Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen Soul Masters attacked simultaneously.

Zhao Wuji immediately used his second soul skill, transforming his hands into bear paws.

Mighty Vajra Palm!

This single strike blasted away two Soul Masters, giving Ning Xingchen an escape route.

"Let's go quickly," Zhao Wuji said.

"Thank you!" Ning Xingchen ran out immediately.

Just as Ning Xingchen left, she heard a Soul Master from the other side say...

"Kill him!"

Ning Xingchen

"What are you doing? This is none of my business."

"It's your own fault for hearing things you shouldn't have," a Soul Emperor-level Soul Master said as he approached Ning Xingchen.

Something I shouldn't have heard?

Are you afraid I'll ruin the reputation of the Wuhun Hall branch master of Zhanghagendas City?

"But I didn't hear anything just now," Ning Xingchen said, feigning innocence.

"Only the dead can put our minds at ease."

This tall, thin Soul Emperor looked down on Ning Xingchen, who didn't even have a Martial Soul attached to him, thinking he could kill Ning Xingchen with a single punch using only his physical body.

Just as he got close enough to throw a punch at Ning Xingchen, Ning Xingchen took out a longsword from his soul tool.

This longsword was forged later using materials obtained from Gengxin City. A total of ten swords were forged, with Ning Xingchen carrying two of them and giving the rest to Ning Dingling.

The sword may be nameless, but it is far from simple.

Even with Sword Douluo's full strength, it would be difficult to destroy, demonstrating its incredible sturdiness.

brush……

"you……"

"No, that's not possible..."

Before he could finish speaking, a large amount of blood gushed from his neck, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Good job, young man, watch this."

Zhao Wuji used his fifth soul skill, Gravity Compression, and the soul masters in front of him were subjected to immense pressure from all directions, causing their bodies to uncontrollably rush towards Zhao Wuji.

The next moment, Zhao Wuji rushed out and grabbed one of the men by the neck.

With a snap, another Soul Emperor perished.

"Kill them, I'll kill them. They're hard to catch alive, but dead ones are fine too."

Ning Xingchen originally didn't want to get involved in this mess, but these people wanted to kill him.

With his longsword raised, Ning Xingchen charged forward.

brush……

Ah!

Ning Xingchen's swordsmanship was virtually unchallenged among this group of Soul Emperors.

Even with their soul skills, they were shattered by his powerful sword, and he killed three people in the blink of an eye.

Ning Xingchen said, "You use your soul skill to control their actions, and I will kill them."

"Great!" Zhao Wuji was overjoyed, as he had unexpectedly encountered a hidden master.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji's gravity enhancement skill came into play.

Although Ning Xingchen was also affected by the increased gravity, his physical strength, which was roughly at the level of a Soul Douluo, was minimally affected.

Swish swish...

Zhao Wuji only felt several afterimages appear before his eyes, and the dozen or so people who were chasing him had all been killed and fell to the ground, making him gasp in shock.

Whose genius soul master is this? He's practically a god of death.

After killing someone, Ning Xingchen still habitually wiped the body clean.

They picked up a few soul tools, but unfortunately, none of the dozen or so Soul Emperors possessed soul bones.

"Hello, my name is Zhao Wuji. I thought I would be a burden to you, but I didn't expect you to be so strong."

“My name is Meteor!” Ning Xingchen said.

"A shooting star?" Zhao Wuji asked in confusion.

“Little Brother Meteor is venturing into the world of Soul Masters all by himself! How about we team up?” Zhao Wuji suggested.

"Not for now." Ning Xingchen was going to find Medicine God Valley, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better. It was better to go alone than to travel with Zhao Wuji.

Seeing that he had been rejected, Zhao Wuji seemed to grit his teeth, as if he had made some kind of decision, and said, "I, Zhao Wuji, am willing to follow you and explore the continent together."

Follow? Then the definition is different.

However, Ning Xingchen still refused, saying, "I don't need it, and do you even know who I am?"

Zhao Wuji thought about it; this was a rare opportunity.

This young man, at his current age, can instantly kill more than a dozen Soul Emperors.

Even with his help, there is absolutely no one else on the continent who could do this.

This young man will surely have a place among the future strongmen of the continent.

If I could follow him when he was young, it might be a great opportunity, but if I miss this chance, I'll never have another one.

Perhaps this is a great opportunity to change my life of wandering.

"Who you are is not important. What I value more is your potential. Besides, you just saved me and got me out of trouble. I owe you a favor. Therefore, I am willing to follow and be loyal to you! I will never betray you in this life." Zhao Wuji actually gave Ning Xingchen a standard Soul Master salute.

