"But unfortunately, Zhu Zhuqing, although you have indeed obtained a tremendous opportunity, and it can even be said that at the Soul Elder level, few can rival you, Jin He is not weak either," Qi Ling said.
"Leaving aside the fact that his Mutated Martial Soul is extremely difficult to deal with, even comparable to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the seven-level difference in Soul Power between you is an insurmountable chasm!"
"After all, not everyone is like me; the difference in Soul Power is very difficult to overcome."
Even the usually stern Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but roll her eyes at Qi Ling. This guy's words were sometimes just too infuriating!
"If I gave you another year, you would definitely be able to defeat Jin He by then, but unfortunately, what you lack most right now is time, so using the usual methods, it's definitely not going to let you win."
Hearing Qi Ling's words, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes lit up. "If we can't win using the usual methods, then... we can win using special methods?"
Qi Ling gave a helpless smirk. "Sometimes I really wish you weren't so quick to risk your life."
"Yes, if you use special methods, you can win, even win very easily!"
"What method?" Zhu Zhuqing asked hurriedly.
"Remember what I said before, that it could only be done after you obtained your Third Soul Ring?" Qi Ling said, "Now, what I'm going to do is that: I'm going to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with you!"
" Martial Soul Fusion Skill?" Zhu Zhuqing frowned and asked, "What is that?"
"Simply put, it's about Martial Soul Fusion to generate even greater power," Qi Ling explained. "Depending on the harmony between our Martial Soul, it can even produce power exceeding our level."
Originally, Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai could activate the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Hell White Tiger. However, in this life, the two are like strangers, so they are naturally unable to use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill that requires perfect complementarity.
However, Qi Ling and Zhu Zhuqing are different. At this moment, their Martial Soul Affinity has reached 100%, and the conditions are more than sufficient for them to unleash their Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
"Then, what do I need to do?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"Don't rush. To achieve Martial Soul Fusion, the two people must first be of one mind and one spirit, reaching a complete spiritual fusion!" Qi Ling said. "Come on, give me your hand. It might be a little difficult the first time, let's take it slowly..."
Before Qi Ling could finish speaking, he instantly felt that his consciousness and Zhu Zhuqing's consciousness had perfectly merged, each containing the other.
There is only one possibility for this to happen: Zhu Zhuqing completely trusts him and has no wariness or defenses against him whatsoever.
Qi Ling didn't know why Zhu Zhuqing trusted him so much, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore and could only continue.
"Now summon your Nether Civet Martial Soul, but don't let it possess you. Instead, let it be in a summoned state and fuse with my Martial Soul! Once they have fused, you can unleash the power of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
Following Qi Ling's instructions, Zhu Zhuqing successfully summoned the Hell Spirit Cat, but instead of possessing it, it remained inside her body.
At the same time, Qi Ling summoned his Blood Devil Emperor Martial Soul, which entered Zhu Zhuqing's body and immediately merged with her Zhu Zhuqing Martial Soul after contact.
Once the two merged, Zhu Zhuqing instantly unleashed an extremely sharp aura that sent chills down one's spine.
As she opened her eyes, two cold beams shot out from them, like a sharp dagger drawn from its sheath, ready to take a life at any moment.
At the same time, Zhu Zhuqing's body seemed to be enveloped by some kind of mysterious energy, which allowed her to create countless afterimages as she moved, making her figure even more unpredictable and mysterious.
These strange black energies, usually resembling a layer of black veil, quietly adhered to her body surface, like a black lace dress, perfectly outlining Zhu Zhuqing's stunning figure.
These energies only truly come into play when the creature is in action, not only confusing the enemy's vision but also producing other amazing effects.
" Zhu Zhuqing & Blood Devil Emperor Martial Soul Fusion Skill: Nether Battle Maiden!"
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing was like a dancer descended from the Netherworld, mysterious yet deadly alluring, but also a deadly poison that could kill anyone instantly.
Feeling this novel power, Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were filled with shock. This was a powerful power she had never felt before, so powerful that she couldn't even fully control it.
"Take your time, Zhu Zhuqing, don't panic. Feel it with your heart. All of this belongs to you, it came for you, it was born for you!" Qi Ling gently guided Zhu Zhuqing Qing.
Under Qi Ling's guidance, Zhu Zhuqing gradually found her footing. She closed her eyes, and as if she had vanished into the void, she turned into a phantom and disappeared instantly.
When she reappeared, she was already behind Qi Ling, appearing like a shadow gathering from the sky, her movements completely unpredictable.
Sensing the fluctuations of Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power as she moved, Qi Ling couldn't help but sigh with admiration. Even she could only vaguely sense the fluctuations of Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power when she moved; others would probably not have noticed them at all.
Such terrifying stealth ability makes her practically a perfect assassin! Not to mention, Zhu Zhuqing's hands have also been greatly enhanced, and her claw strikes are enough to kill in one blow!
With a gentle wave of her hand, the table beside her shattered in two! Zhu Zhuqing stared at her hands in disbelief and said, "Is this... the power I possess?"
"No, now it should be the power of both of us!" Qi Ling said. "Remember, in your current state, the Nether Battle Maiden form can only last for ten minutes. Once that time is up, the two Martial Soul will automatically separate."
"However, with your current strength, you can defeat Jin He in less than ten minutes!"
Zhu Zhuqing silently looked at her hands, her fingers transforming into claws, the tips of which were enveloped in black energy. Even without waving them, one could feel their terrifying power.
"Then, Qi Ling..." Zhu Zhuqing said, "If it were now... could I beat you?"
Qi Ling sighed helplessly, flicked Zhu Zhuqing's forehead with her hand, and said, "You little brat, you're using my power, how are you going to fight me?"
"I... I meant 'what if'," Zhu Zhuqing said, covering her head in frustration. Even though her speed was already unbelievably fast, why couldn't she dodge Qi Ling's head-flicking attack?
"What if... what if..." Qi Ling pondered, "If... do you think you could beat me?"
Zhu Zhuqing thought about it carefully, then shook her head and said, "I... I can't imagine what it would be like to beat you. No, rather... I can't imagine what it would be like for you to lose."
"Haha, you really trust me too much," Qi Ling laughed. "Alright, Martial Soul Fusion Skill consume a lot of stamina, you should deactivate it first."
"Huh? Don't we need to practice in actual combat to understand the attack methods in this state?" Zhu Zhuqing asked doubtfully. "Then how am I supposed to win?"
"How do you win? It's simple!" Qi Ling laughed, "Just go easy on me, and you'll win!"
