Douluo Dragon King: Doumu's Blessing, I Am the Star Lord

Soul power advancement, level fourteen!

Qian Gu Qingfeng asked curiously, "Xing Ci, what is your first soul skill?" Qian Gu Die Ting and Xia Zheng Leng also looked at him expectantly.

Qian Gu Xing Ci didn't say much. His soul power surged suddenly, and his meridians transformed into the celestial orbits, with the starry sky appearing behind him.

The voice was clear and bright as it introduced: "The first soul skill, Tian Shu, and the effects of the Xing Shu Dao Meridian soul skills are mainly amplification. However, some martial soul talents will be awakened in the future."

Qian Gu Qingfeng sighed, "Martial Soul talent, even top experts have very few who possess it."

Qian Gu Die Ting then said, "The people of the Body Sect are pursuing the amplification of their own soul skills, and your situation is just right."

Moreover, the twin martial souls complement each other, one enhancing the other's power and the other boosting the attack.

"But Xingci, is there a big difference between day and night?"

“Grandpa, the sun you told me about is also part of the stars, and those stars are just invisible during the day,” Qian Gu Xing Ci said.

"You can draw upon the power of the sun, and even all the stars invisible to the naked eye?" Qian Gu Die Ting's pupils shrank, his face filled with disbelief.

“Yes,” Qian Gu Xing Ci affirmed.

Qian Gu Die Ting sighed, "It seems that the quality of astrological martial souls on the continent is still not good enough, which is why people mistakenly believe that astrological martial souls can only unleash their full power at night."

Changing the subject, he looked at Qian Gu Xing Ci and asked, "So, what kind of spirit do you want for your Panlong Staff martial spirit?"

“Grandpa, none of these spirits are suitable for me. I want to see the Unyielding Spirit,” Qian Gu Xing Ci said.

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Die Ting's expression hardened slightly. Just as he was about to speak, Xia Zheng's cold and worried voice rang out first: "Xing Ci, Mom doesn't want you to take this risk."

She reached out and gently stroked her son's cheek, her fingertips carrying a tender warmth, but her eyes were full of love and concern. "As a mother, I am proud of your strong will, but I am also extremely afraid that you will get hurt because of it. There are very few cases of unyielding spirits successfully absorbing."

As soon as Xia Zheng Leng finished speaking, Qian Gu Qing Feng stepped forward, gently put his arm around his wife's shoulder, turned to look at Qian Gu Xing Ci, and said in a calm and gentle tone, which was both considerate and tolerant: "Xing Ci, you don't need to rush to make a decision."

You can take a look at the Unyielding Spirits to see if there are any suitable for you. Most of them are powerful and have extraordinary talents. Even if they are only a hundred years old, they can communicate with the Spirit Master.

Our main approach will be communication, trying our best to persuade the spirit to merge with you. If that fails, we'll give up.

Upon hearing this, Qian Gu Die Ting slowly nodded, expressing his agreement: "Qing Feng is right, Xing Ci. Since you have made up your mind, let's see what the indomitable soul can do. But you must remember that safety should always come first, and we cannot force things."

After saying that, Qian Gu Die Ting gently tapped the soul guidance control panel beside him.

In an instant, the numerous soul-guided light screens in mid-air above the treasure vault slowly switched. The light screens that originally projected various top-tier soul spirits were all replaced with images of soul spirits radiating a special aura.

These are the indomitable souls treasured by the Spirit Pagoda.

Each spirit on the light screen exudes an aura of unruliness; even though they are sealed within the light screen, one can still feel their inherent indomitable spirit and strength.

Qian Gu Xing Ci's gaze swept intently across the light screens of numerous indomitable souls, carefully sensing the aura of each soul.

A soul-guided light screen suddenly attracted all his attention.

On the screen of light, a spirit beast that resembled both a lion and a dog stood quietly, its entire body covered in dazzling golden fur, and its head adorned with unique black ghost face patterns—it was the Golden Lion Mastiff.

The ultimate superhuman monster from the original work!

Qian Gu Xing Ci's eyes lit up.

