"Congratulations, host! You have obtained your second martial soul, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!"

Chu Sheng: "..."

He did not even think much of divine-grade martial souls. A mere Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon?

"Load!"

Both rewards had involved martial souls. This prize pool had to be for his second martial soul!

His first martial soul was mythical-grade. His second certainly could not be too inferior.

He, Chu Sheng, had all the time and energy he needed!

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained your second martial soul, Blue Silver Grass!"

The system: "..."

It had followed the procedure and offered its congratulations too soon.

Did its host really need congratulating for a martial soul like Blue Silver Grass?

Before the system could think any further, it heard one word.

"Load!"

"???"

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained your second martial soul, Blue Silver Emperor!"

What had happened earlier-wait, had anything happened earlier?

As expected of its host. The Blue Silver Emperor martial soul was pretty decent!

"Load!"

The system: "..."

Cheats!!

It knew now, and then it knew nothing again!!

"Congratulations, host..."

"Load!"

"Cheats! There are cheats!!"

"Congratulations, host..."

Who knew how long had passed? In any case, time had not moved.

"Congratulations, host! You have obtained your second martial soul, Ancestral Wizard Dijiang!"

"Mythical-grade! Host, this is the mythical martial soul Dijiang!!"

"Though it's only a martial soul, with less than a hundred-millionth of the true body's power, it's enough for you to swagger unchecked across the romance... ahem, Douluo Continent!"

The system cried out in astonishment.

It had never imagined its host would hit the jackpot on his very first draw and obtain a mythical martial soul.

And Dijiang, one of the very best, at that!

Even mythical martial souls differed in strength, and Dijiang belonged to the very highest tier.

Suddenly, something seemed to occur to the system, leaving it thoughtful.

"Could my host truly have fortune that rivals the heavens?"

"His first martial soul was mythical-grade too, obtained on the very first draw."

"His starting soul power hit the prize pool's ceiling: level sixty."

"His starting soul rings hit the prize pool's ceiling: a full set of hundred thousand year soul rings."

"And now his second martial soul has done the same..."

The system was puzzled, yet impressed despite not understanding!

Following a host whose fortune rivaled the heavens meant it had struck lucky too!

After Chu Sheng obtained his second martial soul, his reward of a full set of hundred thousand year soul rings took effect automatically.

This reward remained in effect no matter how many martial souls he obtained.

Whenever he broke through, a new hundred thousand year soul ring would automatically be added.

Breaking the soul rings' upper limit was simple too: draw prizes!

What Chu Sheng found rather regrettable was that, although he really did receive hundred thousand year soul rings, each new soul ring only increased his soul power level by one.

That was why he had previously only been level sixty-six.

An innate level of sixty, plus six soul rings, made exactly sixty-six.

Now, with eight soul rings fused, Chu Sheng's soul power level had soared to seventy-four.

Four soul rings had brought him to Soul Saint, and the remaining four had brought him to level seventy-four!

"Truly a case of a greedy snake trying to swallow an elephant..."

"If I get two more martial souls, I can become a god through this bug!"

After a moment of silence, Chu Sheng still could not suppress the upward curl of his lips.

In less than a month since transmigrating to the Douluo Continent, he had leaped from an ordinary person to a Soul Saint.

And a very special Soul Saint at that!

"Ancestral Wizard-Dijiang."

The Ancestral Wizard of Space, chief of the Ancestral Wizards.

He commanded spatial law, and his physical might was terrifying beyond measure!

"No, I have to try this!"

It would have been a lie to say he was not excited. This round of rewards left Chu Sheng unable to calm down.

He had merely obtained the martial soul and had not even entered a possession state, yet he felt that his body was more than several thousand times stronger than before!

Not only that, Chu Sheng even felt he could shatter space and wield spatial power at will...

This was the innate talent his martial soul had given him!

As the system had said, even a hundred-millionth of its original owner's power would let him swagger unchecked across the Douluo Continent!

Chu Sheng vanished and appeared in the small world-the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Without the slightest hesitation, he punched the mountain surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

With a bang, the mountain burst apart, pulverized to dust that was swallowed by the surrounding void.

Chu Sheng: "..."

"Holy shit!!"

"Load!!"

Chu Sheng looked down at his fist and swallowed, scarcely able to believe it.

He felt that one punch could kill a god of Douluo!

There was no doubt about his body's strength. It was time to try his spatial talent.

Who knew how long passed? Perhaps a month, perhaps half a year. Chu Sheng kept practicing within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Saving and loading scarcely ever stopped.

He had underestimated Dijiang, even as a mere martial soul!

Soul skills?

What did he need soul skills for?

Was this not something he was born with, something he could shape however he liked?

Every application of space Chu Sheng could imagine was possible through the talent Dijiang had given him.

The only drawback was that he did not have enough soul power...

As for his physique, Chu Sheng could only keep training, striving to act like a "normal person."

Otherwise, what would Qian Renxue do?

With Dijiang's martial soul integrated into him, Chu Sheng's physique had already broken beyond the bounds of mortals.

Even he had no idea how strong he truly was.

"Ah... being invincible is so lonely!"

After countless saves and loads, Chu Sheng had almost forgotten the very concept of time.

At last, he could act like a "normal person" too.

"It's time to leave."

The next moment, Chu Sheng found the save from when he had fused with Dijiang, then confirmed his selection.

Returning to the past would not erase his experience or memories. It was both a curse and a blessing!

"Host, you drew a mythical martial soul on your first try, and Ancestral Wizard Dijiang at that! Aren't you thrilled? Aren't you excited?"

Faced with the system's "interrogation," the corner of Chu Sheng's eye twitched. He had no answer.

Only the heavens knew how long he had been excited...

"Yes, I'm excited."

The system: "..."

As expected of its host. Even after drawing such an existence, he could remain neither arrogant nor impatient and treat it with an ordinary, level heart.

Chu Sheng: "..."

Ignoring the "idiotic" system, Chu Sheng casually waved his hand, channeling spatial power. A spatial gateway appeared before him.

"Host, you're a heaven-sent genius! You've only just gained your spatial talent, yet you're already so proficient, as though you've practiced it hundreds or thousands of times!"

Stop praising me. My face is swelling from the slaps. I really did practice more than hundreds or thousands of times!

Chu Sheng stepped through and vanished from the spot.

The next moment, Chu Sheng appeared in the outskirts several hundred li away.

Several hundred li was the limit of his soul power, not the limit of his talent!

After resting briefly, Chu Sheng resumed his journey toward his destination.

Heaven Dou City, the Crown Prince's Residence.

"Young mistress, your husband..."

She Long's mouth hung slightly open, but the words stuck like a fishbone in his throat!

He truly did not know how to explain...

"What happened?"

Qian Renxue frowned and asked in confusion.

Had something happened to Chu Sheng right after he left the Crown Prince's Residence?

"After your husband left the city... he... he casually swept his hand, and a spatial gateway appeared..."

"Then he vanished."

Even for a Titled Douluo, such a thing sounded like a tale from the Arabian Nights!

And Chu Sheng was only a Soul Emperor...

She Long, who had been secretly protecting Chu Sheng, had no idea that the latter was already a different man from before, having broken through to the Soul Saint realm.

Upon hearing this,

Qian Renxue froze, then shook her head.

"It's a good thing that he has such abilities. Uncle She Long, you don't need to protect him anymore."

"Also, I'll tell Grandfather about him myself."

"I don't want that woman to know about this!"
