Chapter 113.3: Heavenquake Axe
Huo Yuhao saw it clearly this time. Both his armor and sword released an intense blue lightning current as he drew his sword. The current did not disperse, but quickly gathered towards the tip of the sword before being unleashed brutally once again.
Lightning was very unstable. For this soul tool to seal the powers of lightning and unleash it with such precise control, Huo Yuhao was a little uncertain of how to describe this soul tool anymore. He believed that it was not only a Class 5 soul tool, and might not have been produced by Michael himself. This was especially so because the sword released a lightning radiance that almost seemed solid. When it was used, it even felt as if there was a flow or wave.
However, Michael had miscalculated this time.
Jiang Peng waved both his hands in the distance, and the originally fierce Heavenquake Axe changed suddenly directions in the air. It drew a weird-looking arc and swung behind Michael instantly. The axe blade slashed down heavily.
Michaels reaction was not slow. He leapt forward immediately when he realized that things were amiss. The soul thruster behind his armor was unleashed at full power. But it was no longer just a driving force now. Rather, it shot out a powerful light towards the back that attempted to resist the strike of the Heavenquake Axe.
But a soul emperor was a soul emperor. This soul tool on Michaels body was very strong, but Jiang Peng was no easy opponent either. After all, he was the top talent in the Imperial Mystical Academys history. Upon closer examination, it was possible to discover that Jiang Pengs yellow first soul ring was flashing with a subtle radiance. This radiance was very special, and wasnt just like the kind of radiance emitted by soul masters martial souls. It was delicate, and flashed with a frequency that resembled the rate of a heartbeat.
Jiang Peng had never used his first soul skill before in previous rounds.
Generally speaking, soul masters soul skills were usually more powerful the later they were obtained. That was because the added limit would be greater. But Jiang Peng was special in a certain aspect. His first soul skill was not used for any direct attack or offense. It was a control-type soul skill that was used to control his martial soul.
The Heavenquake Axe was an extremely tough assault-type martial soul, and it also carried a powerful destructive capability. It could be compared with Wang Dongs Clear Sky Hammer. Its destructive strength was still very frightening without even using a soul skill. When Jiang Peng had fused with his first soul ring, he had accidentally chosen the wrong soul beast. This had led to his possession of this control-type soul skill. But with his intelligence and solid foundation, he managed to progress in another way under the guidance of the Imperial Mystical Academys teachers. He invented a special offense, which he called the Eighteen Dragonslaying Slashes.
The strength of this Eighteen Dragonslaying Slashes was that it wasnt a soul skill. It was better than a soul skill, and could be combined with other soul skills. With the control of the first soul ring, he could enable the Heavenquake Axe to strike consecutively for a maximum of 18 times. This was the first time this killer move had been demonstrated in the individual matches.
Bang In front of the Heavenquake Axe, the light shot out by the soul thruster was instantly split, and the axe struck Michaels back heavily.
In the next moment after the Heavenquake Axe struck, a dull explosion sound rang out. The impact caused Michael to be pushed forward.
