Xiao Feng looked over his basic info and felt it wasn't bad. At a glance, it was simple and clear, especially his Immortal Killing Sword's first soul skill—that one was a real thrill!

True to its name, Dark Harvest. Every time he killed someone, this soul skill would absorb their soul and provide the host with a permanent dark passive equal to ten percent of the deceased's strongest single-target attack before death, and this passive had no cooldown.

Maybe this soul skill didn't offer much of a boost to ordinary people, but for Xiao Feng, it was different. Most people could only farm opponents of the same level, but not Xiao Feng. With Rui Mengmeng by his side, he could directly farm Title Douluo-level powerhouses. Just imagine—ten percent of a Title Douluo's strongest single-target attack per layer, and ten layers would be one hundred percent. That was utterly invincible!

But obviously, Xiao Feng looked down on doing that. You ask why?

Xiao Feng: "Invincibility is so lonely. Becoming invincible right away would make life way too boring! Anyway, with Daddy System backing me, I can't die even if I mess around. Invincibility can wait—I'll deal with it after I've had my fun."

Still, for this soul skill, Xiao Feng thought of one place: Slaughter City. There, he could farm this skill's passive. Even though there was a restriction on using soul skills there, who was he? The system's spoiled son. Rules? He was the rule!

But for now, talking about this was still a bit early. After all, Xiao Feng was just a six-year-old brat. For the time being, he'd just farm casually. He wouldn't run into any strong enemies anytime soon, so there was no rush.

Soon, Xiao Feng and Tang San set off again on their journey to find soul beasts. However, just after taking a dozen steps, a "severely injured" Explosive Earth Armor Tiger lay ahead, staring at Xiao Feng with a resentful look.

Its meaning was basically: "Hurry up, give me a quick end again. I'm done with work and want to rest."

Tang San was also confused, but he quickly convinced himself. The previous soul beast and this one had mutually wounded each other—that explanation was perfectly reasonable. Besides, Tang San didn't think this soul beast had been sent to them by someone else.

The Immortal Killing Sword swung again, and a purple soul ring emerged. This was a three-thousand-year soul ring. With the boost from the previous soul ring, the maximum soul ring age Xiao Feng could withstand had increased to three thousand years, so absorbing it was no pressure at all.

This time, Tang San had learned his lesson and didn't prepare to guard Xiao Feng. Sure enough, in less than a breath, the soul ring absorption was complete.

Tang San could only sigh: "This is so unfair! I'm so jealous. It takes me forever to absorb a four-hundred-year soul ring, but Brother Xiao Feng absorbs thousand-year soul rings like it's nothing. The gap between people is just too huge. There's no comparison. Who's really the protagonist here?"

After absorbing his second soul ring, Xiao Feng's soul power rose again, directly reaching level twenty-seven! His physical fitness also took a big leap. Now, Xiao Feng felt he was invincible below level thirty and hard to beat below level forty.

Xiao Feng's invincibility wasn't just talk—this confidence came from his second soul skill.

"Second Soul Skill, God Collector!"

When this soul skill was activated, his attacks would carry a seventy percent armor-piercing effect and a twenty percent critical strike effect. Imagine landing a critical hit while piercing armor with one slash—who could withstand that?

Even pure defense-type soul masters couldn't take it, let alone other types. What was even more insane was the skill's passive effect: for enemies with health below five percent, the host's attack would directly execute them.

This passive effect completely denied any chance of a last-ditch comeback from low health. If health dropped below five percent, sorry, instant kill. Turning the tables at the last moment? Not happening. This was the confidence that let Xiao Feng claim invincibility in low-level matches.

Honestly, these two soul rings from the system were truly broken!

Xiao Feng was thrilled, while Tang San was numbed and even more determined to stick with Xiao Feng. Hitching his wagon to Brother Xiao Feng was the way to go!

