When Zhang Lexuan was shocked, the two people who were practicing the martial soul fusion technique selflessly also discovered its existence.
Then the eighteen stars fell from the sky without any explanation and trapped Zhang Lexuan inside.
Zhang Lexuan instinctively wanted to release her Moon Martial Soul to resist, but as soon as the eight soul rings rose, the eighteen stars connected with each other, as if they had transformed into a circle of brilliant star rings, releasing layers of ripple starlight visible to the naked eye.
The ripples of starlight circled inward, and Zhang Lexuan's arms were immediately bound behind her by materialized starlight chains.
As the light of the full moon descended, the eight soul rings around her body suddenly lost their color. The protective soul power that surged like water waves was like a receding tide, dissipating continuously, and the martial soul hanging above her head also dissipated instantly.
"I can't move. What kind of martial soul fusion technique is this?" Zhang Lexuan was shocked.
She wanted to speak, but was shocked to find that her body and the space around her had frozen, the air was not flowing, and her sound could not be transmitted.
Moreover, her body was unable to move, her martial soul dissipated, her soul power collapsed, her qi and blood retreated, and her spirit was weak, as if she had turned back into an ordinary person.
According to the records of Shrek Academy, there have been some extremely special control-type soul skills, such as the Bipolar Stasis Field of Jue Wu Douluo from the Spirit Hall ten thousand years ago. However, that kind of soul skill only trapped the target and could not cause continuous damage, let alone turn the soul master back into an ordinary person like it does now.
If this continues, she suspects that her soul power will be destroyed!
"Return~!" A pleasant and neat voice came from the villa.
The star ring spun at high speed, stirring up circles of starlight chains inward, eight circles in total, binding Zhang Lexuan from her feet to her neck, outlining her distinct body curves.
"Disperse." A deep and steady voice came from the villa again.
The scene of the moon surrounded by stars gradually faded, the nebula fell back to the earth, and the surrounding things regained their colors.
"Bang~!"
The martial soul fusion technique dissipated, and the bound Zhang Lexuan was exhausted and fell down powerlessly. It seemed that only a pair of black eyes could move.
After a moment, Xu Tianxi and Xu Jiujiu walked out with strange looks in their eyes.
"Isn't this the senior sister from the inner courtyard who came from Shrek and returned to your Sun Moon Empire to recognize her ancestry?"
Xu Jiujiu recognized Zhang Lexuan based on the intelligence portrait, raised his chin slightly, looked at Xu Tianxi and said with a smile: "I have never met her before. Is she here to see you?"
"Maybe."
Xu Tianxi raised his eyebrows, feeling a little unsure, and asked Zhang Lexuan, "Aunt, what are you doing here? Why did you follow me here?"
"I... I finished my retreat these past two days. I heard that you were back and wanted to see you."
Zhang Lexuan squirmed her body but couldn't break free. Feeling quite ashamed, she lowered her head a little and answered with a blushing face.
She used to be the eldest sister of Shrek's inner courtyard, an Eight-ringed Soul Douluo, whose strength rivaled that of a Titled Douluo. Now, she had been defeated by two juniors using a soul fusion technique. It was truly humiliating.
No wonder Mr. Kong thought he could no longer threaten Xu Tianxi. He must have undergone many changes in the past two years that he was not aware of.
Xu Tianxi frowned slightly when he heard this, looked at the dark night, and said curiously: "You can come to see me anytime, why do you have to come so late at night? And you ran outside someone else's house."
After hearing Xu Tianxi's words, Zhang Lexuan couldn't help rolling her eyes before she answered for a long time, thinking to herself, didn't you also run to my door when I was about to take a break and call me out to test the martial soul fusion technique?
During the day, I followed you to count the names of people and throw the execution orders one by one. My hands are sore. At night, I am not allowed to rest. It is simply inhumane.
The soul guidance technology of your Sun-Moon Empire is so advanced, is it because you are all animals that don't need to rest?
