Douluo: I am an evil soul master, working from nine to five in the Tang Sect

Chapter 117 Evil Soul Master

"Treasure Pavilion..."

Luo Chen had long been coveting this trading venue established by Shrek Academy, which is open to all Shrek Academy students.

You have to know that there are many treasures in it, such as elixirs that can enhance one's physical fitness without side effects, or spiritual power, as well as soul bones of various soul beasts. Even a Titled Douluo at the Nine-Ring level would be dazzled!

For the Titled Douluo who now stands at the top of the continent, ordinary elixirs and natural treasures can not improve him much. Only the soul bones that are rarely seen in ordinary times can make his own strength leap again!
However, soul bones also vary in quality and age. The higher the quality and age, the greater the improvement they can bring to the soul master. For example, a thousand-year soul bone can provide the soul master with a soul skill and enhance his or her physique, but for the soul master, it is equivalent to absorbing another thousand-year soul ring.

For soul masters below the fifth ring, the improvement brought by absorbing the thousand-year soul bone is indeed huge. However, for soul masters above the fifth ring, the thousand-year soul bone is a bit useless. Apart from being able to enhance their own physical fitness and soul power limit, the other improvements it brings can even be ignored.

The improvement of most thousand-year soul bones is far more important than that of an ordinary ten-thousand-year soul bone. After all, being able to fuse a ten-thousand-year soul bone is equivalent to adding a soul bone skill to the soul master that is no weaker than the ten-thousand-year soul skill. The improvement is much greater than that of a thousand-year soul bone.

Even if one can fuse a high-quality soul bone at a low level, then this can even enable the soul master to achieve cross-level absorption of soul rings, or the evolution of martial souls, thus greatly improving the soul master's cultivation ceiling.

This is also the reason why soul bones are so rare in the market, and were even once passed down from generation to generation by major families as "heirlooms", because any high-quality soul bone can enable the soul master's own strength to achieve a qualitative leap.

If a sect that already has a powerful inherited martial spirit really possesses such a high-quality spirit bone, then it can even continuously cultivate generations of powerful spirit masters, making the sect prosperous for a long time.

Such situations have occurred many times in the history of Shrek Academy. After the death of the elders in the academy, their soul bones would be used as the foundation of the academy, and would either be sent to the Treasure Pavilion or left deep in the Poseidon Pavilion.

The soul bones or natural treasures that are left behind will be used as food for the core disciples trained by the academy to advance, so as to cultivate generations of powerful soul masters, which is similar to the way the major ancient sects cultivate geniuses.

However, what Shrek Academy really values ​​is the overall quality of the students themselves. Even if a talented student is able to enter the inner courtyard, he or she may not necessarily be the focus of training at the academy. After all, there are quite a few geniuses in Shrek Academy.

Only talented students who are truly valued by the elders can hold a Poseidon Pavilion meeting in the Poseidon Pavilion to decide whether to focus on their training in the academy.

It can be said that the Treasure Pavilion established by Shrek Academy was set up just for this type of talented students. The treatment of these students who are the focus of the academy in the Treasure Pavilion is also different from that of other students.

The most capable ones can even take away any treasure from the Treasure Pavilion every year for free, without having to take out a loan or pay for it. This is something Shrek Academy has implemented for this type of talented students after several discussions and ideas.

For Shrek Academy itself, the reason why it spends so much resources and even trains these soul master geniuses for free is not only for these students, but also for the academy itself.

Although Shrek Academy itself is just an academy, this is its public identity. As an academy, it is neither a sect nor an empire, and it does not have any status conflicts on the continent.

But secretly, Shrek Academy has always been the backbone of the fight against evil soul masters. However, only a very small number of students in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy know about these things.

It is precisely because the academy is involved in many things in secret that it needs to train one powerful soul master after another to fight against these forces from all sides.

For Shrek Academy, although on the surface it is only cultivating talented soul masters on the continent, in secret, Shrek Academy has always been the strongest and most powerful force in maintaining order on the continent and balancing the major forces.

There are many empires on this continent, and where there are rulers there are naturally wars. Thousands of years ago, when the Sun-Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent collided with each other, if there had not been Shrek Academy to maintain a balance in the middle, then perhaps the war would still be going on until now.

It is precisely because of the existence of Shrek Academy, an academy that does not belong to any force, that this continent can be so stable and peaceful.

It can be said that in the history of this continent, it was the establishment of Shrek Academy that indirectly balanced a group of ambitious and aggressive rulers and dispelled their thoughts of expanding their territory and conquering towns.

However, any strong person who has a certain understanding of the situation on the continent knows that the war can be stopped, but it will not disappear. Before there is a real force that can sweep away everything and build order on this continent, the role that Shrek Academy can play is only to reconcile and ease the situation.

If something unexpected happened on the continent, leading to another outbreak of war between empires, then with the soul-guided technology weapons that have been studied to an extremely high level and the power accumulated in Shrek Academy today, it would be impossible to stop the war.

Shrek Academy also knew that if something unexpected really happened on the continent, causing war to break out again between empires, then the instigator of this unexpected event would be none other than the evil soul masters who had been roaming among the major empires for a long time.

Therefore, in order to avoid such accidents from happening, Shrek Academy has been putting pressure on the evil soul masters and establishing connections with the major empires. Once a disaster like the evil soul masters occurs, Shrek Academy will send reinforcements depending on the situation.

However, given the power of evil soul masters and their almost unpredictable means of attack, even a powerful soul master from Shrek Academy would inevitably suffer damage, and getting injured is almost a common occurrence.

In the past, in order to eliminate a powerful evil soul master who had reached the nine-ring Titled Douluo realm, Shrek Academy had even lost dozens of students and teachers. In the end, it was only with the joint efforts of many elders who were also at the Titled Douluo level that they were able to successfully eliminate him.

