Chapter 148 Long Aotian Challenges Again_2

This also proved that she had already activated her Brain Martial Spirit.

"Vina, listen to my advice, give up!"

"To be honest, I have comprehended a new Battle Skill with astonishing power. I find it terrifying even thinking about it."

Long Aotian was still earnestly persuading Vina.

Vina shook her head slightly, "Long Aotian, you are not who you were before, and I am not the same as I used to be either. Let's begin!"

Jinpeng, upon receiving the signal, announced loudly, "The match begins!"

As Jinpeng's words echoed, Qin Xiao squinted his eyes slightly. He clearly saw Long Aotian slowly walking towards Vina with an imposing aura.

When Long Aotian was less than ten meters away from Vina, his second soul ring lit up instantly under his feet, and a clanging sound emanated from his body.

Then, his right arm twisted and deformed, turning into a dark golden Long Knife. His left arm also deformed, turning into a dark golden hammer.

He bellowed, "Golden God's Wrath!" With a step forward, he reached in front of Vina, sweeping the Long Knife and hammer towards her from left and right, with a terrifying edge that seemed to tear the air apart.

Vina took a deep breath and yelled out, "Wild Wind!"

She thrust forward, and countless Wind Elements immediately coalesced, forming a green tornado containing strong wind blades that enveloped both her and Long Aotian in an instant.

Ting ting ting.

The wind blades struck against Long Aotian's Long Knife and hammer, shaking him violently and making it impossible for him to maintain his attacking stance.

Moved by the situation, he immediately chose to retreat.

However, Vina's wind blade tornado still engulfed him.

"Demon Ape Change!"

Long Aotian roared, as his body began to undergo peculiar changes. His whole body slowly bulged, becoming even more robust than before.

But that wasn't all, as his third soul ring lit up, and a layer of dark golden luster suddenly appeared on the surface of his skin. It seemed to be making his body more resilient, akin to metalizing his body, but evidently, it was more high-end.

Dark Gold Force!

In that moment, all of Long Aotian's attributes had greatly increased, and he finally shattered the green wind blade tornado.

Only...

Vina had already retreated several tens of meters away without his knowledge.

And he saw that Vina had her arms crossed in front of her, her lips trembling as if she was about to unleash another ability.

"Ice!"

Vina forcefully pushed with the arms crossed in front of her chest, and streams of white air carrying an astonishing chill surged towards Long Aotian.

"What the hell is this!?"

Long Aotian looked at Vina's attack, completely unable to comprehend.

But in the next moment, the biting cold air instantly transformed into sharp icicle arrows clustered densely like rain.

"Goodness gracious, it can also change form?"

Long Aotian was deeply shaken.

Vina, hearing this from a distance, looked somewhat embarrassed.

In fact, her intention was to directly manipulate the Water Element into ice.

However, as her abilities were not that strong yet, she needed a transformation process, hence the prior mist.

But even so, it was enough to give Long Aotian a hard time.

The dense rain of ice spikes was impossible for Long Aotian to fully avoid.

He could only dodge to prevent his vital points from being struck.

Still, the ice spikes left numerous cuts on his body.

"Hiss..."

He winced and his face twitched with pain.

...

"Hiss..."

"What's the situation?"

Jinpeng, watching the battle from afar, couldn't help but inhale sharply.

His eyes were tightly focused on the distant battlefield, and his heart went cold.

Had Long Aotian actually fallen into a decline?

This scene was completely different from what he had imagined.

Normally, it should have been Long Aotian thoroughly overwhelming Vina, but the result was the exact opposite.

At this moment, Long Aotian was being suppressed by Vina in the fight.

"Sect Master, can you tell me what exactly happened?"

He could only seek answers to his confusion from Poison Not Dead.

Poison Not Dead smiled faintly, "Haven't I said before that not only has Long Aotian had some insights, Vina has also reaped abundant gains. But you didn't believe it, did you?"

