Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Dragon Abyss Sword, has become its scabbard.

Chapter 242 Strength

Ding Quan handed the Asura Demon Sword to Ling. Although he had the Asura Demon Sword, a divine weapon, Ding Quan still couldn't figure out how to transform his Dragon Abyss Sword into a true divine weapon.

However, it is certain that turning a martial soul into a divine weapon does not require a soul master to cultivate into a god.

This Asura Demon Sword should have been formed by Tang Chen himself after completing the Seven Trials of Asura. It does not belong to the Asura God's Asura Demon Sword. This Asura Demon Sword is only at the level of a divine artifact, while the one in the Asura God's hand is a super divine artifact.

Furthermore, in the original novel, Tang San upgraded the Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone he obtained to the level of a divine artifact during his Title Douluo stage, which shows that divine artifacts are not exclusive to gods.

Ding Quan examined his own body and found that his physical strength had reached a level no weaker than that of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a divine body.

"how?"

"We only have the Asura Demon Sword, and we don't have any leads yet."

The Asura Demon Sword disappeared from Ling's hand. It seems that even though his cultivation is higher than Ling's and he also possesses the Killing God Domain, the Asura God still chooses Ling? Ding Quan turned to look at the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand. So be it. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand is a quasi-divine artifact. When the Dragon Abyss Sword becomes a divine artifact, he can completely create his own godhood.

Tens of thousands of years later, the strongest person on the continent who refined his martial spirit into a divine weapon created half a godhood.

Moreover, the sea god from ten thousand years ago also created his own divine position, giving him more time at this point.

"Next, we'll go to Poseidon Island. Perhaps we can find the answer there." Ling took out the Vast Ocean Universe Cover, the core of the Poseidon's artifact. It shouldn't be a problem for the group to see the Poseidon Trident.

"That makes sense." Ding Quan stopped dwelling on it, stood up and looked at Wei'er, who was absorbing the soul ring, and Zhu Zhuqing, who was trying to connect with all her soul bones.

A day earlier, Zhu Zhuqing had completed the absorption of her ninth soul ring. As expected, having absorbed a 400,000-year-old torso soul bone and a 400,000-year lifespan, Zhu Zhuqing's soul power had reached level 96, the same level as Ling He and Shui Bing'er, who had absorbed 500,000-year lifespans.

Zhu Zhuqing has no ultimate attribute, so soul power is too much of a boost to her.

The difference between 500,000 years and 400,000 years may seem like only 100,000 years, but after all, they are at level 99 and level 98 respectively, and the difference in soul power is enormous.

At this time, Zhu Zhuqing's strength had reached the level of a peak Douluo. In addition, with the increase in spiritual power due to the improvement of soul power, she was able to barely communicate with all the soul bones in her body. In particular, the soul bone of her torso came from the deep sea demon whale. The soul of this daughter of the demon whale king was intact in Zhu Zhuqing's spiritual sea.

With this most important soul bone as a bridge, Zhu Zhuqing now exudes various soul bone auras.

At this moment, on a huge ice floe on the sea, eight spirit rings appeared on Wei'er's body: two yellow, two purple, two black, and two red. The outermost spirit ring with five golden patterns was slowly approaching her.

A set of dark gold and purple armor has now appeared on Vera's body, with purple and gold lightning flashing on her body. A pair of huge purple and gold wings have appeared on her back, and orderly whirlwinds are swirling around her, enveloping her in the power of wind and thunder.

"Wei'er's physical strength has always been above mine, so there shouldn't be any problems with her second soul core." Ling looked at Wei'er's movements and wasn't too worried.

"The torso and soul bone of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, and the Evil God Hook connected to it, have greatly enhanced Wei'er. After Wei'er advances to the Title Douluo level, her strength will definitely surpass mine." Shui Bing'er felt the aura emanating from Wei'er. Although her soul power had reached level 96, Wei'er's strength had always been above hers before, especially in the Soul King to Soul Douluo stage. The two often fought, and she was no match for Wei'er at all.

Compared to Shui Bing'er, Wei'er possesses three additional external soul bones of comparable quality to her strongest torso soul bone, making Wei'er's physical attributes far superior to Shui Bing'er's.

In addition, all of Wei'er's previous soul skills were amplification skills. At her current level, these skills have reached a terrifying level of enhancement to her strength. Although the amplification that a soul master can withstand is limited, with Wei'er's current physical strength, that limit becomes quite high.

A surge of spiritual energy emanated from Wei'er. Ding Quan and the others exchanged glances and breathed a sigh of relief; Wei'er's second soul core had been successfully constructed.

