"Bang!"
A violent collision sound rang out, and Lu Feng's body was, unsurprisingly, sent flying again.
"Kid, the power of this Clear Sky Hammer of yours seems a bit lacking," the tall soul master said mockingly.
Although it was a taunt, he did not relax his guard.
There was no guarantee that a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect didn't have some other life-saving means. The shadow of the explosion from just now still lingered in his mind.
Only by going all out and smashing the other party's head could he truly relax.
The tall soul master suddenly accelerated, a layer of bright light shining on his sharp claws. At the same time, his second soul ring lit up brightly.
"Second Soul Skill: Triple Thrust!"
This move of his not only enhanced his own attack power but also came with a certain displacement effect.
It was a total of three stages of attack. Each attack could provide an additional 10% attack power, and with the short-distance thrust variations, it was extremely flexible. If an ordinary soul master was approached by him, they would be skinned alive, if not killed.
After the battle with the Three Freaks of the Huang Family, Lu Feng had been continuously optimizing his attack methods through combat.
Lu Feng had mastered many combat skills and also had many martial souls.
This was his advantage.
How to combine these advantages to defeat the enemy was the question Lu Feng thought about the most.
Just as the dog claw was about to reach him, Lu Feng's body strangely retreated one meter, and the peak force of the dog claw's strike hit empty air.
At the same time, Lu Feng's Clear Sky Hammer swung from behind him to the front, smashing head-on into the dog claw that was shining with a strong gale.
Amidst the deafening roar, a strong blast wave was suddenly kicked up.
The third hammer strike!
This time, it was Lu Feng who had initiated the attack.
It was just a pity that the tall soul master's soul power was too strong; otherwise, Lu Feng could have broken his dog claw with a single blow.
"Hmm? It's this teleportation skill again?" A grave look flashed in the tall soul master's eyes.
The next moment, a sharp glint suddenly lit up in his eyes.
Just now, he had glanced at Lu Feng's soul rings and found that he had not used a soul skill.
In other words...
The tall soul master immediately felt his whole body heat up. His gaze towards Lu Feng flickered with undisguised greed.
This kid has a soul bone!
A Soul Grandmaster who actually possessed a soul bone!
And it was a rare teleportation skill at that!
Thinking of this, the thought of killing Lu Feng in the tall soul master's mind deepened a few more degrees.
"Swoosh!"
The tall soul master's figure instantly took a step back, putting distance between himself and Lu Feng.
This was the power of his second soul skill. Not only could it be used for offense, but it could also be used to retreat with its displacement effect, always keeping the rhythm of the battle in his own hands.
Of course, the tall soul master was not planning to retreat, but was accumulating power.
In the last blow, he had been suppressed by Lu Feng and had lost the initiative.
After this displacement, the third stage of his soul skill's attack effect had been enhanced to 130%. The next blow would be the time of the opponent's death.
Lu Feng did not stop swinging the hammer in his hand.
Taking advantage of the moment the tall soul master retreated, Lu Feng swung the Clear Sky Hammer, continuously building up momentum.
The fourth hammer strike.
The fifth hammer strike.
By the time the tall soul master charged forward again, what greeted him was already Lu Feng's sixth hammer strike.
The expected sound of collision did not occur. Just as the dog claw was about to cut open Lu Feng's stomach, his body strangely shifted one meter to the right, forcefully avoiding this fatal attack.
"What! How is that possible?"
The tall soul master was slightly stunned by Lu Feng's sudden shift.
He couldn't figure out how Lu Feng had done it.
As everyone knows, although soul bones were powerful and could directly provide a skill, under normal circumstances, there was a time interval for using soul bone skills.
If used consecutively, the first to suffer a backlash would be the soul bone holder themself.
"Bang!"
A violent impact sound rang out. The tall soul master felt a sharp pain coming from his left shoulder, and he winced in pain.
The seventh hammer strike.
"Wait, there's something strange about this kid!" Under the intense pain, the tall soul master instantly regained his sanity.
As Davis's trusted subordinate, the tall soul master's strength, mentality, and vision were all beyond doubt.
He had just been blinded by hatred and the temptation of the soul bone.
Now that he had calmed down and recalled Lu Feng's fighting style, he suddenly realized that although he seemed to have the upper hand, he had actually fallen into the other party's trap from the very beginning.
Right from the moment Lu Feng had opened his mouth.
"This kid is guiding me to fight him head-on!" the tall soul master instantly reacted.
"He's just a two-ring Soul Grandmaster. On what grounds does he dare to fight me head-on?"
