The Might of Massacre in All Directions!

Hearing Long Yun's answer, Yue Guan smiled. Long Yun's straightforward response raised Yue Guan's opinion of him considerably.

After agreeing, Long Yun took a few steps back and circulated his Soul Power. "Martial Soul Possession!" he shouted.

As his shout fell, Long Yun's body began to grow taller. In almost an instant, he reached around 1.8 meters in height, while his muscles swelled several times over, becoming incredibly solid. The exaggerated expansion of his muscles continuously tore apart his clothes, and before long, they had become mere strips of fabric hanging from his body, exposing his sharply defined muscles and the astonishing sense of power they radiated. His hair turned ash-gray, his expression became stern and seemingly devoid of emotion, and his pitch-black eyes were as deep as the night sky.

A dark yellow soul ring rose from beneath Long Yun's feet, radiating a dazzling glow that even the sunlight could not conceal. In the end, the soul ring settled around his lower waist.

The moment the soul ring appeared, Long Yun's aura reached its peak. An astonishing pressure erupted from his body and spread outward, causing nearby soul beasts to reveal fearful expressions and flee.

Watching Long Yun's transformation and the aura he gave off, Yue Guan nodded in satisfaction. Not bad. This aura is no weaker than that of an ordinary Soul Elder. This kid really is impressive, Yue Guan thought.

With the strength of a Titled Douluo, he could naturally tell at a glance just what level Long Yun's aura had reached. It was absolutely at the level of a Soul Elder. He knew that Long Yun's Soul Power Level should still be around level twenty. In other words, with level-twenty Soul Power, he had unleashed the aura of a Soul Elder above level thirty. What kind of outrageous talent did that require? Long Yun truly was a monster, Yue Guan marveled inwardly.

If Long Yun knew what Yue Guan was thinking, he would definitely add, I'm not a monster. I'm a cheater!

Looking at his tattered clothes, Long Yun's expression turned strange. This Martial Soul Possession is way too hard on clothes! Why do my clothes rip every time I possess my Martial Soul? I'd better prepare more clothes in the future!

What he did not know was that his normal height had already reached around 1.65 meters, more than ten centimeters taller than before. His old clothes had already become rather small and fit like tight clothing, but he had been too immersed in the joy of his rapidly increased strength to notice. Now, after Martial Soul Possession, he had grown another ten-plus centimeters and his body had expanded considerably as well. How could his clothes possibly not burst apart?

"Elder Yue Guan, would you like to test my First Soul Skill?" Long Yun asked Yue Guan with a somewhat mischievous look. After possessing his Martial Soul, Long Yun's voice had become slightly hoarse and more mature.

Yue Guan was briefly stunned by Long Yun's words, then immediately understood. "You brat, you're using me for practice? Still, I'm in a good mood today, so let me see what your First Soul Skill can do!" Yue Guan said with a smile.

"Then be careful, Chrysanthemum Elder. Here I come," Long Yun reminded him. It was not that he was truly afraid Yue Guan might fail to pay attention and get hurt by him. How could that be possible? He was a Titled Douluo—could Long Yun possibly injure him? Dream on. It was merely a polite warning.

As soon as he spoke, the dark yellow soul ring around Long Yun began to flicker, its yellow light growing brighter and brighter until it surpassed even the sun. After the dark yellow soul ring flashed, the Godking Martial Soul behind Long Yun immediately expanded five or six times over, growing to more than ten meters tall. Its body became even more burly, and the Divine Axe in its hands reached seven or eight meters in length, enormous beyond compare.

Long Yun moved his left hand toward his right and made a two-handed gripping motion. An invisible Divine Axe appeared at his right side, tightly gripped in both hands. The Godking Martial Soul behind him made the exact same motion. Then, with a slightly fierce expression, Long Yun swung the Divine Axe as though it were incomparably heavy, the movement consuming considerable strength. The Godking Martial Soul mirrored him precisely, swinging the Divine Axe in its hands as well.

The invisible Divine Axe in Long Yun's hands displayed no astonishing power; it looked like an ordinary axe swing. However, the Divine Axe wielded by the Godking Martial Soul behind him was far from ordinary. The instant it swung, an arc-shaped, blood-red axe light appeared, carrying an aura of destruction that inspired dread.

Boom! Boom!

The Divine Axe sliced through the air at incredible speed. Its immense force compressed the surrounding air until it boomed violently, surging toward Yue Guan with astonishing might.

Yue Guan was deeply shocked as he watched Long Yun's First Soul Skill. How is this a First Soul Skill? It's not inferior to many people's Third Soul Skills at all, Yue Guan complained inwardly.

Though he was shaken, Yue Guan's expression did not change much. He remained calm. This power had exceeded his expectations, but he was a Titled Douluo. It was still far from enough to harm him.

With a thought from Yue Guan, the surrounding Soul Power began to gather around him, while Soul Power also flowed out from within his body. The two streams of Soul Power merged, forming a transparent Soul Power barrier that enveloped him.

The Soul Power barrier appeared to be only a thin layer, but its defensive strength was astonishing. This was a method unique to Soul Douluo-level soul masters and above: releasing their Soul Power while drawing upon the Soul Power of heaven and earth to form a Soul Power barrier. Such a barrier could withstand the full-force attacks of many Soul Kings and even Soul Emperors. Of course, its exact defensive strength also depended on the caster's Soul Power Level and the amount of Soul Power they output.

Clang!

The blood-red axe light struck the Soul Power barrier head-on. The barrier was like a metal shield, and the Divine Axe produced an earth-shaking metallic collision when it struck. The shockwave from the impact swept outward like a storm, throwing up dust that filled the sky. Many trees creaked under the blast, while the sounds of numerous trunks toppling over rang out.

The Soul Power barrier suffered no damage at all, not even leaving behind a trace. Instead, the Divine Axe rebounded at a speed even faster than when it had arrived. At that moment, Long Yun felt an astonishing force surge through his hands. It was the recoil from the collision, forcing him back several steps.

After steadying himself, Long Yun shook his slightly numb hands and looked toward Yue Guan, his eyes filled with both shock and delight.

Although his attack had not harmed Yue Guan in the slightest, its power still exceeded Long Yun's expectations. A row of towering trees to Yue Guan's left rear had been neatly felled, their breaks incredibly smooth, as though they had been sliced through by some sharp blade. These trees were each around a meter in diameter, thick and massive. The fact that they had all been cut down showed just how powerful Long Yun's strike had been.

And that was only the damage caused by the axe light, not the Divine Axe itself. The Divine Axe's power would only be greater. Looking at the fallen trees, Long Yun felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment. This power is probably unmatched, he thought to himself.

Yue Guan stood where he was, somewhat dazed, disbelief written across his face. Only after a long while did he come back to his senses. As he looked at Long Yun, his eyes held both appreciation and strangeness, as though he were looking at a monster.

"Chrysanthemum Elder, how was it?" Long Yun asked expectantly as he withdrew his Martial Soul and quickly approached. To learn the exact power of the skill, he still needed to ask an expert like Yue Guan and hear his professional assessment.

"Haha, the power of your soul skill truly surprised me, kid!" Yue Guan laughed. "This skill of yours is immensely destructive. The name Massacre in All Directions truly lives up to its name. Your Divine Axe is exceptionally sharp, far sharper than many sword-type Martial Souls I have seen. That unparalleled sharpness, combined with its domineering power, pushes the might of this strike to an extreme. The strike you just unleashed would likely leave many defense-type Soul Elders unwilling to take it head-on," Yue Guan said seriously, his words brimming with shock.
