Third Soul Skill: All-Living Salvation!

"Are you all right?"

Zhang Lexuan looked at Qiangu Qitian, her jade-like hands continuously kneading his body, her beautiful face filled with worry.

"Don't worry, Sister Lexuan. I feel great right now!"

"Better than I've ever felt before!"

Qiangu Qitian was not lying just to reassure Zhang Lexuan. After absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, he could clearly feel that his body had undergone a transformation. Not only had he become stronger, but his entire body brimmed with power.

Even a casual punch produced bursts of booming air.

Even his Coiling Dragon Staff had grown heavier in its base weight. The Break Evil Dragon attached within the staff had also become increasingly powerful as he absorbed the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

"Qitian, please don't take such risks again in the future. I'm really worried."

Before Qiangu Qitian could finish speaking, Zhang Lexuan pulled him directly into her arms.

Her soft skin pressed against his face at once, and her familiar scent flooded his nostrils. That faint fragrance made Qiangu Qitian's throat bob as his gaze gradually turned hazy and gentle.

After three years together, Zhang Lexuan had completely let go of her former feelings for Beibei. Now, all her thoughts were focused on Qiangu Qitian.

When she heard that Qiangu Qitian intended to attempt absorbing a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring as his third ring, her only thought had been worry.

Zhang Lexuan truly did not want Qiangu Qitian to take risks, because she never wanted to lose anything again.

"Sister Lexuan..."

Qiangu Qitian was naturally not some unresponsive block of wood. At this moment, he also took the initiative to embrace Zhang Lexuan's soft body. Though the difference in their sizes made the scene somewhat strange, Mu En, standing not far away, smiled repeatedly and even nodded several times.

At last, he had not made the wrong choice this time. The two children were drawn to each other.

Qitian was a fortunate boy. Lexuan was gentle and kind; she was undoubtedly an excellent match.

"No, what exactly is going on here?!"

Although Beibei addressed Zhang Lexuan as his sister in name, he had always regarded the sister who had cared for him since childhood with feelings akin to those for a mother.

How had the sister who usually cared for him like a mother suddenly ended up embracing his good brother, while his Great-Grandfather wore such a delighted smile?

What on earth had he missed all these years?!

"Hmph. Shouldn't you explain yourselves?"

Seeing that the two had finally separated, Beibei immediately asked in irritation.

How could Sister Lexuan, whom he respected like a mother, possibly fall for Qiangu Qitian? Damn it, this was too infuriating!

"Explain? Heh, haven't you already seen it, brat?"

"That's right. Sister Lexuan and I are together now."

"Beibei, from now on, you can't call me by name anymore when we meet. You should respectfully address me as brother-in-law!"

Qiangu Qitian looked at Beibei and blinked mischievously, his utterly infuriating expression making Beibei furious.

Yet when he saw that Zhang Lexuan's face was only slightly flushed and that she made no move to stop Qiangu Qitian, he could only sigh helplessly.

"Qiangu Qitian, if you ever dare treat Sister Lexuan badly, then even if I can't beat you, I'll still fight you to the death!"

Beibei had lost both parents at a young age. Though he had Mu En as his Great-Grandfather,

Mu En was a Limit Douluo and the master of Sea God Pavilion. How could he possibly remain by Beibei's side at all times? It could be said that Zhang Lexuan had watched Beibei grow up from childhood.

To a certain extent, he even regarded this sister as his mother.

Beibei was not a selfish person. Of course he would not stop Sister Lexuan from finding her own happiness. Though Qiangu Qitian seemed somewhat unreliable in Beibei's eyes, he was still the good brother he had grown up with.

Moreover, Qiangu Qitian's talent truly was terrifying, so he could be considered qualified to be with Sister Lexuan.

But even though he acknowledged it in his heart, Beibei still issued a harsh warning.

"Beibei, with Lexuan's strength, who knows who will be bullying whom in the future!"

"So stop worrying about it."

"Qitian, tell us about your third Soul Skill. The Soul Skill bestowed by the Titan Giant Ape should be quite good, shouldn't it?"

Mu En shook his head kindly, then turned to Qiangu Qitian and asked seriously.

He was looking forward to it. A ten-thousand-year Titan Giant Ape would surely grant Qiangu Qitian an exceptionally powerful Soul Skill!

Zhang Lexuan also looked curiously at Qiangu Qitian, filled with anticipation.

Beibei quietly pricked up his ears as well, saying nothing further.

"My third Soul Skill isn't a buffing Soul Skill. Instead, it's a pure offensive Soul Skill!"

"It's called All-Living Salvation, a highly powerful Soul Skill that comes with a slowing attribute."

"Once I use this Soul Skill, everything within a hundred-meter radius of me will fall into a state of sluggishness. Ordinary Soul Masters will be like they've entered a swamp, unable to move at all. Unless they possess extremely powerful defenses capable of blocking it, no one will be able to withstand that strike."

If he stacked his first two buffing Soul Skills before using All-Living Salvation, his third Soul Skill, Qiangu Qitian was confident that he could easily defeat even four-ring or five-ring opponents.

"A Soul Skill with an innate slowing attribute? Did it inherit the Titan Giant Ape's hidden gravity-slowing attribute?"

As Mu En listened to Qiangu Qitian's words, his eyes flashed slightly.

The Titan Giant Ape was revered for its strength, yet it was born with mastery over the gravity-slowing attribute. Some fortunate Soul Masters who killed a Titan Giant Ape could potentially obtain Soul Skills carrying that gravity-slowing attribute.

He had not expected Qiangu Qitian to inherit this attribute so fortunately.

"Use your third Soul Skill on this old man with all your strength!"

Knowing the Soul Skill's attributes was ultimately no match for experiencing it himself. Mu En extended his somewhat withered palm toward Qiangu Qitian and waved, signaling for him to attack with everything he had.

Having already tested it several times, Qiangu Qitian naturally had no objections. After having Zhang Lexuan and Beibei move farther away, he summoned his Martial Soul once more.

As the Coiling Dragon Staff Martial Soul appeared in his hand, waves of dragon roars instantly echoed between heaven and earth.

Having absorbed three Soul Rings, the Coiling Dragon Staff not only looked tougher in texture, but its base weight had also increased tremendously.

Even when casually planted on the ground, it left behind a shallow pit.

"First Soul Skill: Force Piercing Ten Thousand Juns!"

"Second Soul Skill: Geng Metal Body Protection!"

As the two buffing Soul Skills activated, Qiangu Qitian's aura immediately began rising rapidly.

The instant Beibei, standing in the distance, sensed that aura, he felt the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul within him trembling frantically.

It gave him the feeling that he could not match it!

"The aura is growing stronger and stronger. A Coiling Dragon Staff with a Dragon Soul attached and one without a Dragon Soul attached truly are two entirely different Martial Souls!"

Feeling the aura rising from Qiangu Qitian, Mu En's expression changed slightly, and interest appeared on his face.

"Third Soul Skill: All-Living Salvation!"

Qiangu Qitian violently swung the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand, and it rapidly expanded in midair. The golden dragon patterns along its body began to move, as though they had transformed into true divine dragons at that very moment.

At the same time, as the Soul Skill activated, the air itself instantly seemed to solidify and turn muddy. Ordinary Soul Masters caught within it would find even moving extremely difficult!

This was his third Soul Skill, All-Living Salvation!