"This kid's martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, but he hasn't been using any soul skills, instead directly using the Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method. This means that in his heart, this is already his strongest means. He has absolute confidence that he can defeat me with one hammer blow."
"The Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method requires continuous charging and is easily interrupted, but this kid just happens to have a soul bone with a displacement skill..."
"No, what he's using is definitely not a soul bone, but a self-created soul skill!!!"
"The Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method, plus a self-created displacement skill, continuously charging up for a single, decisive blow. If I continue to clash with him head-on, I'm afraid I really won't be able to withstand the final blow of those 'eighty-one swings'!"
"Retreat!"
The tall soul master instantly made a decision.
So what if you have eighty-one hammer swings?
So what if you have eight hundred and eighty-one?
As long as you can't hit the enemy, it's all useless!
The tall soul master's figure instantly retreated two or three steps, putting a large distance between himself and Lu Feng.
His plan was very simple. Lu Feng's attack method was clearly an all-or-nothing, forward-charging one.
He would just keep a distance of dozens of meters, use the long-range attack of his first soul skill to launch sneak attacks, and in less than three minutes, the other party would run out of soul power.
"Oh? I've been found out?"
Lu Feng looked at the tall soul master's retreating figure and immediately guessed the other's thoughts.
As expected, in this real world, no soul master was like in the original novel, only knowing how to spam soul skills at each other.
The heroes of this world are truly as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river. Even a nameless robber soul master had such skill.
Interesting, truly very interesting.
A cold glint flashed in Lu Feng's eyes, and the corner of his mouth rose slightly. "A pity you realized it too late."
"Swoosh!"
With a raise of his hand, sixteen sharp arrows shot out from Lu Feng's grasp, cutting through the air with a sharp sound as they flew towards the dog-man.
Tang Sect hidden weapon—Zhuge Godly Crossbow!
The tall soul master's hair instantly stood on end. His intuition told him that if he were hit by these sharp arrows, the outcome would definitely not be good.
In mid-air, the dog-man's body twisted miraculously. A thick soul power burst forth, and under a strong shockwave, the trajectory of the sharp arrows was deflected a lot.
"Swoosh!"
Two sharp arrows pierced the dog-man's stomach, but it was clearly not a fatal wound.
"Damn it!" The tall soul master clutched his waist and instantly swallowed a pill.
"What is this weapon? If my reaction had been a moment slower, I would have been dead."
A hound-type martial soul was extremely fast, and its acceleration also only took an instant. And this one instant was enough for him to turn the tide of the battle.
"He could even react to that??" Lu Feng's eyes darkened.
He did not continue to dwell on this issue. The next moment, the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand swung down forcefully.
"Bang!"
Another fierce collision sound rang out.
The Clear Sky Hammer and the dog claw met. This time, Lu Feng was only knocked back four or five steps.
At the same time, Lu Feng's Clear Sky Hammer also quickly swung out twice.
The tenth hammer strike.
The eleventh hammer strike.
However, Lu Feng did not use his Clear Sky Hammer to strike the tall soul master, but swung it at empty air.
It was obvious that he was accumulating power.
But strangely, Lu Feng's feet continuously followed the hammer swings. The footwork seemed chaotic and disorderly, yet it seemed to contain some kind of rule.
The tall soul master's expression immediately darkened.
He could dodge those incredibly fast sharp arrows, but he found that no matter which direction he dodged, he couldn't avoid the other party's hammer.
It was as if his hammer could predict his movements!
It would always smash at the spot where he would appear in the next instant!
The dog-man had never thought that there was such a miraculous self-created soul skill in this world.
Generally speaking, even if a soul master created their own soul skill, it would revolve around their martial soul.
The Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method was created by the previous-to-last sect master of the Clear Sky Sect, the then Clear Sky Douluo—Tang Chen, while he was forging.
Although it was strong, it was just a method of borrowing force to strike.
But this kid in front of him, this strange footwork he had created, had no theoretical basis at all.
It was like a flower in the mirror, a moon on the water.
A castle in the air.
"The greatest flaw of the Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method has actually been solved by him? A heaven-defying genius!" A sense of foreboding suddenly rose in the tall soul master's heart.
However, he soon had a countermeasure.
Since he couldn't dodge, then he would just fight head-on!
So what if it's the Clear Sky Hammer?
So what if he's a genius who created his own soul skill?
My soul power is over level forty. Even if I'm injured, I can still outlast a mere two-ring Soul Grandmaster, can't I?
Let's see who falls first when that final hammer blow comes down—me, or you, who gets killed by your own rebound force!
