"First Spirit Ability, Star Wheel Chain!"
Xu Xiaoyan, who had only entered the battlefield by being carried by Yuanen Yehui, took action. Her Star Staff Spirit drew down starlight as four purple spirit rings shone brightly, yet she only used her first Spirit Ability.
For a moment, the crowd watching from the star luo ship was a bit dazed. What use could a four-ring Spirit Ancestor's first Spirit Ability be on a battlefield like this?
On the star luo ship's gunwale, Dai Yuner's focus was elsewhere as she gripped the railing. Her full chest pressed against the cold ironwood as she said to Ye Zhi, who was watching in the battle nearby, "Sister Ye Zhi, Feng Zaixing has reached seven rings. Do we still have a chance for revenge?"
Ye Zhi was supporting their side's experts with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Hearing this, she wore a bitter expression and said, "Little Princess, you'd better wake up. Even if Big Brother Long fought him, he would die."
Long Yue was certainly a once-in-a-millennium Genius of the Star Luo Empire, but Feng Zaixing's current level was no longer within the competition of the younger generation. With Three-Word Battle Armor and his Blazing Fire God-Sealing Sword, he dared to draw blood from a Vicious Beast.
Under equal combat conditions, if a Two-Word Battle Armor Mountain Dragon King were to clash with a Vicious Beast, it would be a miracle if they survived three moves.
Hearing this, Dai Yuner muttered, "Fortunately, this guy isn't in the Star Luo Empire, otherwise Father would definitely force a marriage—wait, I can use him as an excuse!"
Dai Yuner's eyes lit up as she found a loophole. It was known that no one in the current younger generation could fight better than Feng Zaixing. As long as she said she didn't care for the local young talents, wouldn't that solve everything?
Of course, Dai Yuner would never actually like someone like Feng Zaixing, who was so impolite as to tie people up at every turn; he was just an excuse.
While Dai Yuner was feeling smug, Xu Xiaoyan had already waved her Star Staff, and chains of starlight rose onto the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's body.
Guaranteed Effect: Everyone below Divine Rank is forced to stand still for one second!
"What on earth is this thing!"
The Deep Sea Octopus Emperor, who was currently exerting all his strength in a head-on struggle against Feng Zaixing, suddenly felt weak all over. The skyscraping dark clouds he had propped up were instantly cleaved open by Feng Zaixing's Blazing Fire God-Sealing Sword, and he was sent flying back like a meteor, nearly being split down the middle!
"Come back!"
Feng Zaixing manipulated the mechanics of the Holy Body Heaven Domain, forcibly pinning the flying Deep Sea Octopus Emperor back to his original position.
Before the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor could recover from his shock, he saw Xu Xiaoyan's third Spirit Ability light up. The innocent and cute girl drew down a large area of starlight that happened to shine right on that spot.
"How can this be?!"
The Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's massive body was hit head-on by the light, rendering him unable to move. For a moment, he even felt like cursing Xu Xiaoyan's ancestors for eighteen generations.
"Farewell!"
A Ruheng's body immediately pressed forward, his shadow looming large.
His Golden-level third Awakening, along with several buffing Spirit Abilities and Spirit Bone abilities, all took effect simultaneously. His combat power climbed to its Peak as he raised his god-level mecha battle saber and slashed it down upon the Vicious Beast's head with a resounding crash!
The one second of guaranteed effect passed, and the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's life aura weakened to the extreme, having been nearly decapitated by A Ruheng.
He raised the tentacles of his lower body to counterattack, attempting to strike A Ruheng.
Feng Zaixing raised his sword and swept downward, severing all of the tentacles.
Blood splattered into the sea. The Deep Sea Octopus Emperor lost all resistance amidst a violent tremor and closed his eyes unwillingly under A Ruheng's massive blade.
"Lord Sea God, if you can still see us, please send down divine punishment to penalize those who slaughter your believers."
The Deep Sea Octopus Emperor used his last bit of strength to call out loudly. A Ruheng turned his blade, and his power penetrated the creature's body.
"What are you muttering about? Just hand over your spirit ring and Spirit Bone."
A Ruheng sheathed his blade. The Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's fanatical expression was forever frozen on his face as his pupils lost focus.
Feng Zaixing watched from the side, thinking that in a sense, they had slaughtered a believer right in front of the Sea God.
Boom!
A massive energy field from the Vicious Beast's fall erupted. A huge, blood-red spirit ring floated out from the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's body, adorned with two golden streaks that manifested the Vicious Beast's powerful cultivation.
At this moment, the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor's last words reached the ship. Tang Sans Divine Sense was instantly fuming with rage, and he gnashed his teeth.
They actually killed the only Vicious Beast among these Sea Soul Beasts who believed in him? Doing this was just another way to court death!
He breathed heavily, his heart raging, "Fine, once I have recovered, I will turn you all into my son's slaves to atone for today's sins!"
