"Erlong, there are two Soul Emperors over there, their cultivation levels are probably around level sixty."
Ye Qiu sat on the back of a soul beast, the purple windmill in his six-pointed star shining brightly.
He was staring intently at the two evil soul masters.
"Then let's go over there now!"
Liu Erlong put away the shyness on her face, clenched her fists, and her eyes flashed with fierce fighting spirit.
"Wait a moment, let me check the surroundings again!" Ye Qiu hugged her body, stopping her from moving.
Then he used his Sharingan to survey the surroundings.
"No problem, we'll each take one, I'll cover you."
"Okay!" Liu Erlong nodded, her face red.
...
"I say, Fengzi, have they already left the Star Dou Great Forest?"
In the dark forest, Iwatani and the others had just come out of a cave and couldn't help but complain again.
"Impossible! According to Lord Nangong, that kid's cultivation isn't high. Even if he has teleportation abilities, how far can he teleport with his meager soul power?"
The evil soul master named Fengzi responded in a deep voice.
He was quite convinced by Nangong's analysis. When they were slaughtering the continent, they had encountered soul masters with spatial abilities before.
Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that
Ye Qiu's Divine Might Space was different. No matter how far the distance, the consumption was constant!
Of course, the size and mass of the object also mattered. The larger the object, the slower it would move, and the more soul power and mental energy it would consume!
Fengzi looked up at the sky.
He shook his head helplessly: "Alright, stop complaining, hurry up and search the vicinity!"
"Roar~!"
As soon as Fengzi finished speaking, a roar of some kind of soul beast suddenly came from the dense forest!
"What is that!" Yan Gu exclaimed, looking behind him
. "It's a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!" Fengzi's gaze followed closely behind.
It was a ten-thousand-year-old Swift Shadow Leopard. Crackling sounds
!
"Not good! Dodge!"
*Boom!*
Before Fengzi could finish speaking, a massive fireball hurtled towards them from behind.
The dark forest was suddenly illuminated.
The two reacted quickly, leaping to opposite sides.
The fireball carved a long furrow in the ground
before crashing into a tree and exploding with a deafening roar.
"It's that kid!" Iwatani turned to see Ye Qiu, with his blue hair, standing atop a tree, looking down at them.
Blue Silver Emperor's third soul skill, Blue Silver Ice and Fire Break!
Before they could even react,
Blue Silver Emperors burst forth from the ground, followed by basketball-sized ice-blue and fiery-red energy balls.
"It's that move again!"
A look of panic flashed across Fengzi's face as he quickly prepared to use his defensive soul skill.
*Boom!*
The powerful explosions filled the forest with smoke and dust, and some weaker trees collapsed.
Within the thick smoke,
a flame ignited.
Fengzi stood inside a fiery red dome, six spirit rings—one white, two yellow, two purple, and one black—floating beneath his feet.
He twitched his lips, secretly relieved that he had reacted quickly and hadn't suffered much damage.
On the other side, Iwatani, who lacked any defensive spirit skills, wasn't so lucky.
When the explosion occurred, he could only try his best to protect his vital points with all his spirit power and move to the edge.
But the damage was still considerable.
He had also unexpectedly triggered a burning effect; now, even breathing was excruciatingly painful, and his blood-stained robe was tattered.
Footsteps sounded behind him, and Iwatani immediately turned to check.
He saw another fireball hurtling towards him.
"You're asking for death, kid!" Iwatani roared, and six spirit rings—two yellow, three purple, and one black—immediately appeared beneath his feet.
Behind him was a flickering small flame—his martial soul.
Blue Silver Entanglement!
Bang! Suddenly, a large amount of Blue Silver Emperor appeared on the ground, trying to envelop him.
"Get out of the way!"
Iwatani's sixth spirit ring lit up, and a powerful force suddenly erupted from his body, transforming into a sharp blade that sliced through the Blue Silver Emperor!
Then, his fifth spirit ring lit up, and he unleashed a Flame Fist!
His right fist was wreathed in flames, enveloping him in firelight to insulate him from the heat.
Boom!
