Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 496 Moon Blade

"Is this the power of the gods?"

Feeling the restless power within her body, Zhu Zhuqing was momentarily shocked by the sudden surge of power within her. It was as if she hadn't done anything to gain such immense power, and she felt extremely unfamiliar with controlling it.

Carefully sensing the Moon Blade in her hand, Zhu Zhuqing knew that she could not unleash its full power at the moment.

This is a magical artifact.

The first thing Zhu Zhuqing thought of was the Sea God Trident that Tang San obtained, which was a power that transcended the scope of Soul Masters.

After completing the eighth trial, Zhu Zhuqing's soul power level was only 95. It was only after choosing the ninth trial and awakening from the Xuanbing that the Xuanbing transformed into pure energy, raising her soul power level to 99. Even the process of mastering the Moon Blade, this divine weapon, was extremely smooth.

Was it a natural progression?

Zhu Zhuqing was self-aware. During the trials on Seagod Island, they ranked their talents. Compared to Tang San and Oscar, she and Ning Rongrong were somewhat inferior. However, Tang San's talent was so outstanding that he had to go through many hardships to gain the recognition of the Seagod Trident, a divine artifact.

How could someone whose talent is inferior to his so easily gain the recognition of the divine artifact, the Moon Blade?

"I am not an appendage; I will earn your approval through my own efforts."

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Moon Blade; she didn't need that kind of approval.

She trusted Tieli completely, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen the content of the ninth test, but she didn't want to be an appendage; she needed to gain recognition for herself.

"Isn't it great to be able to obtain such powerful strength so easily?"

The phantom within the sea of ​​spirit reappeared. This time, its appearance became much clearer, and a stunningly beautiful face could be seen amidst the blur.

“Power is something to be revered; it shouldn’t be so easily acquired and controlled. I want to start over on my own.”

"Are you sure?"

He was surprised by Zhu Zhuqing's answer, but a hint of relief could be seen in his eyes. As his successor, he certainly did not want his successor to lack reverence for power.

Knowing how to revere power is His most important requirement for His successors.

He was very satisfied with Zhu Zhuqing's performance.

By His standards, gaining inheritance and recognition is not such a simple matter.

Unfortunately, they lacked the conditions to match him in terms of status and power, and faced with a powerful and high-ranking god-king, they had no choice but to comply.

"I am sure."

Zhu Zhuqing's firm and steady answer pleased Him greatly.

The tenth spirit ring, which originally shone with silver-gold light, turned into a dull gray. The armor on his body was removed, and only the Moon Blade exuded a chilling aura.

The unique moonlight seemed to acknowledge Zhu Zhuqing's state of mind, but to gain the full recognition of the Moon Blade, state of mind alone was not enough.

"The newly born Thor? He's probably here to see you. Do you need to explain things to him?"

I'd better explain this, or I'll run into a lot of trouble. He thought to himself.

"it is good."

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at the blurry figure; the other person seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

If Tie Li can break the seal from the Xuanbing and obtain the pure energy transformed from the Xuanbing, it means that he has succeeded.

Unable to control the urge to meet him, and with the news that Tie Li was about to appear on Moon Spirit Island, his eagerness to see him grew even stronger. "Phew!"

Wielding the Moon Blade, Zhu Zhuqing returned to Moon Spirit Island and was able to sense the direction of Tie Li.

It seems that after this ordeal, the two have developed a connection that allows them to sense each other's changes.

"boom."

A bolt of lightning streaked down from the sky, and a figure emerged from within it.

The two had countless things to say, but when they met, they couldn't utter a single word.

In response to Tie Li, her tender, smooth arms wrapped around his waist, and her cold, aloof profile nestled against Tie Li's strong chest.

After a long while, inhaling the faint fragrance of each other's hair, the two reluctantly separated.

Only then did Tie Li notice the changes in Zhu Zhuqing.

She clearly possessed the aura of someone who had entered the divine realm, but why was her cultivation level still at level ninety-nine? And beside her was a divine artifact.

The Moon Blade, planted in the ground, exuded an aura that undoubtedly made it a divine artifact.

The moment Tieli became Thor, Thor's hammer was revitalized and once again became a super weapon of the super artifact rank.

Therefore, Tieli was extremely sensitive to the aura of the divine artifact.

Zhu Zhuqing's ability to master this divine artifact means that she has gained its approval, and she should have completed the ninth test and received the divine inheritance. So why is it different?
Sensing Tie Li's strange gaze, Zhu Zhuqing deliberately waited a while before explaining.

"This is my choice. If I suddenly gained such great power, I would feel uneasy and lost. I want to gain recognition for this power through my own efforts."

Zhu Zhuqing revealed her spirit ring configuration, which consisted of ten intertwined and shimmering spirit rings, except for the tenth spirit ring, which was a dull gray without any light.

The power of her tenth spirit ring was sealed. Zhu Zhuqing is still a level 99 Limit Douluo, but her power was forcibly increased by the energy transformed from Xuanbing.

If she were to face a powerhouse like Qian Daoliu, who is at the Limit Douluo level, she would definitely be no match for him. This power was not cultivated by her own hands, and she lacks the ability to control it.

Tie Li stroked her hair, assuring her that he would respect any choice she made.

"If you feel tired, you can give up. I will help you no matter what."

"Then I hope that if I encounter any danger during my assessment, you will not intervene. I want to rely on myself to get through the assessment."

Zhu Zhuqing spoke up, saying that because of the bond and connection between the two, Tie Li could sense Zhu Zhuqing's situation. If she failed the test, Zhu Zhuqing was willing to pay the price and did not want Tie Li to interfere.

But on this particular matter, Tie Li did not respond. If Zhu Zhuqing were to encounter any misfortune, Tie Li would burn his Thor's essence to break through the spatial constraints and stand in front of Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly hooked her arm around Tie Li's neck and left a lip print on his cheek.

The two had limited time on Moon Spirit Island, but they cherished every minute and second.

When Zhu Zhuqing got up to return to the trial grounds, it meant that the two would have to part ways again.

But during this separation, Zhu Zhuqing made a request to Tie Li, hoping that he could rescue her family or liberate the lineage of the Duke of Youming from the Star Luo Empire.

Tie Li informed Zhu Zhuqing of all the changes in the Star Luo Empire, and that the Star Crown Sect still needed the assistance of the Netherworld Duke to completely control the Star Luo Empire.

But now, the White Tiger Kingdom is going to attack the Star Luo Empire. With the help of the Seven Great Sects, the Star Luo Empire may not be a match for them. Under this pressure, they will be eager to take control of the Star Luo Empire.
