In the dim light, Nan Qiuqiu's pretty face, feigning seriousness, peeked out from among them, drawing out her words:
"Sister Gu Yi~ Sister Meng Di~ What are you doing hiding here~"
-----------------
When Kong Tianxu returned to the No. 1 Sky Villa Suite belonging to the Holy Spirit Cult, the sky had already completely darkened, and the day's competition outside and the half-day's exchange inside the lobby bar had come to an end.
Yes, it was in the lobby bar. He and Zhang Lexuan had never left, but neither Ye Guyi, Yu Mengdi, nor Nan Qiuqiu and Tang Ya, who joined them later, noticed anything unusual.
This is not a simulated soul skill, but in fact it is not far off. Through the powerful mental strength of the tangible realm and the innate spatial control, Kong Tianxu can directly distort the surrounding space and the mental perception of external creatures to achieve a simulation-like effect.
Zhang Lexuan was initially somewhat resistant, but after realizing that no matter how much she called out, the people outside didn't notice, she gradually relaxed. The women's tea party outside even brought the two of them a very novel experience.
After losing herself in the moment several times, Zhang Lexuan felt a little lightheaded as Kong Tianxu escorted her away, as if she had forgotten something.
Recalling Zhang Lexuan's serene face as she fell into a deep sleep before even the Shrek Academy members could wait for her return, Kong Tianxu couldn't help but smile and pushed open his own door.
wrong.
He stopped, as if sensing something, then casually stepped into the room and flicked his finger.
With a faint, piercing whistle like a spiraling sword, the almost imperceptible pale green aura in the room shattered.
"Senior, please feel free to offer any guidance. Within this Mingdu City, there is no occasion where I, Kong Tianxu, need to speak cautiously."
"Eighteen years old, level 80, condensed soul core ahead of schedule... You certainly have the right to say that."
A deep, resonant voice suddenly rang out. Inside the room, the light and shadow distorted, and two figures appeared.
Tall, balding, with long, dark green hair.
It is precisely because the poison cannot kill.
Behind him, a burly young man with long brown hair stood quietly, his eyes looking at Kong Tianxu without the slightest fear, only a fierce fighting spirit that seemed to burst forth from his body.
“Aotian,” Du Busi gestured for Long Aotian to step forward.
"Here?" Long Aotian exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, right here." Poison Undying nodded slightly.
Upon hearing this, Long Aotian's eyes lit up, his fighting spirit instantly soared to its peak, his arms stretched out, a sense of harmony flowed through him, and he was poised to unleash his power in perfect harmony with nature.
He had been looking forward to this battle for a long time. The time had come. This battle would decide who would be the future young sect leader of the Body Sect!
Kong Tianxu took half a step forward, his body slightly turned to face Long Aotian.
"Get ready," Du Bu Si gently placed a broad, calloused hand on Long Aotian's shoulder.
Long Aotian took a deep breath, suppressing his surging blood and fighting spirit, and replied in a deep voice:
"Disciple, you are ready!"
Then, he heard Poison Undying's next command, delivered with unwavering certainty:
"Alright then—"
"Kowtowing to Kong Tianxu, the current sect leader of the Body Sect."
Chapter 279 The Pathetic Thick Barrier
"Master?!" Long Aotian turned around in horror to look at Du Busi, his eyes filled with disbelief.
Huh? What is that?
Not to mention Long Aotian, who turned around in astonishment, even Kong Tianxu was stunned by the amazing words of "poison cannot kill". He was ready to call for help. What was the meaning of this performance?
But his mind raced, and in an instant he figured out the complex meaning behind Poison Never Dies's words. He didn't say anything, but just looked at Poison Never Dies with a hint of surprise.
Du Bu Si's expression was calm and composed. Seeing Long Ao Tian standing still, he placed his broad hand on Long Ao Tian's shoulder again and pressed it down slightly.
"Aotian, be good."
“Master…” Long Aotian’s peak aura, which had been brewing like a live volcano, fluctuated violently.