Like Ling and Shui Bing'er, Wei'er also chose to build a spiritual soul core as her second soul core. The human body has three places to place soul cores. With their abilities, they were able to build a second soul core at the Title Douluo level. Naturally, they could consider building a third soul core at level ninety-eight to advance to the Peerless Realm.

Placing the soul core in the lower dantian carries the lowest risk, making it the easiest and least dangerous place to put the last soul core.

A powerful surge of soul energy emanated from Vera's body—level ninety-six!

After absorbing the 500,000-year soul ring and soul bone sacrificed by the Demon Emperor, Wei'er's soul power level increased to level 96. The outermost soul ring with five golden patterns suddenly landed on Wei'er's body, and a terrifying soul power pressure emanated out, stirring up a storm in the Demon Whale Sea.

Above the originally purple-gold lightning, there was a faint blue tinge, and at the same time, a blue-purple lightning ball appeared in Vera's rising hand.

Vera stood up, looked at the blue-purple water mine ball in her hand, smiled, and then threw it into the sky.

Boom!

A deafening roar erupted as terrifying lightning tore apart the storm surrounding Vera.

"This is the Deep Sea Demon Whale's water mine ball, and Wei'er can actually control it directly." Zhu Zhuqing had already arrived next to the group, her tone somewhat surprised. She had also obtained the Deep Sea Demon Whale's soul ring, but she couldn't use this move at all.

"Zhu Qing, your martial soul doesn't have the lightning attribute, so of course you can't do it." Wei'er's figure flashed and appeared in front of Zhu Zhu Qing. "But your domain has the devouring ability of the Demon Whale, which I don't possess."

Zhu Zhuqing's martial soul is the Netherworld Cat. The attributes of the Deep Sea Demon Whale's soul ring are not very suitable for Zhu Zhuqing, but fortunately, the age of the soul ring is high enough to make up for the shortcomings.

Moreover, the deep-sea demon whale's devouring ability is quite compatible with Zhu Zhuqing's current dark attribute. After absorbing the 400,000-year-old deep-sea demon whale's soul ring, Zhu Zhuqing's domain gained the ability to devour soul power.

"Now that the absorption is complete, let's set off." Ding Quan didn't ask about Wei'er's soul ring and soul bone skills. At her current level, they were basically all skills that comprehensively improved Wei'er's own attributes and attack power.

"What about their bodies?"

"Let them make their final contribution to this sea area." At this moment, the whale pearl inside the Deep Sea Demon Whale's body had been collected by the group, and the soul power inside the Deep Sea Demon Whale's body had been largely absorbed by Vera, so it was no longer of much value.

"Alright." Vera nodded, and then a storm appeared in her hand, carrying the three behemoths towards the depths of the Demon Whale Sea.

"I'm gone."

In the Demon Whale Sea, there are not only the three kings of the deep sea demon whales. After the group left, several smaller deep sea demon whales surfaced.

Wuhun City, the Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong felt the speed at which the power within her body was increasing suddenly accelerate.

It seems that waging war is indeed a shortcut for me to quickly accumulate the resources to unlock the divine succession, but I haven't launched any large-scale wars recently.

Although it felt a bit strange, it wasn't a bad thing after all. I noticed that the soul power in my body was becoming more and more condensed, and the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores played a huge role.

Bibi Dong's lips curled slightly, but she quickly returned to normal, her eyes fixed on the direction of the offering hall.

Is Golden Crocodile Douluo back?

He came back so quickly. Wasn't he supposed to be helping Ding Quan, who, like himself, was going to inherit a godhood, hunt for the ninth spirit ring?

Bibi Dong could not keep the fact that Golden Crocodile Douluo had left the Hall of Worship a secret; she had already found out the purpose of his departure.

The fact that obtaining the ninth spirit ring required the intervention of a level 99 expert surprised Bibi Dong. However, Bibi Dong knew that the spirit beast the other party wanted to hunt was absolutely terrifying. After all, according to the news brought back by her disciple Hu Liena, Ling and Shui Bing'er had already advanced to the title of Douluo, and their strength was extremely formidable. This led the two titled Douluo, Ju and Gui, to believe that the two were even stronger than when they had hunted the two beast kings of the Star Dou Forest.

That person already possessed the aura of a god, an angel god, huh? What a repulsive aura.

A sinister aura suddenly emanated from Bibi Dong.

In a corner of the Papal Palace, Hu Liena opened her clear eyes and looked towards the location of the Papal Palace. Her teacher's aura was growing stronger and stronger, but this aura seemed too evil, which was probably not a good thing.

