Scarlet light flashed across heaven and earth, stunning everyone present. Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Snake Lance in particular nearly forgot how to breathe as they stared blankly at the terrifying hundred-thousand-year spirit ring revolving beneath Chu Bai's feet!

"A hundred-thousand-year spirit ring?! And this is Twin Martial Souls?!"

Snake Lance's voice turned incomparably shrill with shock.

The expressions on Gui Mei and Yue Guan's faces were equally spectacular.

They knew Chu Bai possessed a Second Martial Soul, but they had never known he possessed such a terrifying hundred-thousand-year spirit ring!

This was his first spirit ring, after all.

Just how terrifyingly powerful was this Second Martial Soul?

"What Martial Soul does the Holy Son possess? Even I feel overwhelming fear, as though my soul is trembling. I cannot look at it directly, nor can I even imagine it!"

Yue Guan said in horror.

Looking at the indistinct figure standing within the river of time behind Chu Bai, he felt his soul shudder, as if it would explode from merely taking another glance!

"A hundred-thousand-year spirit ring..." Shock flickered in Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes. Feeling that terrifying pressure flooding the heavens, she found that even her Six-Winged Angel spirit had dimmed at this moment!

Amid the resplendent light, a branch of grass radiating a soft, shimmering glow slowly emerged before Chu Bai!

It was a blade of grass, its leaves like swords, nine leaves growing together. Clearly just a blade of grass, yet it faintly sliced through the surrounding space. When its nine leaves emerged, heaven and earth overturned!

The blade of grass simply hovered there in quiet stillness.

"A blade of grass?"

Qian Renxue was puzzled. This was his hundred-thousand-year spirit ability?

His hundred-thousand-year spirit ability was merely a blade of grass?

"First Spirit Ability, Grass Character Sword Art!"

Chu Bai's gaze shot skyward. The blade of grass landed in his hand like a three-foot azure sword. With one slash, he unleashed towering sword light, while the blade of grass transformed into an endless stream of radiant afterimages, carrying boundless killing intent!

The surrounding forest was instantly flattened. Within the overwhelming sword light, the indistinct figure behind Chu Bai seemed to wield a sword as well. With a single sweep, its sword light seemed to cross the Sea of Time, tear through the sea of stars, and descend before Chu Bai!

"What a terrifying strike! How could such power possibly belong to a Soul Ancestor?!"

Snake Lance and the other two immediately flew into the air to guard against any accidents.

If Chu Bai could not fully control such a terrifying attack and something went wrong, the three of them would be guilty of a capital crime!

"Could a Soul Ancestor truly possess a strike so shocking that it shook heaven and earth?"

Qian Renxue did not dare hold back any longer. Sacred golden light burst forth, and a massive Six-Winged Angel Avatar appeared. Holding the Angel's Sword, she slashed out as well, meeting the grass sword energy unleashed by Chu Bai!

"Boom!"

Sword light filled the air. The Angel Avatar in the sky shuddered violently as golden cracks appeared across it. Within that radiance, Qian Renxue staggered back repeatedly before finally offsetting the impact!

Qian Renxue's full breasts rose and fell violently as she stared ahead in disbelief. Her Martial Soul Avatar had been shattered just like that. What exactly was that blade of grass, to possess such horrifying power?!

"Young Mistress, are you all right?"

Snake Lance instantly appeared beside Qian Renxue and transferred Soul Power into her body.

"I'm fine."

Qian Renxue shook her head, still somewhat dazed.

She had already attacked with all her strength, yet this was the result.

On the other side, Chu Bai, his face somewhat pale, slowly emerged from the smoke. Blood dripped from his palm. The Grass Character Sword Art was too terrifying; that sword light, which seemed capable of cutting through everything, had also sliced open Chu Bai's hand.

"I'm still too weak. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been injured by my own move."

Chu Bai gave a helpless, bitter smile.

"Holy Son, what exactly was that blade of grass just now? It directly shattered the Six-Winged Angel Avatar!"

Yue Guan could not help asking.

"That was my First Spirit Ability," Chu Bai explained.

"Hiss..."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei sucked in a cold breath. His First Spirit Ability was already this terrifying—once all nine spirit rings were attached, wouldn't that be insane?

"What kind of spirit ability was that? How could it shatter my Angel Avatar?" Qian Renxue walked over and asked.

"I just got lucky."

Chu Bai sighed. "But it's a pity. The consumption was too great. I barely have any combat strength left now."

"The Holy Son is only a Soul Ancestor, yet you already possess such terrifying combat power. Once you grow stronger, there will likely be few enemies on Douluo Continent who can match you!"

Snake Lance sighed.

Today's battle had truly broadened his horizons.

With the strength of a Soul Ancestor, Chu Bai had shattered the Martial Soul Avatar of a top-tier Martial Soul like the Six-Winged Angel spirit. Such an achievement could only be described as terrifying.

"The commotion here was too great. Fortunately, neither the Holy Son nor the Young Mistress was injured. We should leave as soon as possible."

Snake Lance reminded them.

"Mm, let's go."

The group then left the area.

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

"I never expected your strength to have become so powerful. How exactly did you do it?"

Qian Renxue still found it hard to believe. Could writing a diary really make someone stronger? If she started writing one every day now, was it still not too late?

Though she did not want to admit it, the Second Martial Soul Chu Bai had displayed earlier was likely even more terrifying than her Six-Winged Angel spirit. The sensation of her very soul trembling had left a deep impression on her.

"If I said I don't need to cultivate every day and can grow stronger just by moving my pen, would you believe me?"

Chu Bai teased.

"I would. Why wouldn't I? Sure enough, only literature can save the nation."

Qian Renxue sighed.

"Why does that sound like something I've heard somewhere before..."

Feeling his current combat strength, Chu Bai was in high spirits. He then left the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

"I never expected my First Spirit Ability to be the Grass Character Sword Art. I can't imagine what the later spirit abilities will be. Could my Seventh Spirit Ability be the descent of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor?"

As Chu Bai walked down the streets of Heaven Dou City, he suddenly thought of something and asked in confusion, "Didn't they say hundred-thousand-year spirit rings all have two spirit abilities? Why do I only have one Grass Character Sword Art?"

[The host's Second Martial Soul is rather special. Therefore, every spirit ring attached to it can only possess a single spirit ability.]

"..."

Chu Bai was not particularly dissatisfied.

Given the power of his Second Martial Soul, even if it could only have nine spirit abilities, it should still be enough to dominate this continent.

"I just hope it doesn't hit Qian Renxue too hard. After all, she suffered a loss at the hands of a mere Soul Ancestor like me. She'll probably be emo for days after going back, right?"

What Chu Bai did not know was that Qian Renxue had also taken out her diary at that moment. She wanted to see whether the world had gone mad or she had—writing a diary could make you stronger?!

Are you kidding me?!