"Could it be that Vina has acquired a decent soul bone this time? To exert such power, it must be at least 50,000 years old, right?"

Jinpeng had already opened his own mind, constantly guessing.

Poison Not Dead just slowly shook his head, "That's not it."

"Do you really think that 50,000-year-old soul bones are as common as dirt? We've searched for so long and haven't found a suitable one for Vina and the others, do you think I could just go out and by luck find them one?"

"Then what's the matter?"

"With ice and wind that aren't part of one's own martial soul powers... well, not entirely. Vina's other martial soul is Snow Lotus, which also uses the attribute of ice, but she hasn't activated her martial soul now."

Jinpeng felt that he couldn't figure it out.

"Forget it, your knowledge is just so limited. I won't let you guess anymore."

Poison Not Dead suddenly found it a bit dull and waved his hand, saying: "What you're seeing is the effect of Vina comprehending our Sect Body-Merging Battle Skill: Unity of Heaven and Man."

"What?"

"Does Unity of Heaven and Man have such effects?"

Jinpeng was shocked again.

"The fact that you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You should know that once a person masters Unity of Heaven and Man, they will combine it with their own martial soul to produce some peculiar attack methods."

"Vina is amazing, she can communicate directly with the various elements between heaven and earth, harness these elements to form a variety of powers for attacks."

"The hurricane you saw was created by her communicating with the Wind Element between heaven and earth. And those ice spikes are the result of communicating with the Ice Element. Of course, we can see that Vina's grasp of this ability is not very skillful yet; the ice element solidified a little slowly, and she first released the chill."

"This, this, this..."

Jinpeng didn't know what to say anymore.

Reality is often more outrageous than one's imagination.

He would rather believe that Vina had obtained a soul bone with elemental properties, which sounded more acceptable to him.

"Hehe, isn't it a nice surprise, quite unexpected?"

What a 'nice surprise'... Jinpeng said, "I was actually quite scared."

Then he sighed, "Who would have thought that Vina, this little girl, would also have such talent.

She was silent before, but now she has shocked everyone with her sudden realization. I underestimated her because she hadn't grasped Unity of Heaven and Man for so long. Now that I think about it, I really shouldn't have.

This could be considered a case of accumulating a lot before making a breakthrough. Moreover, it looks like her abilities might even surpass Long Aotian's, and in the future, she could possibly catch up with Qin Xiao."

Unconsciously, he had already started to fill with expectations for Vina.

However.

At the next moment, Poison Not Dead threw a bucket of cold water on him with a cold tone.

"Heh, old buddy, not to dampen your spirits, but no matter how outstanding Vina is, she has no chance of comparing to Qin Xiao.

If you insist on making a comparison, then it's Qin Xiao who is more outstanding."

"I don't think so?" Jinpeng was unconvinced again.

"Vina's ability is very remarkable, controlling various elements. Just think about it, don't you find it terrifying?

Starting today, she can no longer be considered a Control Soul Master, but an Assault Soul Master, and a very fierce one at that. I admit Qin Xiao is also very impressive, but if we train Vina properly, she might catch up to him..."

Poison Not Dead: "Your hopes really know no bounds...

If I tell you that Vina was able to comprehend Unity of Heaven and Man thanks to Qin Xiao's guidance, then what?"

"Oh, so that's how it is. I was wondering how Vina suddenly had such insights. But what does that matter? Guidance is just guidance, like Long Aotian understanding Unity of Heaven and Man; it was also under my guidance, but I haven't grasped his abilities...

Jinpeng argued without conceding: "It is common for a student to surpass the teacher, and the fact that Vina was guided by Qin Xiao doesn't make her inferior to him.

I think you understand what I mean, right?"

Poison Not Dead nodded, "I understand, but there's one more thing I'd like to say.

Do you think there's a possibility that when Qin Xiao was guiding Vina, he had already mastered Unity of Heaven and Man himself?

And moreover, that the Battle Skill he mastered has an even stronger effect than Vina's?"
