Chapter 1704
Mo Zihong had made the correct judgment in determining that Ling Zichen was indeed the weakest member of the Shrek Academy camp, but what was weak was her body, not her overall power.
Mo Zihong was able to seize the advantage as she had been insufficiently prepared and instantly fallen under his control. However, now that Mo Zihong was switching to soundwave attacks, he was able to force back Ling Zichen, but his control over her also vanished as a result.
Upon regaining control over her own body, Ling Zichen was certainly no slouch.
She raised her short spears, and two beams of light erupted out of the spears, reaching Mo Zihong in an instant.
Mo Zihong was alarmed by how fast the attack was, but he reacted very quickly, unleashing a pair of soundwaves that struck the oncoming beams of light with unerring accuracy.
However, the resulting explosion from the clash was far more powerful than Mo Zihong had anticipated, and he was forced into retreat by the devastating shockwaves. Right at this moment, a pink figure appeared directly above him.
Ling Zichen's mecha was capable of breaking the sound barrier, and it was putting that speed on full display.
Countless specks of light emerged all over Ling Zichen's body, then descended toward Mo Zihong from all directions.
With Ling Zichen's fiery temper, she was on the verge of erupting into a blind rage after being controlled for so long. Now that she had been given a chance to retaliate, she wasn't holding back in the slightest.
Her mecha's forte lied in its speed and offensive prowess, and this was being perfectly reflected here. Meanwhile, Mo Zihong was struggling to identify whether this was even a mecha or a suit of battle armor, and the storm of light was already unavoidable for him now.
Thus, he immediately arrived at a decision as his seventh soul ring lit up, and he tossed his Demonic Zither up into the air before instantly fusing as one with it.
The Demonic Zither immediately began to expand, reaching a length of five meters and a width of around two meters.
A pleasant melody rang out as countless soundwaves erupted in all directions, and a string of explosions erupted, putting the offensive power of both sides on full display.
The first to be affected was Ling Zichen. Once Mo Zihong unleashed his Demonic Zither True Body, the melody of his zither exerted control upon her once again, resulting in a bout of disorientation that prevented her from being able to follow up on her initial attack. Immediately thereafter, the resulting explosive force from their clash sent her flying into the distance.
However, Mo Zihong wasn't having a good time, either. In her fit of rage, Ling Zichen had activated over 70% of her soul lasers, all of which were formed by source positive circulation cores, and their explosive power was something that even Tang Wulin had been quite wary of during their sparring match.
The shockwaves from the explosion disrupted the melody of the Demonic Zither, and it was sent crashing down onto the ground, shattering a large section of the earth beneath it.
However, Mo Zihong had finally noticed that Ling Zichen's body had clearly stiffened before she was sent flying, indicating that she had fallen under his control.
As a result, he identified the fact that she was susceptible to being impacted by the melody of his zither.
Thus, he forcibly disregarded the impact that the clash had on his body, and a layer of dazzling dark purple metal appeared over the surface of the Demonic Zither. This was none other than his three-word battle armor!
Using his three-word battle armor, Mo Zihong was quickly nullifying the impact of the clash, and at the same time, the melody that he was playing became several times louder as he unleashed all types of powerful control abilities in Ling Zichen's direction, including Feebleness, Curse, Sluggishness, and Weariness.
As a powerful Battle God, he had exceptional reactions and adaptability, allowing him to choose the best course of action against individual opponents.
In contrast, Ling Zichen was sorely lacking in battle experience. If Tang Wulin had been in the same situation as her, he would definitely open up some distance between himself and his opponent before trying to reunite with his companions rather than fight fire with fire.
In the face of the zither's melody, Ling Zichen's mind was instantly scattered, and a loud alarm began to ring out within her mecha. Her mecha could sense that her spiritual fluctuations were too violent, and it had activated its most potent defenses.
However, during the initial design, soundwave attacks were taken into consideration, but the mecha's defenses against spiritual power were quite lacking. After all, spiritual power was very difficult to grasp, yet could be omnipresent within a certain area, so it had always been difficult to ward off.
Ling Zichen's spiritual power was superior to that of a normal person, but it still wasn't on the same level as a high-grade Soul Master, and her brain had a limited tolerance capacity.
In the face of these powerful soundwave attacks from a seasoned Titled Douluo, even her life was coming under threat.
Her vital signs quickly began to display signs of rapid deterioration, and if things were to continue like this, her head was at risk of exploding.
Right at this moment, a beam of light descended from the heavens to envelop her entire body, and in the next instant, she vanished amid a flash of light.
This was the Battle God Arena's automatic protective system at work.
When it sensed that a Soul Master's life was under major threat and that the Soul Master was unable to save themselves, it would teleport them out of the Battle God Arena to ensure their safety.
This was the training ground of the Battle God Hall, and death was to be avoided at all costs.
A hint of triumph appeared in Mo Zihong's eyes as he witnessed the beam of light descending from above. He reverted back to his human form, which was encased in his suit of three-word, but instead of continuing onward, he immediately turned back and flew toward the Battle Gods' territory.
An advantage had already been attained, and it had to be maintained, so it would be unwise for him to take unnecessary risks.
He was an exceptional control system Soul Master, but if he encountered an agility attack system or assault system Soul Master with sufficient spiritual power to withstand his abilities, then he would be in a lot of danger.
Right as Ling Zichen was teleported out of Battle God Arena, Tang Wulin and the others were all informed by a voice that one of their teammates had been eliminated.
Everyone had seen Ling Zichen's SOS signal flare, and Tang Wulin arrived at the middle path almost as soon as Mo Zihong crossed back into Battle God territory.
Yuanen Yehui and Xu Xiaoyan also arrived at the same time, and Tang Wulin immediately realized what had gone wrong as he watched Mo Zihong vanish into the forest on the other side of the river.
He had made an error in judgment. He had thought that Guan Yue would be situated on the middle path, but it was Mo Zihong instead.
In his original plan, he had thought that if Ling Zichen were to put on that insane display where she threatened self-detonation, even a Limit Douluo would be intimidated. As long as she could stall her opponent on the middle path long enough for Tang Wulin to kill the Dark Demonic Dragon and get back, they would attain a massive advantage.
After that, they would be able to directly clash with their opponents.
However, what he failed to envision was that Mo Zihong would be on the middle path, and that his soundwave-based soul skills would be a natural bane to Ling Zichen, and he was being punished for these oversights.