On the side, having dealt with the soul ring issue, Xiao Feng tossed the Husky back to its original spot. The Er Ha, far away in the Star Dou Forest, saw it was back there again and excitedly disappeared into the forest, soon followed by a commotion.

Tang San had obtained his soul ring and set his future direction, while Xiao Feng had also gotten his soul ring, laying the foundation for future invincibility. Then, the two began their return journey.

But as they walked, Xiao Feng sensed something was off. At the same time, the system's voice rang out.

[Dear host, three Soul Saint-level ants are heading your way from ahead. There's a ninety-nine percent chance they're coming for you.]

"Someone's coming!"

Hearing the system's words, Xiao Feng's remark immediately put Tang San on alert. Seeing no panic on Xiao Feng's face, Tang San relaxed a bit but didn't let his guard down.

Until three black-robed figures appeared. They looked at Xiao Feng, exchanged glances, and one of them spoke: "You're Xiao Feng, right? We've been sent by the Pope to invite you to join Spirit Hall."

Xiao Feng immediately understood. Su Yuntao must have reported the news to Spirit Hall, and they had sent people.

In response to the black-robed man's words, Xiao Feng just smiled and said: "If Bibi Dong herself came to invite me to join Spirit Hall, I might consider it. But obviously, she didn't show sincerity, so I refuse."

Hearing Xiao Feng directly call their Pope by name, the black-robed men all grew furious.

"One last chance. Submit to Spirit Hall and live. Refuse, and die!"

Both sides were straightforward. However, Xiao Feng smiled and said: "Make your move!"

The next second, colorful soul rings lit up on the three black-robed men. But Xiao Feng's "Make your move" wasn't meant for them—it was for Rui Mengmeng.

A spatial ripple appeared, and Rui Mengmeng emerged with a grin, a greatsword on her shoulder. "Oh, which blind fools dare to lay a hand on my young master?"

As soon as Rui Mengmeng finished speaking, a flash of sword light passed. The three Soul Saint-level powerhouses lay on the ground like ants, their limbs severed, blood pooling. After a brief silence, they finally reacted and began to wail in agony.

Seeing this, Xiao Feng and Tang San showed no sympathy. Xiao Feng walked up to them and asked: "I ask, you answer. If I'm satisfied, I'll let you go."

"First, how many of you came?"

"Just the three of us and Elder Yue Guan."

"Where's Yue Guan?"

"In Nuoding City."

Upon hearing this news, Xiao Feng immediately had a bad feeling and quickly asked the system, "System, what about Xiao Wu?"

[Uh... Xiao Wu is currently being restrained by a Title Douluo.]

Hearing this, Xiao Feng's heart turned cold, and boundless rage surged within him. In his fury, he completely failed to notice the slight hesitation in the system's tone—it wasn't wrong; Tang Hao was indeed a Title Douluo.

Xiao Feng raised his blade and swiftly killed the three men before him, then immediately said to Rui Mengmeng in front of him, "Rescue Xiao Wu and bring the one restraining her to me."

With the system's guidance, Rui Mengmeng understood the situation at once. She vanished entirely, and when she reappeared, she was already in Nuoding City.

"Little Haozi, oh, Little Haozi, it's not that big sis wants to beat you up, but your luck is just too rotten."

At that moment, Tang Hao was still in high spirits. He looked at the terrified Xiao Wu before him and said, "Once Little San and Young Master Xiao Feng return, I'll present you to Young Master Xiao Feng."

Hearing the names "Little San" and "Young Master Xiao Feng" from Tang Hao's mouth, Xiao Wu tentatively asked, "Are the Little San and Young Master Xiao Feng you mentioned Tang San and Xiao Feng?"

If she hadn't asked, it would have been fine, but her question sent a chill down Tang Hao's spine, as if he sensed something was terribly wrong.

The next second, Rui Mengmeng's figure appeared.

"Little Haozi, it's not that I want to beat you up, but you've really got some nerve—daring to touch Young Master Xiao Feng's people?"

In that instant, Tang Hao's heart sank. "It's over..."
