Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 252 — Ah! Nature's Gift!

As Nana brushed past Qian Lingyun, she discovered that a thin, bamboo-like, jade-like, and deep-colored unidentified object had appeared in her arms.

She looked at Qian Lingyun in surprise, but Qian Lingyun simply smiled and explained telepathically:

"This is a Celestial-grade Ink Jade Divine Bamboo. Absorbing it will greatly enhance the strength of your Wraith Martial Soul. It may even increase your physical attack capabilities on top of its original focus on mental attacks."

"As far as I know, the vengeful spirit's attack is both mental and physical damage. Once successfully absorbed, your melee ability will be significantly enhanced. Sharpness specialization can greatly enhance the combat power of your martial spirit itself."

"Thank you, Master," Nana replied, carrying Yueyue towards the inner room.

"So you're the saintess of the sect?" Wu Yun stood in front of Wu Yu, staring coldly at Qian Lingyun, and asked with an unfriendly smirk, "Why did you have my sister call me here?"

"Let me make this clear from the start: if you're just making fun of us, don't say I'm disrespecting you, the saintess!"

After speaking, Wu Yun pulled Wu Yu to stand aside. Her actions and tone were so gentle that they were completely different from her fierce and menacing demeanor just moments before.

Another sister-obsessed guy!

Qian Lingyun mentally grumbled a few times, then explained somewhat awkwardly, "I brought you some good stuff, I believe you'll be interested."

Wu Yu and Wu Yun didn't speak, they just nodded and hummed in agreement, then looked at Qian Lingyun with a deadpan expression.

"Do you guys know this guy?"

Qian Lingyun pointed to the ground with her right hand and chuckled. A gray light flashed, and a group of scum with their limbs pierced fell to the ground one after another.

The leader of them is a heavyweight.

His massive body even kicked up a cloud of dust when it crashed to the ground.

When the first few people appeared, Wu Yu and Wu Yun were able to stand by and watch with perfectly normal composure, wondering what Qian Lingyun was up to.

Seeing that Wu Yun and Wu Yu were completely calm, Qian Lingyun knew that these guys were probably just lackeys who followed Feng Ling the fat man in committing evil deeds.

But the moment Feng Ling, the fat man, cried out and looked up at Wu Yu, the two nearly identical soul power fluctuations surged instantly, reaching the edge of going berserk, and even showing signs of rising.

Intense killing intent and terrifying mental fluctuations instantly swept across the entire mountain, and even the originally bright sky dimmed a bit at this moment.

Wu Yun scanned Feng Ling up and down with her bloodshot crimson eyes, and said awkwardly in her slightly hoarse voice, "Oh, it really has been a long time!"

Although Wu Yun's tone was calm, anyone could hear the hysteria in it. On the other hand, Wu Yu, who was standing to the side, could no longer contain her resentment. She grabbed one of Feng Ling's lackeys and crushed every bone in his body into dust.

A pig-like scream echoed through the sky as Wu Yu tore the unfortunate man to pieces like dismantling a figurine.

Qian Lingyun, who was planning to have dinner later, couldn't bear to see such a horrible scene. She pulled Bai Yuan towards the inner room in the courtyard, reminding her before leaving:

"They're yours now, use them as you like! See you tomorrow!"

After the two left, the piercing screams and pleas outside the courtyard gate continued unabated, sending chills down Bai Yuan's spine. She couldn't help but ask:

"Holy Maiden! Just who are these guys you brought back? How come Wu Yun and those two..."

"Heh, what kind of background could they possibly have? They're just paying off debts they owed!"

Qian Lingyun didn't turn her head and stepped into a fairly tidy room with Bai Yuan.

The room wasn't large; it was more like a charming single room.

But though small, it has all the vital organs.

The room was fully equipped with all kinds of living facilities. It might be a bit cramped to squeeze four people in, but compared to the slaughterhouse-like environment outside, we might as well squeeze in... well, we'll just have to.

"It's so noisy!"

Even from a great distance, Bai Yuan could still hear the heart-wrenching screams. A faint "well" shape appeared on her forehead. She waved her hand, using her soul power to sever her connection with the outside world, before sighing, "The world is quiet now!"

