Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 530: Binding the Dragon Knight

Chapter 530: Binding the Dragon Knight

Countless silver lights layered upon each other in the surrounding space, transforming into a vast expanse of silver radiance that spread outward.

At this moment, Mei Gongzi and Tang San seemed to merge into one entity, their terrifying spatial power causing the very heaven and earth to change color.

On the opposite side, the two powerful fire-attribute opponents had already erupted in flames. Massive columns of fire and dragon flames were furiously shooting toward them.

Mei Gongzi gently waved the Celestial Plume in her hand, opening one illusory space door after another. As the blazing fire columns rushed toward them, they were swallowed one by one by the space doors, vanishing to who knew where. No matter how fierce the flames, they needed to hit their target to have any impact. But now, in the face of the space doors opening one after the other, they were rendered completely ineffective.

On one side, there were endless silver light doors, and on the other, massive fire columns. The aerial battlefield became incredibly dazzling, mesmerizing those who watched.

Mei Gongzi's peacock wings had turned silver, shining brilliantly in contrast to Tang San's golden wings. The gold and silver colors burst forth with dazzling brilliance.

For her, this moment felt just... wonderful. It was an unprecedented sense of control, as if the entire world's space was under her command, and everything fell within her grasp.

As the silver light doors opened and closed, her proficiency in wielding spatial power increased by the second. With the guidance and amplification of the Celestial Plume, the spatial doors continuously corrected and stabilized the spatial distortions caused by the burning flames.

In terms of consumption, she and Tang San were clearly using less energy compared to their opponents, who were frantically firing columns of flame. The space doors transported their attacks away rather than resisting them. As for the teleported fire columns, they erupted in the distant sky, dispersing as a rain of fire.

"Roar—"

The Fire Dragon competitor clearly realized they would be exhausted if this continued. Flapping her dragon wings, she suddenly charged toward Tang San and Mei Gongzi.

Tang San smiled slightly, not in any hurry. How wonderful it was to carry Mei Gongzi like this! If anything, he wanted this match to go on for a little longer! Even if he could quickly defeat the opponent now, he had no intention to do that. Besides, keeping Mei Gongzi in this state for a longer time would greatly help her deepen her understanding of space.

With his golden wings, Tang San soared higher, quickly increasing the distance between them and their opponents.

The dragon race was strong, but in terms of flight speed, none of their clans could compare to the Golden-Winged Roc at the same level. Moreover, even if Tang San and Mei Gongzi didn't fly, as long as they didn't enter the burning space, Mei Gongzi could still teleport.

The standoff turned into a chase. The Fire Dragon soared into the sky with a majestic aura and dazzling fire columns, continuously pursuing Tang San and Mei Gongzi. Meanwhile, Tang San handled the flying while Mei Gongzi constantly summoned spatial doors to teleport the fire columns away.

The battle between the two sides was truly spectacular.

The Tang San and Mei Gongzi combination shifted from their previous individualist, hard-hitting style to a war of attrition based on perfect cooperation.

Tang San held tightly onto Mei Gongzi's legs as he flew through the air, while Mei Gongzi continuously experienced the spatial power at the god level, comprehending and manipulating the space.

The other two competition arenas were even affected by their battle. The competition platform was two hundred meters in diameter, but once they took to the sky, their flight range far exceeded that. As a result, the other two matches had to stay on the platform. Who would be crazy enough to fight for airspace with the two pairs duking it out like that?

It was the Dragon Flower Duo fighting the Peacock Princess and the human who’d just beaten a Behemoth! Which one of the others could just ignore the pillars of fire and the random spatial doors?

The two sides continued their chase, one spitting flames and the other dodging them. For the time being, there was no clear winner.

"Big Brother, how should I bind them? My spiritual power is running low," Mei Gongzi said softly to Tang San while continuously summoning spatial doors.

In terms of bloodline power consumption, they did have an advantage, but Mei Gongzi was now controlling space at a level far beyond her own. Tang San could enhance her perception of space by transferring over his own internal energy through the Peacock Transformation imprint, but he couldn't solve her spiritual power consumption problem. Well, he could use his divine consciousness to help her, but that would be too obvious.

"Every time you open a space door, you connect to a single spatial coordinate. How about you try to reopen all those you opened and closed, since you already know the coordinate? That ought to do the trick."

Although Tang San was more than willing to keep carrying her, he had to consider her endurance. They couldn't afford to overdo it.

"Reopen all of them at once?" Mei Gongzi was taken aback, but then she understood what he was hinting at. "Let me see... "

As she spoke, she started to act. The Celestial Plume in her hand generated motes of silver light that filled the air, and a strange scene unfolded.

One illusory space door after another silently appeared—the doors she had previously opened to teleport the fire columns. Suddenly, hundreds of space doors floated in the air above the entire competition arena.

The dense fire element in the air seemed to find hundreds of outlets, quickly dissipating, causing the redness in the sky to diminish and the temperature to drop sharply.

The female Fire Dragon immediately sensed something was wrong. She let out a mighty dragon roar and flapped her wings with full force, charging toward one of the spatial doors.

The Celestial Plume danced in the air, forming a circle of silver light, faintly carrying the essence of the Mysterious Circles of Heaven. The coordinates left when the space doors were opened were suddenly connected under the guidance of the Celestial Plume. Each spatial coordinate was linked to the next one in a perfect chain.

"Converge!"

One by one, the illusory space doors were shattered by the Fire Dragon and melted by the flames of the Scorching Sunflower, but more and more space doors appeared, the powerful spatial force creating layers of bindings, making the Fire Dragon's wings stiff and unable to flap.

Among their desperate struggles, the spatial doors shattered one after the other, but the Dragon Knight Duo also fell from the skies.

Mei Gongzi's face was pale at this moment. Even with Tang San's support, exerting control over space to such an incredible extent had still exhausted her. Both her spiritual power and bloodline power were weakened.

But at that moment, a very peculiar force suddenly surged from Tang San. The surrounding space-time seemed to become calm and serene again. The spatial rifts caused by the battle were instantly repaired, and Mei Gongzi felt a strong space elemental energy mixed with another strange energy flow into her body, giving her a sense of fullness.

Silver light burst from the Celestial Plume, and the power of her spatial binding suddenly increased.

With a loud boom, the Dragon Knight Duo crashed heavily onto the platform, resulting in a big impact crater. The dragon's body was massive and obviously heavy, and although she was incredibly tough, she was left seeing stars. As for her defensively inept companion, even less needed to be said—he was lucky to even stay conscious.

Mei Gongzi wanted to ask Asura what that power was, but the next moment, she felt him flap his wings, bringing them down rapidly. With the incredible speed of the Golden Roc, Tang San reached the Scorching Sunflower almost the instant they landed, while the latter was dazed from the impact.

His hand, which the entire audience was familiar with and focused on, reached the Scorching Sunflower. It only took a gentle touch—the Scorching Sunflower trembled violently, then the vines and sunflowers collapsed one by one. He returned to human form, writhing in pain.

At the same time, Mei Gongzi naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity. The Celestial Plume in her right hand directly touched the Fire Dragon’s head, binding it with spatial power.

The match was over!
