Facing Sword Douluo's proposal, Lin Yuan nodded impassively, fighting spirit surging in his eyes.
"Alright, then."
"I've long heard that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda is the continent's number one support Martial Soul, possessing formidable supportive abilities. Today, I'd like to experience them firsthand."
Hearing Lin Yuan's praise, Ning Rongrong's little face instantly blossomed into a radiant smile.
Yet Lin Yuan's mind was utterly clear.
Innate Full Soul Power? Eight Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda?
It seemed Ning Rongrong had gotten lucky and snagged something good from the system.
Otherwise, with the flaw ingrained in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda's very genes, how could she possibly possess Innate Full Soul Power?
But this was good too.
Since she had tasted the benefits and wanted to evolve into a true Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, she would be even less able to leave him in the future.
Lin Yuan looked at the young girl opposite him, whose entire body radiated a dangerous aura, without the slightest fear in his heart.
A poison-control Soul Master?
As long as he did not let the poison get close, or simply dealt with the one releasing it, the poison was useless.
Afterward, Dugu Bo and the others cleared the space for Lin Yuan, Ning Rongrong, and Dugu Yan.
Xiao Wu stood at the edge of the field, her two pink Rabbit ears standing tall.
She watched the young man in black in the arena. Although she was still jealous over his "gentle" attitude toward Ning Rongrong earlier,
she still clenched her little fists, her large eyes filled with encouragement, and made a cheering gesture. "Lin Yuan, go!"
"Let this fierce woman see how amazing you are!"
Dugu Yan: ???
Lin Yuan turned back and gave Xiao Wu a slight smile. Then he turned around, the gentleness in his eyes instantly vanishing, replaced by fighting spirit as sharp as a Spear tip.
"Ning Rongrong, begin."
Lin Yuan spoke calmly.
"Alright!"
Ning Rongrong cried out sweetly.
She spread open her hand, as smooth as White Jade, and the surging Soul Power within her instantly began to flow.
"Eight Treasures Name!"
"One says: Strength!"
Beneath Ning Rongrong's feet, a yellow Hundred-Year Soul Ring slowly rose.
The eight-tiered pagoda floating above her palm instantly burst with dazzling, brilliant light!
A concentrated multicolored stream of light shot unerringly into Lin Yuan's body.
On the day she awakened her Martial Soul, she had gone to obtain a first Soul Ring suitable for herself, and this Soul Ring was over three hundred years old.
As a Support Soul Master, whether her Soul Ring Age was three hundred or four hundred years made little difference.
Nor would the sect allow her to risk absorbing a Soul Ring close to the theoretical limit. After all, she was merely a support-type Soul Master. Under normal circumstances, her physique would find absorbing a four-hundred-year Soul Ring rather strenuous.
Even though she later obtained a Movement Martial Skill because of the system, that martial skill focused primarily on agility and did not greatly enhance her physique.
As Lin Yuan sensed the twenty percent increase in strength within his body, his current power, bolstered by this Martial Soul, was enough to rival a Soul Master at the peak level.
He could not help but praise it. "Is this the continent's number one support Martial Soul? It truly lives up to its reputation!"
Feeling the surging power within him, Lin Yuan looked at Dugu Yan opposite him, a faint curve appearing at the Corner of the Mouth.
"Miss Dugu, please enlighten me!"
"Hmph! You think you're something just because you have support?"
"This Miss is a Level 27 Soul Grandmaster!"
Dugu Yan cried out sweetly, a cold gleam flashing through her Emerald Green eyes.
"First Soul Skill, Jade Phosphorous Red Poison!"
As the first yellow Soul Ring beneath her feet suddenly lit up,
a pale red poison mist instantly erupted outward from her as its center!
The Red Mist did not spread immediately. Instead, like nimble venomous snakes carrying a sweetly fishy scent, it clung to the ground and swept toward Lin Yuan at tremendous speed!
Jade Phosphorous Red Poison!
This was an exceptionally sinister stimulant poison.
Once inhaled or allowed to touch the skin, it would stimulate the nerves and force the opponent into a state of unhealthy excitement.
Their heartbeat would accelerate, their blood would flow faster, their stamina would be drained, and they would ultimately die from exhaustion!
Though it was not a Highly poisonous venom that killed upon drawing blood, in battle, this weakening effect was often more deadly than direct damage!
"Poison mist?"
Watching the overwhelming red mist rush toward him, Lin Yuan's gaze remained utterly calm.
He did not hold his breath like an ordinary Soul Master, nor did he retreat in panic to evade it. Instead, he slowly raised the God-Slaying Spear in his hand.
Against this kind of wide-range poison mist, evasion was the inferior choice.
Because no matter how fast one was, one still had to breathe, and one's skin still had to come into contact with the air.
Once engulfed by the poison mist, one would become a turtle trapped in a jar.
The only solution was—break it!
"Before absolute sharpness, this poison mist is nothing more than a joke."
Soul Power within Lin Yuan's body surged madly into the spear shaft, and that incomparably tyrannical Spear Intent instantly erupted!
"Break!"
Lin Yuan shouted in a low voice and swept his spear fiercely!
Boom!
A terrifying forceful wind, carrying sharp Spear Intent, instantly erupted from the God-Slaying Spear's tip!
The menacing red poison mist, which seemed ready to swallow everything, was violently torn apart and blown away the instant it touched that forceful wind!
The originally dense Poison Barrier instantly became incredibly thin, even dispersing directly into the air!
And that was not all!
The Spear Intent did not lose momentum. It pierced directly through the scattered poison mist, transforming into an invisible sharp blade that shot straight toward Dugu Yan behind it!
"What?!"
Dugu Yan's pupils suddenly contracted, her face filled with disbelief.
Her Emerald Green eyes widened round, as though she had witnessed something utterly inconceivable.
"Blown... blown away?"
"My Jade Phosphorous Red Poison was actually broken by him with such a simple method?"
How could this be possible?
What kind of monster was this?
Even with Ning Rongrong's support, it could not possibly be this terrifying!
It was not as though she had never fought other Soul Masters with Weapon Martial Souls. Quite a few Soul Masters had entertained this idea as well, hoping to blow away her poison mist with a forceful wind.
But how could poison mist condensed from Soul Power be blown away by an ordinary forceful wind?
So this was Spear Intent!
"No! I don't believe it!"
Dugu Yan's competitive spirit was thoroughly provoked.
"Then try this! I refuse to believe you can blow this away too!"
Dugu Bo's Second Soul Ring appeared beneath her feet.
"Second Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Blue Poison!"
This time, what the Jade Phosphorous Serpent spat from its mouth was no longer red mist, but a denser, colder blue poison mist!
This blue poison possessed powerful paralysis and corrosive effects. It was also more condensed than the red poison, pressing down like a tangible torrent of water!
"Useless."
Faced with this even fiercer assault, Lin Yuan merely shook his head lightly.
"I told you."
"Before my spear, mist is just mist."
"No matter what color it is, it cannot block my path!"
Lin Yuan's gaze sharpened, and his aura rose once again.
This time, he no longer held back. He used the martial skill contained in the First Layer of the Chaos God-Slaying Record.
Dawn Break!
