"Your Holiness, I am utterly loyal to His Holiness the Pope and have no second thoughts. Please stop testing me." Hearing the Rakshasa God's question, "Qin Heng" put on the air of an iron-blooded supporter of Bibi Dong's faction.
"You think I am testing you?"
"Is... isn't that the case?"
"Heh~" The Rakshasa God sneered. "Kid, I have no interest in testing you. I am serious. The armor on you is quite interesting. The Judgment Power upon it reminds me of an old adversary. Compared to your armor, even Bibi Dong's Twin Martial Souls are not worth mentioning."
"Your... Your Holiness, I..."
"Kid, it seems you do not think much of my Divine Position!"
"Your Holiness, I do not mean that. I just..."
The Rakshasa God's divine sense gave "Qin Heng" no chance to argue. She transformed into a wisp of divine power entwined with endless resentment and directly invaded the Asura Armor, intending to forcibly leave her mark upon "Qin Heng's" martial soul.
Clearly, the Rakshasa God did not care whether "Qin Heng" was willing. She only wanted him to obediently accept her inheritance.
As the Rakshasa God's divine power invaded, a powerful evil aura flowed over the silver-white Asura Armor. Caught off guard, the clone exploded on the spot.
At the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, Qin Heng's true body suddenly opened his eyes. The Asura Armor immediately fused with him, and the evil aura carrying endless resentment instantly startled Golden Crocodile Douluo awake.
After sensing the aura on Qin Heng, Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression changed drastically. He was all too familiar with it. It was clearly identical to the aura of the evil god behind Bibi Dong.
Could Bibi Dong have made a move against Xiao Heng? Golden Crocodile Douluo thought. He immediately rushed toward Qin Heng as the Golden Crocodile Dragon King martial soul appeared behind him, intending to suppress the Rakshasa God's divine power with his own Soul Power.
But before Golden Crocodile Douluo's Soul Power could touch Qin Heng, the purple cloak behind Qin Heng suddenly turned pitch-black.
The next instant, Qin Heng erupted with an aura that made even Golden Crocodile Douluo, a rank 99 Limit Douluo, want to bow in worship. This aura was even above that of the Angel God.
At the same time, a Lengthened Saber appeared in Qin Heng's hand, though it looked like a halberd.
In the God Realm, the Rakshasa God suddenly opened her eyes, a flicker of surprise passing through them.
"My divine power was completely suppressed? A mere mortal can actually do such a thing?" the Rakshasa God murmured softly.
The Rakshasa God wanted to probe Qin Heng further, but she could no longer sense his aura.
The reason she had been able to send a wisp of divine power into Qin Heng's illusion just now was, ultimately, because Qin Heng often stayed by Bibi Dong's side and had already become tainted with a trace of her aura.
And when the Rakshasa God's divine power attempted to corrupt the Asura Armor, it was a provocation to the Asura Armor, whose rank stood far above the Rakshasa God's.
Moreover, the Rakshasa God's divine power was inherently incomparably evil. The Asura Armor used her divine power to temporarily unlock all of its abilities. Not only did it easily suppress the Rakshasa God's power, it also transferred the remaining divine power into the cloak.
However, with Qin Heng's current strength, he was clearly unable to control the Rakshasa God's divine power. Therefore, he needed to expend this portion of divine power as quickly as possible.
After receiving feedback from the Asura Armor, Qin Heng said to Golden Crocodile Douluo, "Grandpa Golden Crocodile, what was on me just now was the Rakshasa God's divine power. I encountered the Rakshasa God. Right now, her divine power has been suppressed by my armor, but my level is too low to erase it. I need to use a special method to expend this divine power. I will be fine, so do not worry, Grandpa Golden Crocodile."
After saying that, Qin Heng raised his hand and waved. The large halberd sliced through the void, and a pitch-black Space Rift appeared. Qin Heng did not even have time to get dressed. He only managed to grab his storage Soul Tool before leaping into the Space Rift.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes nearly split apart at the sight. Instinctively, he tried to rush into the Space Rift after Qin Heng, but the Spatial Gale released by the rift alone carved bloody gashes into his body, which had been tempered to its limit.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's instincts told him that if he stubbornly forced his way into the Space Rift, he would be shredded apart.
Left with no other choice, Golden Crocodile Douluo could only give up. The Space Rift closed after remaining open for roughly five seconds.
He sighed and sat cross-legged beside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, waiting for Qin Heng to return.
About ten minutes later, the Space Rift opened again, and Qin Heng crawled out from within.
Golden Crocodile Douluo was just about to ask what had happened when he discovered that Qin Heng's bone age had clearly changed. He had originally been eight years old, but was now nine. His height and Soul Power had both increased significantly. Qin Heng, who had originally been rank 49, was now astonishingly rank 55.
"Xiao Heng, you..."
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, there are some things involving deities that I cannot say too much about. You can understand it as me having cultivated for an entire year in another world."
"Was your Fifth Soul Ring obtained in that place as well?"
Qin Heng nodded.
"Then what soul beast did your Fifth Soul Ring come from? How old was it, and what is the soul skill?"
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, my Fifth Soul Ring came from a Titan Giant Ape more than 58,000 years old. The soul skill is related to gravity and is called Gravity Control.
"This soul skill can be used on myself or on others. When used on myself, I can freely adjust the gravity added to my attacks, up to a maximum of a hundredfold.
"If I throw a punch with Hundredfold Gravity, it is equivalent to increasing the force my fist can unleash by a hundred times. If a Titled Douluo is careless, the power of that punch could seriously injure them.
"Of course, using Hundredfold Gravity is too much of a burden for my current Soul Power Level. One punch would drain all my Soul Power.
"Besides increasing my attack power with gravity, if I reduce my own gravity..."
As he spoke, Qin Heng actually began floating into the air.
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes widened. Aside from certain martial souls that came with flight abilities, flying was an ability that could only be unlocked upon reaching the Titled Douluo level. Yet Qin Heng, a mere Soul King, could actually fly now?
"Xiao Heng, this soul skill of yours is quite good already."
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile, I have not even explained what happens when I use this soul skill on others!"
"There is no need. At most, it uses gravity to suppress enemies. There are plenty of such soul skills on Douluo Continent."
Qin Heng smiled at that and said nothing more. The effect of his soul skill on others was indeed more or less what Golden Crocodile Douluo had said.
Zhao Wuji of Shrek Academy had a third soul skill called Gravity Enhancement and a fifth soul skill called Gravity Squeeze. Their effects were not much different from Qin Heng's soul skill.
The difference was that Qin Heng's fifth soul skill possessed an additional trait: when using it, he could freely integrate Soul Power of other attributes into it, dealing damage to enemies. Suppression and damage could both be handled by a single soul skill.
