Douluo: Wuhun Magic Harp, summoning ancient beasts

Chapter 12: Controlling the Inner Demon
Long Chen put away his martial spirit, and the nine-tailed fox's shadow disappeared.

Ye Tianming sighed:

"Xiaochen, your new soul skill is also very powerful. It has a powerful confusing effect."

"Yes, Uncle Ye. As you expected, it has a very strong control effect and can make the opponent dizzy. Moreover, I can control the opponent's actions according to my own thoughts. As long as the opponent's mental strength is not ten times greater than mine, he will be restricted by this soul skill. The restriction effect increases as my strength increases."

Ye Tianming smiled and nodded.

"Xiaochen, this soul skill of yours enables you to compete with soul masters at the Soul King level."

Long Chen's heart was also agitated, but he tried to remain calm.

"I didn't expect it to be so powerful, and I don't know why it is like this."

"Haha~ I've never seen anything like this before. The ability that the Dark Night Harp gives you is really weird. However, your second soul skill is much more normal than the first soul skill."

Ye Tianming looked around.

"It's almost dawn, you should take some time to rest. We will leave the forest after dawn."

"Okay. Uncle Ye, I want to go to the academy to see Lingling. I have something to give him."

Ye Tianming nodded.

"That's right, I miss that girl a little too. Okay, go to bed."

"Ah."

Long Chen slept for two hours and then it was daybreak.

The two left the Xingdou Great Forest and headed for the Royal Academy outside Tiandou City.

Along the way, the two chatted as they walked.

Ye Tianming said:
"Xiaochen, you are now a level 22 Great Spirit Master, and you can proceed to the next stage of training."

"Are you fighting a soul beast?"

"Yes."

Ye Tianming nodded and gave a detailed explanation:
“The first phase of special training is to improve your physical fitness, strength, speed, etc. The next phase of special training is the real test.

The early special training is to enable you to fight soul beasts in close combat. You can use soul power and weapons.

However, the two soul skills you currently possess are both dimensionality-reducing attacks against soul beasts below the thousand-year level, and cannot be used during training.

If you are unable to use soul skills, even a soul beast that has cultivated for decades can still pose a huge threat to you.

What you have to do is to keep fighting them and defeat them, but not kill them.

During this phase of your training, you may suffer more pain. However, your aunt and I will be with you. "

Long Chen knew the good intentions of Ye Tianming and his wife.

They are helping him get on the right path.

Such experience can not only quickly improve his combat skills, but also help him control his inner desire to kill.

As long as his heart is strong enough, he will not be controlled by the inner demon even if the Dark Night Demon Harp Martial Soul has a powerful evil attribute.

"Uncle Ye, I will follow your arrangements."

"Good kid. After you obtain your third soul ring, if your soul skills become as normal as your second soul skill, I will send you to the Royal Academy to accompany Lingling."

"really?"

"Yes. I know you have been worried about Lingling. I feel more at ease with you by her side. Besides, the Royal Academy has top-notch training resources, which will be of great help to your future growth."

"Then I will seize the time to practice and strive to break through level 30 as soon as possible."

~~~~~~~
Long Chen and Ye Tianming came to Tiandou Royal Academy.

I passed through the solemn gate of the college and followed the familiar road to the teaching building.

Ye Tianming went to find his friend Liu Zhicheng and asked about Ye Lingling's recent situation.

Long Chen went straight to the dormitory building where Ye Lingling was.

He is no longer a six-year-old child, so it is not convenient for him to go in. He waits at the door of the building, ready to ask other girls to call Ye Lingling down.

"Long Chen?"

While Long Chen was waiting, a voice suddenly came from behind him.

Long Chen turned around and found that the person coming was Dugu Yan.

After not seeing her for two years, Dugu Yan still has short hair like before. Her green eyes match her figure that has gradually revealed with age, making her look even more charming.

Long Chen smiled slightly.

"Hello." "It's you, after not seeing you for two years, you've grown a lot taller. Are you here to look for Lingling? I'll go call her."

"Well, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Dugu Yan smiled and strode into the dormitory building.

After a while, Ye Lingling came in front of Long Chen.

She was wearing a light blue school uniform today and her long hair was like a waterfall.

When he saw Long Chen, he came up to him happily, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Brother Chen, you are here."

"Yes. Uncle Ye went to see Teacher Liu, so I came to find you."

"Brother Chen, let's go to another place to talk."

"it is good."

There are many girls coming in and out of the dormitory door, which is not very convenient.

Ye Lingling brought Long Chen to a small garden in the academy and found a quiet corner to sit down.

"Lingling, how are you doing recently?"

"Everything is fine. How about you? Your soul power should have broken through level 20, right?"

"Yes, I just broke through. A few days ago, Uncle Ye and I went to the Xingdou Great Forest to hunt soul beasts. After absorbing the soul ring, my soul power reached level 22."

"Level twenty-two? Brother Chen, you are amazing."

Ye Lingling looked at Long Chen with admiration, her eyes full of pride and joy.

"What about you? What level are you?"

"I'm only level 16."

Afterwards, Ye Lingling shared her recent progress in cultivation.

Long Chen also shared with Ye Lingling the interesting stories and achievements of his medical studies in Guang'an Hall, the hardships of the devilish training, and the second soul skill he had just acquired.

Ye Lingling listened attentively with a focused expression.

"Brother Chen, you live a fulfilling life every day. In comparison, my training in the academy is much more boring."

"Lingling, I have good news for you. After I break through level 30, I may be able to come to your academy."

"Really? That's great!"

Hearing the news, Ye Lingling smiled happily.

She hasn't been as happy as she is today since her grandmother passed away.

Long Chen was also very happy, and he also hoped that Ye Lingling could get out of the haze as soon as possible.

"Lingling, I have something to give you."

As Long Chen spoke, he took out an exquisite small wooden box from the storage device on his waist, which contained the whale glue he specially prepared for Ye Lingling.

Ye Lingling was very curious.

"Brother Chen, what is this?"

"It can replenish your body and help improve its toughness, making it more comfortable and less painful for you to absorb spirit rings in the future."

“Is there anything so good?”

Ye Lingling took the wooden box and couldn't wait to open it.

A faint fragrance wafts into the air.

"Wow, it smells so good."

The transparent grains of whale jelly look like yellow crystals.

Ye Lingling asked doubtfully:

"Brother Chen, is this for eating?"

"Ah."

"But it looks like it's hard as a rock. Can we just swallow it like that?"
