Within Mu Tianchen's Sea of Consciousness.

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff blissfully absorbed the endless stream of spiritual energy from the outside world. It had seen the battle outside as well, but it was not worried that it would affect it.

Mu Tianchen's Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul possessed an automatic protective effect.

Once he faced a fatal threat, the Holy Dragon of Light would automatically manifest its Dragon Soul True Form to block it.

The Dragon Soul True Form possessed three times Mu Tianchen's own strength. Only an opponent whose overall strength was more than three times Mu Tianchen's could harm the Dragon Soul True Form.

Otherwise, every attack was nothing more than a scratch to the Dragon Soul True Form.

But at that moment, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff directly said to Mu Tianchen, who was absorbing spiritual energy, "Kid, your two companions are about to be unable to hold on. Once they lose their ability to resist, your absorption will most likely be affected."

Hearing the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's words, Mu Tianchen, who had been sitting with his eyes closed in the Sea of Consciousness, immediately opened his eyes and looked in surprise at the teasing Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff.

"What happened? Who is about to be unable to hold on?"

Mu Tianchen abruptly looked outside. He had been focused on absorbing the spiritual energy of the Wind Baboon pack and had no idea what was happening outside.

Only after the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff woke him did he learn what had happened outside.

What was going on? He had only started absorbing spiritual energy a short while ago. Who were those two people fighting Lin Tiannan and Leng Qingshuang outside?

He looked at the youth fighting Lin Tiannan. The youth was powerfully built, with a huge scar across his face. He did not look like a twelve-year-old at all, but more like someone seventeen or eighteen.

Yet the aura around him was exceedingly powerful.

Wait, what was that?

Mu Tianchen's eyes immediately noticed the energy field enveloping Lin Tiannan and the scar-faced youth.

"That is a domain."

At that moment, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff stood beside Mu Tianchen and spoke calmly.

"That domain has a powerful attack amplification effect. With its enhancement, the scar-faced youth's attacks will become incomparably terrifying, far stronger than those of an ordinary Four-Ring Soul Ancestor."

"However, the truly terrifying one is not the scar-faced youth, but the white-clad youth with the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul."

"The Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul?"

Hearing that, Mu Tianchen immediately shifted his gaze to the white-clad youth. At that moment, the youth was engaged in a fierce battle with Leng Qingshuang.

The white-clad youth raised the Seven Kill Sword in his hand and slashed down.

Leng Qingshuang could not withstand that incomparably terrifying giant sword radiance at all. In a single strike, she was sent flying more than ten meters away, and her entire aura weakened considerably.

Power attack against control—under normal circumstances, control-system Soul Masters countered power-attack-system Soul Masters. Yet before that white-clad youth, Leng Qingshuang had fallen directly into a disadvantage, unable to fight back at all!

How was that possible?!

Mu Tianchen stared at the scene, instantly dumbfounded.

"Kid, do you want to go out and join in too?"

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff chuckled. As one of the most battle-loving races in the soul beast world, how could it possibly let such an opportunity pass? Although it had become a Soul Spirit, that did not mean it could not fight.

"Join in?"

"How?"

Mu Tianchen froze. He knew that he was currently absorbing spiritual energy. In the Riot Period Spirit Ascension Platform, absorbing spiritual energy took at least half an hour. How could he go out and fight?

"Hehe, that's easy!"

"Watch me!"

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff smiled at Mu Tianchen. Although it had turned into a Soul Spirit, some of its innate abilities remained. If it did not use them now, then when would it?

Within the Sea of Consciousness, it instantly unleashed its battle form.

Outside, Mu Tianchen was sitting cross-legged on the ground with his eyes tightly shut.

Suddenly, at that moment, a powerful energy vortex appeared around him. Along with it came the phantom of a gigantic beast more than ten meters tall.

The beast phantom looked like a fusion of a lion and a canine soul beast. It had a massive lion's head, its entire body covered in brilliant golden fur, with a long tail extending behind it.

Roar—

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff raised its body, more than ten meters tall, toward the sky and let out a howl. Its thunderous roar instantly battered everything around it.

That roar directly stunned all four people engaged in battle, and they all turned to look at the gigantic beast.

"This is—"

The four of them froze when they saw the gigantic beast.

Although they had all thoroughly read the Soul Beast Encyclopedia published by the Spirit Pagoda, they had truly never seen a soul beast like this one, which resembled both a male lion and a canine soul beast!

The moment the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff appeared, it intimidated the entire battlefield. Then, it opened its enormous mouth toward the nearby spiritual energy, and a terrifying suction force erupted.

