The Glory of the Sun and Moon in the Peerless Tang Sect

Holy Spirit Slash! The second soul skill of the Holy Angel Martial Soul.

Amplified by her fifth soul skill, Holy Sword, Ye Guyi's second soul skill, Holy Spirit Slash, was incredibly powerful.

Ma Xiaotao dared not be negligent, and her first, second, and third spirit rings lit up almost in succession.

Her second soul skill was Phoenix Reborn, and her third soul skill was Phoenix Wings Soaring. Under the influence of these two amplifying soul skills, she actively faced the massive golden sword beam descending from the sky. Her fiery wings suddenly flapped, creating a dazzling trail of flames, making her resemble a fiery meteor.

Then, another burst of Phoenix Fire Stream erupted from her mouth. Phoenix Fire Stream was only her first hundred-year-level soul skill, but it was also the one she used most frequently and was most proficient with. As it was expelled, the Phoenix Fire Stream transformed into a lifelike golden-red fire phoenix, clashing fiercely with the Holy Spirit Slash.

The violent surge of soul power caused Ye Guyi to freeze in place, while Ma Xiaotao let out a muffled groan. In their first exchange, Ma Xiaotao was already at a disadvantage.

Although the Fire Phoenix Martial Soul is powerful, it still lags behind the Holy Angel Martial Soul.

The two did not stop, but continued to approach each other.

Golden-red light rippled around Ma Xiaotao's legs, flowing backward. Two beams of fire suddenly shot out from the soles of her feet, arriving at Ye Guyi's head before she could react.

The speed increased so rapidly in a short period of time that wherever Ma Xiaotao passed, a series of explosions and shrieks erupted in the air.

Facing Ye Guyi, Ma Xiaotao's only advantages were her soul power cultivation and the number of soul bones. The soul bones attached to her legs were obtained when she hunted a soul beast to acquire her sixth soul ring. That soul beast had a cultivation level of over 40,000 years and, fortunately, dropped two leg soul bones. This situation was extremely rare.

To some extent, geniuses like Ma Xiaotao are also blessed by heaven, just not as good as Xu Zihuang.

Ma Xiaotao's body spun in the air, and the beams of fire that shot out from her feet transformed into two fire tornadoes, each over three meters in diameter, sweeping towards Ye Guyi from the left and right. The fire tornadoes carried unparalleled power, and the surrounding space began to distort slightly due to their terrifying heat.

It is even more awe-inspiring in the darkness.

Ye Guyi snorted coldly, maintaining the posture of holding the Holy Sword high. However, this time, her fourth spirit ring lit up beside her.

The two pairs of angelic wings behind her first unfurled, then slammed down forcefully. Layers upon layers of divine light gushed forth from her body like a spring, blocking the two fiery tornadoes.

If it were just the fourth soul skill, Holy Light Spirit Array, it certainly wouldn't be able to withstand the combined attack of Ma Xiaotao's two 40,000-year soul bone skills.

The reason she wasn't at a disadvantage was because the Holy Light Spirit Array had been enhanced with the effect of her right arm's Soul Bone Skill, Scorching Sun Flame. Scorching Sun Flame is a support-type Soul Skill. It can be used in conjunction with offensive Soul Skills to amplify damage, or with defensive Soul Skills to enhance defense.

Ye Guyi's right arm seemed to have turned the same color as the angelic holy sword in her hand. The golden light carried a scorching aura.

Ma Xiaotao's face stiffened.

Soul rings and soul bones originating from the same soul beast have a peculiar connection to each other.

When Ye Guyi used the right arm soul bone skill, Scorching Sun Flame, Ma Xiaotao knew perfectly well that the right arm soul bone produced by the Golden Flame Bird had been fused with by Ye Guyi.

Ye Guyi's lips curled into a slight smile. Seeing Ma Xiaotao's expression, the pent-up emotions in her heart finally found release. Holding the Angelic Holy Sword, she unleashed a sword beam.

