Ye Qiu smiled lightly and patted the cloth pouch at his waist.
"Let's go!"
He glanced at Liu Erlong beside him and said softly.
Then he pulled her forward.
"Ye Qiu, you must be careful later. I may not be able to completely protect you!"
Liu Erlong followed beside Ye Qiu, gently reminding him.
"It's a life-or-death battle! Why are you watching me? If the enemy finds an opening and hurts you, I'll be done for too."
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes at her, annoyed.
"You just need to focus on taking down the enemy. Don't rush or underestimate them. I'll be careful!"
"Okay! I know." Liu Erlong nodded, appreciating the slight concern in Ye Qiu's words, and smiled happily.
Watching this scene,
Ye Qiu pinched his brow helplessly.
It seems that leading a team with someone obsessed with love carries significant risks.
Luckily, he had the foresight to find someone to cover for him.
...
Soon, Ye Qiu and his companion spotted two small dots in the distance.
The burly Nangong sat cross-legged on the ground.
The power he had expended hunting spirit beasts had long since been fully restored.
He had also chosen his battleground.
For an archer, it was natural to avoid direct combat in such an open area.
The dense forest behind him was perfect for him; he could use the obstacles to create distance from the enemy!
Nanming, standing nearby, immediately perked up.
"Brother, they're here!"
he reminded Nangong, then immediately released his martial soul.
Six spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—appeared beneath his feet, and a slender, blood-red arrow appeared in his hand, spinning twice.
"Hmm! I see them!" Nangong's voice boomed as he suddenly stood up.
The slender Nanming stood before his over two-meter-tall, burly frame, like his little wife.
Buzz!
The ground was suddenly bathed in a crimson glow.
A large, blood-red bow appeared in Nangong's hand.
The dragon patterns on it were lifelike, as if they were about to come alive.
Beneath his feet were seven spirit rings: two yellow, two purple, and three black.
His spirit power of level seventy-nine was comparable to Liu Erlong's.
"It seems we can all complete the task His Majesty assigned us!" Nangong muttered coldly
to himself, watching Liu Erlong and Ye Qiu rushing towards him. He was completely indifferent to the fate of the others. If the mission wasn't completed, they would all die sooner or later anyway! "Nanming, go inside and wait for me!" "Understood!" Nanming replied and immediately walked into the dense forest behind them. Nangong, however, began to draw his bow towards Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong. The third spirit ring beneath his feet flashed and suddenly flew into the sky, spreading out and enveloping the approaching Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong. He then fired an arrow at the spirit ring, followed by a rain of thousands of arrows. The third soul skill, Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart! "Erlong, be careful!" A flash of light appeared in Ye Qiu's eyes, and the arrows pierced right through him. Liu Erlong immediately summoned her martial soul, a fire dragon roaring behind her. Seven soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—pulled continuously beneath her feet. "Third Soul Skill, Raging Thunder!" As soon as she finished speaking, a huge fireball of lightning appeared in Liu Erlong's hand. She threw it into the air above herself. Boom! Then, flames filled the sky, and lightning flashed everywhere. The sky above her head was bright again. Nangong looked at Ye Qiu with some surprise, a cold glint flashing in her blood-red pupils. She turned and ran towards Nanming. "Stop right there!" Seeing that he had just gotten close, Nangong turned to run. The fourth soul ring under Liu Erlong's feet flickered, and another fireball appeared in her hand. Fourth Soul Skill, Bloodthirsty Flames! The fiery red light shone on Nangong's back as it blasted towards him. "Don't even think about it!" Nanming shouted from the dense forest. Immediately, an arrow was hurled out. Fifth Soul Skill, Crushing Arrow! The arrow grew larger and larger, instantly becoming as thick as a person, hurtling towards the giant fireball. Ye Qiu's eyes flashed, and he activated his Divine Might. The enormous arrow twisted slightly, pausing for a moment. Suddenly, it grazed past the ball of dragon flame. With a thud, it crashed to the ground. Seeing this, Ye Qiu reached out, and a large number of blue and red Blue Silver Emperors appeared in front of Nangong. They blocked his path and swept towards him. "Big Brother!" Nanming exclaimed in surprise, his attack missing its target. His face immediately darkened. Nangong frowned, looking at the Blue Silver Emperors appearing before him, wondering what Ye Qiu's martial soul was. Sensing the scorching heat of the dragon flame approaching from behind, he stopped fleeing. His second soul ring flashed, and he raised his great bow, slashing down. Second Soul Skill, Bow Like a Longsword! Whoosh! *Bang! * The blood-red bow slashed downwards, sending a crescent-shaped blade of energy flying forward, instantly shattering Liu Erlong's dragon flame. For a moment, it obscured Liu Erlong's vision. "Big brother! Watch out behind you!" Hearing Nanming's voice, he immediately turned around. After he turned around...
