Chapter 43 - Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Bone Skills

"Disciple, you really know how to cause trouble for me. Now you've stirred up such a thing. In other words, the evidence of Yan Wei's collusion with the Hall of Martial Souls is now conclusive? Di'azi's matter was also indeed done by Yan Wei. Now you've brought this little girl to me, are you hoping I'll help you resolve Yan Wei and avenge yourselves?"

It had to be said that the information was indeed substantial. Meng Qianji had been following Lordia for so many days and hadn't discovered any clues, but his disciple had already resolved everything.

"Yanling Auction House colluding with the Hall of Martial Souls shows they're plotting something. Now that we've exchanged the soul bones, their plan is half-destroyed. The other half is that we still don't know what they intend to do with the soul bones in the auction."

"You don't need to worry about that. I'll find out. But your current situation is very bad. Yan Wei has already begun to suspect you and has set a very obvious trap for you, and you actually jumped into it. I really don't know whether to say you're smart or stupid."

"I must participate in the Hall of Martial Souls Selection Tournament. This is my only chance to escape suspicion and prove my innocence!"

Ming Tian clenched his fists, saying with a firm attitude, seemingly very confident.

"But Yan Wei will definitely do something, trying to use your participation in the selection to get rid of you. And don't think that the selection within the Hall of Martial Souls in Tianling City is only for people within Tianling City. It's aimed at people in this entire area. At that time, some experienced wild soul masters, sect soul masters, and even people from Star Luo will come to participate in the selection. It's not as simple as Zhan Ni and the others within Tianling City. There are many hidden geniuses and monsters in this world."

"I'm not afraid! Yan Wei wants me to die in the selection, and I won't let him have his way!"

"Good disciple, you have ambition. I'll help you break through the encirclement then. If I calculate correctly, Old Jack, the Village Chief, should also be arriving in Qiluo City."

"Then, little girl, are you sure? Making a decision with your family? Completely cutting off ties with Yan Wei and your brother, truly wanting to avenge your mother and make your father and brother pay the price?"

Meng Qianji looked at Yan Qingwan. The aura emanating from Yan Qingwan was no longer something a six-year-old girl should possess. Cold, aloof, and expressionless.

"Yes, I will never forgive my father for killing my mother. I will make him pay the price!"

"Ara, ara, such a heavy sense of resentment and hatred at such a young age. Truly lacking the innocence a child your age should have."

"You just need to tell me if you'll help me. If you won't, it's okay. I'll solve it myself, even if it takes some time."

Yan Qingwan's expression remained hateful, constantly clenching her fists, slightly enduring.

"In a way, your mother was from the royal family of the Tiandou Empire, and my elder brother, Meng Shenji, also defected to the Tiandou royal family. Even if it's for my brother's future, I will do my best."

Meng Qianji didn't make any promises, but he essentially agreed to Yan Qingwan. Yan Qingwan loosened her grip, her expression softening, and she lowered her head, giving a slight bow.

"Thank you."

"Alright, do you two have anything else?"

"Yes! Master, I've recovered my mother's soul bone. Now my soul power has risen to around level thirty-seven. Since this selection is so dangerous, relying solely on my Three-Tailed Scorpion's first soul skill and that strange skill similar to a martial soul fusion skill, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect myself. If necessary, I might have to use the soul bone's skills, after all, the matter of multiple martial souls cannot be exposed. I want to understand my current strength and the abilities my soul bone grants me."

After Ming Tian said this, Meng Qianji nodded and said:

"Makes sense. You do need to practice. Come to think of it, you're really enviable, having a soul bone so quickly, and it's still a ten-thousand-year soul bone."

Meng Qianji said with some teasing.

"No, if possible, I never want this soul bone."

Ming Tian said with some despondency.

"Ah, sorry, I misspoke."

"It's alright, Master, can you train with me?"

"No problem, of course, I can. It's a master's responsibility to test his disciple, and I like to torment my disciples. You must have quite a few soul skills in total, right? I won't hold back."

"Naturally, there's no need."

"But for fairness, I won't use a domain, otherwise, activating a domain in my domain is a bit unfair."

Meng Qianji said, concentrating his soul power. Two yellow, two purple, and four black, eight soul rings rose from under his feet in turn, surrounding him, and he lifted his feet to activate his soul power, lifting him slightly off the ground.

A purplish-black large shadow flashed from behind Meng Qianji, and then a beast similar to a leopard cat emerged from Meng Qianji's shadow.

The beast was dark purple all over, its ears sharply erect, and its eyes were light blue, similar to a misty blue color. A tail swayed behind it, with the end of the tail seeming to be tied to something similar to a spiked ball.

"Disciple, let me formally introduce your master's martial soul, the Dream Demon, belonging to the three systems of spirit, dream, and ability, mainly control."

Meng Qianji smiled, his hand touching the Dream Demon's head. The Dream Demon was by his side, like a magnified cat. It looked a bit cute.

"Alright, Master, I'm coming!"

Ming Tian stomped his foot, and his hands instantly transformed into scorpion claws, two scorpion claws slashing towards Meng Qianji.

Meng Qianji stood still, a swirling, bizarre black hole vortex appearing in front of him. The black hole vortex expanded, swallowing Ming Tian's scorpion claws.

"This is my third soul skill, Dream Vortex, which can connect to a different dimension, sending energy-based attacks to another space."

"Energy attacks are ineffective, do you want to continue?"

"Then try this!"

