Douluo Dragon King: I am the Lord of the Abyss, the King of Eternal Night.

Chapter 198 Soaring Battle Intent, Demonic Transformation!

"Cheer up! Well done! Don't embarrass us!"

Looking at his grandson, Qian Gu Dongfeng whispered words of encouragement.

Meanwhile, Leng Yaozhu's cold voice rang out from the battlefield.

"The battle begins!"

As the voice faded, Qian Gu Zhangting and Jiang Xiu instantly summoned their martial spirits.

"Roar!" A high-pitched dragon roar resounded, and a thick giant club appeared in Qian Gu Zhangting's hand. This giant club exuded a sense of fearlessness, with a dazzling golden dragon coiled around it. The ferocious dragon head clung to the front of the giant club, and the scarlet dragon eyes emitted a shocking light.

This is the Panlong Staff that the Qian Gu family is so proud of. Legend has it that the original Panlong Staff imprisoned an evil dragon. Its martial spirit quality is extremely high, ranking among the top weapon martial spirits!

Immediately afterwards, six jet-black ten-thousand-year soul rings encircled the Panlong Staff, with the last two soul rings not rotating.

"Buzz!" A soft sound rang out, and the Shadow King appeared. Four deep soul rings rose from Jiang Xiu's feet, and his purple eyes turned into blood eyes, coldly staring at the Ancient Pavilion.

"Take this! Battle Spirit Amplified!"

With a roar, Qian Gu Zhang Ting activated his first soul skill, causing his overall aura to surge again, increasing by fifty percent. This was clearly an amplification-type soul skill.

"Rumble!"

Explosions echoed through the air as the Panlong Staff, accompanied by a ferocious whooshing sound, hurtled towards Jiang Xiu as the Ancient Pavilion hurtled down, accompanied by a resounding dragon roar.

Jiang Xiu's blood-red eyes flashed with a deep light. The Shadow King behind him suddenly flashed, raised his huge fists fiercely, and a layer of liquid-like black mist flowed on the surface of his fists, directly meeting Qian Gu Zhang Ting's Panlong Staff.

"Boom!"

A violent collision sound rang out instantly, the colors of earth yellow and darkness intertwined, and a wave of energy surged out instantly, stirring up the surrounding soul power and making it violent and turbulent.

In the blink of an eye, the Shadow King and the Dragon Staff clashed repeatedly, and thunderous sounds of fierce fighting echoed continuously.

"boom!"

Another fierce collision ensued, and the two, locked in a tense standoff, were pushed back from the center of the impact. Qian Gu Zhang Ting stood upright on the metal ground, looking at the Shadow King, who had turned into liquid and returned to Jiang Xiu's side, with some disbelief.

Is this really a Shadow Martial Soul? When did Shadow Martial Souls become so powerful?

Furthermore, Qian Gu Zhangting was shocked to discover that the power unleashed by the Shadow King was no less than his own after his cultivation was suppressed!

"As expected, his strength is not solid." Jiang Xiu looked at Qian Gu Zhang Ting, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

With his first probing, he had already sensed the approximate strength of Qian Gu Zhang Ting.

If we say that among the ancient families, the strongest is Qian Gu Die Ting and the most scheming is Qian Gu Dong Feng, then Qian Gu Zhang Ting is someone who has learned nothing from either of them.

"Drink! Shake the Heavens!" Qian Gu Zhangting seemed to have noticed Jiang Xiu's gaze. Enraged, he swung the Panlong Staff in his hand again, and his second soul ring lit up.

In an instant, the Panlong Staff burst forth with dazzling light, and six illusory and twisted dragon shadows appeared on its surface, all baring their fangs and claws, exuding unparalleled fighting spirit.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Qian Gu Zhangting held the Panlong Staff in both hands, and poured his violent soul power into it, instantly unleashing countless staff shadows that crashed down on Jiang Xiu like a burst of blood.

Jiang Xiu did not dodge at all. He suddenly clenched his right fist. As the dark golden light flashed, five sharp claws instantly broke through the flesh and blood, transforming into a three-meter-long giant claw, which was none other than the Dark Golden Terror Claw.

"Clang! Clang!"

A piercing metallic scraping sound rang out, and the dark gold terror claw seemed to tear everything apart, exuding an extremely sharp aura. Even the lights above the battlefield were intercepted and shattered. Suddenly, it clashed with the Panlong Staff, and dazzling sparks collided continuously.