The two hundred years of spiritual energy formed from the Thousand-Year Wind Baboon King were swallowed into the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's mouth in an instant. Light flickered over its body, and its aura surged wildly.

In less than a breath, the spiritual energy of the Thousand-Year Wind Baboon King had been absorbed and refined.

That speed was simply terrifying! Outrageously fast!

Yet that was not all. The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff fiercely inhaled the spiritual energy of the other hundred-year Wind Baboons. Under its incomparably terrifying suction, all of that spiritual energy was drawn into its stomach and became nourishment for its growth.

Naturally, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff did not absorb Qiangu Tinglan's share. It only took the portion that belonged to itself.

After absorbing the Soul Power of ten hundred-year Wind Baboons and one Thousand-Year Wind Baboon King, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's cultivation instantly increased by two hundred years, reaching the six-hundred-year level.

The golden fur on its body visibly became sleeker and brighter.

At the same time, Mu Tianchen felt his body and strength grow considerably stronger. His physical strength was likely approaching three thousand jin now.

That was a terrifying number.

Mu Tianchen stood there blankly.

Wait, the spiritual energy had been absorbed just like that?

Then what had all his hard work absorbing spiritual energy just now been for?

Seeing Mu Tianchen's expression, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff could not help but laugh inwardly. You never asked me. Since you planned to absorb and refine it yourself, then you could refine it yourself.

If Qin Jianxin had not appeared this time, it might not have revealed its abilities.

"Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, remember to tell me about any abilities you have in the future! We're on the same side!"

At that moment, the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff had transformed into a tiny dog only a dozen centimeters long and was lying on Mu Tianchen's shoulder. Mu Tianchen could not help patting it as he sighed.

"No problem. I can tell you right now: once my cultivation reaches the thousand-year level, my body can transform into a weapon for you to wield!"

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff said proudly.

"Wait, you can transform into a weapon too?"

Mu Tianchen was equally shocked. At that moment, he could not help thinking of Erlang Shen's weapon, the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Spear. It seemed that weapon had been transformed from a Three-Headed Flood Dragon.

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff crossed its front paws over its chest and said smugly, "I have many more abilities. You'll find out later."

Seeing that, Mu Tianchen felt deeply moved. It seemed he had truly obtained an extraordinary Soul Spirit.

Not only did the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff Soul Spirit come with the Domination Domain from birth, ignoring the suppressive pressure of all bloodlines and levels, it could also transform into a weapon. It was far too powerful!

Not far away, Qin Jianxin had stopped attacking Leng Qingshuang when the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff erupted.

He frowned at Mu Tianchen and asked, "Who is that kid?"

The Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff Soul Spirit that had soared into the sky just now shocked him. It was a powerful Soul Spirit he had never seen before, carrying an ancient aura from a remote age.

Could it be a Soul Spirit from ancient times?

Leng Qingshuang stopped where she was, gasping for air. Hearing Qin Jianxin's question, she immediately smiled and said, "Sky Phoenix Douluo's direct disciple, the possessor of the Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul, with Innate Level 20 Soul Power!"

"What? You said he has Innate Level 20 Soul Power?"

When Qin Jianxin heard that the youth was Sky Phoenix Douluo's direct disciple and possessed the Holy Dragon of Light Martial Soul, he did not think much of it. But when he heard that the youth possessed Innate Level 20 Soul Power, he froze completely.

His first thought was that it could not be true. How was that possible?

Other than Qian Renxue, the Angel God who had ascended to godhood twenty thousand years ago, could anyone else possess Innate Level 20 Soul Power?

Yet at that moment, the Seven Kill Sword in his hand seemed to sense Mu Tianchen's aura. His Seven Kill Sword actually began trembling with excitement!

It was an instinctive desire for battle, an extreme longing he had not felt from Leng Qingshuang, yet sensed from that kid!

Could that kid truly possess Innate Level 20 Soul Power?

At that moment, even Qin Jianxin himself was no longer certain.

"Believe it or not." Hearing Qin Jianxin's words, Leng Qingshuang felt secretly delighted. Everyone said he was the Spirit Pagoda's number one genius, but now that he had encountered Mu Tianchen, that little monster, there would be plenty of clashes ahead.

When she had first learned that Mu Tianchen possessed Innate Level 20 Soul Power, she had found it just as unbelievable as Qin Jianxin did. But after witnessing Mu Tianchen's later performances, she came to believe it.

There was always someone stronger, always a higher sky beyond the sky. No matter when, one had to maintain reverence for this world.
