Soul skill: Dragon King Overlord Body [Recommendation votes and continued reading, dear readers
The four walked out of the cave. At that moment, the Mighty Vajra Bear was still prostrate on the ground, while the Tyrannosaurus struggled furiously under the soul skill.
When the Mighty Vajra Bear saw Na'er, its eyes actually brimmed with deep maternal love, but with Xuan Zi there, it dared not move recklessly.
Na'er let go of Mu Changqing's hand and threw herself toward the Mighty Vajra Bear under everyone's gazes. The girl and bear were very close.
Xuan Zi could now be one hundred percent certain that the Mighty Vajra Bear had raised Na'er, and he felt a moment of happiness.
He also examined Na'er's physical condition.
The Mighty Vajra Bear had raised her very well, treating her as its own daughter.
Soul beast milk was an extremely gentle, nourishing tonic for humans.
Na'er had appeared in the mixed zone, so her parents' soul power ranks should not have been low. With the long-term nourishment of beast milk as well, her innate soul power should not be poor.
And her martial soul seems to resonate with Mu Changqing's. The day our Shrek dominates the continent is just around the corner!!
The more Xuan Zi thought about it, the more excited he became. His hand rapidly stroked his filthy beard. He had also taken the opportunity to check Na'er's bone age just now: five years old.
She should have potential worth nurturing.
Mu Changqing, Bei Bei:............
Meanwhile, the Tyrannosaurus looked at Na'er and let out a low growl. It looked at this common sovereign of soul beasts, wanting her to save its life.
"Mu Changqing, absorb it!"
Xuan Zi abruptly unleashed a soul skill. The Tyrannosaurus was instantly reduced to a sliver of health, barely breathing. It looked at Na'er, a tear spilling from its eye.
Seeing it, Na'er felt an inexplicable heartache, but she could not remember anything, nor could she do anything.
Mu Changqing possessed himself with his Golden Dragon King martial soul. His entire right arm transformed into a resplendent golden dragon claw as he headed toward the Tyrannosaurus.
When the Golden Dragon King's presence emerged, Na'er paused as she looked at Mu Changqing. This presence seemed to be what she liked, and her objective was also it, but Na'er could remember nothing.
The Tyrannosaurus possessed the Golden Dragon bloodline. Sensing that its own lord had returned, it gave a ringing roar.
Just as Mu Changqing prepared to kill the Tyrannosaurus, it willingly sacrificed itself to him. It bit its tongue and killed itself, and a stream of energy slowly rose from its corpse, forming a purple thousand-year soul ring.
"Elder Xuan, what's going on with this Tyrannosaurus?!"
Bei Bei watched the scene from the side in disbelief. It completely surpassed his understanding.
"The Tyrannosaurus sacrificed itself to Changqing!! This is the first time I've seen this in all my years! What the hell!"
Xuan Zi narrowed his eyes and stroked his chin.
"It must be Mu Changqing's Golden Dragon martial soul that made the Tyrannosaurus willing to sacrifice itself!"
There had only been two instances in history of soul beasts sacrificing themselves to humans: Tang San and his father ten thousand years ago. Their wives had both been hundred-thousand-year soul beasts.
Those were the only incidents of soul beasts sacrificing themselves to humans in these ten thousand years. Even if someone threatened them with their offspring, proud soul beasts would not submit to humans.
"Changqing, hurry and circulate your soul power to absorb the soul ring!! It would be bad if it dissipated!"
Xuan Zi urgently told Mu Changqing to absorb the soul ring and stop standing there in a daze.
Mu Changqing came to his senses, sat cross-legged, and circulated his soul power, drawing the thousand-year soul ring into himself. The Tyrannosaurus's soul ring contained not a trace of lingering resentment, and the energy felt immensely comfortable as it entered his meridians.
The other three waited silently where they stood.
Before long, Mu Changqing had completely refined the soul ring. He felt his strength increase a little more, and his soul power had risen four ranks.
"How is the soul skill the Tyrannosaurus gave you?"
Xuan Zi clasped his hands behind his back and raised his chin high, putting on the air of an expert.
