CH 114
(nobody's POV)
Hearing Altair's question, Ali giggled cutely as he put up a peace sign with his beautiful hands :"hihihi! My soul skill is really cool!
It's a target type soul skill. After I target someone, all of their attributes will decrease! But the amount of decrease will depend on my level.
If my opponent is a higher rank than my current rank which is soul king, the decrease will only be 5%, if the target is the same rank, a soul king, the decrease will be 10% and if the target has lower soul power level than me, 15%!"
Altair wolf whistled as he nodded with an impressed look :"well damn~, hot stuff. That's one badass ability. And once we fuse, the decreasing ability should be even more."
Eve smiled beautifully as he nodded :"mhm. It will definitely get stronger once we fuse. And now that our soul rings have grown even more, it will definitely become powerful once we fuse. Let's fuse already now."
As Eve said that, Altair nodded as the blue and red lights surrounded them again before they fused and the lights turned into a black and dark purple light before Ali appeared!
As Ali slowly and majestically opened his eyes, he released his martial soul. But this time, there were changes!
Scales began to grow on every part of Ali's body as his entire body turned into a black and dark purple demon!
His nails turned razor sharp, his hair turned into white dragon heads, he grew 3 pair of horns, wing hands and long tails!
Truly a demon, but even in his demonic form, the unparalleled beauty that he possessed couldn't be concealed!
But what was even more surprising and terrifying than his martial soul, was the soul rings that showed up.
Red, red, red, red, red! 5 blood red 100'000 year old soul rings appeared and floated with him at their center!
Ali had lifted up the barrier, so the moment the soul rings appeared, every soul beast in the inner part of the Star Dou Great Forest shook in fear as they hid away wherever they could!
At that moment, Ali wasn't smiling, he was wearing a nonchalant face, looking like a true majesty that looks down upon the whole world and creation!
Ali raised his right hand and looked at his scaly and demonic hand nonchalantly :"so much power.
I feel so powerful. The power that flows in these 100'000 year old rings is nothing I have ever felt before.
I haven't ever transformed into my dragon form or Celestial Sapien form, so this is the most powerful state I have ever been in."
As he clenched his hand gently, he raised his right hand to his left shoulder and one of his red 100'000 year soul rings flashed with a bloody light!
The same two handed blade from before, Celestial Blade Ali appeared in his right hand, looking many, many times stronger than ever!
As Ali gripped the handle of the huge blade, Ali's 3rd soul ring also flashed before he swung the blade down in a half circle.
But what happened, was a terrifying scene that would shock many! As Ali used 100% of his strength when swinging the sword using his 3rd soul skill, the ground shook as hundreds of meters at the direction where the blade was swung at were as if a titan put its hand under the ground and dug everything out!
Ali nonchalantly and majestically turned his head and looked to the side to see the giant cut on the ground that stretched for a hundred meters and didn't leave anything in its path but destruction, causing him to smile!
Ali sighed in satisfaction as he stopped using his soul skills and looked up at the starry sky :"this power... I can really get used to it."
"Mother! Mother!" Vali's child like voice sounded as Ali received a mental message from his child like spider.
Ali turned his head and looked to the opposite direction of where he had swung his blade to see Vali and his other spider children jumping up and landing on his body :"mother, that was so cool! You looked really awesome! Congratulations!"
Ali smiled gently as he used his soul power to make a small rope of soul power to scratch Vali and his other spider children's small heads :"I see, I'm glad that you liked it. So? What happened while I was absorbing the soul rings?"
Vali smiled as he reported the situation while enjoying the head scratch of his mother :"mother, the barrier that you put up was amazing!
There were some soul beasts that came and went, but they didn't realize anything here, so they just went and we ignored them. Hihi, but we have a surprise for you that you will definitely be pleased with!"
Ali raised his eyebrow while still in his Divine Devil form as some of his spiders that still hadn't returned came to him while a spider was being dragged on the ground behind them.
When Ali saw the spider, his eyes went slightly wide as Vali laughed proudly :"while standing guard for mother, we all felt a familiar energy.
So a few of us went to check on what the familiar energy was. And they found this hundred year old thunder death spider hiding!
Thunder death spiders are extremely good at hiding and can't be found that easily, so the reason for that familiar energy was because our home, you divine spider spears are from a thunder death spider!
We knew that your new martial soul, Majesty's Peony Of Chaos still doesn't have any soul rings.
And from what you've taught us, we knew that the first soul ring can have a great impact and effect on the martial soul!
So, if you absorb the soul ring of this thunder death spider, your martial soul will posses an extremely deadly poison which is even more powerful than your brother's blue silver plant!
But, well... This thunder death spider is only a hundred years old... So we just knocked it out using our poison and brought here for you to decide on what to do."
As Vali explained, Ali listened to him and looked at his spider children dragging the one or two meter spider as if it's nothing.
