Chapter 32: Netherworld White Tiger

Zhu Zhuqing's entire body was covered with a faint black light; her figure was flickering, and she seemed to have become transparent.

The next moment, Zhu Zhuqing's body, like a swallow flying into its nest, under the pull of Qi, lunged into Dai Xiyu's White Tiger martial soul.

Within the martial soul's illusion, Dai Xiyu and Zhu Zhuqing held each other tightly, feeling each other's heartbeat and breath.

At this moment, the two martial soul illusions had completely merged into one, gradually solidifying.

Martial soul fusion skill—Netherworld White Tiger!

"Roar!!"

The huge tiger's roar surged through the forest.

Several nearby wandering spirit beasts were shaken into howling and fled on their legs.

At this moment, Dai Xiyu could feel that the control of the Netherworld White Tiger was entirely in his hands.

All control was fully in his hands; Zhu Zhuqing could only watch.

Unless Dai Xiyu voluntarily handed over the authority to Zhu Zhuqing, then she could take control.

This is understandable, given the huge gap in their strength; when performing the martial soul fusion skill, Dai Xiyu would definitely occupy the dominant position.

After the martial soul fusion, Dai Xiyu felt the soul power within the Netherworld White Tiger and couldn't help but smile.

Compared to his original soul power, after the martial soul fusion the total soul power had actually doubled.

You should know, Zhu Zhuqing's total soul power isn't even one-tenth of Dai Xiyu's.

Being able to produce a total soul power that is twice Dai Xiyu's is entirely due to the wondrous reaction from their martial soul fusion.

It's unknown how long this first successful martial soul fusion can last.

Thus, Dai Xiyu didn't waste time; he immediately mobilized soul power, controlling the Netherworld White Tiger to advance and attack.

"Whoosh!"

The Netherworld White Tiger's movement stirred up gusts of howling wind, and its huge claw slammed directly onto the tree trunk not far ahead.

Accompanied by a crisp crack, the large tree that the two could encircle was struck, sending wood chips flying.

He raised his left claw again and struck the same spot where the gap had just formed.

"Crack!"

The sound of breaking rang out; the huge tree could no longer support itself and slowly toppled over.

The massive trunk slid through the gap between the two trees, hit the ground, and emitted a dull impact sound.

"Boom!"

The huge tree that the two could encircle was snapped cleanly by those two claws.

If it had struck a person, the consequences would be easy to imagine.

After testing the power of the Netherworld White Tiger, Dai Xiyu's mind flashed with inspiration; he immediately switched martial souls within his body.

Second martial soul, Copy Wheel Eye, activate!

Instantly, the Netherworld White Tiger, over two meters tall, had its pupils turn blood-red.

Three tomoe were evenly arranged around the pupils.

In Dai Xiyu's vision, a faint red hue instantly overlay everything.

Everything around him, even the leaves blown by the wind, became slow.

This discovery made Dai Xiyu feel delighted.

"Even while switching to other martial souls in the fused state, the Netherworld White Tiger can still be maintained."

"Moreover, the Copy Wheel Eye can also be fused into the Netherworld White Tiger. That way, even if Davis breaks through to level thirty, their Netherworld White Tiger will have no chance."

Just thinking this, Dai Xiyu felt that the state of the Netherworld White Tiger was somewhat unstable.

For a first fusion, being able to last this long is already quite good.

The moment their hearts stirred, the martial soul fusion state began to dissolve.

The huge Netherworld White Tiger vanished quickly, revealing the forms of Dai Xiyu and Zhu Zhuqing.

After dispelling the Netherworld White Tiger, Zhu Zhuqing's spirits were a bit listless, and her soul power was nearly exhausted.

Fortunately, the martial soul fusion didn't last long, so Zhu Zhuqing only felt somewhat fatigued, with no serious harm.

At this moment, her expression was very excited; she happily said, "We finally succeeded!"

As the leader, Dai Xiyu's physical quality is outrageously strong, so his condition is far better than Zhu Zhuqing's.

Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's voice, Dai Xiyu also smiled and said:

"This is also thanks to our relationship being close enough, with mutual trust that makes no distinction between us as the foundation, which allows us to create miracles."

Hearing Dai Xiyu say that, Zhu Zhuqing felt a bit shy, her cheeks slightly red.

She walked up to Dai Xiyu, lowered her head, and pressed against his solid chest.

Zhu Zhuqing's nature is actually very aloof.

Yet she actually loves hearing Dai Xiyu say these words; the shyness in her heart also makes her quite enamored.

At that moment, the special prompt in the upper left of Dai Xiyu's view refreshed again.

"【Gain from Zhu Zhuqing's fortune +1,000,000】"

Seeing this prompt, Dai Xiyu's smile grew wider.

Saying sweet nothings costs nothing and is likely to harvest fortune—why not?

However, Dai Xiyu also knows that haste makes waste, so he deliberately controls the frequency.

If he said it every day, all the time, it would instead seem oily and wouldn't have that effect.

After lingering a while in the forest, the two walked out together and boarded the returning carriage.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't ask about the authority, because she also knew her strength was insufficient.

Dai Xiyu is a Soul Elder powerhouse, over twenty levels higher than her; it's already fortunate that the martial soul fusion succeeded.

Dai Xiyu's combat experience is also much higher than hers, and Zhu Zhuqing is also very willing to let Dai Xiyu take full charge.

Zhu Zhuqing also felt the immense soul power within the Netherworld White Tiger.

Thus, Zhu Zhuqing longed for power even more.

She couldn't help but fantasize: if her soul power caught up to Dai Xiyu's, how great would the power of the Netherworld White Tiger become……

After returning to the Duke's Mansion, at Dai Xiyu's indication, neither of them made a fuss.

Since we've decided to keep a low profile, let's stay low-key to the end.

In the evening, the two had dinner as usual and practiced dual cultivation; the next day they went again to Starlight Forest to train their Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

After another day of training, the Martial Soul Fusion Technique became more proficient.

By the time they returned to the mansion in the evening, the duration they could sustain had already reached one minute.

With the aid of the Writing Wheel Eye, one minute was already enough to decide the outcome.

The night passed in silence, and before they knew it, the next day arrived.

Just that morning, a long procession of carriages entered Star Luo City from outside in single file.

The citizens of Star Luo City all voluntarily made way, watching the luxurious carriage convoy pass before their eyes.

They all knew that the carriages in this convoy were filled entirely with people from the Star Luo Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy.

Nine-tenths of them were nobles and children of high officials.

The remaining one-tenth were also people of extraordinary talent, with limitless futures.

The carriages marched mightily all the way; after reaching the inner city, carriages began to peel off the procession one by one, heading toward their respective mansions.

One of the most luxurious carriages among them traveled at the front from start to finish.

It did not stop until it reached the gate of the Imperial Palace.
