Old Jack was clearly very patient with Tang San, in his heart, the most sensible child in the village was none other than this Tang San in front of him. It was really hard to imagine, how could that kind of father have such an obedient son.
"Great Soul Master is a Soul Master level title. Soul Master is our entire Douluo Continent's most noble profession, they can be formidable warriors, they can also have outstanding support abilities. But no matter what kind of Soul Master, the ranks are all arranged according to the same title. "
"Soul Master all have their own spirit power, according to the strength of the spirit power, altogether divided into ten big titles. Each title is further divided into ten ranks. The first to enter the sect is called Spirit Scholar, as long as the spirit awakens, everyone is a Spirit Scholar. If the spirit can be cultivated, when the spirit power reaches rank eleven, they will enter the next title, that is, Soul Master. And Great Soul Master, is the entire title sequence of the third. Reaching the Great Soul Master realm, is already a fairly formidable Soul Master. The overall ten titles are like this. "
"Spirit Scholar, Soul Master, Great Soul Master, Spirit Elder, Spirit Ancestor, Spirit King, Spirit Emperor, Spirit Sage, Hun Douluo and Title Douluo. Our Douluo Continent's name, comes from this. According to legend, after reaching rank ninety and above Title Douluo, they can give themselves a title, they are simply invincible existences! "
Eyes glittering with a proud radiance, "Our Holy Spirit Village produced an eighth rank title Spirit Sage a hundred years ago. In the entire Nuoding City, even in the entire Fasino Province, it is extremely rare. "
To the side, Tang Hao curled his lips, "Old Jack, that is only a legend, nothing more."
As if his reverse scale had been touched, old Jack flew into a rage, "What legend, legends also come from the truth. Tang Hao, you have already been in the village for six years, you should understand the position of that Spirit Sage in our hearts. If I hear you insult the Spirit Sage again, I'll banish you from the village. If it wasn't for Little San's sake, do you think I would be willing to come to your doghouse? "
However, Tang Hao was not angry. He was still hammering the farming tools in his hands, as if he did not hear Jack's words.
Jack glared at him fiercely, then said to Tang San, "In the future, don't be as decadent as your father. Alright, I'm leaving now. I'll come pick you up in three days."
After that, Old Jack stormed out of the blacksmith's shop.
"Dad," Tang San called.
"Hmm?" Tang Hao glanced at him coldly. Seeing the chill in his father's eyes, Tang San had to swallow back the words he wanted to say. Lowering his head, he returned to his room and continued to struggle with the ten thousand knocks.
Night fell. After dinner, Tang Hao wiped his mouth and walked out of habit. To him, this was just a routine, going out for a drink. Drinking the worst ale.
"Dad. Wait a moment. "Tang San did not have time to clean up the dishes and first called out to Tang Hao.
"What?" Tang Hao impatiently glared at him. Although Tang Hao had never hit Tang San, for some reason, Tang San was naturally somewhat afraid of this father. To him, who had lived two lives, he was unable to change this feeling.
"Then ten thousand knocks, I'm done forging." Tang San said.
"Oh?" The light in Tang Hao's eyes seemed to brighten a bit, "Let me see it."
"Okay." Tang San quickly ran back to his room. Soon, he ran out holding a piece of iron.
The iron was completely black. Although its shape was not regular, it looked like each section was extremely brilliant, with a faint black light. The whole iron was about one fourth the size of the original iron lump. Tang San used the Mysterious Heaven Skill to hold it without difficulty.
Tang Hao grabbed the black iron in his hand and put it in front of his eyes to look carefully, "Now do you understand what I said?"
Tang San nodded, "After a hundred tempering to make steel, the quality of the worst metal, after continuous forging and purification, will become high quality. Dad, are you going to tell me this truth? "
Tang Hao found that these days, his son seemed to bring him a lot of surprises. He returned the iron to him, "Then continue. When you forge it to the size of a fist, then show it to me. "After that, he turned around and walked out of the house.
According to his original words, he could teach Tang San forging after ten thousand knocks of the iron, but now he seemed to go back on his words. However, Tang San did not care about this. He was only thinking about what Tang Hao said.
"The size of a fist?" Such a big iron, could it really be forged to the size of a fist? Although it was only a quarter of the original volume, Tang San was very clear that, along with continuous forging, the density of the iron would become greater and greater. Shrinking the volume would also become more difficult. Wanting to forge it to the size of a fist was not something that could be done with ten thousand knocks.
After a hundred tempering to make steel, then what was ten thousand? A bright light flashed in Tang San's eyes. His feet slightly moved, his body already nimbly entered his room. Very quickly, the clanking sound of knocking once again resounded in the smithy.
