Capítulo 178: 175, I've been elegant all my life, can't I get a little rough now? [Second Update]_1
"Old Bones, you alright?"
Chen Xin glanced at the cracked ground around him, deeming the scene nothing short of "catastrophic."
Under normal circumstances, Gu Rong's Martial Soul wouldn't just be shattered, it could have been annihilated into dross.
After all, Chen Xin couldn't even dream of an attack of that magnitude, and it also indirectly proved that Senior Lin Yi had greatly held back when he taught Bear Lord a lesson before...
The Steel Fire Dragon shook off the dust from its body and looked down at Chen Xin beside it, speaking with Gu Rong's voice:
"I'm completely fine, this old skeleton is indeed tough as nails, just expended a bit too much Soul Power, that's all..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xin broke into laughter, genuinely happy for his old friend's improvement.
Soon enough, Gu Rong's figure reappeared, and as the Martial Soul True Body was deactivated, the massive Steel Fire Dragon vanished as well.
Perhaps due to the severe exhaustion of soul power, coupled with the physical exertion from the fusion just now, Gu Rong was extremely pale.
"Can you still handle a second attack?"
Lin Yi looked at him with a calm expression.
"No... probably not..."
Gu Rong said with a smile. Even if he gave up on the second attack today, he was still thrilled!
Damn, not only has he gained the strongest defense, but just the fact that today he was continuously attacked by Senior Lin Yi with five different Divine Artifacts was freaking cool!
It would be quite the bragging right if word got out!
Who else present could claim such an experience?
Don't even think about it!
If it were up to others' defensive abilities, a flick of Senior Lin Yi's finger could end their lives!
Hehe, not for me though, I have Adamant Metal!
Even if it's injected into the Martial Soul, when using the Martial Soul True Body, isn't it all the same?
"No worries, I'm satisfied," Gu Rong said with a laugh, waving his hand.
"Getting cocky, are we? How many people are dying to get just one more chance for such attacks every day, and here you are, turning it down?"
Chen Xin's smile vanished in an instant, and he immediately questioned Gu Rong.
He stepped onto the stage and said with frustration, "You old fool are just too easily content. I'll do the second attack for you."
"Alright, alright," Gu Rong said with a sheepish smile.
The two joined forces for one attack, but Gu Rong was just going through the motions, and Chen Xin was controlling the damage to avoid increasing Gu Rong's injury progress too much.
After it ended, Lin Yi turned to the display panel.
[Blood Loss: 164357]
[Remaining Hit Points: 899958013784]
[Damage Grade: Black (High Level)]
[Random Reward: Fifty Thousand Year Fragrance Damask Immortal *1]
[Host Reward: Fifty Thousand Year Fragrance Damask Immortal *3]
Lin Yi vaguely remembered that this reward seemed to have come up when he drew lots alone, but this was the first time it showed up for someone else.
"Damage 164357, Black Advanced Level, the reward is a Fifty Thousand Year Fragrance Damask Immortal," he explained.
"This Immortal Herb is the bane of all poisons, often used for poison defense, and its fragrance can also attract soul beasts as well as aid in recovering vitality."
After listening to Lin Yi's explanation, Chen Xin couldn't help but slap the back of Gu Rong's head.
"Hear that? Where the hell are you going to get that Fifty Thousand Year Immortal Herb if you give up this chance?"
Gu Rong's face turned sheepish, and he didn't refute, after all, Chen Xin truly had his best interests at heart.
Watching Gu Rong leave the stage, Chen Xin looked at his back with a touch of envy. That old bag of bones was getting luckier and luckier, he'd be lying if he said he wasn't envious.
He didn't know what the puzzle piece would turn out to be but hoped it wouldn't be a letdown... Chen Xin had banked all his anticipation and good mood for the day on this jigsaw puzzle.
It had better not disappoint him!
At that moment, Emperor Xue Ye approached.
"Why isn't Snow Night His Majesty wearing the garment reward from last time? Could it be that you don't like it?" Lin Yi asked casually.
