Douluo Dragon King: Doumu's Blessing, I Am the Star Lord

"You've reached the fourth ring. It seems your blacksmith level will need to be raised again."

Looking at Qian Gu Xing Ci, Zhen Hua sighed with emotion: "It's too exaggerated that a martial soul can open one's innate meridians on its own. Even with the slow cultivation speed of the ultimate attributes, his level far surpasses that of other geniuses of his generation."

Speaking of this, Mu Ye's eyes lit up: "Xing Ci's innate secret technique has also reached the minor completion stage. Now we can start preparing for the second awakening of her main body martial soul."

Mu Ye couldn't help but look forward to the level he would reach after his martial soul, which possessed the innate domain, underwent its second awakening.

The second awakening of the main body's martial soul is divided into four levels: black iron, bronze, silver, and gold.

A second awakening at the Gold level has never occurred; the Gold-level awakening used by the original sect master was actually a third awakening.

I wonder if Xingci can achieve that legendary feat.

Zhenhua immediately nodded and said decisively, "Focus on martial spirit cultivation first, we can talk about forging later."

He knew perfectly well that he had relied on a massive amount of rare and precious materials to force himself to become a Title Douluo, and his combat strength was far inferior to that of a normal expert of the same level, making him a "fake".

However, Qian Gu Xing Ci is completely different. He has top-notch foundation and talent, but he still needs to focus on martial spirit cultivation.

Soul forging and Heaven forging already have clear and strict requirements for the Soul Master's level, so there's no need to rush to improve the Blacksmith's level.

Qian Gu Xing Ci strode up to A Ru Heng, raised his hand and flicked it. A storage soul tool flashed with a faint light, and a soul bone, gilded all over and as heavy as divine iron, floated quietly in his palm.

That is the right arm bone of the 100,000-year-old Golden Crocodile King.

The bone was pure imperial gold, with a layer of fine, scale-like patterns naturally flowing across its surface. Bone spikes protruded, as if cast from gold or solidified from molten lava, with a faint, dark golden sheen at the edges. The entire arm bone was sharply defined and imposing, exuding the domineering aura of a savage beast. Just its presence caused the surrounding air to stagnate slightly, and the immense power of its flesh seemed to overflow.

The ancient star's words are introduced softly:

"Senior brother, this is the right arm bone of a 100,000-year-old golden crocodile king. It's perfect for you."

Most of the original spirits do not have an attribute bias, and the choice of spirit bones is already broad, as long as the spirit beast's physical strength or mental power is strong enough.

In the Douluo Continent, gold-type soul beasts have always been among the best in terms of physical strength.

Upon seeing the aura of the soul bone, Aruheng quickly waved his hand, looking both honest and flustered:

"Junior brother, this is too precious, I can't accept it!"

Without a word, Qian Gu Xing Ci stepped forward and forcefully stuffed the soul bone into Aru Heng's arms.

Seeing Qian Gu Xing Ci looking over, Mu Ye immediately understood and said in a deep voice to his eldest disciple:

"Ruheng, this is a token of your junior brother's goodwill. Please accept it."

Aruheng then solemnly put away the Golden Crocodile King's right arm bone, his eyes welling up with tears of excitement.

He stepped forward, opened his thick, tree-trunk-like arms, and gave Qian Gu Xing Ci a tight hug.

But when the image appeared, it was rather jarring.

A burly, bald, towering man tightly embraced the handsome and gentle-looking Qian Gu Xing Ci.

In people's hearts, Sichuan is a Tang Dynasty city!

There is no damage between shields, but every shot from a gun is a critical hit.

The matter of the two sect leaders of the Tang Clan...

I dare not speak loudly, lest I startle the heavenly beings!

Only then did Aruheng release Qian Gu Xing Ci.

When Qian Gu Xing Ci was hugged by his towering body, he felt dizzy. An ordinary soul master would probably have been walking for a while by now.

Mu Ye chuckled and patted his shoulder: "My disciple, it's time for us to get ready for some special training."

Qian Gu Xing Ci was taken aback: "Master, what kind of training?"

"Your foundation is far stronger than your senior's back then, so I'll take you to the deep sea for special training."

Qian Gu Xing Ci was speechless: "Master, I come from Donghai City."

Mu Ye laughed and said, "The East Sea is not suitable. It is the instinct of living beings to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune. There are many ships in the East Sea and frequent Federation patrols. Just like the Star Dou Great Forest back then, it has been almost cleared out. There are not many soul beasts with suitable strength."

Qian Gu Xing Ci's heart skipped a beat, and he wished he could shut Mu Ye up immediately.

He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw that Gu Yue's face had darkened.

Makino continued talking: "So, the place we're going to is Beihai."

After saying that, he grabbed Qian Gu Xing Ci's arm and was about to leave immediately, while turning back to look at Gu Yue and Na'er: "You two little girls, do you want to go and broaden your horizons?"

Gu Yue and Na'er exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.

Mu Ye said no more. The group went to the backyard, where a magnificent, god-level mecha suddenly appeared. He led Qian Gu Xing Ci, Gu Yue, and Na'er onto the mecha, which soared into the sky and disappeared into the distance in an instant.

Zhenhua and Aruheng stood at the door, watching the disappearing figure.

Zhenhua said calmly, "Ruheng, go back and absorb the soul bone."

