Chapter 109: Lingxu VS Qianjun Douluo!

~14 min read 2,601 words

Lingxu hurried back without a moment's rest, returning within the final two hours. If he had delayed and missed the God Trial, the punishment would be something Lingxu could not bear right now.

Qian Renxue said, "Brother Lingxu, you scared me to death. It's a good thing you returned in time, otherwise I..."

Lingxu smiled and said, "Xue'er, didn't I return? I will participate in the God Trial immediately; there is still time."

"Good, then prepare to begin the God Trial. I have already had all the Consecrated of the Offering Hall assemble for you to choose from," Qian Daoliu said.

Just as Qian Daoliu finished speaking, the side door slowly opened, and one by one, tall and imposing Consecrated walked out.

A total of six people walked out!

Standing before these six people, ordinary Spirit Masters would be unable to withstand the overwhelming aura they brought with them.

Fortunately, Lingxu was no longer an ordinary Spirit Master, and even standing opposite them, he did not fear these six Consecrated.

"Everyone, introduce yourselves," Qian Daoliu said.

The first to speak was an elderly man in gold robes with silver embroidery, his hair and beard completely white.

One could see he wore a long golden robe representing the status of a Consecrated, distinct from the black robes worn by Spirit Douluo and the red robes worn by Elders.

"Second Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Jin E Douluo, martial soul Golden Crocodile King, Level 98 Power Attack System Douluo!"

"Third Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Qingluan Douluo, martial soul Qingluan, Level 97 Power Attack System Douluo!"

Qingluan Douluo had short, deep blue hair and smoky blue eyes, with sky-blue bangs, sword-like brows, and star-like eyes; his appearance was handsome. Qingluan Douluo wore a blue-green Consecrated robe and golden shoulder armor, with blue-green luan feathers decorating the shoulder armor.

"Fourth Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Xiongzhi Douluo, martial soul Blazing Lion, Level 97 Power Attack System Douluo!"

"Fifth Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Guangling Douluo, martial soul Light Feather Bow, Level 96 Power Attack System Douluo!"

"Sixth Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Qianjun Douluo, martial soul Dragon-Coiling Staff, Level 96 Power Attack System Douluo!"

"Seventh Consecrated of the Offering Hall, Jiangmo Douluo, martial soul Dragon-Coiling Staff, Level 96 Power Attack System Douluo!"

After the seven Consecrated finished their introductions, it was Lingxu's turn.

As a junior, Lingxu first politely bowed and said, "Junior Lingxu, martial soul Six-Winged Holy Light Tiger, currently Level 93 soul power, and I do not yet have a title."

"What? Little Ling, you are already a Title Douluo?" Qian Daoliu asked in confusion.

How long had it even been?

Before this God Trial, Lingxu's soul power was only at the 70s, not even Level 80, and in just 108 days, he had already reached Level 93 soul power?

"Qian Yeye, my cultivation speed has been a bit fast lately, and I broke through smoothly." Lingxu looked at Qian Daoliu with a smile, then glanced at Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue was also somewhat puzzled; how could Brother Lingxu's cultivation speed be this fast?

"Brother Lingxu, you aren't lying to me, are you? You really reached Level 93?"

Just then, Lingxu released his martial soul, the Six-Winged Holy Light Tiger.

Then, nine Spirit Rings lit up.

The colors were purple, purple, purple, black, black, black, red, red, red!

"This..."

Lingxu's Spirit Rings also shocked the other Consecrated on the scene.

Three purple, three black, three red.

Three 100,000-year Spirit Rings, and he had already reached Level 93 soul power.

The God Trial only required Lingxu to fight for the duration of one incense stick?

Was this too easy?

Several Consecrated looked left and right, all revealing expressions of disbelief.

Qian Daoliu said, "Lingxu, who do you want to challenge?"

Lingxu pondered for a moment. He had originally wanted to challenge Qian Daoliu, but after fighting Bibi Dong, he realized that the higher the soul power, the greater the gap.

One cannot be reckless in a God Trial; one only needs to pass.

So, Lingxu immediately pointed to a person nearby and said, "Then, Senior Qianjun Douluo it is."

"Choosing me?" Qianjun Douluo stepped out.

The Fifth Consecrated, Guangling Douluo, said, "Qianjun, you must fight well; don't get bullied by this ten-year-old kid."

How could these Consecrated not know Lingxu?

After all, Lingxu and Qian Renxue often frequented the Offering Hall when they were young.

It was just that what surprised them was that Lingxu was not even fifteen years old and was already a Title Douluo; this speed of cultivation was simply inconceivable.

Three 100,000-year Spirit Rings meant that Lingxu's combat power was definitely not low, and their generation of Consecrated could very likely flip over if they faced Lingxu's challenge.

Qianjun Douluo said, "In my life, I have never lost when challenged."

