"Thunder Emperor's Tremoring Might Rupture?"

Tang San and the other two murmured the name under their breaths once more.

Just from the literal meaning, they could already tell this soul skill was anything but ordinary.

"This soul skill grants me a 100% strength enhancement. Following that, it's a shocking, destructive attack skill that utilizes lightning and dragon-might."

"The enhancement to my strength attribute isn't overwhelming, but the actual intensity of the soul skill is directly proportional to the strength of my dragon-might and mental strength. It's a powerful attack that coordinates physical strength, technique, and mental strength all at once."

"Its destructive power can easily shatter the atmosphere, shatter the sky... and who knows? In the future, maybe it can even shatter space itself."

"Shatter space?"

Tang San was instantly stunned.

A method like shattering space was not a move he, a transmigrator from a martial arts world, could easily imagine. It seemed this Douluo Dalu continent wasn't quite as weak as he thought. The true powerhouses still possessed devastating methods.

Amidst his shock, Tang San secretly reinforced his mental resolve.

Fortunately, right from the very beginning, he had planned to hide behind Xiao Lin, keeping a low profile while quietly developing his strength.

"Shatter space?"

Tang Ni and Xiao Wu, however, were not that shocked.

If someone really wanted to possess the means to forcibly shatter space, even if it was Xiao Lin, he would probably need to be at the level of a Titled Douluo.

Furthermore, Tang Ni was internally calculating whether Di Tian had the ability to shatter space. But in the end, even Tang Ni couldn't figure it out. So, she chose to stop thinking about it altogether.

As for Xiao Wu, she was completely uninterested. She was a pure mechanics monster. She possessed skills like Invincible Golden Body, Teleportation, and Limbo.

In the future, she would even have skills like Void and Intangibility. To her, the power of space really wasn't that difficult to comprehend. At most, she just didn't rely on brute force to break through it.

Right now, Xiao Lin could no longer wait to test out his two great soul skills.

There was also a hundred-thousand-year left leg bone that Xiao Lin wanted to absorb and fuse with. Generally speaking, soul bones for both legs provided a boost in speed, while soul bones for both arms enhanced strength.

When it came to a speed-type soul skill, Xiao Lin believed that the one provided by the Thunder Emperor Dragon would definitely not be lacking. On another note, regarding breaking through space, Xiao Lin had actually been bragging a bit.

In this Douluo Dalu world where one had to become a Titled Douluo just to fly, that level of power would only amount to a mere Dou Wang in the Battle Through the Heavens world.

If one wanted to break through space and proficiently utilize spatial skills, wouldn't they need to be at least a Dou Zong powerhouse?

If Xiao Lin could shatter space with a single punch by the time he reached the Titled Douluo realm, then he estimated that even Gods wouldn't be his match.

Dou Zong powerhouses were still truly formidable—horrifyingly so.

Wait, why would he use his fists to break through space?

Even though he possessed an Innate Tool Soul Avatar Physique, and the enhancements from his Horned Dragon Staff could be transferred to his actual body, the base attributes of the Horned Dragon Staff were still higher than his own.

If he used the Horned Dragon Staff to unleash the Thunder Emperor's Tremoring Might Rupture, he might actually be able to shatter space during his time as a Titled Douluo. Moreover, up until this point, Xiao Lin suddenly realized he had been too foolish.

What exactly had he been doing in his previous battles? He had been using soul skills to enhance himself—why hadn't he enhanced the Horned Dragon Staff instead?

Setting aside Heaven and Earth Toss for a moment, the Comet Star Strike was the same. But why hadn't he applied Flowing Shadow Lightning Flash and Blazing Heart to the Horned Dragon Staff?

If the Horned Dragon Staff struck down, unleashed lightning, and left behind an afterimage, then the afterimage and the Horned Dragon Staff would attack together. Whether it was a vertical chop or a horizontal sweep, it would be a two-stage attack.

Even if the enemy managed to dodge the first strike, could they dodge the second? Then, how would they block the third or fourth strike?

Xiao Lin's physical conditioning allowed him to unleash multiple Flowing Shadow Lightning Flashes consecutively, so the Horned Dragon Staff would only be even stronger. Blazing Power was the same, relying on the indestructible durability of the Horned Dragon Staff.