After shattering the fireball spat out by Ye Qiu with a single punch ,
Fengzi's call came from afar.
"Iwatani, how's it going over there?!" Fengzi
was about to head over to meet him. But Iwatani shouted, "Damn it! Send the signal now!"
With his reminder, Fengzi finally reacted and quickly pulled out something that looked like a firecracker from his pocket.
He looked up, about to pull the switch.
His expression suddenly changed drastically, filled with terror and panic.
"Not good!"
A figure descended from the sky.
"Die, you bastard!"
Liu Erlong descended from the sky, already covered in fiery red scales.
She went all out from the start.
Seventh spirit skill, Crimson Dragon True Body!
Fourth spirit skill, Bloodthirsty Flames!
A colossal crimson dragon spread its wings, unleashing a massive fireball of blood-red energy, imbued with dragon might!
Seeing that the signal couldn't be successfully launched, Fengzi gritted his teeth.
His fourth and sixth spirit rings flashed, and the fiery red Camel Hump Martial Soul instantly materialized.
"Fourth Spirit Skill, Blazing Flames!"
"Sixth Spirit Skill, Blazing Barrier!"
A pillar of flame, as thick as a man, shot upwards, meeting the massive crimson dragon head-on.
A fiery red barrier completely enveloped him!
He knew that only by enduring this attack could he have a chance to call the others over!
Boom!
The earth rumbled.
Fortunately,
the countless giant trees of the Star Dou Great Forest formed a natural barrier,
preventing the sounds from traveling too far.
On the other side, Yan Gu broke free of the Blue Silver Emperor again, his face grim.
He was certain that Feng Zi was in grave danger after the
commotion he had caused! He stared darkly at the misty surroundings.
That brat dared to toy with him! He deserved to die!
"Now that Erlong is dealt with, I should finish too!" Ye Qiu's eyes flickered; he had thoroughly annoyed Yan Gu.
Blue Silver Thrust Formation!
Swish swish swish!
Ice-blue Blue Silver Emperors transformed into sharp spears, piercing upwards towards Yan Gu.
"Damn it!" Yan Gu dodged repeatedly, but his face and body were still inevitably injured.
Already wounded, his face paled even more.
*Whoosh!
* Another massive fireball hurtled towards him from behind.
"Third Soul Skill, Flame Burst!" Iwatani whirled around, unleashing a torrent of fireballs.
*Boom!*
The two fireballs collided.
Ye Qiu's fireball was blasted apart, and Iwatani's attack continued its forward momentum.
"How could this be!?" Iwatani stared in shock at Ye Qiu emerging from his fireball.
Then his expression hardened into a ferocious grin.
Ye Qiu's face was cold, his body crackling with blue-purple arcs of electricity,
leaving afterimages in the air.
"Good timing! Die!"
Iwatani's face darkened as he watched the Blue Silver Emperors closing in on him. He channeled his remaining soul power. His
sixth soul ring flashed, and a blade formed from flames appeared in his hand.
Sixth Soul Skill, Crimson Flame Blade!
The ground beneath his feet shattered as he charged towards Ye Qiu, hacking at the Blue Silver Emperors that advanced along his path.
He quickly clashed with Ye Qiu. His eyes widened in a ferocious grin
, his mouth twisted in a snarl, as if he could already see Ye Qiu's death.
*Thud!*
Watching the blade pierce Ye Qiu's heart, a terrifying smile appeared on his face.
