Douluo Continent: The Eternal Order of the Azure Sky.

Inside the palace, as even the most enthusiastic Xiao Hongchen collapsed drunk, the lively victory banquet finally drew to a close, and guests began to leave. Amidst the bustling crowd, however, Kong Tianxu was nowhere to be seen.

He ran away as soon as he started.

Just as he was about to dismiss the palace maids who came to clean up the mess, Xu Guoyi caught a glimpse of Xu Tianran pushing his wheelchair and struggling to pick up the tea set. He sighed, and with the help of the palace maids, drank a bowl of hangover soup before waving his hand.

"Twin martial souls, and even a second awakening of the innate gold-level main body martial soul. This kid has been hiding it well. He was also noticeably less respectful to you, Father, today."

Xu Tianran gently positioned Xu Guoyi by the back of his head and whispered in the ear of the Sun and Moon Emperor.

Instead of offering him hangover soup, he helped Xu Guoyi adjust his posture. After his legs became crippled, he became even more gentle, kind, and frugal than before.

Moreover, he has quite a bit of experience in how to sit more comfortably.

"Tianran, regarding this matter, I still have to say that it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester. Regardless of what actually happened that time, you should treat him a hundred or even a thousand times better than before. His existence is absolutely a blessing for the empire. According to secret reports, the royal families and sects of the three kingdoms on the Douluo Continent are already in an uproar. Tianxu's impact on the Soul Master world is even greater than Shrek Academy's defeat at our hands."

"Besides, things are progressing better between him and Tianzhen than we thought. What family can't resolve their differences?"

Xu Guoyi spoke with deep emotion, his eyes fixed on Xu Tianran, his intention to remind him was all too clear.

"Yes, Father."

Xu Tianran lowered his eyelids, and when he looked up again, there was no trace of coldness in his eyes:

“But since Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao has already openly stood behind Kong Tianxu, our efforts to divide the Holy Spirit Sect are even more urgent. Although Father Emperor has recently reshuffled the middle and high-level members of the various Soul Master Corps, it has ultimately been ineffective. Once the two are truly united, it will not be a good thing for either of them.”

"Hmm." Xu Guoyi nodded. "What do you plan to do?"

"Your subject has already made contact with Zhongli Wu, and he has promised to introduce me to Death God Douluo Ye Xishui at an appropriate time. Your subject believes that the intentions of these evil soul masters are somewhat different from those of Long Xiaoyao."

"Alright, but you must ensure your own safety."

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I understand."

Xu Tianran sat respectfully in his wheelchair, bowing slightly, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

He, the future emperor, was eager to become Ye Xishui's godson and even established the Holy Spirit Sect as the state religion. He didn't believe that the Confucius family and the Holy Spirit Sect could still collude together after all this!

……

If Kong Tianxu knew what Xu Tianran was thinking, he would definitely laugh out loud. But since he rushed back to Yuehua Palace without even giving Xu Guoyi face, he naturally wouldn't care about Xu Tianran's thoughts.

Because he had more important things to do at that moment.

He removed the Heavenly Punishment Ring from his neck and lightly touched the clasp of the necklace, which was the core magic array.

A faint silver halo instantly obscured the iridescent luster of the entire necklace. Then, with a soft "click," the entire necklace seemed to melt, beginning to be swallowed by the silver halo that gradually intensified to the point of being unbearable to look at.

Within the silver light was a silver skull, no bigger than an adult's finger joint, with a brilliant halo flowing around it. The silver halo, as if breathing, seemed to have a life of its own, flickering with the surrounding rainbow light.

When the seven-colored light completely disappeared, the silver skull suddenly became transparent, as clear and translucent as silver crystal.

Exquisite! A silver dragon skull, a product of 100,000 years of divine retribution.

Finally, I'm about to absorb my first soul bone.

Kong Tianxu picked it up with burning eyes, and as he caressed it, a strange sense of blood connection immediately came over him.

Long Xiaoyao stood aside, looking at the obviously high-quality head soul bone with envy. He also had a fully equipped soul bone, which was also 100,000 years old, but even all of them combined might not be as valuable as this one soul bone!

For a genius-level Soul Master, finding a Soul Beast Soul Bone that is identical to their own Martial Soul is an incredibly fortunate thing. The stronger the Martial Soul, the more fortunate it is, as it represents a direct enhancement of the Martial Soul's origin and has the potential to guide the Martial Soul's essence to improve.