He was not convinced!
Back then, Long Aotian held an incredibly prestigious position within the Body Sect. As the last disciple of Du Busi, and the one with the highest pure cultivation talent in the sect's ten thousand-year history, his status even surpassed that of some sect elders.
Who in the sect doesn't cherish him? Which of his fellow disciples doesn't respectfully address him as Young Sect Master?
Back then, Yu Tao and Lang Ya, two third-generation disciples of the Body Sect with higher seniority, were even willing to fight for him to seize the embryo of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Although they didn't succeed in the end, it was enough to show how much Long Aotian was favored by the Body Sect.
Even though Long Aotian may find it difficult to inherit the most crucial seed of inheritance from the Body Sect due to the limitations of his martial soul, with his talent, the hope of reaching level 99 Limit Douluo may be slim in this lifetime, but he still has a good chance of reaching level 98.
At least, he was confident that maintaining the prestigious reputation of the Body Sect in the future would be no problem. Du Busi treated him like his own son, pouring countless efforts and expectations into him.
However, all of this seems to have quietly changed since that guy named Kong Tianxu suddenly appeared.
The focus of everyone's discussion was no longer when Long Aotian would break through to the seventh-ring Soul Saint, or when he would be able to awaken his Silver-level body a second time and elevate it to the legendary Gold level, truly inheriting the name of his original body.
Rather, it's about how heaven-defying Kong Tianxu's twin martial souls are, how his innate gold-level second awakening has reached the titled Douluo realm, and what kind of earth-shattering transformation will occur.
Even his master, whom he regarded as his father, Du Busi, seemed to be neglecting him.
The months-long melancholy and sighs of his master when he first heard the news of Kong Tianxu's passing still pierce his heart.
He, Long Aotian, the young sect master of the Body Sect, became someone who lived in the shadow of others.
As a pure and utter martial arts fanatic, Long Aotian didn't really care much about the attention and noise from the outside world, nor was he a narrow-minded and jealous person.
However, he would never submit to a peer who was considered stronger and better than him by almost everyone!
Therefore, he cultivated even more diligently and frantically!
Long Aotian was someone who had almost no childhood, and in the last five years, he has turned himself into a cultivation machine with no free time.
Finally, he did it. Before the age of twenty, he became a seven-ring Soul Saint, achieving oneness with heaven and man, and there were no more bottlenecks before level ninety-six.
Judging purely from cultivation talent, if it weren't for Kong Tianxu, Long Aotian would definitely be considered the number one genius in the history of Soul Masters, as the first Soul Master in the history of Douluo Continent to truly cultivate to the seventh-ring Soul Saint realm before the age of twenty.
Even though Kong Tianxu had also reached the Soul Saint realm, and even though he possessed seven 100,000-year soul rings that surpassed the limits of human imagination, Long Aotian was fearless.
Only through battle, battle! Only by giving it your all in actual combat can you determine who is the true strongest among the younger generation of those with a powerful Martial Soul!
But today, at the moment when his fighting spirit was burning at its peak, his master stopped him.
Even as he uttered his second plea, an overwhelming force suddenly surged from Poison Undying's hand, forcing him down to his knees.
"Crack!"
The luxurious and expensive soul-guided alloy floor beneath his feet was cracked by his resisting toes.
Long Aotian knelt on both knees, his body trembling slightly from the immense force, but his head remained stubbornly and proudly raised like a flag that would never bow down, with the veins on his neck clearly visible.
“Aotian, if you don’t show respect to the new generation of the Body Sect Master, I will no longer acknowledge you as my disciple.”
Poison Undying's voice also carried a hint of sternness.
Long Aotian was stunned, a look of loss and desolation appearing on his face; his lips moved, but he did not utter a sound.
His attitude finally became respectful, his head lowered, and he clearly called out:
"metropolitan!……"
Does the Body Sect always do things in such a simple and crude way? Doing things this way is bound to create a pathetic thick barrier.
