Chapter 204 Tangible and Substantial Spiritual Power
"So you gave away all your Scales of Destruction?" The God of Life nestled into its arms naturally and murmured softly, "I just tried it too. He has a good affinity with the power of the God of Life. If he walks the path of the Dragon God and adds our inheritance, that would be three god positions, and all of them would be at the level of law enforcers on our side. Can he handle it?"
Will those guys allow it?
"I will provide him with appropriate assistance within the rules," the God of Destruction said, pulling his wife closer. "As for what you mentioned—"
In the warm embrace, the God of Destruction slightly raised his head, his long and majestic purple pupils seemingly piercing through the magnificent seven-colored clouds and endless time and space of the divine realm, seeing a corner where countless possibilities of the future intertwined.
"His current fortune, amplified by various powerful forces, is as blazing as the sun in the sky. Perhaps this seemingly trivial matter will turn out to be a blessing in disguise?"
Within the Battle Spirit Zone.
The profound and fulfilling feeling of the soul returning to its rightful place is like suddenly breaking through the surface of a bottomless ocean and embracing the air and light anew.
The concept of time seemed distorted in the gap between the divine realm and the mortal world. Only a fleeting moment had passed in the outside world, and Xuanzi seemed not yet fully recovered from the shock.
-
The emptiness in Kong Tianxu's eyes receded rapidly like the tide. His body swayed almost imperceptibly, then he steadied himself, his eyes regaining their brilliance, deep and restrained, even more so than before.
The destructive rune on his forehead completely disappeared, with only a fleeting glimmer of purple-gold divine light deep within his eyes.
He seemed to have only lost his focus briefly due to exhaustion; no one could see the difference between heaven and earth, between the divine and the mortal, that he experienced in that instant.
Both Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe could clearly sense that this young man was different, but they couldn't quite put their finger on what the change was.
But Wang Dong knew. She finally understood where the thing that had always attracted her to Kong Tianxu came from.
That fleeting aura was exactly the same as what his father left behind in his "memory".
Will he know about his father's affairs?
Wang Dong's eyelashes trembled slightly, her two small hands clenched tightly, her heart filled with hesitation.
Kong Tianxu took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart. Ignoring the stunned Xuanzi, he said to Yan Shaozhe, "Dean Yan, let's end this exchange here. I have gained a lot. I will go back and study and digest it first. When I am ready, I will come to fulfill our agreement and enter the Golden Tree to study."
After saying that, without waiting for Yan Shaozhe's response, he nodded slightly, then turned around decisively and walked off the field.
With steady steps and an upright posture, Kong Tianxu walked alone across the battlefield that he had just conquered single-handedly.
Along the way, he didn't even wait for Zhang Lexuan and Meng Hongchen, who were chasing after him from both sides with concerned expressions. His figure quickly disappeared into the tree-lined path leading to Poseidon Island.
The latter quickly caught up, and Zhang Lexuan hesitated for a long time, but ultimately failed to take that step.
Xuanzi slowly came to his senses, and the memories from before clearly surfaced in his mind again and again.
That aura was definitely a power that surpassed the Limit Douluo level, and above the Limit Douluo level, there was only the legendary—
..
God.
Hopefully it wasn't what he thought, he sighed deeply: "Destruction attribute, Purple Radiance Annihilates the Heavenly Dragon, so that's how it is. Elder Mu was truly farsighted. Now, do you have any further objections to that matter?"
He was still immersed in emotion and lingering fear. After a while, he found that no one around him answered.
A strange look appeared on Old Song's face. After a slight hesitation, he finally whispered a reminder: "Elder Xuan, your eyes—"
Upon hearing this, Xuanzi was slightly taken aback and subconsciously raised his hand to wipe his eyes.
When you touch it with your fingertips, it feels cool and damp.
Such powerful destructive properties!
Yan Shaozhe and Old Song exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
Just a single glance with Kong Tianxu had stirred this level 98 Super Douluo to tears without him even realizing it.
But at this moment, someone else is crying even more bitterly than him.
"Wow, Senior Brother, don't die!"
After a moment of deathly silence, the arena gradually began to hum again, and Du Weiren officially announced the end of the sparring exchange.
The Shrek Academy students, who had been shut out, were all dejected. Meanwhile, many inner court disciples formed a circle in the Soul Fighting Area, and Lin Li cried his heart out next to Jin Yehuan's imposing figure.
On the other side, Elder Zhuang, who had already arrived, pressed his hands down towards Jin Yehuan. Countless lush green vines surged from his hands and quickly attached themselves to Jin Yehuan.
Nine spirit rings rose one by one from beneath his feet, swirling around his body. The first, fourth, and sixth spirit rings shone first, and a soft green light began to flow into Jin Yehuan's body.
