This was ruining everything!
He was busy!
"Uh..."
Tang San was speechless.
It felt like this kid had gone completely off the rails, following Yellow Hair with unwavering devotion.
But he was his own son, after all. He couldn't just ignore him...
"Calm down."
Forget it. As long as the little brat was happy, that was all that mattered. The love between men had been praised in Bashu since ancient times.
Tang San didn't mind.
Besides, he still had another daughter. He'd talk to Dai Yuhao later. The child would take her mother's surname—Tang!
For now, all he had to do was make sure Tang Wulin absorbed the Golden Dragon King's power without being possessed by him.
As for everything else, Tang San couldn't be bothered.
He didn't have the energy or the ability to deal with it...
Rumble!!!
Under the Spirit Pagoda staff's dumbfounded gazes,
Ji Fengyu's Dragon Clan Squad charged left and right, cutting through the beast tide and scattering it in every direction.
A vast amount of energy gathered above Ji Fengyu, forming a mushroom cloud.
Like a fissure in the abyss, he began to gulp down the massive amounts of spiritual power.
As time passed in the Riot Period Spirit Ascension Platform,
the Soul Beasts grew more and more frenzied,
until they'd lost all reason. They only knew how to kill, completely out of control.
In these circumstances, no one had to worry about scaring the Soul Beasts away. They could simply start a mad feeding frenzy.
"What's going on?!"
"Are those guys... cheating?!"
Ji Fengyu's spectacular display, with purple energy rising three thousand miles to the east, was impossible to miss.
But his cloud of spiritual power had grown so huge
that no one else dared to approach it, let alone compete with him for it!
Just imagine how terrifying Ji Fengyu and his companions must be to kill so many Soul Beasts!
The moment the others saw them, they ran as far as they could. Those who couldn't get away were crushed in despair beneath the Dragon Clan Squad's advance.
"Break through!!!"
Nourished by the whole squad's frenzied feeding frenzy, Ji Fengyu broke through to the third ring with ease!
Level 31!
Purple, purple, purple!
Purple, purple, purple!
Six brand-new purple Soul Rings appeared beneath his feet, and his two Spirit Souls, the Seven-Colored Crown and the Rouge Soft-Muscle Python, evolved into Thousand-Year Soul Spirits!
Colorful dragon scales appeared on the Seven-Colored Crown, which radiated an immense Dragon Might.
The Rouge Soft-Muscle Python's body swelled several times over, growing enormous. A faint golden line appeared along its spine.
From now on, it should be called the Rouge Dragon-Muscle Python!
After Ji Fengyu broke through to the third ring, the entire Dragon Clan Squad went completely berserk!
That was because Ji Fengyu's third boost was Defense Boost!
Strength, attack, defense—
Ji Fengyu, Tang Wulin, Na'er, Xie Xie, and Wang Jinxi: all five had been outfitted like superhumans!
What followed
was pure slaughter!
Whether Soul Beasts or Soul Masters, they were nothing but walking stores of spiritual power in the face of a Dragon Clan Squad with such high attack and defense.
They were ruthlessly crushed!
The squad was like a band of bandits sweeping through, looting the entire Spirit Ascension Platform during its Riot Period.
Soul Beasts couldn't spawn fast enough to keep up with them.
"Actually, I'm a Power Attack System Soul Master, too."
After beating a thousand-year Soul Beast to death, Ji Fengyu handed its spiritual power over to his teammates and leisurely rolled his wrists.
With the base stats of his Second Martial Soul's Flawless Golden Body,
a 130% boost to all attributes,
and the 300% boosts to strength, attack, and defense he'd received from Tang Wulin and the others,
it was no exaggeration to say that he came with a full set of Three-Word Battle Armor.
Now that was a Power Attack System Soul Master!
He was a support Soul Master who hit even harder than the Power Attack System.
So when the Spirit Ascension Platform's guardian, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, appeared in front of Ji Fengyu,
he didn't panic at all. He looked as excited as if he'd found treasure.
