Unable to suppress the restlessness of her martial soul, Long Yeyue decided to ignore it. Upon seeing Qian Gu Xing Ci's appearance, she was filled with rage. "Are the people of the Qian Gu family itching for a beating again?"
"Good heavens, this madman actually remembered it!" Qian Gu Xing Ci exclaimed dramatically, but his hands moved faster than anyone else's.
He found himself holding the Panlong Staff in his palm, and the staff emitted a deep dragon's roar, echoing the surging power within his body.
During his month in Dragon Valley, Qian Gu Xing Ci spent a lot of time understanding himself. His innate domain, the Ziwei domain, revealed his destiny as an emperor, suggesting that he should follow the laws of fate to achieve great things. However, he had no intention of conquering the world; he only sought to cultivate and transcend.
Insight is what I ponder, and resilience is what he refuses to accept!
It's just a coincidence that he chose his own destination and destiny to become the strongest, but he has to choose the path in between!
People say that fate is hard to defy, but his indomitable will, from the moment he was born, was directed against so-called destiny.
The Emperor's Will is born from unyielding spirit, and the Emperor's Will, by exploiting destiny, in turn tempers unyielding spirit. The two complement each other, forming a perfect closed loop, allowing his willpower cultivation to enter a realm where it does not require deliberate practice and naturally improves day and night.
At this moment, his dignity and tranquility finally achieved a perfect balance. He didn't need to deliberately release his aura; his imposing presence was natural and effortless.
An emperor may not necessarily be incapable of being benevolent!
Even he himself did not realize that the Dharma form, which usually required the activation of two Martial Soul True Bodies to manifest, quietly appeared behind him, slowly placing an ancient imperial crown on his head.
The realm of the stick god!
From the moment of his breakthrough, Qian Gu Xing Ci realized that the title of "God of the Stick" was not a pretense to show off his high level of cultivation, but rather a way to bring him to the level of divine and mortal realm that only Limit Douluo could reach!
"The other extreme of the same path as the Dragon God Lord."
Aside from a certain Phoenix of Light, beings of the Light attribute are generally a mix of those who hate evil and those who are peaceful. During this time, the Light Dragon King and the Peaceful Dragon Grid went online, carefully studying the self-cultivation of the pendant, watching the battle with peace of mind, and then discovered the aura released by the Ancient Star Words and became excited.
If the Light Dragon King were to face the Dragon God with utmost respect, regardless of public or private matters, then if he were to be born under the command of the Eternal Star, they would likely quarrel amongst themselves in private.
There is no superior or inferior path; it's simply a matter of finding the direction that best suits each person.
"Originally, I didn't want to meddle in other people's business. However, since someone dares to impersonate the Dark Dragon Clan and insult my family, it is necessary to clean house."
As soon as they finished speaking, Qian Gu Xing Ci and the Dark Dragon King took a step forward at the same time.
One man and one dragon, one staff and one sword, the shadow of the staff and the golden light of the sword intertwined, transforming into a dazzling torrent that tore through the heavens and earth!
Seeing that she couldn't dodge, Long Yeyue saw that the black dragon coiled around her body to form a protective shield to withstand the attack, and its power was still within her tolerance range. So, a look of contempt flashed in her eyes. The two people opposite her were just putting on a show, and the time to counterattack was now.
The change was as swift as a passing shower; in her terrified gaze, a golden thread as thin as a hair appeared on the body of the world-destroying black dragon.
"Pfft-"
With a cracking sound, the world-destroying black dragon was neatly cleaved in two! The pitch-black dragon blood poured down like a torrential rain, sizzling and corroding as it hit the ground.
Immediately following, Qian Gu Xing Ci's Panlong Staff slammed into her face with immense force! With a dull thud, Long Ye Yue was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of dark blood.
Long Yeyue's fighting style is similar to Martial Soul Mimicry, or a state similar to that of a Grandmaster, but it is more advanced. After being tested by Qian Gu Xing Ci's staff, the relatively fragile body of the old woman Long also has the ultimate combat power!
