To subdue Su Xing and make him her mount, Duanmu Qing took it seriously. The surrounding discussions did not affect her; her almond eyes flashed with cold light, and she was fully focused on Su Xing.
Su Xing felt a chill, sensing the heavy atmosphere in the air, and he also became fully alert.
As a powerful Ghost Officer of the Eighth Rank, Duanmu Qing had already perfected the Ninth Rank of Ghost Soldiers and the Seven Soul Chakras, and she was a Black-Level Soul Collector, often battling fierce and evil ghosts. Her combat experience was rich, and ghosts like Cui Yu and Dongmei could not compare.
This was the source of Duanmu Qing's confidence. She was confident that she was stronger than Su Xing, a new Black-Level Soul Collector.
*Bang*, *Bang*, *Bang*...
Duanmu Qing activated her Strength Soul, Qi Soul, and Hero Soul, among the seven soul chakras. When a lion fights a rabbit, it uses all its strength, let alone when the opponent is Su Xing.
First, Duanmu Qing's aura came at Su Xing. Having reached the level of aura, her aura was very solid and not affected by her self-imposed cultivation restrictions, presenting itself perfectly.
Black mist spread across the ground, and a dark, cavernous mountain appeared behind Duanmu Qing.
"Prison Mountain!"
The onlookers' expressions changed when they saw the black mountain, and they all retreated.
"Is that the Prison Mountain?" Su Xing said in a deep voice. He had seen it before, on the list published by the Prison Department and on the seals and tokens of the Prison Department, which all bore the mark of the Prison Mountain.
It was a towering mountain with only one peak reaching the sky. The mountain body was pitch black, with no soil or rocks, similar to the Iron Enclosure Mountain at the Ghost Gate, but different. The barren surface was crisscrossed with ravines, and dark purple blood flowed within, terrifying indeed!
"Aura Suppression!" Su Xing's eyes suddenly widened, and he activated nine qi soul chakras. A vague divine figure appeared, emitting ten thousand rays of golden light, suppressing the demonic Prison Mountain.
Black mist and golden light intertwined. Although Duanmu Qing and Su Xing had not yet truly engaged, their auras were already clashing intensely.
"Suppress!"
Su Xing roared, his voice like a thunderclap. The golden outline suddenly sank, and the black mist dispersed. The bleeding Prison Mountain was about to be suppressed.
"What a terrifying aura!"
"Is the Prison Mountain really about to be suppressed? What is that golden outline?"
The ghosts were shocked, especially those who knew the terror of the Prison Mountain. It was truly unimaginable and hard to believe.
"投降吧,我考虑不收你为暖床丫鬟。" Su Xing said, like a celestial deity, high and mighty, leaving no room for doubt. He wanted to win without a fight, after all, his opponent was his superior's daughter, and stopping the conflict was the best outcome.
Duanmu Qing was slightly surprised. She did not expect a Soul Collector's aura to surpass hers, but she quickly calmed down and sneered at Su Xing's offer of surrender.
"No way, I want to make you my mount!" Duanmu Qing said, pulling out a necklace from her leather chest wrap, with a miniature mountain pendant.
"Go!"
Duanmu Qing lightly commanded, and a ghostly light immediately rose from the pendant, shooting into her aura Prison Mountain.
"This is a State Treasure!? No, it shouldn't have reached that level." Many of the ghosts exclaimed, their eyes fixed on the small mountain pendant on Duanmu Qing's chest, their eyes burning with excitement, then they calmly analyzed.
"State Treasure?" Su Xing's eyes moved, and he immediately felt the immense resistance to his aura. The mysterious golden figure suppressing the Prison Mountain could not continue halfway down.
State Treasure, Su Xing, well-versed in books, understood. Above aura and weather, there was the even more ethereal and profound concept of destiny, and State Treasures were used to suppress destiny, extremely precious!
When Yan Li was born, she was enfeoffed as the Princess of the Netherworld by King Yama, and a golden scroll, the Ten Thousand Spirits Ghost List, once appeared, which was one of the State Treasures used to suppress the destiny of the Netherworld!
With the enhancement of the small mountain pendant, Duanmu Qing's aura was now evenly matched with Su Xing's nine qi soul chakras.
"You should be the one to surrender. I can consider making you suffer less!" Duanmu Qing said, kindly reminding, "I have more than one Strength Soul chakra."
*Bang*
Duanmu Qing kicked off, like a spear shooting out, extremely fast.
"More than one?" Su Xing's lips curled into a mysterious smile. He kicked off, transforming into an arrow, raising his large fist, and smashing it down.
*Boom*
Like a great bell ringing, Su Xing and Duanmu Qing collided, instantly creating a huge wave of air. The surrounding tables and plates were overturned, and at the center of the impact, the ground cracked and sank with a *bang*.
*Step*
Duanmu Qing took a step back, her entire foot sinking into the ground, her face immediately changing.
"Your strength is not enough!" Su Xing sneered, throwing another punch, the wind roaring, the fist sharp like a blade.
Duanmu Qing's face changed again, her body quickly retreating, her arms raised to block Su Xing's other punch.
*Pang*
Duanmu Qing was hit hard, stepping back, using the retreat to dissipate the force of Su Xing's punch, leaving footprints on the ground.
"How can there be such great strength?" Duanmu Qing looked at Su Xing in shock, shaking her arms. If not for her frequent battles with evil ghosts, her ghost body's strength far surpassing that of ordinary Ghost Officers, her arms would have been crippled.
