Seven days later, Two figures stood before the Worship Hall, sharing a gentle embrace.
"Sister Xue, I will wait for you."
Qian Renxue listened to Qin Tian's words, a tender smile blooming on her face, her eyes filled with affection.
"Little Tian, cultivate hard. Sister will be waiting for you in Heaven Dou City."
Hearing Qian Renxue's words, the corners of Qin Tian's mouth curled upward, a smug smile appearing on his face.
"Sister Xue, I am a level forty quasi-Soul Ancestor now. Once I obtain a suitable soul ring, I will be a Soul Ancestor."
"It won't take many years before I inevitably catch up to you, Sister Xue. You had better cultivate diligently, or you might find yourself surpassed by me."
Qian Renxue rolled her eyes at him, her voice tinged with helplessness.
"Little Tian, have you forgotten that I possess dual ultimate attributes? Even if I cultivate with all my might, but..."
"It is actually you who breaks through soul power as easily as drinking water or eating, which truly makes me envious."
Qin Tian laughed quite smugly upon hearing this.
After refining the Infernal Delicate Apricot and the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass to perform the Ice and Fire Golden Body Refinement, a miniature Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had formed within his body, causing him to absorb the free soul power of the world at every moment.
To put it bluntly, even if Qin Tian did not meditate, his soul power would accumulate on its own.
After Qin Tian and Qian Renxue poured out their hearts to each other, the two finally parted ways, watching as Qian Renxue departed until her figure vanished from sight.
"Little Tian."
A voice rang out beside his ear. Qin Tian pulled back his thoughts and turned to face the newcomer, his expression turning respectful.
"Teacher, Second Grandfather."
Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile Douluo looked toward the distant sky, their eyes also filled with reluctance.
"Little Tian, your soul power has been at level forty for a few days now. I have already had someone find a suitable soul ring for you; I will have Golden Crocodile take you there."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo with a smile.
"Second Grandfather, I am troubling you to accompany me on this trip again."
Golden Crocodile Douluo chuckled at Qin Tian's words.
"Little Tian, let us depart right now. You will definitely be satisfied with this soul ring."
As he finished speaking, Golden Crocodile Douluo flew toward the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Ling Yuan Douluo appeared from the void, summoned her martial soul, the Fire Phoenix, and brought Qin Tian onto its back to head toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
On the back of the Fire Phoenix, Qin Tian looked at Ling Yuan Douluo and smiled.
"Sister Ling Yuan, congratulations on the successful evolution of your martial soul. This is my first time seeing it."
Ling Yuan Douluo beamed with joy at Qin Tian's congratulations.
"Little Tian, thank you for giving me the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. If not for it, my martial soul would not have evolved."
"This time, not only did my martial soul evolve, but my soul power has reached level ninety-four. I am only one step away from becoming a Super Douluo."
As she said this, Ling Yuan Douluo looked at Qin Tian with deep tenderness.
"Little Tian, rest assured. From now on, as long as I am here, no one will be able to harm you."
Qin Tian nodded slightly at Ling Yuan Douluo's words, but he did not respond, instead looking toward the distant sky with an increasingly heavy heart.
Time was growing tighter; there were still over four years until the protagonist Tang San awakened his martial soul.
This meant he had only four more years. During this time, what he needed to do was cultivate with all his might, raise his strength, and then intercept Tang San's opportunities.
The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well had been intercepted by him. Without the aid of the immortal herbs, Tang San would be unable to perform the Ice and Fire Golden Body Refinement, and his Blue Silver Grass would not possess the ability to be immune to water and fire.
What remained to be done involved the Blue Silver Emperor's hundred thousand year soul bone, the Blue Silver King in the Blue Silver Forest, and Tang Hao.
Qin Tian was very curious to know what would happen to Tang San's personality without Tang Hao's protection.
Before he knew it, they had arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest. Ling Yuan Douluo, noticing that Qin Tian was still deep in thought, had to speak up to remind him.
"Little Tian, we have arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest."
Qin Tian heard Ling Yuan Douluo's voice, pulled back his thoughts, and looked down.
Towering trees stretched endlessly, the roars of beasts echoed incessantly, and a wild, ancient aura washed over them. Qin Tian felt as if he were remembering the Lost Trace Canyon, the corners of his mouth twitching upward as a hint of nostalgia appeared in his eyes.
The three of them landed in the mixed zone, with Golden Crocodile Douluo walking in the lead, heading straight toward their target.
Qin Tian felt quite expectant in his heart; what kind of soul beast would be suitable for him?
Under the guidance of Golden Crocodile Douluo, the trio arrived at their destination.
"Little Tian, this is the thirty-seven thousand year Holy Light White Tiger we have found for your fourth soul ring."
Qin Tian listened to Golden Crocodile Douluo and looked at the Holy Light White Tiger not far away, a flash of brilliance flickering through his eyes.
"Second Grandfather, I must trouble you to take action and capture it."
A Holy Light White Tiger with a cultivation age of over thirty-seven thousand years was, naturally, extremely suitable to become his fourth soul ring.
He had a premonition that he would certainly obtain a powerful soul skill this time.
His martial soul was the Holy Light Tiger King, which was extremely compatible with the Holy Light White Tiger; with such a suitable soul ring, he was highly expectant of his fourth soul skill.
Golden Crocodile Douluo took action, and in merely a few moments, the Holy Light White Tiger was already at its last gasp.
Seeing this, Qin Tian immediately stepped forward and drew his short sword to finish off the Holy Light White Tiger, putting an end to its suffering.
Specks of black light surged out from the body of the Holy Light White Tiger, and within the span of a few breaths, they had already formed a black soul ring.
Feeling the energy contained within the soul ring, Qin Tian did not hesitate in the slightest; he sat cross-legged and, after activating Martial Soul Possession, began to absorb the soul ring.
Guided by Qin Tian, the black soul ring hovered above his head, and the massive energy rushed toward him like a surging river, which Qin Tian refined with all his might.
While refining this terrifying energy into his own soul power, he simultaneously channeled this vast energy to strike at his blocked minor meridians.
"ROAR!"
Inside his Divine Sea, the remnant soul of the Holy Light White Tiger appeared and let out a heaven-shaking tiger roar.
Qin Tian immediately summoned his own martial soul, the Holy Light Tiger King; after his martial soul appeared, the remnant soul of the Holy Light White Tiger could not help but tremble in fear.
The Holy Light Tiger King was a superior soul beast to the Holy Light White Tiger, possessing absolute suppression.
Under Qin Tian's command, the Holy Light Tiger King pounced toward the remnant soul of the Holy Light White Tiger.
The remnant soul of the Holy Light White Tiger could not even put up a fight; under the deterrence of the Holy Light Tiger King, the remnant soul dissolved into specks of golden light, nourishing Qin Tian's mental sea.
An hour later, Qin Tian opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbid air, his face filled with a smile.
Seeing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo and Ling Yuan Douluo both knew that Qin Tian had obtained an excellent soul skill.
"Little Tian, looking at you, it seems you have obtained a soul skill that makes you very satisfied."
Listening to Golden Crocodile Douluo's words, Qin Tian nodded with a smile.
"Second Grandfather, the soul skill provided to me by the Holy Light White Tiger satisfies me greatly."
"Fourth soul skill, Holy Light Domain."
Qin Tian directly unleashed his fourth soul skill. As he cast it, scorching holy light radiated from him as the center, spreading outward until it stopped at a hundred meters.
Standing within it, Golden Crocodile Douluo and Ling Yuan Douluo felt the soul power in their bodies continuously draining away, their faces full of shock.
They knew the Holy Light White Tiger would provide Qin Tian with a good soul skill, but they had not expected it to be a domain-type soul skill.
