Chapter 124 Our spirits are made for each other!
"You've really reached level 60?" Qian Renxue was a little unbelievable.
"Brother Xue, there's no need for me to lie to you."
As he spoke, Xia Liang released all his soul power. No Undead Skeleton Martial Spirit appeared, but yellow, yellow, purple, black, black, a total of five soul rings fell from his head one after another.
When Qian Renxue saw the black ten thousand year fourth soul ring, she was completely stunned.
In the identity of Xue Qinghe, she learned that Xia Liang's third soul ring was limited to five thousand years.
I had joked at first not to absorb the fourth soul ring of ten thousand years, but I didn't expect that this brother would actually do it, and succeed?
Qian Renxue had seen the fourth soul ring of ten thousand years on her grandfather before.
It is said that it was because of the soul ring age increase reward obtained by completing the Angel God Assessment, so the original purple thousand-year soul ring was upgraded to a black ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring.
The brother in front of him is not protected by the divine test, so his fourth soul ring of ten thousand years should be obtained by absorbing the ten thousand year soul beast with his own strong bone endurance.
After figuring this out, Qian Renxue suddenly asked, "How old is your fifth soul ring?"
"Fifty thousand years."
Hearing this answer, Qian Renxue's eyes suddenly showed a light of surprise. Then, this surprise immediately turned into envy.
What she envied was that there were people on the mainland who could obtain such a high-year spirit ring configuration without taking the God Test?
Absorbing high-year spirit rings could not only bring great growth to the spirit master's body and martial spirit, but also increase the spirit power, allowing the spirit power level to increase faster.
If each of my soul rings could be absorbed above the level like this brother, I wouldn't have to break through the bottleneck of level 60 in my early twenties.
"You can absorb spirit rings of higher levels. Is it really because your bones have extraordinary endurance?" Qian Renxue asked.
"That's what I told the public."
Xia Liang changed the subject and smiled, "However, Brother Xue, you are not an outsider. You are willing to tell me the identity of the young master of the Spirit Hall and your hidden plan, which is enough to show your trust in me. I think I should also be honest with you. In fact, I was able to absorb spirit rings beyond my level because I was protected by a certain god."
"What did you say?" Qian Renxue suddenly stood up from the stone bed. She couldn't help but be surprised to hear the word "god" spoken by an ordinary soul master.
Qian Renxue walked up to Xia Liang in three steps, stared into his eyes and asked, "You said that you were protected by a certain god, so was your Skeleton Martial Spirit given by that god?"
"I guess so." Xia Liang looked back at Qian Renxue's gaze and lied, "When I was awakening my martial soul, my physical fitness was too poor to withstand the power of that god, causing the god-level martial soul that was originally based on that god to undergo a malignant mutation. In the end, it became the current skeleton martial soul."
"Because of this, the mark of the divine test bestowed upon me by the god disappeared. It will only appear again after I complete the first test."
"Brother Xue, please look. This is the god-level martial soul that only has ribs due to malignant mutation when I just awakened my martial soul."
As he spoke, Xia Liang walked to a relatively open place, then released his Undead Skeleton Martial Spirit. A huge black and purple rib enveloped him.
"As the number of spirit rings increases, my god-level martial spirit will gradually grow from only ribs to a head, hands, flesh, blood, and meridians, all the way to the armor of the god."
Every time a part of the Undead Skeleton Martial Spirit's growth process was told, Xia Liang would let the skeletal Susanoo enter the corresponding form in turn.
When it comes to the armor of the gods, the skeletal Susanoo covering him has completed the transformation from rib form to half-skeleton, then to half-human form and half-armor form.
Fortunately, Xia Liang had become very proficient in controlling the Undead Skeleton Martial Spirit, so he was able to compress the skeletal Susanoo in half-armor form into a size of only five meters.
Qian Renxue was stunned to see a rib growing into a humanoid martial spirit wearing armor. Although the size of this humanoid martial spirit wearing armor was intentionally reduced, it still gave people a strong sense of oppression.
Qian Renxue found that the resonance of the six-winged angel martial spirit in her body became stronger than ever before. She was almost certain that the half-human martial spirit in armor in front of her was really a malignant mutation of a god-level martial spirit as she had just said.
"Brother Xue, you've seen it too. Currently, my god-level martial soul can only enter the half-armor form. Perhaps after absorbing the seventh soul ring and possessing the martial soul's true form, my god-level martial soul can return to its original form. When I awakened my martial soul, I was afraid that the name of a god-level martial soul would be too eye-catching. So I called it a skeleton martial soul."
