Moon Nether Shadow Cat

In Zhu Zhuqing's room, the night was deep.

She gently pulled aside the heavy curtains, and the bright moonlight immediately poured in like shattered silver.

This was something Lu Chen had specifically instructed her to do, to absorb the pill under the moonlight.

Taking a deep breath of the night air, cool with dew, she calmed her restless heart and swallowed the pill.

The pill dissolved upon entering her mouth, and a warm, moist current spread through her limbs and bones like melting spring snow, finally flowing steadily into her dantian.

The next second, a faint black mist began to appear on Zhu Zhuqing's body, a sign that her Nether Soul Power was being stimulated to its extreme by the pill.

Her figure gradually became enveloped in the black mist, with only two points of dark green and azure ethereal light flickering within.

The moonlight outside the window shone upon Zhu Zhuqing's body, and strands of silver light merged into her form.

The faint black mist on her body was gradually covered by a thin layer of silver gauze, and her originally heterochromatic pupils were now also veiled in a layer of silver light.

A palm-sized phantom of a black kitten appeared from the black mist. Its fur was not purely black but gleamed with a deep-sea-like azure sheen.

The Hell Spirit Cat Phantom curled up in the moonlight, and strands of Moon Soul Power fell upon it.

Bit by bit, it filled the subtle imperfections of the Hell Spirit Cat Martial Soul, making the phantom more solid.

As the Moon Soul Power surged in, a low hum emanated from the black mist.

Her heterochromatic cat pupils turned into a silver-gray gradient, the tips of her cat ears were adorned with a striking silver-white, and the front of her Nether Claws condensed a layer of silver-white cold light.

Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power Level began to climb rapidly, soaring from thirty-one.

Thirty-two... thirty-three... thirty-four...

It only stopped steadily at level thirty-eight.

The black mist dissipated, and Zhu Zhuqing's eyes turned silver-gray. A pair of fluffy black cat ears appeared on top of her head, with a wisp of silver-white fur on the tips, trembling slightly with her breathing. A slender cat tail quietly extended behind her.

A silver-white "crescent moon" mark appeared on her forehead, its patterns as delicate as carvings.

Her already porcelain-white skin, under the moonlight, actually exuded a hint of jade-like translucence.

Zhu Zhuqing looked at the changes in her body, her eyes filled with unconcealed joy.

Her martial soul had now evolved into the "Moon Nether Shadow Cat."

This was a long-extinct martial soul that contained the Moon Nether Power within, and could even cultivate by borrowing the Moonlight Power from the moon.

From this moment on, her martial soul had no connection whatsoever with the White Tiger Martial Soul.

Because the White Tiger Martial Soul was no longer worthy of being compared to the Moon Nether Shadow Cat Martial Soul!

With a thought, Zhu Zhuqing quietly put away the Moon Nether Shadow Cat Martial Soul.

Her gaze fell upon the crystal clear purple bracelets on her wrist, and a layer of gentle affection involuntarily crept into her eyes.

Her heart trembled, and Zhu Zhuqing quietly pushed open the room door. After confirming that Xiao Wu was still absorbing her pill, She slowly walked into the living room, where Lu Chen was sitting on the sofa.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing approach, Lu Chen asked, "How was it? A great harvest, right?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, her black eyelashes trembled, and Lu Chen's figure was clearly reflected in her eyes.

Her voice carried a bit more tenderness than usual, "En, my martial soul... evolved."

Lu Chen's gaze swept over her translucent skin, and he said with a hint of teasing, "As expected of Water Immortal Jade Muscle Bone, the beauty-enhancing effect is truly remarkable."

"Lu Chen, I like--"

Zhu Zhuqing, after much deliberation, was about to speak the words hidden in her heart when she was interrupted by a light sound of footsteps.

Xiao Wu ran down from upstairs and pounced directly into Lu Chen's arms, her arms wrapped around his neck, her shapely buttocks sitting on his lap, her slender, firm legs resting by his side.

The affection in Xiao Wu's eyes for Lu Chen was undisguised, and it seemed as if pink light flowed within her pupils.

"Lu Chen, my soul power increased by a whole eight levels. Tell me, how should I repay you?"

Xiao Wu tilted her head slightly, her pink lips moving closer to Lu Chen's.

Lu Chen reached out and gently pressed against her lips, slowly saying, "You're still too young."

Xiao Wu was stunned by his words. She subconsciously lowered her head to look at her chest, then glanced at Zhu Zhuqing beside her, her cheeks instantly puffing up like baozi.

She reached out and lightly punched Lu Chen's chest, saying indignantly, "I knew it! Lu Chen, you're a big pervert, you only like big ones!"

Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face turned bright red. At this moment, her heart felt like a fawn was leaping wildly, and even the roots of her ears felt hot.

Lu Chen gently held Xiao Wu to the side and tapped the top of her head with his right index finger, his tone a mixture of amusement and helplessness, "I meant age, what did you think?"

Seeing that she couldn't tease Lu Chen, Xiao Wu pouted and turned to pounce into Zhu Zhuqing's embrace.

She buried her head in Zhu Zhuqing's chest and deliberately snuggled, curiously asking, "Zhuqing, why have you become even more beautiful again?"

"Ah~~~"

Zhu Zhuqing let out a startled cry at her sudden action. Her pretty face flushed like a ripe cherry, and she quickly reached out to push her away, her voice trembling slightly, "What are you doing..."

Lu Chen watched the lively scene for a few minutes. Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was about to be overwhelmed, He then picked up Xiao Wu and said, "Xiao Wu! Stop bothering Zhuqing."

At the same time, Shrek Academy outside Suotuo City in the Balak Kingdom.

Yu Xiao Gang stared at the Eight Spider Legs on Tang San's back, his voice filled with suppressed excitement. "Xiao San, this is an External Soul Bone ranked second on the Soul Master Dream Ranking!"

"External Soul Bone?" Tang San looked at the spider legs on his back, his eyes full of confusion.

"External Soul Bones are special existences besides the six main soul bones. They have growth potential and can Evolve as the Soul Master's Cultivation increases!"

Tang San looked at the Eight Spider Legs on his back and murmured, "But I always feel... something's not quite right with this External Soul Bone, like there's some subtle flaw."

Yu Xiao Gang's eyebrows furrowed, then he spoke, "I will stay at Shrek for the foreseeable future. This External Soul Bone has already completely fused with your Spine Bone and become a part of your body. If something goes wrong, it could endanger your life. Therefore, I must stay and keep an eye on it."

"Teacher isn't leaving? That's wonderful."

Upon hearing that Master would stay to continue guiding his cultivation, Tang San was overjoyed and completely cast his recent doubts aside.

Yu Xiao Gang patted Tang San's shoulder. "Xiao San, do you know that your current talent is unmatched among Soul Masters of your age!"

Hearing this, Tang San couldn't help but think of Lu Chen and slowly said, "Teacher, Lu Chen has become even stronger. I'm afraid I'm no match for him!"

"Xiao San, you must remember that you are the third owner of Twin Martial Souls in the history of the Douluo Continent."

A curve of disdain hooked the corner of Yu Xiao Gang's mouth, his tone filled with Undeniable certainty. "As for that Lu Chen, he will only be worthy of becoming your stepping stone in the future!"

Hearing this, Tang San seemed to see a Scene of him defeating Lu Chen, a trace of longing appearing in his eyes!
