Lu Binzhou's gaze sharpened, a keen light flashing in those small eyes of his.

With an explosive shout, his already burly body rapidly swelled. The somewhat loose fat on him tightened at high speed under the effect of Martial Soul Possession, turning into terrifying, exaggerated muscle. A dark yellow cuticle surfaced over his skin, shimmering with a metallic luster.

The illusory figure of a giant elephant appeared out of thin air behind him and raised its head to the sky with a high, piercing trumpet.

"Ang—"

Rolling Sound Waves twisted the surrounding space and spread on without end.

Carrying surging Soul Power Fluctuations, three Soul Rings, two yellow and one purple, rose from beneath Lu Binzhou's feet almost at the same time.

The Two Yellow Soul Rings in front lit up simultaneously. Lu Binzhou's Aura surged sharply once more, and the dark yellow cuticle covering him gained an additional crystalline sheen, as if it had been coated in a layer of Diamond Ice Crystal.

His Martial Soul was none other than one of the top existences among defense-type Martial Souls, the Diamond Mammoth. The inheritance of the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul could even be traced back to the Ancient Era of Spirit Hall. Back then, the Elephant Armor Sect, one of the seven great sects of the continent, had shaken the continent with this very Martial Soul.

It was not hard to tell that the effects of Lu Binzhou's first two Soul Skills were respectively to amplify his own strength and to increase his own Defense Power. These two Soul Skills complemented each other, perfectly matching the characteristics of his Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul.

Lu Binzhou braced his powerful frame and charged up head-on, using both hands to control the head of that Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon with all his might.

"Boom—" The collision of terrifying force between the two sides caused the ground within dozens of meters to collapse abruptly. Dust flew everywhere, countless shrubs and flowers were uprooted, and the surroundings instantly became a scene of utter devastation. With Lu Binzhou and that Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon at the center, cracks even appeared across the earth and continued extending farther outward.

In order to keep Lu Binzhou from having to constantly split his attention to protect him, Yu Nanyuan had long since used the Innate Ability of his Void Chains Martial Soul to flicker onto the thick trunk of a towering ancient tree. His expression calm, he looked down at Lu Binzhou and the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon clashing below.

"Roar, roar, roar—"

The Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon roared again and again. The single horn on its forehead carved deep white marks across the Diamond Ice Crystal layer on Lu Binzhou's chest, but it still could not force Lu Binzhou back even half a step.

Only, facing an exceptionally powerful Thousand Year Soul Beast like the Unicorn Dragon, Lu Binzhou could not gain any obvious upper hand either. The two sides were locked in a stalemate just like that.

A strange glint swept through Yu Nanyuan's Brilliant Gold Eyes, and he slowly extended his right hand. A bright yellow Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet, then suddenly shone.

"First Soul Skill, Void Dragon Locking Array."

Mystical silver runes descended from the void, appearing above the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon's head. Silver Chains much thicker than the normal Void Chains emerged from within them, carrying an invisible pressure as they bound the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon's body. Silver light flashed, and the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon's figure was instantly imprisoned, unable to move another inch.

Even the Dragon Bloodline inside the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon's body, which it took such pride in, seemed to be suppressed, causing its aura to wither at a visible speed. In those enormous eyes of its, a trace of terror surfaced beyond its control.

The Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon began struggling with all its might, but for a short time, it was still unable to break free from the seal of the Void Dragon Locking Array's Power of Spatial Imprisonment.

Lu Binzhou was first stunned, then he forcefully suppressed the shock and horror in his heart and lit up his only Purple Thousand-Year Soul Ring at the first possible moment. His entire body was wreathed in a layer of dazzling purple light as he pounced into the air.

The illusory Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul behind him also trumpeted toward the sky, its pair of thick forelimbs raised high before slamming down onto the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon.

"Third Soul Skill, Crushing Kill!"

Lu Binzhou let out an angry roar, holding nothing back. With his huge body descending from the sky, coupled with the effect of his own Soul Power, the killing power of this Soul Skill was something even a strength-type Soul Master at the same level as him would probably find hard to withstand.

"Boom—" On top of the already collapsed ground, another deep pit appeared, covering an even wider area. The massive Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon had its four limbs crushed apart by Lu Binzhou by sheer force, and its thick scales were shattered to pieces. Its huge head drooped powerlessly to the ground, leaving it on its last breath.

Lu Binzhou withdrew his Martial Soul and gasped for air in great gulps. Only then did he raise his head and look with uncertainty toward Yu Nanyuan, who stood on the thick tree trunk.

However, Yu Nanyuan had now fallen into thought, his gaze burning bright, excitement lingering in his heart.

So it is.

This First Soul Skill of his, Void Dragon Locking Array, not only came with an absolutely guaranteed spatial imprisonment effect, but also had a suppressive effect on all Bloodline Power.

Whether against Soul Masters or Soul Beasts, the stronger the Bloodline Power inside their bodies, the greater the restriction they suffered from Void Dragon Locking Array. Especially for those Soul Masters and Soul Beasts with Dragon Bloodline, the suppressive effect of Void Dragon Locking Array was even more obvious.

It seemed that within the inheritance of Dragon Bloodline, there existed a special brand that was innately countered by this Soul Skill of his. It could be called a special attack against dragons.

Then what if it's the Golden Dragon King Bloodline and the Silver Dragon King Bloodline... Yu Nanyuan's mind sank slightly, but he did not dwell too much on this matter now. A Silver Chain pierced through the void, and his figure also used Instant Movement to return to Lu Binzhou's side, a faint, gentle smile brimming on his face. From beginning to end, it was as if he had merely done something insignificant.

"Nanyuan, I think I finally understand why the Dean was so at ease letting you enter this Primary Spirit Ascension Platform."

Lu Binzhou was increasingly shaken by Yu Nanyuan's downright terrifying talent and scratched his head honestly.

"All right, let's not talk about that for now. You should finish off this Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon first. With its cultivation, it should at least be able to raise the years of your First Soul Ring by more than a hundred years. I imagine this is another reason the Dean let you enter the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform."

"Thank you, Brother A Bin." Yu Nanyuan nodded and did not decline, directly using the slender wedge of his Void Chains to pierce through the Thousand Year Unicorn Dragon's skull. Increasing his Soul Ring Years and the quality of his Soul Spirit was one of his purposes in entering this Primary Spirit Ascension Platform to begin with.

A dense yellow halo surged out as well, merging into his body.

A warm sensation spread through his whole body. Compared with before, Yu Nanyuan felt it much more clearly this time. While it was exceptionally comfortable, his entire body also produced a sense of fatigue.

This was clearly a sign that his Soul Spirit was about to awaken. With this energy merging in, it seemed to have sped up the awakening of the Silver Wing Void Piercing Snake within his body, and during this process, the Soul Spirit would continuously absorb his Soul Power and Spiritual Power. That was also the source of the fatigue.

Ji Hongyu and Yu Zhen, who were outside, understood in their hearts that Yu Nanyuan's trip to the Spirit Ascension Platform had to end. However, the shock Yu Nanyuan had brought them was still slow to fade.

Just then, Ji Hongyu's Soul Guidance Communicator suddenly rang. His brows furrowed slightly as he casually picked it up and asked in a deep voice, "What is it?"

"Pagoda Master, President Luo of the Heaven Dou City Mecha Master Association has come to visit. He hopes to buy that Century Void Worm Soul Spirit for his grandson..."
