up from their four limbs and other bones in their body, all five of them suddenly felt like their whole bodies were brimming with great strength, spirit power continuously coursing more than before within them, like it was boiling.

Zhao Wuji looked shocked, staring at Ning Rongrong and said.

"Holy mother of... To think that this year's examinees that there's an unexpectedly surprise! A member of the seven treasures glazed tile clan. Hahahaha! Good! Good! That old ghost Flender would be quite ecstatic this time."

While speaking, he effortlessly threw.... an ignited incense in his hand, that he got out of nowhere, to sticking in the ground.

"Seven treasure words, second word: Speed."

Again five streams of bright light shot out, Ning Rongrong's second spirit ring also displayed its effect.

'Reading it and feeling it in real life is truly different. Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, sure enough, it's reputation isn't just mere air. Speed and strength simultaneously increasing thirty percent, along with the increased 15% from the pills, makes me feel invincible!' An excited grin appeared on his face before shaking his head, Xiao Yan feel like his spirit power had greatly increased as well.

With the help of the pills; Xiao Yan, Xun Er, Tang San and Xiao Wu has 45% increased in both strength and speed, 15% in endurance and defense. While Zhu Zhuqing received 50% increased in both strength and speed, 15% in endurance and defense.

Xiao Yan and Xun Er, without saying anything, launched themselves towards Zhao Wuji, with the help of their heavenly flame on their feet, propelling them towards him like a pair of rockets.

With Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, they undergo their two different beast spirits transformation. Two rabbit ears and bushy small tail grew on Xiao Wu's body, who suddenly became more taller, slender and her eyes becoming red. Two yellow and one purple spirit rings rose underneath her before rising to surround around her mid section.

While Zhu Zhuqing's both eyes simultaneously change with the left eye becoming dark green and right eye clear blue. The long hair naturally remained docile on her back. Her fingers changed into sharp claws. Two yellow spirit rings rose underneath her body.

The two of them separated the moment Xiao Yan and Xun Er moved to attack. Xiao Wu went to the left while Zhu Zhuqing went to the right.

Lastly, Tang San summoned out his spirit blue silver grass. Twenty five long blue silver grass appeared behind him, well, they look more like thick vines. He waved his hand and the long vine blue silver grasses surged, his first spirit yellow ring shone, and tried to bind Zhao Wuji.

All of these happened within several seconds.

A beaming smile appeared on Zhao Wuji's face. Despite being sieged by the group of youths he was letting out a big smile.

"Hahahahahaha!! Good! Come! Come and receive my fists!" The moment he finished saying that, Zhao Wuji raised both of his arms high, crouched down, and brought down his arms to the ground.

The moments later, where he struck, fissures appeared on the surface causing the incoming blue silver grasses, that was surrounding him to try and bind him, to shed into tiny little pieces.

Not only that, his attack was so great that it spread and reached to Xiao Yan, Xun Er, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. It caused their footing to go unbalanced for a moment but in that single moment, Zhao Wuji struck.

Like a f.u.c.k.i.n.g shotgun, his right fist, his entire arm c.o.c.ked back, tiny amount of spirit power gathered in his arm, and in a speed that Xiao Yan almost didn't saw coming, a bronze skinned fist appeared right in front of him.

Xiao Yan's eyes widened in fear as he felt the powerful force from the incoming fist just inches away from his face.

Relying in his instincts, Xiao Yan activated his Purple Demon Eyes, making him able to see the incoming fist moving slow towards him. In that moment, he summoned his spirit, moving his right hand to his mid section, and there he had his spirit appear before him.

Blocking the attack of Zhao Wuji.

*BANG!*

A small shock wave was created the moment Zhao Wuji's fist met the obsidian green Heavy Xuan Ruler of Xiao Yan.

""Xiao Yan/gege!!"" Tang San and co yelled out in concerned.

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth, his feet inserted firmly into the ground the moment Zhao Wuji's fist struck his spirit.

