After nearly ten hours of waiting, Zhu Ziyang and Elder Song finally witnessed Jiang Nannan's transformation.
The human-sized cocoon slowly melted away like snow meeting sunlight, gradually revealing the silhouette of the girl who lingered in Zhu Ziyang's thoughts.
Jiang Nannan remained as delicate and stunning as ever, but her once golden hair had transformed into a radiant silver that flowed lazily down to her waist. A gentle aura surrounded her like a spirit waking from spring slumber. Her silver-red eyes had deepened into pure crimson, like flawless coral, adding a noble and elegant air to her beauty. Her figure had also grown taller, her body more slender and graceful — poised and serene, captivating all who looked upon her.
Behind the girl floated three glowing soul rings — two yellow, one purple. Above them loomed the virtual image of her newly evolved martial soul.
It was a crystalline and unusual rabbit. Its pale yellow fur shimmered like moonlight during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Its two long oval ears were lined with delicate silver scales. It had a plump little mouth, and its round crimson eyes sparkled with liveliness, giving it an adorably endearing presence. Unlike ordinary rabbits, this one had a long tail equal in length to its ears. A silver cloud-shaped mark adorned its forehead — anyone could see at a glance this was no ordinary creature.
"Brother!" Jiang Nannan called out in excitement, then noticed Elder Song and greeted, "Elder Song."
"This is..." Elder Song ignored the greetings for now. Her gaze was fixed in surprise on the martial soul behind Jiang Nannan. With a thoughtful look, she murmured, "Moon Spirit Sacred Beast?"
"Lunar Jade Rabbit! It really is the Lunar Jade Rabbit!" Zhu Ziyang reacted similarly, though with much more excitement. The words burst from his mouth instinctively.
"Hmm?" Both Zhu Ziyang and Elder Song heard what the other said and looked at each other, exchanging puzzled glances, though neither asked further questions.
"Nannan, tell us quickly. How is your martial soul? What is its grade? What's your third soul skill? And your soul power level?" Zhu Ziyang fired off a rapid series of questions, leaving Jiang Nannan slightly dazed.
"Don't rush, Brother! Let me explain one by one." Jiang Nannan chuckled and began to answer.
She first described her martial soul. After the bloodline evolution, her Soft Bone Rabbit had completely transformed into the Lunar Jade Rabbit — a martial soul with pure lunar bloodline, ranked among the top-tier beast-type martial souls, on par with the Light Holy Dragon and Dark Holy Dragon.
The Lunar Jade Rabbit, also known as the Moon Spirit Sacred Beast, was an extinct super soul beast. In ancient times, it had been revered by certain human tribes as a messenger of the Moon God. With the rise of soul masters, this beast gradually disappeared from the world. The Lunar Jade Rabbit possesses the purest lunar bloodline on the Douluo Continent, and its powers are mostly moon-related.
According to Zhu Ziyang's knowledge, the Lunar Jade Rabbit surpassed the speed of light and shadow — one of the fastest beings in ancient times. It also had the ability to manipulate moonlight. In the presence of moonlight, its strength increased significantly. Records from the Martial Soul Hall indicated that it could emit soul-eroding cold rays and vanish into moonlight, teleporting silently — a terrifying assassin.
"So it really is the Moon Spirit Sacred Beast!" Elder Song exclaimed, her eyes now filled with appreciation and affection. If she'd taken interest in Jiang Nannan before mainly because of Zhu Ziyang, she now admired the girl in her own right.
"I didn't expect you to succeed so thoroughly, Nannan! Your martial soul and bloodline evolved all the way to the limit!" Zhu Ziyang was thrilled. Her success confirmed the validity of his entire plan and meant she had overcome her final weakness to become a true genius soul master.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly either!" Jiang Nannan's tinkling laughter and crimson eyes glowed with delight.
After describing her martial soul, Jiang Nannan began to explain her third soul skill.
Her third soul skill was called Silver Moon Golden Armor, a rare two-stage soul skill. Upon activation, a golden armor would appear on her body, granting complete immunity to all physical attacks and control effects for three seconds. For each additional soul ring she gained, this duration would increase by one second. When the armor vanished, all her abilities would be boosted by seventy percent for three seconds — again, gaining one extra second per ring in the future.
This skill stunned both Zhu Ziyang and Elder Song. Originally, Zhu Ziyang had chosen the Silver Moon Armored Beast precisely because of the famous Soft Bone Rabbit third skill, Invincible Golden Body. Though the martial soul itself was weak, Invincible Golden Body was undoubtedly divine — total immunity to physical attacks. Most Soft Bone Rabbit users failed to make proper use of it, wasting its potential.
After comparing over a dozen possible soul beasts that could grant Invincible Golden Body, Zhu Ziyang finally selected the Silver Moon Armored Beast — it combined lunar bloodline and top-tier defense. He'd believed that just obtaining Invincible Golden Body would be enough, but instead, Jiang Nannan had gained something even stronger. It made him start to wonder — could she be a legendary Daughter of Destiny?
Compared to Invincible Golden Body, Silver Moon Golden Armor retained the immunity effect but added a second boost phase — turning a pure defense skill into a powerful amplification tool. For an agility-type soul master like Jiang Nannan, it was the perfect trump card.
Moreover, due to her martial soul's evolution, Jiang Nannan's first and second soul skills had also changed.
Her first skill, Moon Shadow Body, evolved into Silver Moon Mystic Body, keeping the original effect but doubling the amplification.
Her second skill, Empty Moon Slam, became Silver Moon Sky Flash. It still lifted and slammed the target, but now included a teleportation effect. Previously, she had to approach the enemy to use it. Now, she could instantly teleport behind them, catching them completely off guard. Her current teleport distance was thirty meters.
In short, this martial soul evolution was a complete rebirth for Jiang Nannan.
"Excellent! Truly excellent!" Zhu Ziyang applauded with bright eyes.
Elder Song's gaze became even more appreciative, practically carving the words I really like this girl into her expression.
"Also," Jiang Nannan added with a sweet laugh, "when there's moonlight in the sky, all my soul skills are doubled in power!"
"That's to be expected — it's the Lunar Jade Rabbit after all!" Zhu Ziyang wasn't surprised. As the embodiment of the moon, it would be strange if moonlight had no effect.
"And finally, my soul power level," Jiang Nannan said, eyes gleaming with mischief. "Guess, Brother! Elder Song, guess!"
"I'll guess… level 33," Zhu Ziyang offered uncertainly.
"Level 34," Elder Song replied without hesitation. As a rank 97 Super Douluo, identifying a Soul Elder's power level was child's play.
"Hehe, correct! It's 34!" Jiang Nannan beamed, her cheeks flushed with excitement.
"Level 34… that makes sense," Zhu Ziyang analyzed. "Aside from the level gained from the third soul ring, the Moonlight Spirit Diamond gave you six whole levels. That's completely reasonable."
"Mhm! And it's all thanks to you, Brother. Otherwise, I might not have even reached Soul Elder yet!" Jiang Nannan hugged his arm and leaned her head affectionately on his shoulder.
"Ahem!" Elder Song cleared her throat pointedly. "Youngsters, behave. There's still an old lady here."
"Ah!" Jiang Nannan jumped up, face red with embarrassment, avoiding Elder Song's gaze.
Zhu Ziyang, however, just smiled calmly and looked at Elder Song. He already guessed what she was going to say next.
"Nannan, are you willing to become my disciple?" As expected, Elder Song asked.