He quickly realized something was wrong! There wasn't a drop of blood, completely different from his usual killings. Ye Qiu was even moving his body. His blade pierced Ye Qiu's body, slicing from the heart to the left. Yet not a drop of blood appeared! *Crackling sounds! * A deafening roar suddenly rang in his ears, and a bluish-purple light illuminated his pale face, turning it deathly white. Just as the blade pierced through Iwatani's hand, Ye Qiu solidified his body again. His right hand unleashed a torrent of lightning. Soul Bone Technique, Thousand Birds! Iwatani tried to retaliate and retreat, but found that the Blue Silver Emperor had already wrapped around him, binding his hands. *Swoosh!* The sharp Thousand Birds pierced his throat, blood gushing out, staining the ground red. *Thud!* Ye Qiu withdrew his hands, silently watching Iwatani's corpse slowly fall. "Ye Qiu~" Not far away, Liu Erlong, who had just finished the battle, ran over quickly. A charred corpse lay on the ground. "Ye Qiu! Are you alright?" "I'm fine." Ye Qiu shook his head and beckoned to someone in the shadows. The Swift Shadow Leopard quickly ran over. At Ye Qiu's command, it slowly stuffed the corpse into its mouth. Liu Erlong watched this scene, only frowning slightly, without saying a word. She picked up her sleeve and cleaned Ye Qiu's face, which was stained with a few drops of blood. A moment later! After cleaning up the battlefield, Ye Qiu used his divine power to leave this dangerous place. ... Half an hour passed. The Nangong and Nanming brothers had just finished slaughtering a small group of apes. Scattered on the ground were about twenty soul beasts, the strongest of which had over twenty thousand years of cultivation. Nangong was personally collecting their blood, controlling a blood-red bead that floated in the air. He continuously absorbed the blood of the dead soul beasts. He then turned to look at Nanming, who was covered in blood. "An hour has passed. Send a signal to check on their situation!" "Understood, Big Brother!" Nanming nodded. He took out a firecracker from his left-hand soul tool. *Biu* —A streak of blood-red light flashed across the sky, exploding brilliantly. After a moment, the surrounding sky remained silent. Nangong's face immediately darkened. "Brother, what's going on?" Nanming also sensed something was wrong; his signal hadn't received any response. It was truly bizarre; everything had been fine before! "What's going on?! Are you a pig-brain?!" Nangong roared, his face grim. "It seems... that woman has recovered! She's coming to take revenge on us!" Nangong said in a deep voice. "Brother, could they have been killed by soul beasts?" Nanming scratched his head and asked softly. "Calling you a pig-brain is an overestimation! How could such a coincidence happen?"
"Eight people were sent out in total, in four groups. Were they all eaten by the soul beasts?"
Nangong's face was gloomy. He put away the blood-red bead, looked around, and walked towards the outer area.
"Big brother, where are we going? Aren't we going to find her?" Nanming also realized what was going on, but seeing his older brother's actions, he was still a little confused.
"Hehe. Since she wants revenge, let her come to us. Let's rest for a while!"
Nangong's sinister voice came, and Nanming quickly followed.
…
Less than three kilometers away from Nangong and the others.
Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong had found the fourth two-person team.
This was the last team, and also the strongest one.
Their soul ring configurations were not only standard, but their cultivation levels had also reached level sixty-eight and sixty-seven, respectively.
"Roar~"
The true form of the Crimson Dragon in mid-air roared.
Third Soul Skill, Raging Thunder!
The Crimson Dragon opened its mouth and spat out a huge ball of lightning and fire, which blasted downwards.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Spear Strike Like a Dragon!"
The level 68 Soul Emperor below posed little threat to a Soul Saint with a Martial Soul True Body.
Liu Erlong faced an evil Soul Master whose Martial Soul was a red-tasseled spear.
Even with his powerful attack, he
was still somewhat outmatched by Liu Erlong's Martial Soul True Body.
On the other side,
Ye Qiu faced a level 67 evil Soul Master with
the Martial Soul Iron Fist Tiger!
