Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

With Pei Yinghai, this burdensome girl, and another support-type girl he found somewhat agreeable, Ye Qing single-handedly crushed all the teams, firmly securing the top spot on Shrek's version of the "List of Heinous Criminals to be Killed".

It's worth mentioning that even in this ranking, Bei Bei was surpassed by Ye Qing, ranking second.

Beibei was hit quite hard.

It wasn't until the freshman assessment was over that he realized how much Ye Qing had deliberately lost in that previous tie. This defeat completely robbed Bei Bei of the motivation to catch up with Ye Qing, and instead he became immersed in his sweet romance with Tang Ya.

Zhang Lexuan returned from the Soul Fighting Tournament, initially overjoyed at winning the championship. However, upon seeing Bei Bei and Tang Ya's affectionate display, she instantly transformed into a "White Album enthusiast."

Cough cough... It's not that exaggerated.

In fact, in this world, because Bei Bei was desperately chasing after Ye Qing for those years, Zhang Lexuan always regarded him as a younger brother, a younger brother entrusted to her by Mu En.

The two of them spent almost as much time together as Ye Qing saw Zhang Lexuan.

Therefore, when Zhang Lexuan saw Beibei find his own happiness, she felt a sense of relief, as if a younger brother who needed her care had suddenly grown up.

No longer needing to pay attention to Beibei, Zhang Lexuan naturally returned to the inner courtyard, gradually striving to become the senior disciple of the inner courtyard.

As for Ye Qing...

He was looking at the champion's award for the freshman assessment in his hand, and the expression on his face was somewhat indescribable.

It was a complete left arm soul bone, pale gold in color, constantly radiating warm and gentle light-attribute soul power, and Ye Qing was very familiar with this soul bone.

The left arm bone of a ten-thousand-year-old golden earth dragon, radiating golden light.

"So, the script I got was actually Wang Dong'er's?" Ye Qing looked at the soul bone in his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a bit of a headache.

This soul bone is indeed a good thing, but its age is too low. Although it is an exception among exceptions for freshmen to take out such a thing in the assessment, it is probably an investment from an old guy in the Sea God Pavilion, and most likely it is Old Lin who controls the Treasure Pavilion.

But the age limit is too low, I don't like it!

A little thing that's just over ten thousand years old—besides Wang Dong, that silly goose who would treasure even trash like the Soul Ascension Pill, what genius would absorb something like this?

As for the Soul Bone, Ye Qing certainly wouldn't pretend to be generous and give it to the other two leg ornaments who won championships; it would be better for him to keep it for himself.

The question now is, what should we do with this soul bone?

Ye Qing frowned, recalling the knowledge he had learned, and focused on one particular technology.

"There's still one thing missing..."

Chapter 58 Merit Soul Bone, The Saw Man of Light

During the era of Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect, there was an extremely advanced technology, and the creation of this technology is thanks to our bright and great Shrek Academy.

This technology stems from the scarcity of soul bones.

As everyone knows, soul bones are extremely rare and precious equipment in the Douluo Continent world. The appearance of a soul bone can even cause brothers to kill each other.

However, the drop rate of soul bones is extremely low, and only soul masters with great luck and merit can obtain them.

Then, a young girl named Biyang had a sudden inspiration: "Since obtaining a soul bone requires luck and merit, why can't we actively accumulate merit and then use that merit to actively condense a soul bone?"

Thus, secret methods came into being.

As a true Shrek alumnus, Bi Yang Wan Yi perfectly inherited Tang San's excellent virtue of "only killing evil soul beasts". He discovered that killing those evil soul beasts could actually drop "merit halo" (soul ring). One merit halo is not enough to obtain a soul bone, so what about a bunch of merit halo?

Immediately afterwards, he began to kill a large number of 'evil soul beasts,' eventually slaying countless evil soul beasts and accumulating a vast amount of merit to conduct experiments, ultimately completing his monumental work—

Merit-based bone-solidifying method!

Good heavens, this is an incredible amount of merit.

This Soul Master was eventually awarded the title of [Gold Medal Soul Master] by the God Realm, and in their era, he was even comparable to Yu Xiaogang and was known as the new theoretical leader.

Well, in the end, Bi Yang Wan Yi entered the Sea God Pavilion and, with the help of Shrek Academy's reputation, promoted the Merit Flow Bone Condensation Technique.

Now that he has entered the Sea God Pavilion, this technology is naturally labeled as 'Shrek Production'. Of course, since the name Merit Soul Bone is a bit strange, this kind of soul bone was eventually renamed Secret Technique Soul.

Ye Qing didn't care where the technology came from; he only cared about the function of the secret technique's soul bone.

As a product formed from a large amount of merit, it is naturally not just for absorption. Although its development is extremely limited, it can be applied to two soul bones of the same nature, allowing them to fuse.

Another function of this is to enhance the compatibility between the Soul Master and the Soul Bone when the Soul Master absorbs a high-quality Soul Bone, making the fusion process smoother and reducing the pain experienced by the Soul Master during the fusion process.

Coincidentally, Ye Qing had read related records while browsing books in the Sea God Pavilion, and combined with the plot of the original work, he came up with this idea.

Fusion of the power of light to vanquish evil and the golden radiance!

The Light of Destruction is a bit too old. Even with Qingxi's help to increase its age, it has only increased by a little over a thousand years.

While the quality of the Golden Light was quite good, its age was simply too young, only a little over ten thousand years. It would be a great pity to give it up, but absorbing it would make Ye Qing seem too foolish.

The best solution is to try to combine them.

Just do it.

Ye Qing flew directly back to Seagod Island and asked Ye Feng for a piece of the Secret Technique Soul Bone.