'What the f.u.c.k?! He hits like a f.u.c.k.i.n.g tank!' He thought as he glared at the grinning Zhao Wuji.

Thankfully Xiao Yan's feet inserted into the ground, if he weren't, well, he would have been blown away with a few broken bones due to the great tyrannical strength force of Zhao Wuji.

'Is he using his spirit power? Now? Goddamn it! Why? He shouldn't have used it this early on and would have just gone with merely using his physical strength to test the waters. Also, why am I being targeted?!' Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes, two purple spirit rings appeared underneath him, causing Zhao Wuji's eyes to widened in surprise.

Using that moment of distraction, Xiao Yan gathered his spirit power and heavenly flame, and sent them towards his spirit. One of the purple spirit rings around him lit up.

[First Spirit Ring Ability: Flame Splitting Tsunami]

The entire black dull blade of the Heavy Xuan Ruler was engulfed in green flames, the heat coming out of it caused the surrounding vegetation to quickly turned into ashes.

It was so hot that Zhao Wuji himself had to retreat.

'Now!'

"Eat this! Getsuga Tenshou!" Xiao Yan cried out loud. Bringing down his spirit towards Zhao Wuji. The green flames around the Heavy Xuan Ruler surged out like a tidal wave, no, a tsunami!

Because Zhao Wuji was at point blank range, he wasn't able to escape the attack.

"ARRGGGHHH!" He howled in pain. Zhao Wuji's entire body was bathed in green fiery flames.

'F.U.C.K!!' Zhao Wuji widened his eyes, once again, surprise and shock, gritting his teeth, as he felt the great burning heat coming out of the green flames of Xiao Yan. He felt his skin turning to a crisp and his blood inside evaporating into steam. Despite being a spirit sage, someone that shouldn't easily received harm, especially with his spirit, he was being cooked!

He may be using just 20% of his spirit power to reinforced his strength, defense, endurance and speed but even then that was more than enough to take care and defend himself against a spirit grandmaster!(A/N: Zhao Wuji wasn't informed of what their spirit ranks at this time so he just assumed that Xiao Yan was just a spirit grandmaster. Due to the fact he only saw two purple spirit rings.)

'Looks like I've underestimated the kid. I targeted him first instead of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda kid cause I wanted to test the waters. Who knew that he could tank my attack and struck back with a great deal of firepower, literally, with a spirit ability that uses a strange flame attack that can cause damage to my spirit sage body. Isn't he using some big a.s.s dull sword? Then how the hell can he use some flame attack spirit ability without the spirit rejecting the spirit ring at the first place? Or does his sword have an affinity with the fire attribute?'

He had never encountered this sort of situation before from a twelve year old kid. But he once did by a different person, from a very talented young man 10 years ago.

He was one of the many who was after his a.s.s after the scandal he did with the Spirit Hall.

That young man looked younger than Zhao Wuji at that time by a decade and yet he possessed the same strength as him, a spirit emperor at the time, evenly. It was due to the mysterious flame that he used.

'Wait, is this kid...?' Zhao Wuji's eyes began to narrow once more. Using more of his spirit power and undergoing his beast spirit transformation to resist against the flanes.

'If I remember correctly, that young man's family was under the...'

Turning to his left he saw his examinee, Xun Er, three spirit rings underneath her, his eyes widened once more and mouth slightly at the color scheme of the rings.

Xun Er, just a couple feet away from Zhao Wuji, her once pair of black became orbs of gold, one of her two purple spirit rings lit up.

[First Spirit Ring Ability: Thousand Golden Trigram Palms]

A golden Yin-Yang symbol appeared behind her back with multiple golden symbols surrounding it.

She twirled her body and two arms, her two jade hands turned to palms, her two golden eyes seemed to light up into fiery ambers.

'What the?!' Zhao Wuji cried out inwardly as he felt the burning power coming out of Xun Er's palms.

Suddenly, thousands of golden fiery palms at the size of a small child appeared behind Xun Er. Zhao Wuji's eyes widened even further as he felt the same burning power from Xun Er's at the golden palm projections.