At the same time, Jiang Xiu transformed his left palm into a fist, and a surge of rich blood energy continuously erupted, transforming into huge fist imprints that smashed towards the Ancient Pavilion.

The Shadow King attacked from a tricky angle, targeting the weakest point of the Ancient Pavilion each time. The six dragon shadows, gleaming with golden light, formed two against two, working together to resist the three attacks. Streams of light and shadow emerged, accompanied by loud dragon roars and sharp cries.

Although Qian Gu Zhangting is not as good as the old man of the Qian Gu family, he is far superior to other Soul Masters of the same level under the training of Qian Gu Dongfeng, not to mention he has a lot of combat experience.

Furthermore, Qian Gu Zhang Ting only suppressed his cultivation level, but his total soul power, which was close to that of a Soul Saint, was far greater than that of Jiang Xiu.

At first, Qian Gu Zhang Ting managed to resist, but as time went on, the six dragon shadows began to appear somewhat illusory.

"Hmph!" Qian Gu Zhangting snorted coldly, quickly realizing that he couldn't get entangled any longer. He needed to find an opportunity to defeat Jiang Xiu in one blow!
Immediately, Qian Gu Zhang Ting's second soul skill lit up again, and the Panlong Staff grew stronger once more. A powerful sweep temporarily blocked Jiang Xiu's attack, while he withdrew and retreated.

"I admit you're strong, but today you'll only lose to me!"

Qian Gu Zhangting let out a low shout, gripping the Panlong Staff tightly with both hands. A golden light rose from his body, and a unique intent gathered and emanated around him.

Without Jiang Xiu, he can pursue Na'er without any obstacles!
"I really like what Na'er once said: 'If the enemy is in my hands, he will either run away or be utterly defeated.'"

"I'm giving this to you today too!"

Jiang Xiu raised his eyes and said.

"Damn it!" Sensing Jiang Xiu's contempt, Qian Gu Zhang Ting no longer concealed his will, and his aura of fighting against heaven and earth surged instantly.

"Heavy as a mountain, breaking as a dragon, with a spirit as even as the heavens and the earth!"

With a low shout from Qian Gu Zhang Ting, a fierce fighting spirit burst forth, forcefully empowering the Panlong Staff, and his eyes were fixed solely on the Panlong Staff.

This is the battle will of the ancient family. Although the Ancient Pavilion has not been fully formed, more than ten years of cultivation have allowed him to enter the initial stage.

In an instant, the aura of Qian Gu Zhang Ting rose sharply, and all directions were enhanced. His eyes were like flames, and he raised the Panlong Staff to attack Jiang Xiu. Each strike brought with it the phantom of a giant dragon.

"Rumble!"

A loud collision rang out, and with the support of Zhan Tian's will, even Jiang Xiu became serious. The previously declining Qian Gu Zhang Ting was briefly evenly matched.

Seeing this, Na'er pursed her red lips and stared intently at the scene.

As one of the top families on the continent, the Qian Gu family must be quite powerful.

"Jiang Xiu, admitting defeat now will allow you to leave with dignity. Don't force me to use my last two soul skills," Qian Gu Zhang Ting said in a low voice, looking at Jiang Xiu.

Jiang Xiu, with his feet planted firmly on the ground and surrounded by shadows, couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this.

"Did you think you were the only one who didn't use your soul skill? But you're lucky, you're the first person to experience my fourth soul skill."

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Zhangting frowned, and then he saw Jiang Xiu's fourth soul ring radiate light.

At that very moment, the Shadow King standing beside Jiang Xiu instantly merged into Jiang Xiu's body.

"Dark God Demon Transformation!"

The chilling whispers echoed, like a scene from a dark, infernal hell.

In an instant, Jiang Xiu's eyes emitted a captivating red light, and dark demonic patterns suddenly appeared on the surface of his skin. His muscles bulged violently, and a huge, eerie black tiger phantom flashed behind him, with illusory black and red wings appearing.

The aura emanating from his entire body doubled.

Intense black, gray, and blue light emanated from Jiang Xiu's body, exuding endless malevolence.

In an instant, a chilling, evil, dark, and bloody atmosphere swept across the entire battlefield!
