Chương 43: Chapter 43: Tang San Trying to Take Power? My Fatal Chicken Strike!
Zhuge Lan had a sudden flash of inspiration and discovered a brilliant use for the Holy Light Blessing ability!
—Just throw it at a fully healed enemy!
It would control them for a few seconds physiologically!
And, if the person was thin-skinned, it might even mentally devastate them!
Just thinking about it made him shudder.
"Sss—"
Zhuge Lan's whole body got goosebumps! This soul bone ability is too crazy!
He couldn't help but glance at Zhao Wuji.
Zhao Wuji: Σ(っQДQ;)っ
[Emotion Points +9999]
Despite still limping, Zhao Wuji suddenly recovered and started running smoothly.
He smiled at Zhuge Lan, showing eight teeth, and gave a thumbs up, signaling that everything was fine.
Healing?
No need!
Absolutely no need!
Zhuge Lan: "..."
He moved next to Oscar.
[Emotion Points +1111]
Oscar stared at Zhuge Lan in horror, with emotion points continually popping above his head.
He braced himself and said, "Lan... Lan Bro, what's up?"
"I just thought of something," Zhuge Lan asked. "For Teacher Zhao and Ma Hongjun's injuries, can't your Recovery Sausage fix it?"
Oscar sighed in relief.
"Oh, that!"
Oscar explained—
"My Recovery Sausage is a comprehensive recovery tool. It promotes wound healing, restores stamina and soul power, relieves fatigue and pain, and gives a sense of fullness."
"But it's not instant."
"People like Teacher Zhao and Fatty, their injuries are more serious and need time to heal."
Zhuge Lan understood.
It made sense.
Although he wanted to test his soul bone ability, Causality Reversal, given his current "reputation"...
Forget it.
He decided to wait until they reached the Star Dou Forest to try it on a soul beast.
The group traveled in silence.
When they were about 10 kilometers away from the Star Dou Forest, Zhao Wuji called for a stop.
He gave them some instructions, stating he wouldn't intervene unnecessarily.
Then he quickly disappeared, clutching his rear.
[Emotion Points +5555]
Zhuge Lan kept his Spiritual Detection active and saw faint blood spots seeping through Zhao Wuji's clothes.
All the running had aggravated the injury.
Even so, Zhao Wuji didn't dare ask Oscar for a Recovery Sausage—he feared Zhuge Lan might enthusiastically offer his Holy Light Blessing again.
Zhuge Lan scratched his head.
Is it really that terrifying?
He raised his left hand, feeling eager to try again.
Could it really feel that good?
He was curious!
"Before we move out, I have something to say."
Tang San suddenly spoke up—
"Just like how Dean Flender views eating Oscar's sausages as training."
"Zhuge's healing soul bone ability has an immediate effect."
"Even though we have both Rongrong and Xiao Ao as support, neither of them offers direct healing."
"So I suggest it's necessary to get used to Zhuge's healing soul bone ability in advance."
"Otherwise, if we get injured in the Star Dou Forest and need to be treated then, the consequences could be unimaginable!"
[Emotion Points +999]
[Emotion Points +999]
[Emotion Points +999]
Zhuge Lan's eyes lit up! Great!
You dog, Tang San, for once something decent comes out of your mouth!
He immediately looked expectantly at the group.
Dai Mubai and the others exchanged glances.
Zhu Zhuqing, seeing the awkward silence, lifted her long leg, preparing to support her boyfriend.
"I think it's a good idea!" Ning Rongrong said first. "Since you're suggesting it, Tang San, you should go first!"
[Emotion Points +1111]
Tang San nodded without hesitation.
—He wanted to use this opportunity to seize back his position as the team leader!
So he couldn't back down!
Tang San activated his Purple Demon Eyes, preparing himself thoroughly.
"Zhuge, go ahead!"
"Alright!" Zhuge Lan grinned. "I bless you!"
The Holy Light fell.
Tang San, who was prepared for anything, trembled as his body reacted! The light in his Purple Demon Eyes faded, and his determined gaze began to blur.
In the end...
He couldn't resist and let out a syllable—
"Ah~~~"
Long and resonant.
[Emotion Points +11111]
Tang San gritted his teeth, "My stamina has mostly recovered, and the healing effect is indeed good. Do it again!"
—He had already lost face, so he had to see his plan through!
And then...
"I bless you!"
"Ah~~~~"
[Emotion Points +9999]
"I bless you!"
"Oh~~~~"
[Emotion Points +8888]
"I bless you!"
"Hmm~~~~"
[Emotion Points +7777]
Twenty rounds of Holy Light Blessing later, Tang San had not been able to resist even once. By the end, he was utterly hopeless!
—Does this soul bone ability even have "resistance"?
But at this point...
If he called it off now, wouldn't he lose both face and dignity?
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and endure, hoping Zhuge Lan's soul power would eventually run out.
Well...
If he knew that Zhuge Lan's soul bone ability consumed no energy...
He'd probably despair.
"I bless you!"
"Ugh~~~"
[Emotion Points +555]
Zhuge Lan smacked his lips.
Why had the emotional points dwindled after only a few thousand? He was considering stopping.