Sensing the equally immense soul power within her body, Hu Liena took out a booklet from her storage soul tool.

Although my physical strength is currently somewhat strained, my mental power is already sufficient to attempt the Yin-Yang complementary second soul core. Once it is fully formed, my soul power and cultivation speed will definitely increase significantly.

Touching the gold and silver patterns between her brows, Hu Liena felt a golden and silver object radiating light within her spiritual sea, subtly improving her body.

Once you reach level 99, you can directly unlock the divine inheritance without any risk.

Thinking of what happened in the Valley of Love and Destiny, Hu Liena sighed slightly, then her eyes hardened.

Then a powerful spiritual force emanated from Hu Liena's training ground.

In the Hall of Offerings, a pair of golden eyes opened. Besides Xiaoxue, someone else was constructing a second soul core.

As expected of Bibi Dong's disciple, her talent is indeed inferior to that of her granddaughter Qian Renxue. However, Qian Renxue had wasted too much time and talent in the past.

Sensing an aura of elemental power, Qian Daoliu's expression relaxed considerably.

"Big brother, Xiaoxue is condensing her second soul core!" The figure of Golden Crocodile Douluo suddenly appeared in the Hall of Worship. He saw that the several worshippers were very quiet. Under the statue of the angel, nine soul rings, two yellow, two purple, three black, and two red, appeared. On Qian Renxue's body, powerful spiritual energy was being compressed wildly.

"Second brother, you're back. Xue'er has just completed the sixth test and her soul power has reached level ninety-seven, enough to build a second soul core," Qian Daoliu said softly, his eyes full of relief.

With his level 97 strength, the ability to construct a second soul core is definitely above his own. Even at level 99, he did not choose to construct a Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core. He was well aware of the power of the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core, but he knew that he could not complete it.

Once completed, one can proceed directly to the seventh and eighth trials. With the power of the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores, drawing the Angelic Holy Sword will not be a problem.

"A second soul core?" Golden Crocodile Douluo nodded, showing neither excitement nor surprise.

"Second Brother, now that you've returned, doesn't that mean...?" The Third Elder, Azure Phoenix Douluo, looked at Golden Crocodile, who, despite bearing some marks, appeared unharmed. Everyone in the Hall of Elders knew Golden Crocodile Douluo's purpose for this trip.

"Hmm, that kid has already absorbed his ninth spirit ring."

"Is it the soul beast from the plan?"

"That's right, that soul beast was even older than I thought, just one step away from a million years, and in the end, it took that step!"

"Hmm?!" Upon hearing this, the retainers turned their heads one after another, and a look of surprise flashed in Qian Daoliu's eyes as well.

"That soul beast broke through to a million years in the end, and that kid already has a million-year divine ring!" Golden Crocodile Douluo said in a somber tone. A million-year soul ring is something that soul masters simply cannot obtain. Only those who have reached level 100 and become gods can possess a soul ring. According to the records of the Spirit Hall, the Angel God possessed a golden divine ring after becoming a god.

"Millions of years! Divine halo!"

"What about his soul power?"

"If I'm not mistaken, his current level is level 98. However, I'm certain that if he were to attack me, I would probably be defeated in a few moves. Even you, Big Brother, would be no match for him. His spirit ring configuration is ridiculously high right now." That kid's spirit seems to have become a physical entity, and even others can use it. It can no longer be called a spirit. A spirit can only be used by the person who created it.

Moreover, all of them are red spirit rings, and each red spirit ring has gold patterns on it. Any spirit master who sees such a spirit ring configuration will feel despair.

Golden Crocodile Douluo did not leave immediately. Instead, he waited until Ding Quan had absorbed the ninth spirit ring and made sure nothing was missing before leaving. He wanted to bring back information about Ding Quan's acquisition of the ninth spirit ring to the Spirit Hall.

"Level 98, she does have that ability, but it's just a divine ring." Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue, who was currently constructing her second soul core. If Qian Renxue had two soul cores, he might not be her match, so this was not surprising.

The existence of a divine ring means that the opponent possesses divine skills!

Divine skills are incomparable to ordinary skills.

"He will go to Seagod Island afterward. I heard that the Seagod now has a successor." Golden Crocodile Douluo knows about the encounters of Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen on Seagod Island decades ago. There, there is Seagod Douluo Poseidon, a high priest who, like Qian Daoliu, was favored by the gods and cultivated to the level of ninety-nine.

"Really? I never thought you'd end up like me." Qian Daoliu sighed. Once a divine position has a successor, the high priest is the key to unlocking the divine position's inheritance.
