Douluo Dalu The Story Of Sheng Feilong - Chapter 212 'sAbsolute Light's And 'sAbsolute Control's

Song Weihan took a moment to calm down before he could reply to Sheng Feilong. The power of Sheng Feilong’s True Avatar really came as a pleasant surprise to him; Especially the pressure he feels as soon as he looks at it. “Un. You did well. Your True Avatar seems… powerful, top say the least.”

With a smile on his face, Sheng Feilong took the compliment, proudly looking his own True Avatar up and down for a few more moments, then cancelling it out; The drain of Soul Power was seriously immense. He took a deep breath after deactivating it, then Song Weihan spoke to him again. “So, mind telling me about its power?”

The latter threw a pill over to Sheng Feilong, one which Sheng Feilong judged to be meant for restoring Soul Power after a quick test using his Spirit Power. He swallowed the pill, then spoke about the True Avatar with sparkling eyes. “It’s name is rather plain; Radiant Emperor True Avatar. Though its power is incredible.”

Song Weihan raised an eyebrow, prompting Sheng Feilong to continue with a small smile. “You saw the golden light radiating off of it and illuminating the whole hall, right, Master?” Again, Song Weihan simply nodded his head, the light could definitely not be missed; In return, Sheng Feilong smiled. “My True Avatar’s power can be summed up in a single sentence: ‘Everything the light touches is my kingdom; My rule shall not end until the light extinguishes.’”

Sheng Feilong paused, still smiling, while Song Weihan frowned. “What do you mean?” Sheng Feilong scratched his cheek for a moment, trying to find the right words. “It’s hard to put into words… Basically, its a huge domain like ability with the properties of ‘Absolute Light’ and ‘Absolute Control’; As long as the emperor spirit radiates light, I am in perfect control over everything within.”

By the time he stopped talking, Song Weihan’s eyes had widened to the size of saucers with his mouth sluggishly hanging open, an expression of complete disbelief on his face. “Master?” Song Weihan snapped out of his daze when he heard Sheng Feilong. Staring at the latter he started frowning deeply once again. “Are you serious? A True Avatar that is a Domain ability? And you are sure about the part of it possessing the properties of ‘Absolute Light’ and ‘Absolute Control’? Especially the latter; You’re a 100% certain of that?!”

Sheng Feilong was taken aback by Song Weihan’s sudden change in attitude, but soon nodded his head with a solemn expression. “Absolutely sure, Master. The ‘Absolute Light’ refers to the light radiated by the True Avatar and how hard it is to actually overpower it, while the ‘Absolute Control’ refers to the actual abilities; I can manipulate anything within its range, forcing it to bend to my will with my Spirit Power.”

“Feilong, are you aware what it the prefix ‘Absolute’ implies?” Song Weihan took a deep breath, staring at Sheng Feilong with a solemn expression. The latter simply nodded his head with a similarly serious expression. “‘Absolute’ refers to the creme de la crop of its attribute; ‘Absolute Light’, in this case, referring to the strongest kind of light, surpassing that of every other light attributed ability. It also means that this kind of element isn’t affected by the usual hierarchy of elements.”

Song Weihan nodded his head. “The most prominent example of this is the Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao’s Absolute Ice element; While normal ice is susceptible to melt from fire based abilities, the Absolute Ice is immune to any kind of flame, in fact, it can even freeze fire without any problems. The only exception being Absolute Fire, which is on the same level as the Absolute Ice.”

Sheng Feilong innocently nodded his head; The strength of Absolute Elements was something that every Soul Master knew. He understood how powerful the ‘Absolute Light’ of his True Avatar was, and was certain that the ‘Absolute Control’ property was similarly strong. Yet, Song Weihan sighed. “Then, do you also happen to know about Conceptual Absolutes?”

This time, Sheng Feilong was stumped. “Conceptual Absolutes..?” He scratched his cheek again, slightly embarrassed as this seemed to be something he should know, judging from the way Song Weihan reacted. However, after his answer, the latter only sighed again. “Conceptual Absolutes are the Absolute Elements of ‘Concepts’.”

As his disciple was still staring at him with an unknowing expression, Song Weihan decided to start from a step lower. “‘Concepts’ are similar to elements, but they describe something else. For example, ‘Strength’ is a concept. The same goes for ‘Speed’, or in your case, ‘Control’. Applying the same rule rule as with Absolute Elements, what do you think ‘Absolute Strength’ means?”

