Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 163 Level
It has to be said that although Ye Yulin seems to have a bad attitude, he is also teaching the students in Mingde Hall with all his heart.

This trip not only allowed Lin Xiao to learn where he could buy rare metals, but he also benefited a lot from a few simple suggestions.

Plus the manuscripts I sorted out before...

Lin Xiao is not Ye Yulin's disciple. As an ordinary student and teacher, Ye Yulin has done enough.

Perhaps it is precisely this teaching method of Mingde Hall that has enabled the rapid development of soul guides here.

Soul guides are different from soul masters. Theoretically, any soul master has the opportunity to study soul guides in various directions without being restricted by martial souls.

If some secrets are only passed down orally between teachers and students like soul masters, they will sooner or later face the risk of being lost. Only by teaching these things to others can they be passed down and continuously improved.

After returning to Mingde Hall, Lin Xiao did not immediately start making soul guides. Instead, he carefully studied the manuscripts given to him by Ye Yulin. These things might help him better understand the areas that need improvement in the future.

As it was getting dark, Lin Xiao met an unexpected person outside the dormitory.

"Orange? Why are you here?"

Over the years in the academy, he would occasionally meet Orange, but the number of times she came to him on her own initiative like this was very rare.

Juzi didn't say anything, but just looked at Lin Xiao with a complicated expression. After so many years, she had long been accustomed to showing a different face to others. She was no longer the little girl who told Lin Xiao about her fears that night many years ago.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly raised her hand and showed Lin Xiao a token.

Lin Xiao looked at the skull on the token and frowned slightly. "Where did you find it?"

"It was given to me by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Juzi said and put the token back.

It turned out to be Xu Tianran’s.

Lin Xiao quickly accepted this explanation. After all, Xu Tianran had already adopted Ye Xishui as his adoptive mother, so what was so strange about having a Holy Spirit Church token? However, Juzi must have had other reasons for coming here with Xu Tianran's token.

"What are your orders, Your Highness?"

When Xu Tianran was mentioned, Juzi's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly hid it well.

"His Highness asked me to select some people to do something."

"So you found me?"

Orange didn't avoid Lin Xiao's gaze and nodded, "I know your strength."

Lin Xiao sighed helplessly. Although Xu Tianran wasn't a member of the Holy Spirit Church, he had a special relationship with them. It would be easy for him to ask Zhongli Wu for help. The fact that Juzi had come with the token was enough to explain everything.

"Okay, what exactly happened?" Lin Xiao glanced around and his expression became a little serious.

However, Orange just shook his head and said, "I can't tell you the specifics. Just get ready and leave with me in a few days."

Lin Xiao frowned and looked at the orange in front of him without moving.

"Trust me, there will be no danger." After saying this, Orange turned around and disappeared into the night without waiting for Lin Xiao's response.

Watching Ju Zi's disappearing figure, Lin Xiao finally looked away. Although she concealed it well, Lin Xiao could still vaguely sense that something was off about her emotions. Lin Xiao had never underestimated Ju Zi. Although her cultivation talent was somewhat lacking, she would one day become the Empress Dowager of the Sun Moon Empire and even almost unify the Douluo Continent. Even Ju Zi couldn't hide her emotions, so this matter was probably not as easy as she made it out to be.

If this matter is really not dangerous, it would be fine. But if there is any accident...

When Lin Xiao thought of this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and then he turned around and returned to the dormitory.

After turning on the lighting soul guide on the table, he did not enter into meditation. Instead, he took out the carving knife in the dormitory after a long time.

No matter what Xu Tianran asked Orange to do, it was always right to improve his strength. The cultivation of soul power might not change much in just a few days, but he already had ideas in his mind on how to improve the soul guide.

Raising his hand, a touch of green lit up from the palm of his hand, and an exquisite carving knife was lying quietly in Lin Xiao's palm.

Since obtaining this Soul Carving Knife, he had never used it to create a soul guide. After all, it had been in his body since he met Alex, and during this time in Mingde Hall, he had never taken it out in front of so many students and teachers.

Holding it in his hand at this moment, he actually had a vague feeling of being integrated with himself. It didn't feel like a carving knife, but rather like an extension of his fingers.

Lin Xiao's mind moved, and he took out a piece of metal and fixed it on the table. Then the knife moved with his fingers, and the emerald green sharp blade gently penetrated into the metal, giving Lin Xiao a wonderful feeling as if touching it with his fingers.

He could sense the friction between the carving knife and the metal, as well as the texture inside the metal. With a slight movement of his wrist, the carving knife passed through as if without any hindrance, leaving behind a faint trace.

The soul power brushed gently, and the metal fragments slowly flew up, leaving a uniform soul guide array pattern on the metal block.

Lin Xiao looked down at the living creature carving knife in his hand, then raised his hand and pressed it on the metal block.

It had been a long time since he learned how to make soul guides, but this was the first time he had felt this kind of "liveliness" from ordinary metal.

His mind moved slightly, and a shadow slowly appeared beside Lin Xiao. The shadow looked at the carving knife in Lin Xiao's hand and sighed slightly.

"When I first had it, it wasn't as beautiful as it is now."

Lin Xiao turned around and glanced at the Soul Devourer beside him. "So you placed that curse on it?"

Upon hearing this, Soul Eater immediately lost the desire to sigh.

Lin Xiao didn't pay too much attention to it and asked about other things, "Do you know what's going on?"

"Yes, this carving knife has two properties. One is 'sharpness'. It can easily cut through any metal. The other is 'activity'. The soul guide made with it seems to have life."

Seeing that the Soul Eater was about to become addicted to the Living Soul Carving Knife again, Lin Xiao took it back.

He lowered his head slightly and looked at the carving knife in his hand, knowing in his heart that the two properties of this carving knife should be related to the characteristics of the gold of life.

The auctioneer was right; if this carving knife hadn't been cursed by Soul Devourer Douluo, it would have ranked far higher than ninety-ninth. It was a shame that over the past few thousand years, no soul master had fully utilized its usefulness as a carving knife.

After truly feeling the effect of the ranking engraving knife, Lin Xiao suddenly became certain in his heart that with it, perhaps within the next few days, he would be able to complete the improvement of the soul guide and officially become a seventh-level soul guide.