For naked eyes, it looked like as if the extremely small spiders were walking on the ground and the body of the thunder death spider was just magically being pulled without any help.
But that wasn't the truth, it was actually being pulled by the Ali's spider children's webs! But well, with how tiny the spider children themselves were, the webs were almost invisible.
Even Ali who had now become a soul king had to focus really hard to see the tiny webs pulling the thunder death spider!
When Vali stopped talking, Ali smiled as he scratched his and the other spider children's heads fondly :"I see, thank you for looking out for your mother.
As you said, this soul beast is extremely suitable for my Majesty's Peony Of Chaos since it will make it extremely poisonous.
And no need to worry about its age. Because of my bloodline ability, all of my soul rings will turn into 100'000 year old soul rings no matter what their age was when I absorbed them.
<His excuse for why his soul rings' age grow whenever he absorbs a new soul ring, his bloodline transforms them. It isn't a lie either, he has modified his bloodline to have this ability. Meaning his future children will also have growth type soul rings>
So, forget about a hundred years old, even if it was a one year old soul beast, the soul ring that I would have absorbed would instantly become a 100'000 year old soul ring."
Vali chuckled like a child as he enjoyed the head scratches before humming :"yes, mother! Glad that we could be of help!"
Ali smiled fondly at the spiders before chuckling gently :"alright, you guys have done good, thank you, now you should go and sleep. Since this is just a hundred years old thunder death spider, I can absorb its soul ring in a matter of minutes. Then I will make my way back to martial soul hall."
Vali and the other spider children saluted Ali again with smiles :"aye aye, captain! Let's go guys! Let's not disturb mother!"
And then, the small spiders began to crawl towards Ali's Divine Spider Spears that he had released with a speed that would make an arachnophobic person shit their pants.
After they all returned to their home, Ali took back his Divine Devil martial soul and Divine Spider Spears before releasing his Majesty's Peony Of Chaos.
As the beautiful black and dark purple peony appeared in his hand, the black snakes circled his hand fondly.
Ali gently played with the snakes before the small blue light in their eyes caught his attention :'this light... It appeared ever since one of the snakes bit San'qe and swallowed his blood... Can it be...?'
He gently lifted the head of one of the snakes using his thumb on its chin as he smiled :"hey, little guy, when you swallowed that boy's blood, did you do it to get his unawakened bloodline?"
The snake nodded excitedly as its tongue wiggle around. Ali rubbed the chin of the adorable snake as he grew a little serious :"you seem to have gotten it, it seems to be unawakened as well, though. But, the boy still has his own bloodline, right?"
Sensing the seriousness in Ali's tone, the three snakes all looked at him and nodded hurriedly in conformation.
Ali breathed out a sigh of relief as he smiled at the Peony's snakes :"good, I was a little worried there, but I'm glad that you've just helped me get even stronger by getting me another bloodline."
The snakes closed their eyes and smiled as they hissed in appreciation before Ali pursed his lips with a thoughtful expression :"but now that it's a mix of two martial souls, I should probably change its name... Hmm... I will call it... Majesty's Purple Black Peony. alright, let's kill this thunder death spider and absorb its soul ring."
As he declared, he created a beautiful ice sword using his ultimate ice before stabbing the completely unconscious thunder death spider dead.
The poison of the spider children was so strong that it didn't even flinch once it was stabbed, just died peacefully.
As the yellow soul ring rose from its body, Ali sat down in a lotus position as he pulled the soul ring towards him with his soul power :'with the terrifying aura of the 100'000 year soul rings just now, no soul beast should dare to get close to this place for a few hours. More than enough for me to absorb the soul ring.'
Once the yellow soul ring floated around him, Ali didn't bother to slowly absorb the low soul power inside as he just devoured it.
Compared to the floor like soul power inside the fifty thousand year old soul rings that he absorbed just a while ago, this hundred year old ring was like a drop of water in front of a lake.
So Ali took only a minute to absorb the whole thing before he opened his eyes and let out a satisfied sigh :"that's better. Now, let's see what the soul skills are."
As he searched his ocean of consciousness to look at the new 100'000 year old soul ring, his eyes went wide open at the soul skills he got from the ring.
He gulped with a speechless look :'what kind of broken ass ability is this...? As expected, there are two soul skills that these soul ring gave me.
One is purple black spears, it will basically create vines around me like San'qe does with his blue silver grass, but not only did I get the ability to summon incredible tough purple black vines since my current martial soul is a mix of the Lovesick Heartbroken Scarlet and the unawakened blue silver emperor, I can use this skill to make them incredibly sharp and attack the opponent. It can be used as both control type ability and group attack ability.
But what the fuck is this second one?! As long as there is soul power and this soul skill is active, the purple black vines can't be broken no matter what?!'
