Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Mysterious Heavy Ruler

Chapter 70 No Distance

After the Dark Demon God Tiger died, a dark soul ring slowly rose up, but Xiao Yi did not rush to absorb it.

He had been waiting for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's natal pill, which was the true essence, the very pill that had created powerful beings in another world, enabling him to first become a first-level deity and then a God King.

Without further ado, a little tiger was about to escape the dimensional rift with its natal bead in its mouth when Xiao Yi grabbed it. Looking at the black bead in his hand, Xiao Yi immediately went to the corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

Since the soul ring would dissipate within an hour, Xiao Yi had plenty of time. He figured that the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's bloodline was so strong and its soul beast level was quite high, so it was likely that it would drop a soul bone.

Moreover, his death was so humiliating. He was injured and tortured by Dugu Bo. When he was about to activate the life-and-death arena, Xiao Yi didn't fall for it and finally killed him with Xiao Yi's sword energy.

"Not bad luck, it's a left arm bone." Xiao Yi took out a left arm bone from the left foreleg of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

"How about we go all out?" Xiao Yi looked at the arm bone, inner core, and soul ring in his hand.

"Xiao Yi, what are you thinking about? Why aren't you absorbing the soul ring?" Dugu Bo asked, seeing Xiao Yi lost in thought.

"I'm wondering whether I should absorb this inner core, soul ring, and soul bone together," Xiao Yi replied.

"Forget it, this inner core doesn't look like anything good, why would I absorb it?" Dugu Bo said without thinking.

"That's true. I have a divinely bestowed soul ring, and I'm currently favored by the God of Asura. I'll be participating in the God's Trial in the future, so there's no need to take such a big risk just to increase my age limit," Xiao Yi thought to himself.

Xiao Yi then sat cross-legged on the ground and began to absorb the soul rings and soul bones.

Because the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul was inside the Evil God Pearl, and part of it had been corrupted by Dugu Bo, there was no soul shock when absorbing the soul ring.

Although there was no soul-shaking, the evil power of the Dark Demon God Tiger was not so easy to subdue.

The cold soul power of the soul ring entering Xiao Yi's body impacted his body, forcing him to use the Killing God Domain and sword intent to suppress the evil soul power.

……

three days later.

It took Xiao Yi three days to absorb this soul ring, during which the enormous evil soul power almost overwhelmed him.

Finally, by using the Killing God Domain and Blade Intent to transform the evil soul power into one's own soul power, the mission is accomplished.

On the morning of the third day, Xiao Yi woke up from his meditation.

"Xiao Yi, why did it take so long to absorb the soul ring this time?" Dugu Bo asked.

"The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul power was too evil, so I spent time transforming its evil attributes into soul power that suited me," Xiao Yi replied.

"What level did you reach after absorbing the spirit ring and spirit bone?"

"Because I was already level 60 a year ago, I have accumulated three levels of soul power in this year, plus one level of 90,000-year whale glue, two levels of this soul ring, and two levels of a left arm bone. Now I am level 68. It can be said that the Soul Emperor is about to be finished. The remaining Soul Saint only requires a lot of effort."

"My soul skill is to use my mental power to sense spatial anchor points. I can flash to any place that my mental power can reach at any time. If I flash behind an enemy and hit him, I will leave a permanent mark on the enemy. I call it 'Distanceless'."

"As for the Soul Bone Skill, it is the Evil God's Guardian, a defensive Soul Skill."

Xiao Yi introduced Dugu Bo and the other person.

In fact, Xiao Yi felt that this was a bit too outrageous. This soul skill was similar to a ninjutsu called Flying Thunder God that he had seen in a movie in his previous life. It was a space-time skill.

"Wow, that's a spatial skill! It's terrifying!" Dugu Bo was shocked after hearing Xiao Yi's explanation.

It should be noted that the Bone Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School possesses a Bone Dragon martial soul, which has spatial attributes and is known as the most bizarre in the world.

