Uncle Kun stood in front of Ma Hongjun.
His martial soul had already possessed him, and seven soul rings shone brightly on his body.
"You're being unreasonable, old man!"
Uncle Kun's temper changed drastically in an instant; it seemed that in this desolate desert, people's murderous intent could easily run rampant.
"Kid, I've disliked you for a long time, and you even wanted to marry into our Dragon-Snake Zhu family. You
're nothing but a pretty face."
Uncle Kun looked coldly at Ma Hongjun. He couldn't stand these pretty boys who thought they could live off women just because
they had good looks. "You're ugly, but don't be jealous of others who are good-looking."
"Besides, I've already taken advantage of you. As for whether you'll marry into the family, that depends on my mood later!"
"Kid, what did you say?" Uncle Kun was furious.
"Old man, are you hard of hearing or hard of thinking? You can't even understand this."
"You're courting death!"
"Are you sure you can beat me?"
"Do you really think you can stand against a Soul Saint?
Kid, no matter which family you're from, it's unwise for you to enter the desert alone."
Uncle Kun's eyes fell on Ma Hongjun's jade belt again.
"No wonder your Zhu family needs a woman like Xiaofan to inherit the family. It turns out you people are all too brainless."
Ma Hongjun looked at Uncle Kun with contempt. This old man wanted to kill him for food and water, but he was also worried that Ma Hongjun was from some powerful family. Uncle Kun was furious.
He didn't expect this kid to be so sharp-tongued. He stopped wasting words and just wanted to kill Ma Hongjun and take the spatial soul tool.
After getting food and water, he left the desert.
"Fire Dance Dragon and Snake!"
Dragons and snakes formed from flames flew towards Ma Hongjun.
"Don't hurt my camel!"
Ma Hongjun jumped off the camel and shielded it behind him.
The Martial God Spear appeared in his hand, and six soul rings appeared on his body.
Red, purple, black!
The sixth spirit ring lit up!
"Earth Spear!"
All the yellow dark patterns on the Martial God Spear lit up, a layer of yellow spirit power enveloped the Martial God Spear, and a wall of earth was formed around the Martial God Spear.
Fire dragons and fire snakes rushed over, crashed into the earthen wall, and were all extinguished and dissipated.
This was Ma Hongjun's sixth spirit skill, Earth Spear.
It was still a spear technique that amplified attributes.
Earth Spear increased Ma Hongjun's defense by 150%.
Moreover, like the Water Spear, Earth Spear could condense into various forms based on the earth attribute and use them.
Earth overcomes fire!
Uncle Kun's flame power had been greatly reduced.
"Don't you even think about how I survived in the sand swarm?
Even your family's Soul Emperor died, do you really think Zhu Xiaofan's strength is enough to protect himself and save me?"
Uncle Kun was shocked. It turned out that this kid was hiding his strength, but seeing that the other party only had six spirit rings, he barely calmed down.
It was just that the crimson first spirit ring made him dare not look directly at it.
Such a bizarre spirit ring configuration is simply monstrous.
"Kid, give me your food and water, and I'll spare your life."
Uncle Kun was still unwilling to give up, but Ma Hongjun's spirit ring configuration was too terrifying, making him hesitant to fight him, and his tone softened.
"Arrogant old man, you can still get lost now. For Xiaofan's sake, I'll spare your life."
"Your spirit rings are bright, but you should know that the gap between a Spirit Saint and a Spirit Emperor cannot be bridged by spirit rings."
Uncle Kun hesitated. Spirit Saints possess a Martial Soul True Body, making it virtually impossible for a Spirit Master to fight a Spirit Saint beyond their level.
"That's because you're too inexperienced, and this only applies to most Spirit Masters. I'm not among them!
Since you won't leave, then let me send you on your way!"
Ma Hongjun was also eager to experience the strength of a Spirit Saint and see who was stronger between him and the 50,000-year-old Sanghuang Shalong.
The Earth Spear Spirit Skill continued to be activated, and Ma Hongjun unleashed the Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear, attacking Uncle Kun.
The yellow patterns on the Martial God Spear lit up completely, transforming the silver spear into a yellow one.
