Chapter 237: Xu Tianran's Sudden Chill

"Young Sect Master, can the Body Sect really not help the Sky Soul Empire through this crisis?" Wei na asked Du Qianjue with a slightly strained tone, her eyes filled with a hint of pleading.

"The last power that interfered with the course of history was Shrek Academy, and now the ruins of Shrek City have grown over with grass," Du Qianjue replied calmly, his expression unswayed.

"Whether it's your Sky Soul, Star Luo, or Fighting Spirit countries, you are all too conservative and outdated. Powerful soul masters are hard to cultivate, but soul guidance masters with combat abilities are easy to grow."

"For ordinary soul masters, the development of soul-guiding devices is inevitable and unstoppable. You recognized the power of soul-guiding devices four thousand years ago, yet you have made no progress in these four thousand years."

"This is why you will be crushed under the wheels of history. I will not obstruct the progress of the era, and neither will the Body Sect."

Wei na wanted to say more, but Du Qianjue, who was sitting on the sofa, had already disappeared quietly, leaving only the fruit pits beside him as proof of his recent presence.

Long Ao Tian sighed softly and drew Wei na into his embrace. Although he was eager to fight for the Sky Soul Empire, Du Qianjue had strictly forbidden it, and the Emperor of the Sky Soul had also ordered the refusal of Long Ao Tian and Wei na's return.

Having received the support of soul-guiding devices from the Body Sect, the Emperor of the Sky Soul realized that the Body Sect would not intervene this time. Their royal family could only commit fully to the fight, and Wei na was the last spark of the Sky Soul royal family within the Body Sect.

Under such circumstances, how could he allow Long Ao Tian and Wei na to return and join the war?

Ignoring the powerless Wei na in his heart, Du Qianjue teleported back to his room.

"Teacher, do you think... is there a possibility that after extracting a soul master's martial soul with necromancy, the martial soul could be turned into a soul ring?" Du Qianjue, releasing his terrifyingly colored eight soul rings, muttered to himself while looking at his soul rings.

Gold, red, red, red, red, black gold, red.

His eight undisguised soul rings floated around him, emitting a bright light. The attribute of destruction was too rare in the Douluo Continent. Even soul beasts with space and time attributes were known from the original stories, but only the Purple Radiance Sky Dragon was known for its attribute of destruction.

Thinking about how many attributes he now possessed.

From the very beginning, ice, fire, wind, thunder, earth, evil, darkness, space, time, light, life, Du Qianjue had almost collected all the attributes of the Douluo Continent. He was missing only the metal attribute, with evil and life being higher-level attributes, and now he needed only the destruction attribute.

Metal attribute soul rings were easy to handle; the Sun Moon Empire was never short of soul rings with the metal attribute. Since the Grand Tournament didn't require Du Qianjue to do any work, he planned to go to the Jingyang Mountains to see if he could find an ultimate metal attribute hundred-thousand-year soul beast to make into a soul ring.

As for the destruction attribute, he would have to find a way to extract Xu Tianran's martial soul.

Xu Tianran was also a Titled Douluo by now. If his martial soul were extracted to form a soul ring, it would likely produce a hundred-thousand-year level soul ring, which would suitably enhance Du Qianjue's attribute of destruction.

This way, Du Qianjue was actually only two soul rings short.

If he could obtain the attributes of destruction and metal, then work on breaking through the rank of Titled Douluo, and finally deal with the Tyrant Dragon Overlord to make his ninth soul ring, Du Qianjue could then use his second martial soul to rapidly break through to the level of Limit Douluo, and then seek to become a god.

Combining all the attributes into one, and then fully integrating his body martial soul, he would follow the orthodox path of cultivating only himself.

Du Qianjue stretched out his hand, and ten colors of soul power slowly rotated in his hand, forming a tiny vortex. Eventually, all the colors returned to a simple, unadorned gray-white.

Chaos.

This was Du Qianjue's never-before-used trump card, also his ultimate move against Tang San.

Combining all attributes into one, Du Qianjue was confident of becoming a god without relying on a god position, possibly even stronger than a god with a god position.

Chaos attribute was his assurance.

After over a decade of cultivation, Du Qianjue had never used his chaos attribute, not because it was weak—on the contrary, with the enhancement of ten powerful elements, Du Qianjue could have god-level strength if he used his chaos attribute recklessly.

However, because Tang San was always watching from above, Du Qianjue always kept the existence of his chaos attribute hidden.

"During this time, I've also been researching the soul rings of the Douluo Continent and have made quite a few discoveries," said electrolux's apparition, appearing in front of Du Qianjue and looking at his chaos attribute while stroking his beard.