For example, the famous Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family can only choose some sub-dragons or earth dragons for their soul rings and soul bones. Otherwise, the chance of the Light Holy Dragon Martial Soul appearing would not be so small.

Comparing yourself to others is truly infuriating.

Long Xiaoyao sighed in frustration, took a step and left the room. With Ye Xishui there, there was no need for him to stay. The pressure emanating from Kong Tianxu and the pure-blooded dragon from that soul bone made him very uncomfortable.

Anyway, for a Limit Douluo like him, coming back is just a matter of a single thought.

He left silently, without affecting Kong Tianxu, who had already closed his eyes and was holding the skull.

A wisp of spiritual energy slowly emanated from Kong Tianxu's body and flowed into the Heavenly Punishment Skull. The silver light on the Heavenly Punishment Skull suddenly intensified, almost instantly enveloping Kong Tianxu's body and radiating a magnificent silver glow.

Enveloped in silver, the first thing Kong Tianxu felt was a cold yet comfortable fluctuation of soul power slowly flowing into his mind.

A cool breath entered directly from between his eyebrows, gradually stimulating his brain. Wherever it passed, his brain seemed to be gradually opened up, and he was in a wonderful state of clarity.

Under the influence of this icy airflow, his tangible yet intangible spiritual power grew at an astonishing rate, and the connection between it and his soul bone became increasingly close, as if it were his own arm.

Before Kong Tianxu could properly sense it, the icy airflow suddenly became stronger, almost instantly engulfing his sea of ​​consciousness.

Kong Tianxu suddenly opened his eyes uncontrollably. The silver soul bone had grown to the size of his head at some point. The moment he opened his eyes, two silver flames suddenly ignited at the eyes of the silver skull.

And in his eyes, two flames, like reflections, also appeared.

A sharp, intense pain shot through his eyes. Kong Tianxu couldn't see, but his pupils had turned completely blue. Then, in a short period of time, they flashed nine times, changing colors to red, yellow, cyan, gold, black, purple, white, and green, finally settling into a dazzling silver.

The skull of divine punishment continued to enlarge, completely enveloping Kong Tianxu's head before slowly retracting. As it approached Kong Tianxu's head, the entire skull had already turned into a phantom and quietly merged into it.

At this moment, Kong Tianxu was submerged in a cold, clear ocean and could no longer feel anything around him. It was as if his body and soul had been separated, and he could no longer even feel the stinging sensation in his eyes.

Upon seeing this, Kong Deming's expression immediately tightened, and he shouted in a deep voice:

"Tianxu, concentrate and don't let your guard down! The Silver Dragon's divine punishment is coming!"

There's no need for Kong Deming to explain; the world in Kong Tianxu's eyes has already changed.

The scene before him was no longer the familiar house in the Moon Palace, but a huge silver dragon coiled in the Sea of ​​Spirit, dragging his consciousness into it as well.

The dragon's body was noble and majestic, and its silver vertical pupils flashed with a hint of mockery, as if it were watching the dying struggle of an ant, just as it had for the past two thousand years.

It was clearly formed from the illusory silver light in the sea of ​​spirit, yet it had form and substance, just like a living thing.

The remnant soul of a silver dragon? So this is what they call divine retribution.

Kong Tianxu smiled and the Holy Spirit Puppet appeared as if it had descended from the heavens, bathed in a holy, platinum-gold light.

No one in the world is more adept at dealing with spirits than him.

Kong Tianxu raised his hand, and the remnant soul of the silver dragon watched his movements with great interest. Then it suddenly discovered that a familiar silver dragon tail had appeared in front of it.

Chapter 135 Perfect Fusion, Snow Empress, Bite

Isn't this my tail?

How can it move by itself!

The silver dragon's mind raced, its vertical pupils suddenly contracting, but the dragon's tail was even faster than its thoughts, lashing out like a silver lightning bolt!

"hold head high--"

Its previously mocking dragon eyes were instantly filled with pain and ferocity. As a pure-blooded silver dragon of 100,000 years, its spiritual power was incredibly strong. Almost no human could completely defeat it. Even with only a remnant soul remaining, it was still far beyond the resistance of ordinary titled Douluo or even Super Douluo.

