Chapter 1536
All of the staff projections were completely unpredictable in their trajectories, and not even through the use of spiritual power could one determine where the staff projections were going to strike.
A serious look appeared on Tang Wulin\'s face as he stopped in mid-air, and bluish-purple dragon scales instantly appeared all over his skin, enveloping his entire body before taking on a mirror-like appearance.
This was his Golden Dragon Tyrant Body that was enhanced by his Infernal Lightning Vine, and at the same time, his dragon\'s repulse erupted out of his body as a layer of bluish-purple light.
"Boom!"
"Ah! Yu Longyue hasn\'t attempted to evade or retaliate; he\'s allowed himself to be struck by the Coiling Dragon Staff! He\'s been swept up into the air, and it seems that he\'s temporarily lost control over his own body! Hold on, why has another Coiling Dragon Staff appeared in the air? What a powerful attack; it\'s even managed to create a dimensional rift!"
Just as the stunned Ai Fei was describing, right as Tang Wulin was swept up into the air by the Coiling Dragon Staff that was rising up from below, an identical staff appeared up above before crashing down in an even more devastating fashion than the earlier Battling Heaven and Earth.
This was the second Unyielding Staff Technique, Shaking Heaven and Earth!
Tang Wulin only had time to shield himself with his arms before he was smashed out of the sky, then crashed down onto the ground with a resounding boom, having been completely embedded into the earth from the waist down like a nail.
Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events. The two of them had appeared to be evenly-matched mere moments ago, yet it looked as if Tang Wulin could lose at any moment now!
Even Ai Fei had paused in his commentary. He had to speak in Qiangu Zhangting\'s favor, but as a professional commentator, he was very much looking forward to this battle as well, and he definitely didn\'t want to see Tang Wulin lose so quickly.
Even Qiangu Zhangting himself was rather dumbstruck. In his eyes, there was no way that Tang Wulin would lose so easily; it was clear that he hadn\'t even tried to block that attack!
Just as Qiangu Zhangting was wondering if he had won the match, Tang Wulin\'s voice suddenly rang out beside his ears. "That kinda tickled; is there more where that came from?"
He was then greeted by the sight of Tang Wulin leaping out of the ground.
Tang Wulin wiped away the blood from the corner of his lips, then made a provoking hand gesture in Qiangu Zhangting\'s direction.
Even Qiangu Dongfeng was rather stunned to see this. He was naturally well aware of just how powerful Shaking Heaven and Earth was. While unleashing the Unyielding Staff Techniques, Qiangu Zhangting\'s combat prowess was definitely comparable to that of a Hyper Douluo.
However, not only had Tang Wulin withstood the attack, it seemed that he hadn\'t even suffered any substantial injuries; just how insane was his physical resistance? One had to realize that he still hadn\'t even donned his battle armor!
At this moment, Tang Wulin\'s heart was filled with excitement.
Following that first clash, his body had been paralyzed by the law destructive power of Qiangu Zhangting\'s Battling Heaven and Earth. However, in that instant, he could clearly sense that the power of laws destroyed by the Coiling Dragon Staff had all surged into his body as if it had found a new home.
This wasn\'t Rainbow Law; it was the purest essential laws of the Douluo Continent plane. As the one who had been blessed by the plane, the power of laws naturally had great affinity with Tang Wulin.
Under normal circumstances, the power of laws would only allow Tang Wulin to better understand and use the laws of this world.
In a sense, the power of laws was the life force of a plane, and even though the plane had offered its blessings to Tang Wulin, there was no way it would bestow its own life force upon him.
However, the Unyielding Staff Techniques drew power from destroying laws, and the destroyed power of laws would dissipate after being used instead of being absorbed by Qiangu Zhangting.
This was the main flaw of the Unyielding Staff Techniques: there was no way it would be acknowledged by the plane.
Hence, all of the destroyed power of laws naturally flocked toward Tang Wulin.
This was why Qiangu Zhangting had felt that the power of laws he had drawn upon seemed to have disappeared during his clash with Tang Wulin. In reality, it hadn\'t disappeared; it had simply been absorbed by Tang Wulin.
This pure power of laws wouldn\'t directly enhance Tang Wulin\'s powers, but it would improve his affinity with the Douluo Continent plane, thereby assisting him immensely when it came to understanding and using the power of heaven and earth.
There was no way to absorb the power of laws like this through normal cultivation, and it was very difficult to absorb the elemental laws of tribulation lightning, so Tang Wulin naturally wasn\'t going to pass up on such a brilliant opportunity. He was desperately trying to better his understanding of laws in order to integrate his abilities to create more Dragon Emperor Restriction Techniques, and this was undoubtedly going to assist him greatly in that endeavor.
Thus, he had taken a risk and allowed himself to be struck by Qiangu Zhangting\'s second attack.
However, the Unyielding Staff Techniques were truly formidable; Tang Wulin\'s internal organs were currently throbbing, and his arms were also in severe pain.
However, the feeling of the broken planar laws flowing into his body was extremely wonderful. His spiritual power had already reached the mental manifestation level, so he could clearly sense that even his own Rainbow Law was undergoing some subtle changes. All of his soul spirits were delighted by these changes as well.
For his soul spirits, the power of planar laws was the best form of nourishment that could trigger evolutions within them.
After cultivating to a certain level, all beings had to undergo a qualitative transformation following sufficient quantitative accumulation. This qualitative change often took place in a split second, but it was extremely difficult to trigger, and the power of laws was the perfect catalyst.
For the ordinary beings of the abyssal plane, they craved the life energy of the Douluo Continent plane, but for a planar ruler like the Holy Lord, what he desired to the most was to devour the planar laws of the Douluo Continent. In doing so, he would be able to trigger evolution within himself.
Through his clashes with Qiangu Zhangting, Tang Wulin was able to absorb the very thing that even a planar ruler desired, albeit only in small quantities, and it was exactly because of this that Tang Wulin had decided to prolong this battle rather than crush Qiangu Zhangting as quickly as possible.
His physical constitution had been enhanced to an insane level by his congenital secret method and Golden Dragon King bloodline, and that had allowed him to withstand Qiangu Zhangting\'s attack.
Upon witnessing Tang Wulin\'s provocative hand gesture, Qiangu Zhangting\'s first reaction was incredulity rather than fury.
How was it possible that someone had remained largely unscathed in the face of his Shaking Heaven and Earth even without using their battle armor? This simply didn\'t make sense!
Was this guy even a human anymore? How was his defensive prowess this insane?
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, and his dragon core thumped violently, sending scorching blood essence coursing through his entire body to repress his injuries.
"Your staff is very weak!" he taunted in a mocking voice.
He was goading Qiangu Zhangting into attacking so he could continue to absorb more planar laws.
A cold light flashed through Qiangu Zhangting\'s eyes, and he suddenly hurled his Coiling Dragon Staff directly toward Tang Wulin. The Coiling Dragon Staff began to rapidly expand mid-flight, and the dragon carved onto the staff seemed to have sprung to life as it transformed into a giant white dragon that coiled itself around the staff.
The laws around the Coiling Dragon Staff began to twist and warp violently, and as they shattered, they were devoured by the giant dragon around the staff. As a result, the Coiling Dragon Staff expanded even further in size and began to glow brightly, crashing down from above like a massive pillar of light.
This was not an attack that Tang Wulin could directly withstand!
A sense of peril welled up in his heart, and he immediately sprang away to the side like lightning.
However, right at this moment, a burst of powerful suction force erupted from the Coiling Dragon Staff, locking around Tang Wulin like a set of invisible shackles, making him extremely slow and sluggish.
