From an outsider's perspective, it seemed as if Xu Zihuang had severely injured this evil-eyed tyrant ruler with a cultivation level of 790,000 years with just a glance.
"Why?! Why is this happening?!" The silver blood vessels in the eyes of the Evil Eye Tyrant were increasing, and the emotion in his eyes had long since turned into terror.
"Yin and Yang complementing each other with three soul cores! Demigod-level mental power! How could you, a mere human, possibly achieve that?! Aa ...
It didn't even use its most powerful innate soul skill, Light of Time and Space. Although it was unwilling to admit it, it knew that even if it used Light of Time and Space, it would probably not change anything.
The Thorn Aura, the soul skill used by the Evil Eye Tyrant, is one of its most powerful innate soul skills. It's a perfect soul skill combining control, attack, and defense. Not only can it directly influence and attack the enemy's mental sea, but it also has another incredibly powerful effect: 50% of the damage the user suffers is directly reflected back to the opponent as mental damage.
Xu Zihuang, with his overwhelming mental superiority, was completely immune to 50% of the mental damage reported by the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord.
For the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, Xu Zihuang's attack was akin to a dimensional reduction. The Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord was severely restrained by Xu Zihuang.
Xu Zihuang remained suspended in the air, not pressing his advantage, and expressionlessly gave the Evil Eye Tyrant another chance to choose.
"Submission or death, the choice is yours. If you choose to submit, I can make you like them, and follow me into that realm."
As he spoke, beams of light appeared behind him. They were none other than Xu Zihuang's five soul spirits, transformed into human form.
The group consists of Tianmeng Bingcan, a young man with long, lazy, platinum-gold hair; Leiming Yanyuteng, a girl with delicate features yet a wild and untamed nature; and Anmo Xieshenhu, a bewitching woman with black hair and blood-red eyes.
The remaining Thunder Beasts also transformed into blonde, beast-eared lolis, their large golden eyes filled with affection for Xu Zihuang. The final Silver-Scaled White Whale was a silver-haired, purple-eyed girl. Her eyes were as clear as two precious amethysts, but compared to the other four Soul Spirits, they lacked a certain liveliness, as if something was missing. However, this ethereal quality only made her more captivating.
Apart from the Silver-Scaled White Whale, the other four spirits all wore expressions of excitement.
Especially the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
Back then, the Evil Eye Tyrant went to the Star Dou Great Forest to challenge the Beast God Emperor Tian, primarily to seize it. Now, seeing the Evil Eye Tyrant's miserable state, it felt an indescribable sense of pride and satisfaction.
Who told you to treat me like that back then! Humph! Now the tables have turned!
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm chuckled smugly at the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord, "Old Evil Eye, you've really gotten off easy this time. Zihuang is someone chosen by the gods. If you're smart enough, you'd better hurry up and give Zihuang some soul rings and soul bones."
"You are that Ice Silkworm?!" The Evil Eye Tyrant looked at the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm with suspicion and doubt, his deep voice sounding somewhat weak.
"Yes, that's me."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm proudly puffed out its chest.
"You didn't expect that I was able to escape from the Star Dou Great Forest. But I have already become Zi Huang's soul spirit. If you are willing to follow Zi Huang and become his soul spirit, you can naturally retain your spirit and intelligence like me. Of course, you can only be ranked after me."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm wasn't worried about the Evil Eye Tyrant's ill intentions. Given Xu Zihuang's personality, even if he ultimately chose to sign a contract with the Evil Eye Tyrant, it would definitely be a master-servant contract. Furthermore, Xu Zihuang's spiritual sea contained a divine imprint, something the Evil Eye Tyrant couldn't control.
In this way, it was naturally happy to take advantage of Xu Zihuang's power and vent its anger.
So, what's your choice?
Xu Zihuang opened and closed his eyes, but no emotion showed in the depths of his eyes. His gaze fell on the Evil Eye Tyrant once again.
He didn't necessarily want the Evil Eye Tyrant to become his soul spirit. Although the absorption of the soul ring and soul bone would be most perfect if the Evil Eye Tyrant were willing to merge with him, it wouldn't actually have much impact on him.
The Evil Eye Tyrant seemed to understand something, recognizing his current predicament, and spoke with a sense of relief.
"I have to admit that humans are indeed the most blessed race. Neither Di Tian nor I are destined to reach that realm. Since you are willing to give me this opportunity, I will follow you and see the scenery I have never experienced before."
Looking at the calmness deep within the eyes of the Evil Eye Tyrant, Xu Zihuang chuckled and once again used the Radiant Dragon Claw to connect to the Radiant Dragon Space.
"This will be the wisest choice you ever make."
Chapter 513 Advancement to Title, Bright Radiance Douluo Xu Zihuang
Inside the deep purple Radiant Dragon Space, Xu Zihuang and a miniature version of the Evil Eye Tyrant stood facing each other.
The original members of the Dragon Soul Mentorship Team, led by Wang Xiao and Yao Yang, stood guard around the perimeter.