If it hadn't been discovered just as it survived the tribulation, the Sun Moon Empire would never have been able to kill it. Over the past few thousand years, countless people have tried to absorb its skull, but all have died from the double backlash of spiritual power and soul bone bloodline.

But today, facing a mere human with only a fifth-ring cultivation level, it was actually humiliated like this!

Kong Tianxu stood quietly in the sea of ​​his mind, watching with amusement the enormous silver dragon's body writhing and churning, roaring as if trying to vent its anger.

This is just the beginning.

The Holy Spirit Puppet behind him shone brightly! The six originally holy wings of light suddenly extended and retracted, transforming into six white-gold tentacles that were both sacred and somewhat eerie, trembling slightly as if they were manipulating a puppet.

At this moment, the silver dragon was horrified to discover that it could not control the actions of this spiritual entity!

All the attacks used for venting its anger fell upon its own spiritual power. Claws tore horizontally, dragon teeth gnawed, and amidst the flying silver scales, countless silver blood drops formed from pure spiritual essence fell.

What kind of strange power is this?

Surprisingly, the remnant soul of the silver dragon showed a hint of fear and began to violently attack the invisible soul power that was binding it.

Suddenly, a silver sun appeared in Kong Tianxu's spiritual sea, its chaotic halo stirring up waves and turbulent tides in his vast platinum sea.

The silver dragon's frantic self-harming actions seemed to slow down as if it were locked in a stalemate with something.

Still want to resist? This is my home turf!

Kong Tianxu snorted coldly with his divine sense, and the platinum-gold seawater surged up, completely enveloping the silver dragon's body into a water sphere.

The six tentacles expanded forward to their maximum extent, perfectly encompassing the water sphere that shimmered with alternating platinum and silver, and then slowly closed and compressed inward.

The water sphere shrank drastically, and the silver dragon's body curled up abnormally. The dragon claws, which had been frozen in mid-air, slowly retracted and bent downwards under the immense pressure, until they were completely submerged in the silver scales, getting deeper and deeper.

Silver blood began to drip again.

The high-pitched dragon roar became much lower and more melodious. The silver dragon lowered its eyes and looked at Kong Tianxu with a hint of submission, as if it was begging for a pause in this cruel fusion that felt like being torn to pieces.

Kong Tianxu sighed, seemingly reluctant.

"too slow."

Yes, it is indeed too slow. Although the silver dragon was completely suppressed, its will and ability to resist were too strong, so it can only be done by grinding it down.

It's unclear how much time it would take to completely obliterate the soul and will within this massive collection of spiritual power before absorbing it.

"Could you... pretend you're really dead and unconscious? Stop resisting, okay? I will, I'll try to be as quick as possible."

Kong Tianxu spoke sincerely, as if he were discussing something with it.

Damn!

Silver Dragon's originally beautiful eyes suddenly widened, turning almost blood-red in an instant, filled with resentment and hatred as sharp as steel needles.

However, Kong Tianxu's eyes lit up after he finished speaking.

Wait, lost the will to resist?

He took a half step back with his right leg, and a giant golden shadow materialized behind him before he unleashed a punch—

A warning from Heaven!

A massive golden fist shadow, carrying thousands of waves, surged forth! The instant it struck the silver dragon's spiritual body, it instantly melted it into a golden color, freezing it in mid-air, unable to move.

With a thought, Kong Tianxu's six tentacles of the Holy Spirit Puppet finally closed perfectly. After being struck by the Heavenly Commandment, the enormous resistance from the Silver Dragon's frantic resistance completely disappeared, allowing Kong Tianxu's puppet power to erode and ravage it.

His combat skills are not simply a combination of soul power and mental power, but rather possess the potential to perfectly integrate his own will into all his skills.

Kong Tianxu was surprised to find that the combination of the Heavenly Commandment and the Holy Spirit Puppet's innate abilities would produce such a wonderful chemical reaction.

A flood of mixed memories rushed in, and at this moment, the silver dragon seemed to have completely opened its heart to him, allowing him to peruse and destroy it...

Even...modification?

A vague thought flashed through Kong Tianxu's mind, but before he could delve into it, the tentacles that enveloped the silver dragon's body slowly opened, and a viscous, mercury-like liquid poured down, staining his sea of ​​consciousness with a brilliant silver light.

Within it, a glimmer of righteous lightning flickered and roamed.