Yellow soul power surged from the spearhead, making it much thicker and covering a large area to block the opponent's flames.
Uncle Kun dared not underestimate him; his opponent was too strange.
His seventh soul ring lit up, and he prepared to fight with all his might.
"Martial Soul True Form, Earth Fire Dragon Serpent!"
Crimson flames surged, and a ferocious dragon head appeared, its thick snake tail supporting him.
Uncle Kun, transformed into his Martial Soul True Form, was terrifying, a dragon head and snake tail, flames surging.
A massive fireball erupted from the dragon head.
The fireball completely obscured Ma Hongjun's body, leaving him no way to dodge.
Ma Hongjun plunged his earthen spear into the yellow sand, which, under the spear's pull, flowed wildly, instantly coalescing into a sand body.
"Bang!"
The fireball struck the sand, shattering into countless sparks.
The true form of the Earth Fire Dragon Serpent spun around, its head wide open, lunging straight at Ma Hongjun.
"Wind Dragon Wing Bone!"
Ma Hongjun transformed into a streak of green, suddenly leaping up to dodge the dragon's head.
In an instant, several wind blades slashed out, heading straight for the dragon's head.
The wind blades struck, and the
dragon's head dimmed slightly. The serpent's tail twisted, its body elongating, attempting to coil around Ma Hongjun in mid-air.
It thought Ma Hongjun was about to fly away!
However, Ma Hongjun did not soar high, continuing to circle the Earth Fire Dragon Serpent. He
nimbly spun, completely unafraid of the crimson flames surging from the serpent's body.
He aimed for the serpent's belly and activated his fifth soul ring.
"Golden Spear!"
The Martial God Spear transformed from yellow to gold, piercing the serpent's belly.
This was the least covered area of the Earth Fire Dragon Serpent.
"Roar!"
With a loud roar, the Earth Fire Dragon Serpent swooped down, coiling itself around Ma Hongjun.
Ma Hongjun smiled fiercely, not using his Wind Dragon Wing Bone to escape.
Instead, he retracted it.
Then, holding a gun in his left hand, a dark golden claw extended from his right.
Blue dragon scales surged across his body, and
at the end of his tailbone, a scorpion dragon tailbone protruded, its tip gleaming with a venomous stinger.
The Earth Fire Dragon Serpent finally coiled around him, completely enveloping Ma Hongjun.
"Ah~"
A scream rang out as Uncle Kun's Martial Soul True Form vanished, and the enormous Earth Fire Dragon Serpent True Form slowly dissipated, revealing a disheveled Uncle Kun before Ma Hongjun.
His left abdomen bore five grotesque claw holes, and his right abdomen a large gunshot wound.
On his neck was a small needle-like hole, already turning purplish-brown.
"Monster, hedgehog, not human!"
Uncle Kun clutched his neck, staring at Ma Hongjun in horror.
Was this even human?
Blue scales,
cyan wing bones,
yellow scorpion tail bones, and
golden five-clawed claws—
his eyes gradually glazed over, and he began to regret his actions.
He wanted to beg for mercy, but he had no chance to speak; the venomous stinger had pierced his throat, the scorpion venom penetrating deep into his body.
His body had been destroyed by a single spear thrust and five claws.
Ma Hongjun grinned, a sinister smile on his face
. Uncle Kun's eyes widened in terror as he watched Ma Hongjun, finally dying in fear.
Ma Hongjun put away the soul bones on his body and sighed inwardly. He estimated he had absorbed all the external soul bones he could.
When he summoned all the soul bones, he truly looked like a monster.
"Huh, there's still something to gain!"
A yellow light flashed on Uncle Kun's left hand.
"A soul bone deliveryman!"
Ma Hongjun exclaimed in surprise, taking out the soul bone.
It was a yellow, transparent, crystal-clear left arm bone.
Sensing the aura of the soul bone, Ma Hongjun knew it came from the Sanghuang Salon and contained scorpion venom.
It seemed he had just obtained it from killing the Sanghuang Salon in the past few days.
However, this soul bone didn't seem to suit him very well; he hadn't seen it used during the battle.
Ma Hongjun stored the soul bone in his jade belt.
"This can be considered an unexpected gain!"