Looking at the several blue and red fruits, each larger than a watermelon, that had already formed before him,
Ye Qiu's expression immediately darkened. He chuckled softly
and whispered, "Explode!"
Boom!
The Blue Silver Ice-Fire Breaker exploded.
Then Ye Qiu's brows furrowed again. He could clearly see that his soul skill hadn't caused much damage;
it had only left him somewhat disheveled.
It seemed that if he faced a Soul Saint head-on, he wouldn't stand much of a chance against seasoned veterans!
As he prepared to enter the battlefield, Ye Qiu couldn't help but remind the person beside him,
"Erlong, be careful!"
"Yes, I know!" Liu Erlong nodded quickly, her face serious.
She was no longer the gentle person she was in front of Ye Qiu.
Nangong had already activated his Martial Soul True Body.
Ye Qiu's attack had only caused some fluctuation in his blood and qi.
But being slightly injured by a brat still made him very unhappy. He
immediately jumped onto a tree branch and stood beside Nanming.
Not long after Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong stepped into the forest, Nangong shouted to his side,
"Nanming, Spirit Fusion Technique!"
"Understood, Big Brother!"
Nanming replied.
Nanming reacted immediately, turning back to back with his brother.
Nangong's spirit rose into the sky, seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—rising beneath his feet.
The arrow in Nanming's hand also ascended rapidly, adorned with his six spirit rings.
"Not good!"
Ye Qiu was startled, his right eye immediately looking up.
Crimson blood flowed as he suddenly opened his eyes.
"!!" Nangong felt his scalp tingle. Without thinking, he grabbed Nanming by the collar and quickly moved to another tree.
Bang!
The moment they left, black flames erupted from the tree trunk, and in an instant, the branch snapped off.

Liu Erlong immediately entered her Martial Soul True Body state.
However, the dense trees somewhat restricted her movements.
She could only unleash a breath of dragon flame towards Nangong and the others.
Whoosh!
Unfortunately, it was too late.
As fraternal twins, their Martial Souls were originally one.
Their compatibility was unparalleled!
A blood-red arrow shot directly at the dragon flame.
The dragon flame exploded.
A complete Heavenly Punishment sword floated in the sky.
Thirteen soul rings floated below.
"Amaterasu!" Ye Qiu used Amaterasu again, but it was blocked by a layer of transparent light.
This kid's soul skill is incredibly strange!
Nangong glanced at Ye Qiu indifferently.
A burly figure appeared behind the two brothers; it seemed to be a combination of the two brothers.
After a bright flash of blood-red light,
a long-haired, burly man appeared, wielding a complete Heavenly Punishment sword.
Under Ye Qiu's Sharingan observation, the terrifying soul power was almost on par with a Title Douluo!
"This is bad!" Ye Qiu's expression turned grave.
"Kid, you have great potential. How about joining us?"
A combined voice of Nangong and Nanming rang out, and the burly man actually extended an olive branch to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu didn't immediately refuse.
He also wanted to get some information about their purpose.
"I wonder what I can get by joining you? And what will I have to give up?"
Liu Erlong stood quietly to the side, listening without disturbing Ye Qiu.
"Hehe... Join us, and you can witness the birth of a god! You can change this unjust world, and you will get everything you want!"
The long-haired, burly man raised his hands, looking up at the sky as if praising his faith, somewhat fanatical.
Then he looked at Ye Qiu and slowly said:
"And all you need to do is offer your loyalty! Contribute to our actions!"
Ye Qiu frowned deeply.
Become a god?!
Does that mean inheriting a divine position or creating one?
"I wonder how a god can be born?"
"Hehe."
The red-haired, burly man sneered, not answering Ye Qiu's question.
He raised his longbow.
The third, fourth, and seventh soul rings belonging to Nangong flashed beneath his feet. (Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart, Blood Arrow Sky Curtain, Martial Soul True Body)
and the third soul ring belonging to Nanming flashed. (Rapid Arrow Encirclement)
"Fusion Skill - Anti-Air Arrow Realm!"
A hoarse voice fell, and blood arrows soared into the sky.
A sense of foreboding washed over him, and Ye Qiu immediately tried to use his divine might to redirect it.
However, his divine might seemed to have failed.
How could this be?!
"Erlong!"