'I'm going to get roasted!' Zhao Wuji thought.

"HAA!" With a war cry, Xun Er simultaneously brought down the thousand golden palms onto the still green inflamed Zhao Wuji.

'This crazy brat!'

Seven spirit rings suddenly appeared underneath Zhao Wuji, and without any hesitation, one of the spirit rings, a hundred year old spirit ring, lit up.

[First Spirit Ring Ability: Motionless Bright King Body]

Zhao Wuji's body suddenly emitted a golden light wave, as a figure of a bear appeared behind him. The golden light, his spirit ring ability, gave him an increased of body defense which helped him take on the thousands of golden palms attacking his body.

Zhao Wuji growled as he prepared to use his second spirit ring ability to counter Xun Er's when he suddenly felt his instincts screaming at him.

Blue silver grass vines suddenly appeared out of the ground and had quickly tied itself around both of his legs and was going further to wrapped itself around his entire body.

'What?!' Zhao Wuji thought in shock.

Suddenly Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Yan appeared surrounding him. With Xiao Wu at his left, who appeared as if she teleported, her yellow and purple spirit rings shone. Zhu Zhuqing, with her two claws out, at Zhao Wuji's back, her two yellow spirit rings simultaneously lit up.

While Xiao Yan, who after secretly digesting a 3rd tier soldier pill to help replenished his spirit power, used the Mysterious Heaven Skill to help reinforced both of his arms strength and his spirit enough to shatter a small building.

He once again activated his first spirit ring and used the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, he looked like a ghost barbarian who suddenly appeared out of thin air from Zhao Wuji's right with his Heavy Xuan Ruler raised up in the air, once again engulfed in green flames, prepared to be brought down to bring pain.

It didn't end there as hundreds of small but deadly hidden weapons were being shot out of nowhere towards Zhao Wuji. Xiao Yan would have gave a thumbs up to Tang San for the support if he wasn't focused on hacking down his spirit to his unofficial teacher.

"...Bloody hell, you brats aren't only monsters. Your also f.u.c.k.i.n.g crazy!" Zhao Wuji cried out loud as he let out a huge beaming smile.

"And I love it!"

Contrary of feeling despair like any normal person, he felt excitement.

For these kids are beyond monsters. Despite working together for the first time, they looked as if they worked alongside each other for years!

They they didn't give him an inch to recover and used any chance to attack him and while supporting the other.

This wasn't what Zhao Wuji had expected for a group of monsters since he started teaching in this academy years ago but now? He finally felt true excitement of teaching these generation of monsterous spirit masters.

"But, don't get ahead of yourselves!" Zhao Wuji shouted as his first purple and second yellow spirit rings simultaneously lit up.

[Third Spirit Ring Ability: Gravity Increase]

Suddenly, Xiao Yan and everyone else felt their bodies getting heavier and slower.

Xiao Yan widened his eyes as he cancelled his spirit ring ability and turned Xun Er, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing and yelled.

"NO! DON'T GO IN! RETREAT!"

Xun Er and the other two girls suddenly felt a shiver in their spines as they all cancelled and tried to back away from the teacher.

Keyword: "Tried."

[Second Spirit Ring Ability: Vigorous Vajra Palm]

'SHIT!' Xiao Yan moved and hugged the waist of Zhu Zhuqing who was the nearest person to him, when she turned to retreat, it was at the direction of Xiao Yan so she was near him. He moved her in a position that he would protect her as he used his spirit Heavy Xuan Ruler to protect them.

*Bang!*

"AAAHHHH!" Numerous screams of pain and agony sounded through the entire area. Three bodies going down was also heard.

Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing hit the ground, hard. Thankfully the Heavy Xuan Ruler negated most of the attack of Zhao Wuji. Zhu Zhuqing was mostly uninjured, thanks to being shielded, while Xiao Yan had a couple of cuts and broken bones in his body.

