Chapter 327: Chapter 327: The Second 1,000,000-year Soul Ring
The Deep Sea Demon Roc was flung into the air, and countless islands were crushed to bits.
Yang Xiaotian was shaken violently, smashing through one island peak after another.
Although he had already witnessed the great battle between the Medicine Cauldron and the Abyssal Master, the sight still left Yang Xiaotian utterly stunned.
With a single move, the force stirred up countless miles of the sea area, and countless islands were destroyed. Such power was truly magnificent.
After being flung away again, the Deep Sea Demon Roc let out a skyward howl that transformed into a terrifying sonic force, like a super storm, bludgeoning the Medicine Cauldron over and over.
The frightful sonic force kept engulfing the Medicine Cauldron wave after wave.
Wherever the sonic force passed, the sea surface was completely leveled.
Boom Boom Boom!
A series of dense and heavy strikes resounded like thunderous drums, leaving all the mighty beings within the Soul Sea dazed and confused.
However, despite the terrifying power of the Deep Sea Demon Roc’s howls, it still could not break the golden light column of the Medicine Cauldron.
The Medicine Cauldron readied itself once more and launched an attack at the Deep Sea Demon Roc again. It didn’t display any Divine Skills; every strike was pure force.
With strength that could shake Heaven and Earth, it bombarded the Deep Sea Demon Roc time and again.
The Deep Sea Demon Roc’s body was too large, and although it was also fast, it was much slower compared to the Medicine Cauldron, thus it couldn’t avoid the Medicine Cauldron’s assault.
Blood dyed the Soul Sea red.
What was once a black sea had turned a bloody red.
Looking at the blood reddening the Soul Sea, Yang Xiaotian felt a twinge of pain; this was the beast blood of a Deep Sea Demon Roc that had lived for more than a million years, every drop was precious.
The battle raged on.
What the Medicine Cauldron hadn’t expected was that although the Deep Sea Demon Roc wasn’t as ancient as the Abyssal Master, its strength in the Soul Sea was not much weaker, and this Demon Roc Beast was not just a million but one and a half million years old.
The Deep Sea Demon Roc’s defense was not inferior to that of the Abyssal Master; its entire Beast Skin was extremely smooth, repelling a large part of the force when attacked.
Therefore, killing the Deep Sea Demon Roc was as difficult as killing the Abyssal Master.
Fortunately, there was an ample amount of Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water. It sustained the Medicine Cauldron with a constant supply of power.
Yang Xiaotian did his utmost to closely watch the battle between the Medicine Cauldron and the Deep Sea Demon Roc.
In the continuing fight, finally, the Deep Sea Demon Roc began to falter.
Although its defense was strong, the Medicine Cauldron focused its attacks on its head, which was the weakest point.
The head of the Deep Sea Demon Roc was left a bloody, unrecognizable mess from the Medicine Cauldron’s bombardment.
A horrific cavern had been blasted into its head.
Boom!
At last, after a particularly powerful strike from the Medicine Cauldron, the Deep Sea Demon Roc was flung deep into the Soul Sea, struggling to rise but no longer able to muster the strength.
Seeing this, the Medicine Cauldron breathed a sigh of relief, but it struck down once again, burying the Deep Sea Demon Roc deep within the Soul Sea.
Watching the Deep Sea Demon Roc gasping for life, with no strength left to retaliate, Yang Xiaotian flew towards it.
“The Beast Soul of the Deep Sea Demon Roc has been around for one and a half million years. While it may not compare to the Abyssal Master, you must still be extremely careful when you absorb it,” said the Medicine Cauldron, returning to Yang Xiaotian’s side.
Yang Xiaotian nodded.
Thinking back to the non-human agony he endured while absorbing the Abyssal Master’s Beast Soul, he took a deep breath and positioned himself above the head of the Deep Sea Demon Roc.
At that moment, a massive black light sphere burst out from within the Demon Roc’s head.
Seeing this huge black orb, Yang Xiaotian of course knew what it was. He quickly sat down cross-legged and summoned his Black Tortoise Martial Soul.
The Black Tortoise Martial Soul opened its enormous mouth and began to swallow the Deep Sea Demon Roc’s Beast Soul.