"Continue!"
Su Xing pressed his advantage, stepping forward, and raised his iron fist to smash at Duanmu Qing.
"Damn, does he not know how to show mercy to a woman!" The ghosts cursed, looking at Duanmu Qing's slender arms with pain, wishing they could rush forward and destroy Su Xing.
"Third Eye Chakra open!"
A faint silver crescent appeared on Duanmu Qing's forehead, her pupils glowing with black light.
Just as Su Xing's fist was about to hit Duanmu Qing, his movements seemed to slow down. Duanmu Qing, unhurried, dodged Su Xing's attack, her hands soft and flexible, striking Su Xing's chest.
*Bang*
Su Xing's eyes widened. He felt Duanmu Qing's movements suddenly speed up, hammering his chest like lightning.
It wasn't over. As Su Xing was hit and forced back, Duanmu Qing grabbed his arm, pulling him in, and her slender palm slashed at his head!
Su Xing's pupils contracted sharply. In his eyes, Duanmu Qing's palm turned into a sharp blade, cutting towards his neck. If it hit, his head would roll to the ground.
At the critical moment, Su Xing suddenly bent over, performing an iron bridge to dodge Duanmu Qing's palm. At the same time, he kicked out with both legs, aiming at Duanmu Qing.
*Whoosh*
The sound of his legs splitting the air, like thunder, aimed at Duanmu Qing. If it hit, even a Black-Level Soul Collector like Duanmu Qing would not be able to withstand it.
"Showing off in front of an expert!" Duanmu Qing's martial arts were excellent. Her supple waist bent, and her long, shapely legs swept out like a sharp leg whip, with terrifying force, *bang* kicking Su Xing away.
*Boom*
Su Xing crashed into the wall corner, almost spitting blood, but no blood came out.
"What's going on?" Su Xing coughed, his brows furrowed, looking at Duanmu Qing. It seemed all his movements were seen through by her.
Third Eye Chakra...
Su Xing seemed to understand something. After all seven soul chakras were condensed, one's strength would reach a new level.
The Life Soul is the root of the seven souls, and the seven souls are the branches of the Life Soul.
Without the Life Soul, the souls cannot exist, and without the souls, the Life Soul cannot flourish.
Only with the Wisdom Soul in the human forehead can the images of the Heaven Soul and Earth Soul be manifested. Only then can the images seen by the Heaven and Earth Souls be displayed in the human brain and the Third Eye.
Everyone's Third Eye Chakra is open, also known as the Moon Chakra.
The moon itself is an open eye, and the eye is the eye, so the Moon Chakra in the forehead is an open eye.
The moon is not bright without the sun, and the moon is bright when it gets the light of the sun, which is the light of the Life Soul getting the light of the Heaven Soul. If the moon can also get the shadow of the Earth Soul, it will naturally form an image, which is the Thousand-Eyed Brightness.
"Originally, it was the Wisdom Soul Chakra that condensed, opening the Third Eye Chakra, giving her a third eye, seeing through all my movements." Su Xing understood the reason, feeling helpless, as he had not yet condensed any chakras other than the Strength Soul and Qi Soul.
Nine Qi Soul Chakras, nine Strength Soul Chakras, although the number far exceeded other ghosts, the lack of other chakras meant missing functions and some abilities being restrained.
Like the nine Strength Soul Chakras, Su Xing now had immense strength, but his movements were all seen through by Duanmu Qing, making it futile to hit her.
"Originally, your Wisdom Soul Chakra's Moon Chakra was not open, ha ha, why aren't you moving? You brute." Duanmu Qing mocked.
"Brute? Ha ha, when you become my bed warmer, I'll show you if I'm a brute." Su Xing laughed strangely.
"You, shameless!" Duanmu Qing gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing, and attacked again.
"Getting angry already?" Su Xing faced her, though his movements were restrained, he was not afraid, as he had his own way to deal with her.
Duanmu Qing displayed her superior martial arts, and soon they were locked in battle. Strong auras burst forth, and the sound of *bang* and *bang* echoed everywhere. Tables and food were blown away, and the floor and walls of the hall were full of cracks.
*Bang*
Duanmu Qing dodged, and Su Xing's fist grazed the wall pillar, shattering a corner.
*Crack*
Su Xing suddenly turned his head, dodging Duanmu Qing's palm. A steel pipe was broken, and a strand of hair was cut off.
Their battle was intense, purely physical, with every punch hitting flesh, no fancy moves.
"How can this be?" Duanmu Qing was increasingly shocked. She had clearly seen through Su Xing's moves, but the battle was becoming more difficult.
"Surprised, aren't you?" Su Xing smiled victoriously. "You did open the Third Eye Chakra, seeing through my movements, but... so what! One force can overcome ten skills!"
One force can overcome ten skills!
Duanmu Qing's eyes widened. How much strength did Su Xing have, able to suppress her skills, with each punch's force being terrifying, even a graze could peel off a layer of skin.
"Is he a fierce beast? Why is his ghost body so strong?"
"Such immense strength, and a glutton, maybe he's really the soul of a Taotie in human form!"
The ghosts were shocked, amazed by Su Xing's strength. Even standing outside the hall, they could feel the brutality of the battle, the aftereffects stinging their faces, making him one of the strongest Ghost Soldiers.
