Chapter 9 Thunderous Movement
Chapter 9 Thunderous Movement
"My name is Kong Tianxu."
"He was using an alias all along?" Everyone was stunned by Kong Tianxu's words, but Ye Handong's reaction didn't slow down at all. His Xuan Turtle Martial Soul instantly possessed him, thick and rough skin completely covering his face, making his originally honest face look extremely ferocious. His sixth soul ring lit up, and his palm, which was reaching towards Kong Tianxu's head, suddenly turned black and slammed down with a powerful aura.
The sixth soul skill, Xuanming Defense. An advanced version of Xu Yunxiao's fifth soul skill, Xuanming Hand, combining attack, defense, and control. Now unleashed by Ye Handong through his ten-thousand-year soul ring, its power is far greater than before, making it his most powerful technique.
Xu Yunxiao's heart burned with excitement. The Golden Tortoise Shell Soul Ring was indeed precious, but it only offered a very good chance of advancing the Xuanming Turtle Martial Soul to the Xuanwu level, while the Soul Bone was practically a certainty.
Even if the first person fails, the soul bone can be absorbed again, which means that in the future, the sect will definitely have a stable inheritance of the Xuanwu bloodline.
What does such a top-tier martial soul that can be stably passed down represent? Just look at the Body Sect, one of the three most powerful forces on the continent, known as the number one sect in the world.
As for Kong Tianxu, he'd have no choice but to go to the underworld to keep that golden hawksbill turtle company. Let some unknown kid go out and spread the news? Don't be ridiculous.
Although he had saved the young lady and contributed greatly during the Soul Hunt, he would not take any risks for the sake of the sect's great future. Moreover, with their personnel, even if Kong Tianxu's fire element was strong, there was absolutely no possibility of any accidents.
Despite this, Xu Yunxiao felt a vague unease, which was why he had Ye Handong take the lead.
Ye Handong's eyes were indifferent. In his opinion, even if the opponent's martial soul was somewhat peculiar, he would have no chance of escaping from such a close distance under his full-force Soul Emperor attack.
Feeling the powerful defensive and strength amplification brought by the ten-thousand-year soul skill, he seemed to already see the wonderful scene of Kong Tianxu's head being smashed by his palm.
That's how it should have been, until a resounding dragon's roar.
Ye Handong's body suddenly trembled, his Xuan Turtle Martial Soul shuddering violently in fear. Unlike the suppression of aura between its own kind that came with the Golden Tortoise, this was an absolute crushing on a higher level, as if awakening some kind of taboo etched into its genes by millions of years of dominance. Every cell in his body was emitting a scream that wanted to escape.
How could that be? That was just a Grand Soul Master! Ye Handong roared inwardly, his anger driving him to involuntarily look up—
What met his gaze was an even more indifferent pair of silver vertical pupils.
And a bolt of lightning even faster than him.
His last light in this life.
With a "poof," accompanied by the sharp crack of thunder compressed to its extreme, Kong Tianxu's left-hand elemental creed pierced the head of this defensive Soul Emperor who was in his strongest Soul Skill state.
Now, the top of his head is even more pointed.
First Soul Skill, Mad Demon Lightning Strike! Elemental Creed, Overload Circuit! Kong Tianxu had been secretly gathering his strength the moment he discovered the soul bone. He was well aware of the importance of a golden tortoiseshell head soul bone to the Xuanming Sect. In the Star Dou Great Forest, where the law of the jungle prevails, he would never trust any stranger.
The reason for waiting until now to make a move is simply to find a better opportunity.
The innate skill of the super soul beast Thunderous Vulture, combined with a top-tier level six soul tool, unleashed a terrifying burst of power comparable to a full-force strike at the seventh ring level. This instantly shattered the protective soul skill of the Xuan Turtle Soul Emperor, and the violent lightning element spread along the blade, completely destroying his brain tissue.
In a single exchange, Kong Tianxu overcame a nearly thirty-level difference in soul power to forcefully kill a seasoned sixth-ring expert.
Xu Yunxiao, that old tortoise, is truly cunning and shrewd; he made Ye Handong take the bullet for him. Kong Tianxu secretly lamented this.
He was confident that with the defensive capabilities of the Elemental Creed, even a defensive-type seventh-ring Soul Saint would not be able to withstand his long-charged attack without using his Martial Soul True Body. At that time, the remaining people would be much easier to deal with.
A brilliant silver light suddenly appeared between his brows, and Kong Tianxu bent down slightly, an ancient and majestic aura emanating from him.
He flung aside Ye Handong's tattered corpse, which resembled a sack, and stomped down hard, leaving a dent in the ground. With a loud dragon's roar, he shot towards Xu Yuanxi like an arrow released from a bow.
In those few short movements, his body had undergone tremendous changes.
A layer of dazzling silver dragon scales spread rapidly across its body, growing all the way to its lower jaw, leaving only its head uncovered. The scales were rhomboid in shape, shimmering with iridescent colors under the light, like countless mirrors.
His already slender body grew even taller, making him look like a twenty-year-old youth. His arms, including every joint in his hands, became extremely thick, completely covered by thick scales, forming a pair of dragon claws.
This is the Silver Dragon, the strongest super martial soul on the continent, standing at the pinnacle!
Three spirit rings simultaneously appeared behind him, displaying the same noble luster against the backdrop of silver scales.
Purple, purple, purple.
All of them were thousand-year soul rings. The third soul ring was a deep, abyss-like purple, with a faint hint of black within its deep purple hue. Clearly, although it wasn't a ten-thousand-year soul ring, it was at least nine thousand years old.
If his martial soul isn't fire element, then what is it?
The Xuanming Sect members stared in utter horror at the silver dragon scales that rapidly appeared on Kong Tianxu's body and the three purple soul rings beneath his feet that were beyond their comprehension. The ancient majesty that was emanating from him made their proud Xuanming Turtle Martial Soul tremble involuntarily.
Xu Yuanxi retreated violently in disbelief. Kong Tianxu had actually made everyone, including Elder Yunxiao, misjudge his cultivation level! He was no more than thirteen years old and already had the cultivation of a Soul Venerable. What was he doing in the Star Dou Great Forest? Had he already reached level forty?
"He launched a sneak attack using his soul tool! He's just a mere Soul Master, what are you standing there for? Follow me, form the formation!"
Xu Yunxiao shouted, his words were resolute, but he also felt a chill when he saw the gleaming blade in Kong Tianxu's hand.
Like everyone else, he couldn't tell what Kong Tianxu's martial spirit was. He could only vaguely guess that it was some kind of dragon based on the diamond-shaped scales and the pressure of his aura.
After being reprimanded by Xu Yunxiao, the Soul Kings finally reacted and released their Martial Souls to form a strange formation. Xu Yunxiao stepped into the air and suddenly slammed down the ever-growing Xuanming Shield from directly above the formation's core.
