Douluo Dalu: Golden Spirit Tree

Chapter 46 Lin Yi's Light

On the third floor of Poseidon Pavilion, Lin Yi found his master.

"Come on, sit down first."

Lin Yi sat down obediently, looking like a good student.

Moon smiled and said, "You said earlier that you wanted to become a support-type spirit master. Has anything changed now?"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi slowly nodded, "Yes."

"tell me the story."

"I think I can now be called a free-spirited person, or an all-rounder."

Moon laughed and said, "You are quite confident."

"However, it is indeed true. With your soul skill configuration and your comprehension, I can't even think of any shortcomings you have."

A hint of complacency appeared in Lin Yi's eyes.

Moon said, "Since you understand it yourself, I won't bother you any more. Let's get started."

"Regarding the origin, there's actually not much I can teach you, because everyone's path is different. Even with the same martial soul, the path they take will be different due to the soul master's personal understanding."

"You now possess four attributes, which is truly a natural advantage. This will certainly make your combat power far superior to those of your peers, but correspondingly, the effort you need to expend will also be far greater than that of others. If it weren't for your extraordinary understanding, this teacher would have a real headache."

In response to Moon's praise, Lin Yi just smiled embarrassedly, but did not refute it. With the memories of two lives, his comprehension was indeed extraordinary.

"We can talk about the rest later. My martial spirit is the Holy Light Dragon, and I have the most profound understanding of light. So I will first tell you what light is."

Realizing that the highlight was about to begin, Lin Yi's expression couldn't help but become serious.

"Xiaoyi, according to your understanding, what is light?"

This was something Lin Yi had never thought of. Frowning and pondering for a moment, Lin Yi replied uncertainly, "Bright?"

Moon burst into laughter upon hearing this, and Lin Yi felt a little shy.

Moon said: "Actually, you are right."

Lin Yi's eyes suddenly lit up.

But Moon continued: "But, it's not entirely true."

"..."

Looking at the speechless Lin Yi, Moon laughed again.

"Xiaoyi, you have to understand that light is a very broad concept. 'Bright' is only one part of it."

Lin Yi seemed to be thinking about something when he heard this.

"Just like soul masters with the same light-attributed martial spirit, each one has a different understanding of light."

"For example, I, your Master, comprehend the vastness, dominance, and majesty of light. Shaozhe, your Senior Brother, who learned from you, comprehends the light that is somewhat similar to yours, possessing the same vastness and majesty. However, his own personality is different from the light he comprehends. Without the control of his mind, his body naturally cannot be controlled either. That's why he's been stuck at the threshold of Super Douluo for decades, unable to make any progress."

Lin Yi seemed to understand something.

"Do you know what your mother's light is?"

"The light that my mother realized?" Lin Yi thought about it and shook his head. He had never seen his mother actually take action, so he really didn't know what his mother's light was.

Moon chuckled and said, "I have already reminded you just now that a spirit master's temperament will be affected by his or her own martial spirit."

"In fact, the soul master and the martial soul influence each other. The soul master's temperament will affect the soul master's perception. Similarly, the soul master's perception will also unconsciously affect the soul master's temperament."

"Your mother has an outgoing and direct personality, and similarly, her understanding of light is similar."

"It means to purify and destroy evil with light. This is most suitable for her straightforward personality. However, because of this, your mother is somewhat jealous of evil. This is also why your Senior Brother Yan was not well-liked by her in the past."

Lin Yi was startled when he heard this, "Did Senior Brother Yan do anything evil in the past?"

Moon smiled awkwardly. As a teacher, while it was not right for him to speak ill of his students behind their backs, he also didn't want this young student to misunderstand his senior brother. So he explained, "It wasn't really anything bad. It's just that when your senior brother Yan was young, he was a bit of a playboy and once hurt a woman who loved him sincerely. When your mother found out, she was very upset by this behavior."

"Otherwise, Shaozhe and your mother both have the same martial spirit, the Phoenix of Light, so he should be the most suitable teacher for your mother."

Lin Yi finally understood why his mother's eyes were filled with dislike and even disgust whenever she mentioned Yan Shaozhe. It turned out that the root of the problem was this. Yan Shaozhe's own dark history when he was young was known to the students, and there was no way to retaliate for this kind of thing. In the end, he had to hide away and pretend that he didn't see it.

Lin Yi, having tasted the melon, felt delighted. He had learned something new and was having fun listening to it. It was both educational and entertaining. "Master is truly remarkable! In another world, he would surely be a top-notch teacher." Moon coughed lightly. While there was a reason for this, it was still a bit awkward to tell his eldest disciple about his youthful antics behind his back, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Xiaoyi, I think you now have some understanding of light. Then, you need to ask yourself, what is your light?"