The two sides reached a stalemate for a short time. Without using his 100,000-year soul bone skill, it wouldn't be easy for Ye Guyi to suppress Ma Xiaotao in a short period of time.

After all, Ma Xiaotao, as a student nurtured by Shrek Academy, is also a prodigy among the younger generation of Soul Masters.

In the repeated clashes, platinum and gold-red lights flashed continuously in the air.

The inner court disciples on the crystal surface were dazzled by the sight. However, being so far away, unless their martial souls possessed special abilities, they could only get a general idea.

"Tianhuang, let's begin then."

On the other side, Wu Ming withdrew her gaze, and with a delicate shout, she raised her right hand as she charged towards Xu Zihuang.

Her second spirit ring shone brightly, a cluster of golden-red flames dancing in her palm. The next instant, intense golden-red light blazed around her body, illuminating the night sky in a golden-red hue.

This is Wu Ming's second soul skill, Golden Crow True Fire. Its effect is similar to Ma Xiaotao's second soul skill, Phoenix Reborn from the Ashes.

She then placed her palms together, and a golden-red beam of light instantly shot out from her hands.

Golden Crow True Fire Breaks!

Wu Ming's first soul skill, Golden Crow True Fire Break, was certainly inferior to Ma Xiaotao's twin-leg soul bone skill, Flame Tornado. However, amplified by his second soul skill, the two soul skills complemented each other, resulting in a fire pillar with a cross-sectional diameter of one meter. Wherever the scorching golden-red fire pillar passed, the air seemed to ignite, rippling out large, distorted, water-like waves.

However, Xu Zihuang simply followed the spear's movement, his Thunder God Spear swiftly thrusting forward. A dark purple spear light, carrying an extremely sharp aura, swept past, instantly shattering Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Fire Break.

"This is attribute suppression?!" Wu Ming was shocked, then his face showed a look of realization.

"Ultimate Lightning, it's actually Ultimate Lightning?!"

Wu Ming, who dodged the spear's edge, felt no fear; instead, his fighting spirit soared.

Xu Zihuang swung the Thor's Spear without hesitation. Each swing brought down a bolt of lightning, accompanied by a deafening roar.

He did not use the Soul Skill "Thunder Forest" attached to the right leg bone of the Thunderous Hell Vine, which is an ability that the Thunder God Spear itself possesses.

His first soul skill, the Purple Radiance Thunder Prison Dragon Martial Soul, originated from the soul ring of the Thunderous Hell Vine. This Thunder God Spear also inherited the Thunderous Hell Vine's ability to draw upon heavenly lightning. Previously, he could actually use the unique properties of the Thunderous Hell Vine's right leg bone to draw upon heavenly lightning, but he couldn't actively control it. That is, until he acquired the Thunder God Spear skill.

Each bolt of heavenly lightning was almost as powerful as the Golden Crow True Fire Break that Wu Ming had just unleashed.

Thunder rumbled, and Wu Ming was completely on the defensive. And this was even without Yu Tianhuang using any other soul skills. One can only imagine her frustration.

She can lose to Yu Tianhuang, but she absolutely cannot lose in this way.

At that moment, Wu Ming activated her jet-black seventh spirit ring without hesitation. In an instant, she transformed into a golden-red fire maiden. A loud bird cry rang out from her mouth. With a flick of her wings, she blocked the bolts of heavenly lightning.

The blue-purple lightning struck the Golden Crow's body, creating large ripples of light, but it did not affect Wu Ming in the slightest.

This is the power of a Martial Soul True Body. The aura emanating from her body instantly multiplied, closing in on Xu Zihuang.

But just as Wu Ming was about to reach Xu Zihuang, sixteen golden and silver tentacles, each a hundred meters long, emerged from the void, four of which precisely wrapped around Wu Ming's body, which had transformed into the Golden Crow.

The skill of a 100,000-year-old soul ring: Touch of the Soul.