With that, Ming Tian switched to the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger martial soul, and the Evil God's Tail lashed out, hooking towards Meng Qianji's neck. The speed was extremely fast, and with this soul skill, Ming Tian often achieved surprise victories.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you're really ruthless, but it's no use."

Meng Qianji still didn't move. Numerous black, rubber-like hands emerged from the shadow on the ground, grabbing at the Evil God's Tail.

The Evil God's Tail hadn't even gotten close before it was grabbed by countless shadow-shaped hands, unable to advance an inch.

"This is my first soul skill, Dream Demon's Entanglement, also known as Dream Entanglement, Shadow Entanglement. As long as there's a shadow, I can summon countless shadow hands from the shadow. These arms are elastic, can stretch, and have toughness, and can be released at any time, which is very practical. Sometimes, soul rings don't have to be extremely powerful in terms of their age. Some thousand-year and hundred-year soul skills can also be comparable to ten-thousand-year soul skills in terms of their practicality."

"This is the first lesson I'm giving you."

"Next, it's my turn to attack."

Meng Qianji said, and the Dream Demon passed by Meng Qianji, its speed faster than some agile attack soul beasts. Meng Qianji's second soul ring shone.

The Dream Demon behind Ming Tian then raised its claws and slashed out four pitch-black claw shadows, attacking Ming Tian. Ming Tian quickly used his first soul skill, Evil God Bodyguard, to dodge this attack.

"No, no, no, this soul skill isn't that simple."

Meng Qianji smiled, and the claw attack that passed through Ming Tian's virtualized body didn't directly land in empty space but stopped in mid-air. When the Evil God Bodyguard was activated, the claw attack that stopped in mid-air exploded and broke open, and Ming Tian was pushed back by the impact.

"Ming Tian!"

Yan Qingwan, who was watching the battle from the side, cried out in great anxiety upon seeing Ming Tian injured.

"It's okay, this injury won't kill him."

Sure enough, Ming Tian stood up again after being pushed back, only his clothes were somewhat damaged.

"Disciple, how is it?"

"Impressive! What is this soul skill, Master?"

"Second soul skill, Dream Shatter, the Dream Demon launches the attack, then detonates."

"Indeed impressive, then try this!"

Ming Tian said, a purple soul ring surrounding himself, his eyes turning yellow, looking towards Meng Qianji.

It was the Heavenly Void Power Demon Bull martial soul's first soul skill, Heavenly Void Eye!

This look was no small matter. Meng Qianji's eyes turned pale purple, and the Heavenly Void Eye didn't control Meng Qianji, but instead, the mental attack rebounded into Ming Tian's mind. Ming Tian was bleeding from his seven orifices due to the backlash, and he retreated again, nearly losing his balance.

"Disciple, are you stupid? Didn't your master say it? I mainly control mental power. You're using your weak mental power to launch a mental attack, won't you be backlashed? My fifth soul skill, Dream Hell, can make the opponent fall into a painful illusion, suffering mental torture to death, but I won't use it on you."

"You're still far from…"

Before Meng Qianji could finish speaking, dark black Blue Silver Grass suddenly sprang up from under his feet, coiling upwards towards him. His instinctual reaction made him quickly raise his body and retreat, and the Dream Demon returned to unleash Dream Shatter to break the dark black Blue Silver Grass.

Meng Qianji looked towards Ming Tian, and saw that Ming Tian's left arm was emitting dark purple light. A circle of pale blue light spread out from Ming Tian, enveloping everything around him, and everything turned very pale blue. Around Ming Tian, countless dark black Blue Silver Grass grew wildly, devouring everything they could devour. Above Ming Tian's head, an ice-blue vortex appeared, and all energy surged towards it. Ming Tian felt that the soul power he had consumed was instantly restored.

"Domain-type soul skill?!"

Meng Qianji also exclaimed.

This was the ten-thousand-year Dark Blue Silver left arm bone's wide-range domain-type soul skill, which Ming Tian's mother, You Huamo, had once used, the Blue Silver Soul Devouring Abyss!

Blue Silver Soul Devouring Abyss, generating Dark Blue Silver Grass to devour everything around it, devouring soul power, devouring martial souls, devouring age, devouring life force and mental power, and everything. The ultimate secret, Ten Thousand Souls Punish, unleashing attacks with everything devoured!

Feeling that the dark blue soul-devouring light released by the Blue Silver Soul Devouring Abyss subtly devoured everything, even his own soul power was subtly draining away. He was afraid that the longer he stayed in this light, the more he would be subtly drained and absorbed. Meng Qianji's face showed a solemn expression for the first time.

Ten-thousand-year soul bone skills, indeed domineering!

Ming Tian felt this situation, and a joy surged in his heart, and he had a bit more confidence and said:

"Master, take a look at my ten-thousand-year soul bone's second skill, Blue Silver Body, Overlord Spear Strike!!"

His left arm shone again, and Ming Tian's entire body strangely transformed into a body composed of Blue Silver Grass. His left arm turned into a huge Blue Silver Grass, and the Blue Silver Grass then turned into a blue-black spear, instantly stabbing towards Meng Qianji.

His right arm also turned into growing Blue Silver Grass, and the Blue Silver Grass then twisted into a dark blue longsword, slashing towards Meng Qianji.

"Disciple, this skill is outrageous!"

Meng Qianji shouted, his left arm also shining.

"Master also has soul bones, although I only have one, but my left arm bone is not inferior to yours!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Meng Qianji raised his left arm, his left arm turned black, becoming a sickle shape, and slashed out countless blades, cutting off the attacking Blue Silver Grass.
