"..."
Ning Rongrong was about to say something when Ning Liu gestured for him to come over.
"Then, how can we prove that we are human?"
Ning Liu looked at the two men who were still trembling and asked in a calm tone.
"Just attach your Martial Soul and reveal your Soul Rings."
The man on the left blurted out, then cautiously added, "As long as you can show your true martial spirit and spirit rings, you can prove your identity."
"That simple?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Of course it's simple!"
The man on the right nodded vigorously, “Martial Soul and Soul Rings are absolutely impossible to forge; this is the most direct way to prove it.”
Ning Liu nodded and looked at his companions: "In that case, let's give it a demonstration."
"Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!"
Ning Rongrong was the first to release her martial soul. The dazzling Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda instantly appeared in her palm, radiating a warm light. Five soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, black, and black—slowly rose around her.
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!" Ning Liu also released his martial soul at the same time, and the same Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda appeared, but his soul ring configuration was even more amazing, with eight soul rings of yellow, yellow, black, black, black, red, red, red surrounding his body.
Xu Jiushi grinned: "Golden Black Tortoise!"
Instantly, a majestic golden phantom of a black tortoise appeared behind him, with two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red soul rings.
The others also released their martial souls one after another: Luo Li's Azure Tide Conch, Shi Han's Basalt, Jin Bupo's Purple Gold Axe, and Feng Wuhen's Wind Chasing Falcon, all of them were equipped with nine rings.
Bibi Dong and Chrysanthemum Douluo also displayed their respective martial souls and soul rings.
The two armored men were completely dumbfounded upon seeing this.
"Seven...seven Title Douluos?!"
The man on the left stammered, his voice trembling.
The man on the right pointed directly at Ning Rongrong and Ning Liu, his mouth agape but unable to utter a word.
"What's wrong?"
Ning Rongrong asked curiously.
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda... two Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Souls..."
The man on the right finally regained his voice, but it was trembling violently.
"What's going on?"
Ning Liu was also puzzled as to why these two people reacted so strongly when they saw their martial spirits.
The two men looked at each other, then knelt down with a thud.
"Greetings, Your Excellencies Oracles!"
The two spoke in unison, their voices filled with awe.
"The Oracle?"
Ning Liu frowned. "What do you mean by this?"
"Stand up and speak."
Ning Liu gestured for the two to stand up, "Tell us properly what exactly is going on here."
The two stood up, but maintained a respectful posture.
What does "oracle" mean?
Ning Liu cut to the chase and asked, "Also, what is a Sin Beast? Why can one identify it simply by having a Martial Soul possess and displaying Soul Rings?"
The man on the left took a deep breath and carefully explained, "The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul can only be possessed by the Oracle, representing the supreme Nine-Colored Goddess!"
"The Nine-Colored Goddess?" Ning Rongrong blinked.
"Yes!"
The man on the right continued.
"Legend has it that the Nine-Colored Goddess possesses the purest Nine-Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul and is the supreme being of the Nine-Colored Palace. The Oracle is the Nine-Colored Goddess's representative in the mortal world!"
"As for the beasts of sin..."
The man on the left continued to explain, "Sin Beasts are extremely dangerous beings; they do not possess true martial spirits."
"Sinful beasts are divided into different levels, from low to high: micro level, light level, medium level, strong level, giant level, annihilation level, and heaven level."
“Although the Sin Beasts can disguise themselves as humans, they cannot truly possess Martial Souls and Soul Rings. That’s how we distinguish them,” the man on the right added.
"I see."
Ning Liu nodded, having gained a basic understanding of the situation in this world.
"Who are you people? And how did you find this place?"
Ning Liu continued to ask.
"We are the guardians of the Nine-Colored Palace," the man on the left replied respectfully.
“Previously, the High Priest noticed spatial fluctuations here and was worried that a sinful beast had escaped, so he sent us here to search and confirm the situation.”
“Besides us, there are many other teams searching as well,” the man on the right added.
"The High Priest of the Nine-Colored Palace?" Ning Liu asked thoughtfully. "Could you take us to meet this High Priest?"
The two looked at each other, then nodded vigorously:
"Of course! It's perfectly normal for the Oracle to want to see the High Priest."
"Then please lead the way," Ning Liu said.
"Please come with us!"
The two said in unison, then turned and walked in one direction.
"Senior brother, this world is really strange," Ning Rongrong said softly as she walked beside Ning Liu.
"That is indeed very strange."
Ning Liu nodded. "But at least we know some basic information now."
"The term 'sinful beast' sounds dangerous." Xu Jiushi stroked his chin.
"However, I haven't done it in a long time, and my hands are itching to get started!"
"Brother Jiushi, don't be too careless."
Ning Liu cautioned, "A being that can make this world so tense must be extraordinary."
