"Azure Annihilation Thunder!"
With a thought, Tuoba Yan felt the blood-red soul ring beneath his feet glow.
In an instant, even though there was nothing behind Tuoba Yan, everyone saw a blue ox python appear behind him.
At this moment, lightning flashed in Tuoba Yan's golden eyes.
At the same time, the illusory image of the Azure Bull Python behind Tuoba Yan released a bolt of lightning.
The lightning bolt was a different color than before; it was golden.
Lightning bolted overhead, but no one was hit by the soul skill; however, everyone's spirits were lifted.
The soul skill didn't land on them, but it affected their minds with the energy waves contained in the lightning. At the same time, everyone felt a strange dulling of their consciousness.
They heard Tuoba Yan's voice.
"Because it is a soul ring with a lifespan of 100,000 years, my soul skill has two effects. It combines the Azure Annihilation Thunder and Azure Slowing Claw of the Azure Bull Python."
"Soul skills can directly strike the soul of another, and also inflict a slowing effect!"
"Alright, now it's time to get the second spirit ring!"
Tuoba Yan turned his gaze back to the Lake of Life.
Hu Liena sighed enviously, "I really envy you and Teacher, both of you have twin martial souls and spirit rings. After becoming a Title Douluo, you can quickly increase your spirit power level by continuing to acquire spirit rings. With a few more spirit rings, you'll definitely be able to break through to level ninety-nine!"
"That's a must," Tuoba Yan said with a smile.
For Soul Masters with twin Martial Souls, the process of advancing their Soul Power is commonly referred to as "cheating".
In fact, Tuoba Yan didn't like the term "cheating".
There are no cheat codes in this world, only lucky people.
He, Tuoba Yan, like Bibi Dong and Tang San, is a Soul Master with twin martial souls.
Is this what you call cheating?
That's not called that.
Tuoba Yan believed this was their own strength. How could it be considered cheating?
This kind of thinking is problematic in itself.
A person may be born into poverty, while a small percentage may be born into wealth or officialdom. The former may struggle their entire life, yet still only reach the level of the latter. The latter, however, are born with everything the former could achieve in a lifetime of struggle.
Could this also be considered cheating?
If Tuoba Yan's possession of twin martial souls is considered cheating, then Tuoba Yan believes that people born into official or wealthy families are either cheating or having a cheat code from birth.
Some people say that the world is fair?
Tuoba Yan felt that the world was fair. In some ways, however, he felt that the world was not fair.
On the topic of "having a cheat code," some people are born healthy, while others are born with disabilities, such as deafness, muteness, or extra fingers. For those born with disabilities, does that mean that even healthy people have a cheat code?
However, almost all normal people, when they encounter someone who is slightly better than them in some aspects, will accuse that the other person of cheating.
This is clearly incorrect.
Even suppress it!
Tuoba Yan has never liked the term "cheating".
When a fool meets a wise person, it's like having a cheat code for the fool.
When a poor person meets a rich person, it's like a cheat code for the poor person.
When those in power encounter ordinary people, for ordinary people, being able to eat the government's food is like having a cheat code.
If some people insist on saying that Tuoba Yan had a cheat code, then being born with a government job, a job that many people would kill for, is that also considered having a cheat code?
There are no such things as cheating.
He's just someone who's a bit luckier and better than others in some way.
Heaven abhors fullness, and humanity abhors perfection.
Some people are only slightly better in certain areas, but not so good in others.
Is this also cheating?
The world is vast, and there are all sorts of people.
In his previous life, Tuoba Yan liked to buy lottery tickets, hoping for a better future and indulging in a fantasy. However, some people mistakenly believed that he was a fortune teller and could empty the prize pool.
In short, Tuoba Yan had no awareness of cheating or using cheat codes. That's a mindset only someone with a problem would have.
Isn't that so?
Even if someone has a talent in a certain area, don't those who think others are cheating or using cheat codes also realize that they have their own talents?
Tuoba Yan is a nine-ring Title Douluo. His first martial soul already has nine spirit rings, and his second martial soul requires further cultivation to continuously acquire nine spirit rings.
He has now obtained a spirit ring. He feels his spirit power level has improved, rising from the early stage of level 98 to the mid-to-late stage of level 98. With at most two more spirit rings, he is confident that he can break through to level 99 and become a Limit Douluo.
Limit Douluo is not what Tuoba Yan is pursuing.
Tuoba Yan's inner pursuit is to raise his soul power to the ninety-ninth level of perfection, and see if he will encounter the bottleneck.
Some people envy Tuoba Yan for being born with divine power, as the energy attribute within his body is not soul power but divine power.
Tuoba Yan was anxious about whether he could break through the ninety-ninth level of the bottleneck.
It should be noted that because he possesses divine power, other deities cannot grant him normal assessments. They can only grant him the highest level of Red-grade Seventh Trial.
Without the Golden Nine Trials, Tuoba Yan didn't know what other way he could obtain the Golden Nine Trials like an ordinary person and advance to become a god, besides searching for the Dragon Ball to obtain the Dragon God's divine test.
"Silver Dragon King, come out!"
Tuoba Yan shouted towards the Lake of Life once again.
The Lake of Life is quiet.
Both Daming and Erming, who guarded the Lake of Life, were killed by Tuoba Yan.
As far as Tuoba Yan knew, there were several other powerful soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, all of which were at the terrifying age of 100,000 years.
The surface of the Lake of Life remained completely still.
"Aren't you coming out?" Tuoba Yan stepped into the air and walked to the sky above the Lake of Life.
After becoming a Title Douluo, especially after his Soul Power level reached level 98, Tuoba Yan was able to fly through the air.
He slowly raised his hand, without using any spell power, and punched the Lake of Life below.
"Overlord Wave-Shattering Fist!"
"boom!"
The Overlord's Fist imprint landed on the lake surface, causing towering waves to surge.
"Overlord Wave-Shattering Fist!"
"boom!"
The Overlord Fist imprint landed on the lake surface once again, causing towering waves to surge once more.
"Overlord Wave-Shattering Fist!"
"Overlord Wave-Shattering Fist!"
"Overlord Wave-Shattering Fist!"
...
Tuoba Yan relentlessly pounded the Lake of Life below with punch after punch from a distance.
Before the waves on the lake had subsided, they were pounded even higher by the subsequent fist imprints.
Punch after punch, wave after wave.
The lake of life is very deep, and you can already vaguely see the shadow of the lake bottom.
"stop!"
A hoarse voice came from the bottom of the pool.
Immediately afterwards, the lakebed began to shake violently. A crack appeared in the lakebed.
"Boom!"
As the lakebed continued to tremble, the cracks grew longer and wider.
A beam of silver energy burst forth from the bottom of the lake, its light illuminating most of the Lake of Life in silver hues.
Looking down at the changes at the bottom of the lake, Tuoba Yan murmured, "Finally, he's decided to come out!"
