Chapter 166: Neither kind nor proud.
Xue Ke was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Are you still thinking about defeating the two empires and unifying the continent?"
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, then said calmly: "I have never told you that I have the idea of unifying the continent. I am not interested in that kind of thing."
Xue Ke finally couldn't hold on any longer, and she just happened to want to see Qian Renxue make a fool of herself, so she plopped down comfortably on the ground. When she turned around, she found Qian Renxue still sitting leisurely in mid-air.
"Tsk, so what if you don't have any ideas? Not being interested doesn't mean you won't do it later. You've always been like this, following your heart and doing whatever you want."
"I've told you so many gentle little stories! But you haven't changed at all. You've grown crooked and become a bad woman!"
Qian Renxue raised her eyebrows with disdain in her eyes, "What the hell are you talking about? Don't say that kind of boring nonsense anymore. You're just wasting my time."
Xue Ke looked indignant. She tilted her head back and pouted her lips, just like an indignant puffer fish.
"What a boring thing! I want to tell you that good people will be rewarded! The bad guys in the story will not have a good ending! Do you still remember Cinderella I mentioned? It was because of her kindness that she was able to get help from so many friends and finally lived a happy life with the prince."
"Kind?"
Qian Renxue sneered, "That's just a trick to fool children. In essence, it's still the pity of the strong for the weak. Besides, how do you know that Cinderella is kind?"
“Perhaps the kind and ordinary Cinderella is not kind, she is just ordinary. Perhaps the proud and vicious little princess is not vicious, she is just proud. Cinderella used her cleverness to portray herself as kind and pitiful, and at the same time portrayed the princess as vicious and despised.”
"Ake, guess, am I a kind-hearted Cinderella or a proud princess?"
Xue Ke remained silent, her beautiful eyes filled with complexity.
Qian Renxue was not prepared to listen to her reply and continued to speak, "I am neither kind nor proud. I am the smartest Cinderella, but also the most vicious princess."
"So—I will never lose."
Qian Renxue's figure flashed, and she was already standing in the air between Artorius and Tang San. She stood with her hands behind her back, looking at the two people who were full of tension in the field, and said lightly: "The fighting spirit begins."
As Qian Renxue's voice rang out, Artorius clenched his hands and an invisible sword appeared in his hands.
At this time, both of Artorius' arms were covered with blue and silver arm armor, and two eye-catching soul rings emerged from under his feet.
Those were not the two yellow soul rings that were the theoretically optimal soul ring configuration, but the unprecedented yellow and purple!
The luxurious purple soul ring exuded extremely powerful soul power fluctuations, but Tang San's heart became calmer.
However, every time he saw Artorius's purple thousand-year soul ring, Tang San couldn't help feeling annoyed. If he hadn't been so cautious at the beginning, he would have chosen the second thousand-year soul ring.
It’s a pity that he believed what Yu Xiaogang said about the maximum lifespan of the spirit ring and didn’t take Artorius’s reminder to heart at all.
Are all geniuses different from others? As expected, I am different from Artorius and the others. My innate full soul power is only cultivated through the Xuantian Gong.
Tang San sighed lightly, then collected his mind. In the face of tremendous pressure, Tang San began to become different. The violent impulse hidden in his heart gradually emerged. His eyes were covered with a layer of light purple, and he slowly raised his right hand.
Dark blue light surged suddenly, and a cluster of dark blue grass suddenly grew out of his palm. Each blade of grass looked very slender, but it was covered with snake patterns. The blades of grass were no longer flat like before. , but turned into a cylindrical shape. If you observe carefully, you can clearly see that these grass blades are covered with fine thorns.
Milky white light surged out from Tang San's body, and the dark blue grass blades suddenly enlarged as if being stimulated by something, and in the blink of an eye they became as thick as a human arm, like a rattan. The black snake pattern shone with a faint light, nimbly hovering around Tang San's body like dozens of big snakes.
Two circles of yellow spirit rings rose from Tang San's feet at the same time, hovering above his body.
"Here I come!" Artorius was the first to lose his patience. He stomped on the ground with a bang, and the next moment he had flashed in front of Tang San.
Artorius's face was calm, and he raised the sword diagonally with his right hand.
Tang San retreated quickly without hesitation, stepping on the Ghost Shadow, and dodged Artorius' attack at the critical moment. Others did not know the length of the invisible sword, but he knew it very well. The two of them had no idea how many times they had sparred with each other.
