--- Chapter 496 ---
Facing the mysterious Soul Douluo, Kakashi's mouth couldn't help but twitch uncontrollably.
"..."
You're an eight-ringed spirit master, and I'm just a pitiful Spirit Elder. This is no different than bullying .
However, Kakashi has no ti to be mad.
The masked man had already summoned his Martial Soul. It was a jet-black wakizashi with a wrapped white cloth handle, looking rough yet refined simultaneously.
The wakizashi's blade was coated with a sharp white aura as the masked man slashed out, sending a burst of energy.
Swoosh!
Kakashi instinctively pulled his kunai and coated it with Lightning Chakra, which was a big mistake. As the masked man's energy attack t with Kakashi's kunai, the latter's eyes widened in disbelief.
Bam!
Kakashi was sent flying, gasping for air. He crashed to the ground and rolled a few tis before stopping.
"Damn it." Kakashi cursed behind his face mask. That energy attack was dangerous.
Although Kakashi can defend it, the residual burst from the energy shakes his body inside and out.
And it wasn't a pleasant experience.
Kakashi hurriedly circulated his Spirit Energy instead of Chakra this ti, allowing his condition to recover faster. His breathing slowed down as his nerves soothed.
Crackle!
A three-headed beast made of cyan-colored lightning appeared beside Kakashi, nudging him gently.
"It's alright. I'm okay." Kakashi replied bitterly.
He's clearly not.
Kakashi couldn't see the possibility of winning against a Soul Douluo.
However, Kakashi wouldn't admit defeat that easily.
He regulated his breathing and looked up, seeing the masked man point his wakizashi at him.
Kakashi possessed his beast-type Martial Soul, causing a shiny yet faint white fur to grow on his upper body and cyan lightning to dance around his body. His eyes also beco blood red like his Martial Soul.
The masked man was intrigued. Seeing another Martial Soul Possession is a marvelous experience indeed.
If the masked man had not learned about Spirit Master Cultivation, he would have assud this transformation was due to a unique Kekkei Genkai!
Kakashi's mind is plagued by beastly instinct.
Auuu!
He howled at the sky, showcasing his animalistic side. To a rational man like Kakashi, this was a bit embarrassing.
But Gu Yuena's advice back then helped him a lot. Beastly instinct would help Kakashi improve his sense, allowing him to grasp higher-level spatial awareness and develop a sixth or seventh sense.
The masked man curiously observed Kakashi but suddenly noticed his figure blurring into thin air.
Swoosh!
Kakashi appeared behind the masked man without warning, launching a decisive punch.
The punch was packed with imnse strength.
BAM!
The masked man adjusted his stance and crossed his arms, receiving the blow calmly. In fact, most of the force diverted to the ground below, and the remaining wasn't enough to injure him.
Still, the masked man applauds Kakashi's power. As expected from beast-type Spirit Masters, their physical enhancent is generally superior to tool-type Martial Souls.
Despite the beast-type advantage, the masked man's physical strength is much better than Kakashi's. The sa thing applied to his spirit energy and ntal power.
After all, his cultivation base is that of Soul Douluo. He's just one great realm away from Title Douluo!
Kakashi wasn't disappointed by his attack's failure. He used body flicker and disappeared with chaotic lightning again.
The masked man chuckled, "How childish."
He stomped the ground and sent shockwaves in all directions, exposing Kakashi's location imdiately.
Kakashi knew his 'trick' would get discovered sooner or later. His 1st Spirit Ring lit up, causing the electricity around him to intensify extrely and his hair to spike up.
Kakashi's 2nd Spirit Ring also lit up, condensing a cyan halo with a wolf-head mark above his head.
"Raiton: Shiden!"
(A/N: Lightning Release: Purple Lightning)
Then, the halo turned deep purple.
"Oh?" The masked man was surprised. He didn't expect Kakashi to apply Nature Transformation and Shape Transformation into Spirit Energy Manipulation, improving the effect of his Spirit Skills.
Of course, the fact that Kakashi's Martial Soul has a lightning attribute contributed to this outco. On top of that, the twin-headed lightning beast generated all this electricity naturally.
Kakashi doesn't use a single drop of Chakra or Spirit Energy.
