Douluo: One Thought of God and Demon, Inheriting the Dual God Positions of Good and Evil

Ling Yuan, who had been quietly watching from the side, was a little speechless.

The other party was, after all, an outstanding two-thousand-year spirit beast. Did he really expect to kill it with a single slash?

It was already outrageous that he could break through its defenses with a sword technique. Some Soul Ancestors could not even breach the Rock Armor Demon Ape's defense.

The injured Rock Armor Demon Ape began to feel afraid.

It plunged both hands into the ground, drawing on the earth's power to repair its shattered rock armor.

Qian Renxin did not rush to press his advantage.

He unleashed his Demon Martial Soul. Crimson demonic energy surged around his entire body, and the giant sword changed along with it.

The Rock Armor Demon Ape sensed that something was wrong and immediately turned to flee.

Yet in an instant, Qian Renxin, wreathed in demonic energy, caught up to it. The Greatsword in his hand had become far lighter, and countless blood-red sword gleams flew toward the demon ape.

The Rock Armor Demon Ape could only counterattack where it stood, throwing punch after punch at the figure.

Unfortunately, it was useless.

Enhanced by demonic energy, Qian Renxin was incredibly fast. Only faint afterimages could be seen as he dodged the attacks while circling its body and swinging his sword.

Each strike dealt little damage, leaving only shallow marks on the rock armor.

But his slashing speed was simply too fast. He could unleash dozens of sword gleams in nearly a second, and within merely four or five seconds, he completely shattered the rock armor.

Without the rock armor's protection, the demon ape completely panicked and tried to flee with its body covered in bloody wounds.

But it was painfully slow.

After being altered by the two Immortal Herbs, his demonic energy carried a frigid poison that would slowly take effect once it entered the body.

Seeing that escape was impossible, it let out pleading whimpers.

Qian Renxin ignored it.

He switched to his Divine Martial Soul and held the holy light greatsword before him. Divine power gathered throughout his body as his pure golden eyes silently watched the struggling demon ape.

He only needed two seconds to finish charging his attack.

Unless the injured demon ape could burst forth at a speed of twenty-five meters per second, it could not escape.

Naturally, that was impossible.

A swift golden flash streaked past. The demon ape was split in two, and a purple soul ring appeared.

Qian Renxin dismissed his God Form and God-Demon Giant Sword, saying with some regret, "What a pity. It didn't drop an External Soul Bone or anything..."

"Young Master, what are you even thinking? Soul bones don't drop that easily, especially not the rarest kind—External Soul Bones." Ling Yuan said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Qian Renxin said nothing more.

The treatment transmigrators received was simply incomprehensible to the natives.

Tang San had once obtained the External Soul Bone, Eight Spider Lances, from a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider.

He absolutely would not miss out on that cheat-like soul bone.

However, his main task at present was searching for soul rings, so he had not begun capturing Man Faced Demon Spiders on a large scale.

After all, the Star Dou Forest was enormous, and more than a decade remained before Tang San obtained that soul bone. If he truly searched for it, he would have to scour the entire mixed zone. That would be a massive undertaking.

After leaving the cliffside training grounds, Qian Renxin rode on Ling Yuan as they prepared to return to camp.

Halfway through the flight, he spotted a wind-element wolf-type spirit beast fleeing across the ground. It was agile, with a long, powerful build.

Farther away from the spirit beast, a group of soul masters was also pursuing it.

Seeing Qian Renxin's curiosity, Ling Yuan probed the situation with her spiritual power.

"Young Master, that's a Swift Wind Wolf King of around six thousand years. What do you think?"

"That one! It'll be my second soul ring!"

Qian Renxin made his decision at once.

Having inherited Li Xin's skills, his second soul ring was bound to be related to sword energy.

And if he wanted the God-Demon Giant Sword to unleash sword energy, a wind-element soul ring was the most suitable. Its attribute was mild and would not conflict with the two attributes of god and demon.

Around six thousand years was a little too much for him, but it was definitely within his limits.

"Alright!"

Ling Yuan was excited as well. She lowered herself and dove down.

She had not expected that simply bringing the Young Master out to practice his swordsmanship would lead them to such a great achievement.

Gui Mei had rendered the foremost service in obtaining the first soul ring, so he had been gifted a forty-thousand-year soul bone.

Given how generously Qian Renxin treated his own people, he certainly would not treat her poorly.

Chapter 21: Absorbing the Second Soul Ring, Encountering Godwind Academy

She flew into the air.

The Swift Wind Wolf King, which had been running, also sensed something in the sky rapidly closing in.

Feeling an intense sense of danger, its wolfish body shuddered. Dark green wind-attributed Soul Power surged from its entire body as it raced forward even faster.

But no matter how fast it was, it could not possibly escape a Titled Douluo with a flying martial soul.

"Fourth Soul Skill, Flame Vortex!"

Several flaming vortices appeared around the Swift Wind Wolf King, encircling it.

