Every time Lin Li fought using the Sword of Extermination, he felt a strange sensation, as if there were a connection between his two Martial Souls.
It wasn’t until he had killed enough people that he finally understood what it was from the information transmitted by his Martial Soul.
The Subjugation Ritual.
It didn’t occupy any of Lin Li’s Soul Ring slots; instead, it was more like a Soul Skill, or even a special trial.
The Subjugation Ritual could be activated voluntarily, but if the Sword of Extermination was used too much, it would also activate passively and could not be avoided.
The Subjugation Ritual would forcibly pull everyone within a certain range into it.
Mahoraga would then attack everyone within that range until all were killed.
If Lin Li himself killed Mahoraga, the subjugation would be considered a success.
He would receive a 100% bonus to all attributes and a certain chance to obtain a Domain…
the kind of Domain where attacks are guaranteed to hit 100% of the time.
Each time Mahoraga was summoned, its initial attributes were the same as Lin Li’s, but its combat experience, recovery power, and adaptability were different.
“Is this kid’s Martial Soul even a normal one?”
The second brother froze in place.
It was his first time seeing a Martial Soul that would attack its own Soul Master.
This seemed even more sinister than Fallen Soul Masters like themselves!
At least they didn’t self-mutilate.
Gulp…
The sound of swallowing rang out as everyone present felt an extremely powerful pressure weighing down on them.
“Wh-what are you afraid of?!
It’s just a strange Martial Soul!
Kill it!”
“Right, kill it!”
“Kill, kill, kill!!”
They cheered themselves on, each summoning their courage to release their Martial Soul Abilities.
In an instant, over a dozen different Martial Soul Abilities were launched at Mahoraga, and a thick cloud of smoke erupted.
When the smoke cleared, the Fallen Soul Masters looked on nervously, only to see Mahoraga lying on the ground, even missing two arms and a leg.
Heh!
I told you, this kid is just putting on a show!
I see—”
Before the second brother could finish his sentence, a clear “clack-clack” sound rang out, and the Mahoraga lying on the ground immediately stood up.
At the same time, its severed limbs recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the wheel above its head successfully made one full rotation.
“Is…
is this thing even human?”
The second brother began to feel fear.
How could it be unkillable?
The third brother seemed to realize something and roared loudly, “Hit the thing on its head!
It must be relying on that to recover!”
What the third brother didn’t know was that, not only had their barrage of attacks already allowed Mahoraga to adapt, but even if they did achieve his goal, that Dharma Wheel wouldn’t be broken.
…
“Brother Wushuang, hurry…
go call for help.
He definitely won’t last long…”
“What about you two?”
“We’re not in good shape.
You’re the fastest right now, so go first!
Time waits for no one!”
Huo Wushuang nodded and immediately possessed his Martial Soul, heading toward the Spirit Hall at his maximum speed.
As a major city with a Soul Douluo, the Spirit Hall stationed in Blazing Fire City was also exceptionally powerful; the Hall Master was a high-level Soul Saint.
Blazing Academy was located in the very center of the city.
Going to the academy for backup would be too slow, so Huo Wushuang chose to seek help from the Spirit Hall.
The Spirit Hall could be said to be the organization most hated by Fallen Soul Masters.
They often had high-level legions patrolling the entire continent specifically to hunt down Fallen Soul Masters.
In the current situation, asking the Spirit Hall for help was the best choice.
Shortly after Huo Wushuang left, Feng Xiaotian couldn’t help but spit out another mouthful of blood.
“Are you okay?”
Huo Wu frowned as she supported Feng Xiaotian.
The latter forced a smile: “With Sister Huo Wu supporting me, how could I possibly be in trouble?”
…
Huo Wu’s first instinct was to retort, but seeing that Feng Xiaotian was in such a state and still trying to make her laugh, she held her tongue.
“Hey, why did you follow me?
You could have just run away, right?”
“Then why did you go?”
“I went to save someone!”
Huo Wu answered straightforwardly, then saw Feng Xiaotian’s eyes staring intently at her.
“I also went to save someone.”
Fortunately, they were saved.
Feng Xiaotian knew he had played a significant role, so he was very happy in his heart.
But he also knew he wasn’t strong enough yet and couldn’t provide true protection, which made him yearn to become stronger.
As someone with Innate Full Soul Power, his strength had always been at the peak of his generation.
He had never seen anyone stronger than himself, but today he had seen one—someone much younger than him who was actually comparable in combat power and could even fight a Soul King for a while without losing despite only being at the two-ring realm.
Even more shocking was that his Soul Ring configuration was one yellow and one purple.
Originally, Feng Xiaotian had planned to research self-created Martial Soul Abilities to showcase his talent when the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament began, but now he only wanted to increase his strength.
The reason he hadn’t seen anyone with better talent than him wasn’t because his talent was unrivaled, but because he had been like a frog at the bottom of a well.
…
At the volcanic crater outside Blazing Fire City.
They were Dean Huo Tianquan and Vice Dean Huo Ling.
“Old man, stop meddling in things that don’t concern you!”
“Hmph, talk is cheap.
Everyone has the right to kill Fallen Soul Masters.
Die!”
“Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Body!”
Huo Ling had a fiery temper.
He stomped his left foot, his seventh Soul Ring flashed, and his entire body transformed into a ten-meter-tall flaming lion, pouncing fiercely at the three of them.
“You refused the path to heaven and barged into the gates of hell…
Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul True Body!”
A giant blood-colored skeleton rose up, its hands meeting the pouncing lion’s claws head-on.
“You two, why don’t you test your skills against this Dean?”
Huo Tianquan locked onto the other two.
With a wave of his hand, a four-meter-long Flaming Greatsword appeared in his grasp.
“Fourth Soul Skill, Brahma Slash!”
The already long Flaming Greatsword became even more grand as the flames surged.
Its magnificent aura, stretching over ten meters, looked like a divine punishment sent down by a god from the clouds upon the mountain.
The sea of fire raged.
Under the single blow, the mountain itself shook, and the two Fallen Soul Saints were sent flying.
“He’s…
a high-level Soul Douluo!”
The Deans of the four great academies were all powerful, but they hadn’t expected him to be this strong.
If Huo Tianquan didn’t perish, he would definitely become a Titled Douluo within a few years.
“What a pity.
Since you want to wade into these muddy waters…
then die here!”
The two Fallen Soul Saints exchanged a glance and simultaneously released heavy-hitting offensive Martial Soul Abilities toward the ground beneath them.
Cracks spread everywhere, and rubble flew.
From the places where the mountain split open, wisps of pitch-black demonic energy emerged.
“Taking the blood of ten thousand people filled with resentment, the hearts of a hundred unawakened infants, plus a dark-attribute Soul Douluo we lured and killed, combined with this unique environment…”
Huo Tianquan sensed that things were taking a turn for the worse and immediately activated his Martial Soul True Body to dive down.
“Seventh Soul Skill, Tool Soul True Body!”
One of the Fallen Soul Masters also activated his Martial Soul True Body, holding a Black Precious Lamp in his hand as he met the attack.
“Only realizing something is wrong now?
Too late!”
The remaining Soul Saint let out a frantic laugh, using all of his Soul Power to strike the final blow.
“Come forth!
Flame Demon Skeleton!”