"Elder Xuan, the soul skill the Tyrannosaurus gave me is called Dragon King Overlord Body!!"
"When I activate the soul skill, golden scales cover my whole body. Both defenses increase by one hundred percent, and the lower my soul power, the higher both defenses become!!"
"What? One hundred percent!! Your soul skill defies the heavens!!"
Xuan Zi lost his composure and began pacing about haphazardly.
Bei Bei was also startled. If he fought his older brother one-on-one, he would not even be able to break through his defenses. In a fight to the death, wouldn't he be beaten to death?
As expected, the strength path was the most underhanded. When it came to defense, it had strength; when it came to intelligence, it had strength. Who said the strength path was declining? Mu Changqing was practically a humanoid Tyrannosaurus.
Meanwhile, Na'er looked bewildered. She turned to look at Bei Bei, then at Mu Changqing, scratched her head, and threw herself back into the Mighty Jin'gang Bear's embrace.
"Changqing, activate your soul skill! Take a few punches from me, and let's see whether it's as you said!"
"All right!"
As Mu Changqing spoke, he activated his soul skill, Dragon King Overlord Body. Golden dragon scales covered his entire body, both arms transformed completely into golden dragon claws, and a Tyrannosaurus manifestation appeared behind him.
Xuan Zi froze briefly at the sight of the Tyrannosaurus behind Changqing. He stepped back with his left leg, then kicked it backward hard, following through with his right leg as he shot forward like an arrow from a fully drawn bow.
Xuan Zi became a streak of red light, hurtling toward Mu Changqing. He raised his left fist and hammered it toward Mu Changqing's chest. Mu Changqing did not block Elder Xuan's attack, letting him strike his golden dragon scales.
Xuan Zi's punch drove Mu Changqing back several steps, but under the protection of the golden dragon scales, he remained unharmed.
"Not bad! I won't hold back anymore. Let's test your limits!"
Xuan Zi praised Mu Changqing, then suddenly turned and slammed his right elbow viciously into Mu Changqing's back. Mu Changqing's Tyrannosaurus phantom firmly blocked it.
Still not satisfied, Xuan Zi forcefully grabbed Mu Changqing's left arm and lifted him clean off his feet, then threw him into the sky.
Watching this, Bei Bei broke out in a cold sweat. If Xuan Zi beat him like this, even if he was not crippled, he would have to lie in bed for several days.
Just like that, Mu Changqing took a beating in midair. His clothes were in tatters, his body ached a little, and he lay sprawled on the ground as the dragon scales receded from his body.
"Even a Soul Elder would struggle to break through your defenses!! Your strength is fierce as hell, too!"
"But your weakness is that your soul power runs out faster than other people's."
Xuan Zi offered his assessment of Mu Changqing's soul skill. He had also learned that the Tyrannosaurus phantom behind Mu Changqing was granted by the soul skill.
Mu Changqing propped himself up and stood. They prepared to return to Shrek Academy; they had been out for quite a while.
Na'er seemed reluctant to part with the Mighty Vajra Bear. Mu Changqing asked the bear whether it wanted to come back with them, and it nodded in response.
With the Mighty Vajra Bear joining them, Mu Changqing and the others could only walk back. The four people and one bear headed toward Shrek City's eastern gate.
They chatted and laughed along the way. As they passed through Shrek City, the bear caused quite a stir, but Xuan Zi calmed things down.
It was also the bear's first time in the human world, and it felt apprehensive and uneasy. However, with Na'er accompanying it the whole time, it slowly began to untie the knot in its heart.
Bei Bei returned to the Soul Tool Department, while Mu Changqing took Na'er and the Mighty Vajra Bear toward his apartment. Their lives became interesting.
Mu Changqing gave the Mighty Vajra Bear the name Da Huang, which it accepted. It stayed by itself in the courtyard.
After Na'er and Mu Changqing finished bathing, Mu Changqing was about to cut up the Tyrannosaurus meat in the kitchen when his ears caught a voice.
Mu En was looking for him. He took Na'er out and headed toward the Sea God Pavilion.