He turned to his elders, his voice firm yet filled with joy: "Grandpa, Mom and Dad, I've made my choice! It's this nine-hundred-year-old golden-haired lion mastiff!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qian Gu Die Ting raised his hand, gathered a wisp of soul power, and lightly touched the soul guide light screen that was projecting the golden-haired lion mastiff.

In an instant, a dazzling white light flashed, and as the light and shadow converged, a golden-haired lion-mastiff, half a meter tall and one meter long, appeared in the center of the treasure vault. Having just been released from the light barrier, its eyes held a bewildered look, and its head swayed slightly. Its sharp amber eyes slowly swept over the four people before it. When its gaze landed on Qian Gu Die Ting and Qian Gu Qing Feng, its nose twitched slightly, as if sensing the same indomitable will within them. Its gaze sharpened slightly, wary but not immediately launching an attack.

Without further hesitation, Qian Gu Xing Ci released the Panlong Staff martial spirit with a thought.

A purple-gold light burst forth from his palm, and the staff slowly condensed into shape. The staff was covered with fine dragon scales of the Demon-Slaying Dragon, and each scale seemed to have stars flowing on it. A pale purple dragon soul phantom coiled around the staff, agile yet majestic, domineering yet sacred aura that instantly swept through the entire Soul Treasure Vault, subtly confronting the arrogant aura of the golden-haired lion-mastiff.

Qian Gu Die Ting, standing to the side, finally saw the complete form of Qian Gu Xing Ci's Panlong Staff. A sense of suppression originating from the martial soul's source rushed over him, causing the Battle Heaven Douluo to slightly turn his head.

But instead of being displeased, a hint of wild joy flashed in his eyes. He stroked his beard and nodded slowly, then carefully examined the Panlong Staff. There were three eyes on the dragon's head, and the third eye on its forehead was slightly open, exuding a chilling pressure. His tone was full of praise: "Good! The strongest Panlong Staff martial spirit of the Qian Gu family!"

At that moment, the golden-haired lion-mastiff's ferocity was fully unleashed by the dragon's might of the coiled dragon staff.

A black and gold aura suddenly exploded around him, and his domineering domain suddenly expanded, sweeping in all directions with an incomparably powerful aura. The soul power within the treasure vault instantly surged wildly.

It raised its head and roared, its amber eyes filled with boundless fighting spirit, its golden hair standing on end, its gaze fixed on the ancient star.

Qian Gu Xing Ci remained unmoved, not retreating an inch, but instead slamming the Panlong Staff heavily onto the ground.

A muffled thud made the floor of the treasure vault tremble slightly. The gentle starlight around him vanished, replaced by an indomitable will that had defied fate and refused to be bound by destiny for two lifetimes.

This will burst forth as if it were a tangible entity, colliding head-on with the domineering and ruthless intent of the Overlord Domain. The clash between these two extreme wills even caused subtle ripples to appear in the space within the treasure vault.

At the extreme moment of this clash of wills, his body suddenly erupted with an unprecedented purple-gold light, and a power originating from the source of his martial soul was awakened.

In an instant, the black and gold aura of the domineering domain was instantly dispersed, and the entire scene of the Soul Treasure Vault faded away, transforming into an endless and profound starry sky.

High in the sky, a magnificent Purple Star hangs high, surrounded and guarded by countless stars. The flowing star river carries the supreme order and divine might, and every wisp of star power is perfectly connected with the will and soul power of the ancient star verses.

He stood in the center of the starry sky, like the ruler of the celestial sphere, his unyielding pride blending with the majestic power of the Ziwei Emperor Star. He possessed both an indomitable spirit and the imperial demeanor to govern all living beings.

Zhongtian Ziwei Domain!

The three people, Qian Gu Die Ting and Qian Gu Die Ting, who were not far away, froze on the spot and held their breath.

"A congenital domain!" Qian Gu Die Ting's voice trembled, his eyes filled with extreme shock and ecstasy. "To be born with a domain, such talent is extremely rare in the continent's ten thousand-year history."

Meanwhile, the golden-haired lion-mastiff in the center of the domain was already trembling violently, and its dominance over the domain had completely collapsed.

It stared blankly at the starry sky and the Purple Star Emperor high in the sky, its nose twitching wildly. It not only felt the indomitable will that was similar to itself, or even more powerful, but also felt the domineering and majestic power that ruled over all directions in this starry sky.