At the same time, the first soul ring lit up, and blue silver was wrapped around it!!!
The Blue Silver Grass Martial Spirit released by Tang San immediately moved rapidly, circles of blue-black thick vines swirled out, rushing towards Artorius' body from all directions, while Tang San himself disappeared quietly as if hidden in the vines.
Artorius smiled faintly. Who can you control with the blue silver grass? His sword of oath of victory is not afraid of blue silver entanglement!
There was a flash of light in Artorius' eyes, and his whole body was covered with surging soul power. He waved his arms, and the invisible sword in his hand cut into pieces all the vines that rushed to his side.
After the second ring, Tang San's vines became extremely tough. Even the Soul Master-level dean of the academy could not cut them completely, and could only tear them in half. Moreover, the blue silver vines themselves would heal quickly. However, that was only when facing ordinary soul masters. For real top-level martial spirits, the so-called toughness of the blue silver grass was too weak.
The scent of tea with a faint sweetness spreads among the vines, and these vines seem to be endless, constantly rising from all directions.
From the outside, Artorius' body had been trapped in the huge vines. When Tang San was about to activate his second soul skill, parasitism, suddenly, countless blue lights suddenly shot out from the gaps in the vines, followed by a dull explosion.
A circle of azure energy suddenly burst out from Artorius' body, and it actually shattered all the vines formed by the blue silver grass within the surrounding ten meters into powder. The powerful shock wave created a huge hole under Artorius' feet.
"Oh, it's useless."
Artorius chuckled, and the purple soul ring that lit up on his body slowly subsided. That was his second soul skill, the release of soul power.
The martial soul and the host are one. Tang San's face suddenly turned pale and he took a step back before he could stand firm.
Artorius smiled and said, "How is it, Xiaosan? The parasitic seeds you secretly placed on me were also shattered by me. You are powerless now, right?"
"Your neurotoxins are all on the vine thorns formed by your second soul skill. Otherwise, with the fragrance of the blue silver grass, I wouldn't be paralyzed even if I smelled it for a whole day."
Tang San's eyes flickered and he pursed his lips tightly. The perseverance of the second-ring Blue Silver Grass was no match for the Sword of Promised Victory, and the second soul ring, parasitism, and seed were shattered by the soul power released by Artorius before they could even take effect.
It seemed that his shortcomings were not compensated by the spirit ring. In terms of martial spirit, he was completely at a disadvantage. He couldn't figure out where his problem lay, nor did he understand in which direction he should develop.
He even doubted whether it was a mistake for him to follow Yu Xiaogang on the path of a control-type soul master.
He was able to control the Dean before because each of his spirit rings was of better quality than those of others. However, facing a genius with a top-level martial spirit like Artorius, his spirit skills no longer had any advantages.
When the Blue Silver Grass's own flaws were exposed, Tang San immediately realized his own problem. A truly powerful control-type spirit master must not only be able to control, but also have spirit skills that give him certain attack capabilities.
The more he thought about it, the less confidence Tang San had in the Blue Silver Grass. His heart was like a turbulent sea, and all kinds of chaotic thoughts made him feel a little crazy.
Artorius said in surprise, "Xiao San! Why are you distracted? Are you still going to fight? I have learned new sword moves from the teacher! Although the teacher's martial soul is an angel, the angel martial soul comes with an angel holy sword. Our martial souls are all swords! It's a pity that I haven't learned the teacher's sword intent yet, otherwise I will definitely be stronger! Let me try the moves quickly!"
Listening to Artorius's excited words, Tang San's eyes became dimmer and dimmer. Did he choose the wrong teacher? Artorius, who was the same age as him, was getting stronger and stronger. Now, with the unique skills of the Tang Sect, he might be able to compete with him, but what about in the future? The gap will only get bigger and bigger.
Tang San shook his head at Artorius, "Sorry, I give up."
He turned to look at Qian Renxue, whose eyes were calm, and asked, "Teacher Qian, can a Blue Silver Grass Spirit Master really become a strong person through cultivation?" "You can become a strong person, but you can't become the strongest person."
Qian Renxue's eyes were a little vague. It should have been possible originally, but it would probably not work after the first two soul rings absorbed the poisonous soul ring. His Blue Silver Herb was already weak, and now it was forever missing the life source of two soul rings.
Now, he can only truly transform into the Blue Silver Emperor after his father takes him to find the Blue Silver King to replenish Tang San’s life essence.