Xu Tianxi seemed to sense something in his heart, and sensed Xu Jiujiu's dissatisfaction with him, so he calmly transmitted his voice: "How can you slack off in your cultivation? It will be of great benefit to both you and me if we can cultivate the martial soul fusion skill as early as possible. Look, this will capture my aunt alive, right?"
"She fell before I even used any strength. This shows that this martial soul fusion technique has great potential. It can easily deal with a Titled Douluo, and a Super Douluo can also be tried."
"You are a Quasi-Soul Saint, and I am a Soul Saint. Our combined soul powers are far inferior to those of a Super Douluo. You and I should be proud of being able to achieve this."
The "Stars Supporting the Moon" martial soul fusion skill that he and Xu Jiujiu jointly released did not consume as much soul power as his own martial soul fusion skill. The actual combat effect was very significant, with a huge range and could be used for group attacks.
After thinking for a while, he gave an opinion with his eyes: "Then...should I call His Majesty the Starbreaker some other day and ask him to do some experiments?"
"My Eighteen Stars have the ability to seal off space. He is cultivating his spatial ability, so he is the best experimental subject."
Xu Tianxi fully agreed with this opinion: "That's great! Shattering Star Douluo was able to withstand the attack of the Creation Cannon that I controlled without being seriously injured. His strength is beyond doubt."
In fact, he still has Qiangu and his son who can help with the experiment, but since Xu Jiujiu recommended Shattered Star first, let him, the level 95 Super Douluo, try it first.
This guy is pretty tough, at least better than Zhang Lexuan.
Xu Jiujiu said again: "Don't use too much force. I found that your total soul power is much greater than mine. In just a short while, I have consumed nearly half of my soul power..."
Xu Tianxi had been prepared for this: "Don't worry about such trivial matters. Now think about the soul beast with the seventh soul ring that is most suitable for you. There is no limit on the soul ring cultivation level when conferring soul spirits. You can set your sights on those hundred thousand year old beast kings."
Xu Jiujiu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Are you serious? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"For the sake of your royal brother, there is no need for me to lie to you."
Xu Tianxi said calmly, "You and I are now in a relationship of sharing weal and woe. When you become stronger, I will become stronger. When our soul powers merged just now, there was not even the slightest barrier between us. This is probably at least 99% true, if not 100%."
While launching the martial soul fusion technique, he consulted the Mountain Dragon King and Electrolux in the sea of spirituality, and both of them gave the conclusion that "this is a hundred percent complete fusion and intersection."
"Although I don't know why you and I have such a high degree of soul power compatibility, but in this state we can theoretically practice together; your cultivation is not bad, but your foundation is too weak. You need to find some good things to supplement it when you have the chance."
Xu Tianxi had guessed in his mind that this situation might be related to the Xu family's Star God Beads, but as long as this 100% fusion did not come from the Heavenly God King Tang, then it would be fine and would be a good thing.
Xu Jiujiu raised his eyebrows, held his head high and said in a somewhat unconvinced manner: "Are you looking down on my strength? I am one of the very few geniuses in the history of the Xu family who was able to cultivate to level 70 before the age of 20."
Xu Tianxi smiled faintly: "Soul Sage is nothing rare here. With the full support of those souls, we have many Soul Sage-level geniuses here, and their talents are no less than yours."
"This... is awesome of you."
Thinking of the "remnants of the Spirit Hall" holy angel Miss Ye whom he met during the day, Xu Jiujiu had to admit that what she said made sense.
When Zhang Lexuan saw the two of them "exchanging glances" and "secretly communicating" in front of her, she secretly sighed at what a wonderful fate it was and felt mixed emotions in her heart.
Throughout the history of the soul master world, the existence of martial soul fusion techniques would allow two soul masters to become extremely close. Except for very few extreme cases, the vast majority of people would become sworn brothers or husband and wife.
The White Tiger Family and the Netherworld Family are representatives of this group, and they have been intermarrying for the purpose of fusion of martial souls from generation to generation. As long as the current White Tiger Duke achieves the title of Douluo, he can combine with his wife to form a Netherworld White Tiger that is comparable to a Super Douluo.