He forced himself to close his eyes, preparing to mobilize his power.
This strand of his Divine Sense was actually rootless water from start to finish; only by using the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud as a vessel could he safely fight three times and use the Unsettled Storm.
Without the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, his remaining Divine Sense was simply not enough to attempt to control the Abyssal Holy Monarch.
However, now that a new son of the plane had appeared, he had to clear all obstacles for his plan. He had long since regarded the Douluo Continent as his own, and he would never allow anyone else to lay a finger on it.
More importantly, he vaguely saw the same heaven-reaching potential in this group of people that Huo Yuhao had back then.
A Vicious Beast spirit ring... even he, Tang San, only had that one from the Deep Sea Demon Whale King before becoming a god!
The first battle ended, causing countless chain reactions.
The Evil Spirit Orca pack and the Deep Sea Demon Whale pack were shocked. Both Spirit Beast kings felt the urge to flee, and some giant whales even exited the battlefield directly.
The Deep Sea Demon Whale pack could hold their noses and cooperate with the Evil Spirit Orcas out of anger over a Sea Soul Beast being hunted, but only if it was within their capability. Now that they were running, they couldn't be blamed.
The Evil Spirit Orca pack, however, was fearless and even fought until their eyes turned red, but they couldn't withstand Feng Zaixing turning around and delivering a heavy strike to the Evil Spirit Orca King.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
The Evil Spirit Orca King was sent flying hundreds of meters like a meteor. Feeling great pain, he turned and fled.
The Evil Spirit Orca pack immediately scattered like birds and beasts, and the Deep Sea Demon Whale pack also retreated in a hurry.
"Bastard!" the Evil Spirit Orca Vicious Beast cursed. He used the Evil Spirit Orca's Fiendish Intimidation to lock down the space before diving into the sea, leaving only his back visible.
With all his teammates gone, he couldn't keep fighting.
Feng Zaixing did not give chase because Han Tianyi had already quietly followed the Evil Spirit Orca pack. He believed that the Spirit Transfer Pagoda would soon have one more hundred-thousand-year Sea Soul Beast spirit soul.
Evil Spirit Orcas were the Evil Soul Masters among Sea Soul Beasts; killing any number of them wouldn't cause any psychological burden.
As for the Deep Sea Demon Whale pack—
Feng Zaixing flew in the air to clean up the battlefield. Looking at the retreating Demon Whale pack, he thought to himself, "Their aura is very strong. I wonder if that was the Demon Empress's daughter, Lan Fozi."
The great battle ended, and the experts on the star luo ship cleaned up the battlefield, reaping a bountiful harvest.
The two types of whale Spirit Beasts were treasures from head to toe. The Whale Glue formed after drying whale brains could effectively improve physical fitness and act as an aphrodisiac, and their body parts had extremely high nutritional value.
There was no need to worry about wasting spirit rings. spirit tool technology had long since developed spirit tools that could remove the aura from spirit rings. After some processing, the spirit rings could be sold to other Spirit Masters for a high price.
"What a pity. I've been killing for so long and didn't get a single Spirit Bone."
Qiangu Zhangting took apart several Evil Spirit Orcas. Finding no Spirit Bone, he lost interest and ordered the students like Tang Wulin and Xie Xie to help process the orcas.
In his eyes, only Spirit Bones counted as good things; everything else was useless.
"Damn, they actually had a Spirit Bone drop over there?"
Xie Xie looked up and saw Luan Hongchen tinkering around before digging a torso bone out of a Deep Sea Demon Whale, his face full of envy.
Black lines twitched on Qiangu Zhangting's forehead.
Tang Wulin covered his mouth and whispered, "That's nothing. Look over where Xiaoyan and the others are; they even have a Vicious Beast Spirit Bone."
Qiangu Zhangting's forehead was now covered in black lines.
If one were to look for the place where the soul light was surging most intensely, it was naturally around the Deep Sea Octopus Emperor surrounded by Feng Zaixing and the others. It had produced a bright blue, complete torso bone. The energy contained within was so powerful that many experts couldn't help but look over.
Although Feng Zaixing didn't understand how a soft-bodied creature like an octopus could produce a torso bone, the World rules of the Douluo Continent were just like that. Even a Blue Silver Emperor could produce a leg bone, so these things were not surprising.
A Ruheng took an hour to absorb it and then released the preserved Vicious Beast spirit ring.
The blood qi of his Original martial soul steamed outward as his heart thundered. This scene had a particularly ancient style.
Many people swallowed their saliva, their faces a mix of a thousand emotions like envy, jealousy, and desire, either admiring or sighing.
Everyone knew that a Vicious Beast's spirit ring and Spirit Bone were peerless treasures. Even in ancient and primeval times, few people had such a peerless Opportunity.