Xu Zihuang never felt that using a 100,000-year-old soul skill to suppress Wu Ming was unfair. Because it was simply part of his ability.

This was also the first time he had demonstrated the effect of this soul skill in front of everyone from Shrek Academy.

Impacted by the mental shockwave energy contained within the golden and silver tentacles, the light emanating from Wu Ming's Golden Crow True Body dimmed at a visible speed. Before long, she was forced to revert to her Martial Soul True Body state.

A series of crisp cracking sounds rang out as the Golden Crow's true form shattered, transforming into countless golden rays that dissipated into the air. Wu Ming's limbs were tightly bound by four tentacles as she glared at Xu Zihuang.

Losing to Yu Tianhuang was one thing, but the actions she was forced to take now were far too humiliating.

Xu Zihuang held Thor's Spear directly at Wu Ming. He realized that Wu Ming's posture, with his limbs bound, was somewhat indecent, so he quickly withdrew his soul skill.

"Senior Wu, I guess I win."

Wu Ming's pretty face flushed slightly, a rare occurrence, and she said angrily, "Tianhuang, I've discovered that you're not exactly an honest person either."

After saying this, she released her martial spirit again and fell downwards.

While the inner disciples below were still marveling at Xu Zihuang's formidable strength, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion twitched at the corners of their mouths.

Just then, all eyes were drawn to the higher sky above where Xu Zihuang was located.

As Xu Zihuang and Wu Ming settled their score, the contest between Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao also reached its final decisive stage.

The stronger the Soul Master, the easier it is to determine a winner. This is because among low-level Soul Masters, their cultivation levels are similar, and the overall strength difference is not significant. However, as their cultivation levels increase, the differences in the quality of their Martial Soul, their foundation, and other factors become apparent.

A dazzling flash of fire streaked across the sky as a golden-red phoenix soared through the air. Its magnificent fiery red tail feathers and perfect physique exuded the majesty of the king of birds.

It was Ma Xiaotao who unleashed her Martial Soul True Form, transforming into a fire phoenix.

With a clear and melodious phoenix cry, the blazing golden-red flames instantly condensed, transforming into a seven-meter-long black phoenix that shot out like lightning.

This attack contained the terrifying power generated by compressing together four soul skills: the will of her own Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, Phoenix Reborn in Flames, Phoenix Wings Soaring, Phoenix Piercing Clouds Strike, and the Phoenix Burst Strike soul skill attached to her right arm soul bone.

With the added amplification from her Martial Soul True Body, this is the strongest attack she can currently unleash. It's also a secret technique of Shrek Academy's inner court, suitable only for Soul Masters like Ma Xiaotao who primarily attack opponents in energy form.

Wu Ming wasn't the only one at a disadvantage from start to finish; Ma Xiaotao was in the same boat. The difference was that the gap between Ma Xiaotao and Ye Guyi wasn't as large as the gap between Wu Ming and Xu Zihuang.

But Ma Xiaotao knew very well that if she continued like this, she wouldn't have much of a chance of winning. That's why she chose to take this gamble.

Faced with Ma Xiaotao's all-out offensive, Ye Guyi simply opened her left hand calmly.

A delicate crimson lotus appeared in the palm of her left hand, slowly rotating, its glow flowing between her fingers, possessing a breathtaking beauty. It seemed to contain extremely terrifying energy, yet it was incredibly stable. All the energy was contained within it, without even a trace of heat escaping.

The crimson lotus floated slowly forward, and then suddenly expanded the moment it touched the black phoenix.

The crimson lotus, expanding to over a hundred meters in diameter, instantly engulfed the black phoenix. Surrounding it were even larger, gradually fading, phantom fire lotuses. The largest phantom fire lotus occupied a space spanning a thousand meters in radius.

An uncontrolled, earth-shattering explosion suddenly erupted.

"boom!"

Destructive energy spread from the void, causing the entire space to tremble. Terrifyingly high temperatures raged through the space.

Even within Shrek City, the beautiful phantom of the red lotus can be seen.

