Chen Xin gradually calmed down, slowly raising his head. Besides his intent to kill Xu Sheng, there were also a few other emotions in his eyes...
He silently drew the Seven Kill Sword, gripping it tightly as he spoke to himself, "Kid, your name is Xu Sheng, right? I admit your talent is the best I've ever seen! At only a young age, you've already reached the level of a Titled Douluo..."
"If nothing goes wrong, in less than ten years, no one on the Continent will be your match!"
The corner of Xu Sheng's mouth twitched, "What's Chen Xin ranting about, are we going to fight or not?"
In his heart, he regarded this guy as a boss to gain experience from defeating...
If they didn't fight, it might take him a few more months to break through to level ninety-two...
Chen Xin suddenly grew more intense, his eyes flashing brightly...
"But! Since you wish to harm Ning Rongrong, I will definitely not spare you out of pity for talent!"
Xu Sheng silently concentrated, thinking to himself, "Then let me see just how much difference there is between a Peak Douluo at level 97 (some say level 96) and myself."
Having said this, Chen Xin had no intention of holding back...
His fourth soul ring lit up as he coldly shouted, "Fourth Soul Skill, Murderous Aura!"
The Seven Kill Sword in Chen Xin's hand was filled with a white glow, the edge extending to several meters in length, seemingly able to tear anything apart with its Sword Qi...
Xu Sheng's first soul ring lit up, "First Soul Skill, Bloody Begonia Blossom!"
The petals of the Nine-Hearted Begonia clustered together, spinning like a circular disc, cutting towards Chen Xin...
Seeing this, Chen Xin suddenly spat out a word, "Kill!"
He then fiercely swung the Seven Kill Sword diagonally towards Xu Sheng's position...
The several-meters-long Sword Qi collided with the spinning disc formed by the Nine-Hearted Begonia petals, sparking an astonishing flare...
With a "crack," the petals of the Nine-Hearted Begonia were instantly sliced in half by the sharp Sword Qi, continuing straight towards Xu Sheng...
Xu Sheng quickly leapt sideways, perfectly avoiding the Sword Qi's direct slash...
His breathing became more rapid, thinking to himself, "Whew, as expected from the extremely powerful Sword Douluo, easily piercing through the Nine-Hearted Begonia..."
This kind of attack must not hit! If he got hit, he might very well lose his ability to move entirely!
At that moment, he'd become a lamb awaiting slaughter!
But Chen Xin clearly didn't want to give him a chance to breathe, as his fifth soul ring lit up again...
"Fifth Soul Skill, Terrifying Presence!" Chen Xin controlled the sword, throwing it, as the original form of the Seven Kill Sword, causing one after another sharp illusionary Seven Kill Swords to manifest around...
An overwhelming number of Seven Kill Swords hovered in the air, surrounding Xu Sheng completely...
Xu Sheng squinted his eyes, "An area attack? Fourth Soul Skill, Blood Begonia's Command." With these words, his fourth soul ring lit up...
If it's an area attack, then the single-target damage surely wouldn't compare to the previous Sword Qi!
He wasn't entirely confident in his ability to block these overwhelming strikes from the Seven Kill Swords...
In the next moment, layer upon layer of shields infused with Nine-Hearted Begonia surrounded Xu Sheng...
Chen Xin observed this scene and nonchalantly said, "My attacks aren't so easily blocked!"
With a wave of his arm, countless Seven Kill Swords, already charged with a fierce intent to kill, bombarded Xu Sheng...
One sword after another struck the shield, causing it to dim slightly...
However, it wasn't just one Seven Kill Sword bombarding him, but almost hundreds!!
Under the bombardment of countless Seven Kill Swords, the shield made magnetic clashing sounds like iron colliding...
Seeing the shield dim to the point of losing luster, Xu Sheng frowned, focusing his gaze on Chen Xin ahead, "It's about to give in, I must stop her!"
When Xu Sheng's fifth soul ring lit up, a faint tearing sensation ran through his body...
He pursed his lips and extended his palm towards Chen Xin's figure, "Fifth Soul Skill, Bloody Poison Begonia!"
...
Chen Xin suddenly felt a bad premonition, noticing Xu Sheng's palm aimed at him, along with his fifth soul ring lighting up...
His expression turned grim as he urgently started maneuvering his body...
Thinking to himself, "As long as I move fast enough, this kid won't be able to lock onto my position!"
Little did he know, Xu Sheng had already seen through this tactic, and a subtle smile appeared on his lips...
Relying on speedy movement to avoid locking onto a position was indeed a good strategy...
But unfortunately, Xu Sheng's fifth soul skill was a locking technique!
Bloody Poison Begonia: Locking skill! It allows the Begonia flower to grow from within another person's blood, carrying deadly poison!
With a "whoosh," an array of pale green Nine-Hearted Begonia began to protrude slowly from Chen Xin's arm...
Chen Xin, who was in motion, suddenly felt dizzy, his face showing discomfort, "Not good! This kid's fifth soul skill can actually parasitize out of nowhere!"
Moreover, besides being able to lock onto a target, it also carried a terrifying poison! With level ninety-one Soul Power, it could instantly poison him!
This demonstrated the cunning nature of this soul skill!
His right arm already swelling, Chen Xin endured the burning sensation coursing through his veins, quickly summoning the Seven Kill Sword's original form, which promptly flew back to his hand with a "zing"...
Naturally, the countless illusions of Seven Kill Swords in the air shattered like glass and vanished...
The shields surrounding Xu Sheng also reached their limit, shattering into countless crystalline particles that scattered...
After obtaining the Seven Kill Sword, Chen Xin immediately directed a massive flow of Soul Power to dissolve the poison, but instead, the poison spread even faster...
Realizing he couldn't dispel the toxin in a short time, Chen Xin's expression turned extremely sour, "I can only seal it for now! Sixth Soul Skill, Absolute Seal!"
The Seven Kill Sword emitted a sacred glow, as Chen Xin gripped it tightly, gently cutting his already blackened right arm...
The sacred light seeped into his right arm through the wound, sealing the spreading poison completely...
Initially, he thought dealing with a newly promoted Titled Douluo kid would be a piece of cake, but now it seemed...
He had underestimated him; if he continued like this, even he might fall prey to the strange martial soul...
After dealing with the poison in his arm, Chen Xin turned his gaze back to Xu Sheng, this time with more seriousness in his eyes and less contempt...
He acknowledged Xu Sheng's strength; naturally, he had to use his true power to contend with him...
Chen Xin silently pondered in his heart, "Seventh Soul Skill, Seven Kill Authentic Self!"
The seventh black soul ring slowly lit up...
The aura of the Seven Kill Sword in his hand abruptly transformed...
Xu Sheng watched Chen Xin, who had unleashed his Martial Soul True Body, feeling an unprecedented tension in his heart...
He murmured, "Martial Soul True Body... Is Chen Xin planning to go all out?"