"Actually, I think it's a bit outrageous. Now I have combat power, I have defense, and the only problem of speed has been solved," Xiao Yi said.

"Now that you two have finished hunting for your spirit rings, it's time to get ready to go back," Dugu Bo said.

The three then spent a week returning to Tiandou City.

"Oh dear, I've been away for half a month, enduring wind and rain every day. I definitely need to get some rest."

Dugu Yan spoke as soon as she arrived home.

"Then Yan Yan, you should rest well. I need to talk to Xiao Yi about something." Dugu Bo saw that Xiao Yi seemed to have something he wanted to say to him, so he told Dugu Yan to go and rest first.

"Alright, Grandpa, you can go ahead." Dugu Yan didn't care about any of that; she only cared about the safety of Xiao Yi and Dugu Bo.

At Dugu Bo's signal, Xiao Yi followed Dugu Bo outside.

"What's wrong?" Dugu Bo asked.

"Now Yan Yan and I are both Soul Emperors, and I'll be level 70 soon. The new Soul Master Competition will be in two years. I don't think Yan Yan and I are suitable to participate. After all, if we go up at our level, people will say we're bullying the kids," Xiao Yi said.

"Hmm, that's true. So, what are your thoughts now?"

"The Soul Master Competition is basically dominated by Soul Masters. It would be unfair for us to participate. When I have time, I'll go find that Crown Prince to help me sort out some matters at the academy."

"Hmm, that works too. But what about the remaining members? There are only five of us now."

"Let them find two similar players themselves. Anyway, the whole team has been trained very well by Mu Yun, and I believe they can cooperate well."

"As for me and Yan Yan, I will be cultivating my own soul skills at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well. Yan Yan will cultivate at home most of the time. If she misses me, she can come find me."

"Just do as you say, go find the Crown Prince."

……

Tian Dou City, Crown Prince's Residence.

After Xiao Yi finished talking with Dugu Bo, he headed towards the Crown Prince's residence. When he arrived at the gate, he showed his token to the guard and went inside.

The person in the study at that moment was not Qian Renxue, but someone Xiao Yi didn't recognize. Xiao Yi pushed open the door, looked at the person in front of him, and asked, "Who are you?"

"Oh, I am the young master's stand-in. The young master is currently cultivating in the secret chamber."

This person is Qian Renxue's stand-in. He is needed to appear when Qian Renxue is not around. Qian Renxue usually cultivates in a secret room. Xiao Yi always happens to run into Qian Renxue when he comes.

"Okay, I understand. You go ahead with your work. I'll go in by myself." Xiao Yi told the stand-in to do what he was supposed to do once he heard that Qian Renxue was in the secret room.

Xiao Yi then skillfully opened the mechanism of the secret room, and the bookshelf slowly pushed open to both sides.

As Xiao Yi walked into the passageway, he felt very strange.

"Why does everyone like escape rooms? Is it because escape rooms have a better atmosphere?"

Suddenly, he thought of a certain anonymous master in a secret chamber.

They soon arrived inside the secret chamber, where Qian Renxue was sitting cross-legged on the bed cultivating her soul power.

Qian Renxue seemed to sense someone entering and woke up from her meditation.

"Why are you here?" Qian Renxue asked in confusion.

"I just came back after hunting for spirit rings. My spirit power has reached level 68, so there's no point in staying at school. If I participate in the Spirit Master Competition, it would just be bullying kids, and there's no need for that."

"What? Level 68 already?" Qian Renxue was shocked.

"Hmm... I was stuck at level 60 for a year. The accumulated soul power and soul ring energy, plus the soul bone that exploded and the whale glue I consumed, brought me to level 68."

"Also, I plan to go into seclusion. I don't know how long it will take. I also want to help Dugu Yan graduate," Xiao Yi said.

"Okay, I understand. I'll have someone outside take care of it tomorrow."