Three days passed very quickly. Every morning, Tang San would go to the top of the mountain to do his routine homework. After returning home, besides cooking, he would forge. It could be considered as competing with that piece of pig iron. Every day the speed of the knocking increased. Mysterious Heaven skill helped him quickly recover his physical strength, and was able to maintain this unceasing forging process.
"Little San, grandpa has come to pick you up." Old Jack punctually arrived at the smithy. Perhaps because he was fed up with Tang Hao, this time he did not even go inside, only calling out to Tang San from outside.
Tang San glanced at his father who had just finished eating breakfast at his side. Tang Hao coldly said: "Go. Don't delay lunch. "
Tang San complied, then walked out of the smithy.
Under old Jack's guidance, Tang San followed him to the Martial Soul Palace at the center of the village. Of course, this so called Martial Soul Palace was only a large wooden house, nothing more.
Because everyone had a spirit, every year there would be children undergoing spirit awakening. Therefore, in any place on the Douluo continent, one could see the figure of Martial Soul Palace. Of course, these were only branch palaces, nothing more. Different levels.
This year there were altogether eight children undergoing spirit awakening in the Holy Spirit village. Under old Jack's guidance, Tang San was the last to arrive.
The children in the village all looked down on Tang San. Despising the poor and favoring the rich was not only among the nobility, but among the commoners this kind of situation was even more obvious. And Tang San had lived two lives, his actual age long ago exceeded thirty, naturally he was also unwilling to deal with these children. To him, if he had extra time, it would be better to use it for cultivation. Therefore, he did not have any childhood playmates.
Apart from village chief Jack and the eight children, there was also a youth in the Martial Soul Palace. This person appeared to be in his twenties, with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, his appearance was very handsome. Dressed in white, with a black cloak on his back. On the center of his chest, there was a fist-sized spirit character. This was the standard attire for direct subordinates of the Martial Soul Palace.
On the left chest, there was a badge engraved with a longsword. On the badge were altogether three longswords crisscrossing. People like Jack who were very familiar with the Soul Master knew that the number of three represented the Soul Master's third class title, Great Soul Master. And the longsword represented that this deacon from the Martial Soul Palace was a battle Soul Master.
"Hello, respected Battle Soul Maestro, this time I'll have to trouble you." Old Jack respectfully saluted the youth.
The youth's eyebrows revealed a faint arrogance. Neither saluting nor faintly slightly bowing, considered returning the salute, "I don't have much time, let's begin now."
Old Jack said: "Very well. Children, this is Battle Soul Maestro from Nuoding city. Next, he will guide you to awaken your spirits. You must cooperate well with Maestro to undergo spirit awakening. Grandpa is looking forward to one of you being able to become a Soul Master. "
The youth somewhat impatiently said: "Very well, last year you also said these few words. Is becoming a Soul Master really that easy? I've already passed through six villages, not a single person possessing spirit power. There's also no suitable spirit. "
Old Jack's eyes revealed a trace of sadness. Sighing, he said: "That's right! Only the inheritors of each major school can most easily become a Soul Master. It really is too difficult for us ordinary people. "While shaking his head, he walked out of the Martial Soul Palace.
The youth's gaze fell on the eight children in front of him. As a patrolling deacon of the Martial Soul Palace, helping ordinary people undergo spirit awakening was his necessary job. He had long since become accustomed to it. "Children, stand in a row." Towards these children, his attitude was much gentler.
The eight children stood in front of the youth, Tang San standing on the leftmost side. His stature compared to children of the same age, was a bit smaller.
The youth smiled: "I'm called Su Yuntao, a twenty-sixth ranked Great Soul Master. I'm your guide. Now, I will carry out spirit awakening for you one by one. Remember, no matter what happens, don't be afraid. "
While speaking, Su Yuntao opened his bag on the table to the side and took out two things: six jet-black round stones and a sparkling blue crystal ball.
Su Yuntao arranged the six black stones into a hexagon on the ground, then indicated the first child on the right to stand in it.
"Don't be afraid, close your eyes and carefully feel it." While speaking, Su Yuntao's eyes suddenly brightened. Under the children's shocked gazes, he shouted in a low voice, "Lone Wolf, body possession."
A wisp of faint cyan light was first released from the center of his eyebrows, following the space between his eyebrows all the way up, entering his hair bun.
Su Yuntao's hair was originally black, but after that cyan light entered, it instantly turned grey. Moreover, it quickly grew longer, and the same colored hair appeared on his exposed hands. At the same time, his body also seemed to expand a lot compared to before. His whole body was brimming with a sense of muscle.