The world-destroying black dragon, cleaved in two, did not simply vanish. The scattered, jet-black dragon blood and bits of flesh rapidly wriggled and coalesced, reforming into a complete dragon shape in just a few breaths, though its aura was slightly weaker than before.
"Her dragon bloodline contains something else mixed in; to be precise, it is a corrupted bloodline with a faint trace of dragon aura, which is why she is not greatly suppressed by the Dragon Slayer Blade."
A strange glint flashed in the Dark Dragon King's eyes, and he transformed into a streak of black and white light, charging forward. Qian Gu Xing Ci dared not be careless; he activated his Three-Word Battle Armor, and his aura surged once more as he closely followed.
The situation has now become clear: it's now a battle of man against man, and dragon against dragon!
Chapter 202 The Separated Martial Soul True Body, Kuku's Banner Emerging from Black Qi
Above the sky, the staff shimmered with a lustrous, amethyst-like sheen, silently enacting the cycle of life spanning millennia within.
Continents rose and sank into the deep sea, civilizations ignited their flames and turned to ashes. On the ruins of the world, life went from innocent newborns to withered bones, ultimately transforming into a desolate landscape indistinguishable from the dragon graveyard.
A history spanning millions of years is compressed into the blink of an eye. The camera zooms out, and the magnificent world just now is nothing more than a speck of dust flickering in the frame, while similar existences are as vast as the ocean in the boundless void!
Qian Gu Xing Ci mastered both the micro and macro perspectives, excelling in both. His creations, including the world-destroying, creation-generating, limitless, Zhongtian Ziwei domains, and the Holy Radiance domain evolved after resonating with the Dragon-Slaying Blade, together formed his debut work after becoming the God of Staff!
It should be named the Cycle of Heaven and Earth!
Immersed in the true essence of reincarnation, Long Yeyue had forgotten the danger lurking around her eyes, which still looked like mosquito coils when she was being beaten!
It wasn't until her body lost its support and began to fall freely that her almond-sized brain finally started to work.
The eternal star remains silent, focusing solely on overwhelming force, its power intertwined with the cycle of heaven and earth. This cycle of heaven and earth is not merely a technique, but a state—a state where all abilities are fused into one!
Strategically despise the enemy, tactically take the enemy seriously, and kill the enemy on the battlefield. Qian Gu Xing Ci deeply understands this principle. He uses his long staff to strike the face, while his mental energy is always focused on the details. He then concretizes these details to make the old man happy!
"Have you had enough?" The demon that crawled out of hell roared at Qian Gu Xing Ci.
A jet-black battle armor appeared on Long Yeyue's body. This was the first time she had activated a four-word battle armor since following in the footsteps of the Sea God and becoming an evil soul master. The metal armor plates writhed violently, struggling to adapt to their master's contorted body.
Six red and three orange-gold soul rings rose up, and the rich blood energy surged like a tide, making it impossible to see which ring was glowing.
"Breath like a tidal wave, the world-destroying black dragon roars across heaven and earth!" The raging black and red flames gathered into the shape of a dragon, breaking through the attack whose power had been largely consumed by her physical body.
The Soul Skill Named Thousand-Year Star Farewell, inherited from the detached martial soul lineage, couldn't hold back and bared his teeth for a breath of fresh air.
Long Yeyue's soul skill simultaneously affects both her martial soul and herself; the world-destroying black dragon opens its abyssal maw and spews dragon breath.
The Dragon Slayer Blade excitedly received Long Yeyue's diligent service, its blade growing ever colder and sharper, almost as if it were shouting "Use more force!"
The Dark Dragon King held an absolute advantage, his Dragon Slayer Blade repeatedly slicing through the body of the World-Destroying Black Dragon, each recovery fading the mournful cries of the soul echoing within it.