Compared to when he rescued Xu Zihuang more than a decade ago, Yao Yang's appearance has hardly changed. Only with age and the improvement of his soul power cultivation, his demeanor has become more composed. Now, he has also broken through to the Title Douluo realm.
His Siren Martial Soul had no physical form; it was a special Martial Soul that existed between reality and illusion, and it was particularly adept at mental abilities. Although the Evil Eye Tyrant had concealed his soul power and mental energy, he still keenly sensed an inexplicable pressure and palpitations.
"The Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler." Yao Yang shook his head with a wry smile. His personal experience finally gave him a sense of reality.
"I never expected Zihuang to have grown to this level. No wonder he is so confident."
Wang Xiao smiled without saying a word, but simply placed his right hand on Yao Yang's shoulder, his eyes filled with a burning and excited light.
"Let us witness with our own eyes the moment when our young master is granted a title."
On the other side, Xu Zihuang also began to merge with the Evil Eye Tyrant.
The Evil Eye Tyrant slowly raised a tentacle and placed it against Xu Zihuang's palm. As Xu Zihuang chanted, a golden magic circle filled with light appeared beneath their feet.
A strange, brilliant golden spear rune suddenly flashed on Xu Zihuang's right wrist, and his soul power seemed to have been sublimated, giving him a sense of transcendence and superiority over this world.
The silver eyeball of the Evil Eye Tyrant's true form involuntarily contracted. After all, it had cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years, and both its spiritual power level and soul power quality were infinitely close to the god level. However, when its own black soul power merged with Xu Zihuang's divine golden soul power, it was completely suppressed and could not resist at all.
"This is……"
The Evil Eye Tyrant's heart was instantly filled with shock. Xu Zihuang had not only reached the demigod level in terms of spiritual power, but his soul power had also begun to transform into divine power. Although this transformation had only just begun, it further verified what Tianmeng Ice Silkworm had said.
Xu Zihuang is a person favored by the gods.
Given Xu Zihuang's demonstrated talent and abilities, he will almost certainly achieve a divine position in the future.
A deep, eerie black aura emanated from the shrunken form of the Evil Eye Tyrant, enveloping Xu Zihuang's body. During the fusion process, it was horrified to discover that Xu Zihuang's physical body had also reached the god-level.
The repeated shocks had numbed even the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord. The thought that had crossed his mind was thus dispelled.
Facing Xu Zihuang, whose spiritual power, soul power, and physical body have all reached the god level, it would be a pipe dream to try to possess him.
Only at this moment did the Evil Eye Tyrant truly and willingly begin to merge with Xu Zihuang. This Xu Zihuang was enough for it to abandon its own dignity to follow him.
A slight smile curved Xu Zihuang's lips. From the beginning, he had known what the Evil Eye Tyrant was thinking. But he didn't care, because his confidence stemmed from his strength. He believed that the Evil Eye Tyrant would willingly choose to submit, just as before.
Completely opening his mind, the primal power of the Evil Eye Tyrant merged more and more seamlessly with Xu Zihuang, showing no signs of rejection whatsoever. There wasn't even a feeling of expansion in Xu Zihuang's body due to the immense power of the Evil Eye Tyrant's 790,000 years of cultivation. After these powers merged into his body, they quickly became one with Xu Zihuang's abilities.
Xu Zihuang's entire body was enveloped in a halo of black and brilliant gold. The eight spirit rings of his Golden Eye Martial Soul reappeared beneath his feet.
Red, red, red, red, red, red, bright gold, blue gold—eight spirit rings radiated a magnificent and majestic light. Such an astonishing combination of spirit rings is unique in the history of spirit masters.
As time passed, the true form of the Evil Eye Tyrant gradually became illusory. Its life force dissipated, and a brand new blood-red spirit ring, with eight faint golden lines, settled in the position of the ninth spirit ring.
The cultivation level of the Evil Eye Tyrant was already extremely close to 800,000 years. After losing its original body and merging with Xu Zihuang, it successfully broke through the 800,000-year bottleneck.
The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, which was inside Xu Zihuang's spiritual sea, also excitedly broke the seal on its spiritual origin, increasing the age of Xu Zihuang's ninth soul ring.
Two more pale golden lines appeared on the blood-red spirit ring that the Evil Eye Tyrant had bestowed upon Xu Zihuang. Then, the spirit ring became incomparably dazzling, transforming into a noble silver-gold color.
Red! Red! Red! Red! Red! Bright gold! Blue gold! Silver gold! A total of nine spirit rings pulsed around Xu Zihuang. Six 100,000-year spirit rings and three 1,000,000-year spirit rings!
The main color of a million-year spirit ring is still gold, but because the attributes and abilities of the spirit beasts it produces are different, the spirit ring is surrounded by halos of different colors.
From this moment on, Xu Zihuang truly became a Title Douluo-level powerhouse. A nine-ring Title Douluo!
The title he would be given to himself came to mind almost instantly: Minghuang. Minghuang Douluo Xu Zihuang.
The two characters "Minghuang" represent his two martial souls, and also imply that the brilliant light of the sun and moon will forever shine on the continent!