Xu Tianxi and Xu Jiujiu have a special relationship. Even if there is still a gap between them due to their respective identities, at least they will not have much hostility towards the original three kingdoms.
only...
"It would be great if this relationship happened in Shrek..."
When she met Xu Tianxi again after two years, Zhang Lexuan found that Xu Tianxi's murderous intent was much stronger than two years ago. His eyes were as cold as a peak, and his every move could decide life and death, and he was extremely familiar with it.
This kind of temperament cannot be cultivated, it can only be forged through experiencing life-and-death battles. His decisiveness in killing is frightening, and his strength... is now also frighteningly strong.
He was taken down before he even had a chance to make a move.
"He is only fifteen this year, but his strength is so amazing. If he is a little older, how can Dean Yan be his opponent? Elder Song and others can't stop the terrifying strong men of the Sun Moon Empire..."
Although she didn't ask, Zhang Lexuan already knew that Xu Tianxi was as determined as iron, and his killing intent towards Shrek had never retreated in the slightest. He was so cruel to kill his own people, let alone Shrek?
At this time, Xu Tianxi and Xu Jiujiu seemed to have just remembered that there was a living person in front of them. They stopped chatting and said seriously, "Swear to keep it secret in the name of Wuhun. Can you do it?"
Zhang Lexuan didn't expect Xu Tianxi to say this. She couldn't help but smile bitterly on her weak face, "Don't you really trust me? I held you in my arms back then."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Jiujiu's eyes were suddenly filled with excitement. There was actually some melon to eat here?
She stared at Xu Tianxi with a mocking look, looking forward to how he would respond.
Xu Tianxi still had no expression on his face, and said calmly:
"If nothing happened back then, do you think I would be willing to come this far? Who caused me to lose my mother at a young age and become helpless? Don't think we don't know that you still think about Shrek."
"It's been two years since you returned to your roots in the Sun Moon Empire. What's the point of still thinking about Shrek? Do I need to remind you that you have been expelled from the Shrek Inner Court, your files have been sealed forever, and I have become a taboo figure that no one in the Shrek Inner Court can talk about. I am enjoying the same treatment as Xu Sanshi?"
"You love Shrek, but does Shrek love you? They didn't even get to meet you in person, but they believed my method of sowing discord two years ago. In the past two years, the number of spies they sent to get information about you is not as many as the secret entourage of Princess Xingluo who is by my side.
The Sun-Moon Empire has never done you any wrong in the past two years. Apart from not allowing you to leave the country, is there anything you can't do?
Ling Luochen and Xiao Xiao also got the best resources. What they lacked compared to Shrek was the illusory enlightenment of the golden tree or the thirty missions of the supervisory group that required the desperate efforts of the students?"
Zhang Lexuan immediately lowered her head, like a panicked woman whose heart was exposed by her current husband's family and who was still in her ex-husband's house. She did not dare to look Xu Tianxi in the eye.
After a long while, she said weakly: "Okay, I swear..."
Xu Jiujiu took it all in, and her beautiful eyes became brighter. There are many stories about Xu Tianxi.
…
At dawn, in Shrek City, the monthly Sea God Pavilion meeting was held as usual.
Elder Song sat in the main seat, followed by Elder Dong, Elder Zhuang, Yan Shaozhe, and Xian Lin'er. Behind them sat six temporary senior members of the Sea God Pavilion, all of whom had the cultivation level of Titled Douluo.
"This meeting is somewhat special from previous ones. Many people of high ideals from the Xingluo Empire and the Tianhun Empire have been sending us messages recently. The royal families of the two empires have also sent us news. Please take a look."
Elder Song took the lead as usual, and then immediately handed the initiative to Yan Shaozhe, saying, "Shaozhe, you tell everyone about it."
Yan Shaozhe stood up, said hello, coughed twice, and spoke slowly.
"Everyone, something big happened in the Sun-Moon Empire recently..."