"Relying on the sacrifice of the dead to recover is a very despicable act even among sinful dragons. Those dead souls seem to have made this dragon's mental state very abnormal." The Dark Dragon King looked at the ferocious world-destroying black dragon with disdain and a hint of loneliness. "My dragon soul strength has not yet reached the god level, so I don't have any good way to deal with it. For now, I can only wait until those dead souls are exhausted."
The Dragon King of Light spoke with deep concern: "The situation on that child's side is not good. According to his description, he and that beast who defiled the dragon bloodline were probably at the level of the initial Limit Douluo. After the armor on the other party appeared, his aura was already close to the highest level below the God level."
At this moment, Qian Gu Xing Ci was undoubtedly suppressed by Long Ye Yue, who was amplified by the four-word battle armor. The four-word battle armor, the highest crystallization of human soul guidance technology, had a terrifying amplification effect on soul masters.
"It seems that after comprehending the God of Staff, my strength, relying on the Three-Word Battle Armor, is roughly at the level of a quasi-demigod." Qian Gu Xing Ci stated the test results without any fluctuation.
"If you hadn't become an evil spirit master, I would have chosen to go all out to clear my name and redeem myself. But killing an unstable element is far more important than taking revenge myself."
Having said that, he slowly opened his right hand, a gray light emanating from his palm. A deep, dark gate to the underworld appeared, and Harosa's figure slowly emerged from it.
Qian Gu Xing Ci would never engage in internal strife when it came to maneuvering. Long Ye Yue, a quasi-god who acted recklessly and was even more dangerous than the Ghost Emperor, was better off dead sooner rather than later.
The only trouble in the past was the fear of being discovered, but here, Zhuo Shi and Feng Wuyu were burning with the flame of life, and now they were on their deathbeds, about to die, thus releasing the final seal for the arrival of Harosa.
"How should we handle this?" Harosa asked coldly.
"Just kill him."
"Ah."
Harosa's fingers lightly brushed across the Netherworld Chant in his hand, and clusters of cold, gray Netherfire ignited around him. Without warning, fine ash began to fall from the sky. In an instant, the entire world was transformed, dragged into a deathly, silent realm of death.
The realm of rebirth in the underworld!
A pale blue light shone in the empty pupils of countless underworld creatures, and bizarre skeletons coalesced into a surging sea of bones.
Harosa's body transformed into a streak of light, his rapier flitting around Long Yeyue like a butterfly flitting among flowers. If one ignored the constantly blooming crimson lines, the movement possessed an almost cruel beauty.
Just now, it seemed that he was assessing the combat strength of Long Yeyue's true form, and the gray crystal on Harosa's forehead lit up.
Within the domain, twelve enormous stone gates slowly opened, from which emerged twelve humanoid undead creatures clad in armor. Beneath each of them, the unique domain halo of the three-word battle armor appeared.
A fusion of the spiritual realm, an advanced form of rebirth in the underworld, a feast of death!
“If that’s all there is to it, you’ll be dead within ten minutes,” Harosa gave the most conservative estimate.
In the blink of an eye, Harosa's figure split into twelve, and countless sword lights fell like rain!
Watching from below, Qian Gu Xing Ci focused his gaze on the Underworld Chant in Halosa's hand. As far as he knew, the Underworld Chant was a divine artifact that Halosa had crafted on his own, incorporating the Underworld Sword Martial Soul into it to achieve the effect of transforming the Martial Soul into a divine artifact.
Although the veteran quasi-gods haven't reached godhood, they each have their own paths. Yun Ming is working towards godhood, Chen Xinjie is taking a shortcut with the Sea God's Helmet, Qian Gu Die Ting is pursuing the God-Breaking Move of the Unyielding Staff Technique, and Harosa is forging a different path by transforming his martial soul into a divine weapon...
"The only agility-based Soul Master in the narrow sense of the Limit..." Qian Gu Xing Ci said with peace of mind as an audience member. In a broader sense, the two mentioned above are also Soul Masters.
He turned to look at the two holy dragons below, whose auras were on the verge of dissipating, and floated to their side to ask, "As comrades, do you two have any last words? I am willing to convey them on your behalf."
