"Come."
Xuan Lao took a few steps forward.
"Mm."
An Zhen stood firmly on the ground, then threw a punch.
"Bang!"
A dull thud of flesh colliding rang out.
An Zhen felt as if he had punched cotton; all his strength was absorbed in an instant.
"Xuan Lao?"
Xuan Lao shook his head slightly, saying with a surprised yet somewhat dissatisfied tone, "Over thirty thousand kilograms, An Xiaozi, get your blood and qi flowing."
Xu Jiujiu:?
Thirty tons?
Is this the power a Spirit Ancestor can unleash?
Even thousands of years old Spirit Beasts would be considered to have powerful bloodlines to possess such explosive force. And this wasn't even An Zhen's limit.
"Okay."
An Zhen nodded lightly.
He withdrew his fist.
An Zhen's mental force enveloped his entire body. "Thump, thump, thump—" His heartbeat resonated like the low roar of a giant beast. A flush appeared on the youth's skin, and his previously calm blood and qi began to surge.
"Boom, boom—"
The sound of air being torn apart rang out.
An Zhen's fair fist left afterimages in the air. A look of surprise flashed in Xuan Lao's clear eyes, which belied his appearance. A yellowish-brown spiritual light enveloped one of his palms, precisely catching An Zhen's fist.
"Good boy!"
His old bones couldn't withstand that without spirit power.
Xuan Lao announced a number that Xu Jiujiu found almost unbelievable: "Over eighty thousand kilograms."
"Not enough yet."
An Zhen shook his head, a little dissatisfied.
Without a special mental technique, simply using mental control over his blood and qi like this couldn't effectively mobilize the qi and blood power of his entire body. He was a pure-blooded human, and his Spirit was not a Beast Spirit, unlike the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, who possessed dragon blood.
However, unlike the amplification of the Golden Dragon King, if it was just about purely mobilizing all his strength, An Zhen knew of a Spirit that was very suitable.
Yellow, yellow, purple, orange, gold—four spirit rings rose.
First Soul Skill, Reflection, body martial soul.
Poison Undying's Spirit.
Spirit possession.
A strange fluctuation spread throughout An Zhen's body. An unprecedented sense of control over his body entered An Zhen's brain. While it wasn't to the point of perfectly controlling every inch of muscle, there was a feeling that every part could be used like a pair of hands.
"body martial soul?"
Xuan Lao felt a hint of familiarity with the spirit power fluctuation emanating from An Zhen. When did this kid secretly copy Poison Undying's Spirit?
"Gurgle, gurgle~"
The sound of boiling blood and qi rang out. Wisps of blood energy swirled around An Zhen. Pure crimson climbed to the ends of his hair. As his heartbeat resounded like thunderous drums, it was as if a thousand armies were galloping. A thick qi and blood force emerged, like a humanoid ferocious beast. The sound of his boiling and surging qi and blood even caused Xu Jiujiu's own qi and blood to become somewhat chaotic.
"Bang!"
It was as heavy as muffled thunder.
The crimson fluctuation caused the air itself to tremble.
In Xu Jiujiu's sight, An Zhen transformed directly into a blood-black light that crashed straight into Xuan Lao. The air current generated by the collision stirred up a gust of wind. The choking, bloody aura forced Xu Jiujiu to activate her spirit power defense.
"This is going to break my old bones."
A streak of blood-red light cut through the dust stirred up by the collision. In Xu Jiujiu's astonished gaze, she saw nine spirit rings appear on the white-haired old man. An Zhen's strength had forced a Limit Douluo to reveal his Spirit?
"Hoo~"
An Zhen exhaled, activating his Spirit to calm his surging blood and qi. The youth looked at Xuan Lao with some excitement, "Xuan Lao, how much was that strike?"
"About one hundred and thirty thousand kilograms."
Xu Jiujiu somewhat doubted if her hearing was malfunctioning.
A strength-type Titled Douluo's basic punch with Spirit possession was only one hundred thousand kilograms.
Of course, this didn't mean An Zhen could now stand shoulder to shoulder with a Titled Douluo. After all, Titled Douluo had Spirit Abilities, and no one in battle would only use basic attacks; at most, they'd use them during warm-ups. But with such punching power, An Zhen was currently only a Spirit Ancestor.
The Star Crown Princess's surprised expression was quickly replaced by joy. An Zhen was now her fiancé; they were one. For her, the stronger An Zhen was, the better.
As expected of her man.
"That's probably enough."
An Zhen nodded lightly. It was a bit more than Tang Wulin, but the latter relied on the Golden Dragon King's seal, while he relied on the passive Spirit Bone, which was limited by his soul. Tang Wulin was just beginning to grow at that time, and now his soul was already very powerful. But An Zhen felt that his current strength still had considerable room for growth before reaching his soul's current limit.
As for the ultimate limit?