Would the Horned Dragon Staff be unable to withstand the soul-core version of Blazing Power? Of course not!

This way, Xiao Lin wouldn't even need to use his Tool Soul Avatar to reinforce his own body just to endure the strain, thereby saving a massive amount of soul power.

In a sudden flash of inspiration, Xiao Lin realized where his problem lay.

This was an issue that even Tang San, a martial arts prodigy, hadn't noticed and thus failed to remind him about. Perhaps it was because Xiao Lin was already strong enough even when fighting with his old, inefficient habits.

However, this was still an oversight on Xiao Lin's part, or rather, a result of his ingrained instincts.

Compared to the native residents of this world, Xiao Lin placed far greater importance on tempering his physical body and mental strength. For some reason, he had always firmly believed that true strength lay within oneself.

This mindset likely stemmed from his past life. Because he had fought this way over and over again, he had actually forgotten his greatest asset—a Horned Dragon Staff that was not a single bit inferior to a Divine Tool.

I'm sorry, Horned Dragon Staff. There won't be a next time.

Having finally figured out his optimal fighting style, Xiao Lin corrected his approach immediately.

Meanwhile, inside Xiao Lin's consciousness space.

Ever since the Thunder Emperor Dragon entered Xiao Lin's consciousness, he hadn't experienced the slightest bit of discomfort.

There was absolutely no danger of his consciousness fading away; in fact, under the nourishment of the Horned Dragon Staff's soul power, his conscious soul had actually become more stable. The only problem was that his status in this place was at the absolute bottom of the food chain.

Even though the two Great Dragon Kings had shrunken their sizes as much as possible, they were still five to six times larger than the full-sized Thunder Emperor Dragon.

It made the Thunder Emperor Dragon feel like a newborn hatchling in comparison. Furthermore, the teasing and joking from the two Great Dragon Kings made him feel incredibly awkward.

Only now did he realize he had been tricked.

It turned out that those Soul Spirit-like soul beasts of Xiao Lin's had simply had their consciousnesses preserved by the Horned Dragon Staff after Xiao Lin beat them to death. For those soul beasts to truly recover, Xiao Lin would have to become much stronger.

In other words, for the time being, he was still the lowest rung on the ladder.

However, this environment wasn't without its perks.

He had finally come to understand the true background of the two Great Dragon Kings. They were Dragon Kings from the same era as the legendary Dragon God—essentially the Dragon God's direct sons!

To him, they were legendary powerhouses among powerhouses. If the two Great Dragon Kings offered him even a sliver of guidance in his cultivation, surpassing his own father in the future would be a walk in the park.

As for the current strongest dragon on the continent, the Thunder Emperor Dragon actually knew a thing or two about him. Even Di Tian was nothing more than a minor figure compared to these two.

In the future, he too would become a God, surpassing his father and surpassing Di Tian. Just as the Thunder Emperor Dragon was completely immersed in his grand fantasies, he was jolted awake by Xiao Lin's voice.

"Thunder Emperor Dragon, I'll call you Lei Lei from now on. In the future, you'll be my First God Officer once I ascend to Godhood."

Xiao Lin was busy painting a grandiose future for him before asking curiously, "By the way, Thunder Emperor Dragon, what is your soul bone skill? Tell me about it."

"Lei Lei?"

The Thunder Emperor Dragon's face instantly darkened.

He transformed into his human form and paced around the sea of consciousness (protected by the Horned Dragon Staff, he was unaffected by the Ultimate Ice and Fire).

As a junior, the Thunder Emperor Dragon didn't dare to rebel against Xiao Lin in front of the two Great Dragon Kings. In the end, he could only puff out his chest and state his soul bone skill with an air of pride.

"My soul bone skill?"

"My soul bone skill is my ultimate offensive technique. It's called the Thunder-Rifting Spatial Flash. Its effect is to instantly unleash a devastating thunderbolt destruction attack, piercing through the air to execute high-speed movement."

"Its speed is slightly faster than a falling lightning strike. Don't look down on it just because it's a high-speed movement skill. It's actually incredibly powerful when used for offense, as it carries a profound lightning destruction attribute."

"Not bad."

Xiao Lin was highly satisfied with this soul skill.

As long as it carried the destruction attribute, it already exceeded his expectations.