Emperor Xue Ye was startled, and he hastily waved his hands in denial: "Not at all! It's just... the reward is so precious, I just can't bear to wear it, so I've stored it carefully. There's absolutely no disdain meant."
You're still putting that on... Such low presence this "clothing" has, will you be able to find it again next time?
Lin Yi felt like laughing, but he didn't tease him any further.
"Begin the attack."
"Yes, Senior."
Last time, the combined damage he and Lin Yi dealt had reached 210,000, completely thanks to the buffs from both the Sword Spirit and the Emerald Swan Martial Soul.
Emperor XueYe's assistance was unchanging, as he again used the third soul skill, Jade Light.
Chen Xin deployed his second soul skill.
The Seven Kills Sword radiated with a scarlet brilliance as it emerged in mid-air, and Chen Xin grasped its hilt in one hand.
When Lin Yi attacked with the Asura Sword just now, it really shocked Chen Xin, and from it, he grasped a few insights.
When Lin Yi wielded his sword, there were absolutely no techniques involved, just a very simple slash, decisive and direct, without any hesitation.
This gave Chen Xin a sense of simplicity in the ultimate path.
Chen Xin had always pursued delivering the highest possible damage with the simplest attack.
But he felt that he was still far from enough, always bound by sword techniques, compared to Lin Yi's "simplicity," it was like an embroidered pillow.
What Chen Xin didn't know was that Lin Yi's techniques were simple because he simply didn't know any techniques...
After obtaining the Asura Sword Martial Soul, Lin Yi didn't even check what the soul skills were, and he hadn't fused any of the sword techniques he acquired before, so he could only perform the simplest slash.
But it was this very simple slash that still gave Chen Xin the impression that he couldn't learn such simplicity even if he practiced for hundreds of years more.
If Chen Xin knew the truth was that Lin Yi didn't know anything at all, he might just collapse on the spot.
"Spiritual Sword Guard!"
As the dual sword imprints were completed, the sword intent of the Seven Kills Sword buzzed.
It was another extremely short and sharp slash, and after it was over, Chen Xin couldn't stop sighing.
He still couldn't achieve the feeling of Lin Yi's swordsmanship...
Blame my own lack of skill! Too weak!
While Chen Xin was wallowing in his own sorrow, Emperor Xue Ye eagerly awaited the reward.
[Blood loss: 237,468]
[Remaining Health: 899,957,786,437]
[Damage Grade: Red (Primary)]
[Random Reward: Martial Soul Blue Electric Overlord Dragon]
[Host Reward: Martial Soul Blue Electric Overlord Dragon (No Critical Hit)]
Ah this...
This reward...
Could it be that the system is determined to completely transform Emperor Xue Ye?
Lin Yi suddenly found it hard to imagine the frail and aged Emperor Xue Ye transforming in an instant into someone possessing a top-level beast martial soul with skyrocketing combat effectiveness...
The Emerald Swan Martial Soul on him wasn't much of an issue, but having the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Martial Soul... felt like a bit of a contrast explosion.
"Damage 237,468, Red Junior Level, your reward is the Martial Soul Blue Electric Overlord Dragon, prepare to merge with it on the spot."
Everyone was startled to hear this.
Emperor Xue Ye actually received the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Martial Soul?!
Even Emperor Xue Ye himself was somewhat stunned.
Such a graceful old man, who has "fighting is a crude behavior" written all over his face, has actually obtained a top-tier beast martial soul...
Well, alright then, a person's luck can sometimes just be this way, and here with Senior Lin Yi, anything could happen, so thinking about it that way, it's not so strange after all.
"Senior, did I hear you correctly? I've obtained the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Martial Soul?"
Emperor Xue Ye still couldn't believe it and asked again in amazement.
"That's right."
A top-level beast martial soul from the upper three families!
After being stunned, the corners of Emperor Xue Ye's mouth slowly turned upwards.
Indeed, why can't I indulge in some violence at my old age after being elegant all my life?