Gaining such an Opportunity was equivalent to getting a pass to become a top-tier powerhouse of the current age. There would be no Bottleneck before reaching Limit Douluo, and one would have infinite potential to charge toward the rank of Quasi-God.
Turbid World gave a deep sigh. Another top-tier expert had been born; heaven favored the Body Sect too much.
Wu Changkong whispered from the side, "Teacher, don't think too much about it. This isn't something we can change."
Don't get any crooked ideas, or else our small group won't even be enough for them to kill.
Tang Wulin thought about the gap between his Blue Silver Grass and the other's Spirit. His face showed envy, and a hint of regret flashed in his heart.
Back then, Feng Zaixing had invited him to join the Body Sect, but with the Tang Sect in mind, he had chosen to refuse.
Xie Xie saw this and comforted him while working hard, "Don't think too much. We are still acquaintances after all. Who knows, maybe there will be a chance to ask him for help in the future?"
"I hope so," Tang Wulin nodded.
Qiangu Zhangting gave a soft snort and walked back to the cabin to rest.
Time quickly moved to night, and the star luo ship continued its voyage. A Ruheng also completed his Cultivation. A violent spirit power storm swept in all directions as the Vicious Beast spirit ring hovered steadily around his body.
Clap! Clap! Clap—
The sound of applause rang out. As soon as A Ruheng opened his eyes, he saw Feng Zaixing, Naer, and Yuanen Yehui standing around him, congratulating him.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother (Senior Martial Uncle), on becoming a Titled Douluo!"
A Ruheng chuckled and stood up to do some stretching exercises. His powerful and brawny muscle lines contained the strength to lift mountains and ride seas. Scratching his scalp, he said, "It's alright. It's all thanks to you and Xiaoyan, Junior Brother. I finally have the ability to protect you all behind me."
Feng Zaixing nodded and smiled, "The title of Body Douluo has found its Legacy. Teacher will be very happy when he finds out."
"Senior Brother's spirit power is at the Peak of rank ninety-three. That old fellow Smiling Tiger is no longer our match."
"I remember when Teacher was only at rank ninety-four in his early years; even back then, he wouldn't have been your match without his four-word battle armor."
A Ruheng's expression changed upon hearing this, and he hurriedly said, "Junior Brother, don't joke. The title of Body Douluo is the symbol of the Sect Master. How can I use it?"
Feng Zaixing joked, "I don't think that title sounds very good, so I want to use a different one. Don't blame me, Senior Brother."
A Ruheng insisted, "There's no conflict; you can use another one. I've already thought it through. My title will be Golden Body, the Golden Body Douluo A Ruheng!"
Seeing this, Feng Zaixing was inwardly speechless. Other Sects would beat each other's brains out for the position of Sect Master, but their Body Sect was small and simple; no one wanted it even when it was offered.
"Alright, alright. Don't blame me, Senior Brother. I'll take the position."
"That's more like it. You have a resounding reputation, Junior Brother, so I'll just focus on Cultivating. I have a premonition that the Realm of the Leakless Golden Body isn't far off."
"Then we shall wait and see."
Feng Zaixing agreed, his gaze suddenly falling on Naer and Yuanen Yehui with a light smile.
The two girls shuddered, having a rather bad premonition.
"Senior Brother (Teacher), what are you going to do—"
Feng Zaixing squinted and smiled, "I almost forgot. The special training for the second Awakening can actually have a second stage to effectively improve your control over your bodies."
"Huh?"
The two girls were deceiving, their faces paling with fright.
A moment later.
Two exceptionally talented, beautiful, and perfectly proportioned young girls were tied with hemp ropes and thrown into the sea by Feng Zaixing, dangling behind the star luo ship to enjoy the beating of the waves.
Gu Yue gripped the hemp rope binding Naer and showed a most delighted smile, "silver-haired dummy, you've finally met your day!"
Naer choked on some water under the sea and shouted, "That hateful stinking Senior Martial Brother could even lay a hand on his own Junior Sister! Gu Yue, don't be so smug, your turn will come sooner or later!"
Gu Yue smiled, "0（∩—∩）0 Haha~"
Yuanen Yehui was enduring the wave strikes personally controlled by Feng Zaixing. She felt like her Titan Giant Ape was about to evolve into an amphibious ape and cried out, "Teacher, please be gentler and slower. Your Disciple is delicate and weak, I can't take it—"
Feng Zaixing's heart was as hard as steel and remained unmoved. While ruthlessly destroying the flowers, he encouraged them loudly, "Junior Sister, Disciple, our Body Sect's tradition is to torment!"
"If you can one day become stronger than me, I'll welcome you to throw me into the sea and sort me out!"
"You said it!" The two girls simultaneously had this thought in their hearts.
Time flew by, and the outline of the Star Luo Continent gradually appeared before the eyes of the passengers on the star Luo ship.
The Sun Moon Federation Exchange Delegation disembarked.