The two were clearly surprised that Qian Gu Xing Ci would take the initiative to look after them. After hesitating for a moment, they still said, "The children have gone back to get reinforcements. We hope that you can guarantee that our belongings will fall into their hands."
Qian Gu Xing Ci nodded: "Okay."
"Martial Soul True Form!"
Long Yeyue let out a hysterical roar. The World-Destroying Black Dragon was summoned and actually withstood the Dark Dragon King's slash that cleaved it in two vertically. Then, it flew towards its master without regard for anything else.
With a single strike, he severed a pair of angel wings. Instead of being reabsorbed as energy, the wings transformed into a ball of light, which the Dark Dragon King quickly retrieved.
Everyone looked up and saw that Long Yeyue's figure had undergone a drastic change. Her body became hunched and twisted, her skin was covered with fine black dragon scales, and two pairs of membranous wings adorned with tattered feathers protruded from her back.
"So this is what the true form of a separated martial soul looks like..." Qian Gu Xing Ci was imagining with great interest what Luo San Pao's true form of martial soul would look like, when he suddenly noticed Long Ye Yue rushing towards him.
Qian Gu Xing Ci subconsciously stepped back slightly, and the Panlong Staff transformed into its Martial Soul True Form, striking towards Long Ye Yue with the staff.
"Isn't she targeting me?" Qian Gu Xing Ci's heart stirred. He realized that Long Ye Yue's direction hadn't changed at all, and she wasn't aiming for him, who seemed to be her weak point.
As the smoke and dust cleared, Long Yeyue was seen holding the Sky-Piercing Banner in her hand!
She swung the Sky-Supporting Banner sharply, forcibly taking in the souls of Zhuoshi and Feng Wuyu, who were about to dissipate, as well as the souls of the dead who had been imprisoning her.
Her mark was imprinted on the divine artifact, and the Sky-Supporting Banner began to emit black smoke!
Chapter 203: The End of Long Yeyue's Story, the Plan Takes Effect
"Hahaha, you didn't expect this, did you, Golden Tree? You've made a wedding dress for me!" Long Yeyue laughed heartily.
She hid in a dark corner when Shrek was destroyed. Seeing the Sky Banner's ability to contain many souls, and thinking of the buzzing of dead souls in her ears, she had long been envious.
Because the Sky Banner was left at Shrek's old site, she absolutely couldn't get it under the Golden Tree's nose. Fortunately, the Shrek people brought it out.
"It must be a contingency plan left by the Sea God. From now on, it will be called the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls!"
The people below, including Qian Gu Xing Ci, felt particularly unlucky and had to fight again.
Harosa rarely said, "Being affected by the spirits of the dead proves that you are not outstanding among righteous spirit masters, and are even more useless among evil spirit masters."
There are also differences in skill level among evil spirit masters. For example, a martial spirit that does not possess the mindset of a spirit master is considered a high-level evil martial spirit.
Moreover, quasi-gods like the Underworld Emperor and the Ghost Emperor have long since passed the primitive accumulation stage of slaughter, and slaughter no longer has any effect on their cultivation. The Underworld Emperor's hunting of sea spirit beasts and the Ghost Emperor's plan to bombard Shrek Academy during this period were entirely for the construction of the Blood River God-Slaying Array.
"I am acting in accordance with the will of the Sea God; why should I explain myself to you?"
"Ninth Soul Skill, Demon Hell!"
Bloodstains spread across her orange-gold ninth soul ring, brewing a world-shaking attack. The aftershocks alone carved out a domain unique to her in the underworld.
At the same time, within the Myriad Soul Banner, the ten strongest souls, led by Yun Ming, serve as the main souls, and purple energy flows from the east!
"A quasi-god carrying a divine artifact is quite something." Qian Gu Xing Ci faced the attack of the Wan Hun Ban head-on. The Panlong Staff swelled in the wind, and a dragon head grew from one end, transforming into the shape of the Evil-Slaying Dragon, holding a golden dragon pillar in its mouth.