"Then what should I do? Switch to cultivating the second martial soul?" Tang San asked impatiently. Three years of getting along with each other had made Tang San completely trust Xue Ke and Artorius.
However, he was somewhat surprised to find that both Artorius and Xue Ke had expressions of being accustomed to it, and there was no surprise at all. Could it be that they already knew that he had twin martial spirits?
Qian Renxue looked at him calmly, with disappointment in her eyes, "How did your teacher teach you? Why didn't he tell you such an important thing? The biggest advantage of twin martial spirits is not having an extra martial spirit, but the age of the spirit rings!"
"Yes, if you choose to practice Clear Sky Hammer now, it will indeed allow you to improve your strength in a short period of time. As long as you have the right spirit ring, you will immediately become powerful, even stronger than Artorius and A Ke.
"But have you ever thought about it? If you start practicing Clear Sky Hammer at level 90 and get nine spirit rings, what quality will that be? At that time, even if you get nine hundred thousand year spirit rings and apply them to yourself at the same time, it is not impossible."
Tang San's pupils shrank, and he suddenly remembered the nine astonishing spirit rings he saw three years ago. So this is what it was like!
The confusion in his heart gradually faded away, and Tang San only felt that the fog in his heart was quietly dissipating. Teacher Qian was worthy of being a Titled Douluo, and he really hit the nail on the head. Even if he was not a match for Artorius now, when he cultivated his second martial soul, it would be time to attack and defend the aliens!
Moreover, it turns out that Teacher Qian also has twin martial spirits! Tang San couldn't help but be more dissatisfied with Yu Xiaogang. Why didn't he tell him in advance about the advantages of twin martial spirits? He was almost going to practice the Clear Sky Hammer.
As expected, his godmother is more suitable to be his teacher! They both have the secret of twin martial spirits, and she is the most advanced twin martial spirit master!
Tang San regained his confidence, "Thank you! I understand, I won't give up the Blue Silver Grass."
Qian Renxue nodded, but Artorius next to her suddenly thought of something and said, "Teacher, didn't you say before that Blue Silver Grass would have a bright future if it took the path of life attribute?"
Tang San's originally relaxed body suddenly stiffened again. Life attribute? Isn't that the route that Yu Xiaogang said was impossible to take?
Qian Renxue was silent for a while, looking a little embarrassed.
Tang San only felt his heart pounding nervously, his whole body was cold, he clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and said: "Teacher, you don't have to worry about Yu Xiaogang, please tell me about the path of life attributes, please."
Qian Renxue muttered in her heart that Artorius was really Tang San's good brother. He would not be happy until Tang San's mentality collapsed.
Qian Renxue said calmly: "The life attribute is indeed the most fundamental path of Blue Silver Grass, and it is also the path that is originally most suitable for you. It's just that there are very few Blue Silver Grass soul masters who can practice it, so few people know this secret."
"The spirit origin is the most important essence of all spirits, and it is also the fundamental reason why spirits can evolve. Just like the Holy Dragon Douluo, the third worshiper in the Spirit Hall, when his spirit awakened, he was an ordinary white-armored earth dragon, but when he had his seventh spirit ring, he supplemented his spirit origin. The original white-armored earth dragon transformed into a super spirit, the White-armored Holy Dragon, and became the third strongest in the Spirit Hall after the Great Worshiper and the Second Worshiper. He is a Super Douluo at the peak of level 97, and is only a step away from level 98."
"If the seventh soul ring is the most important threshold for a soul master, and it is the key to determining the true transformation of the martial soul, then the first six soul rings are to replenish the original energy needed for the martial soul to evolve."
In the Douluo Continent at this time, all the Titled Douluo's martial souls are of poor quality. This is because soul masters with poor martial souls generally do not know how to choose soul rings that are suitable for themselves to transform their martial souls, and naturally they cannot break through the bottleneck of level 90.
There are hundreds of Soul Douluo in the open nowadays, but there are only a dozen Titled Douluo in the open, because the soul rings of those Soul Douluo are not suitable for their martial souls, unless their soul rings are the kind of hundred thousand year soul rings that can seize the fortune of heaven and earth. Otherwise, for those Soul Douluo without soul cores, level ninety is an unreachable bottleneck.
"If your first six spirit rings are all life attribute spirit rings that are close to the essence, then perhaps a transformation will occur at the seventh spirit ring, and the weak Blue Silver Grass martial spirit will evolve."
