Douluo Continent: Just became a demigod, and was exposed by the heavens.

Chapter 69 A Cultured Man, Seven Kills Illuminate the Nine Heavens in an Instant, Cold Light Like Lightning Cuts Through All Things (Please Read Further)

Lacking the overwhelming grandeur of Poseidon, Chenxin's concentration is the condensation of the purest and most refined sword intent.

The moment the soul core was formed, an extremely sharp sword intent erupted from his body!
That sword intent seemed to tear the entire sky apart!

A new understanding of swordsmanship rushed into his mind.

As his understanding of swordsmanship deepened, his soul power soared like a rocket, instantly reaching the peak of level ninety-eight!
He only needs one more opportunity to step into that legendary realm of unparalleled power!

More importantly, he also mastered a new soul skill!

This is the ultimate manifestation of his swordsmanship, a product of the perfect fusion of the Soul Core and the Seven Kill Domain!
Chen Xin gripped the Seven Kill Sword, its blade pointing straight to the heavens.

He let out a low shout, his voice carrying a clear, penetrating sword intent.

"Seven Kill Sword Technique - Heaven-Slaying Style: In an instant, seven kills illuminate the nine heavens, and cold light cuts through all things like lightning."

This self-created soul skill is the explosion of his soul power, soul core and sword dao insights compressed to the extreme!

It is no longer a simple sword aura attack, but an extreme cutting of the rules!

Effect: Using the Seven Kill Sword Soul Core as a catalyst, a beam of sword intent condensed to its extreme erupts. This light can ignore all defensive measures below the god level, directly attacking the target's core and causing cutting damage.

Feeling the surging power within him, Chen Xin grinned, revealing a smile more confident than ever before.

He knew that he was perhaps very close to that realm of "divine swordsmanship"!
Lin Yuan shook his head. He really was a cultured man. His new self-created soul skill was another poem.

"Wow, Grandpa Sword, you're amazing! You've actually mastered a new soul skill!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed in surprise.

Chen Xin sheathed the Seven Kill Sword and chuckled, "I was also a little surprised. The sword insights that the Heavenly Canopy gave me have been of great help to me."

As she spoke, Chen Xin secretly glanced at Lin Yuan, but found that his expression did not change.

Then one would know that his self-created soul skill was probably nothing special in his eyes.

"sharp."

But at that moment, Lin Yuan said something.

This surprised Chen Xin somewhat.

“If the opportunity arises, I can suppress my cultivation level and we can have an exchange about sword intent.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin was excited.

He's now just a tiny bit away from becoming a peerless Douluo.

If he could gain even a little inspiration from his conversation with Lin Yuan, it would be of immense help to him!
Chen Xin knew that Lin Yuan was helping him indirectly.

After all, when it comes to communication, what use is his sword intent to Lin Yuan?

"Thank you," Chen Xin said solemnly.

Ning Rongrong looked between the two of them, her eyes crinkling with a smile.

……

Wuhun Temple.

In front of the Papal Gate.

Jin'e said, "Brother, this seems a bit bad. Chen Xin is on the list again. He already has the strength to fight beyond his level, and now that he's at level ninety-eight, I wonder how strong he is?"

Qian Daoliu shook his head: "It's only level 98, it's fine."

"Now that the location of Canglan Academy has been found, it's time to go and investigate it."

Jin'e knew that Qian Daoliu still didn't take Chen Xin seriously.

After all, Chen Xin's grandfather was also level 98 back then, and when he challenged him, he lost.

He died from his severe injuries.

But the situation is clearly different now; Chen Xin has condensed a soul core!
Just then, Yue Guan's soul power had almost fully recovered.

“By the way, Grandpa, since Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo have already condensed their soul cores, why don’t you take this opportunity to condense one yourself?” Qian Renxue suddenly said.

Although condensing a soul core is dangerous, Qian Daoliu can mobilize some angelic power, so the danger of condensing a soul core is naturally not that great.

Moreover, there are so many offerings and guardians around it.

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu glanced at Bibi Dong at the entrance of the main hall, then nodded: "Alright."

Yue Guan stood up, and in his hand, a petal and a drop of nectar separated from the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.

"Great Offering, these are two of my food-related soul skills. You might find them useful when you're condensing your soul core."

Qian Daoliu nodded, accepting Yue Guan's kindness.

The petals and nectar then went directly into Qian Daoliu's mouth, where he held them. In a critical moment, he could simply swallow them.

Although Qian Daoliu believed that Bibi Dong would not attack him under these circumstances, it was still good to have a guarantee.

