Chapter 1511 - Skyfiend Soulscorch Curse
Despite being a specter, Lingfeng's physical capabilities seemed far from Long Renshe's, especially with how sickly he looked. However, the audience only came to understand how much power he could unleash when the fight started for real, especially with how enraged and desperate he was. As the five seven-star dragons came bearing down like mountains and started breathing fire, Lingfeng and his Soulfiend leaped into the air, still exuding black miasma. The dragons opened their mouths wide and breathed black and crimson fire, raining down a river of flames from above. Tens of thousands of flame dragons emerged from the streams and charged toward the two black figures.
The fire dragons exploded, letting out a bright light as they unleashed fatal damage across the entire area. The grand karmic bloodflare could easily spread across one's body the moment they got hit with it. It even burned away blood itself, making it a toxic kind of flame. These poisonous flames had now spread throughout the entire battlefield. Then the dragons immediately flew behind Lingfeng and the Soulfiend to attack them from behind.
"Didn't you look really badass just now? Don't just keep running like a coward!" said one of the dragons. It charged toward the back of the Soulfiend with its horns. The audience nervously watched as it closed the distance, only for the Soulfiend to turn back right before the collision. It had been blocking the flames for Lingfeng the entire time, and with it evading, Lingfeng faced the huge dragon himself.
With a cold look, he tossed tens of thousands of blood needles toward the dragon that were linked to his hands through blood threads. This was the upgraded form of Heartpiercer Soulblade, Heartpiercer Soulneedles! The needles and threads were so fine that people couldn't see it from afar. Not even the dragon was able to notice it, despite being so close. Its huge body crashed into Lingfeng and the Soulfiend, sending them slamming to the ground. Lingfeng stabilized himself and gave his hand a tug. The needles that only he could see had spread across the dragon's entire body and continued burrowing their way toward its sea of consciousness.
Right away, the dragon howled in pain. Only two people across the entire sun had a fourth imperial soul, making Lingfeng among the most threatening people on the battlefield. Not to mention, the blood-colored flames that came from his vita spread through the threads and reached the dragon, igniting it. Thanks to the needles latching onto it, the dragon couldn't easily shake off the attack. This was an enhanced Infernal Soul Curse, Skyfiend Soulscorch Curse! Having those flames burn in one's sea of consciousness was a disaster for lifebound beasts.
Lingfeng had an edge when it came to soul attacks, thanks to his level and astralforce control, but he also faced some drawbacks. Faced with enemies a few levels above him, his relative weakness would be magnified a few times more. However, thanks to his waste pill bender that came at a huge cost to his health, his level wasn’t that far off from Long Renshe's—he was now a twelfth-level constellier! Though he had no doubt eroded his foundations in some measure, his stubborn gaze showed that he had no regrets. In fact, this was the very day when he would vent all the pain he had endured!
The rapid-fire attacks caused the crimson flame to engulf one of the dragons whole, causing it to shake and turn in agonizing pain. It made for quite an eerie sight as it wasn't being harmed on the surface, but rather in its soul. The next instant, the other four dragons and Long Renshe came bearing down toward him.
"Looks like you're quite a weird specter that turned to soul cultivation instead!" As Long Renshe spoke, he thrust with his spear in a manner similar to Ye Chen, going straight for Lingfeng's throat as he used his seventh-realm divine art, Umbral Meteor. All of the air and light around the spear seemed to twist as a result of the suction, then it gathered at the tip of the spear. The suction generated from the move made it seem like Lingfeng would be sucked in and impaled without Long Renshe even having to move.
Coupled with the seventh-realm divine art, the four dragons unleashed their ability, Flaming Rainstorm. The gigantic dragon horns could be temporarily launched. They spread into millions of needle spikes, so many that they blocked out the entire sky. The entire barrage was unleashed toward Lingfeng and his Soulfiend.
The Ninedragon Army watched Lingfeng in his perilous moment with held breaths. Many seniors began loudly cheering for him in unison, but it appeared that their worry was for naught! Long Renshe's third eye wasn’t giving him much of an edge at all. Lingfeng dragged the gigantic dragon along using his needles and threads; the more it struggled, the more its soul hurt. It was already at its breaking point with a large amount of crimson flare having entered its body. Though it initially didn't think it would be a big deal, now it knew that even a soul attack alone could potentially kill a dragon.
