Chapter 489 - Exploding Fruit
This explosive fruit did not originate from Douluo Planet but came from the third administrative planet developed by humans, which was also the first administrative planet for soul beasts.
At that time on that planet, the explosive fruit had brought a lot of trouble to the federal army. The economic value of this thing wasn’t high, but the power of its explosion was extremely strong. Also, its reproductive ability was extremely strong and covered a large area of that planet. When humans came, they accidentally stirred some and caused a series of explosions. It really caused the federal army to suffer heavy losses.
The largest explosive fruit even had the power to blow up a warship’s defensive barrier.
The Federation had put in a lot of effort and with the help of some plant-type soul beasts, they were able to resolve the problem of the Exploding Fruits. Shrek Academy was also very interested in those Exploding Fruits, so they transplanted some back. But to control the risk, they only planted them in a small area.
After some research, they discovered that when an Exploding Fruit was about to ripen, they could harvest it and use it as a bomb. It was quite powerful. As for large Exploding Fruits, they didn’t dare to groom any. They were afraid that if they didn’t control them well, it would bring about a disaster.
At this moment, hadn’t Lan Xuanyu just thrown out two Exploding Fruits ? The two Sun Piranha Flowers got slightly damaged from the explosion.
Lan Xuanyu also knew that it was extremely difficult to defeat a fifth-year senior and he couldn’t use any soul devices. He managed to exchange for this item in the Special Exchange Office.
This obviously didn’t represent their strength, but it didn’t violate the rules either.
Furthermore, the referee for today’s match was Ling Yiyi, who had a grudge against Hua Linhan! When Ling Yiyi saw Lan Xuanyu’s Exploding Fruits working, she almost laughed out loud. She immediately felt relieved.
Exploding Fruits were not only strong in explosive power, but after being hit by the seeds ejected from the explosion, these seeds would absorb the life energy around them and grow rapidly. If they were not dealt with in time, there was the possibility of a second explosion. The federal army had also suffered greatly in this aspect.
Furthermore, Hua Linhan’s Sun Piranha Flower was a plant and the energy absorbed by the seed would be even more direct.
At this moment, small purplish-black dots started appearing on the surface of two Sun Piranha Flowers.
Lan Xuanyu’s team attacked without hesitation as well. Another few purplish-black Explosion Fruits flew towards his Sun Piranha Flowers. Under the explosions, the Sun Piranha Flowers retreated and were covered by the seeds.
On the spectator stand, the honest youth blinked. “This junior really put in a lot of money! Not bad, he even bought Exploding Fruits. If I remember correctly, one yellow emblem ?”
The pretty senior said, “Serves him right for blowing up that playboy.”
The honest youth laughed. “It’s useless! If Hua Linhan could be defeated like this, he would have been beaten to death by his love rivals.”
While they were talking, Hua Linhan, who was in the arena, had a helpless look on his face. “Junior, Exploding Fruits are so expensive, why bother?”
As he spoke, the third Soul Ring on his body suddenly lit up. The four Sun Piranha Flowers stopped in the air at the same time. Following that, all of their golden petals suddenly blossomed with a dazzling light. The roots behind them turned gold-red in an instant, and the air in the entire battlefield heated up.
The seeds of those Exploding Fruits cracked and disappeared in an instant.
The air became viscous under the heat brought about by the four Sun Piranha Flowers and the temperature began to rise rapidly.
Four golden-red pillars of light shot out from the mouths of the four Sun Piranha Flowers at the same time, striking Lan Xuanyu, Dong Qianqiu, Yuanen Huihui, and Tang Yuge.
Lan Xuanyu and Dong Qianqiu were originally together, but when the two light pillars descended from the sky, they only felt that the air around them had become viscous, causing their movements to become sluggish. That blazing heat felt as though it was about to ignite the entire world. And in the face of this high temperature, they seemed so tiny.
‘Is this the disparity in our strength?’ Lan Xuanyu laughed bitterly in his heart. The disparity in soul power was simply too great.
Right at this moment, a loud and clear phoenix cry resounded as a cold aura flew over from behind. A gigantic Ice Phoenix brazenly charged in and collided against those two fire pillars.
Ice and fire blossomed in the air with dazzling light and surging elemental fluctuations. Lan Xuanyu took the opportunity to pull Dong Qianqiu forward and charged straight towards Hua Linhan.
At this moment, they could not retreat. Only by getting close to Hua Linhan would they have a chance.
Heavenly Snow Woman, Jade Phoenix Guqin, Self Martial Soul Fusion skill, Ice Phoenix Dance. This was Lan Mengqin’s strongest attack. She also had a cultivation close to five-ring, and with her Martial Soul Fusion skill, the strongest attack she unleashed was able to forcefully block the two Sun Piranha Flowers’ outburst.
On the other side, Tang Yuge leapt and a red light flickered on his body. Her sixth soul ring flashed and she actually disappeared into the pillar of fire. In the next moment, she had already drilled out of it and a five-colored light flowed and pounced straight at Hua Linhan.
Thunder exploded and two gigantic thunderbolts bombarded the fire pillar. The Thunder Spirit War Drums exploded at the fire pillar.
The five first years used different methods to neutralize Hua Linhan’s powerful attack.
When the Outer Court students saw this scene, they couldn’t help but secretly give the first years a thumbs up. No one thought that the first years would be able to win, but to be able to block Hua Linhan’s powerful attack was enough to prove their strength.
Seeing that Lan Xuanyu and the rest were about to charge towards him, Hua Linhan didn’t panic at all. He merely smiled and the fourth soul ring on his body suddenly lit up. Following that, a terrifying scene appeared. With his body as the center, countless gold-red spikes suddenly appeared and shot out at the same time, enveloping Lan Xuanyu, Dong Qianqiu, and even Tang Yuge.
The Sun Piranha Flower had thorns!
Lan Xuanyu’s figure flashed and appeared behind Dong Qianqiu. He placed his left hand on Dong Qianqiu’s back and let out a dragon roar.
A golden dragon head appeared in an instant and a huge sound wave swept out. It was the third soul skill of his golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass, the Golden Dragon Roar.
The valiant dragon roar caused Hua Linhan to freeze for a moment, and a dazed look appeared in his eyes. At this moment, Dong Qianqiu raised the ice spear in her hand.
Her body flickered in a small area on the spot, and the blue spear light on the ice spear flickered. Every time she stabbed, there seemed to be a series of afterimages behind her, and the temperature around her dropped instantly, as though it was no longer as hot as before. And between those afterimages, her ice spear cleverly lifted the front ends of the spikes. She did not block them, but slightly changed the direction of the spikes through her stabs.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Those golden spikes flew past Dong Qianqiu’s body.
At this moment, the battle technique displayed by Dong Qianqiu could only be described as shocking. She didn’t cower when faced with the powerful soul skill of a seven-ring soul master and actually faced it head-on.
This was definitely related to the enhancement that Lan Xuanyu had given her, and it was also directly related to the enhancement brought about by the ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence. However, her courage and technique were also key
The Golden Dragon Roar only prevented Hua Linhan from controlling those thorns, but the power of those thorns was that of a seven-ring Soul Sage!
After sending all the spikes flying, Dong Qianqiu’s face turned pale. She had really gone all out.