Ye Qiu shouted without hesitation.
"Sixth Soul Skill, Explosive Fire Dragon Swiftness!"
A
dragon flame, like a fiery dragon, was unleashed, rushing rapidly towards the long-haired, burly man (abbreviated as: Nangong Ming!).
Trees along the way collapsed and exploded in its path.
Boom!
"How could this be?!"
Liu Erlong stared in shock at the scene.
Nangong Ming was surrounded by arrows she couldn't detect, constantly flying around him.
Ye Qiu used Amaterasu on him and the arrows he fired, but it couldn't even hurt them!
"Spatial ability!"
Ye Qiu's face darkened.
"Haha. Did you notice? When I used this soul skill, I was no longer in the same space as you!"
Nangong Ming laughed.
Crackling sounds!
The blood-red arrows rose rapidly into the air, exploding like fireworks.
When they fell, they transformed into a sky full of arrows.
Ye Qiu was about to use his ethereal transformation to dodge, but he found that he couldn't use his Divine Might!
"Damn it!" Ye Qiu's face was grim.
Apart from when he faced Dugu Bo, he had never encountered such a situation!
It seemed that he had underestimated the soul masters of this world!
Swish!
Before he could think any further, a large amount of Blue Silver Emperor enveloped Ye Qiu.
Liu Erlong, on the other hand, stirred up all her soul power to strengthen the defense of her dragon scales.
The rain of arrows, however, slowly merged into the void in Ye Qiu's astonished eyes
, with wisps of blood-red threads locking this space in place.
"Boy, you felt it, didn't you? Your spatial ability has failed!" Nangong Ming squinted at Ye Qiu smugly.
"My Anti-Air Arrow Realm has completely isolated this space, cutting off its interaction with other spaces."
Nangong Ming looked at Ye Qiu calmly, then spoke again, "I won't tell you about these issues! Choose, and Miss Liu, I suggest you surrender quickly!"
"Don't even think about it!"
Liu Erlong shouted, immediately spitting out a mouthful of dragon flame.
Nangong Ming leaped away from that position.
Ye Qiu's eyes lit up!
It seemed that what he meant by being in a different space from them was just a special protective mechanism when using a soul skill!
Ye Qiu followed up with an Amaterasu!
Whoosh!
Nangong Ming dodged, hiding behind a large tree, constantly increasing the distance between himself and Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong.
"It seems you've made your choice!"
Nangong Ming leaned against the tree, having lost his patience.
Maintaining this barrier requires a significant amount of his soul power, and its range is not large, only about thirty meters in radius.
If he or the enemy leaves this area, then this soul skill will be useless.
Ye Qiu's Sharingan had already seen this clearly.
The crimson soul power that permeated the void disappeared thirty meters away.
He felt a little relieved!
Whoosh!
Nangong Ming poked his head out.
The sixth soul rings belonging to Nangong and Liu Erlong flashed under his feet.
"Blood Dragon Poison Arrow!"
Two arrows actually attacked Ye Qiu and Liu Erlong respectively.
These were the poison arrows used to assassinate Qian Renxue!
"It's not over yet!" Nangong Ming murmured, and the soul rings under his feet flashed again.
He fired another arrow, a rain of arrows filling the sky, with sharp crimson threads connecting the arrows.
The treetops were easily sliced flat.
"Amaterasu!"
Ye Qiu activated Amaterasu, and the two crimson arrows burned out before they even hit the ground.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Soaring Flame!"
"Roar~!" The crimson dragon in the sky roared, and a dragon flame storm suddenly swept around its body!
And it exploded in all directions and into the sky.
The blood-red rain of arrows was blasted away.
But the blood-red threads had already severed the crimson dragon's outstretched wings.
A look of pain flashed across Liu Erlong's face.
Ye Qiu looked at the collapsing trees around him and his Susanoo on the verge of collapse.
He touched the wound on his face where the threads had cut him.
His Sharingan glanced at Nangong Ming, who had moved to a different position.
His expression was somewhat helpless!
He waved towards the sky.
"Erlong, come down!"
"Huh?" Liu Erlong, who was about to rush forward, looked at him in confusion.
"Listen to me, trust me, everything will be alright!" Ye Qiu smiled mysteriously.
Hearing this, Liu Erlong hesitantly released her Martial Soul Possession, her arms bearing some bloodstains.
"Ye Qiu~"
Liu Erlong came to Ye Qiu's side.
Ye Qiu took her soft hand in his.
"What is this guy trying to do?!" Nangong Ming frowned; hiding behind a tree, he had naturally seen this scene.
