Sixth Soul Ring! Fusing the 1.2 Million-Year Golden Divine Dragon Martial Soul!

"What? Qingzhou actually has a Divine Being's inheritance?"

"Search! We must find it!"

"A Divine Being's inheritance—if I obtain it, wouldn't the whole world be mine to do as I please with from then on?"

Across Qingzhou's various counties, countless soul masters began searching everywhere for traces of the Divine Hall after receiving the news.

Places that had once been scarcely inhabited also became lively after news of the Divine Hall spread.

Clearly, everyone understood that if the Divine Hall existed, it had to be in some remote, sparsely populated place.

Otherwise, if it were in a densely populated area where people came and went every day, it would have been discovered long ago.

For a time, people willing to risk their lives ventured deep into every mountain range.

Although many soul beasts lived within those mountain ranges, they still went all out in order to find traces of the Divine Hall.

At the same time.

News of the Divine Hall began spreading from Qingzhou to the surrounding provinces.

Before long, Qingzhou and the nine provinces of the Central Martial Region had learned of the Qingzhou Divine Hall through all sorts of channels.

The Central Region Nine Provinces consisted of seventy-two counties.

Nearly every county received the news.

Within each county, countless large and small factions, as well as individual soul masters, whether strong or weak, traveled from tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of li away toward Qingzhou.

The news even spread beyond the Central Martial Region. The other four regions of the continent learned of it as well, and some factions from those regions likewise dispatched powerful experts to Qingzhou.

Sky City, Heavenly Pavilion.

After having the news spread, Lin Shu paid it no further attention.

Now that the news of the Divine Hall had spread, that Divine Hall Guardian Force should be having a headache.

This way, they would have no time to target him again, and Lin Shu could prepare for the auction in peace.

However, before that, Lin Shu still had to fuse his sixth soul ring first!

Lin Shu was now at level sixty-four Soul Power, yet he had never had the time to fuse his sixth soul ring. Now that he was free, he could finally give it a try.

Lin Shu took out the 1.2 million-year Golden Divine Dragon Soul Ring.

This soul ring was immensely powerful. Unlike the 1.05 million-year Dark Divine Phoenix fifth soul ring he had fused previously, it could not be fused directly.

To fuse the Golden Divine Dragon Soul Ring, he first had to overcome the lingering will within it.

Lin Shu took out the 1.2 million-year Golden Divine Dragon Soul Ring and tentatively communicated with the will lingering inside it.

Very soon, Lin Shu saw the phantom of a divine dragon.

At that moment.

Lin Shu seemed to have entered another world.

In this world, everything around him was void. Only a massive divine dragon stretched across heaven and earth.

The giant dragon was golden all over, its body far beyond the limit of what Lin Shu's naked eye could see. It was likely more than ten thousand zhang long.

A huge dragon head filled Lin Shu's vision. A single eye was larger than Lin Shu himself, while every dragon scale emitted dazzling golden light.

The next moment, a deafening voice rang out.

"Human, are you the one who wishes to fuse me as your soul ring?"

Lin Shu naturally admitted it openly.

"That's right. It's me."

"Very good. In that case, display all your abilities. If you can earn my recognition, I will willingly allow you to absorb me as a soul ring. If you cannot earn my recognition, then we are fated to meet but not fated to be together."

Lin Shu did not hesitate and immediately displayed all his abilities.

In an instant.

Both martial souls appeared.

The top-tier Tool Soul, the Langya Cauldron Martial Soul.

The Godly Martial Soul, the Devouring Martial Soul.

At the same time.

One soul ring after another appeared as well.

Of course, the first, second, third, and fourth soul rings could practically be ignored.

After all, while that was the optimal soul ring configuration on the continent, it was naturally insignificant before a divine dragon.

What Lin Shu displayed was his fifth soul ring, the one that had absorbed the 1.05 million-year Dark Divine Phoenix.

The Golden Divine Dragon looked at Lin Shu.

"Twin Martial Souls? So-so."

"Still, one of your martial souls has actually reached the godly level. That's not bad."

"However, that is still not enough for me to willingly allow you to absorb me."

The Golden Divine Dragon's enormous dragon eyes swept over Lin Shu. Looking at everything Lin Shu had displayed, it continued muttering.

"Hm? You actually absorbed a soul ring over a million years old!"

"And it was your fifth soul ring. How did you do that?"

"Could it be that a Divine Beast willingly sacrificed itself to you?"

Lin Shu offered no explanation.

The Golden Divine Dragon studied Lin Shu curiously and could not help but think a little more highly of him.

In its lifetime, it had seen far too many genius soul masters.

Genius soul masters with godly martial souls were countless.

The person before it possessed Twin Martial Souls, yet one of them had not even reached the godly level. Among all the soul masters it had seen, he could be considered among the lowest tier.

Yet such a low-tier soul master had a fifth soul ring exceeding a million years.

There were only two possibilities.

First, a voluntary sacrifice.

If that were the case, it meant the person before it possessed secrets it had yet to see. Otherwise, a Divine Beast over a million years old could not possibly have voluntarily sacrificed itself based solely on what he had displayed.

Second, the person before it possessed an extremely powerful background.

That Divine Beast over a million years old had been forced to sacrifice itself.

If so, it meant there was an expert behind this person who was no weaker than it had been in life.

But those two points alone were still not enough to make it willingly allow itself to be absorbed.

In life, its cultivation had reached 1.2 million years. It was a true god-level divine dragon.

It was not comparable to an ordinary Divine Beast like that fifth soul ring, which had only just surpassed a million years.

"Show me your secret!"

"I know you have a secret. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible for your fifth soul ring to absorb a soul ring over a million years old!"

"Rest assured, I am already dead. I will not covet your secret!"

Hearing the divine dragon's words, Lin Shu spoke directly.

"If I said that my God of Devouring Martial Soul could continuously devour and improve without limit, would that be enough?"

"What?"

The Golden Divine Dragon was startled.

"You mean a martial soul that can continuously grow?"

"How is that possible? I have never heard of such a thing!"

Lin Shu could not be bothered to waste words. From the pile of rewards he had received from previous draws, he selected several Seventh and Eighth Grade martial souls—high-grade martial souls—and directly devoured them.

As he devoured them, Lin Shu's Devouring Martial Soul indeed grew stronger. Although it did not advance to the next grade again, it had undeniably improved.

This made the Golden Divine Dragon believe Lin Shu's words.

"Good, good, good!"

"In that case, I am willing to invest in you!"

"I am willing to let you absorb me, but I ask that you agree to one condition. If you encounter the Golden Divine Dragon Clan in the future, I beg you to return my dragon remains to them!"

"As for where my dragon remains are, once you fuse my soul ring, my will shall be fused into you as well, and you will know their location!"

Hearing this, Lin Shu nodded.

"Alright, I agree."

As Lin Shu nodded in agreement, the Golden Divine Dragon instantly shot into his body.

Lin Shu also completely opened himself up and began fusing this 1.2 million-year Golden Divine Dragon Martial Soul.