He stepped forward a few paces, his Spirit Rings gradually lighting up, and then the Dragon-Coiling Staff appeared in his hand, *thud*...

He slammed the Dragon-Coiling Staff heavily onto the ground, and instantly, a wave of air surged forth, manifesting Qianjun Douluo's powerful aura.

"Can the battle begin?" Qianjun Douluo said.

At this very moment, Qian Daoliu waved one hand, and a lit stick of incense was inserted into the ground.

"When the incense burns, the battle begins; when the incense dies, the battle ends."

The incense was already lit, so the battle began at this moment.

Qianjun Douluo lifted the Dragon-Coiling Staff and then leaped with all his might to smash it toward Lingxu.

Lingxu, however, still used his First Spirit Skill.

Holy Light Defense!

It was just that this Holy Light Defense appeared too fragile under Qianjun Douluo's Dragon-Coiling Staff.

With a *thud*, the sound rang out; the Holy Light Defense originally had three layers of protection, but it was shattered in this instant.

Lingxu retreated several steps; this was merely Qianjun Douluo's ordinary attack.

"What? Little kid, are you afraid?" Qianjun Douluo said.

Lingxu laughed and said, "Senior Qianjun Douluo, how could I possibly be afraid?"

At this moment, the aura on Lingxu's body erupted.

Almost simultaneously, he activated his second and fourth soul skills.

The second soul skill, Flight, and the fourth soul skill, Saint Light Winged Tiger Transformation, enhanced his physical constitution.

Then, Lingxu clenched his fists and flew rapidly toward Qianjun Douluo.

The speed was so fast that even Qianjun Douluo had to treat it seriously.

The soul rings on his body lit up, then the Dragon-Coiling Staff descended, followed by what seemed like dozens or hundreds of Dragon-Coiling Staffs attacking.

Facing so many Dragon-Coiling Staffs, Lingxu immediately performed the Phantom Shadow Steps in mid-air.

In an instant, whether in the air or on the ground, there were shadows of Lingxu's Maze Phantom Step everywhere.

As a series of booming sounds rang out, all of the Dragon-Coiling Staff attacks missed.

The next instant, Lingxu had actually arrived in front of Qianjun Douluo.

Lingxu exerted force with his Eight Extremities Fist and punched toward Qianjun Douluo.

In this emergency, Qianjun Douluo could only block the Dragon-Coiling Staff in front of him.

Lingxu naturally used his right arm for this punch.

And his right arm had the bonus of a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Bone, so its power was not just ordinarily great.

Bang...

Lingxu's punch landed directly on the Dragon-Coiling Staff that Qianjun Douluo was blocking with.

Qianjun Douluo was clearly knocked backward by Lingxu, and he only stopped after flying thirty or forty meters away.

At this moment, Qianjun Douluo felt terrible; the webs between his thumbs and forefingers were in sharp pain, his internal organs had been shaken by this blow, and he even coughed up a mouthful of blood.

However, this was still not the strongest power of Lingxu's attack.

"Old Six, you must be careful; Lingxu's abilities are not bad," said Jin E Douluo.

"Qianjun, don't be careless!"

"Big Brother, keep it up!"

Several Consecrated ones cheered for Qianjun Douluo one after another.

As for Lingxu, at this moment only Qian Renxue was cheering for him.

Lingxu said, "Senior Qianjun Douluo, I wonder if you can block the next punch."

At this moment, Lingxu leaped high into the air; without even activating his Martial Soul Avatar, he relied on his current body, as Lingxu intended to use another soul bone skill from the Right Arm Bone he had obtained from the system.

The soul bone skill was named Absolute Strength, which tripled the power of Lingxu's right arm.

In other words, Lingxu's attack this time was three times more powerful than before, so Lingxu still told Qianjun Douluo to be careful.

And Qianjun Douluo did not dare to underestimate the enemy again at this moment, upon seeing the soul bone skill on Lingxu's arm.

Qianjun Douluo's expression was grave, because he could tell that this was Lingxu's soul bone skill, and its age was extremely high.

At this moment, a Consecrated one also reminded him, "Is this a ten-thousand-year soul bone?"

A soul bone skill from a ten-thousand-year soul bone—could it not be strong?

The soul rings on Qianjun Douluo's body lit up; he had originally wanted to use his Martial Soul Avatar, but since his opponent had a lower soul power than him and hadn't even used their Martial Soul Avatar yet, it would be a bit lacking if he used his.

Eight soul rings lit up, and Qianjun Douluo directly used one of his strongest soul skills, Thousand Jun Throw.

Facing Lingxu, who had already condensed a massive fist.

When Lingxu's fist and his fist struck that massive Dragon-Coiling Staff.