The special clothes of the Martial Soul Palace were very elastic, and didn't burst because of his body's increase in size. Su Yuntao's eyes had already turned into a faint green, and the sharp claws extending from both hands flickered with a faint cold light. Two rings of light shone from his feet, unceasingly lingering from his feet to the top of his head. Among them one was white, and the other yellow. It was exceptionally strange.
The one he called black stone was a boy. Seeing Su Yuntao's body change, he immediately cried out in fear, "Ah — —" scared to run.
The oily green light in Su Yuntao's eyes was indeed frightening, and he grabbed that child, "Don't move. I said don't be afraid, this is my spirit, Lone Wolf. If one of you can become a Soul Master in the future, you will also use the same ability. "
The only one who couldn't be considered too afraid was Tang San, but when Su Yuntao's body changed, he immediately circulated his internal energy throughout his body.
Compared to astonishment, Tang San's heart was even more curious. Grey hair appearing on the body, green eyes, these really were wolf characteristics. Could it be that, after body possession, people would become wolves? No, that's not right, it should be possessing the abilities of wolves. Then, the occupation of Soul Master should be able to make better use of the abilities of one's spirit.
For the first time, Tang San discovered that he had developed an interest in the occupation of Soul Master. Right now, he was somewhat impatient to know what his spirit was.
Su Yuntao's hands quickly clapped, and six faint green lights poured into the six black stones on the ground. Immediately, a layer of misty golden splendor was released from the six stones, forming a faint golden light barrier that enveloped that child.
For some unknown reason, when the child who was still crying was enveloped by the faint golden light, he immediately calmed down and stood there somewhat lifelessly.
One by one, golden light floated out from the black stones on the ground, and then entered the boy's body.
The boy's body began to tremble slightly, and he wanted to cry out, but no sound came out.
"Stretch out your right hand." Su Yuntao's dark green eyes stared at the boy, and he sternly ordered.
The boy subconsciously stretched out his right hand, and immediately, all the light rushed out, and in an instant, a scythe appeared in his hand.
It seemed that the scythe wasn't an illusion, but a real existence.
Su Yuntao frowned, "It's a tool spirit. Can a scythe be used as a weapon? It should be barely. "
The golden light gradually disappeared, and the boy looked at the small scythe in his hand in shock, somewhat at a loss as to what to do.
Su Yuntao said, "Your spirit is a scythe, a tool spirit. Come, let me test whether you have spirit power or not. If you have spirit power, even if it's a tool spirit, you can still use it to fight Soul Master cultivation. After all, the scythe also has a certain amount of attack power. "
"Ma- Maestro, what should I do?" The boy timidly asked.
Su Yuntao indifferently said, "Use your thoughts to recall your spirit. In the future, if you want to use it again, you will also have to use your thoughts to summon it. "
The boy tried for a full half a day before withdrawing the scythe in his hand. Su Yuntao handed the blue crystal ball in front of him, indicating for him to place his right hand on it.
The boy's tender little hand and Su Yuntao's wolf claws were placed on top and bottom of the crystal ball, and the contrast was extremely obvious.
After a moment, Su Yuntao somewhat disappointed said, "No spirit power. You can't become a Soul Master. Go to the side first. "
The same scene continued to play out, and in succession, another five children's spirits awakened. Their spirits were some hoes, scythes, and other similar farming tools, not even a beast spirit appeared. As for spirit power, Su Yuntao also judged it to be 'none'.
It was the seventh child's turn, the last one before Tang San.
Su Yuntao seemed to be a little tired from using the wedding, but he still prepared to help these eight children complete the process of awakening.
The golden light gathered, and this time, it was finally no longer a farming tool, but a change occurred. A light blue blade of grass appeared in the girl's palm, gently swaying.
Tang San vaguely felt that he seemed to have seen this blue grass before. Very quickly, he remembered, this grass was called Bluesilver Grass, it could be seen everywhere in the village, just like the grass in his original world, apart from its tenacious vitality, it had no other use. Only because the girl was covered by a layer of faint golden light, he couldn't recognize it at a glance.
Although it wasn't a farming tool, the disappointment in Su Yuntao's eyes was even more obvious, "It's a trash spirit. No attack power, no defense, no auxiliary ability. Bluesilver Grass can be considered the standard form of a trash spirit. " While speaking, he followed the procedure and handed the blue crystal ball in front of the girl, as he expected, still no spirit power appeared.
Finally, it was Tang San's turn, without Su Yuntao saying anything, he already stepped forward to stand in the center of the six black stones.
Following Su Yuntao's six spirit powers, the faint golden light once again shone.
