After the Emperor Sacred Spear was imbued with a spirit, it inherited the Dragon Might and all elemental attributes of the Nine Bend Vine Dragon.
The Nine Bend Vine Dragon itself possessed life and wood elemental attributes.
The second Spirit Ring, originating from the Kongqing Bamboo, granted the Nine Bend Vine Dragon Martial Soul the space elemental attribute.
The fourth Spirit Ring, originating from the Thunderclap Nether Vine, granted the Nine Bend Vine Dragon Martial Soul the lightning and destruction elemental attributes.
The fifth Spirit Ring, originating from the Green Wood Twin Lotus, granted the Nine Bend Vine Dragon Martial Soul the wind and water elemental attributes.
Therefore, the current Nine Bend Vine Dragon Martial Soul simultaneously possessed the power of seven elemental attributes: life, destruction, lightning, space, wood, wind, and water.
As Soul Power and mental power were injected, seven-colored streams of light symbolizing these seven elemental powers bloomed from the blue-gold long spear.
At the same time, on the shaft of the blue-gold long spear, the cyan dragon-shaped patterns formed after the Nine Bend Vine Dragon spirit imbue seemed to come alive, moving all over the shaft.
A dragon's roar seemed to echo, and a vast, pure Dragon Might was released from these cyan dragon-shaped patterns.
The pale golden mental power merged with this Dragon Might, transforming from the *virtual to the real* and condensing a magnificent Five-Clawed Golden Dragon above the spear shaft.
When the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon appeared, the blue-gold long spear in Lin Rong's hand also dissolved into specks of starlight and vanished into the air.
The seven-colored streams of light symbolizing the seven great elemental powers were rendered onto the bright yellow scales of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, making it look dazzling and radiant.
A clear dragon roar echoed throughout the living room. The Five-Clawed Golden Dragon coiled around Lin Rong, its colossal body encircling and protecting him.
The dragon roar of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon contained Dragon Might and mental shock, causing Yang Wudi, who had been locked on as an enemy, to feel his mind shake upon hearing it.
Under the effect of the first Spirit Skill, "Shock," Yang Wudi's momentum, which had reached its peak, began to falter due to the dragon's roar.
This made him inwardly curse his luck.
The decline in his own momentum would inevitably affect the power of his subsequent attacks.
Thus, with the combat instincts honed over many years, Yang Wudi made what he believed to be the most correct choice.
The moment his momentum began to falter, and just as his peak momentum had only dropped slightly, he unleashed his strongest attack, albeit with a slight flaw.
Suddenly, the Soul Breaking Spear in Yang Wudi's hand shot through the air, transforming into a black flame as thick as an arm and hurtling directly towards Lin Rong.
As a pure offensive weapon Martial Soul, the Soul Breaking Spear's attack power was enough to make ninety-nine percent of Martial Souls in the world envious.
Moreover, compared to a Weapon Spirit True Body, the amplification of a Weapon Spirit True Body was almost entirely concentrated on the weapon Martial Soul itself, with only a minuscule portion amplifying the Spirit Master.
This was also the reason why the power of a Weapon Spirit True Body was superior to that of a Beast Spirit True Body.
The attack unleashed by Yang Wudi, amplified by eight Spirit Skills including the Weapon Spirit True Body, possessed such formidable power that even a Titled Douluo would need to avoid its edge and dare not confront it head-on.
However, facing this attack, Lin Rong had no intention of dodging; instead, he planned to meet it head-on.
From the neck of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, a jade-white, crescent-shaped dragon scale transformed into a massive Dragon Scale Shield in mid-air.
The black flame spear cut through the air, emitting a sharp, piercing, and enormous sound, striking the Dragon Scale Shield the moment it formed.
Instantly, the entire living room fell silent.
The immense pressure generated by the confrontation between the black flame Soul Breaking Spear and the Dragon Scale Shield suppressed all surrounding disturbances.
After a moment, a sharp cracking sound was heard.
Under the gaze of everyone in the living room, the tip of the Soul Breaking Spear was covered in fine cracks, as if it would shatter at any moment.
"Not good!"
Seeing his Martial Soul damaged, Yang Wudi immediately disregarded the outcome of the match. He quickly used his Soul Power to control the Soul Breaking Spear from a distance, intending to withdraw it into his body for recuperation.
Witnessing this scene, Lin Rong was also surprised.
He had merely intended to defend, but due to the immense power of the Soul Breaking Spear itself, after being repelled by the Dragon Scale Shield, it had nearly shattered the spear tip.
Damage to a weapon-type Martial Soul was not a significant matter.
After all, even if it shattered into pieces, it could be restored by retracting it into the Spirit Master's body and nurturing it for a month or two.
It was only Yang Wudi, this martial arts fanatic, who treated the Soul Breaking Spear as his own lifeblood, that chose to stop out of concern.
With matters having come to this point, Lin Rong understood that the battle would not continue. He retracted his Spirit Rings.
The Dragon Scale Shield and the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon also dissolved into specks of starlight and vanished into the air.
Amidst the countless specks of starlight, the blue-gold Emperor Sacred Spear and the Nine Bend Vine Dragon, manifested by the fifth Spirit Skill Dragon Soul Clone, respectively transformed into streams of light and returned to Lin Rong and the Nine Bend Vine Dragon's bodies.
"Patriarch Yang, if you stop now, this match will count as your loss."
As he spoke, Lin Rong looked around and found that the living room, ravaged by the battle's aftermath, had nowhere to sit.
This was because the tables and chairs that had been placed in the living room were also shattered during the process of being blown away by the residual force.
In a corner of the living room, the old butler saw this and walked behind Lin Rong, taking a chair from his Spirit Tool for him to sit and rest.
"Naturally," Yang Wudi replied, his tone slightly low.
"My strongest attack couldn't break your defense. If the match had continued, I would have been the one to lose."
"I always keep my word, and I'm not one to back down from a bet. I will not go back on my promise."
"It's just..."
Upon reaching this point, Yang Wudi's tone became hesitant, and the words he wanted to say could not be spoken.
Lin Rong could tell at a glance what Yang Wudi was hesitating about. With a flash of light in his hand, the Aromatic Silk Beauty reappeared.
Sniffing the faint, elegant fragrance drifting through the air, Lin Rong asked, "The Aromatic Silk Beauty, you want this?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Yang Wudi nodded frantically, his previously low voice instantly turning excited.
"The Aromatic Silk Beauty, this Immortal Grade Medicinal Herb is truly too important to me."
"With the Aromatic Silk Beauty's immunity to all poisons, I would dare to try refining those extremely dangerous medicines recorded in our clan's ancient texts."
"Its floral scent can also cause many medicines to mutate and exert even more powerful effects. For us in the Breaking Clan, this is the most precious treasure in the world."
"Therefore, I am willing to exchange anything I possess for this Aromatic Silk Beauty."
Dugu Bo, who was watching the spectacle from the side, immediately understood upon hearing these words, recalling what had happened at the Tang Sect banquet three years ago.
No wonder his poison had been ineffective against the adult back then; it was because of this large purplish-pink flower.
Immune to all poisons, this thing was simply the bane of all poison Spirit Masters in the world.
