Getting this answer startled Qian Renxue. What kind of third Soul Ring would make Xu Yang afraid to reveal it, only daring to fight with a Soul Bone?
She thought and thought, but couldn't come up with an answer. She had considered the idea of a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, but quickly dismissed it. Although Yu Xiaogang's theory on Soul Ring absorption age wasn't entirely correct, it was currently the most reasonable range for Soul Masters to safely absorb Soul Rings.
The appearance of Whale Rubber made a Ten Thousand Year fourth Soul Ring possible, but it was only a possibility. After all, the mental shock that Ten Thousand Year Soul Beasts could bring wasn't a secret in large families and powerful forces, so unless they were 80% sure, they wouldn't absorb it.
This was also the reason why she, with her innate level 20 Soul Power, absorbed Soul Rings according to the theoretical limit for Soul Masters.
Thinking of her own Soul Ring configuration, Qian Renxue felt a little regret. Why couldn't the effect of this Whale Rubber have been discovered earlier?! Otherwise, her first three Soul Rings wouldn't have been the same as ordinary Soul Masters. Fortunately, her fourth Soul Ring successfully reached Ten Thousand Years with the help of several pieces of Ten Thousand Year Whale Rubber and the mental amplification brought by the Cloud Illusion Skull.
This could be considered a bit of psychological comfort for her.
The battle on the field continued. Xu Yang was still at a disadvantage. The Iron Blood Soul Master, having activated two amplification Soul Skills, was superior to him in both strength and speed. If it weren't for the Secret Skills he had learned from his own Soul Skills, he might have lost long ago.
But fortunately, under the Iron Blood Soul Master's skill competition, he absorbed the foundation he had laid down through years of training, and his Blade Skill was constantly improving.
It was only at this moment that he understood the meaning of what Ning Haiyan often said.
"If you want your Blade Skill to truly improve, in addition to experiencing life-and-death battles, you must fight against all types of Soul Masters, so that your Blade Skill can cope with all battles."
Because Soul Masters have a wide variety of attack methods, in addition to fists, feet, and weapons, there are also elemental Soul Skills, locking Soul Skills, amplification Soul Skills, mental Soul Skills, and so on, which can be said to be countless. It's too foolish to simply know how to use Blade Skill to fight other Soul Masters, so there are very few famous swordsmen and blade wielders in Douluo Continent.
"It seems I need to take some time to go back and get Sword Grandfather's Seven Kill Swordplay!"
As he fought, Xu Yang's mind began to think about Sword Douluo's Seven Kill Swordplay.
As a descendant of the Seven Kill lineage, although Sword Douluo has somewhat put down his Sword Dao in recent years, he is still the number one person in the Douluo Continent Sword Dao.
The Seven Kill Sword Spirit's Sword Intent is innate, and it comes with a set of Swordplay. After generations of efforts, it has reached a limit.
This set of Swordplay does not have fixed moves, but is similar to the Sword Dao system in previous martial arts novels, with a total of seven levels, from One Kill to Seven Kill. Each time a Kill is reached, a Soul Ring will be integrated into the Sword. When cultivated to Seven Kill, the first seven Soul Rings are integrated into the Sword, achieving the degree of integration of the Soul Ring and the Spirit. Not only can the first seven Soul Skills be used easily, but also the 'Kill' character Blade Qi can be slashed out with a wave of the hand, which is unparalleled in sharpness and can break everything.
However, Xu Yang does not have the Seven Kill Sword Spirit, so he can only learn the Sword Dao concept from it and transform it into his own Blade Skill concept. The most important thing is to condense his own Blade Intent.
The path of Sword Intent, Blade Intent, and realm is passable in Douluo Continent. Not to mention the Seven Kill Sword with innate Sword Intent, the original book also mentioned the realm of Harmony between Man and Nature many times, as well as Ji Juechen ten thousand years later, who was a genius who acquired Sword Intent and even the Domain.
Based on that growth, Xu Yang suspected that the Domain was the realm above Sword Intent.
Of course, the Domain realm is too early for Xu Yang. He should first comprehend his own unique Intent.
'Clang!'
Xu Yang retracted his distracted thoughts and blocked the Iron Blood Soul Master's spear. Having the skill of Distraction Control allows him to think while fighting without being distracted.
At this moment, both Xu Yang and the Iron Blood Soul Master had reached their limits. After performing two amplification Soul Skills in a row, and after such a long battle, the Iron Blood Soul Master's Soul Power had been drained. Xu Yang was also about the same. Various Secret Skills were used alternately. Even though his Soul Power had reached 1.4 times that of a regular Soul Master, his Soul Power was almost exhausted, leaving only the power of one strike.
The two were panting, pointing at each other, their eyes full of fighting spirit.
Looking at the Iron Blood Soul Master's sharply declining aura, Xu Yang smiled and said, "The time for your amplification Soul Skill is up. I've won this battle!"
As he spoke, Xu Yang swung the Tang Blade, and a golden Blade Qi instantly slashed out, heading straight for the Iron Blood Soul Master.
"Clang! Clang!..."
The Iron Blood Soul Master waved the Iron Blood Flag to resist, and the sound of metal clashing rang out again, but it didn't last long. He knelt down on one knee due to insufficient Soul Power. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Yang quickly moved in front of him, pointing the Tang Blade in his hand directly at the Iron Blood Soul Master, and said with a smile in his unwilling eyes, "You lost!"
"Yes! I lost!"
The Iron Blood Soul Master fell straight to the ground with a bitter smile and fell into a deep sleep. The high-intensity battle had exhausted his spirit, Soul Power, and physical strength. This sudden relaxation, after the feeling of exhaustion surged up, he immediately fell asleep.
In fact, Xu Yang's condition was similar. His Soul Power was completely exhausted, and his physical and Spiritual Power were also low, almost reaching his limit.
He was only able to do this because he had been training his body for many years and focused on Spiritual Power meditation. If it were anyone else, they would probably be the same as the Iron Blood Soul Master.
Xu Yang put away the Sun Sacred Blade and slowly moved his steps towards the stage. Seeing this, Dugu Yan quickly stepped forward and let Xu Yang put his arm around her neck, supporting him down like this.
After taking a few steps, Xu Yang turned his head and looked at the other support Iron Blood Soul Master carrying his brother on his back, heading towards the opposite lounge. He was also a little regretful, "It's a pity, I don't know their names."
"Alright! Look at what you've become?! And you're still concerned about them!" Dugu Yan rolled her eyes unhappily, looking at Xu Yang with some heartache.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Yang said helplessly.
In the rest area, Qin Ming was already waiting at the door. His face was not good, because in his opinion, Xu Yang's battle was simply a mess. Clearly, as long as he and Dugu Yan fought two against one, they could easily solve the opponent, but he insisted on choosing the most laborious and thankless fighting method, exhausting his Soul Power, physical strength, and Spiritual Power.
Next, they still had to participate in the team battle Soul Duel.
Most of the Soul Masters in their team were only at level twenty-three or four. Participating in the Soul Elder Soul Duel was already disadvantageous. Now, the strongest of the two Soul Elders was still in a state of decline, so how would they conduct the team battle Soul Duel next?
Seeing Xu Yang and Dugu Yan, Qin Ming turned three steps into two steps and came directly to Xu Yang's side, looking at his tired face, and said helplessly, "Why did you do this?!"
