Second Martial Soul
Wang Xingyu quickly analyzed the current situation.
The opponent's strength is no weaker than Xiao Wu's, and may even be stronger, while I focus on endurance and don't have any powerful offensive Soul Skill.
There are two main ways to win: First, rely on Xiao Wu's attacks and your own recovery to fight a protracted war; second, rely on Xiao Wu to stall for time, using Blue Silver Grass in conjunction with the Mental Interference of the Head Soul Bone to control the opponent in an illusion.
There might be a better way, but time is too short.
Gu Kesi clapped his hands, seemingly quite impressed with Xiao Wu, and his hoarse voice rang out. "You are the strongest Soul Master of your level that I have ever seen! As long as I fuse with you, I will definitely be able to advance even further—hahaha!"
Xiao Wu stared at the other person without turning her head. "What's this guy babbling about?"
"I don't know, whatever. Let's wear him down first, then I'll find an opportunity," Wang Xingyu replied quickly.
Before the two could even make a move, Gu Kesi launched the first attack.
A purple Soul Ring lit up, Black Dragon Entanglement.
Two black shadows on the ground moved swiftly like snakes, aiming straight for the two men's legs.
Wang Xingyu shouted "Be careful!" and activated his Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone. Blue wings unfurled behind him, and he soared into the air.
Xiao Wu simultaneously unleashed Moon Shadow, splitting her figure into three. Her true form passed through two afterimages and charged straight towards Gu Kesi.
A hint of surprise flashed in Gu Kesi's eyes. He seemed not to have expected that the two of them could break his Soul Skill so easily, and that the man seemed to be using Soul Bone.
In that instant, Xiao Wu had already closed in on him.
"What are you thinking about?" Xiao Wu snorted coldly, activated her Self-Created Soul Skill Waist Bow, twisted her waist, grabbed Gu Kesi's belt with both hands, and flung him into the air.
She then used her feet to push off and followed up with a series of Eight-Stage Throw.
However, Gu Kesi possessed Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and Black Dragon Martial Soul, making him extremely powerful. He assumed a defensive stance in mid-air, protecting his vitals with his hands and his entire body covered in scales, indicating that he was not completely controlled by Xiao Wu.
Wang Xingyu seized this opportunity to make his move.
Five Blue Silver Grass shot towards Gu Kesi from five different directions simultaneously—he didn't believe his opponent could attack from five directions at once.
Just as the vines were about to touch Gu Kesi, another purple Soul Ring lit up.
Wang Xingyu's pupils contracted, and he immediately reminded her, "Xiao Wu, Invincible Golden Body!"
Roar—A dragon roar exploded from Gu Kesi's mouth.
The Black Dragon Roar, and visible sound waves spread violently outwards from him, causing a brief dizzying effect. Fortunately, Xiao Wu had already activated her Invincible Golden Body, and golden-red light enveloped her entire body.
But the two were still stunned by the dragon's roar at such close range that their minds went blank.
The blue lines on Wang Xingyu's forehead lit up first—a ten-thousand-year- Head Soul Bone, its Spiritual Power far surpassing that of its peers.
The next moment he broke free from the dizziness and immediately transmitted his Spiritual Power to Xiao Wu through the Blue Silver Grass, and Xiao Wu also woke up.
And a bone even appeared on Gu Kesi's forehead.
A circle of black light spread out from between his eyebrows, enveloping the entire secret chamber.
Wang Xingyu instantly sensed the disorder in his Spiritual Power. Was it an illusion? He hadn't expected that Gu Kesi would also have a head-shaped spiritual Soul Bone.
Without any hesitation, the blue lines on his forehead lit up again.
The power of the two Head Soul Bone collided silently in the air, eventually canceling each other out.
Xiao Wu pushed off with her feet, using the momentum to retreat back to Wang Xingyu's side.
Both sides showed surprise in this round of combat.
What surprised them most was that both of them actually possessed a spiritual Soul Bone in their heads.
Gu Kesi's face darkened, his earlier confidence gone. The brief stun from the Black Dragon Roar, combined with the illusion—this was supposed to be his trump card—had completely failed to work.
Wang Xingyu also understood the opponent's Soul Skill configuration.