While Xun Er had used her heavenly flame to cover her whole body in a golden light barrier like skin to help protect her. Unfortunately she used most of her spirit power against Zhao Wuji and because of that, she wasn't able to defend herself against the hard ground. And due to great impact caused by Zhao Wuji, it caused some of her bones to fracture.

Xiao Wu was fast enough to use her third spirit ring and was able to escape in time to teleport at the back with Tang San and Ning Rongrong.

Tang San, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong stared in horror at the sight.

Ning Rongrong turned her head, feeling anxious, and said.

"No wait! We're nearly done! The stick only has one-third of it left..." That caused everyone to perked up their ears with both of Tang San and Xiao Wu's eyes to brightened.

This caused Tang San's eyes to turned purple and Xiao Wu to get a soldier pill out from the former's storage device. They both didn't speak but they were already determined to endure further to pass!

Zhao Wuji let a smirk appear on his face as he looked at what remains of the team of monsters. He knew in his heart that they had already passed but for the sake of appearances, he would also continue with the exam.

Just as he crouched down and was about to launched himself to subdue the group, a sudden green wall made out of flames suddenly appeared right in front of him.

"What?!" Zhao Wuji yelled as he sharply turned towards Xiao Yan. Who was now standing up straight, his spirit in his right hand and was pointed to the ground, he was looking at him with a deadly serious expression. His eyes seemed to glow in a ethereal demonic green light.

"Oh? So you want some more boy?" Zhao Wuji said with a frowning expression.

But Xiao Yan didn't reply. Instead, using an unknown burst of flash like speed, he arrived crouched down at where Xun Er had landed.

Slowly and caringly, he cradled her broken body with his arms. Xun Er looked pale and red on the face, she opened her mouth to speak but Xiao Yan silence her mouth with a pill to the mouth.

Patting her silky long black hair, Xiao Yan moved his head to her ear and said.

"Don't worry. I'll end this now. So just wait for me okay?" Then Xiao Yan pulled back his head and showed a soft and gentle smile at Xun Er.

Looking up at Xiao Yan, Xun Er couldn't help but feel that same nostalgic feeling swelling deep inside her c.h.e.s.t.

Shaking her head, Xun Er returned the smile and said.

"Hm, Xun Er will wait."

Xiao Yan smiled and in that same burst of speed, he arrived at the area where he and Zhu Zhuqing had landed.

He slowly dropped Xun Er in a situation position by Zhu Zhuqing and flashing them a smile he was gone.

He reappeared once more at the now silent and patient Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji stared at the boy who suddenly appeared, more like he teleported, in front of him. He opened his mouth to speak but Xiao Yan cut him off.

"Let's end this." Xiao Yan raised his Heavy Xuan Ruler c.h.e.s.t length horizontally. His left hand was touching on the guard of the dull huge blade. Suddenly, the whole blade lit up in green.

The surrounding temperature rose and instantly the grass around 5 meters spherically around Xiao Yan had immediately turned to ashes and the ground quickly becoming dry.

Slowly, he moved his left hand from the guard towards the tip, the green light glowed even brighter and the heat coming out of Xiao Yan increased to the point that the ground around him turned to magma.

Everyone's eyes was on Xiao Yan. Shock and disbelief filled their eyes as their heart questioned how was he doing this.

'When did Xiao Yan/gege able to do this?' Tang San, Xiao Wu and Xun Er thought. As even they haven't saw Xiao Yan doing something like that before.

Suddenly, when his hand reached the tip of the Heavy Xuan Ruler, his hair shadowed his eyes, he opened his mouth and said out loud, with a blank emotionless voice. It caused everyone that heard him to suddenly feel like their body was set on on fire, even Zhao Wuji!

"I, Xiao Yan, successor of the *#*#$#$&#!?#, now release you from your restraints."

"Let my anger, wrath and flames befell on you, creations in this world, to turned to ashes..."

"Come, Ryuujin Jakka!(Longsword of the Remnant Flame!)"

Suddenly, everyone saw a green sun.
