Chapter 64: Can You Make Use of It?_1

A figure quickly descended in front of Xu Sheng, it was none other than Gu Rong, standing upon nine soul rings, staring intently at Xu Sheng!

Xu Sheng shifted his gaze from the soldier and spoke with a chilly tone, "Gu Rong??"

Gu Rong, hearing that this aloof man with a somewhat bewitching appearance knew his name, narrowed his eyes, "Oh? Kid, you actually know my name?"

The soldier who had been kneeling on the ground saw Gu Rong arrive, and getting up joyfully from the ground, he said, "Bone Douluo has come; everyone, retreat first!"

Thereafter, the soldiers who had surrounded Xu Sheng quickly picked up their dropped weapons and ran towards the rear...

The onlookers, upon seeing the horrifying nine soul rings under Gu Rong's feet...

"What? This gentleman is actually a Title Douluo-level terrifying powerhouse! I'm afraid that young kid won't escape death!"

"Bone Douluo seems to be the Protecting Sect Elder of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect! With a fearsome cultivation level of 95, and the title of being first in defense isn't for nothing!!"

"Who would have thought I could see a Title Douluo-level powerhouse from such a close distance, my life is complete!"

However, thinking of a Title Douluo's unpredictable temper, they all retreated dozens of meters, fearing they might be affected by the attack.

An attack of that level, even with dozens of lives, they couldn't withstand!

...

"Since you are here, Sect Master Ning must be here too, right?"

Xu Sheng glanced ahead, his gaze landing on Ning Fengzhi, who was being protected by countless soldiers and holding a wand...

However, when he caught sight of an extremely handsome man next to Ning Fengzhi, he thought to himself, "Could that be Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe?"

On the other side, Gu Rong's expression turned cold upon hearing Xu Sheng's words...

This guy knew about Feng Zhi; could it be that his purpose was to assassinate the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect?

In that case, there was no need for him to hold back...

The next moment, his figure exploded into action, charging directly at Xu Sheng with a fist aimed at his head...

Xu Sheng, with a speed not inferior to Gu Rong's, nimbly dodged the incoming fist by tilting his head, then took a step back and said indifferently, "Oh? Not using a soul skill?"

So Gu Rong wasn't using a soul skill, thinking he could settle him with physical strength alone?

Taking a deep breath and watching Xu Sheng closely, Gu Rong wondered in amazement, "This kid, he can dodge my attacks with mere reflexes..."

"To deal with a junior like you, there's no need to use soul skills!" Gu Rong bellowed coldly and charged at Xu Sheng once again...

Xu Sheng's lips curled up, and with a clench of his hand, countless vines of the Nine-Hearted Begonia rose up from the ground in an instant, and the unsuspecting Gu Rong was bound on the spot...

He did not have so much patience; since Gu Rong had spoken with such certainty, he couldn't let him down, could he?

Moreover, there was still an old score yet to be settled... This time, consider it interest!

In mid-air, with his left hand and right leg bound, Gu Rong quickly gathered soul power in his right hand, and hammered a fist towards the crimson vines of the Nine-Hearted Begonia...

However, when his attack hit the Nine-Hearted Begonia, it only created a few cracks between the vines, without any sign of them breaking...

Gu Rong frowned silently, striking several more times, but still failing to break them...

"Damn it, what kind of Martial Soul is this? It can actually defend against my attacks!"

Although his main strength was defense as a Title Douluo, and his attack was lower by Title Douluo standards, it wasn't something just anyone could withstand!

Gu Rong's gaze turned to Xu Sheng, "Kid... I'm telling you..."

His words suddenly came to an abrupt halt; what did he see?

There were nine black, pitch-black soul rings emerging beneath this man's feet...

Gu Rong's heart shook, astonished he declared, "What? This kid is actually a Title Douluo! And... nine Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, could it be he is that one from back then..."

He looked again at the plants binding him and saw the Nine-Hearted Begonia, entirely crimson and extremely tough...

"So that's it, this is the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul that Chen Xin mentioned to me!"

No wonder... no wonder it could defend against my attacks!

So this kid is Xu Sheng, the one who was with Ning Rongrong in the Sunset Forest back then!

After realizing this, he quickly reached out, trying to tell Xu Sheng that it was a misunderstanding...

However, Xu Sheng's expression turned cold, and he directly used the Nine-Hearted Begonia to fling Gu Rong into the air...

The startled Gu Rong, who was flung into the air, glared and cursed, "Fuck! You... brat... ah ah ah!"

Xu Sheng, with an icy face, lit up the first soul ring at his feet, "First Soul Skill! Bloody Begonia Blossom!"

Countless petals of the Nine-Hearted Begonia burst forth from Xu Sheng's palms, these petals carrying sharp attacks that shredded at Gu Rong in the air...

The countless Nine-Hearted Begonia petals crazily slashed at Gu Rong's body, continuously making a "crack crack..." sound.

Bound in mid-air, Gu Rong felt a faint sensation of being cut and was surprised, "It's just petals! Yet they can so easily slice through my skin!"

Although Xu Sheng's first soul skill seemed rather useless, its greatest feature was its ability to break defenses!

The helplessly shredded Gu Rong sighed, "Enough, enough, let's just consider this as making up for my previous wrongs against him, let him vent..."

Thinking the attacks were no harm to him anyway, he paid them no attention...

Seeing Gu Rong's non-resistance, Xu Sheng knew this guy must be underestimating him...

He coldly said from the corner of his mouth, "Foolish!"

Your defense may withstand attacks! But can it withstand poison?

In the last battle with Chen Xin, if it hadn't been for the latter's sealing type soul skill!

Even if I had lost, Chen Xin would have undoubtedly died from the poison!

Subsequently...

Xu Sheng's fifth soul skill lit up beneath his feet once more, Bloody Poison Begonia!

Gu Rong, unable to move in the air, felt a sense of ominous dread rising from the depths of his heart when locked on by Xu Sheng's fifth soul skill...

Especially when watching Xu Sheng's palm aiming at him, Gu Rong, for some reason, felt few drops of cold sweat on his forehead...

He shook his head, warning, "No! There's something wrong with this guy's attack!"

"Psst psst~" Green Nine-Hearted Begonias continuously sprouted out from his limbs...

Seeing the plants emerging from his own limbs, Gu Rong felt confused.

But in the next moment, a severe sense of dizziness rapidly overwhelmed his mind...

Dammit! This is a poison soul skill!

"I can't resist with my body anymore! Seventh Soul Skill! Bone Dragon True Body!"

Gu Rong roared angrily, and the seventh soul ring beneath him shone fiercely, his body revealing countless bone-like structures that began to gather power and swell...

Even the highly resilient tendrils of the Nine-Hearted Begonia started to show signs of rotting...

Xu Sheng, who had already anticipated Gu Rong's move, lit up the sixth soul ring at his feet once again...

Bloody Mang Dream Mirror!

"Can you use it?"