Even Mu Jin, an outer court teacher, possesses a secret technique soul bone. As a titled Douluo, Ye Feng must also have such a collection, and more than one at that.

He asked Ye Feng for a piece of the soul bone under the pretext of conducting an experiment. Ye Feng didn't ask any questions. As long as it wasn't something worthless that he absorbed, he was fine with anything else.

After repeatedly instructing Ye Qing not to absorb this kind of soul bone, Ye Feng handed Ye Qing a piece of secret technique soul bone from his right arm.

Old Deng was still a little worried, so he simply gave Ye Qing a piece of his right arm soul bone, which no longer had a fusion slot. This secret soul right arm bone was also ten thousand years old.

Based on the logic that a hundred soul rings of the same type of soul beasts are fused into a single secret technique soul bone, to obtain such a ten-thousand-year-old secret technique soul bone, one would need to kill at least one ten-thousand-year-old, ten thousand-year-old, and all other hundred-year-old soul beasts, totaling one hundred years, to reach that age limit.

Merit points aren't so easy to accumulate.

However, the energy contained in this soul bone is also extremely high, which can increase the total soul power of the soul master who absorbs it by 10%.

After obtaining the soul bone, Ye Qing couldn't wait to begin experimenting.

Even if a regular Soul Master possesses two Soul Bones with similar characteristics and a Soul Bone of a Secret Technique, they still cannot complete the Soul Bone Fusion. Ye Qing is definitely not an ordinary person; he has his beloved wife Qingxi helping him.

Qingxi had lived in the Light of Exorcism for several years and knew her home inside and out. Using the right arm bone of the Mystic Soul as a medium, she fused the Light of Exorcism with the Golden Light, essentially expanding her home.

This is naturally not difficult.

The fusion of soul bones, which Ye Qing had anticipated would encounter many obstacles, was actually completed very easily.

The soul bone's name remained "Light of Demon Slayer," because Ye Qing was too lazy to think of any other name and simply used this one. However, the soul skills within the soul bone had changed.

The effect of the Golden Light is to assist in cultivation and purify soul power. It has little to do with offensive soul skills, so a second soul skill was not added to Light of Destruction. However, this allowed Light of Destruction, which could only be compressed into a beam attack, to no longer be limited to beam attacks.

As long as Ye Qing has a high enough level of control over his soul power, he can freely shape the Light of Demonic Extinction attack into any form and launch it.

Moreover, its power is greatly enhanced compared to the original Light of Exorcism.

"...The Saw Man and the Shameless Ray of Failure?" Ye Qing's eyes lit up; he had suddenly found a new source of amusement.

The second factor is the age limit of the soul bone.

The power of the right arm bone of the Mystic Soul and the left arm bone of the Golden Light was completely absorbed, increasing the age of the Light of Destruction to 80,000 years. Along with this, Qingxi, who lived in the Light of Destruction, also increased her cultivation to 5,000 years.

Ye Qing's own soul power level also reached the peak of level thirty-eight, an increase of one and a half levels.

This is just so cool!

The moment the soul bone fusion was complete, Ye Qing went to a secluded corner next to the Sea God Lake, closed his eyes, controlled his soul power, and poured it into the Light Demon-Slaying Soul Bone.

A large amount of light-attribute elements were compressed by the Light-Breaking Magic and finally gathered on Ye Qing's palm, forming a light wheel. Then, under Ye Qing's control, a row of sharp serrations extended from the edge of the light wheel.

Light Saw Man Form: Eight-Point Light Wheel!

Looking at the eight-part halo of light that had condensed in his palm, Ye Qing chuckled.

Of course, it's still a bit lacking, because it's only condensed and hasn't rotated yet. It can't be sawed up. Only after using soul power and mental power to make it spin rapidly like a flywheel, tearing through the air and making a series of whistling sounds, can this soul skill be considered completely complete.

Right now, I am the director of Shrek Meat Processing Plant!

Chapter 59 Vacation, Heading to Star Luo City

Ye Qing did not test the specific power of the Eight-Point Light Wheel, but judging from its ability to easily cut through the hard pebbles on the shore of Sea God Lake, it would be a piece of cake for it to cut through the bodies of other Soul Masters.

Not only is its attack area much larger than that of Light of Destruction, but it has also changed from a fixed penetrating attack to a cutting attack.

Once Ye Qing develops this soul skill further and enables the condensed soul power to explode, then he can move on to the next stage, the humiliation ray of defeat.

This single soul-bone fusion completely solved Ye Qing's lack of attack methods.

The Dark Gold Nebula Rift takes too long to charge up, and if you don't charge up the Claw Tear, it's like scratching a thorn against a heavily defended enemy. And frankly, the ranged attack capability of this skill isn't very good.

After the Light of Demonic Extermination Soul Skill underwent such a mutation, it completely made up for Ye Qing's shortcomings, making him a true offensive Soul Master.

An 80,000-year-old soul bone skill!

This age limit is already equivalent to the ninth soul ring age limit of most Title Douluo, and it can also increase in age limit as Ye Qing and Qing Xi become stronger, and its power can be further enhanced. It can be said to be a skill that will never go out of style.

In the current version, it is a powerful weapon among Soul Masters of the same level.

Ye Qing's combat strength is indeed very strong, but he doesn't have a soul skill that can deliver a decisive blow. The Light Breaking Magic skill is too unpredictable, otherwise Wang Dong'er in the original work wouldn't have basically never used this skill.

At most, he can only hold his own against those Soul Masters who are of a higher level by relying on his strong foundation and external advantages; he doesn't have any means to defeat them.

But things are different now.

With the incredible speed of his holy light, Ye Qing could even use eight-tenths of his light wheel to ambush and behead Soul Emperors or even Soul Saints.

"Finally, a decent power-attack type Soul Master!"