Warmth, this was the first feeling Tang San felt, his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a warm and harmonious world, indescribably comfortable. No wonder those children before when they were wrapped in this golden light, their emotions calmed down.
The warm aura permeated his body, Tang San clearly felt that his Mysterious Heaven Skill internal energy seemed to slightly fluctuate, following that, under the guidance of that warm energy, something in his body seemed to break, all the warm aura in a flash rushing towards his palm.
Su Yuntao's eyes suddenly lit up, because the number of golden dots that appeared in the golden light barrier this time was even more than the number of the previous children combined. He vaguely felt that, it seemed that a relatively strong spirit was about to appear. His excitement was overflowing.
For these people who were responsible for ordinary people's spirit awakening, if they could awaken a child with extraordinary potential and then pull him into the Martial Soul Palace, they could obtain a lot of evaluation benefits, it would be greatly beneficial for promotion.
But, very quickly, Su Yuntao was disappointed.
Tang San subconsciously raised his right hand, he saw that it was blue. This kind of blue, this was already the second time that this village's Martial Soul Palace had appeared today.
Bluesilver Grass, the same Bluesilver Grass as the girl from before. The standard existence of a trash spirit.
Su Yuntao helplessly said: "Another trash spirit, it seems that this time Holy Spirit Village also wasted their time in vain. Well, children, you can leave. " The previous appearance of a large number of golden light spots originally brought him great hope, but in the end it was unexpectedly only Bluesilver Grass, the feeling of disparity made Su Yuntao somewhat unhappy.
"Uncle, you still haven't carried out the spirit power test on me." Tang San saw that Su Yuntao was about to put away that blue crystal ball, and hurriedly reminded him.
Su Yuntao said without turning his head: "No need to test. Bluesilver Grass, this kind of trash spirit, I still haven't seen anyone with spirit power. "
"Let me try, Uncle." Tang San insisted. The warmth brought by the golden light as it circulated within his body brought a very strange feeling, that opened door made him feel that his Mysterious Heaven skill seemed to have undergone a subtle change. At the same time, he also very much wanted to know, what exactly was the difference between his internal energy and this world's spirits.
Su Yuntao stared blankly for a moment, then turned around, meeting Tang San's calm and somewhat firm gaze. In his heart he thought, this child seemed somewhat different.
"All right." Testing spirit power would not waste too much time. While speaking, he handed over the blue crystal ball before Tang San.
According to the method Su Yuntao had previously taught, Tang San controlled his Bluesilver Grass to withdraw into his body. He discovered, this was not difficult, as long as he followed the Mysterious Heaven skill's control, withdrawing his power, he could do it. At the same time, he also discovered, when the Bluesilver Grass appeared, it also seemed to be his Mysterious Heaven skill gushing out, as if that small blue grass was condensed from the Mysterious Heaven skill.
Just as his palm touched the blue crystal ball, Tang San's body trembled violently a moment, he was shocked to discover, that seemingly very beautiful blue crystal ball unexpectedly possessed a tremendous suction, his own internal energy as if finding a vent surged out violently. He wanted to struggle free, but was unable to escape that strong suction.
Equally surprised was Su Yuntao, just when he thought that this last spirit power test in Holy Spirit village was just a formality, suddenly, the blue crystal ball in his hand brightened, the dazzling blue light from the beginning spread in a flash, in the blink of an eye, this crystal ball was like a resplendent gemstone, sparkling with light. A faint blue halo was exposed, indescribably moving.
According to the traditional test, as long as the crystal ball showed a little reaction, even if it was just a trace of light, it proved that the testee had spirit power, and the blue crystal ball before his eyes was shining with such a dazzling light, there was only one explanation.
"Heavens, unexpectedly innate full spirit power." Blue light once again released from Su Yuntao's body, the crystal ball bounced off Tang San's palm, at this moment, he again looked at the boy before him with a completely different gaze. As if looking at a monster.
Tang San naturally also discovered that his and the other children's test situation was different, puzzled asked: "Uncle, what is innate full spirit power?"
Su Yuntao sluggishly looked at him, subconsciously explained: "Everyone when the spirit awakens, besides the spirit's form determining whether it is powerful, the amount of spirit power is also crucial. The majority of people when the spirit awakens do not have spirit power, just like these children before. They are doomed to be unable to become Soul Master in their lifetime. And as long as spirit power appears, even if it is only a trace, they can use meditation to carry out cultivation. And when the spirit awakens, the amount of spirit power is crucial, it determines the starting point of the Soul Master's cultivation, the higher the innate spirit power, the faster the acquired cultivation speed, at the same time, because the starting point is high, it is natural to be ahead of the others. The so called innate full spirit power, is when the spirit awakens, innately able to reach the highest spirit power. "
"Highest spirit power?" Tang San looked at Su Yuntao, his mind racing. He did not know what his spirit power was, but he was sure that the blue crystal ball responsible for the test was absorbing his Mysterious Heaven Skill inner force. Could it be that his inner force in this world had become spirit power?
