Douluo Continent: Targeted Thoughts, Winning Over Bibi Dong at the Start

Chapter 43 Fierce Battle Against the Soul Saint

"Shadow Martial Soul?" This was the first time Qin Heng had ever seen this type of Martial Soul.

He remembered that in the original story, the Fire Dance Martial Soul of the Crimson Fire Academy was a shadow, but a Fire Shadow. The shadow of the guy in front of him was filled with resentment and should be called a Demon Shadow.

Speaking of which, shadow martial souls should also be considered a type of main body martial soul, but this is Battle 1. If it were Battle 2, the Soul Saint of the main body martial soul would be truly invincible among those of the same level.

Qin Heng's thoughts raced as he watched the Third Elder's martial spirit, while the seven spirit rings beneath the Third Elder's feet slowly rose from beneath his shadow.

Two yellow, two purple, and three black auras erupted, causing the surrounding air to freeze.

The Third Elder stared at Qin Heng, his voice low and hoarse, yet carrying a rare solemnity: "Boy, my name is Demon Shadow, and my martial soul is also named Demon Shadow. State your name! A genius like you dying at my hands, I'll remember it well."

As he spoke, the dark shadow began to slowly writhe, like a venomous snake lurking in the darkness, ready to deliver a fatal blow at any moment.

Qin Heng finally stopped twenty meters away from the other party. He did not rush to make a move, but responded in a voice so cold that it was devoid of any warmth: "Remember my name? No need, because today, only you beasts will die here."

When he finished speaking, Qin Heng's voice had become chillingly cold, and his intense killing intent almost materialized, surging wildly in the air.

Instead of getting angry, the Demon Shadow let out a low laugh, which was tinged with cruelty and excitement: "Interesting. The Soul Sect dares to say such things to the Soul Saint. You must have some tricks up your sleeve. But what I like to crush the bones of self-righteous geniuses like you the most is to crush them. I hope your bones are harder than your mouth."

As soon as he finished speaking, the black demonic shadow behind him suddenly swelled up, instantly transforming into a ferocious phantom several meters tall. All seven soul rings shone brightly at the same time, and powerful soul energy fluctuations swept towards "Qin Heng" like a storm.

Facing a true Soul Saint, Qin Heng dared not be the slightest bit arrogant.

Despite possessing the Asura Armor and spiritual power far exceeding that of others of the same level, the total difference in soul power between a Soul Saint and a Soul Master is still enormous. Any underestimation of his opponent could result in his clone being instantly defeated.

A light flashed beneath his feet, and four spirit rings—two purple and two black—appeared neatly.

This was the first time Qin Heng revealed his soul ring configuration, which exceeded the limit of his lifespan, to the world.

The shadowy figure opposite him shrank his pupils when he saw Qin Heng's four spirit rings.

"The first ring lasts a thousand years, the third ten thousand! How is this possible! Is it an illusion? No, that's not right, these spirit rings are real, the pressure of spirit power can't be faked!"

After confirming that "Qin Heng's" spirit ring was genuine, a greedy and excited blazing light quickly ignited in the Demon Shadow's eyes.

He stared intently at the black spirit ring beneath Qin Heng's feet, his breathing becoming heavier.

If he could force the kid to reveal the method for absorbing spirit rings beyond the limit, or even uncover the secrets hidden within him, he would have made a great contribution. After receiving the reward, he might even be able to take another step forward and break through to the Soul Douluo realm!

Qin Heng keenly caught the almost naked greed in the demonic shadow's eyes, and a strong sense of disgust flashed through his mind. None of these fallen ones were good.

He stopped wasting words, and his first, second, and third spirit rings shone brightly one after another!

A 100% increase in strength, a 100% increase in agility, and a 50% increase in all attributes—the triple boost instantly stacked on him.

A terrifying sense of power filled his entire body, making Qin Heng feel that every muscle and every bone in his body was buzzing.

Immediately afterwards, a golden light shone from between his brows, and his external soul bone, the Illusionary Eye, quietly activated.

In an instant, the world became incredibly clear in Qin Heng's eyes. He could see every subtle movement of the demonic shadow, the trajectory of its soul power flow, and even the slightest fluctuations in the soul power in the air.

The demonic shadow sensed that Qin Heng's aura suddenly surged in a short moment. The originally weak Soul Sect fluctuations made even a Soul Saint like him feel a sense of trepidation and trembling!

"This kid is definitely strange!" Demon Shadow dared not hold back any longer. He roared and activated his Martial Soul True Body.

His pitch-black soul power surged out wildly, and his body was instantly swallowed up by a huge black shadow.

The next moment, a terrifying black shadow, more than ten meters tall, materialized, illusory yet full of oppressive power, like a demon crawling out of the abyss.

Beneath the demon's feet, the third and fourth spirit rings lit up one after another, and his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot!

A strange dark fluctuation flashed by, and the demonic figure appeared directly behind "Qin Heng" in a terrifying manner, almost like teleportation.

The enormous and ferocious black claws, shrouded in a dense aura of darkness and death, swooped down with a piercing shriek as they viciously clawed at Qin Heng's back!

However, Qin Heng had already captured the opponent's movement trajectory through his Illusionary Eyes. He must have just activated his third and fourth soul skills. One of these soul skills should be a speed-enhancing soul skill, but no matter how fast he was, he could not escape the eyes of Qin Heng who had activated his Illusionary Eyes.

Another thing is the aura of darkness and death that emanates from the claws of this demonic figure.

Qin Heng was not afraid at all. His fourth soul ring suddenly shone, and on the Asura Cloak Claw, wind and lightning attribute soul power gathered wildly, with cyan and purple light intertwining and flashing.

He suddenly turned around, his claws lashing out with a violent force of wind and thunder.

"Boom!" The wind and thunder attribute soul power erupted violently upon contact. The purple lightning first paralyzed the demonic shadow's claws, causing its movements to stagnate slightly. Then, the violent wind blades cut wildly like countless sharp blades.

The demonic claws formed from dark soul power were torn apart on the spot, and the huge black claw shadow shattered inch by inch!

The aftershocks of the explosion sent the massive Martial Soul True Body of the Demon Shadow flying backward, tumbling several times in the air before it barely managed to regain its footing.

"Roar!" The demonic shadow let out an angry low roar, and a clear crack appeared on the chest of its Martial Soul True Body, from which wisps of black mist continued to dissipate.

He looked down at his shattered right claw, then looked up and stared intently at the tiny figure in armor below, his eyes finally revealing true solemnity and killing intent.

"You brat, you've successfully angered me." The demonic voice echoed from the huge black demonic figure, reverberating throughout the forest, carrying a chilling killing intent.

Qin Heng shook his right hand, which was slightly numb from the shock. A cold light flashed in his phantom eyes, and his voice was icy and calm: "Anyone can talk tough. Come on, try it!"