"But now you are following the poison system. Although the Blue Silver Grass is not repelled because it is weak, it does not conform to the life essence of the Blue Silver Grass. If there is no chance, you will have no possibility of evolving your martial soul after losing two spirit rings."
"I wanted to remind you at first, but Yu Xiaogang is the teacher appointed by your father after all, and I naturally trust him 100%. After you get your first spirit ring, I can't tell you anymore. After all, you have already embarked on the path of poison attribute. Telling you now will only cause more trouble."
Tang San's body was shaking, his eyes were red, and he asked in a hoarse voice: "Teacher, can I still take the path of life attribute?"
Qian Renxue shook her head. "The seventh soul ring is a critical point. The first six soul rings are indispensable, unless your later soul rings absorb life attribute soul rings to make up for the lost life essence. But in this case, the poison of your blue silver grass will not be able to continue to evolve."
"I can't reach the extreme in any direction. Whether it's the origin of poison or the origin of life, I'm just a half-baked soul master."
Xue Ke had also rested enough, so she came over and said with some interest, "It's a pity if that's the case. If the Blue Silver Grass had the attribute of life, it could have assisted its second martial soul. How powerful would an invincible attacking spirit master be?"
Xue Ke is now working towards this goal.
"I don't quite understand why the master wants you to take the path of poison attribute. If you can't evolve, can the fragile blue silver entanglement plus the poison control others? Look at the battle today. Facing the top martial spirit, you have no ability to fight back at all."
The more Tang San listened, the more terrified he became. He suddenly thought of something, and as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw, he hurriedly asked: "Teacher, you said that apart from me, there are not many Blue Silver Grass Spirit Masters who can practice. Doesn't this mean that the path of life attributes is also unknown?"
Qian Renxue shook her head and continued, "Although there are not many Blue Silver Grass spirit masters who can practice, there was indeed a spirit master whose martial soul was the Blue Silver Emperor more than ten years ago. She is also a control-type spirit master like you. The Blue Silver Emperor is the evolved form of Blue Silver Grass. She is a control-type spirit master who follows the origin of life attributes and has both control and healing abilities."
"Your origin is poison, which is too far away from her origin of life. But don't be discouraged. Maybe the blue silver grass really has a second origin path. After all, before that soul master appeared, no one knew that the blue silver grass could take the route of the origin of life."
These explanations instantly plunged Tang San into a whirlpool of pain. It turned out that he had been left with no way out by the beast Yu Xiaogang! At this point, he could only continue on the path of poison attribute.
But soon, the pain in Tang San's heart was replaced by the reluctance of Qian Renxue to leave. Teacher Qian was going to leave him. At this point, Teacher Qian was the only relative he had left. If she didn't come back, what should he do?
"Teacher Qian, do you really have to leave?"
"That's enough. She's just going to participate in the young generation of the continent's elite soul master competition. She's talking like she's dying."
Xue Ke rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction. She couldn't stand Tang San's current expression. Qian Renxue and her were the best in the world! What was a little Tang San? Qian Renxue had even made her the Golden Battle Armor of Life and gave it to her.
You should know that the forging method of gold of life is different from that of ordinary metals. It requires the use of mental power in the sea of spirit to forge it into shape.
That piece of Life Gold was indeed not small. Even if Qian Renxue made a complete set of battle armor for Xue Ke, she still had one third of it left, which was more than enough for Alex.
Tang San looked at Qian Renxue with burning eyes, "The whole continent? Can we go and see it too?"
Tang San was not stupid. After realizing that Qian Renxue had twin spirits, he knew that Qian Renxue must not be much older than him.
Tang San planned to take advantage of Qian Renxue's absence to kill Gangzi, who had harmed his cultivation path, and then go to watch Qian Renxue's game with Artorius and others. He no longer believed in Yu Xiaogang at all.
Qian Renxue nodded indifferently, "It's up to you guys."
"Then I want to go and see it too! I'm your loyal fan! Teacher Qian!"
Artorius suddenly let out a strange cry, and while Xue Ke was not paying attention, he secretly stuffed a gem-like object and a letter into Qian Renxue's hands behind her back.
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, subconsciously clenched her hands, and then put the things in her hands into the storage bracelet.
She turned to look at Artorius, only to find that this guy had already run behind Xue Ke. He winked at her with his teeth bared, pointed at Xue Ke, and made a gesture to keep quiet.