Suddenly, he remembered he had another soul bone ability he hadn't tested yet.
'Let's spice things up for Tang San.'
His chest glowed with black and white light, transforming into a black-and-white torso bone.
Reversal of Causality Torso Soul Bone!
A beam of chaotic light shot out, landing on Tang San.
"Soul Bone Ability: Causality Reversal!"
"I bless you!"
Tang San, whose face had been glowing with the effects of the Holy Light, suddenly turned pale! His breath weakened, and his body curled up like a shrimp.
He let out painful, gasping breaths.
[Emotion Points +19999]
[Emotion Points +1111]
Seeing this, Xiao Wu, already distressed, leaped toward Tang San.
"Xiao San!"
"What's happening!"
"Don't scare me!"
Tang San's taut body relaxed and collapsed into Xiao Wu's arms.
Drenched in sweat, his eyes were filled with terror!
[Emotion Points +19999]
[Emotion Points +4444]
Xiao Wu glared at Zhuge Lan and scolded—
"Tang San was helping you out of goodwill, how could you repay kindness with cruelty?"
Uh...
Zhuge Lan smiled awkwardly.
Yeah, this one was kind of on him.
"Sorry, I couldn't resist testing out my other soul bone ability."
"I didn't expect this result..."
"I'll heal him right now."
Seeing his sincere apology, Xiao Wu's anger softened a bit.
Then...
Zhuge Lan immediately delivered a powerful kick to Tang San!
It was so fierce that it made a whooshing sound as it cut through the air!
[Emotion Points +9999]
[Emotion Points +6666]
[Emotion Points +2333]
[Emotion Points +1111]
Xiao Wu exploded on the spot!
She summoned her martial spirit, Soft Bone Charming Rabbit, and her first spirit ring lit up!
As a clash seemed imminent...
Tang San, who had been struck hard, grabbed Xiao Wu's shoulder.
"Xiao San!" Xiao Wu yelled angrily, "At a time like this, you're still..."
She turned her head.
Seeing Tang San's rosy complexion, Xiao Wu froze.
Huh?
After such a fatal strike, why did his face look even better?
Tang San said in confusion, "That kick Zhuge just delivered... it seemed like it had healing effects?"
[Emotion Points +2333]
[Emotion Points +2333]
[Emotion Points +2333]
(?—?)?)?)
Wait, what? What are you even talking about?
"It's probably due to the torso bone's soul bone ability," Tang San analyzed—
"It seems to transfer damage into healing."
"That's why the healing soul bone ability caused me pain, while an attack healed me."
"Right?"
Zhuge Lan gave him a double thumbs-up.
As expected of a "Douluo Protagonist," to figure out that much.
—Though Tang San was missing some key details, he had still identified part of the bug.
Of course, Zhuge Lan wasn't about to explain the full ability.
So he simply said—
"My Reversal of Causality torso bone was a gift from a friend before I left my clan, so I'm not too familiar with its effects."
"I saw you struggling with the aftereffects of my healing soul bone ability."
"That's why I thought this might work as a treatment."
"So..."
"Sorry for not consulting you first."
[Emotion Points +19999]
Tang San had no choice but to respond with a forced smile—
"Compared to your healing soul bone ability, this Causality Reversal soul bone is actually more impressive."
"It allows support-type spirit masters to temporarily face off against strong attack-type opponents."
"In critical moments, it might even turn the tide."
"Zhuge, I'm starting to envy your family background—it's so powerful!"
Oh!
To hear the "Douluo Cheat King" say that gave Zhuge Lan a full sense of accomplishment.
"You're too kind."
Zhuge Lan laughed—
"Since there is an alternative treatment plan, let's stop doing resistance training and set off for the Star Dou Forest."
Tang San stiffly nodded.
He had led the charge and ended up losing face, becoming the only one to suffer in the end.
But he couldn't just ask others to go through the same, could he?
He could only swallow this bitter pill.
"This time, during the hunting mission, I have to perform well!"
"I need to gain everyone's approval and take back the leadership role!"
As he pondered this, Tang San suddenly realized something.
"Zhuge," Tang San asked curiously, "With so many high-level soul bones, even if each one doesn't add much power, shouldn't you be higher than level 36?"
Huh? The others suddenly realized this too.
Zhuge Lan clicked his tongue—he couldn't exactly explain that the system separated levels from the soul bones when selling them, could he?
Time for some quick thinking!
"My cultivation method is rather unique," Zhuge Lan said.
"Just like your Mysterious Heaven Skill, the soul power you cultivate is of higher quality than regular soul power."
"Mine is even more concentrated by several times. While the difficulty of training is multiplied, the power of my soul abilities and soul bone skills increases proportionally."
"That's one of the reasons why my soul skills can affect even a Soul Saint."
Everyone: Σ(っQДQ;)っ
[Emotional points +66666]
[Emotional points +66666]
Whoa!
They all wished they had a technique like that, but they were self-aware enough to only admire it in silence.
Tang San was immediately crushed.
He thought he had found a flaw, but instead, Zhuge Lan scored another win.
This hurt worse than getting beaten up!
As silence fell over the group, they arrived at the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.
And then they saw a sight they would never forget in their entire lives!
"What in the world is happening here?!"