Lin Yi fell silent after hearing this. Moon did not interrupt him, but waited silently for Lin Yi to think.

Lin Yi recalled everything in his memory...

When he was three years old, his memories of another world were awakened. That stable and peaceful world made the little Lin Yi yearn for it very much. Sometimes, Lin Yi couldn't figure out whether he was awakening the wisdom of his previous life or the soul from that other world traveling through time.

Having gained memories of another world since childhood, Lin Yi's thoughts and way of thinking are more inclined towards that world. The peace and diversity of the other world make Lin Yi deeply fascinated by it.

After coming to this world, although Shrek City was stable, the extraordinary nature of this world made Lin Yi feel powerless and uneasy. It was not until later that his martial soul awakened, he became a disciple of the Extreme Douluo, and joined the World's Number One Academy that Lin Yi felt a little at ease.

However, the knowledge that his father had been injured by an evil soul master on the day his spirit awakened, as well as the current situation on the continent that he had seen, seemed to indicate that the world was not peaceful, and neither Shrek nor Moon were invincible.

Lin Yi, who possesses memories of another world, has always understood that he is special, especially when he was chosen by the ancient golden tree to become the son of the plane, and he also has a god with a long-term plan as his enemy. These protagonist treatments make Lin Yi more certain that he is extraordinary.

Under the influence of the thoughts from another world, Lin Yi had a vague understanding...

Since you are destined to be extraordinary, since you are destined to achieve something, since you have decided to become the strongest, you might as well go one step further!
Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt suddenly enlightened, and the golden tree martial spirit automatically emerged, shining with an unprecedented light. The ancient golden tree outside seemed to sense something, and its leaves swayed gently with a rustling sound, as if congratulating Lin Yi for his enlightenment.

Moon watched this scene with satisfaction. As a teacher, seeing his students succeed was undoubtedly the most gratifying thing.

The aura of light gathered and raised Lin Yi's soul power from level 33 to level 34. After the 70,000-year soul ring directly added three levels of soul power to Lin Yi, the light once again increased Lin Yi's soul power by one level.

And it was only one day before Lin Yi was promoted to Soul Master.

Thinking of what he had said to Lin Yi before, that the cultivation speed of the ultimate attribute would be greatly reduced after reaching the Soul Master level, Moon suddenly felt a little embarrassed. The slap in the face really came unexpectedly.

After a long time, Lin Yi's soul power fluctuations slowly subsided and the golden tree was put away.

Moon looked at Lin Yi and asked, "What did you realize?"

"Master, I understand what my light is."

"The book says, 'If you're poor, you should take care of yourself; if you're rich, you should help the world.' Now that I'm going to be in a high position, then punishing evil, promoting good, saving the world, and loving people are what I want to do. I want to be the light of this world."

"My light is hope. I will embody justice and protect all directions."

Moon listened to Lin Yi's words quietly, but was not infected by the spirit in Lin Yi's words. After more than two hundred years of tempering, Moon had long passed the age of passion.

Just looking at his disciples who took the world as their own responsibility, Moon still felt a little relieved in his heart. After all, the passion of young people always made people recall their lost youth.

After a few chuckles, Moon said, "If you want to, then do it."

"Ok!"

Then Moon continued to explain various martial soul knowledge to Lin Yi.

Three days later, the canteen manager brought the Spirit Pattern Rice seeds to Lin Yi, and then...

Under the ancient golden tree, Beibei and Lin Yi were working very hard.

"It's clearly your job, why do you want me to do this strenuous work?"

Beibei was complaining as he loosened the soil, dug holes, and buried seeds with a shovel.

Facing Beibei's accusation, Lin Yi simply sprinkled the seeds in his hand gently into the soil and said casually, "This spiritual rice is for Master's healing. What's wrong with you, the great-great-grandson, contributing a little?"

As Lin Yi spoke, he was still surprised. Although the spiritual pattern rice was called rice, the method of growing it was completely different from that in other worlds. It did not require any techniques. It only needed to be buried in the soil. As long as the place where it was planted had enough vitality of heaven and earth, it did not even need to be taken care of. It was very easy.

Hearing Lin Yi's words, Bei Bei's eyes changed, "I'm not well educated, don't lie to me, can this spiritual pattern rice heal injuries?"

"I'm not sure yet, but I'm planning to grow some and try it out."

Seeing Beibei was about to say something, Lin Yi spoke first, "I've asked you to do so many things, and as your elder, I can't order you around anymore, right?"

Beibei was almost numb to Lin Yi's daily advantage-taking. "Ayi, Xuanzu said that we are of the same generation."

"What did you say? The wind was so strong I couldn't hear you..."

"Lin Yi!"