"Surround that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!"
The Dragon Clan Squad immediately surrounded the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
As time passed during the Spirit Ascension Platform's Riot Period, the Soul Masters' range of movement kept shrinking.
The Dragon Clan Squad was like a fishing net that caught everything, big fish or small.
Everyone's first Spirit Soul had reached the thousand-year level!
The uniform purple Soul Rings even made the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear uneasy.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Ji Fengyu beat his wings and rose into the sky, claiming the high ground as he looked down at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
He was terrifyingly fierce.
After breaking through to the third ring, he'd single-handedly cleared out almost the entire flock of flying Soul Beasts that had formed during the Riot Period.
That massive amount of spiritual power had directly upgraded Lan Xuanyu's first Spirit Soul to the thousand-year level.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had also witnessed Ji Fengyu's feat.
So it raised its left hand to shield the top of its head and the back of its neck, guarding against a dive attack from Ji Fengyu.
"Is it fighting us with one hand?"
"How cocky!"
Looking at the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, its left hand over its head and its right hand tense, Xie Xie couldn't resist teasing it.
"Xie Xie, it's scared out of its mind, and you're acting like it's asleep."
Tang Wulin rolled his eyes and teased Xie Xie too.
Why waste words on this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear?
"Golden Dragon Claw!!!"
Tang Wulin poured all his strength into activating his Golden Dragon Claw. His Soul Power Level was still low, and his Soul Power was limited.
He had to protect Brother Ji, and he couldn't hold back with his Golden Dragon Claw. This was his last shot.
So Tang Wulin was determined to take down the enemy in one strike.
A one-ring Soul Master killing a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear with one blow?
That was simply impossible.
Unless Ji Fengyu got injured, Tang Wulin might be able to pull it off.
But Ji Fengyu was safe and sound, so Tang Wulin had less to be angry about. This Golden Dragon Claw didn't have enough power,
and only sent the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear flying.
Boom!!!
One hand against one hand,
the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had to keep one in reserve to defend against Ji Fengyu. Facing Tang Wulin, a superhuman with boosts to strength, attack, and defense, it immediately fell behind.
"Elemental Storm!"
"Light Storm!"
"Shadow Stealth, Dark Dragon Claw!"
"White Dragon Throw!"
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was truly like a wall that had toppled over, with everyone rushing in to kick it while it was down after Tang Wulin knocked it flying.
A mere hundred-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear
was obviously no match for the Dragon Kings.
"Rouge, go!"
Seeing that the outcome was decided, Ji Fengyu switched Martial Souls and summoned the Rouge Dragon-Muscle Python to coil around the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
The Rouge Dragon-Muscle Python shared his first Soul Skill, Dragon-Snake Transformation,
as well as his newly acquired third Soul Skill, Snake-Python Heavenly Gale.
It finished off the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear by squeezing the breath out of it with Python Constriction.
Boom—
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear crashed to the ground, but no spiritual power appeared. Instead, it dropped a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Soul Bone.
"A Spirit Bone?"
The others wore different expressions.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Right Palm Bone was a precious item!
Tang Wulin's Golden Dragon Claw, Xie Xie's Light Dragon Claw, and Wang Jinxi's Dark Dragon Claw were all a perfect match for it.
"I think we should give it to Brother Ji to protect himself."
The usually taciturn Lan Xuanyu spoke up.
"I've got no objections to giving it to Brother Ji!"
Xie Xie immediately pledged his loyalty.
As for Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena, Na'er, and Wang Jinxi, there was no need to ask. Of course it would go to Brother Ji!
"How could I accept?"
After refusing three times, Ji Fengyu finally gave in to everyone's kindness and reluctantly absorbed the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Bone.
These loyal subjects were really making things hard for him!
"Di Tian, stop sleeping!"
"Your mistress just obtained a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear Soul Bone. Go pass the Dragon God Claw on to him."