"Every time you absorb a soul ring, I've been analyzing the composition of soul rings, like why soul beasts form soul rings after death, why soul beasts can voluntarily sacrifice themselves to become a soul master's soul ring."

"All these things have really piqued my curiosity," electrolux laughed with a hint of admiration and pride. "In terms of combat, this fragment of my consciousness may not be able to exert much power, but in terms of understanding the rules, I consider myself second to none!"

"Does that mean you've found a way, Teacher?" Upon hearing electrolux 's words, Du Qianju's eyes immediately lit up.

His tone was full of confidence, not hiding a bit.

"Of course, it's just a trivial matter," electrolux chuckled and continued, "As you absorbed each soul ring, I was also observing the reasons for their formation, especially last time when you absorbed the soul ring from Xuanzi. Only then did I fully understand the principle of soul rings."

Xuanzi, strictly speaking, still identified as a standard human without any trace of soul beast bloodline. However, he could form a soul ring upon death due to the rules of the Douluo Continent.

His body contained too much of the origin power from the Golden Tree. Although the Golden Tree was a life core, under the influence of the rules, it could also be considered a soul beast.

A plant-type soul beast of unprecedented strength.

After it transferred all its origin power to Xuanzi, the part of the origin power that Xuanzi couldn't absorb remained stored in his body, linked with his martial soul, turning Xuanzi into a sort of 'soul beast.'

Thus, after Xuanzi's death, a soul ring and soul bone appeared.

This means that martial souls can indeed be turned into soul rings! The difficulty, however, is extremely high. Without a certain understanding of the rules of the Douluo Continent, it would be impossible to achieve.

Having directly observed the process of soul ring condensation after Xuanzi's death, electrolux also came to understand how soul rings are formed and naturally could emulate it!

"The most important thing in a soul ring is still the soul beast's soul, which can also be understood as a human's martial soul! With the 'soul' involved, the soul ring can then be attached to the martial soul. Conversely, if we can manipulate the rules, the martial soul can also act as the 'soul' to form a soul ring!"

"Compared to the 'soul', the soul power and vital energy of a soul beast are merely catalysts, just for imprinting 'soul skills' in the soul ring. After the formation of a soul ring, not all the soul power of the soul beast is condensed into the soul ring. Instead, only a portion of the soul power is preserved within the soul ring. The rest either forms what you know as soul bones in your world or dissipates into the environment."

"With my abilities, extracting Xu Tianran's soul and then turning his soul and martial soul into a soul ring is not a difficult task," electrolux concluded.

What? You think extracting a person's soul and martial soul is too cruel?

Have you forgotten what electrolux's title is?

Necromancer, the Scourge of the Undead!

electrolux harbors no so-called mercy. He was once a powerful being who almost destroyed the Holy Demonic Continent!

Du Qianjue is no saint either. While he might hesitate to indiscriminately slaughter thousands to strengthen himself, he has no qualms about killing just Xu Tianran.

Xu Tianran, that detestable figure, is no good person either. An overlord who could cooperate with the Holy Spirit Cult and not shy from bloodshed certainly deserves no sympathy.

Neither of them are good people. Big brother should not talk about second brother; if one dies, it's only because of insufficient learning and strength. If Xu Tianran dies, it's only because he possesses the destruction attribute that Du Qianjue wants!

"Then I'll need your help in a while, Teacher," Du Qianjue grinned, exchanging a look of excitement with electrolux.

Du Qianjue wanted the attribute of destruction, and electrolux wanted to experiment with Xu Tianran's soul. It was a perfect match!

As Xu Tianran watched the competition, a sudden chill ran down his spine, feeling as if a wave of intense malice had enveloped him!

How cautious Xu Tianran was! He immediately suspected that someone in the arena intended to harm him. A host of life-saving ninth-level soul-guiding devices were always ready to be activated, and his sharp, hawk-like eyes vigilantly scanned the surroundings.

"Your Highness, what's wrong?" Orange, behind him, noticed his odd behavior and leaned in to ask quietly.

After finding nothing, Xu Tianran frowned and shook his head lightly.

"It's nothing, I might just be overly sensitive." Although Xu Tianran still felt somewhat uncertain, the malicious intent had come and gone so quickly that everything seemed normal again.

If he weren't so trusting of his instincts, he might even think that the sensation from a moment ago was just an illusion.

"Arrange for more people to be on guard these next few days; I have a feeling something isn't quite right."

Still, the cautious Xu Tianran had Orange increase his security. He wasn't ready to die just yet, not when he hadn't unified the continent.

"Yes, Your Highness," Orange nodded gently.