"I wholeheartedly agree!"

Looking at Nana, who was enveloped in a hazy, dark aura, Qian Lingyun pulled up a chair and observed her closely for a while before sitting cross-legged and conjuring up some whimsical ideas with Electrolux in her mind.

When Nana awoke again, her absorption of the immortal essence was nearing its end. The once incredibly powerful dark light grew increasingly dim and weak until it completely disappeared from Nana's dantian.

"Awake!? Three hours, a bit slower than I predicted." Qian Lingyun remained casually reclined in her chair, her nimble fingers idly fiddling with a gleaming gold soul coin. She then asked, "How are you feeling? Any changes in your soul power and martial soul!?"

Nana closed her eyes and sensed for a while, but finally shook her head and whispered, "I can't explain the changes in my martial soul, but my soul power has indeed increased by about three to four levels. I only need one soul ring to become a Soul King."

"Your Martial Soul hasn't changed at all?" Qian Lingyun lowered her legs from behind, stood up while holding onto the table beside her, and asked with a frown, "Stand up and show me your Martial Soul!"

"Yes," Nana replied, and then stood up.

"Hey, have you grown taller again?" Bai Yuan stood at the front door, staring blankly at Nana's ankles and belly button that were showing as she grew taller.

Looking down at her feet, Nana couldn't help but stick out her tongue, blinking and laughing, "It seems so... I think I've grown taller again!"

"My God, is there no law anymore?! You're already 1.83 meters tall and you can grow a second time, I bet you're 1.9 meters tall now!" Bai Yuan muttered, looking up at the 1.9-meter-tall 'little girl', feeling a surge of displeasure.

"Alright, alright, we'll measure your height later. Release your martial spirit!" Qian Lingyun interrupted the pointless conversation impatiently, tapping the table.

"Yes."

Seeing Qian Lingyun's cold gaze, Nana dared not be negligent.

Two yellow and two purple spirit rings floated up from Nana's feet, and her whole being changed as her spirit was released.

The once spirited and vigorous girl suddenly became somewhat unreal, and her whole body felt somewhat unnatural.

"Let me see..." Qian Lingyun narrowed her eyes and scanned Nana's entire body from head to toe. Finally, she focused her gaze on Nana's hands, which were emitting a faint, dark light.

Qian Lingyun hissed in a low voice, "Attack me with your bare hands!"

"Okay!" Nana responded subconsciously, raising her right arm high and slashing at Qian Lingyun with her claw.

Those were five dark, sharp blades of light. Nana's slender fingers were covered with a layer of black claw sheaths, and they unleashed a terrifying aura that stretched for more than two zhang in the air.

With a single swipe of its claw, it possessed the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.

At this moment, Nana was as terrifying as the infamous Ripper from Earth. She was completely ethereal, but her entire left arm was dyed the same color as the pitch-black hand.

Nana never expected that her palms could suddenly possess such a terrifying attack.

But what she didn't expect was that Qian Lingyun stood still and caught her grab with her scythe-like arm blades.

This is a head-on collision with no fancy moves whatsoever. On one side is the immense power granted by the celestial item to the martial soul after its second awakening, and on the other side is an external soul bone of divine equipment level.

The moment the two collided, their energies produced a clang, like the sound of metal striking metal.

Immediately afterwards, a phantom figure was sent flying backward and crashed directly into the wall of the room.

"By the standards of a Soul King, its power is... not bad, and its sharpness is not weaker than a level 6 melee soul tool."

Qian Lingyun used her soul power to lift up the grimacing Nana. She then instructed Bai Yuan beside her, "Please trouble you to catch a fire-attribute soul beast that is about 10,000 years old and a dark-attribute soul beast that is about 15,000 years old tomorrow."

"Are you planning to make this girl's fifth spirit ring last 15,000 years, while that girl's fourth spirit ring lasts 10,000 years?" Bai Yuan pointed at Yueyue and asked in a low voice, "A 10,000-year fourth spirit ring, is that...?"

"It's alright, I know what I'm doing," Qian Lingyun said expressionlessly.

Seeing Qian Lingyun's reaction, Bai Yuan had no choice but to nod and agree.