Apricot Blossom's left arm, a skill from the 100,000-year-old raging fire, is the Purgatory Red Lotus!

Chapter 353 A Night of Intertwined Fates and Desire

Although the Ten Thousand Years of Blazing Fire Apricot Blossoms is not a perfect match for Ye Guyi's Sacred Angel Martial Soul, its soul rings and soul bones still provide a huge boost to Ye Guyi.

Leaving aside her 100,000-year-old Martial Soul True Body, the two Soul Skills granted to her by the 100,000-year-old Soul Bone alone are enough to elevate her overall strength to an extremely astonishing level.

The Lava Purgatory is a domain-type soul skill, and the Crimson Lotus Purgatory is an area-of-effect attack soul skill. Even among 100,000-year-old soul skills, these two are extremely powerful. Moreover, when these two soul skills are used together, their power can be stacked.

In Xu Zihuang's memories of his previous life, the Octagonal Ice Grass only provided Huo Yuhao with three soul skills. Two of them were amplification-type soul skills, and only the Octagonal Omnidirectional Thrust was an area-of-effect attack soul skill.

Unlike the ice-attribute Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, the fire-attribute Blazing Apricot is more adept at killing.

In terms of destructive power alone, the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass cannot compare to the Fiery Apricot. It is only because of the mutual restraint of their attributes that one of them can clearly dominate the other.

Ye Guyi held back against Ma Xiaotao. Even so, a winner was decided between the two women.

The crimson lotus, with a diameter exceeding one hundred meters, was at the epicenter of that terrifying explosion.

Ma Xiaotao's transformed fire phoenix form desperately resisted the raging fire energy generated by the eruption of the Purgatory Red Lotus, its body flashing with dazzling golden-red light. Her bloodline, purified into a fire phoenix martial soul, was already close to the ultimate fire attribute. However, Ye Guyi's Purgatory Red Lotus was a true ultimate fire-level soul skill.

Liehuo Xingjiaoshu possesses the attribute of extreme fire. Originally, in order to absorb her soul ring and soul bone, one must also possess a martial soul of the extreme fire level, otherwise it would be difficult to withstand the impact of the soul ring and soul bone energy, and it is very likely to end up exploding and dying.

Of course, if Liehuo Xingjiaoshu willingly sacrifices herself, or voluntarily forms a contract with a Soul Master to become a Soul Spirit, then the situation is different.

The reason Ye Guyi was able to absorb the soul ring and soul bone of Liehuo Xingjiaoshu was because of the effects of the 100,000-year-old Acacia Heartbreak Red. As a divine herb among immortal herbs, the Acacia Heartbreak Red suppressed the aura of Liehuo Xingjiaoshu.

Therefore, Liehuo Xingjiao's spirit ring and spirit bone were almost perfectly fused with Ye Guyi. The power of the spirit ring and spirit bone was preserved to the greatest extent.

Just as Ma Xiaotao was about to be swallowed by the incredibly solid crimson lotus, a deep rumble suddenly exploded. In an instant, lightning danced across the sky, and streaks of electricity descended from the heavens.

The space instantly transformed into a sea of ​​lightning, and the lightning falling from the sky formed a lightning cage, enveloping the crimson lotus within.

The outside was a dark purple, while the inside of the cage was crimson red, clearly distinct.

The one who made the move was naturally Xu Zihuang. He used the Thunderous Hell Vine's right leg bone skill, Lightning Forest. This was the full power of Lightning Forest.

Rather than destroying enemies, the Forest of Lightning is more inclined to control opponents.

Relying on his spiritual power at the tangible-intangible realm, Xu Zihuang used this skill with effortless ease on his second use. Furthermore, he transformed the Thunder Forest, creating this lightning cage.

The two 100,000-year-old soul skills, Purgatory Crimson Lotus and Lightning Forest, began to clash. Fire and lightning soul skills are known for their powerful destructive force, but their direct confrontation did not produce the expected grandeur.