The Ziwei Emperor Star is the master of the central sky, just as its golden-haired lion is the king of beasts. This resonance deep in the soul is more intense than any clash of wills.

Its black and gold aura flickered, and the struggle in its amber eyes faded away, leaving only extreme shock and complete submission.

After a long while, it suddenly raised its head and let out a high-pitched and passionate roar towards the ancient star in the center of the starry sky.

In this roar, there was no longer any hostility or arrogance, only the recognition and submission of soul resonance.

It slowly lowered its head, which had never bowed to any being, and walked step by step to Qian Gu Xing Ci, gently nuzzling the back of his hand holding the staff with its head.

"You've tamed the golden-haired lion mastiff, Xingci, you did it!" Qian Gu Qingfeng's eyes were full of praise, and his voice was filled with excitement.

Xia Zheng's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled, and a smile appeared on her lips. Qian Gu Die Ting burst into laughter, praising repeatedly, exclaiming that the Qian Gu family had produced a true prodigy.

Qian Gu Xing Ci's fingertips brushed across the lion-dog's head. With a thought, the Zhongtian Ziwei Domain slowly contracted, and the countless stars condensed into specks of starlight, falling back into his body.

He activated the Coiling Dragon Staff once more, and all the star patterns on the staff lit up, perfectly echoing the phantom of the dragon soul and the aura of the golden-haired lion-mastiff.

The golden-haired lion-mastiff nuzzled his trouser leg affectionately, then transformed into a streak of black and gold light, merging directly into the Panlong Staff.

A domineering yet pure power surged into his meridians, completely merging with the indomitable will of the ancient star and the power of the Ziwei star, instantly making his soul power foundation even more solid and robust.

The staff shimmered with a halo of black and gold and purple-gold, making the dragon's head and heavenly eye even more agile and awe-inspiring, with faint galaxies flowing within it.

The moment the fusion was successful, a century-old spirit ring slowly rose from the Panlong Staff and finally hovered at the feet of Qian Gu Xing Ci. This yellow spirit ring was dazzlingly bright. Not only was it engraved with intricate star patterns, but it was also surrounded by a lifelike golden lion-mastiff totem. The intensity of the spirit ring far exceeded that of ordinary century-old spirit rings, and it even faintly emitted a hint of purple.

Chapter 3: The First Battle of Ascension, Lei Xian

Qian Gu Xing Ci felt his soul power surging like a geyser within him, reaching level seventeen!

Qian Gu Qingfeng looked at Qian Gu Xingci, his tone filled with suggestion and expectation: "Xingci, why don't you go to the Spirit Ascension Platform and try out your newly acquired soul skill?"

“Okay.” Qian Gu Xing Ci responded, his voice clear and bright, his eyes full of youthful eagerness.

Qian Gu Qingfeng raised his hand and pressed the soul guidance button next to him, and a metal container slid out from the wall with a sound.

He stepped forward, his voice filled with concern and a hint of worry: "Xingci, the Elementary Spirit Ascension Platform you are going to is a training ground for Soul Masters below the fourth-ring Soul Master level. It mainly contains ten-year and hundred-year Soul Beasts, but thousand-year Soul Beasts are not uncommon."

I know your spiritual power has reached the Spiritual Connection Realm, so theoretically you shouldn't be in any life-threatening danger.

He patted Xingci's shoulder gently: "But the sea of ​​spirit is fragile. If it encounters an overly powerful impact, it can easily leave indelible wounds. You must be careful in everything you do."

Qian Gu Xing Ci raised his hand to take the signal device handed to him, patted his chest, and smiled, revealing the determination of a young man: "Don't worry, I would never joke about my own safety."

After saying that, he stepped into the coffin-shaped altar chamber.

The metal hull gleamed with a cold, hard silver light, and the interior space was designed to fit the body perfectly, just enough for a person to lie down. As soon as he settled down, the heavy alloy hatch slowly closed, shutting out the outside light and shadow, leaving only a faint, cool white light source illuminating the interior.

The journey to ascension has officially begun!

