Tang Wulin was also feeling different somehow. His connection with the Dragonslaying Saber had clearly grown stronger, but he couldn't tell exactly what had resulted in this; all that he could deduce was that the Dragonslaying Saber seemed to have already become a part of him.

The golden light lingered in the air for a full 10 minutes before the dragon patterns on the surface of the ma.s.sive Dragonslaying Saber finally began to fade. It then plummeted from above as a streak of golden light before plunging itself into the ground.

The golden light receded, and the Dragonslaying Saber warped slightly before returning to its human form. As soon as this humanoid figure appeared, both Tang Wulin and A'Ruheng's pupils contracted drastically.

Was this... really still Sima Jinchi?

He was tall and imposing, and he seemed to have become the core of the entire heaven and earth. Compared to the past Sima Jinchi, this new version of him seemed to have become over 10 years younger and returned to his early thirties. His tanned skin was s.h.i.+mmering with faint golden light, and his long golden hair was trailing down both sides of his face. His facial features looked as if they had been carved out of marble, and his pupils had also become vertical.

His muscles were filled with an artistic and graceful sense of power, and his aura was more concealed, rather than sharp as a blade as it had once been before. Nine soul rings rose up from beneath his feet before revolving around his body, and the most eye-catching one among them was his ninth soul ring. This was a golden soul ring, and all of his eight other soul rings completely paled into insignificance, as if they were mere accessories to that ninth soul ring.

”Holy c.r.a.p, you became more handsome, Sima! What happened? What kind of breakthrough was that?” A'Ruheng exclaimed in a slightly envious manner.

Sima Jinchi didn't offer any reply. His eyes were fixed on Tang Wulin, and there were complex emotions flas.h.i.+ng within them. Only after several seconds had pa.s.sed did he stride over to Tang Wulin before falling to one knee in a respectful manner. ”Master!”

Tang Wulin was given a fright by this and hurriedly sidestepped his respectful gesture. ”What are you doing, Brother Sima?”

Sima Jinchi was an extremely proud person, so why was he suddenly referring to Tang Wulin as ”master?”

Sima Jinchi explained in a respectful voice, ”There's no need to be alarmed, Master; I was only born into this world by your hands, so I owe my life to you. From this day forth, I will be your law-enforcing saber, and you can use me to sever all injustice, disloyalty, evil, and vanity in this world.”

Tang Wulin was feeling rather perplexed, but he could sense that this seemed to have something to do with the scenes that he had just witnessed earlier. Sima Jinchi definitely wouldn't refer to him as master for no reason, and it was quite clear that he had now progressed to the t.i.tled Douluo.

Furthermore, with his powers, he was definitely one of the most powerful t.i.tled Douluos on the entire continent. Even with Tang Wulin's confidence in his own abilities, he could sense that he most likely wasn't a match for Sima Jinchi anymore.

”Hmm? You're calling my junior disciple brother master, so you should call me master's senior disciple brother from now on,” A'Ruheng jibed with a sly smile.

Sima Jinchi rose to his feet and shot a glance at him. ”p.i.s.s off.”

”F*ck, you think you're a top sh*t now that you've made a breakthrough? Are you looking down on me? Let me see what you're like now that you're a t.i.tled Douluo,” A'Ruheng chortled as he threw a fist at Sima Jinchi.

The two of them were used to fighting one another, and neither of them were willing to concede to the other. Ever since A'Ruheng had progressed to the t.i.tled Douluo level, he had consistently been able to best Sima Jinchi. Now that Sima Jinchi had also progressed to the t.i.tled Douluo level, he was naturally extremely eager for a fight.

Sima Jinchi suddenly ducked down before ramming his shoulder toward A'Ruheng. In the instant that A'Ruheng's fist struck his shoulder, A'Ruheng was struck by the strange feeling that he had punched the edge of a blade rather than a human being.

The power of his congenital secret method erupted forth, and his fist abruptly expanded in size. Following a resounding boom, the two of them quickly separated before rapidly rus.h.i.+ng back.

They appeared to be evenly matched!

”Nice! Again!” A'Ruheng was extremely enthused, and he abruptly took a deep breath, following which his body instantly began to expand. With the span of just a few breaths, he had already reached over 10 meters in height. A metallic sheen glinted from his large bald head, and nine soul rings appeared around his body.

A powerful rumbling heartbeat rang out, and he immediately activated his martial soul's second awakening.

Golden light flashed from Sima Jinchi's vertical pupils, and he strode forward as the projections of nine giant dragons s.h.i.+mmered behind him. A ma.s.sive golden saber appeared out of thin air, and it was over five times larger than the original Dragonslaying Saber. He grabbed onto the hilt of the huge saber before slas.h.i.+ng it through the air, and a violent boom erupted as A'Ruheng was sent flying with golden light flas.h.i.+ng all over his body.

In contrast, Sima Jinchi's body merely swayed slightly, and he only had to take a couple of steps back before he steadied himself.