That would depend on later development.
"Enough?!"
Xuan Lao repeated, saying exasperatedly, "You kid are getting more and more monstrous."
Xuan Lao remembered that Old Mu's Descend the World was about attaching mental force to physical attacks. In An Zhen's current situation, with such monstrous strength and mental force, if he couldn't break his defense and An Zhen got close, even a Spirit Douluo would be in deep trouble.
That's not right!
Old Mu had said this kid had a spatial Teleportation Spirit Ability called "Universe."
Good heavens, this weakness has also been filled. Only defense is left, but if he can succeed in one strike, defense becomes useless anyway. Moreover, doesn't An Zhen have a Rank 9 defensive spirit tool, Hongchen Blessing, on him?
"Jiu Jiu."
An Zhen hugged his girlfriend, "Let's go, home."
"Eh?"
What are they going back for in the daytime?
Xu Jiujiu's purple star eyes met a pair of eyes full of aggressive gaze. The girl's cheeks flushed. She knew what they were going back for now.
Such powerful qi and blood, it would be ruined, right?
She was a little scared, but also had an indescribable excitement and anticipation.
...
Black short boots and white socks were casually discarded on the ground. On the messy bed, an extraordinary purple-haired beautiful girl was sleeping. Her pretty little face bore two streaks of tears and an excited smile, and her fair skin was flushed with a blush that had not yet faded.
"A strong body is indeed quite a torment."
An Zhen sighed. Although Xu Jiujiu wasn't his match before, she wasn't defeated so badly. He cleared the scene in the Virtual World.
"Tap, tap, tap..."
A series of footsteps entered An Zhen's greatly enhanced body perception.
Six beautiful girls, each with their own charm, walked into the courtyard. As soon as they pushed open the door, they saw An Zhen already seated in the hall.
An Zhen's gaze fell on Wu Feng among the girls.
Her fiery red long hair cascaded to her waist and hips, like burning dragon flames, with a fiery spiritual light shimmering upon it. Her beautiful, naive face seemed to have gained a touch of maturity and charm. A triangular fiery red scale adorned her brow, which didn't look strange but gave her the majesty of a Fire Dragon. Her golden eyes were like flowing liquid gold, dazzling and extraordinary. Her black coat was bulging, and her long, shapely legs in long boots had the beauty of a mature woman.
"How do you feel?"
"The Fire Dragon King's essence blood has been completely absorbed and refined during this deep meditation. Extreme Fire."
Wu Feng's beautiful face was filled with excitement.
An Zhen took Wu Feng's wrist.
As he expected, Wu Feng was not in Spirit possession state at this moment, yet scales appeared on her brow, and her hair shimmered with fiery spiritual light. Her Life form was still human, but she had gained a trace of the Fire Dragon King's bloodline within her.
Although both possessed extreme attributes, Huo Yutong's Ice Dragon King Spirit was clearly stronger than Wu Feng's Spirit. However, when not in Spirit possession, Huo Yutong did not exhibit obvious dragon or ice elemental characteristics like Wu Feng, because she directly absorbed the Ice Dragon King's Dragon Soul, while Wu Feng refined Dragon Blood.
However, for Wu Feng's situation, besides making her physique stronger, it would not bring any side effects.
There were many cases like Wu Feng's in the Spirit Master's world. For example, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan; some powerful Beast Spirit families basically had Spirit Beast bloodlines within them, but now the bloodline was thin and the characteristics were not obvious.
An Zhen remembered that there was a creature called Dragon Girl on the Douluo Continent. If humans combined with them, they could absorb the Dragon Blood within them to cause a beneficial mutation in their Spirit.
But Wu Feng was different from them.
The former was a human with Dragon Blood, while the latter was half-human, half-beast.
Their Life forms were different.
"Very good."
An Zhen nodded lightly, "Which path did Wu Feng choose?"
"Naturally, I'm following Ning Tian."
Wu Feng said without hesitation, yet the gaze in her golden eyes drifted when meeting An Zhen's eyes.
"Wind Sister missed two words, oh."
Ning Tian said with a smile, hugging Wu Feng's waist.
The girls bought some food and came back. An Zhen talked about some things that happened after he woke up today.
"One hundred and thirty thousand kilograms?!"
The girls were astonished.
They had seen the abnormal phenomena that had appeared on An Ran before, knowing that An Zhen must have gained a lot this time, but they didn't expect such astonishing results.
Gaze after gaze fell on An Zhen, feeling it was incredible. A human body of a Spirit Ancestor actually concealed such powerful strength. Even a humanoid True Dragon couldn't reach this level, right?
Gu Yuena, who was eating, looked up, her purple dragon eyes gazing at An Zhen, then lowered her head and continued eating.
"Where's Xu Jiujiu?"
Wang Donger suddenly asked.
"Sleeping."
