Something unexpected happened after his punch landed on Tang Wulin’s shoulder. Although Tang Wulin’s left shoulder was shattered, he felt a hollow sensation from Tang Wulin as if his whole body was hollow inside. A large portion of the energy from his punch vanished. It seemed to have been devoured by Tang Wulin. The Golden Dragon Spear in Tang Wulin’s hand burst forth with a brilliant light at this moment.
The golden red color which devoured his blood essence power suddenly intensified. A terrifying vibrating force burst forth with a series of explosions. A Ruheng realized with fright that he was unable to maintain his grip on the spear’s tip even with his strength.
It seemed that when Tang Wulin’s left shoulder shattered, his Golden Dragon Spear had stabbed A Ruheng’s chest amidst the vibration although it was gripped by A Ruheng.
“Poof!”
The sharp spear’s tip penetrated into A Ruheng’s body. A Ruheng shouted and the golden red glow on his body burst forth as it attempted to push out the Golden Dragon Spear.
However, the suction force of the Golden Dragon Spear intensified instantly. The energy kept flowing out of his body and surged into Tang Wulin’s at the same time. A golden figure pounced from behind and wrapped itself around his body. It opened its mouth and bit the back of A Ruheng’s neck. The Goldsong!
A Ruheng and Tang Wulin came into contact. They were only separated by the length of the Golden Dragon Spear.
Who would have expected Tang Wulin to turn the tides of the battle when he was under such an overwhelming disadvantage? His Golden Dragon Spear had truly penetrated A Ruheng’s body.
The Golden Dragon Blast!
Tang Wulin’s gaze burned bright. A Ruheng retracted his right punch. He wanted to throw another punch, but he was affected by the Goldsong. He tried to break free with all his might. Under his terrifying sun prince’s strength, Goldsong’s body was torn into two. However, it was then that Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon Blast reached its peak.
“Poof!”
The Golden Dragon Spear was forcibly pushed into A Ruheng’s chest. It stabbed into his massive heart.
The Golden Dragon Spear immediately turned red. A Ruheng’s terrifying strength began to shrink like a deflating balloon.
“Roar!” A sonorous dragon’s roar came from Tang Wulin’s mouth. The Bluesilver Emperor vines surged wildly and twisted around A Ruheng’s body. A Ruheng’s vigorous blood essence was being devoured by the Golden Dragon Spear into Tang Wulin’s body.
It was stunning. The blood essence power was overwhelming. It was so formidable that Tang Wulin could not even control it. It surged directly against the Golden Dragon King seal within him.
Tang Wulin’s Dragon Core within his body voraciously absorbed vast amounts of the bloodline energy. It was pumping fiercely and his own bloodline aura grew wildly. Every blood vessel bulged under his skin, and they were golden red.
His meridians began to split open and blood mists sprayed all over him. The eleventh Golden Dragon King seal inside Tang Wulin had loosened as cracks began to appear on it. The Golden Dragon King’s essence, filled with a ferocious and diabolical air, began to ooze out like strands of silk.
He flapped his golden dragon wings behind him wildly. They barely lifted his body as it fell together with A Ruheng’s from the skies and they crashed heavily onto the ground. The Golden Dragon Blast was unleashed to its fullest extent. Under the enhancement of his Bluesilver Emperor, clusters of halos erupted.
“Little disciple brother,” A Ruheng suddenly opened his mouth to speak. His voice was slightly strained.
“Hmm?” Tang Wulin’s mind cleared.
“You lied to me,” A Ruheng’s tone was slightly peculiar, although it did not sound like he was in much pain.
‘You lied...’
Tang Wulin never expected his disciple brother to utter such words.
Yes! He had lied to A Ruheng. Since the beginning of the match, A Ruheng had fallen into Tang Wulin’s trap.
How could Tang Wulin not see that he was no match for A Ruheng if it was purely a contest of strength? The Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique had once placed the Sect at the pinnacle of the continent’s soul masters’ realm. He was not an opponent who could be easily dealt with.
A Ruheng could be described as the product of a hundred-year accumulation by the entire Body Sect.
In fact, from the very beginning, Tang Wulin had been scheming against his disciple brother. He had not wasted his time on Demon Island.
In truth, he had been concealing his Golden Dragon Spear.
After exchanging blows with the Dragon Slaying Saber, his Golden Dragon Spear had become progressively sharper. The razor-sharp object was his Golden Dragon Spear Body.
Tang Wulin had been concealing this point. Up until the final moment, when A Ruheng thought he was about to achieve victory, Tang Wulin made use of his left arm and shoulder to seize the opportunity.
When he was attacked on the left shoulder, he unleashed the sixth move of the Golden Dragon Nine Moves, the Golden Dragon Bides which deflected most of the attack’s force. The Golden Dragon Blast and the Golden Dragon Spear were unleashed with a burst at this moment.
He relied on his divine tool’s devouring ability and created a winning opportunity.
In the end, A Ruheng had underestimated the Golden Dragon Spear’s sharpness. Although his Innate Secret Technique was overbearing, it was unable to stop the sharp Golden Dragon Spear.
There was no gleam on Tang Wulin’s Golden Dragon Spear. It was not that he could not unleash it. He withheld it on purpose. The manifested spear’s gleam’s sharpness was inferior to the actual spear. Only the actual spear could reveal its sharpness after being polished. At the same time, he misled his opponent.
On Demon Island, attitude was not the only thing Tang Wulin learned. He learned to use everything which was applicable on the battlefield. Before the match began, he had observed his disciple brother beforehand.
The Body Sect’s Innate Secret Technique was very difficult to cultivate. In addition, his disciple brother’s cultivation base was truly far above his. He was absolutely certain that in cultivation base alone, he was no match for his disciple brother. If he wanted to defeat A Ruheng, he would have to search for an opportune moment to fully unleash his strength.
A Ruheng’s background came up in his mind. His disciple brother had cultivated in the Body Sect since he was young. He seldom came into contact with the outside world. Even if he had ample experience in combat, he might not necessarily understand human emotions.
Since the beginning of the match, Tang Wulin had actually withheld thirty percent of his strength. Otherwise, he could actually surpass A Ruheng in terms of agility. It was precisely this that made A Ruheng fall into Tang Wulin’s trap subsequently. In the end, Tang Wulin seized the opportunity to use the Golden Dragon Spear’s sharpness and ability to devour to land a sure-kill attack and turn his defeat into a victory.
In turn, Tang Wulin also paid a high price. He only had this opportunity by intentionally breaking his own left arm. If he did not have a strong will, it would not be easy for him to defeat A Ruheng. He had to maintain his peak attacking power while sustaining his broken left arm.
This was why when A Ruheng lost the match, he had called him a liar.
The instant upset left the entire stadium silent. Nobody would have expected that the Golden Dragon King had the ability to turn his defeat into a victory against all odds.
The silence went on for a few seconds before the cheers burst out like a geyser.
“Golden Dragon King! Golden Dragon King! Golden Dragon King!”
The deafening cheers seemed capable of overturning the entire competition stage. There were many who supported Tang Wulin before this. Due to Tang Wulin being at a disadvantage, they felt like the vanquished all this while. At this very moment, the inhibition could finally be unleashed. For a long time, the cheers encircled Tang Wulin.
He stood straight. Although he had lost an arm and half of his body was covered in blood, he raised his Golden Dragon Spear with pride.
On the screen, the giant word ‘champion’ and the illusory shadow of a crown that appeared above Tang Wulin’s head all indicated that he was the strongest contestant in this year’s competition.