Perhaps because Tang San's innate full spirit power brought a not small shock to Su Yuntao, he patiently explained: "Our spirit ranks are like this, every ten ranks is a title. As long as the spirit awakens, you can automatically be called a Spirit Warrior. Of course, it is only a first rank Spirit Warrior. According to the strength of the spirit power, it is divided into ranks. The so called innate full spirit power, after the spirit awakens, is able to reach the highest innate rank of the tenth rank. I have never met someone with innate full spirit power, when I first awakened, I was only at the second rank. "
At this moment, Tang San had already returned to his senses, it was not easy to find a true Soul Master, he naturally would not give up, hurriedly asked the doubt in his heart: "Innate martial spirit power can only reach the tenth rank? It can't be any higher? "
Su Yuntao's whole body's green light converged, withdrawing his spirit body enhancement: "Of course not. It wasn't easy to increase a soul master's strength. Every time you advance a title, not only must your spirit power reach the peak of the previous title, you also need to obtain a spirit ring at the same time. Without a spirit ring, no matter how hard you cultivate, it is impossible to advance to the next title. For example, like you now, because you have already reached innate full spirit power, so if you want to continue to increase your spirit power, it is not only meditation, but also must first obtain a spirit ring, after entering the next rank, only then can you continue to cultivate. "
Tang San suddenly said: "Spirit ring, is that the halo on your body just now? You are twenty sixth rank, so you have two spirit rings. "
Su Yuntao nodded, said: "Precisely so. Your situation is very special, innate full spirit power is a genius rarely seen in a hundred years. It is a pity, truly a pity. Unexpectedly it is a trash spirit. Even if your spirit is only a farming tool, it is still much stronger than the trash blue silver grass spirit. In that case, I can also … "
He did not continue, but Tang San vaguely understood what he meant. It was just that at this moment, the veil covering his heart seemed to have been lifted.
Tang San had always been a person who was good at thinking. He was like that in his previous life, and he was still like that in this life. According to what Su Yuntao had said, if his soul power was truly interlinked with his internal energy, then he would definitely be able to use it. Then, after coming to this world, the internal energy that he cultivated would become soul power, and the reason why his Mysterious Heaven Skill couldn't enter the second realm was because of that so-called soul ring. In other words, if he wanted to improve further, he would have to obtain a soul ring like the Soul Master. But what was a soul ring?
Tang San wanted to continue asking, but Su Yuntao had already picked up his bag and walked outside.
"Old Jack."
The door opened, and Old Jack welcomed Su Yuntao with a nervous face. "Maestro, how was it? Are there any children in our village who can become Soul Master this year? "
Su Yuntao looked at him, sighed, and said: "There is one, but it's a pity."
Jack's eyes revealed a bewildered and uncertain expression, and he probed: "Maestro, that is …"
Su Yuntao said: "Among the eight children this year, only one has soul power. Moreover, it's innate full soul power. Unfortunately, his martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Do you understand? "
"Blue Silver Grass? Innate full soul power? Heavens. "The disappointment on Jack's face was even more serious than Su Yuntao's. He had also been the village chief for so many years, and naturally understood what innate full soul power represented. But this innate full soul power appearing on the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, was really …
"Maestro, is there really no way to cultivate Blue Silver Grass?" Jack asked with a frown.
Su Yuntao could feel Old Jack's mood, and instead was not as arrogant as he was at the beginning. Patting Old Jack's shoulder, he said: "It's not completely impossible to cultivate. Only, do you think Blue Silver Grass will evolve along with the advancement of the martial soul? A trash martial soul is a trash martial soul in the end. Even if it becomes a Soul Master, I'm afraid it will still be a trash Soul Master. This innate full soul power is really a pity. Well, I'll leave first, I still have to go to the next village. "
In the end, Su Yuntao didn't wait for Tang San to continue asking, and left the village. Without Su Yuntao, Tang San could run in front of Jack, and ask the most urgent question he wanted to know. "Grandpa Jack, what is a soul ring? How can one obtain a soul ring? "
Old Jack seemed to still ponder over Su Yuntao's words, and subconsciously replied: "I also don't know what a soul ring is. If you want to obtain a soul ring, it seems you have to hunt and kill a soul beast. That is a very dangerous matter, and only a Soul Master would do it. "