The true form of the Evil Eye Tyrant became completely illusory. However, it did not merge into Xu Zihuang's spiritual sea, but instead transformed into an eerie silver moon earring in Xu Zihuang's right ear, mirroring the golden sun earring transformed by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
Where the Evil Eye Tyrant's true form vanished, a head bone, as clear as silver crystal, remained. This head bone was remarkably similar to the one Xu Zihuang had once fused with, and it was engraved with obscure and intricate strange silver patterns. The dense soul power fluctuations and spiritual aura were almost tangible, as if solidifying the space itself. A halo of light flowed within the space, and every node radiated countless dazzling beams of light.
Most strangely, there was a deep, dark blue eye between the eyebrows of this head bone. It didn't look big, but it shimmered with an eerie light.
"You once absorbed the head soul bone of my youngest son. By fusing it with the soul bone I gave you, you can elevate the quality of your soul bone to the million-year level." The weak voice of the Evil Eye Tyrant echoed in Xu Zihuang's ears, without much emotional fluctuation.
Such is the nature of the Evil Eye Tyrant; it always prioritizes its own interests above all else. It may have some affection for its descendants, but it's certainly not deep. Its previous rage stemmed more from Xu Zihuang destroying two of its potential targets for possession.
The soul bone that the Evil Eye Tyrant gave to Xu Zihuang was much larger than an ordinary head soul bone; it was like a helmet, placed on top of Xu Zihuang's head.
Under the control of the Evil Eye Tyrant, the fusion of the two head soul bones proceeded exceptionally smoothly, essentially a 100% success rate. Furthermore, the golden and silver dragon scale between Xu Zihuang's brows also underwent a change.
The golden and silver dragon scale silently transformed into a golden and silver liquid, miraculously merging into the dark blue eye. Golden and silver patterns began to appear within that eye.
Chapter 514 War Resumes
Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.
In the quiet courtyard, snow-white apricot blossoms drifted down in the wind, their delicate fragrance lingering in the air.
Ye Guyi and Ning Tian sat upright on the stone chairs, gazing tenderly at the charming and lovely Yu Ningqing.
Yu Ningqing is now two and a half years old and has already learned to walk. She is currently playing in the courtyard under the close care of two maids, her clear, sweet laughter ringing out from time to time.
That's just how children are; they're naturally curious about everything around them. It takes time for them to develop an understanding of the world before they gradually show their quiet and gentle side as girls.
Yu Ningqing wore a magnificent gold dress, the exquisite texture of which revealed its superior quality. Her long, flowing, purplish-gold hair cascaded over her shoulders, reflecting in her clear, light purple eyes.
Although her cheeks still had a bit of baby fat, her delicate features perfectly inherited the best features of Xu Zihuang and Ning Tian, as if she were born with the best qualities of heaven and earth and was blessed by the world.
Yu Ningqing frolicked with her fair little feet, her beautiful eyes full of lively spirit. Her neatly combed hair was also messed up, prompting the two maids to quickly chase after her.
"Miss, please take your time."
Noticing the unusual emotion in Ning Tian's eyes, Ye Guyi parted her red lips and asked softly, "Thinking about Tianhuang?"
"Hmm." Ning Tian's eyes dimmed slightly, revealing deep worry.
"Sister Gu Yi, I'm wondering if Tian Huang encountered any problems during his seclusion, since he hasn't returned yet."
"Don't worry," Ye Guyi said with a smile, "Didn't he leave you a mental imprint before he left? Since the mental imprint is stable, it means he didn't encounter any danger."
Ning Tian was naturally aware of all this. If she hadn't been able to sense Yu Tianhuang's safety through this spiritual imprint, she wouldn't have been able to sit still like this.
At this moment, Yu Ningqing ran over excitedly and snuggled into Ning Tian's arms, her little face beaming with a carefree and joyful smile.
"Mother."
"You may leave now." Ning Tian nodded to the two maids, then affectionately picked up Yu Ningqing and gently instructed, "Ningqing, you can't be like this when you grow up. Girls should pay more attention to their image and manners. Otherwise, when Daddy comes back, he might not like Ningqing anymore."
"I don't want my dad to dislike Ning Qing."
Hearing Ning Tian's words, Yu Ningqing immediately looked aggrieved. She pouted, her eyes glistening with tears, but she stubbornly held back from crying.
"Why are you saying all this to Ning Qing now?" Looking at the pitiful and obedient Yu Ning Qing, Ye Guyi felt a surge of maternal warmth and took Yu Ning Qing from Ning Tian's arms.
"Ningqing, let Auntie give you a hug."
Over the course of more than a year, Ye Guyi confessed many things to Ning Tian, including her background.
She is not Xu Zihuang's biological sister, but rather an adopted daughter of Xu Zihuang's parents.
To Ye Guyi's surprise, Ning Tian didn't seem overly astonished after learning about these events. However, the two women later had a long, private conversation. The content of their discussion remains unknown.
Of course, Ye Guyi did not reveal Xu Zihuang's true identity. She felt it was best for Xu Zihuang to tell Ning Tian this matter himself.
