Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1376: Chapter 1379: The Short and Ugly True Form

”Stop playing dead, I know you’re still alive!”

Manager Jia didn’t believe that his countershock force could kill Ling Xiao. That guy’s body was incredibly resilient.

Boom!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, thousands of terrifying beams of light suddenly shot from the once calm lake water.

Then, a ball of light rose into the air.

Ling Xiao was shrouded in the light, holding a gigantic Ghost Shadow Sword that clearly fused with the power of the Divine Sword of Light.

Dazzling, radiant, scorching, pure, noble!

A single sword thrust towards Manager Jia’s arm.

This sword was almost the complete opposite feeling of the Demon Sword.

This gave those watching a feeling of extreme discord.

It was clearly so evil before, yet now it seemed so pure and noble. What was going on?

Swish!

The sword finally pierced through Manager Jia’s protective body Yuan power.

Yet, once again, Ling Xiao was blown away.

There was only a small burn on Manager Jia’s arm that didn’t seem too problematic.

”Is this your attack? It feels like you’re just tickling me.”

Manager Jia looked at Ling Xiao and laughed heartily.

”So it really isn’t enough, huh?”

Ling Xiao sighed, and a shadow helped him halt his backward motion.

”Looks like I’ll have to strengthen the attack!”

Suddenly, a bizarre scene appeared behind him again.

An endless blue sky.

No white clouds, no rainbows, just a scorching red sun hanging there.

Then, the Divine Sword of Light in Ling Xiao’s hand grew even brighter.

Divine Sword of Light—Sunrise Transformation!

That previous strike was just a probe, he wanted to know just how strong Manager Jia’s defense was.

Now he understood, the pure Divine Sword of Light was unable to harm the opponent, only with the Sunrise Transformation might it be possible.

The crowd watching this bizarre phenomenon looked terrified.

A Dark Demon Sword had slain more than ten Cave Heaven Realm martial artists!

Now, another Divine Sword of Light appeared! So scorching, so dazzling that their eyes couldn’t bear its brilliance.

How many trump cards did this Ling Xiao still have up his sleeve?

Manager Jia was stunned for a moment, he truly didn’t expect Ling Xiao to have a move stronger than the Heavenly Demon Annihilation just now.

But after a moment, he regained his calm and indifference.

”No matter how dazzling your attack, it can’t possibly harm me. In the face of an absolute disparity in strength, even the strongest moves are futile.”

”Is that so? You will pay for your words.”

Ling Xiao smirked disdainfully.

The strength of a martial artist boils down to factors like cultivation level, moves, martial soul, bloodline, and body.

The power of moves is equally a factor.

”Let’s see who pays the price then!”

Manager Jia completely dismissed Ling Xiao’s attack.

Because that previous attack of Ling Xiao caused him almost no harm, it filled him with a strong sense of complacency.

”Die!”

He no longer defended at all, channeling all his power into attack. The furious giant iron shovel swept towards Ling Xiao, enveloped in a fierce hellish storm.

But Ling Xiao was unfazed, thrusting his sword as the entire Ling Yue Bieyuan was engulfed in blinding light.

Most martial artists couldn’t see anything.

They only vaguely saw a rising sun speeding out.

After a long while, the light faded.

Ling Xiao stood there, pale-faced, with dozens of bleeding wounds all over his body, yet there was a smile on his lips.

On the other side, Manager Jia was wailing in agony, fire rolling over his body, releasing a thick scorched stench continuously.

”Ling Xiao won?”

”Seems like it, Manager Jia is burnt like that!”

”No way, a Second Dongtian Realm martial artist defeated a Sixth Dongtian Realm martial artist? Who would believe that?”

”But can you not believe the facts in front of you?”

Many martial artists in the crowd were dumbfounded, unable to believe what they were seeing.

Splutter!

Just when everyone thought Manager Jia was about to die, an extremely fast figure flew out from the flames and pierced through Ling Xiao’s body.

”What’s happening?”

The plot twisted so quickly, the crowd was confused.

Behind Ling Xiao stood a tiny figure about a foot tall, entirely red and extremely ugly.

While the huge body had turned to ashes.

”Ga ga ga, Ling Xiao, oh Ling Xiao, who would’ve thought that giant body was merely a special ability of my martial soul. Now you understand what it is to feel despair, don’t you?”

The tiny figure didn’t stop attacking, turning to stab at Ling Xiao again.

But this time, Ling Xiao didn’t let it succeed. He gracefully sidestepped, and although his speed wasn’t fast, it was evident that he was stepping according to a special array formation.

The tiny figure couldn’t discern his path and hence couldn’t reach him.

”Cough cough.”

Ling Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood and cursed, ”Damn, luckily I dodged the vital spots, otherwise I’d really be done for. To think such a bizarre martial soul exists in this world.”

The tiny figure was Manager Jia’s true self.

Before Ling Xiao used the Sunrise Transformation, he hadn’t revealed his true form, feeling it unnecessary.

But now, he had to reveal it.

Ling Xiao’s Sunrise Transformation Divine Sword of Light was too terrifying, something Manager Jia hadn’t anticipated.

The power almost cost him his life.

”Cousin, that tiny figure is Manager Jia? So short and ugly, what kind of martial soul does he have?”

Feng Yanran surprisingly forgot her worries, instead being drawn to Manager Jia’s bizarre transformation.

”This is nothing unusual, the Mysterious World is vast, nothing is impossible. If I’m not mistaken, his martial soul is the one recorded in books as the ’Skin Changer Martial Soul.’”

Feng Yingshan explained, ”This martial soul not only allows one’s body to change form but also enables the use of abilities the changed body possesses. Of course, the strength of these abilities still corresponds to one’s inherent cultivation level.”

”Why does this martial soul sound so terrifying?”

Feng Yanran asked again.

”It’s not just terrifying; it’s truly evil because the Skin Changer Martial Soul’s transformations require human lives to sustain them. Who knows how many martial artists Manager Jia has killed to strengthen his martial soul?”

Feng Yingshan’s mouth twitched. Such an evil martial soul was only documented in books; it was his first time seeing one in person. Even with his mindset, he found it somewhat hard to accept.

While Feng Yingshan was speaking, Manager Jia surprisingly didn’t attack Ling Xiao. Instead, he pounced on the bodies of the assassins who had died before.

Then, his body rapidly changed, assuming the appearance of the previous Fourth Cave Realm Assassin.

”This foolish assassin had a formidable martial soul but didn’t know how to use it, so let me, the Manager, take over.”

Manager Jia’s mouth curled into a cold smile, sinister and hideous.
