The Soul King warily swept his gaze over the seven still-youthful figures before him.
The seven had uneven Soul Power Levels, yet their positioning was perfectly spaced, faintly forming an encirclement.
Such a strange composition stirred unease within him.
"Boss! They're from Spirit Hall! They saw everything that happened just now—we absolutely can't let them leave alive!"
The Golden Beast Soul Master whose tendons in both hands and feet had been severed by Luo Jiuyou, and who had been frightened out of his wits, now wore a face full of venomous resentment as he shouted himself hoarse.
He was certain of one thing:
Their boss was a Soul King. No matter how bizarre these little brats were, what could they possibly do?
Once his boss captured them all, he would definitely have the others torture that brat viciously. How dare he cut the tendons in his hands and feet? He deserved to die.
For a time, he continuously twisted in his mind, imagining all manner of miserable fates for Luo Jiuyou.
"Spirit Hall..."
Upon hearing this, the Soul King's expression changed drastically.
They had merely ambushed merchant caravans, massacred entire households, and trafficked people. How had they alarmed a colossus like Spirit Hall?
He focused his eyes again, carefully identifying the Martial Soul phantoms floating behind Qian Renxue and Ye Guyi.
Angel Martial Souls—pure golden six wings. They were absolutely genuine.
His face immediately turned paler, and cold sweat seeped down his back.
"Boss, kill them! They're just a bunch of brats who haven't even grown their—"
The Soul Master was still yelling when a foot carrying fierce force slammed heavily into his chest.
A crisp crack rang out as bones shattered.
Then silver light flashed, and half a bloody tongue flew out. His scream instantly turned shrill and garbled, echoing through the wind amid sprays of blood.
It was Luo Jiuyou.
After all, he had said earlier that if this guy kept babbling, he would cut out his tongue too.
The Soul King watched the scene unfold, his face twitching violently.
"Even if you come from Spirit Hall, cutting out my subordinate's tongue right in front of me is going too far!"
"Going too far?"
The force beneath Luo Jiuyou's foot did not lessen, grinding the man until his wails became even more miserable.
"When you massacred households and trafficked people, did you ever think of those words?"
"The soul master world is ruled by the strong. We were only running errands for others; we had no choice," the Soul King argued through gritted teeth.
"What a fine 'the strong devour the weak.'"
Luo Jiuyou sneered. "Then isn't Spirit Hall suppressing you today only natural?"
"That's right. By your logic, dealing with you is only right and proper."
Bibi Dong stepped forward, icy light flashing in her purple eyes as she stared directly at the Soul King. "You're surrounded. Surrender without resistance."
Qian Renxue gripped the Angel Holy Sword, its tip pointed directly at the Soul King. There was not the slightest trace of fear between her brows.
With her little junior brother here, she was as steady as a mountain.
That absurd build of his was enough that even a Soul Douluo could do nothing to him.
She still remembered that divine skill:
It marked a point in time. No matter how severe the injuries, once activated, it could restore him perfectly to that point. Its cooldown was only half an hour, and Soul Power could be infused to shorten the interval.
Even though her little junior brother's Soul Power was still limited, he could use it again within a dozen minutes.
With such a method, even a Titled Douluo would not be able to capture him quickly.
"Don't force me."
The Soul King's voice was low, killing intent gradually thickening in his eyes. Soul Power began surging around him as five soul rings slowly rose from beneath his feet.
He truly did not want to clash with people from Spirit Hall.
Otherwise, Spirit Hall would hunt him across the entire continent.
"Force you? So what if we do?"
Before Bibi Dong had even finished speaking, she shot forward like an arrow released from its bow.
No, Senior Sister, are you really that bold?
Seeing this, Qian Renxue immediately charged forward alongside Ye Guyi.
The second purple soul ring around Bibi Dong suddenly lit up.
Second Soul Skill, Spider Venom Blood.
Dark purple light erupted from within her body, and the killing intent of the Death Spider Emperor instantly ignited every inch of her bloodline.
All attributes increased by 80%, while her strongest poison-type attacks received another 80% increase.
Her External Soul Bone added another 50%, raising the total enhancement to 130%.
She felt Soul Power surge like molten lava. Her speed and strength skyrocketed, while the sound of the Eight Spider Lances tearing through the air was sharp enough to pierce the ears.