After listening to Lin Li's continuous wailing, this rare healing-type Super Douluo finally couldn't bear it anymore. He got up and kicked him away. As he did so, Jin Yehuan slowly opened his eyes.
Lin Li wasn't annoyed at all. Seeing that Jin Yehuan had woken up, he quickly scrambled back and carefully helped her up.
Although Elder Zhuang was the second strongest healer in the world, and Jin Yehuan had the double barrier of the Thick Earth Armor and the Heaven and Earth Overturning, the power of the Purple Radiance Annihilation Dragon Thunder was terrifying. His blood and soul power were almost completely burned away.
Even after treatment, he no longer had the strength to stand up on his own, and he had shrunk considerably.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhuang, for your help."
Even in this state, Jin Yehuan still insisted on thanking Elder Zhuang. After Elder Zhuang left, he looked around at his familiar junior brothers and sisters, smiled wryly, and said, "I'm sorry everyone, I'm not as skilled as you, and I've brought shame to the academy."
Despite the countless grievances in their hearts, who could bear to criticize Jin Yehuan when he was on his deathbed?
Moreover, no one could possibly do better than him.
Before anyone could offer words of comfort, Jin Yehuan raised his hand to stop them. He looked weakly at Zhang Lexuan, his smile filled with bitterness: "My wish has been fulfilled, though not perfectly. But it's time for my inner academy career to come to an end. After I graduate, Lexuan, you will take over as the chief disciple. From now on, you will be the senior sister. I'm sure that under your leadership, the inner academy will prosper even more."
As he spoke, his heart was still throbbing with a dull pain. His original plan was to defeat Kong Tianxu cleanly and decisively in front of everyone, and then, amidst cheers and witnesses, confess his feelings that had been buried for so many years to Le Xuan!
Seeing that Zhang Lexuan's face had turned red with anger after being angered by Kong Tianxu, Jin Yehuan secretly thought that this might be the best opportunity that fate had given him.
No one objected, and Zhang Lexuan, after a slight show of modesty, agreed, as this was something that had been agreed upon long ago.
But at this solemn moment of transition between the old and the new, a pair of students from the outer academy who were talking passed by at a distance, and their conversation reached everyone's ears.
"Feeding the sandbags! This match was truly exciting! It turns out that 100,000-year spirit rings really do exist in the world. Although we lost, we didn't expect there to be an eight-ring Spirit Douluo-level senior! Do you think there might be a Title Douluo-level senior who didn't participate?"
"You're overthinking it. Senior Jin, who appeared last, is already the strongest chief disciple in the inner academy. I heard that the seniors in the inner academy all call him Senior Brother."
"The strongest in the inner courtyard? Senior Brother? Does that mean we'll have to call that Kong Tianxu Senior Brother from now on?"
"Uh—" The outer disciple named Jinsha, nicknamed Sandbag, was stunned.
The inner court disciples standing together were also stunned. Zhang Lexuan's expression was strange. Jin Yehuan looked around and realized that many people seemed to have similar hesitation on their faces.
Make him call a senior exchange student from the Sun Moon Empire "senior brother," a title that is considered sacred in the inner court.
I don't want that kind of thing!
Kong Tianxu kept the outside world's disturbances and the undercurrents within the inner courtyard isolated from his quiet room.
Sitting cross-legged, and waiting for Xue Di to quietly isolate the energy flow before snuggling into his arms, Kong Tianxu first took out the two divine items he had obtained from this journey to the divine realm.
A series of flashes of cyan and purple light appeared, and the Scale of Destruction emerged directly from Kong Tianxu's chest, while the Blade of Judgment of Life flowed before his eyes like a pool of clear water.
The moment they appeared, Xue Di was initially intoxicated by the life force of the Blade of Judgment of Life, but upon seeing the Scales of Destruction, she subconsciously shrank back.
With a thought, Kong Tianxu felt a milky white light slowly swirling around the Blade of Judgment of Life. This was the purest soul power that had not been fused with the martial soul.
Immediately afterwards, under his control, the pure white soul power light split into two streams, one of which gently touched the Blade of Judgment of Life.
In an instant, the originally pure soul power seemed to have changed, and a faint yellow layer appeared on its pure white surface, as if it had been left untouched for tens of thousands of years, forming a stark contrast with the soul power that had not touched the Blade of Judgment of Living Beings.
Blade of Judgment of Living Beings, a divine artifact. Its characteristic is judgment, which can strip any inanimate object or energy of its life force and replenish the Soul Master himself.
There is life force in all things in the universe, and even the most evil things will not refuse the nourishment of life force.
After being blessed by the God of Life, the Blade of Judgment, which has evolved into a divine artifact, still cannot be used on the physical body of living beings, but it is now indestructible in all other ways, including the soul.
