Douluo Dalu - The Story of Sheng Feilong 213 Strength Of The True Avatar

For someone like Song Weihan, who focuses on his own spiritual cultivation more than his physical strength, such an opportunity was worth more than a mountain of gold; Seeing Absolute Elements in action is already incredibly rare, not to mention Conceptual Absolutes. The Absolute Control property of the True Avatar was something Song Weihan had never seen before.

He continued to test out its limits, marvelled by what he found out within moments; No matter what he tried, he couldn't prompt the surrounding energy to act according to his will as the whole area was under lock-down from the Radiant Emperor True Avatar.

However, this wasn't the only thing the True Avatar did; While the condensed energy in the surroundings was pressing down on him, forcing him to withstand it using his Soul Power and Soul Rings' amplification, there was also a powerful mental suppression. Although the mental suppression wasn't affecting Song Weihan due to his vastly superior Spirit Power, this wouldn't be the case for most other Soul Master.

Song Weihan was lost in thought for a few more moments, calmly studying the True Avatar some more. During all this, Sheng Feilong was gnashing his teeth to keep the suppression up, fuelling the True Avatar with his own energy.

When Song Weihan had to use his Soul Rings to resist the pressure, Sheng Feilong smiled smugly for a moment, but that smile vanished quickly as all the pressure on Song Weihan seemed to vanish in an instant; He casually stood under the pressure, looking around and at his Radiant Emperor True Avatar with a nonchalant expression.

"Alright, that's enough." Another while later, Song Weihan finally spoke up, telling Sheng Feilong to cancel his ability and take his True Avatar back. The latter did so, toppling over with his hands on his knees and breathing heavily from the exhaustion.

Meanwhile, Song Weihan was still as calm as before, retracted his Soul Rings and smiled at Sheng Feilong. "Your True Avatar is truly amazing... A single command from you and its abilities force attacks on multiple levels at once into action; A lock-down of all energy in the surroundings, physical suppression using the energy from the surroundings and even mental attacks."

Sheng Feilong only looked up to him, showing a displeased expression as the latter obviously wasn't burdened by his 'amazing power' at all. Song Weihan ignored this look and simply continued speaking. "The power of the mental attacks is at the absolute limit of the Spirit Abyss Realm; If I wasn't in the Spirit Domain Realm already, I would've had no chance against that. The lock-down and physical suppression are the same; I couldn't make use of any energy other than the reserves in my own body, no matter what I tried and the physical suppression even forced me to use my Soul Rings."

He paused for a moment, chuckling when he saw Sheng Feilong's disapproving look and shrugged. "You have to understand just how powerful my Soul Power and Spirit Power are when compared to you; The fact that you can force me to use my Soul Rings is already incredible."

"Master, you yourself said that my physical strength is already at the limit of Attack System Soul Douluo's, while my Spirit Power is much superior to their... yet, even using my strongest ability, I couldn't even burden you once you used your Soul Power..? Why does it feel... weak..?" Sheng Feilong finally couldn't hold back any longer and complained with a stoic expression.

Again, Song Weihan only laughed it off, causing Sheng Feilong to frown even more, before speaking up. "Feilong, do you remember the prerequisite for possessing strong Spirit Power? A powerful body capable of holding that power. How strong do you thing my physical body is to be able to support my Spirit Power? How strong is it after being tempered by my Soul Power at all times?"

Sheng Feilong calmed down, nodding his head, though still not fully convinced. Noticing that, Song Weihan continued with a small smile. "When I tell you that your True Avatar is amazing, I really mean it, believe me. You've only just formed it and are unfamiliar with its powers, yet you're already able to force me to such lengths. Usually, it takes weeks, if not months until Soul Masters are able to use their True Avatar's effectively. Moreover, once you reach the Soul Saint level, your opponent will all be powerful geniuses of their own right; Fighting above your level, much less your boundary is nearly impossible."

Song Weihan shrugged once more and casually waved his hand. "That's especially true for Titled Douluo's. Remember when I attacked Shrek a few years ago? I couldn't even force Yun Ming to use his Soul Skills and was instead badly injured by just his normal attacks. That's the difference between top level Titled Douluo and all others."

Of course, both Sheng Feilong and Song Weihan were aware that the Atlas Douluo Yun Ming was a special case; He wasn't just some random, high levelled Titled Douluo, but a rank 99 Limit Douluo and Shrek Academy's Sea God's Pavilion Master, one of the most powerful Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent, if not the whole world.

Still, it was a good comparison as Song Weihan was a genius on the same level as Yun Ming, only, dozens of years younger. Among Titled Douluos, every single difference in rank is already a great chasm that people below that level simply can't understand.

Sheng Feilong became silent when Song Weihan started speaking about the attack on Shrek Academy. By now, he knew that Song Weihan only went this far because Sheng Feilong vanished during the Year End Exam of Shrek and because the Sheng Clan was eradicated during the same time.

While Song Weihan was relatively nonchalant about it, Sheng Feilong still took the matter to heart and looked at his Master with a heavy expression. "...Do we still not know what really happened to the Sheng Clan?"

Only now did Song Weihan realize his mistake; He only wanted to take Yun Ming as an example, but forgot that this was tied closely to the matters of the Sheng Clan. He could only sigh lightly before shaking his head. "No, we haven't found anything about it, yet... Shrek Academy's Elders should be the only ones that know about the Sheng Clan's bloodline, but none of them seem to be involved in this. We still have no idea what happened to them... I'm sorry."

Sheng Feilong nodded his head and didn't ask anything else, but it was clear to Song Weihan that he wasn't in the right mindset to continue their training any longer. "Let's take a rest for now. You've spent quite a bit of Soul Power. Try to familiarize yourself with your True Avatar when you meditate from now on."

With this, they ended their training for the day and Song Weihan sent Sheng Feilong home, while he himself returned to his laboratory. Coincidentally, Sheng Feilong met up with Yuanen Yehui and Huang Jialong when he went to eat something. The three of them talked about their training, with Huang Jialong holding back a bit. He was also the first to leave, his expression somewhat tense after Sheng Feilong told them that he already finished the training Song Weihan had planned for him.

"What's wrong with him..?" Yuanen Yehui asked under her breath as Huang Jialong left, to which Sheng Feilong only nodded with a concerned expression. "Yeah, he was acting weird... Maybe he's concerned about Master She's training. He's been at rank 69 for a while now, right?"

Yuanen Yehui nodded; Huang Jialong reached rank 69 at around the same time she broke through to become a Soul Emperor, yet he hadn't advanced any further while she has already reached rank 64, thanks to the Crystal Spirit Bee's honey Sheng Feilong left for them to use.

"...I guess we should leave him some room to breath; Master will help him with his training." Sheng Feilong said before turning back to Yuanen Yehui. "How's yours going along?" He expression was quite expectant, but Yuanen Yehui only frowned light and replied with a pout. "...It's only been a few days... and I'm not doing any special training."

Sheng Feilong smirked, keeping his gaze locked with hers. "...Jealous?" He only got a venomous look and a sneer back. "You wish." Yuanen Yehui stood up, preparing to leave, while Sheng Feilong laughed at her antics. "Come on, I didn't mean it."

"I'm leaving." Yuanen Yehui didn't wait for Sheng Feilong to say anything else, leaving for real, causing Sheng Feilong to have to clean up for the both of them.

The next morning, Song Weihan informed him that he had a few things to do and that their morning training would be cancelled today. Having nothing better to do, Sheng Feilong decided to join Yuanen Yehui in her training; He had already finished the things Song Weihan wanted him to get done during their training and the only things left were increasing his cultivation level and getting more familiar with his own True Avatar.

------------------------

What Sheng Feilong didn't know though, was the reason why Song Weihan couldn't train with him this morning. The latter was currently running a few tests with Huang Jialong and She Meixiao, mainly trying to figure out what was wrong with the former.