Aruheng nodded emphatically, then turned and left.

In this day and age, the position of god-level mechs is actually quite awkward.

Battle armor is the true pinnacle of power. The ultimate pursuit of most strong individuals is a suit of battle armor, not a mecha.

Qian Gu Xing Ci and Na'er were already used to this; it wasn't the first time they had witnessed a god-level mecha.

But Gu Yue was experiencing another peak of human technology for the first time.

Standing inside the mecha, feeling the power emanating from this steel creation, her heart sank slightly.

They gradually came to understand why the once dominant spirit beasts had fallen into a disadvantageous position in their long battles with humans.

Human creativity is truly terrifying.

Against the typhoon!

My life has been like walking on thin ice. Do you think I can ever reach the other side?

A dark red streak of light pierced the airspace over the North Sea, passing directly over the North Sea naval corps' base without any attempt to conceal its presence.

High up in the military camp, an elderly man surnamed Shen, dressed in a dark blue general's uniform, squinted at the figure. After recognizing the type of mecha, his lips twitched. "It's that cook from Muye... What kind of extreme training has he been doing in the sea again?"

"Xiaoyue, don't worry about him. That guy was just passing by and meant no harm."

"Yes," said the woman in military uniform.

The woman was Shen Yue, the commander of the Beihai Navy regiment.

Although the Body Sect is now in decline, their training philosophy of pushing the limits of the human body is still deeply ingrained in people's minds.

As for why Shen Yue reacted this way...

There's no other reason than that Shrek Academy students often cause trouble on Devil Island. With even god-level mechs coming, Shen Yue is genuinely afraid that Shrek Academy will give them a big surprise.

In short, Shrek put stress on the child!

Chapter 25: Yearning for Freedom, Simple and Unadorned Techniques, Still Inheriting the Dregs (4K)

Upon reaching the uninhabited waters deep in the North Sea, Qian Gu Xing Ci stood at the hatch and met Mu Ye's incredibly firm and encouraging gaze.

Do you yearn for freedom?

Qian Gu Xing Ci took a deep breath and performed an unprotected parachute jump.

Without an umbrella!

Makino added a little something extra to his diet, and an invisible force pushed him deeper into the sea.

"Bam—!"

A muffled, loud bang was heard, and water sprayed dozens of meters high.

Makino immediately swooped down, a bottle of dark red viscous liquid in his hand, which he poured into the sea without hesitation.

Na'er blinked and curiously leaned forward: "Uncle Mu, what are you pouring?"

Makino remained calm: "The blood of a ten-thousand-year-old deep-sea demon whale."

The depths of the North Sea were shrouded in darkness, the black seawater like solidified ink. Qian Gu Xing Ci's brows lit up slightly, and he immediately released the Star Pivot Dao Meridian Martial Soul. Starlight flowed in his eyes, and the dark deep sea was instantly illuminated with a clear radiance, restoring his vision.

Before he could regain his footing, a huge shadow suddenly rushed straight down from above!

Sharp fins sliced ​​through the deep-sea currents, and as the distance closed, the figure was fully revealed—

Demon Soul Great White Shark!

There were three of them!

Qian Gu Xing Ci's eyes narrowed, and four dark and deep soul rings instantly appeared beneath his feet, slowly pulsating.

War is imminent.

Three demonic great white sharks were drawn by the blood of a ten-thousand-year-old deep-sea demon whale. Their eyes turned blood red, and their massive bodies moved nimbly through the deep sea. Wherever their tail fins swept, they stirred up surging undercurrents, causing the seawater to churn violently.

The leader was the most robust, with a body length of over ten meters and a dorsal fin as sharp as a blade, gleaming with a cold, icy light.

Qian Gu Xing Ci's eyes narrowed, and his first and second soul rings simultaneously became dazzling. The power amplified by the twin stars, Tian Shu and Tian Xuan, erupted instantly.

The ancient star did not flinch or evade; pale blue starlight and dark gold blood energy gently swirled around his jade-like palm, his five fingers outstretched.

Combat Technique: Overwhelming the Seas!

His palm strike was as deep as an abyss, clashing fiercely with the demonic great white shark that was directly in front of him.

"Boom—!" A muffled, loud noise exploded in the deep sea, and the huge impact created a whirlpool tens of meters high.

Qian Gu Xing Ci swayed, his fists trembling slightly.

The lead demonic great white shark, however, merely turned its head slightly and was instantly enraged, its eyes turning crimson as it charged forward, its sharp fangs gleaming coldly in the darkness.

These marine beneficial beasts are terrifying!

The other two great white sharks seized the opportunity to launch a simultaneous attack, with the one on the left sweeping its tail fin across and the one on the right flanking from behind.

The lead great white shark roared, its blue light surging from its brow, as countless shark-tooth-shaped energy blades coalesced.

Innate Soul Skill: Demon Shark Fang!

Dozens of energy blades shot towards him in a dense barrage. Qian Gu Xing Ci tried his best to defend himself. Although he managed to block most of the attacks, he was still grazed by a few energy blades, leaving shallow bloodstains on his arm.

Above, the god-level mecha Little Red hovered silently beneath the sea surface, its energy barrier quietly unfolding to seal off the entire sea area. This not only prevented accidents but also clearly transmitted the battle below back into the mecha, acting as the eyes of the three.

Na'er looked a little nervous and couldn't help but ask:
