Third Soul Skill, Formless Dharma Body

At this moment...

After crippling that Mountain-Moving Ape with a single punch...

Ning Feng took another look at the lifeless Mountain-Moving Ape lying in a pool of blood.

"Is this the end?"

"Very well, I'll send you on your way."

He didn't hesitate, walking forward to raise his right foot and stomping down hard on the Mountain-Moving Ape's skull.

With the sound of shattering bone, this soul beast breathed its last.

Bang!

A deep purple soul ring slowly emerged from the corpse of the Mountain-Moving Ape.

Vina stood to the side, watching the soul ring with a clear smile on her face.

She said to Ning Feng, "Congratulations, Young Master Ning Feng. You have finally found the soul ring you desired."

The middle-aged soul master also nodded, his expression relaxing slightly. "It is indeed worth celebrating. However, Young Master Ning Feng, since the soul beast has been dealt with and the soul ring has appeared, you should hurry and absorb it."

"Right!" Nodding, Ning Feng said no more.

He sat cross-legged beside the corpse of the Mountain-Moving Ape.

Then, he closed his eyes and began to guide the soul ring toward him.

Soon, The purple halo slowly descended, enveloping his body.

Time ticked by, second by second.

An hour later.

The soul power fluctuations on Ning Feng's body suddenly became intense, then quickly stabilized.

He opened his eyes, stood up, and stretched his limbs.

He felt his soul power surging within him; his cultivation had successfully broken through to level 32.

The middle-aged soul master observed Ning Feng's state carefully and looked somewhat surprised. "Young Master Ning Feng, it seems your absorption process went very smoothly, and your physical strength is significantly greater than it was just a moment ago."

Ning Feng felt the changes in his body and nodded with a smile, though at this moment, he was more eager to test the third soul skill he had just acquired.

So, he quickly said to Vina and the others, "I'm going to test my new ability first."

Vina nodded and stepped back a few paces. "Please, go ahead."

As for Ning Feng, he remained where he was, then moved his mind to instantly activate his martial soul.

Three Heads and Six Arms manifested immediately. To be fair, as Ning Feng's soul power level continued to rise, his physical strength had also received a massive boost. He was much stronger than before—this was the advantage of a Body Martial Soul.

"Third soul skill, Formless Dharma Body!"

With this low shout, Ning Feng's physique underwent a change.

His body grew by fifty centimeters, and his already solid muscles bulged, the lines becoming thicker, with every muscle fiber filled with explosive power.

At this moment, Ning Feng clenched his fists, feeling the soul power surging within him; he knew that all his attributes had been greatly enhanced.

"This is the amplification brought by the third soul ring," Ning Feng whispered to himself.

He could feel that in this state, his overall attributes and strength had increased by ninety percent.

However, to test his full power, he mobilized three soul skills.

"Three Saints Suppress the World!"

"Six Paths Heaven-Opening!"

"Formless Dharma Body!"

Three rays of light enveloped Ning Feng simultaneously.

His figure was now a full size larger than usual, and his eyes shimmered with golden light.

He then walked over to a nearby rock wall.

Gathering all his strength into his right fist, he swung all six of his arms at once.

"Six Extremes Heaven-Collapsing Fist!"

"Ape Form Fist!"

"Six Extremes: Collapse Fist!"

Six distinct punch forces slammed into the exact same spot on the rock wall at the same instant.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, gravel scattered everywhere.

A deep fist mark appeared on the rock wall, and from the edges of the impact, massive cracks spread out like a spiderweb, extending for several meters.

And upon seeing this scene, Vina, Mu Xue, and Ning Feng stood in the back, all of them stunned.

They stared at that indented fist mark, remaining silent for a long time.

As for that middle-aged soul master, being a Soul King, his perception of power was the sharpest.

He stared at the fist mark, his voice dry: "With this kind of destructive power, if it landed on a person, an ordinary individual would absolutely not be able to withstand it. I even feel that if a defensive soul master of the same third ring were to see Young Master Ning Feng in the future, they might be killed in a single blow."

Vina's eyes flickered with irrepressible excitement; she looked at Ning Feng as if she were seeing a perfect masterpiece: "Truly amazing..."

"Let's go." Ning Feng retracted his martial soul, and his body returned to its normal state.

Afterward, he turned his head and said to Vina, "Since the soul ring has been obtained, there is no need for us to continue staying in the Star Dou Great Forest."

"Alright, let's head to the Body Sect."

Vina nodded: "Very well, please follow me."

The group of four quickly left the area.

Half an hour later.

Three figures appeared in this low-lying rocky terrain.

They were none other than Beibei, Huo Yuhao, and Tang Ya.

The three emerged from the nearby dense forest; they had all come to investigate after hearing the commotion from this place earlier.

However, at this very moment, Beibei looked at the wreckage covering the ground, his brows locked in a frown.

He crouched down to examine the traces left beside the corpse of the Mountain-Moving Ape, then looked at the shattered stone wall nearby.

"The traces of battle here are very heavy." Beibei stood up, his expression grave.

"The wounds on this soul beast should have been caused by some powerful external force that forcibly crushed its internal organs to kill it. This method is extremely brutal; it doesn't look like the work of a soul master, but rather like a fight between two powerful soul beasts."

Tang Ya shrank her neck to the side, saying with lingering fear: "So brutal? It seems we were right not to run into them earlier; otherwise, either one of those soul beasts could have finished us off."

Huo Yuhao, however, walked up to that massive rock wall.

He looked at the deeply indented fist mark, crouched down, and reached out to touch the edge of the print.

"Big Brother Beibei, come look at this." A hint of trembling was in Huo Yuhao's voice.

Beibei walked over, and the moment he saw the fist mark, his pupils constricted sharply, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face: "This is... a human fist mark?"

"Look at the center of the print here." Huo Yuhao pointed at the center of the mark.

"A soul beast's fist mark couldn't possibly look like this; this is definitely a trace left by a human soul master."

"To think such a thing could happen... It seems I guessed wrong before."

Beibei drew a sharp breath; he looked up at the cracks spreading across the rock wall and muttered to himself.

"However, to be able to cause such terrifying power, that soul master's cultivation must certainly not be weak. I feel that this would require at least a cultivation level of over level forty..."

Huo Yuhao stood where he was, looking at the fist mark, his heart unable to calm down for a long time.

That kind of power made him feel an unprecedented yearning.

If only he could possess this kind of strength as well.

If that were the case, he would have been able to protect his mother back then.
