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

Chapter 426 Whereabouts
Having found nothing, Lin Xiao glanced back at the now indistinct outline of Dongyang City, stopped tracking, and turned to fly into the city.

However, just as he approached Dongyang City, his expression suddenly changed, and he abruptly stopped in mid-air.

"teacher."

"Disciple."

Lin Xiao and Electrolux's voices rang out one after the other in his sea of ​​consciousness.

"Teacher, you felt it too."

“Hmm.” Electrox’s tone changed slightly. “This feeling… there’s no mistake, this is…”

"The third fragment of divine consciousness." Lin Xiao and Electrolux said in unison.

The first fragment of divine consciousness was obtained by Lin Xiao, who actively entered the Star Dou Great Forest based on his memories from his previous life, and seized it while Huo Yuhao was absorbing a million-year soul ring.

That one time completely changed his fate.

The second fragment of divine consciousness was unexpectedly obtained from the statue of the Holy Emperor in the Holy Spirit Cult.

Lin Xiao couldn't say whether that event was good or bad, but it ultimately allowed him to obtain the second spirit ring of the Electrolux Martial Soul, and led him to where he is today.

And now, beneath this sea surface, he actually sensed the aura of another fragment of divine consciousness.

Did it land on some sea spirit beast? Or was it buried deep in the sea and only unearthed because of this sea spirit beast rampage...?

Lin Xiao had no way of knowing these things, but he knew that he absolutely could not sit idly by at this moment.

With a slight change in expression, Lin Xiao's figure suddenly soared into the sky, his aura completely undisguised. Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red, nine soul rings rose one by one.

The ratio of spirit rings that was completely beyond the comprehension of ordinary people attracted everyone's attention the moment it appeared.

"Cease attack!"

On the city wall, the officers also looked up at the sky, their voices echoing from various attack positions through the sound transmission devices.

Lin Xiao ignored Dongyang City's actions, simply spreading his arms wide, his soul power vibrating, and his spiritual sea resonating slightly with the plane of the dead in his dantian.

He didn't seem to use his soul power, but the world beneath his feet seemed to tremble slightly with his power.

For a moment, the surrounding world was quiet. The surging waves on the sea stopped moving and remained still in the air. The shape of every drop of seawater was clearly visible at this moment.

The world was under Lin Xiao's control. His spiritual power spread to the depths of the seabed in an instant, passing by every sea spirit beast.

On the top of Dongyang City, almost all the soldiers stared with their mouths slightly agape at the figure that seemed to be the very essence of heaven and earth.

Level 97? Level 98?
With their cultivation levels, they simply couldn't judge what realm could achieve such power. Only those soldiers who had witnessed the battles between Limit Douluos outside Heaven Dou City could barely compare the figure before them with those Limit Douluos.

For a moment, it seemed that the figure was not much different from the Limit Douluo of the past.

"Reporting to the City Lord—"

"How is it? Has the Sea Soul Beast stopped attacking?" In the city lord's mansion, a man from Dongyang City asked slowly after hearing the commotion outside.

"No, it's the Imperial Advisor." The messenger was slightly out of breath. "The Imperial Advisor has made his move."

"The Imperial Advisor?" The City Lord of Dongyang's eyes lit up as he suddenly remembered Lin Xiao, who was searching for traces of the Evil Soul Master. "The Imperial Advisor hasn't left yet?"

"Quickly, come with me to the city wall to meet the Imperial Advisor." The Lord of Dongyang City said, no longer arranging matters within the city, and hurriedly led his men towards the city wall.

Although the sea spirit beasts outside hadn't retreated, the panic he had felt earlier was gone. He knew that there was no need to make any further arrangements; Dongyang City would surely be safe and sound.

After all, he is currently the number one person in Douluo Continent.

Outside Dongyang City, some residents who had not gone far suddenly heard the sound of the waves behind them stop. Some of them subconsciously turned around and saw the figure in the sky in just one glance.

Although not tall, and even somewhat blurry to the average person from a distance, for some reason, the moment they saw that figure, everyone felt a sense of peace.

Several disciples of the Holy Spirit Cult, who were originally mingling in the middle of the crowd, also turned around to look behind them.

Then, the group exchanged surprised glances.

Although I couldn't see the figure's face clearly, wasn't that the Eighth Elder I had just met?

"Brother, who is that...?"

The former Eighth Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult appeared in full view of everyone, yet no one around showed any disgust towards the evil spirit master, which surprised the disciples somewhat.

"You don't even know this person?" The old man, who was being questioned by the group, looked surprised. "That person is the leader of the Tongming Sect and the current national advisor of the Sun Moon Empire."

"what?"

High in the sky, Lin Xiao was unaware of everyone's thoughts. Only a faint, almost imperceptible aura quietly arrived and merged into his body, yet it seemed to have no effect whatsoever.

Lin Xiao had no time to pay attention to these things. His spiritual power swept over one sea spirit beast after another, and finally he sensed the aura of a fragment of divine consciousness on a sea spirit beast that resembled a shark.

found it!
With a single glance, time seemed to begin to flow again, and the seawater receded, splashing many water droplets on the surface.

Countless sea spirit beasts, who were rushing towards Dongyang City with all their might just a moment ago, suddenly stopped.

With their limited intelligence, they were indeed unable to realize the terror of the soul tool, but the aura released by Lin Xiao made them truly walk on the edge of death.

One is the danger posed by other sea spirit beasts deep in the ocean, and the other is the imminent aura of death.

Despite their impaired mental state, their survival instincts compelled them to make a decision in an instant.

In an instant, the sea spirit beasts beneath the surface no longer dared to charge towards Dongyang City, and instead headed away from the city.

Only one was an exception.

Lin Xiao glanced down in the direction of Dongyang City, ignoring the city lord who was hurriedly climbing the city wall. He vanished in a flash, leaving only shouts coming from the city wall and outside the city.

Beneath the surface of the sea, a sea spirit beast resembling a shark remained motionless, watching other spirit beasts pass by without stopping or even glancing at it, as if someone had ripped it from this world.

The next instant, a figure appeared beside it. It was clearly a human, yet it could breathe freely underwater like a sea spirit beast.

“Teacher, the aura of the fragment of divine consciousness did indeed emanate from it, but it wasn’t here.”

"That's how it should be, otherwise the aura we can sense wouldn't be so faint."

Lin Xiao nodded upon hearing this and reached out his hand to the soul beast, "Don't be nervous, I just came to see what you've been through."