It can be said that the reason why Shrek Academy set up the Inner Court and even opened the Treasure Pavilion to these students and trained many soul master geniuses free of charge was almost all for one purpose, to fight against the evil soul masters who had been accumulating strength in secret and to maintain order and stability on the continent.

This is the position of Shrek Academy on this continent, to balance the major forces on the continent, stabilize the situation on the continent, and eradicate the evil forces that endanger the continent.

Unfortunately, even though Shrek Academy has never slacked off, it still cannot completely stop the evil spirit masters from harming the continent. Perhaps other sects or forces on the continent are still unaware of this, but for the senior members of Shrek Academy, this is no secret.

Just as they have been eradicating the forces of evil soul masters for the sake of stability on the continent, evil soul masters also have their own forces, large and small.

Before Shrek Academy dealt with the problem of evil soul masters so vigorously, the evil soul masters on the continent were mostly scattered and not as concentrated as they are now.

But at a certain moment, an evil soul master who reached the Titled Douluo level was suddenly born. After he killed dozens of teachers and students of Shrek Academy in a row, Shrek Academy began to truly take the issue of evil soul masters seriously.

During this period of time, whenever Shrek Academy received any news about evil soul masters, it would immediately send out strong men from the academy to eliminate them.

It was precisely because Shrek Academy had carried out such a large-scale campaign to eradicate the evil soul masters causing chaos in various places that a group of evil soul masters who were supposed to act alone gradually learned to stick together for warmth, and even formed organizations and learned to accumulate strength in secret.

And this is what Shrek Academy is really worried about. Once the evil soul masters learn to stick together, then under the leadership of the powerful evil soul masters, a group of weak evil soul masters will also grow rapidly in a very short period of time.

Even though Shrek Academy has been cultivating soul master geniuses all along and training these geniuses into truly powerful people who can stand on their own, the growth rate of these so-called geniuses through normal training is completely incomparable to that of evil soul masters who grow up through various unconventional means.

The most important thing is, after being wiped out several times by Shrek Academy and the forces of the major empires and suffering great losses, the evil soul masters have learned to develop in secret and no longer show themselves on the continent. They are like ghosts and are difficult to find.

Today, Shrek Academy has established an inspection team specifically targeting the evil soul masters on the mainland. Every time they deal with an evil soul master incident, they only face some "wild" evil soul masters who have not joined the organization.

After Shrek Academy dealt with the disasters brought by evil soul masters time and time again, the continent did gradually calm down. However, this kind of calmness made the powerful warriors who had been on the battlefield for a long time more uneasy than usual, but they were helpless.

Although Shrek Academy has not taken action against the evil soul masters for a long time, all the elders in the academy know that the evil soul masters have not been eradicated, but have become more powerful than before.

However, even though a group of elders had been trying their best to search, they could not find any clues about the evil soul master. It was as if the evil soul masters who had been doing evil on the continent in the past had now disappeared out of thin air.

However, after the Dark Holy Dragon reappeared in the Star Dou Great Forest, the only two strong men in Shrek Academy, Moon and Xuan Zi, also realized that the evil soul masters today are more terrifying than before.

No one had expected that such an Extreme Douluo who had been so powerful on the continent and stood at the pinnacle of the soul master world would actually degenerate into an evil soul master and become one of the evil soul masters.

In Luo Chen's guess, it was because of Long Xiaoyao's appearance that caused Old Lin, who was supposed to be traveling among the major empires on the continent, to suddenly turn back at this moment.

This also indirectly brought a message to Luo Chen, that is, in places that he had not noticed, undercurrents might have already surged.

"Is it because of me that the butterfly effect was triggered, causing the Holy Spirit Church to take action in advance..."

At this moment, Luo Chen had a lot of thoughts in his mind. He kept thinking about what Old Lin had just said. Since the other party was a Super Douluo at level 97, he must be a powerful man with a lot of experience. It was not surprising that he knew Long Xiaoyao.

But what Luo Chen didn’t understand was, since the other party already knew that Long Xiaoyao had fallen into an evil soul master, then why did the other party have the confidence to dare to make such a promise to Luo Chen? Could it be that the other party had secretly discussed it with Long Xiaoyao or Moon En?

The more Luo Chen thought about it, the more confused he felt. He hated riddlers the most in his life. They said they would tell something but would never give an explanation.

However, no matter what Elder Mu and Elder Lin, or the other elders of the Sea God Pavilion, discussed, Luo Chen knew that these matters were not something he could interfere with.

Now that he hasn't even reached the level of Soul King, it's still too early for him to get involved in the affairs of the Titled Douluo level, even if his real combat power is enough to suppress the Seven-Ringed Soul Saint.

Even a Nine-Ring Titled Douluo-level warrior would fall into the hands of an evil soul master, let alone him.

After taking a deep breath and digesting the information that Elder Lin had revealed to him, Luo Chen put on that relaxed smile again and said to Ma Xiaotao beside him:

"Come on, Senior Sister, let's go find Elder Mu right now. Although Elder Lin didn't tell me about the treasure that can completely eradicate your evil fire, I do have a way to temporarily remove the evil fire accumulated in your body, but it can't be eradicated."

Luo Chen naturally had a way to eliminate the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body, but this method was a bit strange.

That is to let Ma Xiaotao pour all the evil fire suppressed in her body into Luo Chen's body. Although the evil fire cannot be forcibly extracted from Ma Xiaotao's body, it is possible to let Ma Xiaotao control the evil fire and make it leave her body.

For ordinary people, the deadly evil fire would cause serious injuries even if it invaded the body, let alone touched the body. However, for Luo Chen, it was just a somewhat hot "energy".
