Ultimate Strength, Domination Domain!

With the death of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, a deep-black Soul Ring immediately condensed.

It was clearly only a thirty-thousand-year Soul Ring, yet the Soul Power fluctuations radiating from it were incomparably formidable.

Qiangu Qitian took a deep breath. Sensing the constant trembling and yearning of his Martial Soul within his body, he no longer hesitated. He quickly stepped into the center of the condensed Soul Ring and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Qiangu Qitian immediately began absorbing the Soul Ring. As he did, a continuous stream of Soul Power from within the ring surged into his body.

The immense Soul Power flowed like a rushing river, relentlessly battering Qiangu Qitian's meridians.

Fortunately, under the impact of such immense Soul Power, Qiangu Qitian's body had already undergone a transformation after being cleansed by the Gold of Life. Otherwise, absorbing it would truly have been rather troublesome for him in the past.

But now, although this Soul Power was immense, it was not much of a problem for Qiangu Qitian.

As he continuously refined the Soul Power, a wisp of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's remnant soul suddenly appeared within his Sea of Consciousness.

Above ten thousand years, absorbing a Soul Ring would bring mental shock.

Qiangu Qitian knew he could not possibly be a match for the thirty-thousand-year Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff, but could he not even handle a tiny wisp of remnant soul?

He immediately raised the Coiling Dragon Staff in his hand and charged forward, directly engaging the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's remnant soul in battle.

Outside, Mu En watched Qiangu Qitian continuously absorb the Soul Ring's energy, anticipation showing in his eyes.

Ultimate Strength. If his disciple could truly undergo such a transformation, Shrek would gain a truly invincible powerhouse in the future.

Although Mu En considered himself the strongest among the three Limits, he also understood that he had not truly pulled far ahead of his other two old friends.

But if his disciple could truly develop Ultimate Strength, then even if someone else reached the level of a Limit Douluo in the future—

Before Ultimate Strength, they would still be utterly vulnerable.

One force broke through ten thousand techniques. That was the foundation of everything. Before Ultimate Strength, other ultimate attributes would ultimately never amount to much.

Ultimate Fire, Ultimate Ice—before Ultimate Strength, they were merely second-rate goods that could be casually knocked to the ground.

Even the Ultimate Light he had pursued his entire life could not compare to Ultimate Strength.

"Hmm, another Soul Bone?"

"Hiss... an External Soul Bone at that!"

Mu En's expression suddenly tightened, and astonishment appeared on his face. Qiangu Qitian's left palm had suddenly changed.

It had grown broader, and five sharp blades slowly emerged from his palm.

With the appearance of the External Soul Bone, an invisible wave unexpectedly spread out from Qiangu Qitian's body.

"This is a domain!"

"The domain innate to that Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff!"

Mu En's expression changed drastically, disbelief filling his face.

Mu En had personally fought the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff and experienced its innate domain firsthand. He had never imagined that his disciple would obtain an External Soul Bone carrying a domain.

"Elder Mu, this is...!"

With the emergence of the domain, all the soul beasts throughout the Beast Fighting Zone immediately fell into an uproar. Elder Gong had only just managed to calm them down.

When he returned, he could not help but stare wide-eyed at Mu En and ask.

A domain!

This was a special ability that even many Title Douluo did not possess, yet it had appeared on a mere thirteen-year-old boy.

It was truly too enviable.

"Little Gong, do not reveal this matter to anyone."

Mu En did not answer. Instead, he looked at Elder Gong standing beside him and spoke gravely.

Mu En had never been a softhearted man. Had Elder Gong not remained at Shrek for several decades, Mu En could have turned hostile without hesitation.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Qiangu Qitian finally shattered the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff's remnant soul with great effort.

As the mental shock ended, he also refined the vast amount of Soul Power in his body to its final stage.

With the breakthrough past the final barrier leading to the Spirit King realm, his Soul Power began rising rapidly.

It was clearly only a thirty-thousand-year Soul Ring, yet it raised Qiangu Qitian's Soul Power by a full three levels!

Soul Power was only secondary. Qiangu Qitian opened his eyes and looked at the bone in his left hand, unable to stop a smile from appearing.

Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff Left Palm Bone!

Within it lay an even more special ability: the domain innately wielded by the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff!

Domination Domain!

This was an extraordinarily overpowered domain. It could increase all of his attributes by fifty percent and place him in an excited state. In this state, he would ignore pain and be immune to bloodline suppression.

With this domain, no matter how powerful a Martial Soul was, it would be unable to exert any suppression over him.

Beyond the domain, Qiangu Qitian could now confirm that his attributes had completely undergone a transformation.

At this moment, he had truly mastered Ultimate Strength!

"Elder Gong, would you be willing to spar with me?"

Qiangu Qitian turned to Elder Gong in the distance and said with a smile.

Although his strength had greatly increased, he was still far, far inferior to Mu En.

But against Elder Gong, while the gap remained great, it was now a gap he could see.

Qiangu Qitian was confident that within five years at most, he would raise his strength to equal, or even surpass, Elder Gong's!

"Fight this old man? Fine! Let this old fellow see just how powerful you've become after absorbing the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff!"

"Come!"

Elder Gong threw back his head and laughed. He did not find Qiangu Qitian's words offensive; instead, he eagerly rubbed his hands together. As his voice fell, vast amounts of blazing fire erupted from his body.

Elder Gong's Martial Soul was the fire-attributed Blazing Lion. Though its attribute had not reached Ultimate Fire, the temperature of its flames was still quite extraordinary. The moment it appeared, the temperature nearby began to rise sharply.

"Little Gong is getting serious. In that case, this old man will serve as your referee."

Mu En chuckled and immediately sent out a stream of Soul Power, completely sealing off the surrounding space.

A Limit Douluo already possessed the preliminary ability to manipulate space.

Sealing the nearby space and preventing the aura of battle from leaking out was no difficult task for Mu En, who had now recovered to his peak.

"Then let's begin!"

Qiangu Qitian grinned broadly. Facing a level ninety-two Title Douluo, he showed no hint of retreat. Instead, he charged forward to attack.

The Coiling Dragon Staff whirled in his hand, and in an instant, the eight strikes of the Indomitable Staff Technique had already lashed out.

Each strike stacked atop the last, sometimes light and sometimes heavy. His attacks were exceedingly elusive and unpredictable, making them difficult to read.
