Chapter 135 - 136 – Xuanzi: Why Are You Stealing My Soul Skills Too?!
In front of the Sea God Pavilion, two figures stood facing each other. Their soul power flared intensely, and it felt as though sparks of lightning clashed in the air.
The moment Elder Mu’s voice faded, Zhou Sichen’s entire body erupted in radiant golden light, and a brilliant golden dragon claw shot forward.
Xuanzi, standing opposite him, didn’t dodge or retreat—instead, he directly engaged Zhou Sichen in close combat.
Xuanzi had suppressed his cultivation to the five-ring level. At this moment, he was trapped within Zhou Sichen’s Sovereign’s Domain, and was being further suppressed by the Light Holy Dragon martial soul. Every move he made required significantly more energy.
On the other hand, Zhou Sichen showed not the slightest sign of fear. Even in close-quarters combat, he wasn’t at all inferior to the famously brutal Xuanzi.
Neither of them used any soul skills at this point. Their fists collided with raw power, flesh striking flesh in a fierce exchange. The more they fought, the more astonished Xuanzi became.
He had sparred with Zhou Sichen before and assumed the boy’s incredible close-combat prowess came solely from his fusion with his powerful contracted soul beast.
After all, the Darkgolden Terrorclaw Bear’s melee strength was among the very best in the continent.
But now, Zhou Sichen wasn’t using the contracted soul beast. He was merely borrowing the strength of the Mirror Shadow Beast to replicate Elder Mu’s martial soul and soul rings.
Yet, Zhou Sichen could still match him in hand-to-hand combat without using a single soul skill—and even seemed to hold a slight edge.
Xuanzi’s iron fists were now shrouded in an earthy yellow radiance. He threw a heavy punch at Zhou Sichen’s face while his first soul ring lit up. His mouth opened wide, letting out a thunderous roar.