The Soul King's pupils contracted violently. He dodged to the side in a bedraggled scramble, barely avoiding the direct thrust, but the edge of a spider lance still tore a bloody gash across his shoulder.
He lowered his head to glance at the wound, then looked at Bibi Dong, whose eight spider legs trembled slightly before him. His expression darkened as though water could drip from it.
"Level twenty-six... How could you possibly have such speed?"
But the next instant, he discovered that his shoulder was beginning to go numb and stiff. He stared incredulously at the Eight Spider Lances.
"Damn it, they're poisonous too?!"
Bibi Dong's expression remained indifferent. "Isn't it only natural for a spider to use poison?"
The Soul King was enraged, but he was given no chance to catch his breath.
Golden light exploded above his head as Qian Renxue swooped down.
She had activated it in advance.
Third Soul Skill, Angel Coronation!
Holy light erupted from her body as the potential of her Six-Winged Angel bloodline was fully unleashed. All attributes increased by 100%, while her holy light attribute was enhanced by 100%.
Her entire body became a dazzling mass of golden radiance as the holy sword descended upon him, carrying majestic heavenly might.
The Soul King hastily summoned his Martial Soul, raising a pitch-black battle axe horizontally above his head.
Boom!
The deafening impact sent him staggering back several steps, the rocks beneath his feet cracking inch by inch.
He gritted his teeth and looked up, only to see Qian Renxue hovering in midair, her six wings spread wide like a deity descending into the world.
"A level thirty-four Soul Elder—how could she possess such power?!"
Qian Renxue's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was already extraordinary, allowing her to fight above her level by nature. With another 100% enhancement to all attributes and holy light attributes, she was naturally unstoppable.
After witnessing Luo Jiuyou's overwhelming number of enhancement-type soul skills, the three girls had finally realized something:
Rather than piling up flashy attacks, it was better to stack enhancements to the limit.
After all, as their little junior brother had said before,
Soul ring skills from the early stages were rarely used later on.
So they would simply take the path of ultimate offense.
Enhance, enhance, and enhance again.
The huge pile of enhancement skills on their little junior brother had filled them with envy.
Thus, all the soul rings Qian Daoliu selected for them leaned toward attribute boosts.
Bibi Dong and Ye Guyi's second soul rings both provided an 80% enhancement to all attributes, while their respective strengths—Bibi Dong's poison and Ye Guyi's holy light—received an additional 80% boost, multiplying their destructive power.
Qian Renxue's enhancement attributes were even stronger than theirs, reaching 100%.
"Boss, attack together! We can't drag this out any longer!"
The two Soul Ancestors behind him were equally terrified. At this point, how could they still care about bullying the weak with superior numbers?
Their actions had been exposed, and they had now gone up against Spirit Hall. If they did not flee this place quickly, death was the only road left to them.
"Attack!"
The Soul King roared through gritted teeth and charged forward with his axe, disregarding the poison still eating away at his left arm.
Unfortunately, Bibi Dong's External Soul Bone only possessed spider venom. Having not undergone the Icefire Body Tempering, it could not carry the dual poisons of ice and fire. Against a level fifty-four Soul King, the venom was still insufficient to kill him immediately.
Luo Jiuyou stood at the rear, watching his three senior sisters fight fiercely, and shook his head slightly.
They still seemed a little too aggressive.
Let me help you.
Suddenly, a scarlet domain spread beneath his feet like a tide of blood, instantly blanketing the entire battlefield.
Asura Killing Intent Domain.
All enemy attributes were reduced by 20%, and they suffered blood-fiend corrosion that ignored defense every second.
All allied attributes rose by 50%, and their attacks gained 30% armor penetration.
In an instant, the auras around Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Ye Guyi rose again. Their blood and vitality surged like tides, brilliant light burning in their eyes as battle intent soared into the heavens.
So this was Little Junior Brother's domain.
How overbearing!
Meanwhile, the Soul King and the two Soul Ancestors opposite them felt an icy killing intent crash toward them like something tangible. Their Soul Power seemed pinned down by an invisible giant hand, their strength dropping by 20%. Fine blood streaks even began appearing across their skin, as though invisible blades were slowly slicing them apart.
The Soul King's face was filled with horror. "What exactly is this?!"
