[Ding, host detected in the Awakening Hall. Would you like to sign in?]
The system's voice sounded, and Qian Xunzong chanted inwardly, Sign in.
[Ding, successful sign-in. Reward: one super-evolution of the martial soul!]
[First sign-in detected. Additional reward: second martial soul.]
Well now, the system's quite a go-getter. Not bad, not bad, this youth is worth molding.
[Thank you for the praise, Host~]
As the words fell, the awakening array suddenly erupted with a fierce surge of golden energy that shot straight into the sky. Then, a phantom of a Six-Winged Angel slowly materialized behind Qian Xunzong:
Three pairs of pristine white wings unfurled one after another, every single feather shimmering with a pale-golden holy luster. The angel's face was wreathed in a soft halo, exuding an aura of majesty, sanctity, and inviolability.
Seeing this from the high seat, Qian Daoliu nodded in satisfaction. "The Six-Winged Angel. Good, very good."
Golden Crocodile at the side was likewise immensely pleased. As the inherited martial soul of the Qian Family, the Six-Winged Angel was naturally formidable. One could call it the number one martial soul on the continent, sharing the title of divine-level martial soul alongside Sea God Island's Sea God Martial Soul. Every single wielder of it had been an unrivaled powerhouse across the continent. Present-day Qian Xunji, the Pope, and the Chief Elder all possessed the Six-Winged Angel martial soul.
Everyone present was startled for a moment, and then they watched as the Six-Winged Angel behind Qian Xunzong completely shattered, turning into specks of starlight.
"Zong'er!"
This scene happened far too fast; everyone simply had no time to react. The figures of Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile instantly appeared before Qian Xunzong, just about to reach him,
when suddenly, Qian Xunzong's eyes flashed with a golden light. Following that, a fierce pillar of golden light, far surpassing the previous one, shot straight into the heavens, actually forcing the two of them back a step. Azure Luan was also driven back several steps.
Yet at this moment, they had no leisure to mind such things, fixing their eyes instead upon the scene unfolding before them.
Golden dust drifted across the palace dome like a shower of stars. An aura far more holy and majestic than the previous Six-Winged Angel emerged, instantly sweeping across the entire grand hall—no, not just the hall, but the entire Spirit City.
They saw that golden pillar of light charge straight into the clouds, forming a tremendously massive golden vortex. Then, countless surrounding luminous energies converged, shaping a holy figure in the air.
Brilliant holy light surrounded his form, making him like a moving sun that radiated an unfaceable majesty. He wore sacred armor trimmed with gilt edges, the armor engraved with intricate judgment divine patterns, every single line flowing with the power to purify all things.
The dazzling golden wings unfurled behind him were distinct down to the very feather, their edges gleaming with flowing light. When they flapped, they whipped up sacred gales that caused darkness to retreat wherever they passed. Set in the center of the crown upon his head was a gem that continuously emitted the pressure of judgment. He held a Judgment Sword in his hand, its blade reflecting the world's good and evil. With just a gentle wave, it could tear apart the chaos, manifesting an matchless, grand momentum.
"This..." Qian Daoliu watched the figure in the air, his eyes filled with astonishment.
At that moment, a beam of light burst from the Angel God Statue within the towering Worship Hall on the back mountain of Spirit Hall. Immediately after, several figures flew out from the hall, arriving above the Awakening Hall to gaze at this shocking sight.
At the head was a man with long golden hair, his appearance seven or eight parts similar to Qian Daoliu's. Holy, luminous energy radiated from his entire body. As he looked at the figure in the air, he murmured:
"The aura of this figure caused my Six-Winged Angel to feel an intent of submission, and it even made the Angel God Statue resonate!"
"Father!" Seeing the newcomer, Qian Daoliu hurriedly bowed in salute.
"We pay our respects to the Chief Elder!" The rest of the crowd also knelt and saluted one after another.
Indeed, the newcomer was none other than the current Chief Elder of Spirit Hall and the strongest dual-flower red-pole of Spirit Hall—Qian Xichen.
"Is this Zong'er awakening his martial soul?" Qian Xichen saw Qian Xunzong at the center of the light pillar and asked.
"Yes, Father. Zong'er is..."
Just as Qian Daoliu was about to say more, the strange phenomenon in the skies above Spirit City abruptly changed once again.
They saw a massive fissure tear open in the high clouds. From within that fissure, a throne forged of platinum and diamonds slowly emerged. Every armrest of the throne was carved with complex divine patterns, and atop the backrest at the summit, a divine seal emitting boundless light slowly revolved. That boundless, vast aura made everyone present unable to help themselves from prostrating in worship.
"Could this be... Twin martial souls?!"
Golden light formed a series of steps above the throne. Qian Xunzong's body floated upward, merging with the figure in the air, and then he stepped onto the stairs. With every step he took, a divine pattern beneath his feet lit up, and the entire throne emitted a low hum in response. When he reached the summit of the throne, the backrest slowly unfolded, revealing the precious seat at the center.
Qian Xunzong slowly seated himself, the golden wings suspended behind him gently blanketing the sides of the throne. The mark at the peak of the Eternal and Creation God-Seal Throne suddenly erupted with boundless light, enveloping the entire Spirit City. Amidst the radiance, countless divine patterns spread out from the throne, connecting with the light around Qian Xunzong's body to form a sacred and majestic tableau.
Right then within Spirit City, commoners and soul masters alike involuntarily fell to their knees in worship. Even the few peak Douluo of Spirit Hall, and even Qian Xichen as a peerless Douluo, could not help harboring such an urge.
"Just what kind of powerful martial soul did Zong'er awaken..."
This strange phenomenon lasted for about ten breaths before gradually dissipating. Qian Xunzong's figure also slowly descended, and the two martial souls returned to his body.
At this moment, Qian Xunzong opened the system panel to inspect it:
Host: Qian Xunzong Identity: Fourteenth-generation descendant of Spirit Hall's Qian Family. Age: Six years old Martial Souls: Judgment Deity (Super God-tier), Eternal and Creation God-Seal Throne (Super God-tier). Rank: Level Thirty. Soul Rings: None Soul Bones: None System Space: None
Holy cow, it's actually the Eternal and Creation God-Seal Throne!
As a veteran bookworm, Qian Xunzong had naturally read the book God-Seal Throne. The six great thrones within it were all incomparably powerful, and the Eternal and Creation God-Seal Throne among them was even a super divine artifact—the seat of the Creation God itself, its might self-evident.
Not bad at all, System. You even managed to pull out the Eternal and Creation God-Seal Throne. Impressive, I give you a thumbs-up!
[Many thanks for the praise, Host~]
As for the other martial soul, it was the Judgment Deity—a martial soul formed from the super-evolution of the Six-Winged Angel, and it was likewise a super god-tier martial soul.
The Judgment Deity possessed three supreme attributes of sacredness, light, and divine flame, alongside the purifying power to immunize against all evils and the judgment power to sentence sins. One could say it was the bane of all evil spirits, and an ultra-evolved version of the Six-Winged Angel.
At the same time, it had bestowed upon Qian Xunzong an innate soul power of rank thirty; he only needed to absorb three soul rings to reach the Soul Elder realm.
