Chapter 188: Battle with Yu Yuanzhen, the God-Slaying Spear Emerges!

With the sound of claws ripping through the air, a dark golden light instantly slashed across the sky.

Lin Yu's right hand, equipped with the Dark Gold Dreadclaw, transformed into the Ancient Dragon Claw as it countered Yu Yuanzhen's oncoming punch. The sharp, dark golden claws tore through the protective soul power on Yu Yuanzhen's arm and sank deep into his flesh.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere!

"What!?"

The intense pain in his right arm shocked Yu Yuanzhen's face.

How could this be!? This mere Soul Saint-level boy tore his protective soul power, wielded by a Level 95 Title Douluo!

But no matter how unbelievable it seemed, the reality couldn't be denied. If he continued punching forward, his arm would be severed before his fist even reached the brat in front of him!

Thus, as Lin Yu's dark golden claws dug into the flesh of his right arm, Yu Yuanzhen roared in fury and immediately summoned his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul. His body surged with soul power as he quickly retreated.

"Roar!!"

With a flash of lightning and a deafening dragon roar from behind him, Yu Yuanzhen's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul fully manifested and then fused into his body.

Once his martial soul had possessed him, his right arm exploded with powerful soul force and began to swell. Hardened dark blue scales rapidly grew along his arm, slowing the cutting force of Lin Yu's claws.

Taking advantage of the moment, Yu Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and yanked his arm back, preparing to retreat.

"Trying to run? Not so fast!!"

Seeing Yu Yuanzhen trying to flee after attacking first, Lin Yu sneered, retracting his five claws before stepping forward. His hand clenched into a fist, and with a sudden surge of power, he launched a punch.

"Mountain and Sea Fist Technique: Fist of the Overlord!"

With a resounding boom, Lin Yu's fist slammed into Yu Yuanzhen's chest.

The power of his strike—quadruple that of a top-tier Beast Martial Soul Soul Saint—exploded against Yu Yuanzhen's chest, further enhanced by the Mountain and Sea Fist Technique.

Even in his martial soul possession state, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't withstand this blow. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.

His body shot out like a silver-blue shadow, crashing violently into a rock garden outside the hall, shattering the stone into pieces.

All of this happened in just three seconds.

From the perspective of Dugu Bo, Ning Fengzhi, and the others, it seemed like Yu Yuanzhen had charged at Lin Yu in a rage, only to be punched back and sent flying into the rock garden.

"This...!!"

Seeing this unfold, Dugu Bo, Ning Fengzhi, and the others were left in shock.

No way! Yu Yuanzhen was no match for Lin Yu. He charged in, only to be punched away!?

"Yu Yuanzhen, didn't you come here to teach me a lesson on behalf of your worthless son? With strength like that, you're clearly out of your depth. A useless father for a useless son—quite fitting!"

After sending Yu Yuanzhen flying with a single punch, Lin Yu mocked him coldly.

"You little brat, you've enraged me!!"

From beneath the shattered rock garden, Yu Yuanzhen's furious roar echoed.

In the next instant, a blinding silver-blue light erupted from him, followed by a thunderous dragon roar. Suddenly, a massive Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon with wings burst from the rubble, soaring into the sky.

"Brat! I was just careless before. If you've got the guts, come out now!!"

Hearing Yu Yuanzhen's angry challenge in his Martial Soul True Body state, Lin Yu didn't flinch. He merely sneered as he dashed out of the hall.

"Come out? As if I'd ever be afraid of you!"

"Golden Dragon Martial Soul, Possession!!"

Once outside, Lin Yu summoned his Golden Dragon martial soul, entering the martial soul possession state. At the same time, he unleashed his external soul bone, the Wind and Thunder Wings.

His body grew taller, muscles swelled, golden scales covered his entire form, and horns sprouted from his head. His eyes turned into gold vertical pupils, while a fearsome dragon aura, several times stronger than Yu Yuanzhen's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, erupted from him.

Lin Yu then summoned his second martial soul, the Chaos Green Lotus, activating its sixth and seventh soul skills. In an instant, the God-Slaying Spear and the Yellow Earth Banner materialized in his hands.

Though in the original Douluo Dalu, it's said that using two martial souls at once is impossible, Lin Yu discovered that, like dual soul rings, the limitation was due to the body's weakness.

However, with Lin Yu's physical strength, he could easily handle both the Chaos Green Lotus and the Golden Dragon martial souls. He could even wield his Dual Pupils martial soul without issue.

In no time, after fully summoning his Golden Dragon martial soul, Lin Yu held the God-Slaying Spear in hand, with the Yellow Earth Banner suspended above his head. His Wind and Thunder Wings propelled him upward, launching into the sky.

"First Soul Skill: Purple Spirit Weakening Halo!" "Dual Pupils: Confinement!"

As Lin Yu flew toward Yu Yuanzhen, he narrowed his eyes, activating the first soul skill of his Dual Pupils martial soul. The Purple Spirit Weakening Halo enveloped Yu Yuanzhen, while a misty silver light shot from Lin Yu's eyes, imprisoning Yu Yuanzhen's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon from midair.

With a surge of speed from his Wind and Thunder Wings, Lin Yu instantly appeared above Yu Yuanzhen, his God-Slaying Spear raised high. Channeling his boundless power into his arms, he brought the spear down like a club.

"Take this—Sky-Splitting Smash!!"

"ROAR!!"

With the combined effect of the Purple Spirit Weakening Halo and the confinement from Lin Yu's Dual Pupils, along with the oppressive dragon aura from Lin Yu's Golden Dragon, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't move. He took the full force of Lin Yu's attack, the God-Slaying Spear crashing into him.

In a painful roar, Yu Yuanzhen's massive body was sent flying, crashing into a forest behind Dugu Bo's estate. The impact flattened several trees and left a massive crater in the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

With a flap of his Wind and Thunder Wings, Lin Yu shot down toward the fallen Yu Yuanzhen. In the blink of an eye, he appeared above him once more.

This time, with no concerns about damaging Dugu Bo's estate, Lin Yu wielded his God-Slaying Spear with abandon, using the Heaven Piercing Spear Technique. With a surge of black energy, he thrust the sharp tip of the God-Slaying Spear toward Yu Yuanzhen's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon form.