Bibi Dong's expression was very unpleasant at Yue Guan's blatant behavior.

Although she wants Qian Daoliu to die, she will also consider the overall situation, okay!
If she dares to fight against Qian Daoliu now, she'll probably be ganged up on and beaten up by these worshippers.

Even though she now possesses the strength of a quasi-god, it would still take her some effort to kill these people.

Moreover, if all these people die, the Spirit Hall will lose its high-level combat power, and then how will it fight against external forces?

She's crazy, but not stupid!

Just as Qian Daoliu was preparing to use the power of the sun in the sky to condense his soul core.

The small golden words before their eyes flashed again.

[Soul Master Domain Ranking, 10th Place: Azure Phosphorus Domain]

[Owner: Dugu Bo (Canglan Academy)]

[Effect: The area is filled with the deadly venom of the Azure Serpent King, continuously corroding and paralyzing enemies, while amplifying all attributes.]

[Evaluation: This is the innate domain awakened after the martial soul's flaws were resolved. The Jade Phosphorous Serpent King's innate poison is powerful, but it's also prone to accidentally injuring friendly forces. Advantages: The poison has extremely strong predictability; once deployed, it's a god-tier skill for clearing the field and attrition warfare. Disadvantages: The domain itself lacks instantaneous burst damage; it takes a considerable amount of time to inflict a fatal wound on a stronger soul master.]

[Reward: Soul Power increased by one level, Ninth Soul Ring upgraded to 100,000 years, 60,000-year torso bone: Azure Phosphorous Sky-Piercing Bone]

……

Canglan Academy.

As the golden light descended, Dugu Bo's cultivation level broke through from level 95 to level 96!

And his ninth spirit ring changed from black to red!

Subsequently, a piece of torso bone radiating a green-gold light merged directly into Dugu Bo's body under his will.

This is a 60,000-year-old Azure Phosphorus Sky-Piercing Bone.

Soul Bone Skill - Serpent King's Breath: Instantly draws 30% of the soul power from the body and condenses it into a "primordial poison breath" that ignores physical and energy defenses.

This poison will directly erode the target's soul and life essence, causing a continuous and irreversible "soul withering" effect.

After Dugu Bo finished improving his strength, he looked refreshed and invigorated.

He felt the domineering and sinister power within his torso and couldn't help but chuckle. This skill was simply a divine technique tailor-made for him to use in cunning and deceitful acts!

It's a pity that using it once consumes 30% of your soul power, which is quite a significant amount.

However, considering the effects of this Soul Bone skill, it's still worth it.

After Dugu Bo's strength improved, Chen Xin was somewhat puzzled: "Huh, old poisoner, why didn't the Heavenly Curtain give you a soul core reward? This is not normal."

Dugu Bo chuckled: "Is it possible that I have already completely condensed my soul core with the help of that little monster?"

Chen Xin: ? ? ?
Seeing Chen Xin's puzzled expression, Dugu Bo patiently explained, "You should have seen Tianmu's evaluation, right? Our clan's martial soul has a flaw."

"Although the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Serpent is powerful, it can also backfire on the Soul Master himself, so they generally don't live long."

"As for me, I was lucky and by chance broke through to the title level, but that's where I stopped."

"If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have chosen to cultivate in the direction of poison control. It would have been the right choice to start by cultivating as a power-attack type Soul Master."

"After all, no matter how strong the snake venom is, it can only work better when the target has a wound."

"If it weren't for that little monster, I probably wouldn't have lived for many more years. And when I broke through to the Soul Saint realm, I actually had something similar to a Soul Core inside my body, an Inner Core!"

"Inner core?" Chen Xin asked in confusion.

Lin Yuan explained from the side, "The so-called inner core is not common on the continent. Some ancient books record that the inner core appeared in the body of ancient mythical beasts and was the core of the beast's strength."

"And this is the first time I've seen it appear on a human body. It can be understood as the prototype of a soul core."

Chen Xin's eyes were strange: "You old poisoner, calling you a monster is really not wrong..."

Dugu Bo chuckled: "Perhaps this is a characteristic of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul? Later I learned that the reason I was poisoned by the venom was because the energy of the inner core in my body was too dissipated. That dissipated energy was all the original toxin of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent King!"

"With the help of the little monster, the backlash of my martial soul was completely resolved, and the so-called inner core was condensed into a poison soul core."

Lin Yuan said, "The old monster's inner core can actually be considered the prototype of his soul core. It was formed by chance. Yan Yan's martial soul does not have this problem."

Dugu Yan complained, "I don't know whether to say Grandpa, you're a genius, or..."