Instantly, the overwhelming energy of the Demon Roc Beast Soul surged into the Black Tortoise Martial Soul like the wild waves of the Soul Sea.
The Black Tortoise Martial Soul’s radiance surged incessantly.
The sensation of pain came again.
Yang Xiaotian quickly circulated the Primordial Dragon Art, speeding up the absorption by the Black Tortoise Martial Soul, slightly easing the pain. However, under the frenzied infusion of energy from the Deep Sea Demon Roc Beast Soul, the Black Tortoise Martial Soul continued to swell.
The feeling of his soul being torn apart returned, growing more and more intense, so much so that Yang Xiaotian nearly lost consciousness.
But just as the Black Tortoise Martial Soul was continuously expanded, the mysterious patterns on its shell began to flicker with light. With each flicker, the energy from the Deep Sea Demon Roc Beast Soul eased.
That inhuman sensation of pain also momentarily eased.
No matter how wildly the energy of the Deep Sea Demon Roc Beast Soul was infused, the Black Tortoise Martial Soul did not show any cracks, even after expanding tenfold, twentyfold!
It did not burst.
The defensive toughness of the Black Tortoise Martial Soul’s entire body was beyond imagination.
The mysterious patterns on the turtle shell surged with light. With each surge, a mysterious force flowed to every corner of the Black Tortoise’s body, strengthening its defenses and making them even more robust.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaotian’s heart relaxed a bit. He clenched his teeth and persisted in circulating the Primordial Dragon Art over and over.
Finally, the massive Demon Roc Beast Soul, vast as the sea, began to shrink.
With each contraction, the pain in Yang Xiaotian’s soul lightened.
Meanwhile, the Black Tortoise Martial Soul radiated even more intensely, with black cold air roaring around it, encasing everything in the vicinity of the Soul Sea in a layer of black ice.
The Demon Roc Beast Soul continued to shrink.
The previously expanded Black Tortoise Martial Soul finally began to slowly recover.
At last, around the Black Tortoise Martial Soul, a circle of light appeared, the Soul Ring.
Just like the Black Dragon Martial Spirit’s Soul Ring, it was also a golden-red color.
And beside the circle, another faint golden-red light circle materialized.
The Demon Roc Beast Soul was one million and five hundred thousand years old, hence the second golden-red circle was very faint.
As the Soul Ring of the Black Tortoise Martial Soul condensed, a violent divine presence rampaged and surged wildly.
This divine presence, which belonged to the Deep Sea Demon Roc itself, made all the Soul Beasts in the Soul Sea tremble and prostrate in fear and panic.
In the end, the shrinking Demon Roc Beast Soul turned into a beam of light and merged with the Black Tortoise Martial Soul.
With that, the second Soul Ring was finally condensed!
The Black Tortoise Martial Soul and the Black Dragon Martial Spirit coiled above Yang Xiaotian’s head, both the over-a-million-year Soul Rings shining with layers of golden-red light, illuminating vast areas of the deep sea within the Soul Sea.
Above in the high skies, the winds and clouds changed.
Thunder roared and lightning flashed.
As if heralding the birth of two over-a-million-year Soul Rings in the Martial Soul World!
The birth of two over-a-million-year Soul Rings caused Heaven and Earth to change color.
Throughout the countless years of the Martial Soul World’s history, no one had ever condensed two over-a-million-year Soul Rings, and now, Yang Xiaotian had broken the ancient legends of the Martial Soul World, creating this unbelievable Divine Miracle.
Under the illumination of the two great Soul Rings, Yang Xiaotian’s body seemed to be enveloped in layers of golden-red light as well.
And Yang Xiaotian’s realm also broke through smoothly to the second tier of Martial Emperor.
Feeling the immense power bestowed by the two great Soul Rings, Yang Xiaotian threw a punch that sent a gold and red punch force tearing through layer after layer of the sea surface, reaching the very end of the sea.
It took a long time for Yang Xiaotian to retract the two great Martial Souls back into his body.
The gold and red radiance enveloping the deep sea of the Soul Sea disappeared.
Only then did Heaven and Earth gradually return to normal.