Kong Tianxu was speechless.
"Tianxu." Du Busi seemed to have accomplished something of paramount importance, and his expression relaxed slightly.
"From this day forward, the Body Sect officially submits to the Sun and Moon Sect. You will serve as the sect leader and take charge of the entire sect. There are a few old fellows in the sect whom I still need to persuade. But all the younger generation disciples, led by Ao Tian, will bring the Body Sect's legacy and torch to Mingdu to join you."
Kong Tianxu stroked his smooth chin, remaining silent.
"Don't look at me like that. Whether it's your unparalleled talent in the Body Martial Soul or the inevitable trend of the future world, this is the only correct choice I can make at this moment. I have no other requirements for you, I only hope that in the future, you can make the Body Sect's legacy continue better in a wider world."
Poison Immortal patted the back of Long Aotian's head, who was still looking up in a daze. When Long Aotian looked up blankly, Poison Immortal waved his hand and set up a soul power barrier to isolate the sounds and images inside and outside. Then he turned to Kong Tianxu and sighed softly:
"In addition, I have a personal reason. Aotian is a very good child. His talent and temperament are both excellent. It's just that he has only known how to cultivate since he was a child, and he is too straightforward. So I brought him to meet you first. I hope that you can take care of him in the future."
Having said that, the sect leader of the Body Sect, who had been renowned throughout the continent for nearly two hundred years, actually took half a step back and bowed deeply to Kong Tianxu with utmost solemnity:
"From now on, the fate of the world will be entrusted to you."
"But that doesn't include you, Senior Main Body, right?" This sentence carried a strong sense of entrusting someone's future to him, causing Kong Tianxu to frown. "Why bother with that? The Main Body Martial Soul emphasizes using the body as a foundation, proving the Dao through strength, and transcending worldly affairs. Why be bound by narrow-minded nationalistic views..."
Poison Undying calmly raised his hand.
"That's why I'm not as good as you."
Kong Tianxu remained silent. He knew that once a top-tier expert like Du Busi had made up his mind, his resolve would not be swayed by a few words from others.
He wisely stopped trying to persuade him, and after a moment's thought, he said:
"In that case, Senior, why don't you give me the choice? Since we're going to part ways eventually, we should at least make it as glorious and meaningful as possible."
Upon hearing this, Du Busi's face revealed a somewhat magnanimous smile:
"None of that matters. Contact me using this when the time comes."
He casually tossed out a translucent green crystal.
Then, this peerless expert, who had just solemnly entrusted his son to someone, seemed to suddenly remember something, and rubbed his hands together like a child, his face revealing undisguised curiosity and longing:
"So now, can I see your martial spirit?"
Looking at the seemingly childlike Poison Immortal in front of him, Kong Tianxu couldn't help but smile.
"of course can."
Starlight swirled, and the Starry Wings unfurled behind Kong Tianxu.
The light in the room seemed to dim slightly for a moment. Without warning, specks of starlight appeared in the void behind Kong Tianxu, and a pair of magnificent and mysterious broad wings slowly unfolded.
A faint purple-gold aura emanated from his body, revealing his true form's martial soul after its third awakening.
"Awakening three times, indeed it is the third awakening of the original martial soul."
Poison Immortal gazed in a daze at the mysterious and noble purple-gold light, his hands trembling as they drifted across the surface of the Starry Holy Wings, like the most devout believer meeting his god.
Yes, the Starry Wings, this 100,000-year-old external soul bone originating from a pure-blooded unicorn, has long surpassed the category of ordinary soul bones after Kong Tianxu's year-long deep meditation and continuous assimilation and tempering by the Myriad Origins Domain.
It is not only a soul bone, but also a concrete manifestation of his original martial soul's complete fusion with himself after its third awakening.
It can be said that the Starry Sacred Wings facilitated the third awakening of his original martial soul, or that the third awakening of his original martial soul truly made the Starry Sacred Wings a part of him.