Only a shattering sound was heard; Qianjun Douluo's Thousand Jun Throw Dragon-Coiling Staff was shattered, and Lingxu's attack did not end, striking toward Qianjun Douluo.

At this moment, Qianjun Douluo had to deploy his defense, using the soul skill Thousand Jun Shield to barely block this attack from Lingxu.

After it ended, Qianjun Douluo looked at the burning incense to the side; it had burned less than a quarter.

Damn it, how could there still be so much time left?

Qianjun Douluo was speechless; facing Lingxu made him feel it was even more difficult than facing a Level 97 Spirit Master.

When Lingxu was at level 90, he could already contend with Bibi Dong; although he couldn't beat her, he wouldn't lose too miserably, and Bibi Dong couldn't do anything to him.

However, after Qing Wu's sacrifice, Lingxu's soul power surged, and he became a Title Douluo.

At this moment, although he was only Level 93, he already possessed the strength of a Level 97 Spirit Master.

So, for the current Lingxu, suppressing Qianjun Douluo was completely without any problems.

However, reaching this point also stirred up Qianjun Douluo's fighting spirit.

Before, he had felt he needed to be careful not to hurt Lingxu, but now his considerations were completely redundant.

With all his soul power circulating, Qianjun Douluo raised his Dragon-Coiling Staff and then activated his Martial Soul Avatar.

Seeing this, Lingxu also began his Martial Soul Avatar, facing Qianjun Douluo's Dragon-Coiling Staff.

This time, Lingxu directly used his ten-thousand-year eighth soul skill, a combined strike of ice and fire, to face Qianjun Douluo head-on.

A ten-thousand-year soul skill; Qianjun Douluo swung his Dragon-Coiling Staff, and the next instant, the Dragon-Coiling Staff seemed to transform into a true dragon to face Lingxu's attack.

In the air, a loud noise seemed to shake the heavens and earth.

And after this, Qianjun Douluo's body fell directly from the air.

At this moment, Qianjun Douluo could only use his Dragon-Coiling Staff to support his body.

When Lingxu slowly landed and withdrew his martial soul.

Qianjun Douluo then said, "Lingxu, we don't need to fight anymore; I concede."

In this life, he had been challenged countless times, and this was his first time conceding; although he was unwilling, the reality was right there.

And at the very moment Qianjun Douluo conceded, Lingxu's third God Trial ended.

He had completed this God Trial almost perfectly, even exceeding the content of this God Trial.

However, this reward made Lingxu frown.

It actually did not increase his soul power; could it be that he could no longer improve once reaching this level?

Lingxu only received one reward: an increase in his soul ring age.

All of his soul ring ages increased by five thousand years!

Upon careful comparison, it seemed that an increase of five thousand years was not bad either.

He took a glance at the system; the day he would have all ten-thousand-year black soul rings still seemed quite far off.

Perhaps he could complete it after finishing the next God Trial.

Just after he took a look, Lingxu's next God Trial mission arrived; it was actually to defeat the Third Elder, Qingluan Douluo, within a time limit of one month.

And after Lingxu received this mission, Qingluan Douluo also received this information, as did Qian Daoliu.

Qingluan Douluo stepped forward and said, "Good, your next opponent is me, Lingxu. When shall we start the battle?"

Lingxu said, "The stipulated time is within one month, so let it be on the thirtieth day!"

With more time available, Lingxu naturally chose to complete it on the final day.

"Good!"

Qianjun Douluo had been defeated, so he would be the one to regain their standing.

Lingxu came before Qianjun Douluo and said, "Senior Qianjun, thank you for the concession. Are you alright?"

"Lingxu, I used my full strength. Truly impressive. With you in the Spirit Hall, the future is promising," Qianjun Douluo said. Although he had lost, he felt no jealousy or dissatisfaction in his heart, only gratification.

"Furthermore, the Third Elder, Qingluan Douluo, is much stronger than I am. If you only have this much power, you won't be able to defeat him," Qianjun Douluo reminded him.

Lingxu smiled and said, "Isn't there still a month? I will definitely strive to improve myself."

"Good!" Qianjun Douluo nodded.

Qian Daoliu watched all of this, feeling quite gratified. At this moment, he could also be considered to have acknowledged that Lingxu had truly grown up.

"Brother Lingxu, you're amazing!" Qian Renxue, who was currently undergoing the baptism, also couldn't help but exclaim.

At this moment, her soul power was far behind Lingxu's soul power level.

She was only at the peak of level 73, while he had already reached level 93 and could even defeat the level 96 Qianjun Douluo.

"I must work hard."

For the final three-plus hours, Qian Renxue practiced with full concentration.

Time passed slowly; the hardworking Qian Renxue would not fall behind.

As she was about to complete this God Trial, her soul power finally rose from the peak of level 73 to level 74; this was also the benefit brought to her by this baptism of Angel Divine Power.
