Starting from the young master of Haotian Sect.

Chapter 12: Killing Martial Spirit

Tang San shouted in his heart, and his second martial soul emerged. When he leaped forward, he stepped on the ground.

There was a loud bang, and finally, Tang San and the saber-toothed hound collided heavily with each other. In an instant, the saber-toothed hound's body was suddenly blown away and knocked away at a faster speed, and blood and flesh spurted out like a rainstorm.

The saber-toothed hound was hit by Tang San, with all its bones broken and flesh and blood flying everywhere. It didn't even have a chance to scream.

With a bang, finally, the body of the saber-toothed hound lay in a pool of blood, and at this time, it was motionless.

The saber-toothed hound, with a cultivation base of nearly a hundred years, was not something that even a great soul master could easily defeat, not to mention that Tang San was only a first-ring soul master. Unfortunately, it encountered Tang San.

"This second martial soul does have an effect similar to a beast martial soul. Even without a spirit ring, activating the martial soul can significantly improve physical strength."

Tang San rolled up his sleeves and looked at his left arm. His entire arm seemed to be wrapped in red blue silver grass, and was covered with red lines.

Not to mention Tang San, even his father and uncle were very confused about the second martial soul, because Tang San's second martial soul had exceeded the scope of ordinary martial souls.

Conventional martial spirits are divided into two categories, beast martial spirits and weapon martial spirits, and Tang San’s second martial spirit is neither like a beast martial spirit nor like a weapon martial spirit. It is like a brand, and the brand will only change when it is activated.

Just when Tang San was thinking about his second martial soul, with a buzzing sound, a white spirit ring floated out from the body of the saber-toothed hound. This was a saber-toothed hound with a cultivation base of nearly a hundred years. For an ordinary civilian spirit master, it was already a very good spirit ring. Of course, Tang San looked down on this spirit ring.

The moment the spirit ring appeared, a tiny wisp of red mist floated out from it, as if drawn by an attraction, and drifted to the back of Tang San's left hand. The emblem of his second spirit glowed red as it absorbed the mist.

Tang San was not surprised to see this scene, because he had discovered when he attached his first soul ring four years ago that his second martial soul seemed to be able to absorb certain things, and these red gases could not only enhance his soul power, but also allow the second martial soul to gradually awaken.

"This should be the murderous aura that father mentioned. Perhaps the fighting is not intense enough. This is too little."

It is not without reason that Tang San specifically emphasized that he had to train alone. After several years of exploration, he found that his second martial soul needed to be fought rather than slaughtered.

The murderous aura that can be obtained from a one-sided massacre like the one just now is very little, almost negligible.

After removing the murderous aura, Tang San continued on his way. Not long after he went, he was surrounded by a group of soul beasts because of the smell of blood on his body. He deliberately got his hands stained with blood in order to attract the soul beasts.

"Coyotes are social soul beasts. They are ferocious by nature, like to eat people and are aggressive. Each tribe is ruled by a wolf king, with at least a dozen and at most a hundred. A wolf pack usually cultivates for ten years, and a wolf king cultivates for a hundred years." The moment Tang San saw the appearance of the soul beast, he knew what kind of soul beast it was.

The sound of leaves shaking was heard, and more and more coyotes appeared, surrounding and trapping Tang San. At this time, Tang San was already trapped in the wolf pack.

"It takes ten to a hundred years for a coyote to cultivate, and five hundred years for a wolf king to cultivate, but it's still not enough." Even though he was trapped in a wolf pack, Tang San remained calm, shook his head and said.

Awooo! In response to Tang San’s arrogant appearance, a coyote with fifty years of cultivation howled and instantly pounced on him, biting Tang San’s throat.

With a whoosh, a flash of purple light appeared in Tang San's eyes. In the world of the Purple Demon Eye, the pouncing hyena appeared in slow motion; even its veins and heartbeat were visible. He activated the Mysterious Jade Hand, his palm instantly becoming as hard as a rock, as white as jade. Transforming his palm into a blade, he delivered a fatal blow, slicing open the hyena's throat. Blood splattered, and the hyena, lying on the ground, didn't even have a chance to convulse. Fast, ruthless, and precise—a single, fatal strike!
As a trace of murderous aura penetrated into the martial soul, the howling of wolves resounded throughout the forest. The surrounding coyotes went crazy, and in an instant, a group of coyotes pounced on Tang San.

"Although you are still not enough to make me feel the need for a fight, it doesn't matter. I can use you to practice Ghost Shadow Mirage." Tang San stared with his eyes, let out a long howl, and his feet became like the wind. In an instant, Tang San dragged a long shadow and shuttled among the wolves with incredible skills.

Tang San transformed his hand into a knife, and moved through the wolf pack like a ghost. His Purple Demon Eye could see through their weaknesses and movements. With the sound of cutting, one knife and one wolf were killed. Tang San's figure was so fast that it was impossible to see clearly. With each knife, he instantly cut off the throat of a coyote.

Cutting the throat, piercing the heart, extracting the marrow, splitting the head, every blow is fatal.

In the wolf pack, Tang San was like a killing god, killing to his heart's content. Before long, there were mountains of wolf corpses all around, blood flowing like a river, and the smell of blood was pungent!

White spirit rings floated around, and wisps of blood-red blood energy drifted out from the coyote corpses around them, all of which were absorbed by Tang San's killing spirit.

Following a wail, the last wolf king who had cultivated for five hundred years let out a scream, and after a few moves, raised his head high.

Finally, the wolf king's yellow hundred-year soul ring appeared, and when the greatest murderous aura was absorbed, this time Tang San finally felt a clear difference. The soul power in his body seemed to be satisfied and surged with joy.

Feeling the changes in the soul power in his body, Tang San also said in amazement: "This killing spirit is really magical. The killing aura absorbed can even drive up my soul power."

Just as Tang San was feeling the power of the Killing Spirit, suddenly, the ground tore apart, and a thick black shadow attacked from behind!

"I've discovered you a long time ago."

A sneak attack? How could Tang San not be on guard against sneak attacks? The moment his soul power was injected into the storage soul guide, a silver-white steel needle appeared in his hand.

With the storage ring soul guide, Tang San's hidden weapons can be placed inside the soul guide and can be used immediately when needed.

He dodged the sneak attack and attacked at the same time. A flash of silver light appeared and blood spurted out. The shadow that suddenly flashed out from the pile of fallen leaves froze behind Tang San. As the silver steel needle pierced the ground, a fist-sized wound was pierced through the forehead of the soul beast that attacked him.

This is not a coyote, but a soul beast that looks like a giant sandworm. Its entire body is covered with dark golden crystal segments. It has no eyes on its head, and its mouthparts are six-petaled and serrated, with seven or eight tentacles hidden inside. It was these sharp tentacles that had just launched a sneak attack.

"Sunset worm, you like to suck blood. You must have come here because you smelled the wolf blood on the ground. Unfortunately, I have noticed you a long time ago." Tang San slowly approached, retracted the silver steel needle, looked at the monster lying on the ground, and said with a leisurely smile.

When the Sunset Worm died, it didn't understand why it was killed in a counterattack, because its sneak attacks had always been successful. However, this time it didn't even have the chance to launch a second move. In the instant of the sneak attack, it was killed by Tang San.

It thought it could kill Tang San by surprise, but unexpectedly, it was killed by Tang San's hidden weapon instead.