Their signal was intercepted by Ye Qiu's divine might. Similarly, Ye Qiu had already seen and memorized
the signal sent by Nangong and the others. "Kid, I didn't expect you, a mere Soul Venerable, to dare provoke me! You're courting death!" "Roar!" The evil Soul Master's Martial Soul manifested, his muscles swelled, his hair grew thicker, and three horizontal and one vertical marks appeared on his forehead. His hands, in particular, were magnified several times over, covered in an iron-like, incredibly hard keratinous layer. Two yellow, two purple, and two black spirit rings unfolded in succession. The third spirit ring beneath his feet flashed brightly. The ground beneath his feet instantly cracked, and this creature, resembling both a human and a tiger, charged towards Ye Qiu like a hungry tiger. Third Spirit Skill, Fierce Tiger Assault! Ye Qiu's Eternal Kaleidoscope didn't blink. Although the figure, filled with afterimages, was indeed very fast, even Ye Qiu could only barely see it clearly, Ye Qiu's Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul was enough to slow him down. *Puff puff puff! * Blue Silver Emperors continuously emerged from the ground. His iron fists swung with ferocious force. "Get out of my way!" the evil spirit master roared, golden light suddenly erupting from his iron fists. "Fifth Spirit Skill, Earth Rumble!" His fists slammed into the ground, shattering it and creating terrifying waves of wind. The air trembled, and the surrounding Blue Silver Emperors crumbled inch by inch. Ye Qiu narrowed his eyes. Looking to the side, Liu Erlong's battle was also nearing its end. Whoosh! Facing the evil soul master who suddenly appeared before him, Ye Qiu's blood-red soul power immediately surged forth, condensing into a physical skeleton. Susanoo! He unleashed a punch with all his might towards the evil soul master. "This is...?!" A look of surprise flashed in the evil soul master's eyes, but his actions were merciless. Boom! The air exploded. Cracks appeared on Ye Qiu's Susanoo's giant fist. He was sent flying backward, his face paling slightly. It seemed that his Susanoo was still somewhat strained against a high-level Soul Emperor. Ye Qiu thought to himself. On the other hand, the evil soul master's body only trembled slightly, without taking a single step back. "Hmph!" Suddenly, his expression changed, and he let out a muffled groan. A fragrant aroma flooded his nostrils, and his body felt like it was being burned by fire, extremely uncomfortable. His breathing was painful, and his face turned red. A smile played on Ye Qiu's lips. The extreme fire contained within the Blue Silver Fragrance was having some effect! "Kid, die!" "Sixth Soul Skill, Iron Fist Mountain Splitter!" With another roar, his fist, already larger than a sandbag, swelled even more. Other buffing soul rings on his body flashed one after another. His body stood tall, instantly moving in front of Ye Qiu. Because of the martial soul's possession, his body, much taller than Ye Qiu, cast a shadow over him. "Die!" A straight punch from above rapidly enlarged before Ye Qiu's eyes. Ye Qiu was using Susanoo to fight him head-on. Just as they were about to touch, the blood-red skeleton on his body suddenly dissipated, and a bewitching light flashed in Ye Qiu's Sharingan. Boom! The ground trembled, and shockwaves swept outwards. "Ye Qiu~!" Outside the thick smoke, Liu Erlong's face flashed with worry as she rushed towards the scene. "Ah!" Suddenly, screams of agony came from within the smoke. Liu Erlong breathed a sigh of relief; this wasn't Ye Qiu's voice. He quickly walked inside. There, in a large pit, lay a blood-robed figure, black flames still rising from his head. He lay motionless in the pit. Ye Qiu stood at his feet, looking at the figure in the pit, crimson blood trickling from the corner of his right eye. Divine Might Penetration, Amaterasu Turning— this whole sequence of actions by Lao Liu was executed flawlessly.
Anyone unfamiliar with Ye Qiu's soul skills would easily fall victim!
"Phew~" Ye Qiu breathed a sigh of relief, wiping away imaginary sweat from his forehead.
"Ye Qiu, how are you?" Liu Erlong rushed over, cupping Ye Qiu's face and examining him closely.
"I'm fine," Ye Qiu said irritably, removing her hand.
Who checks a body by looking at the face?
"By the way, this guy seems to have a soul bone!" Ye Qiu dodged Liu Erlong's soft hand.
He glared at the man in the pit with his right eye.
His left leg was quickly burned away, leaving only a yellowish-brown soul bone.
Swish!
The Blue Silver Emperor caught it and flicked it, the soul bone landing in Ye Qiu's hand.
After a careful examination, a hint of disappointment flashed in Ye Qiu's eyes.
He said dejectedly,
"It seems to be of low age, only about five thousand years old."
