From Douluo to Zhe Tian

At the same time, Qin Tian felt an overwhelming surge of heavy energy pouring out of his martial soul brick, flowing through his meridians, transforming into an intense and violent soul power that spread throughout his body, reaching his limbs and bones.

Pain!

It felt as though his entire body was being torn apart. The crushing agony surged through him.

Under the tense gaze of Tang San and Xiao Wu, they watched as Qin Tian body seemed to inflate suddenly, swelling all over.

Qin Tian also felt as though he was going to die. His meridians, blood, and bones were breaking apart, and he wondered if he was about to die.

Had he gone too far? Was he about to become the first transmigrator to die in such a way?

Clearly, the story wasn't over yet. While Qin Tian wasn't invincible, he wasn't weak either.

A strong vitality surged from the Bronze Coffin on his left hand.

This was the strange energy he had felt after killing two 4,000-year-old soul beasts.

The energy was incredibly gentle. Wherever it passed, the broken meridians, muscles, and bones in Qin Tian body quickly healed, becoming even stronger than before.

However, the power of the 4,000-year soul ring was still formidable. With Qin Tian physique, absorbing a 2,000-year soul ring was the absolute limit.

He was toying with death, testing the capabilities of his unusual dual martial souls.

In the end, he succeeded, but the process was far from pleasant.

His body was constantly being broken and repaired, a torture that nearly drove him insane.

But strangely, Qin Tian couldn't lose consciousness. His mind was incredibly strong, and every time the pain threatened to make him pass out, he felt the faint presence of ancient symbols appearing on the brick in his right hand.

The endless, continuous pain almost seemed never-ending. Qin Tian tried to scream, but blood gushed out from his mouth, and no sound came out. Panicked, he quickly closed his mouth and gritted his teeth.

Crack!

His teeth shattered. One could imagine the extent of the pain he was enduring.

Cough…!

A mouthful of blood and teeth flew from his mouth.

But then, just as quickly, a soothing, gentle vitality flowed through him, and his teeth grew back, completely restored.

This was the price of growth. Was this the cost of seeking a shortcut to becoming stronger?

Meanwhile, Tang San and Xiao Wu were staring in shock. Tang San regretted his decision many times. He felt as if he had lost his mind, trusting Qin Tian to go this far. He should have stopped him.

Xiao Wu, on the other hand, thought Qin Tian was definitely going to die, that he would explode and perish.

But soon, both of them noticed that Qin Tian body would swell up and then return to normal.

One minute!

Two minutes!

Ten minutes!

...

One hour!

After an hour, they relaxed completely, taking out some provisions and starting to eat. They felt safe here. The remaining strength of the two 4,000-year soul beasts had scared away all the other beasts in the area.

"Big Brother, can you tell me about your past?" Xiao Wu asked, her big eyes turning as she looked at Tang San. In her mind, she now saw Qin Tian as some kind of monster.

To get Tang San to agree, she even called him "Second Brother" first.

It turned out, Xiao Wu had always refused to call Tang San that before.

Qin Tian had asked her to call him "Big Brother" and Tang San "Second Brother."

But Xiao Wu had always only done so in front of Qin Tian, while behind his back, she would call Qin Tian "Gazi Brother" and Tang San "Little San" or "Xiao San."

Over the past six months, the three of them had become close. Xiao Wu was bold and would even sneak into Tang San bed at night to sleep and meditate.

Strangely, because of Qin Tian, their relationship had grown closer.

Tang San had fallen for Xiao Wu charms and quickly sold out Qin Tian.

After hearing Tang San story, Xiao Wu was truly disappointed. She had believed Qin Tian was some sort of reincarnated 100,000-year power-type soul beast, but now it seemed he was just a human with dual martial souls.

"Xiao Wu, please, don't tell anyone about Gazi Brother's dual martial souls," Tang San said, looking at her with concern.

He wasn't sure if revealing Qin Tian dual martial souls in front of Xiao Wu would bring danger to him, especially if Xiao Wu told her family.

"Don't worry, I still want to stay close to Qin Tian training. I don't want to see him get taken away by the Spirit Hall," Xiao Wu replied in a mature tone, patting Tang San on the shoulder.

"You don't have to worry about me telling my family. I don't have any family. I got into the Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy because I revealed my martial soul to the dean and asked him to let me enroll as a work-study student," Xiao Wu said, her voice tinged with sadness.

Xiao Wu also had her own big secret. Her true identity, if revealed, would be just as shocking as Qin Tian and Tang San secret about dual martial souls.

Tang San was stunned. He had always thought that Xiao Wu was a runaway noble girl from her family, but now he realized the truth.

...

The next day!

Qin Tian finally completed his absorption of the soul ring successfully. He made it through, and survived.

It felt like he had been through life and death. If he had to do it again, Qin Tian wasn't sure he would have the courage to face it.

First, Qin Tian began to examine his new soul skills. What had he gone through all this pain for?

Soul Skills: Gravitational Force, Speed Burst.

Gravitational Force: This skill boosts the attack power of his weapon by 2.5 times for five seconds.

Speed Burst: This skill doubles the attack speed of his martial soul for four seconds.

Soul skills were incredibly mysterious. As long as one could sense their martial soul, they would understand.

After all, these were soul beast skills, transformed into something usable by Qin Tian. They weren't identical to the skills of the soul beasts themselves.

Unless Qin Tian martial soul was a beast martial soul, it was still possible.

However, this wasn't the focus. What mattered was that Qin Tian recalled that the first time he absorbed a soul ring, he had directly learned the Stun Fist and Shockwave Fist!

Excited, Qin Tian clenched his fists.

It had worked! He had gained Wild Charge and Gravitational Field.

Indeed, he could absorb soul beast soul rings and strip away their innate abilities, making them his own.

Gravitational Field: When activated, it creates a 2-meter radius around Qin Tian with 2.5 times the normal gravity for five seconds.

Wild Charge: It locks onto a target, temporarily forming a shield of earth energy and violently charging at the target, up to a distance of 20 meters. It can only be used once per day, and using it beyond the limit will damage the body.

Qin Tian believed he understood now. The shield created by the earth energy made his charge nearly invincible.

But without the shield, it was a double-edged sword—it could damage both the enemy and himself. If the enemy had a beast martial soul, he might not even be able to move them, and it could end up killing him.

Of course, Qin Tian thought he was different. His physical body had grown stronger, and he hadn't tested it yet, but he had a feeling this time the boost in strength would be huge. If it weren't, all the pain he endured would be for nothing.

Qin Tian estimated that his body strength was now at least comparable to a 700-800-year-old Shock Bear, if not stronger. He just needed to test it to be sure.