Sheng Feilong thought about the matter for a while, his brows furrowed. “Indomitable might? Unrivalled physical strength, enabling one to break every defence..?” He still didn’t understand where Song Weihan was going with this, but it slowly became apparent that there was a difference between Absolute Elements and Sheng Feilong’s Spirit Essence True Avatar’s ‘Absolute Control’.

“Correct. It can be aptly be summed up with the phrase ‘One fist to rule the world’, or its variations like ‘one sword’ or ‘one spear’. It describes the ultimate peak of a certain aspect, a height where no limits apply. Now, what if you apply that logic to the word ‘Control’?” Song Weihan still spoke in a solemn tone and it finally dawned on Sheng Feilong.

The latter swallowed dryly; Unlike strength or speed, the concept of control was somewhat more widespread than the former, thus, harder to grasp, but if he calculated it down to how his own form of control worked… “The Radiant Emperor True Avatar allows me to declare a Domain, my kingdom over which I rule, using the property of ‘Absolute Light’ to determine its borders. Then, it uses the properties of my Spirit Essence – my strong Spirit Power and mental capabilities – to issue ‘commands’…”

Song Weihan remained silent while Sheng Feilong drew his final conclusions. After remaining silent for a while as well, the latter stared at Song Weihan with a solemn and shocked expression. “…Combined with the concept of ‘Absolute Control’… the ‘commands’ will be irrefutable. If someone’s strength doesn’t vastly surpass my own… they’ll be completely helpless…”

A heavy sigh escaped Song Weihan’s mouth before he looked at Sheng Feilong again. The solemness had somewhat faded, but he was still highly serious about the current situation. “Can you use your True Avatar again? I want to see how strong these ‘commands’ truly are. While they might not be able to affect me, I’m the perfect person to measure their strength.”

Sheng Feilong nodded and the both of them went towards the middle of the arena. Song Weihan stood about 30 metres away from him, while Sheng Feilong concentrated a while before summoning his True Avatar. He could instantly feel his Soul Power being drained out of his body and made sure to test its power quickly.

A sharp glint flashed through his eyes as he stared at Song Weihan, with a single hand stretched out towards Song Weihan, he powerfully issued a command, prompting the Radiant Emperor True Avatar to take the same pose as him. The red, runic symbols all over its body lit up while its eyes flashed as well, focusing on Song Weihan as well. “Suppress.”

Bracing himself for an impact, Song Weihan had started circulating his Soul Power carefully as soon as Sheng Feilong summoned his True Avatar. The golden light radiating off of the emperor spirit washed over him without leaving any feeling at all, as if it was truly just a insignificant source of light. Moments later, the command was issued and Song Weihan’s pupils constricted.

As an expert in the high levels of the Spirit Domain Realm, he was highly sensitive to any changes in the energy in the air, especially so when it came to energy being released by enemies and allies. The moment Sheng Feilong uttered the command for the True Avatar to act on, the energy in the whole training hall was stirred into motion. All of it became increasingly dense and heavy, forcing an incredible pressure onto Song Weihan.

Moreover, with the True Avatar staring at Song weihan, the suppressive energy got all the more powerful; Pulling most of the rigin energy in the training hall and condensing it on his position to create an even stronger effect. Thus far, he could still hold on without a problem; The reason he was so shocked was because of the way the energy was controlled solely by Sheng Feilong’s and the True Avatar’s Spirit Power; There was no Soul Power involved whatsoever.

‘His Spirit Power is affecting the physical plane..?! Moreover, its control over the area truly is absolute…’ Song Weihan was still resisting the pressure with relative ease, but the energy surrounding him was completely locked down; He couldn’t absorb nor manipulate any of it and could only rely on the Soul Power in his own body.

Seeing Song Weihan so unimpressed with whats going on, Sheng Feilong took a deep breath and lifted his second arm to the same height as the first, still staring at Song Weihan. He once again gathered his Soul Power and Spirit Power before repeating his command. “Suppress!”

The Radiant Emperor True Avatar moved in sync with him again, lifting up its second arm before its eyes flashed once more. Within moments, the ground beneath Song Weihan’s feet cracked, with cobweb-like cracks spreading outwards. A few more seconds later, the suppressive energy on his shoulders was so powerful that he was nearly forced to kneel over and he, a powerful Titled Douluo on the verge of reaching the Hyper Douluo boundary, actually had to bring forth his Soul Rings to resist the pressure!