"I also have a find here!"
Liu Erlong suddenly leaned on Ye Qiu's shoulder, holding a fiery red soul bone in her hand.
She looked at Ye Qiu with a smile.
"How is it? This one's quality isn't bad, at least 17,000 years old!"
Not far away, the Swift Shadow Leopard was enjoying a roasted meat.
It was missing its left arm.
"Here!" Liu Erlong stuffed the soul bone into Ye Qiu's hand.
"Erlong, you!"
Taking advantage of Ye Qiu holding the soul bone in both hands, Liu Erlong suddenly attacked.
She pressed down on Ye Qiu's shoulders, her red lips parted, and she took Ye Qiu's lips into her mouth.
She gently nibbled at them
. Noticing something, Ye Qiu's Adam's apple bobbed, and his pupils contracted slightly.
After a few breaths, Liu Erlong released Ye Qiu.
"Ye Qiu, don't dodge my movements in the future." Liu Erlong looked at Ye Qiu earnestly, her eyes somewhat dim.
She had waited too long.
She didn't want to experience that little bit of disappointment and loss again.
"Gulp~"
Ye Qiu paused, swallowing the sweetness in his mouth.
He nodded gently.
"Yes, I'll remember!"
Hearing this, Liu Erlong's still somewhat fierce expression after the battle softened completely.
She smiled gently, her thin lips curving into an alluring smile.
Her exquisitely beautiful face drew closer to Ye Qiu.
She said softly, "Let me wipe it clean for you."
As she spoke, Liu Erlong tiptoed towards Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu was startled, his eyes flickering, but he didn't flinch.
A voluptuous body pressed against him, warm and comforting.
A few drops of moisture traveled from his cheek to the corner of his eye.
The bloodstains left after using Amaterasu were absorbed by Liu Erlong.
Her tongue gently touched the blood, slowly leaving a kiss on the corner of his eye.
The tickling sensation on his face, the warm breeze, the lingering fragrance, and the voluptuous feel of her flesh stirred something within Ye Qiu; his heart pounded uncontrollably.
His hands, holding the Soul Bone, tightened around Liu Erlong's waist.
"Ha, Ye Qiu~"
Liu Erlong was pleased with his reaction, pressing her face against his and leaning against him.
Long, arched eyebrows, and obsidian eyes that shimmered with a captivating light.
"Alright, let's go! We still have a tough battle to fight later."
Ye Qiu tightened his embrace, gently shaking his head, their faces slowly rubbing together, generating considerable warmth.
"Mm!"
Liu Erlong didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
She snuggled closer to Ye Qiu.
She could finally feel her brother Ye Xiu's love again, even if only a tiny bit of
space was distorted.
Their embracing bodies were swept into the vortex, entering the Divine Might Space.
Ye Qiu didn't bring the Swift Shadow Leopard anymore; it was no longer needed.
After annihilating eight Soul Emperor-level evil Soul Masters,
Ye Qiu and his companions obtained three Soul Bones:
a 5,000-year-old earthen-yellow left leg bone, a 7,000-year-old emerald-green left arm bone, and a 17,000-year-old fiery-red left arm bone.
In addition, Liu Erlong had previously given Ye Qiu a left arm bone and a right leg bone, both 10,000-year-old.
Ye Qiu couldn't help but marvel.
The drop rate of these evil soul masters is really high! I wonder what they've been doing?!
Where did they get so many soul bones?!
...
In a dense forest scattered with the corpses of more than twenty ape-like soul beasts,
Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong slowly ran over from a distance.
Looking at the desiccated corpses all over the ground,
Ye Qiu suddenly understood where the soul bones from those evil soul masters came from.
He wondered why they were collecting this blood.
"Ye Qiu, what about the last two evil soul masters?" Liu Erlong held Ye Qiu's hand tightly, asking疑惑地问道.
"I already checked, they're in that clearing ahead, seemingly waiting for us!" Ye Qiu looked ahead, his expression calm.
He wasn't afraid of any tricks they might have
up their sleeves. After all, he had a huge trump card!
