"Fifth Soul Skill, Thorned Bone Spikes!"
As the fifth soul ring beneath Porcupinefish Douluo's feet lit up, countless sharp bone spikes shot out, effortlessly killing those soul beasts once more.
But soon, the soul beasts he had just dealt with charged out again, even faster than before.
Seeing this scene, Porcupinefish Douluo was startled. Could it be that there were Fallen Ones secretly controlling these soul beasts? How could they keep coming, one wave after another, as if they'd never stop?
To better protect Qian Renxue from disturbance, Porcupinefish Douluo flashed in front of her, then extended his hands. Driven by the soul power within him, a light shield immediately enveloped her body.
It was at this moment that the Ghost Tiger and the Tusks slammed into the light shield released by Porcupinefish Douluo, and the other Shadow Soldiers did the same. Because they were moving too fast, they could only brace themselves against it. After all... these were the commands of the king.
And just as Porcupinefish Douluo saw the eight Shadow Soldiers gathered together and was about to release a soul skill to deal with these annoying soul beasts, Qian Renxue, who was absorbing her sixth soul ring, slowly opened her eyes behind him.
A pair of beautiful, star-like purple eyes twinkled. Behind her, a three-meter-tall illusory angel appeared. This angel had six wings and a noble countenance. A holy golden halo bloomed, causing the surrounding Shadow Soldiers to instinctively retreat a few steps.
The Shadow Soldiers came from the darkness. Facing such dazzling, holy, and bright light, even their king would temporarily be at a disadvantage, let alone them.
Seeing Qian Renxue finish absorbing the spirit ring, Cheng Xiao's thoughts shifted. The Shadow Soldiers surrounding her immediately transformed into wisps of black mist and disappeared before Snake Lance Douluo and Qian Renxue's eyes.
The Shadow Soldiers came quickly and left just as fast. This all happened suddenly. Snake Lance Douluo hadn't even used his killing move yet, and the Shadow Soldiers had scattered like the tide.
After the Shadow Soldiers dispersed, a dark shadow flashed in the shadows of the forest not far from the two of them.
"Young master... you, you succeeded?"
As Porcupinefish Douluo's humble voice fell, the golden halo emanating from Qian Renxue's body gradually dissipated. The sixth black spirit ring swirling around her had completely formed. Her mental power had been enhanced, and she instantly noticed something amiss.
"Those spirit beasts... they don't seem to be flesh and blood. The attributes they possess are all of the same dark attribute," Qian Renxue pondered, her eyes slightly narrowed.
"Young master, it's like this, let me explain..." Porcupinefish Douluo's voice sounded in her ears. Then, he used the sound transmission technique only high-level soul masters could use, recounting the bizarre scene from beginning to end.
"So, Uncle Yu Long, after seeing that Human-Faced Demon Spider, rushed out to prevent it from affecting my absorption of the soul ring, is that right?" Qian Renxue stood up, patted the dust off her clothes, and said calmly.
"Uh... that's right." Porcupinefish Douluo said.
As the words fell, another figure appeared beside them. This person was Snake Lance Douluo, Yu Long, who had gone to pursue the Human-Faced Demon Spider.
"Uncle Yu Long, did you hunt down that Human-Faced Demon Spider?" Qian Renxue looked around, her eyes slightly gleaming with golden light, and said calmly.
"Reporting to the young master, that Human-Faced Demon Spider was very strange. I killed it twice before I completely killed it, and, when it died, it didn't even leave a body, nor did it leave a soul ring." Snake Lance Douluo thought of what had happened, and couldn't help but feel strange.
As everyone knows, when a soul beast is killed by a soul master, its body will remain, and a soul ring will also appear. But that Human-Faced Demon Spider, which was completely black and looked like it was wearing armor, he had killed it twice before he completely killed it. And just after it died, a strange scene happened.
Such a large-sized soul beast, after death, its body dissipated, and no soul ring appeared, and he had never even seen this type of soul beast before, a soul beast completely black like armor, it was the first time he had seen it.
Hearing this, Qian Renxue's slender hand lightly touched her chin, and immediately released her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, and slowly said, "Just now, Uncle Cixue also encountered the same strange thing as you, but for some reason, my Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul seems to have sensed something."
"It's like the Six-Winged Angel is telling me that there's another Angel Martial Soul nearby, one just like it."
Upon hearing this, Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo were both visibly shocked. They knew exactly what level the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was. It was a god-level Martial Soul, a true god-level Martial Soul!
Yet now, their young master was saying that there was another god-level Martial Soul nearby, one exactly like hers. This was simply absurd, impossible to believe.
"Young master, perhaps you're mistaken. Even if every Martial Soul on the continent were to appear, it's unlikely there would be one of the same quality as yours," Snake Lance Douluo said softly.
"My senses aren't wrong. Though the feeling is subtle, I can confirm that the person with the same Martial Soul as mine hasn't left yet. They are still nearby," Qian Renxue shook her head and said calmly.
Seeing this, Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo shut their mouths. As Qian Renxue's guardians, they understood when to speak and when to remain silent.
"Alright, two uncles, now that the sixth spirit ring has been completely absorbed, you two should return first. I want to stay here for a while and see if those dark, shadowy soul beasts will reappear," Qian Renxue walked to a large piece of green stone, then sat down gracefully, appearing as if she were waiting for someone.
Hearing this, a hint of bitterness appeared on Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo's faces. They wanted to refuse, but after spending so many years with Qian Renxue, they knew her personality too well.
They decided not to insist. Without another word, the two of them bowed simultaneously and then vanished before Qian Renxue.
"Heh, it's clearly a darkness attribute, yet it resonates with my Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul. It seems the true purpose of the person behind summoning these soul beasts to disturb me while absorbing the soul ring is likely the Three-Eyed Demon Ape." Qian Renxue's gaze fell directly on the long-dead Three-Eyed Demon Ape. She had spent a lot of effort to hunt this extremely powerful spirit-attributed soul beast.
Qian Renxue was very intelligent. From the accounts of Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupinefish Douluo, it wasn't difficult to see that those soul beasts weren't normal soul beasts. They had the appearance and abilities of soul beasts, but were essentially like energy bodies.
Moreover, these soul beasts were intelligent and purposeful. They even knew how to lure Snake Lance Douluo away, and then attract Porcupinefish Douluo's attention. This was done to influence her absorption of the soul ring while also taking the Three-Eyed Demon Ape away.
All the signs indicated that this wasn't something ordinary soul beasts could do. Even the extremely intelligent ten-thousand-year soul beast, the Three-Eyed Demon Ape, didn't possess such thinking. In a way, the actions of these soul beasts were more like those of human soul masters.
"I want to see what kind of soul master can command soul beasts to fight, and even resonate with my Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul. Since you want the Three-Eyed Demon Ape's corpse, I might as well wait here. I can also use this time to adjust the chaotic soul power in my body." Qian Renxue, who was sitting cross-legged on the bluestone, thought to herself.
Leaning against a large tree behind him, Cheng Xiao sighed helplessly.
He never expected that Qian Renxue wouldn't leave after absorbing the soul ring, but would instead wait there. This wasn't quite the same as the plot development he'd imagined!
At this moment, Cheng Xiao's Shadow Power was only one-tenth of its original amount. The cost of reviving the Shadow Soldiers was simply too great, especially reviving so many at once, and doing it several times, nearly drained him.
Sometimes, Cheng Xiao really wanted to say, "That's it, really, that's all I've got! You've wrung me dry, not a single drop left!"