In fact, Ning Xingchen's actions just now, and the fact that he was allowed to leave, revealed his character. This was the biggest reason why Zhao Wuji made this decision.

"This……"

Ning Xingchen thought about Zhao Wuji's future and decided to follow Flander's side.

What good resources could Shrek Academy possibly have in that remote, impoverished environment?

Yet he still managed to cultivate to the level of a Soul Douluo, and was quite strong at that level.

If I had arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School earlier and received some resources, I might have had a chance to try and get a title in the future.

Furthermore, considering that he was willing to risk his life to protect the Seven Devils in front of the Titan Giant Ape, it shows that he is not a bad person and can be absorbed into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"I'll give you a chance, but I can't tell you my true identity yet. I'll tell you when you've completely gained my trust," Ning Xingchen said calmly.

Ning Xingchen made things clear beforehand, since Zhao Wuji was a straightforward person and he wouldn't beat around the bush.

“It’s alright, I’m willing to serve you as my master!” Zhao Wuji said. He knew that he couldn’t gain Ning Xingchen’s trust at first, and that trust needed to be built up little by little.

“Then you can come with me,” Ning Xingchen said.

"Yes, Master!" Zhao Wuji said excitedly, because he felt that he would definitely witness a miracle in the future, and there would be a part of this miracle that belonged to him.

"Let's still call him Young Master!"

"Yes, young master!"

Chapter 71 Iron Wolf Mercenary Group! Slaying Two Soul Saints!

It's possible that Ning Xingchen knew about Zhao Wuji through novels in her previous life, which is why she agreed to let him follow her.

"Young Master, where are we going now?" Zhao Wuji asked.

"We'll go to the Star Luo Empire, but we need to go to the Nebula Soul Hunter Town first," Ning Xingchen said. The search for Medicine God Valley couldn't be delayed, and they couldn't ignore Ah Yin's whereabouts.

"it is good!"

"Zhao Wuji, what level are you now?" Ning Xingchen asked.

"I just reached level 63 a few days ago, what about you, young master?" Zhao Wuji said with considerable confidence, even though he was only thirty-five years old.

"Really? That's not bad. My current soul power is also level 63," Ning Xingchen said in a low voice.

"Young Master, you're only a teenager, I'm already thirty-five!"

You don't know until you compare, and the comparison is shocking. Zhao Wuji thought that he already thought Ning Xingchen was a genius enough, but he didn't expect that his talent was beyond his reach.

In comparison, he was like a piece of trash.

Zhao Wuji is now thirty-five years old. Ning Xingchen remembers that he appeared when Tang San and the others were twelve years old and entered Shrek Academy. At that time, Zhao Wuji was over fifty years old.

If we calculate based on the current timeline, there are still seven or eight years until Tang San is born, which means there are still about nineteen years until he makes his appearance.

A level 76 Soul Saint at the age of 52 or 73, if given enough resources, should be able to reach level 80 and become a Soul Douluo without much trouble.

Then Zhao Wuji seemed to turn on his talkative mode, starting to tell Ning Xingchen about his experiences as a Soul Master over the years, as if he was eager for Ning Xingchen to know his past and desperately hoped that Ning Xingchen could trust him as soon as possible.

With Zhao Wuji by their side, the two quickly arrived at the Nebula Soul Hunter Town, dozens of kilometers away!

"Help me ask around in Nebula Town if anyone has seen this woman. She looks about sixteen or seventeen years old and is wearing a blue dress." Ning Xingchen took out a drawing, which was a portrait of Ah Yin.

This was a copy made by Ning Xingchen on the spot. It was only a rough sketch, about 70-80% similar, but the distinctive blue clothes and age were the key features.

Zhao Wuji took the painting and then began to inquire in Nebula Town. The two split up to search.

After wandering around Nebula Town several times and asking no fewer than a hundred people, no one had seen Ah Yin.

Helpless, Ning Xingchen had no choice but to give up and leave with Zhao Wuji.

But just a dozen kilometers after they left the town, Ning Xingchen stopped.

“Come out!” Ning Xingchen suddenly said.

"Someone is chasing us?" Zhao Wuji looked around, but he couldn't sense anything.

"Good lad, we didn't find this guy called Fudo Myoo, but you found him first." The two men who caught up with us were actually in their fifties.

"Young Master, you must leave quickly! These two are probably after me. One has a soul power of level 73, and the other has a soul power of level 72." Zhao Wuji said, then stood in front of Ning Xingchen.
