Chapter 8: This Damnable Competitiveness!

Yu Yuanzhen's mouth was slightly open in awe. He didn't understand what was happening, but he was definitely shocked!

There was quite a commotion here, which soon attracted the attention of a centennial Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

"Roar~"

After a roar, it charged towards the direction of Yu Yuanzhen and Tiankong.

"Grandfather, this is it, I can absorb its soul ring!" Tiankong said, having regained his composure.

The amount of energy The Wheel of Hundred Eyes could absorb was related to his soul power level.

It was roughly the total amount of energy his body could withstand.

Having The Wheel of Hundred Eyes was akin to having a "power bank" during battles, as well as more than double the "soul power" of someone at the same level.

Regrettably, although the energy within The Wheel of Hundred Eyes could be manipulated, it couldn't be used for cultivation.

Tiankong was very satisfied with this advantage and disadvantage.

"Good!"

Yu Yuanzhen agreed without hesitation, confident in Tiankong's ability to absorb the soul ring.

"Roar~"

Yu Yuanzhen also roared furiously. Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—nine soul rings instantly appeared around him.

In the next moment, his figure disappeared, and the dragon-transformed Yu Yuanzhen appeared, complete with wings, now that he had reached the Title Douluo level.

Thunder flickered intermittently. Although it wasn't targeted at Tiankong, unknowingly, two more patterns on The Wheel of Hundred Eyes behind Tiankong lit up.

Tiankong: "…"

Can this just be attributed to the prowess of a Title Douluo? Just the release of his martial soul overflowed soul power that "charged two blocks"! Later, he would need to find a way to release this "electricity," or else it would be dangerous when absorbing the soul ring!

"Bear cub, can you only compete in loudness?"

Tiankong: "This damnable competitiveness!"

Despite his age, Yu Yuanzhen, competing with a young bear in loudness, revealed an eternally youthful heart behind his majestic demeanor!

In just an instant, without even releasing his soul power, Yu Yuanzhen had already arrived in front of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

His dragon claw clenched, and a "simple punch" came crashing down from above, with a loud "bang."

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, capable of matching an ordinary ten-thousand-year soul beast, had no chance to resist and was smashed into the ground, creating a huge pit.

It was fortunate that Yu Yuanzhen held back, or the bear would have been reduced to a mess… definitely not retaining its complete form.

Could a mere centennial soul beast withstand a strike from a ninety-six level Super Douluo?

Its innate talent and species were not weak, but even if it became a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, it likely couldn't defeat the ninety-six level Yu Yuanzhen!

Bear Lord's several hundred thousand years of cultivation were only equivalent to a level ninety-eight Super Douluo, after all. Yu Yuanzhen's strength at level ninety-six, with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon as his martial soul, made dealing with ordinary hundred-thousand-year soul beasts quite effortless.

Against a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, a kind of hundred-thousand-year soul beast, he could win, but it would be a pyrrhic victory!

Tiankong, standing by with a twitching corner of his mouth, watched as Yu Yuanzhen easily subdued the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. His Wheel of Hundred Eyes already had six patterns lit up.

It was already "fully charged"!

Yu Yuanzhen reverted from his dragon form back to his original body, and his soul rings disappeared at that moment.

"Kong, come and finish it off! This bear cub won't last much longer."

Yu Yuanzhen called out to Tiankong.

As for how a soul master should hunt soul beasts and obtain soul rings, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan began teaching their children around the age of five.

It's important to note that only the person who deals the final blow can absorb the soul ring of the slain soul beast.

Tiankong nodded. His martial soul was a weapon-type, specifically a long blade, so Yu Yuanzhen didn't prepare any shorter weapons like daggers for him.

With a grasp of his right hand, a streak of purple lightning flashed, and the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest instantly appeared in Tiankong's hand.

Currently, Tiankong didn't know how to use a scythe; not knowing didn't mean he was stupid! The simplest slashing and hacking—he still knew how to do that.

Worse comes to worst, he could ask his wife for advice!

The techniques of the katana and scythe from Inazuma are all derivatives of the Shadow style, and as a precursor to the Shadow, the Shogun surely knew the scythe technique.

This was something he had to learn; otherwise, holding a divine weapon and hacking away like a barbarian would be a sight too pitiful to behold...

Once the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest appeared, faint traces of purple lightning flickered along its blade.

Holding the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest, Tiankong quickly charged towards the centennial Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen simply smiled and said nothing.

A child, expected to master advanced scythe techniques? Don't be ridiculous!

By this time, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear had already fainted. Tiankong struck it with his blade, and it showed no reaction! This was relatively normal, after all, Tiankong hadn't even broken through the bear's defenses...

Tiankong's face darkened. Holding a divine weapon, yet unable to break through the defense of a mere centennial soul beast, and the most crucial point was that it had no power to resist! The more he thought about it, the more embarrassed and angry he became. In a rush, Tiankong quickly mobilized all the power from The Wheel of Hundred Eyes, concentrating it into the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest, which then shone brightly!

"Die for young master!"

Tiankong raised the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest above his head and slashed down at the centennial Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear again...

This time, without any surprises, the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest cut through the bear's defense like slicing tofu, instantly splitting it in half!

Not only that, but arcs of electricity also spread across the bear's body...

"Hisss, is it that sharp?"

Not only that, its attribute attack was equally terrifying!

Yu Yuanzhen was slightly stunned; the Grass Cutter's Light of the Harvest was sharper than he had imagined!

The defense of this bear cub, he had personally tested just now. Tiankong was able to "easily" break through its defense, making any additional armor-breaking properties unnecessary!

Yu Yuanzhen had previously noticed that "circle" behind Tiankong, lighting up with two additional marks when his martial soul was engaged.

When he burst out with soul power again, the "circle" behind Tiankong instantly lit up completely, all six marks.

It looked similar to a thousand-year soul ring, but was actually unrelated.

When Tiankong first attacked the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, there was no change in the circle behind him. During his second attack, five of the lit marks dimmed, leaving only the original mark still shining.

All of this was observed by Yu Yuanzhen, but he said nothing, asked nothing.

Before long, a soul ring, yellow tinged with a bit of purple, appeared over the corpse of the centennial Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear...