The black, Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring strengthens itself, causing part of its body to transform into a dragon shape.
Of the four Thousand-Year Soul Ring, the one from the Black Dragon Entanglement and the one from the Black Dragon Roar are still uncertain.
One of the most likely possibilities is devouring, but the specific limits of devouring, and whether the increase in years is achieved through Soul Skill or the secret techniques of Evil Soul Master, are currently unknown.
However, the general information is sufficient.
The first plan can be implemented—using a war of attrition to wear down the opponent.
Wang Xingyu's Blue Silver Grass spread out first, and more than a dozen vines attacked Gu Kesi from all directions at the same time.
The purpose was not to bind him, but to test the strength of the Soul Skill.
Sure enough, three black dragon head phantoms appeared beside Gu Kesi, opening their mouths to bite and swallow the attacking Blue Silver Grass one by one, making a soft crunching sound as they chewed.
Gu Kesi's hoarse voice was laced with sarcasm. "As expected, you people are just stupid. To attack with something like Blue Silver Grass."
Wang Xingyu chuckled, "Don't underestimate it."
First Soul Skill: Life Drain.
It's not just the other party that will devour it.
Gu Kesi felt his Soul Power being drawn away Sisi along the vines. He was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, even louder than before, his sunken eyes gleaming with greed.
"You two have truly surprised me! I never imagined your Blue Silver Grass possessed such a function—once I absorb both of you, my power will evolve once more! I will become a true god!"
However, despite this, no new black dragon heads appeared beside Gu Kesi.
It seems that three dragon heads are already the limit of his Soul Skill. But these Blue Silver Grass are not Wang Xingyu's limit. What does it mean to be Soul Ancestor with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?
The Blue Silver Grass spread out more and more, and the three dragon heads clearly couldn't absorb it all; in fact, Wang Xingyu was even drawing away their Soul Power.
Gu Kesi's eyes turned cold, and another purple Soul Ring lit up.
Three black claw-like blades burst forth from the gaps in the Blue Silver Grass, slashing straight towards the two.
Xiao Wu reacted swiftly, grabbing Wang Xingyu by the back of the neck and leaping a few steps to the side. Her claws grazed the hem of their clothes and struck the stone wall behind them, leaving three deep cracks.
All five of his Soul Skill were revealed.
Their strength is indeed considerable, but unfortunately, both of them have cheat codes.
Wang Xingyu called out to Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu understood, activated her Teleportation, and created Moon Shadow that left afterimages. The Moonfall and crashed down, but instead of colliding head-on, she kept pulling and weaving around Gu Kesi.
In addition, Wang Xingyu's Blue Silver Grass continued to harass them; the vines weren't very strong, but there were just too many of them.
As soon as one piece was broken, another one immediately appeared.
With the two working together, Gu Kesi's Soul Power was being depleted more and more rapidly.
At first, he could withstand Xiao Wu's attacks and counterattack with his claws, but later his counterattacks became slower and slower, and eventually it was Xiao Wu's one-sided suppression.
"Behold my final strike, Rabbit Leap Meteor!"
A pink protective shield enveloped Xiao Wu, and she jumped onto the wall behind her.
The Rabbit Leap Meteor isn't just for getting around; it can also be used to hit people—and this was the first time she'd ever used it.
Xiao Wu star, trailing a pink tail flame, and rushed straight towards Gu Kesi.
Gu Kesi had been nearly exhausted by the two of them; the enhanced state of his Fifth Soul Skill was long gone, and he was panting heavily with only a few tattered black scales left on his body.
He noticed Xiao Wu's attack, and a final glint of cold light flashed in his sunken eyes.
"You—you're asking for death!" All the scales on his body instantly disappeared, and his abdomen suddenly split open.
A gigantic maw emerged from the gash in its belly, larger than ever before, its two rows of jagged, sharp teeth gleaming a ghastly white in the dimly lit chamber.
Xiao Wu has already rushed out.
She transformed into a pink shooting star and plunged directly into the giant mouth. The mouth closed, and the pink light vanished into Gu Kesi's abdominal cavity.
"What?!"
Wang Xingyu's pupils suddenly contracted.
He also thought Xiao Wu's attack was the final blow, but he didn't expect Gu Kesi to have one last trump card.
