Chapter 120: The Sacred Fire Breaks Through the Limit and Goes into Seclusion!
"Alright, my lightning isn't the strongest anyway."
As he spoke, a dense fire element power emerged from Hu Bai, and a large amount of fire element materialized around him. Hu Bai even opened his Sky Fox Domain to help gather more fire element energy.
"Heavenly Flame Funeral!"
Numerous scorching fireballs appeared in the air, falling rapidly toward Niu Gao.
This move was inspired by the urban magic novel Hu Bai referenced; it was a group attack skill, but the fireballs it condensed were enormous to a person. Encountering even one would cause significant damage.
Niu Gao, being good at defense, was a perfect test subject.
"Hey, hey, hey! Wait, wait!" Niu Gao looked at the incoming rain of flames and felt completely numb.
"Old Rhino, what are you still standing there for? With this Soul Skill, you absolutely can't block it using just your first three soul skills!" Yang Wudi shouted.
Meanwhile, Ling Yuan, who was with Qian Renxue, looked at the grand flame rain and murmured, "Is this the true power of an Extreme attribute? I can feel my Martial Soul trembling."
The attack unleashed by Hu Bai was clearly incomparable to the casual Lightning Dragon from before.
As mentioned earlier, a Soul Master with an Extreme attribute, as long as they have sufficient soul power in the early stages, can at least fight across two major stages and still win!
At Hu Bai's current Soul Elder realm, the erupting flame rain was already capable of threatening a Soul King!
Oh no, it should be said that it could already threaten a defense-type Soul King!
Niu Gao used his first five defensive skills, but faced with the increasingly close flame rain that locked onto him, he still felt a chill in his heart. He gritted his teeth fiercely and thought, 'Damn it, I'm going to lose face in front of the Old goat and Old White Bird today!'
The next moment, the seventh soul ring, symbolizing a Soul Saint, rose from Niu Gao, and he directly unleashed his Martial Soul True Body!
A massive, forty- to fifty-meter-tall armor-plated rhinoceros appeared before everyone's eyes, and the flame rain now looked like mere sparks to him.
Niu Gao originally thought it was foolproof, but when these sparks truly landed on his skin, there was still a very strong burning sensation—it was painful!
Yang Wudi shook his head and smiled. "Look, Old White Bird, see how scared the old rhino is? He even used his Martial Soul True Body, hahaha—"
Bai He's mouth twitched. "Why don't you go take it?"
Yang Wudi: Hehe — No, he didn't say it aloud.
Asking him to directly take that move? Was that a joke?
A moment later, Niu Gao exited his Martial Soul True Body and shouted, "No more! I admit I can't beat you. Your Soul Skill is too abnormal! And this is your self-created Soul Skill—I see you didn't even use a soul ring…"
Hu Bai showed a hint of disappointment. "Is that all? I actually have an even more powerful move I wanted to try—a new self-created Soul Skill—and I wanted to test its power using Senior Niu Gao's defense."
Niu Gao: ...
"Cough, cough. Can you tell me what your newly developed Soul Skill is like?" Niu Gao asked tentatively.
"Oh, it's nothing much, just attribute fusion. Senior Niu Gao, take a look."
As he spoke, Hu Bai condensed a red lotus in his left hand and a white lotus in his right.
The two lotuses were formed by Extreme Fire and Extreme Ice, respectively—one scorching hot, the other icy cold—and both were filled with extremely strong, destructive power!
Niu Gao's eyelids twitched violently. The aura emitted by these small lotuses was enough to make a Soul Ancestor's eyes go dark. This kid wanted to fuse these two attributes?
Holy cow!
"Are you sure you can do it? You want to fuse these two attributes? Are you sure there won't be a conflict?"
Hu Bai: "I can try. As long as my mental power is strong enough, there shouldn't be a problem. Senior Niu Gao, would you like to try?"
Niu Gao shook his head vigorously. "Forget it, forget it. My defense is strong, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt. I don't have a masochistic tendency."

One month later, at Spirit Hall.
The three single-attribute sects had all submitted. Yang Wudi of the Breaking Clan, along with his younger brother Yang Wushuang and a group of core disciples, secretly arrived at Spirit Hall to conduct medicinal pill research and refinement.
The Speed Clan was not needed for the time being. Bai He brought a group of core disciples to the Spirit Hall army for training, preparing for subsequent missions.
The Defense Clan began to use their knowledge to modify some areas of Spirit Hall.
This month, Hu Bai's cultivation improved again, reaching rank thirty-seven.
However, it couldn't compare to Qian Renxue's rapid progress. The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng obtained from Bai He had already been absorbed by Qian Renxue.
Her soul power directly broke through from rank fifty-three to rank fifty-six!
The combined medicinal effects of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng and the Yearning Heartbroken Red increased Qian Renxue's rank by three!
This was a three-level increase at the Soul King rank, already incredibly impressive!
And this wasn't the biggest improvement for Qian Renxue.
The greatest was that her Angelic Flame had also advanced to Extreme Fire because of this!
At this moment, Qian Renxue possessed two Extreme attributes: Extreme Light and Extreme Fire.
As for her main attribute, the Sacred attribute—strictly speaking—was also Extreme, but labeling it as such would seem strange.
After all, the Sacred attribute itself has an absolute suppressive effect on fallen evil Soul Masters, and adding another Extreme wouldn't make much difference.
Moreover, while Sacred and Light attributes are not identical, they are intertwined and inseparable.
However, although Qian Renxue's attributes reached two Extremes, a downside also appeared: dual Extremes meant her cultivation speed slowed again.
Although she would see a leap at level seventy, she was still fourteen levels away from that.

Behind Spirit Hall.
Qian Renxue embraced Hu Bai, and Hu Bai could clearly feel her soft mounds. She held him very tightly, as if she wanted to fuse him into her body.
"Xiao Bai, I'm afraid I'll have to go into seclusion for a while. I was planning to go out and train with you all, but my cultivation speed is too slow now. During this time, grandpa will teach me how to use mental power to accelerate my cultivation."
After Qian Renxue released Hu Bai, she looked at him with great reluctance. "If you don't see me during this time, will you miss me?"
Although Qian Renxue was just over ten years old, she had already grown into a graceful young woman. Her development had been accelerated by the soul ring's enhancement, and she was already stunningly beautiful.
Of course, Hu Bai's changes were also significant; he had already outgrown the category of a small shota. After all, people always grow, and he was nearly one meter five tall—only a head shorter than Qian Renxue.