Great, adding the Golden Dragon Spear makes it a perfect combination.
The Blade of Judgment of Life transformed back into the Rib of Life. Kong Tianxu gently stroked the Scale of Destruction, which naturally attracted the Silver Dragon Martial Soul, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
The Scale of Destruction—clearly, this is a dragon scale, and among the dragons, only the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon Clan possesses sufficiently powerful destructive force.
So, was this left behind by a powerful Purple Emperor Sky-Destroying Dragon, or was it simply the ancestor of the sub-dragons born from the Dragon God?
The feelings that troubled Kong Tianxu and his Silver Dragon Martial Soul towards this Scale of Destruction were understandable. But why did it give him an attraction that was almost like a loss of his very essence?
Similarly, the attitude of the God of Destruction is also intriguing. It clearly guides Kong Tianxu, but refuses to speak human language, as if it has some reservations.
Never mind, things will work out in the end. Kong Tianxu temporarily put these thoughts aside and took out what he had been looking forward to for a long time.
A subtle emotional fluctuation emanated from him, the Mermaid's Tears shimmered with light, and a golden halo illuminated Kong Tianxu's serene face, filling the room with a powerful and pure spiritual aura.
Moon, I hope you don't sleep too soundly then.
The retreat has officially begun.
The exchange and competition led by Yan Shaozhe has almost completely exceeded his expectations.
After that shocking defeat in the gauntlet battle that stunned both the inner and outer academies, Shrek Academy unleashed an unprecedented wave of cultivation frenzy.
Even Huo Yuhao gave up the idea of hiding his strength and lying low at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
After all, there was a monster like Kong Tianxu, standing like an insurmountable peak at the top of his peers. Especially after the almost overwhelming power Kong Tianxu displayed during their sparring, Huo Yuhao understood that even if he stopped hiding any of his trump cards and showed his true strength, under Kong Tianxu's exaggerated brilliance, it would probably be no different from hiding his abilities.
But everyone knew that all they were doing might ultimately only shorten the gap between them and Kong Tianxu by a tiny bit. Even so, burying themselves in cultivation seemed to be the only way they could numb themselves.
However, no one, including Kong Tianxu himself, expected that his seclusion this time would last so long.
A month has passed. Meng Hongchen has come, Yan Shaozhe has come, Xuanzi has come, and even Wang Dong has come and seen it.
But his breathing remained steady, and the door remained closed.
According to the Snow Maiden who had been guarding the door, Kong Tianxu had fallen into deep meditation.
Zhang Lexuan came the most.
Perhaps it was because she lived too close that the Sea God Pavilion instructed her to come and find out about Kong Tianxu's situation, or perhaps it was just her own idea to come. Even after Meng Hongchen reduced the frequency of her visits, she still frequently appeared in front of Kong Tianxu's door.
Sometimes, she would just stand quietly outside the door for a while and then leave; other times, she would lean against Kong Tianxu's door and, in a secluded place under the moonlight, confide her girlish thoughts.
Time slips away quietly in this deep seclusion and silent vigil.
"It's been half a year, aren't you going to come out yet?" Once again, Zhang Lexuan stood alone outside the door, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of resentment, but her words were slightly cheerful: "I don't know who spread the word, but now many people call you Senior Brother and think that you are the real Chief of the Inner Court. I'm in a very awkward position as Senior Sister."
"But I doubt you'd want to be called that, after all—"
"After all what?"
A calm and familiar voice, with a hint of a smile, rang out from behind her without warning.
Zhang Lexuan's words came to an abrupt halt, and her body stiffened slightly.
The door to the quiet room, which had been silent for half a year, had quietly and slowly opened inwards.
Kong Tianxu stepped out, his aura harmonious and restrained, no longer displaying the sharp edge he had shown after the earth-shattering battle half a year ago. Instead, he exuded a calmness as if returning to simplicity.
Only her deep eyes had become more lustrous, and when they opened and closed, they held an ethereal quality that was more pronounced than before.
His soul power had firmly reached the threshold of level 66, and his spiritual power, nurtured by the boundless power of the Mermaid's Tears and tempered by the invisible trials of his journey to the God Realm, had reached the level of the number one human soul master in the world.
Kong Tianxu smiled slightly. Zhang Lexuan looked at the face she had been longing for day and night, and her beautiful eyes stung slightly. Like a swallow throwing itself into his arms, she rushed into his open arms.
He held her soft, warm body in his arms, the familiar, faint fragrance lingering around his nose. Kong Tianxu gently embraced the slightly trembling body in his arms and patted her back reassuringly.
His gaze drifted towards the Sea God Pavilion not far away.
His eyes narrowed slightly, and a sharp, expectant glint flashed in the depths of Kong Tianxu's eyes.
He's going to catch an old dragon.