After hearing Xia Liang's words, Qian Renxue came back to her senses from her surprise. In less than ten minutes, she had been exposed to too much information.
Suddenly, there appeared an outsider who was protected by the gods just like himself. And this outsider actually had a god-level martial spirit that was malignantly mutated into a rib because of his own weakness?
This information was really hard to accept for a while.
When this dear brother heard that he was not the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe but the Young Master of the Spirit Hall Qian Renxue, he must have been in the same state of difficulty accepting it, right?
Five minutes later.
In the secret room.
On the stone bed.
Qian Renxue sat on the left side of the stone bed, while Xia Liang sat on the right side. The two of them sat back to back, and neither spoke.
After sorting out the whole story, Qian Renxue said, "So, because of the protection of the gods, you have such a fast training speed and the benefit of absorbing spirit rings beyond your level?"
"Yeah." Xia Liang pretended to be guilty and said, "Brother Xue, I have been hiding this matter. I am really sorry."
"You were right to conceal it. As a civilian spirit master, if this secret was exposed, you would not have survived until now. After you said this, everything is explained. No wonder I always felt that you were hiding something from the outside world since the first time I met you."
Having said this, Qian Renxue turned around and looked at Xia Liang and asked, "I'm curious, what is the name of the deity that protects you?"
"Even my divine test mark has been taken back. Do you think I am still qualified to know the name of that god?"
Xia Liang also turned around and looked at Qian Renxue, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "If I can't restore the skeleton martial soul to the original appearance of the god when the seventh soul ring martial soul is in its true form, then perhaps I will be directly disqualified from the divine examination."
"Then how can I help you?" Just after asking this question, Qian Renxue suddenly remembered, "Could it be related to your request for my help in obtaining the sixth spirit ring?"
"Brother Xue, you are so smart." Xia Liang praised with a smile.
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, and then she shook her head in disdain after a moment of silence. "Leave your flattery to others. Brother, let's get down to business. What soul beast do you want me to help you hunt?"
"I don't know the name of that god, but I know he is a dark god. Based on my experience of absorbing five spirit rings, if I want the Skeleton Martial Soul to return to the appearance of that god, I just need to continue to obtain spirit rings from dark spirit beasts."
Having said that, Xia Liang took out the soul beast manuscript that Yu Xiaogang had given him before from the three-color ring, turned to the page about the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and handed it to Qian Renxue.
After taking the manuscript and taking a look at it, Qian Renxue suddenly frowned and said in disbelief, "The evil god descended upon a white tiger, giving it the extremely evil attributes transformed by the evil god. Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, is there actually such a soul beast related to the gods on the continent?"
"Yes. As far as I know, in ancient times, a great war broke out in the God Realm, and many gods fell to the Douluo Continent. Perhaps this is why some soul beasts inherited the bloodline of the gods."
Xia Liang took back the manuscript and put it into the tricolor ring, saying, "The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, just by listening to the name, it is very suitable to be the soul ring of the Skeleton Martial Soul. What's more, it has the blood of the Evil God. After absorbing its soul ring, my Skeleton Martial Soul may awaken a trace of the original power of the dark god."
Qian Renxue nodded in agreement, "Using the soul ring of a soul beast with negative god blood to replenish the negative god origin of a martial soul is theoretically feasible. Then do you know where soul beasts like the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger are?"
"I don't know. In a few days, I want to use will-o'-the-wisp to search near the Xingdou Great Forest."
Xia Liang looked at Qian Renxue and smiled, "I'm telling you this in advance because I hope you can spare some manpower to help me after we find the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger."
"Didn't you ask Poison Douluo for help with your fifth spirit ring? Then you can ask him for your sixth spirit ring. Why are you looking for me?"
Qian Renxue crossed her arms and said unhappily, "Anyway, you and Poison Douluo also have martial soul fusion skills. Together with him and his granddaughter, the three of us will be one. Are you afraid that you can't kill a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?"
"Brother Xue, you don't know. The martial soul fusion technique between me and Poison Douluo must be assisted by soul skills."
Xia Liang explained, "In fact, it's not just Poison Douluo. As long as the other party is willing to be controlled by my soul skills, I can perform soul fusion skills with any beast soul master."
"And the martial soul fusion technique in this state does not have any martial soul resonance between us. To put it bluntly, other soul masters and I are forcibly tied together. But you and I are a natural match."
"Please explain clearly." Qian Renxue corrected, "It is our spirits that are made for each other, not us!"
