Chapter 305: Rank 98 Titled Douluo
After hearing Yang Xiong's words, everyone sat on the body of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King and began their cultivation. The other two Deep Sea Magic Whales circled around them. Yang Xiong also began organizing the spoils from this encounter near the body of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King.
Having absorbed the million-year soul ring and soul bone of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King, Yang Xiong's strength received a massive boost. His soul power level had already reached level 98.
It's important to note that when Yang Xiong left Sea God Island, he had already reached level 92, but he had not absorbed any more soul rings at that time. Afterward, he had absorbed the soul bones of the Ice Dragon King and Fire Dragon King.
With the absorption of the million-year soul ring and soul bone, his physical strength was greatly enhanced. Due to the sacrifice of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King, the whale's torso soul bone and entire body fused perfectly, and the previously missing torso bones were now fully developed, forming a perfect suit of armor.
Especially the three external soul bones, which all reached the 100,000-year level, with the Ice and Fire Dragon Claws reaching the same level. These claws not only had the ultimate ice and fire properties but were also incredibly sharp, comparable to divine artifacts.
The Xuanming Armor, after enduring the Heavenly Tribulation, had finally undergone a transformation, resembling the ancestral evolution of a turtle-type soul beast into the Xuanwu Armor. Its defense had reached an unimaginable level.
Under the blood-red lightning of the world's rule, Yang Xiong seemed to have gone through another body tempering process. His body was repeatedly destroyed and then restored, as though going through thousands of hammerings, reaching a new level. Even his martial soul had entered a new stage.
Now, Yang Xiong felt that with just his body, he had reached the peak of this world. He could already surpass the limit of an Extreme Douluo.
His domain had also undergone a change. His original Killing Field, after being tempered by the Heavenly Tribulation and with the addition of the million-year soul ring, had evolved into a true god-level domain—transforming from the Killing Field into the Asura Field.
The most critical ninth soul ring provided him with eight soul skills, each with astonishing power, each one a rare million-year soul skill.
Ninth soul ring skill one: Magic Whale Gaze, a mental domain skill. When activated, enemies are trapped and wrapped by water elements, restricting their mental power as if they were in the deep sea.
Ninth soul ring skill two: Thunder War Spear, when activated, a hundred-meter-long war spear is formed to attack enemies. It has the ultimate water and lightning attributes, can lock onto enemies with mental power, and trigger powerful lightning explosions.
Ninth soul ring skill three: Asura Thunder Destruction, this soul skill summons terrifying heavenly thunder that can destroy heaven and earth.
Ninth soul ring skill four: Magic Whale Furious Dragon Transformation, an extreme amplification soul skill. After using this skill, it's as though the million-year Magic Whale Furious Dragon possesses the user, drastically enhancing their strength and defense, resembling a god.
Torso soul bone skill one: Whale Emperor's Protection, which creates a purple armor around the body, providing absolute defense.
Torso soul bone skill two: Boundless Ocean, when used, this skill draws upon the power of the ocean to battle enemies, using water elements to trap them.
Torso soul bone skill three: Magic Whale Raging Waves Slash, an extreme single-target attack skill, combining water and lightning attributes, capable of breaking through all defenses.
Torso soul bone skill four: Magic Whale Mirror's Annihilation, a defense and control skill. When used, all surrounding energy is converted into deep blue crystals, capable of withstanding and reflecting all energy attacks. The enemy is trapped in a mirror world where their vision and mental power are completely obstructed.
Yang Xiong carefully observed these eight soul skills and couldn't help but marvel at their immense power. No wonder they were million-year soul ring skills.
From these eight soul skills, not only did he possess mental attack and control skills, but there were also extreme amplification skills, as well as absolute water and lightning attribute offensive skills. It was all-encompassing, and each skill had a unique effect.
With these eight million-year soul skills alone, he could easily battle against Extreme Douluo. In fact, if used to their full potential, these skills might even allow him to challenge gods.
When Yang Xiong returned to his spiritual sea, the original blood-red spiritual sea had undergone massive changes.
In addition to the original golden giant, there was now a giant Deep Sea Magic Whale, surrounded by countless blood-red lightning bolts.
The Deep Sea Magic Whale King had transformed into the form of a middle-aged man, appearing gentler than before.
"Yang Xiong, I've just transformed into a million-year soul beast and didn't fully understand the traits of such a beast, which led to some mistakes," the Deep Sea Magic Whale King said.
Yang Xiong was confused. "Is there a problem? I feel like my strength has greatly increased, and I could even fight against gods now."
The Deep Sea Magic Whale King nodded. "With your current physical strength and soul ring configuration, you could barely reach the level of a god. Unfortunately, I made a miscalculation."