Primary Ascension Platform

Qian Gu Xing Ci slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a lush and dense forest—tall ancient trees pierced the sky, and layers of deep green leaves covered the sky, leaving only dappled beams of light that cast shimmering spots of light on the moss-covered ground.

"This is the Ascension Platform..." Qian Gu Xing Ci murmured softly, his fingertips unconsciously brushing against the thick, cold pine trunk beside him. The bark was rough and hard, with a real, icy touch. If he didn't know that he was accessing it through brainwaves, he would almost think that he was really in a primeval forest.

He composed himself and randomly chose a direction to walk steadily forward.

Outside, Qian Gu Die Ting and his two companions stared intently at the soul guidance screen, their eyes following the figure of the boy who was moving through the woods.

Suddenly, a slight tremor came from the soles of his feet, and Qian Gu Xing Ci suddenly leaped into the air, his reaction as swift as lightning.

The next second, a spider covered with a yellowish-brown carapace suddenly sprang out from the ground, its eight legs opening and closing—it was a hundred-year-old cave spider!

Qian Gu Xing Ci's eyes were calm, his lips slightly curved, carrying a hint of indifference—the Cave Demon Spider was really not worth mentioning in this era.

With a thought, his Martial Soul Star Pivot Meridian instantly possessed him, and his meridians seemed to transform into dazzling star trails, with pure stellar power surging and flowing within his body. His palm seemed to be forged from a galaxy, and he threw a punch straight at the Earth Demon Spider.

"Hiss—" The cave spider let out a mournful cry. Its hard shell was cracked. In desperation, the spider's spinnerets suddenly opened, and it spun out spider silk to form a cage around the ancient star.

It's just a simple mobilization of the power of the stars, coupled with the powerful physical body brought by the Star Pivot Dao Meridian, yet it possesses such combat strength.

A flash of purple light appeared in Qian Gu Xing Ci's palm, and the Panlong Staff appeared in response. A soul ring, yellowish-purple, slowly circled the staff, shining brightly.

"First Soul Skill, Mengzhang Body Suppression!"

Meng Zhanglong's physical body was forged with his strength, making his physique resemble the remains of an ancient dragon!

Immediately afterwards, the Panlong Staff suddenly enlarged several times in his hand, the star patterns on the staff lit up, and carrying the might of the evil-destroying dragon, it rushed straight towards the underground demon spider with a heavy sound of breaking through the air, like Mount Tai pressing down.

"boom!"

With a dull thud, the enlarged Panlong Staff slammed into the Earth Demon Spider, crushing its body into the soil. The spider instantly shattered, transforming into a ball of pure energy that slowly merged into Qian Gu Xing Ci's body.

Outside, Qian Gu Qingfeng leaned forward slightly, staring intently at the screen, his eyes filled with astonishment. His voice unconsciously rose a few decibels, unable to hide his surprise: "Can twin martial souls be activated simultaneously now? It seems that Xing Ci's two martial souls have an extremely high compatibility!"

Xia Zheng's cold eyes were filled with pride and satisfaction. She raised her hand to cover her lips, her eyebrows curved, and she nodded gently, her smile almost overflowing.

Qian Gu Die Ting's fingers, which were stroking his beard, suddenly paused. A surge of intense joy welled up in his eyes, but then he slowly became thoughtful. His brows furrowed slightly, and his fingertips gently stroked his beard as he stared at the screen, seemingly considering something.

Qian Gu Xing Ci withdrew his martial spirit, the starlight receding into his body, and continued walking deeper into the dense forest. Reaching a patch of withered yellow bushes, he suddenly heard a soft rustling sound. The sound grew closer, carrying a chilling, fishy odor. He paused slightly, his gaze sharpening, but his expression remained calm.

Suddenly, the bushes were smashed open, and a ten-foot-long, dark green datura snake, its forked purple forked tongue flicking, charged towards him like an arrow released from a bow. The purple patterns on its belly gleamed coldly in the light and shadow. Its gaping maw was wide open, and its white fangs were coated with viscous venom, which sizzled and corroded the soil as it hit the ground.

Qian Gu Xing Ci neither dodged nor flinched, his expression as calm as a mountain. Suddenly, the first soul ring of the Xing Shu Dao Maiden lit up above his head, spreading out a pale purple-gold light.
