Douluo: Lin Dong Travels Through Huo Yuhao

Chapter 14 I'll let you see, will you really do it?
"What? I have to read a book! Why is it so troublesome? Isn't there a way to directly pour information into my brain?"

Lin Dong followed Xuan Ziwen to the laboratory. After hearing Xuan Ziwen's suggestion that he go to the library to read when he has time, Lin Dong frowned and spoke.

After hearing this, Xuan Ziwen turned around and looked at Lin Dong with some confusion. Didn’t Dean Hong Chen say that this child had a very good character? How could he say such a thing?

Lin Dong looked at his eyes and immediately realized that his words were inappropriate. He quickly forced out an innocent smile:

"I was just kidding, teacher. I lost my parents when I was young, so I didn't have much education. Please don't mind me, teacher."

After seeing his clear eyes, Xuan Ziwen dispelled his doubts and showed some pity. He thought he was a poor child. Then he smiled softly and said:

"Haha, I also had this fantasy when I was a kid. If you really can't concentrate on reading, I can spend time teaching you by example, but the prerequisite is that you have to show enough value in training. You should understand this principle."

Lin Dong saw his look and nodded with confidence: "Okay, teacher, then please introduce the basic principles of soul guides first."

Xuan Ziwen was stunned after hearing this, but still nodded patiently. After a brief introduction of more than an hour, Xuan Ziwen handed Lin Dong a first-level soul guide and said softly:

"You study this most basic core formation first. I'll be busy for a while. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

Lin Dong nodded after hearing this, took the soul guide and began to think about it. With Xuan Ziwen's introduction, he had figured out the principle of this soul guide.

However, this thing seems to be much more troublesome than Tianxuan's refining weapon, and it has many disadvantages, but the advantage is that it does not require a high realm. Lin Dong sighed and murmured softly:

"Alas, this so-called soul power energy is too thin. I want to use Tianxuan's weapon refining method. I'm afraid I need to get to level 40 at least. Now let's see what the mystery of this soul guide is."

He then calmed his mind, picked up the soul guide and prepared to observe it carefully.

As a result, after just a glance, Lin Dong's expression froze instantly. After a long while, he slowly uttered a few words:
"It can't be that simple?"

If these words were heard by soul masters who have stayed in one realm for decades, they would probably not be able to bear the shock and their spiritual hearts would be shattered on the spot.

For Lin Dong, who had studied the Qiankun Ancient Formation in his previous life, he would probably be able to understand the core formation of a ninth-level or even tenth-level soul guide, let alone a first-level soul guide.

Lin Dong reacted instantly and realized that for him, this academy was truly a great place for cultivation.

Safety, respect, and national cultivation resources, all of which countless people dream of, are now in his hands.

But to be honest, there is probably not one person in the entire Douluo Continent who can become a soul engineer of the corresponding level as long as he reaches a high enough level like Lin Dong.

The complicated and obscure core magic array, as well as the wild and imaginative creativity, are the reasons why countless soul masters are stuck at one level and unable to move forward.

Lin Dong grinned: "Hehe, good stuff, I haven't practiced so easily in a long time."

The corner of his eye suddenly caught sight of the carving knife on the smooth laboratory table. He licked his lips excitedly, sat on the stool, and started to operate it.

About an hour later, Xuan Ziwen walked out of the laboratory covered in dust.

He still hadn't been able to solve the problem just now, and sighed a little frustrated, and suddenly noticed Lin Dong who was concentrating.

Seeing the beads of sweat on his resolute cheeks, Xuan Ziwen carefully glanced at the object carved by Lin Dong's carving knife, and a funny arc appeared at the corner of his eyes: This kid, I asked you to study soul guides, and you are here to play with carving?

Under Lin Dong's carving knife, there was a white metal plate with an extremely smooth surface. There was no core formation on that smooth surface.

Xuan Ziwen patted his forehead lightly, and said with a smile in his heart:
Xuan Ziwen, Xuan Ziwen, I think you are crazy about soul guide devices. How is it possible that someone who knew nothing about soul guide devices an hour ago suddenly developed a soul guide device now?

Just as he was about to look away, a beam of sunlight suddenly came through the window and hit the white metal plate in Lin Dong's hand. Xuan Ziwen looked closely and even his breathing stopped.

Just because under the illumination of that light, the outline of a formation slowly appeared on the white metal plate, Xuan Ziwen's heart was stirred up, and he murmured in his heart:
"No way, Xuan Ziwen, you are so lucky, a peerless genius! Did you really meet him?"

Thinking of this somewhat horrifying surprise, Xuan Ziwen stood there motionless.

He even deliberately suppressed his breathing and just stood there quietly, waiting for Lin Dong to finish carving without saying a word.

After about another hour, Xuan Ziwen noticed that Lin Dong's movements had slowed down a lot, and his breathing had unconsciously become faster.

He had never felt that time passed so slowly. In just less than an hour, Xuan Ziwen felt that it seemed like a century had passed.

Lin Dong raised his head, put down the carving knife, wiped the sweat from his forehead, grinned, stretched, and let out a long breath.

Only then did he notice Xuan Ziwen, who was looking expectantly at him, and smiled faintly:
"Teacher, when did you come? I was so engrossed just now that I didn't notice your teacher. Sorry."

Xuan Ziwen waved his hand nonchalantly, smiling, "This is not important. Haha, you were just carving the core formation of the soul guide, right? Can you let me see it?"

As he was about to walk towards Lin Dong, his feet suddenly felt weak. He suddenly realized that he was too nervous when he saw what was happening and even his feet were numb!
He slowly jumped in front of Lin Dong, and after seeing Lin Dong nod, he carefully picked up the white metal plate and examined its core formation for a long time.

Xuan Ziwen was shocked to find that he could not understand the formation drawn by Lin Dong. He rubbed his hands awkwardly and smiled at Lin Dong:

“Lin Dong, your soul guide is probably not an ordinary first-level soul guide. Why can’t I understand this formation?”

Seeing his eagerness to learn, Lin Dong had a playful smile on his face:

"Teacher, I remember that I didn't mention that this is a first-level soul guide, right?"

Lin Dong's light words fell into Xuan Ziwen's ears, but it made him feel like he was struck by lightning. He was stunned on the spot, and the entire laboratory fell into deathly silence.

After a long while, Xuan Ziwen came back to his senses from the shock and said in a trembling voice:

“Lin Dong, is that what you mean?”

Due to the huge shock, he did not have the courage to speak out that terrible guess. After seeing Lin Dong's affirmative look, he rushed forward excitedly, hugged Lin Dong and laughed:

"Hahaha, I found it! I finally found the one and only genius soul guide!"

Xuan Ziwen's ecstatic laughter echoed throughout the laboratory and lasted for a long time.