The Swift Wind Wolf King lowered its body fearfully, staring at the scorching crimson flames without daring to move carelessly.

Against a Titled Douluo's flames, even the slightest contact would likely leave it severely injured.

With a flap of Ling Yuan's wings, dozens of scorching feathers shot forth like arrows, piercing the Swift Wind Wolf King and grievously wounding it. It lay on the ground, twitching.

Using Spatial Leap, Qian Renxin jumped down from Ling Yuan's back, preparing to finish off the soul beast.

Just then, the Soul Master team that had been pursuing the Swift Wind Wolf King also caught up.

There were around a dozen Soul Masters in total. At their head was a middle-aged man in light green armor, watching Qian Renxin and the others with a grave expression.

He was Feng Lingtian, the principal of Godwind Academy, an eighty-first-rank Soul Douluo.

A Titled Douluo...?

His heart tightened as he stared at Ling Yuan flying in the sky, making a reasonable guess.

Then he looked at the calm and composed Qian Renxin.

If the one who had acted just now was a Titled Douluo, then what sort of person could ride atop a Titled Douluo?

"Principal, the Swift Wind Wolf King is about to be taken from us!"

A Soul Master beside him said anxiously.

He was a teacher at Godwind Academy. Once he absorbed this soul ring, he would become a Spirit King.

Generally speaking, one could attempt to challenge a ten-thousand-year black soul ring for their fifth soul ring.

But he was not that ambitious. A six-thousand-year purple soul ring would already be excellent. A ten-thousand-year soul ring required one to endure Soul Impact, which carried a certain degree of danger.

"Quiet!"

Feng Lingtian shot him a sideways glance, then stepped forward and cupped his fists. "I am Feng Lingtian, principal of Godwind Academy, an eighty-first-rank Soul Douluo. May I ask for this esteemed one's title?"

"Ling Yuan, ninety-third-rank Titled Douluo."

Ling Yuan swooped down and landed beside Qian Renxin, answering indifferently. Then she added, "This soul beast belongs to us. Any objections?"

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black!

Nine soul rings circled her body as an overbearing aura spread outward.

A ninety-third-rank Titled Douluo...

Feng Lingtian weighed the matter in his mind.

This time, he had brought nearly all of Godwind Academy's core members. There were two Spirit Sages and four Spirit Emperors alone.

Even so, the disparity in strength between the two sides remained enormous.

Moreover, making an enemy of a Titled Douluo was an exceedingly foolish thing to do.

What faction that possessed a Titled Douluo was not renowned and powerful? It was absolutely not something a small Godwind Academy could afford to provoke.

Offending a Titled Douluo over a six-thousand-year soul beast—

not even a lunatic would do something so absurd.

"This soul beast was defeated by Lady Ling Yuan, so it naturally belongs to you."

Feng Lingtian quickly weighed the pros and cons and spoke respectfully.

The middle-aged Spirit King did not dare utter a word either. Though unwilling, he could only swallow his resentment.

Such was the prestige of a Titled Douluo. Their mere appearance could suppress nearly every doubt.

Unless you were also a Titled Douluo, or possessed the strength of one.

Ling Yuan glanced at Qian Renxin.

As an elder of Spirit Hall, she was hardly someone softhearted.

As long as Qian Renxin wished it, she could wipe out this entire group right now.

Such things were not unusual in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Qian Renxin gently shook his head, indicating there was no need.

They had merely crossed paths, and the other party's attitude had been quite good. His desire to kill was not that strong.

From another perspective, if not for the commotion they had caused while hunting soul beasts, he might not have noticed this Swift Wind Wolf King that suited him so well.

Suddenly, Qian Renxin noticed a little boy hiding behind a Spirit Sage.

The boy had been born with white hair, handsome features, and a trace of fear in his eyes.

"Feng Xiaotian from Godwind Academy? Come to think of it, he should have awakened his martial soul long ago, shouldn't he?"

Qian Renxin guessed inwardly.

In the original work, he had also been considered a top-tier genius—Innate Full Soul Power, becoming a Soul Emperor at twenty-nine, and possessing a Self-Created Soul Skill. His accomplishments had only been slightly inferior to Xie Yue's.

Seeing Qian Renxin looking at Feng Xiaotian, Ling Yuan gave him a few more glances as well and asked curiously, "At his age, he already has level thirteen soul power. Could he have Innate Full Soul Power?"

"My son indeed has Innate Full Soul Power."

Vice Principal Feng Qingyuan stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

Meanwhile, Qin Qiuyue held Feng Xiaotian in her arms, somewhat regretting bringing the child out to hunt soul beasts.

Originally, she had wanted the talented Feng Xiaotian to gain an early understanding of the soul master system. She had never expected to run into something like this.

If some Titled Douluo of unknown origins truly forced him to become his disciple, it was hard to say whether that would be a good thing or a bad one.

Seeing how nervous they were, Ling Yuan sneered and waved a hand.