Unlike when using 'rigid' Ninjutsu, he can freely manipulate this lightning and enhance it based on his understanding.
"Shiden: Raikiri!" Kakashi's hand was coated with sharp electricity.
The masked man also drew his wakizashi and slashed at the incoming Raikiri.
BOOOOOOM!
They separated and stared at each other.
The area where their attacks clashed currently has a wide crater over fifteen ters wide.
"Tsk." Kakashi clicked his tongue in amazent. Who would have thought his newly developed technique so destructive?
Yet his attack didn't pose a threat to the masked man. As expected of a Soul Douluo.
But this made Kakashi regain his confidence.
'Well, let's see what I can do next.' Kakashi thought cunningly, preparing another attack. The purple halo above his head flickered and coated his body with purple lightning.
Wooosh!
"Shiden: Lightning Armor!"
Kakashi kicked the ground, and his speed increased by a leap. His 3rd Spirit Ring lit up, transforming the surrounding electricity into a storm of pure energy.
The masked man shook his head helplessly, "Given your current strength, having this much achievent is comndable."
"But you really abandoned Hatake-style Swordsmanship, huh? Aih, what a sha..."
"It seems I have to wake you up a little."
The masked man lifted his wakizashi and stared at the blade with a faint smile behind his mask. White light gathered around the edge, giving it a strange luster.
Kakashi was stumped. He could feel the masked man's aura suddenly shift for the worse. Yes, the worse for him.
The masked man swung his wakizashi casually, sweeping the area with an intense sharpness.
Kakashi sucked a cold breath and gritted his teeth. "Shiden: Lightning Armor 300%!"
The lightning aura around Kakashi's body becos more solid.
BOOM!
Faster!
Faster!
Faster!
Kakashi's speed beca faster than one's eyes could react, dodging the masked man's attack. Even an agility-type Spirit Sage might not be as quick as him.
At the sa ti, another set of three black Spirit Rings appeared around Kakashi.
"Foolish child, you actually have another Martial Soul..." The masked man couldn't help but laugh. This is indeed unexpected.
Kakashi's eyes returned to their blackness, and animal markings appeared on his face. He could see the world from many different perspectives and the essence of the energy in the air.
Using all these factors, Kakashi could also see the masked man's Martial Soul in more detail.
He noticed the masked man's smooth hand coordination in handling his wakizashi and was shocked to find no Spirit Energy fluctuation.
Wait, what have you been using to fight all this ti?
"As slow as I rember, Kakashi." A teasing voice ca out from the masked man.
BOOOOOOOOM!!
Kakashi's body froze as a sharp light blasted him like a truck, sending him flying ten ters away.
Cough!
Kakashi choked, feeling his chest stuffed with unknown energy before it dissipated naturally.
He stared at the masked man in a ss, "H-How could be here..."
The masked man removed his mask, revealing his handso face. "Yo, my dear son," he said.
"Long ti no see..."
"..." Kakashi.
Damn, you're really coming back to life just to beat up your son!
How irresponsible!
Sakumo chuckled, "What's with that look? You look like soone who just saw a ghost."
"Dear, you don't have to beat Kakashi that badly, right? What if my son got a permanent injury?" Another voice echoed as a feminine figure appeared beside Sakumo.
"M-Mom!" Kakashi's eyes reddened upon seeing this woman.
Airi smiled, "Aww, my son!"
She hurriedly walked to Kakashi and hugged him tightly, glaring at Sakumo for the 'harsh' treatnt.
Sakumo scratched his cheek helplessly.
'I didn't beat him that badly.' He thought. Well, soone needs to console his wife soon.
Kakashi needs a few monts to accept this. "You two are really alive. I can't believe this..."
"I know revival is possible, but the price. Not to ntion the Pure Land's rules."
"It's all thanks to Yunlong-sama," Airi replied with a small smile.
"He revived not only us but also thousands more people."
"I see..." Kakashi sighed. If it was Yunlong, then it's understandable.
Sakumo sat beside them and said, "Well, let's enjoy this while we have ti. After all, Yunlong-sama has given our family ti to reunite with each other."
"I'm sure you have a lot of questions."
"Haha..." Kakashi replied with a small laugh. "You're right."
"I have many things to share with you..."
At that mont, Kakashi's eyes were a bit moist.