"Normally, when a million-year soul beast sacrifices itself, in addition to the soul power and soul ring abilities, it can also give you a soul without attributes."
"Unfortunately, during the Heavenly Tribulation, I didn't have time to think about it. Coupled with my extreme lightning attribute, the Heavenly Tribulation actually entered your body and soul, which is why the second round was destroyed."
"However, the opposite occurred. The Heavenly Tribulation entered where your second martial soul would have been, and now you possess the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, which is the blood-red energy in your spiritual sea. But this energy can only attach to you and cannot be absorbed as a soul ring."
Upon hearing this, Yang Xiong carefully felt the changes in his martial soul. The Asura martial soul, which had once been blood-red, was now surrounded by blood-red lightning, carrying terrifying destructive power, as though it had inherent power from birth.
Although Yang Xiong had previously mastered lightning energy, it was nowhere near the strength of the Heavenly Tribulation's power.
Now, the Heavenly Tribulation energy attached to his Asura martial soul seemed to surpass the ultimate lightning power, capable of unprecedented destruction. It was as if it embodied the very rules of the world, capable of breaking anything in its path.
Yang Xiong felt that by mastering the Heavenly Tribulation power, it was as if he had control over the rules of the world. Everything in the world seemed insignificant, as though it could be crushed under his will.
"Thank you, senior. I'm very pleased with this Heavenly Tribulation power. Compared to the so-called second martial soul, I prefer using my own strength to resolve everything. I prefer to make my body even stronger."
The Deep Sea Magic Whale King nodded. "Having dual martial souls certainly has some benefits, but switching between them is still an issue, not to mention the rejection between them."
"This Heavenly Tribulation is like your second martial soul. Although you can't obtain soul rings, it has fused with your martial soul and body. It's even better than a second martial soul, considering you no longer lack soul skills or abilities."
Yang Xiong carefully observed the Heavenly Tribulation power he now controlled. It was as if he had gone through the Heavenly Tribulation himself. His connection with the rules of Douluo Star had grown stronger, and he had become more familiar with the world's rules.
After thinking for a long time, Yang Xiong spoke. "Senior, what do you plan to do now? Should your wife and daughter return to the Body Sect with me?"
The Deep Sea Magic Whale King thought for a moment and then replied, "Yang Xiong, I've spent my whole life striving for the Sea God position. I would like to meet the Sea God."
"As for my wife and daughter, let them follow your arrangements. But given how chaotic the world is now, I'd rather they stay in the deep sea for the time being. It may be safer there. Once you become a god, I'll make other arrangements for them, and perhaps we can reunite as a family once you've ascended."
Yang Xiong nodded. "Alright. Your wife's strength is no less than yours. Even in the deep sea, not even a god could easily deal with her."
"I also have matters to attend to at Sea God Island, so it's convenient for us to take care of this together."
Time passed quickly, and soon, three full days had gone by.
After some communication with the Deep Sea Magic Whale King, the mother and daughter reluctantly left and returned to the deep sea.
Of course, Yang Xiong specifically reminded them not to reveal themselves to the world before he ascended to godhood, as it could attract the attention of others.
The massive body of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King emitted strong divine power, attracting numerous sea soul beasts, but they were all intimidated by Yang Xiong and left.
Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong and the others were diligently cultivating around the Deep Sea Magic Whale King's corpse. The area now seemed like an ocean of divine power, and each of them was rapidly absorbing divine power, with their soul power increasing at an astonishing rate.
In just three days, each of them had made significant progress, with most of them increasing by two soul power levels.
Ning Rongrong finally reached level 90. After absorbing the divine soul ring in her spiritual sea, her soul power reached level 91, making her the second Titled Douluo in Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's history and the true number one support soul master on the continent.
Oscar reached level 89, just a step away from becoming a Titled Douluo. He was confident that he would become the first food system Titled Douluo in history.
Yang Wei reached level 88, Shui Bing'er reached level 84, Huo Wu reached level 83, and Feng Xiaotian reached level 89.
Qin Shuang also reached level 81.
Yang Xiong looked at the massive body of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King. He only took the whale pearl and whale gel, not paying attention to anything else.
As the Deep Sea Magic Whale King had lived his life in the ocean, now that he was dead, his body would return to the sea, repaying the ocean that nurtured him.
Yang Xiong knew very well that the whale pearl was comparable to the Sea God's Heart, and the whale gel was an extremely rare treasure.
Given the size of the Deep Sea Magic Whale King, the whale gel alone weighed over a thousand pounds. If kept in the Body Sect, it could be used to cultivate countless experts.