"Okay, okay. Our spirits are a perfect match. Brother Xue, no more jokes." Xia Liang said seriously, "I'm not looking for Poison Douluo, mainly because the fusion of my spirits with his can't beat the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger at all."
"Think about it, this is a super soul beast with the blood of the evil god. When I was working in the mercenary group, I heard that there was a dark devil evil god tiger with a cultivation of nearly 60,000 years near the Xingdou Great Forest. It has a nearly invincible single combat skill, so if you want to fight it, at least two people must be together to ensure safety."
"In addition to Poison Douluo, I also need a Titled Douluo to help. But if I let your Titled Douluo join forces with Poison Douluo, wouldn't it expose your identity as the young master of the Spirit Hall?"
"After much consideration, I decided to leave it to you. I will keep the matter secret from Poison Douluo for now."
After hearing this, the unhappiness on Qian Renxue's face disappeared, and she said calmly, "In this case, I will send the two Douluo, Thorny Porpoise and Snake Spear, who are always by my side, to help you."
"No." Xia Liang shook his head seriously. "Brother Xue, it's not that I look down on Thorny Porpoise and Snake Spear Douluo. But a 60,000-year-old Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is enough to rival a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Can you guarantee that the two Douluo can kill the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger together?"
"There's nothing I can do about it." Qian Renxue said helplessly, "I'm carrying out the lurking plan, and I only have Thorny Porpoise and Snake Spear Douluo around me. If you don't want to, I can't help you."
"Okay." Xia Liang sighed regretfully, "I am determined to kill the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Since Brother Xue can't help me, I can only ask Poison Douluo for help. He is my grandfather after all, no matter how difficult it is, he will definitely find a way to help me."
"Brother, do you mean that I am just trying to be perfunctory with you?" Qian Renxue asked.
Xia Liang waved his hand, "Brother Xue, that's not what I meant. You are only the young master of the Spirit Hall, not the Pope of the Spirit Hall. It is already your limit to be able to mobilize the two Douluo, Thorny Porpoise and Snake Spear, at will. The stronger Titled Douluo should not be under your control. I understand your difficulties."
After listening to the story just now, Qian Renxue felt that she was still very patient. But when she heard Xia Liang say that he was only the young master of the Spirit Hall and not the Pope of the Spirit Hall, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
What is the Pope of the Spirit Hall?
He is just a puppet of the Qian Family who temporarily takes over the position of Pope. In the end, won't the position of Pope be returned to him?
"Brother Xue, if you are unable to help me, I will not disturb your practice. Bye."
Having said that, Xia Liang stood up from the stone bed, bowed to Qian Renxue and then walked out of the secret room.
"Stop!" Qian Renxue suddenly shouted, "Why are you so anxious? Who said I can't help you?"
"Don't go looking for Poison Douluo about hunting the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. I will help you handle it."
Xia Liang smiled in surprise, "Brother Xue, are you serious?"
"Really. But first, I'll find a way to help you after you find the Dark Demon Evil Tiger. Is that okay?"
Qian Renxue sat back on the stone bed, and after thinking for a moment, she looked at Xia Liang and reminded him intentionally, "My dear brother, you just said it. The martial soul fusion technique between you and Poison Douluo was performed by force. We are a perfect match. Therefore, you should get closer to me."
"Brother Xue, please explain clearly." Xia Liang corrected, "It is our martial spirits that are made for each other. Not us!"
After hearing this, Qian Renxue realized the ambiguity in her words and quickly returned to the point, "You should feel it now, right? Because we both have level 60 spirit powers, the resonance between our martial souls has never been stronger. Perhaps we can perform martial soul fusion skills without much adjustment. Brother, since you are here, why don't we give it a try?"
"Okay. I thought so too." Xia Liang suddenly asked, "But, Brother Xue, do you know how to perform the martial soul fusion technique?"
"I don't know." Qian Renxue frowned, "Haven't you used it with Poison Douluo before? You can just teach me."
"That's true." Xia Liang walked to Qian Renxue and sat on the stone bed with her.
"What are you doing?" Qian Renxue moved a little to put some distance between them.
"To perform a martial soul fusion technique, physical contact is required. Otherwise, how can we fuse? Brother Xue, we are sworn brothers of the opposite sex. You won't be disgusted by my physical contact with you, right?"
As he spoke, Xia Liang sat closer to Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue did not move this time. She was the one who proposed to become sworn brothers, so how could she possibly despise the other party?
It's normal for brothers to have some physical contact.