An Zhen said.
"Sleeping?"
Wang Donger looked at An Zhen suspiciously, "You didn't exhaust her into unconsciousness, did you?"
Such monstrous physical strength, if it pressed down on her...
"You'll know in a few years."
An Zhen gazed at his girl and said with a smile.
"Hehe, who's afraid of whom!"
Wang Donger retorted defiantly.
At most, she would pull in Huo Yutong then, and if that didn't work, she would pull in Xiao Xiao. In any case, she would never surrender to this bad guy.
"Hmm."
Ning Tian's cheeks were slightly red.
Zhang Lexuan wasn't here, so tonight was her time.
An Zhen looked at the girls and said, "If everyone has nothing else to do, then tomorrow, we'll depart together for the Star Dou Great Forest to acquire spirit rings for Huo Yutong and the others. For the rest of you, consider it a training experience."
The girls exchanged glances, then nodded slightly, their emotions somewhat excited.
The previous Soul Fighting Competition was about fighting people.
This trip to the Star Dou Great Forest was about fighting Spirit Beasts.
Over a month of deep meditation, plus the absorption of Spirit Bones. Everyone's strength could be said to have greatly increased, with the lowest cultivation already reaching the fortieth-level bottleneck. By normal Spirit Master understanding, this was impossible, but with the Virtual World that could accelerate cultivation, Immortal Herbs, Dragon Blood, deep meditation, hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bones, plus their already excellent talent, all combined to achieve their current accomplishments.
The previous competition wasn't entirely satisfying. The girls didn't have many opportunities to go on stage later, and their teammates were too strong, so the girls could at most play a supporting role.
Now that their strength had increased, they naturally wanted to truly show off what they could do.
After finishing dinner and resting for a while, An Zhen went to bed early to prepare for rest.
An Zhen personally measured Wu Feng's changes. The tsundere Flame Dragon Girl was even better; the extra flesh on her body this time had grown in all the right places.
Ning Tian and Wu Feng's consciousness entered the Virtual World.
Gu Yuena submerged.
"Is there a way to contact Di Tian?"
"Yes."
"Tell him to keep a close eye on the Emperor Rui Beast, preferably by soft detention. We absolutely must not encounter it."
"?"
Gu Yuena was somewhat puzzled.
An Zhen knew about the Emperor Rui Beast? Perhaps he discovered it by observing the Fate Power of the Star Dou Great Forest before.
But to soft-detain the other party and avoid meeting? Was it simply worrying that they would harm the Emperor Rui Beast? Gu Yuena felt there seemed to be another reason.
"I have special intelligence sources. This is a very important matter. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."
An Zhen said with an extremely serious tone.
Gu Yuena became even more confused.
She raised her slender jade hand, which held the reverse scale hanging around her neck. A silver halo enveloped the two of them.
"Tell me."
"Someone wants to scheme against the Emperor Rui Beast."
An Zhen spoke of Tang San, of the split Tang Wutong, the Emperor Rui Beast, and Wang Donger.
An Zhen didn't want to be the Tang Clan's dog, so the two sides were naturally enemies.
"Despicable villain!"
Gu Yuena's face was icy cold, and veins bulged on her fair wrists. Gu Yuena believed An Zhen, because, "No wonder I always felt a strange aura on that Wang Donger, the bloodline of a God King and a wisp of a separate soul!"
"Dong'er is also innocent. She is Wang Donger, not Tang Wutong. The main enemy is that Tang San guy, but he is a God King of the God Realm, wielding two super divine tools. It's not advisable to directly confront him at the moment."
An Zhen said.
"Hoo~"
Gu Yuena slowly exhaled, the icy expression on her face gradually dissipating. "You're right. In our current state, confronting him would be a dead end."
"Once I become a god, everything will be fine."
An Zhen hugged Gu Yuena's slender waist, gently nuzzling the girl's beautiful cheek. A faint body fragrance lingered at An Zhen's nose.
"Then let's do as you say."
A rare sense of powerlessness appeared on Gu Yuena's face. A God King of the God Realm. Given her current physical condition, even fighting to the death would only severely injure the opponent. She was too severely injured. If she were at her peak, how could a mere God King who had become a god for ten thousand years be her opponent?
A pair of jade arms embraced An Zhen. Gu Yuena's cherry lips curved into an arc.
Fortunately, in this situation, there was still An Zhen to share the pressure with her.
"One more thing, can Di Tian help us find suitable Spirit Beasts?"
Huo Yutong's mental attribute, Wang Donger's light attribute, and Wu Feng's fire-plus-dragon were all difficult to find. Suitable high-quality spirit rings were even harder to find.
"Yes."
Gu Yuena nodded lightly. Only True Dragons and hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beasts were somewhat important; the latter could occasionally become food. As for this operation, it would just be the Dragon King being hungry and going hunting.
