The Seven Kill Sword hovered beside Chen Xin. Staring at the familiar yet alien old partner, a trace of gravity flashed in his eyes.
He could sense that the instant that Domain had unfolded, even his Seven Kill Sword Intent had twisted for a moment.
That feeling of space folding was simply disgusting.
Space-attribute—truly the most disgusting attribute in this World!
"Cut the nonsense."
Chen Xin glared at Gu Rong's left leg and snorted coldly.
"Old Bones, that Spirit Bone of yours is an extremely rare space-attribute hundred thousand year spirit bone."
"Spill it—what skill did it give?"
"Why do I sense a sharpness on you that even I find dangerous?"
When the Spirit Bone skill was mentioned, the smile on Gu Rong's face brightened, even turning a bit sinister.
"Heh-heh, Old Sword Man, you're right to be afraid."
"This bone granted me two divine skills that completely changed my fighting style."
"The first is called [Space • Forced Banishment]!"
Gu Rong explained: "It's a powerful control-plus-attack skill."
"I can lock onto a target and forcibly throw it into an interdimensional spatial storm."
"Inside, endless spatial blades slice everything."
"If it's a Titled Douluo below rank 95, once inside, forget about getting out—shredded to pieces."
"Even at rank 98, if I manage to trick you in for a few seconds, you'll come out skinned!"
Chen Xin's eyelid twitched, but he stayed stubborn. "Your skill sounds strong, but I can already spot a big weakness, right?"
"Getting someone forcibly banished can't be easy."
Gu Rong snorted. "Exactly, but no one knows I have this Spirit Bone skill. Save it for a crucial moment and it'll still work like a charm—heh-heh-heh!"
As he spoke, a sly grin crept across his face.
Combined with his newly acquired Domain, the success rate felt pretty high.
"Uncle Gu, what about the second one?" Ning Fengzhi leaned in, equally curious.
Gu Rong chuckled, his gaze turning razor-sharp, even murderous.
"The second is called [Dimension • Bone Dragon Annihilation Drill]!"
"I can condense all my spirit power, defense, and spatial force into a single point and turn myself into an unstoppable Bone Dragon Drill!"
"Its terror lies in ultra-long-range spatial-jump attacks!"
"Ignores physical defense! Ignores energy shields! Pierces straight through space!"
"Hiss—!!"
Both Chen Xin and Ning Fengzhi gasped.
Ignore defense?
That's seriously broken!
Even Chen Xin's Seven Kill Sword can't ignore defense completely!
What kind of defense-system Spirit Master is this?
He's clearly a top-tier spatial assassin with insane penetration!
"Old Bones…"
Chen Xin stared at Gu Rong, eyes complicated, as if looking at a monster.
"You've changed."
"You're no longer that defense-system guy who used spatial abilities for protection."
"This skill is just dirty!"
Gu Rong laughed proudly:
"All's fair in war!"
"With these tricks, even against those Worship Hall guys from Spirit Hall—except Qian Daoliu—I'm confident I can run circles around them!"
"So, Old Sword Man, I'm curious how strong you are now. How about a spar?"
Having gained the rewards, Gu Rong was acting unbearably smug.
After being suppressed by Chen Xin for so long, it was finally his turn to be on the offensive!
Chen Xin saw through it at once and snorted, "Gloat while you can. Once I make the list, let's see how proud you'll be!"
...Canglan Academy.
Lin Yuan was surprised that Gu Rong had condensed the rare spatial soul core—though it had been bestowed by the heavenly dao.
A spatial soul core—he had one too.
No, rather than calling it a spatial soul core, his was a space-time soul core.
He possessed three soul cores in total.
One was the ultimate Sword Intent soul core based on the xuanyuan sword, focused on slaughter.
One was the spirit soul core based on the Immortal Wheel Eye, focused on control and illusion.
The last was the space-time soul core he had condensed when breaking through from rank 98 to rank 99, the limit Douluo!
This soul core involved not only space but also the far more mysterious law of time!
Compared with Gu Rong's pure spatial soul core, Lin Yuan's space-time soul core was on an entirely different level.
Seeing her Grandpa Gu receive such amazing rewards, Ning Rongrong jumped up excitedly.
"Teacher, look! Grandpa Gu's rewards are incredible!"
"spirit power boost, a hundred thousand year spirit bone, and that spatial soul core!"
"Grandpa Gu will be super powerful from now on!"
While happy for her Grandpa Gu, Ning Rongrong couldn't hide a trace of envy.
That was a hundred thousand year spirit bone!
She still didn't have one.
Although the eighty-thousand-year Spirit Bone she had could grow to a hundred thousand years, it wasn't there yet.
Across the continent, seeing Gu Rong on the list—and knowing Chen Xin would follow—everyone exclaimed that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was about to soar!
Meanwhile, the heavenly screen gave them little time to breathe.
Golden text flickered again before everyone's eyes.

A violent dark-red pillar of light shot skyward, punching straight through the hall's dome!
At its center stood Demon Subduing Douluo, clutching a gigantic rod, roaring at the sky!
"Ahhh!!!"
As the heavenly dao golden light poured in, his spirit power skyrocketed!
