Soul Master Continent: Summoning 300 Title Douluos at the Start

"Originally, I didn't want to offer such a pill formula, but since the Empress Yao has this idea, I'll do the Empire a favor and put it up for auction!"

"Whether we can acquire it through auction will depend on the Empire's methods!"

Upon hearing this, Su Qian was overjoyed.

She understood that no one would easily part with such a formula if it were in their possession.

After all, once the formula for the pill is revealed, the rarity of the pill instantly drops.

The key to sustainable development is to keep the formulas hidden and only auction off the pills from time to time.

Su Qian could tell that Lin Shu didn't choose to trade directly with the Empire because he didn't want to be tied to it.

Langya Auction House, in the end, could not compare with the empire in terms of its foundation to face the entire world.

This can be considered as seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.

Of course, this is just one of them.

Secondly, only by obtaining auction points through auctions can one participate in the lottery, which can improve one's own abilities.

Other direct transactions, no matter how much you gain, cannot be converted into auction points.

In fact, this is the most important factor.

If you're afraid?

Lin Shu wasn't afraid.

To put it simply, having control of three hundred Title Douluos means that even if other forces want to target him, they'll have to think twice.

Unless they can actually unite.

If they could unite so easily, the empire would not have been established so easily.

The Spirit Hall and the Papal Palace, which had not yet established their empires, might not have had as many Title Douluos as Lin Shu currently controls!

If the many powerful forces had united at that time, the empire certainly wouldn't have been established so easily.

Ultimately, at the time, everyone thought that the establishment of the empire was just the establishment of an ordinary country, and that it had not yet truly affected their interests.

"Master, I wonder when the next auction will begin? I'd like to inform His Majesty in advance so we can make preparations!"

Lin Shu smiled:

"His Majesty?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the current Empress is either your mother or your sister. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to persuade Yao Feng. As a high-ranking official in the empire, Yao Feng's status is not simple. To be able to persuade her, you must be more than just a member of the royal family, and you wouldn't be so concerned about this matter!"

Su Qian smiled gently:

"That's right, Su Yao is my older sister!"

"Master, you wouldn't refuse to let me serve as the chief auctioneer just because you know my identity, would you?"

Lin Shu smiled gently:

"Auctioning the elixir formula is a way for me to show that I am severing ties with the empire!"

Su Qian was taken aback, but then she understood.

Yes.

His position as chief auctioneer at Langya Auction House does indeed raise suspicions of a collaboration between Langya Auction House and the Empire.

But the fact that the prescription is now being auctioned off is enough to dispel all suspicion.

"Alright, that's all, you can go now!"

The first auction has ended.

There are still rewards to claim!

Say it.

Lin Shu then immersed himself in the system!

Chapter 29 Devouring Martial Soul Advancement! God's Devouring Martial Soul!

"Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing your first auction mission! You have received the following rewards!"

"Reward 1: Martial Soul Grade Upgraded by One Level!"

"Reward Two: Soul Power Level Increased by Five Levels!"

"Reward 3: Three Summoning Cards!"

You hear a system beep.

Lin Shu was overjoyed.

The reward obtained from completing the first auction seems to be extremely impressive.

The Martial Soul grade has been increased by one level.

Soul power level increased by five levels.

And you'll receive three summon cards!

Especially the summoning card; the last time Lin Shu summoned a group of Title Douluo guards, it was thanks to this card.

Now that there are three summoning cards, who knows what kind of being will be summoned?

Lin Shu put the matter aside for the time being and first checked the other two rewards.

The Martial Soul grade has been increased by one level.

On the continent, there are no clear regulations on the classification of martial spirits by grade.

However, some of these stories have been passed down.

Martial spirits are divided into four levels: lower, middle, upper, and top.

Most people's martial souls are of low grade. Without special opportunities, such martial souls can only reach the level of 30 or 40 in their entire lives.

A mid-grade martial soul has higher potential, and one can achieve a soul power level of fifty or sixty in one lifetime.

As for high-grade martial souls, they can reach a soul power level of seventy or eighty.

Lin Yurou, who was beside Lin Shu, possessed such a martial spirit, which belonged to the high-grade level.

It is a beast spirit called Ice Pheasant.

It is stronger than ordinary beast martial souls, but far inferior to its superior martial soul, the top-tier 7 beast martial soul, the Ice Phoenix.

As for Lin Shu himself.

The Devouring Martial Soul's level is currently unknown, but it requires level 50 Soul Power to awaken, making it extremely special. Even if it's not a top-tier Martial Soul, it's definitely no worse than a top-tier Martial Soul.

The Langya Cauldron Martial Soul is indeed a top-tier weapon-type Martial Soul.

Lin Shu couldn't help but ask:

"System, if I upgrade my two awakened martial souls by one grade, could I reach the legendary divine inheritance martial souls of the continent?"

"Yes!"

According to legend, gods once existed in mainland China.

It simply disappeared later.

However, although the gods have disappeared, some divine martial spirit inheritances have remained on the continent.

Those martial spirits are even more powerful than top-tier martial spirits.

Furthermore, it possesses astonishing opportunities that other martial souls do not have.

Legend has it that the divine inheritance of martial souls allows one to reach the level of a Title Douluo once their soul power cultivation reaches level ninety.

In the darkness, divine trials will descend. Once you pass the trials, you will not only reap enormous benefits, such as increased soul power and the age of your soul rings, but you may even be promoted to godhood.

However, on the mainland, it has been a long time since anyone has been heard of ascending to godhood.

Perhaps it's just a legend.

As for whether it is or not.

Perhaps Lin Shu could be studied in the future.

For now, let's focus on upgrading our martial spirit's grade first.

"System, I want to upgrade the grade of the Devouring Martial Soul!"

In Lin Shu's view, the Langya Cauldron Martial Soul was far inferior to the Devouring Martial Soul.

Since the goal is to improve, it should be to improve what one considers to be the strongest martial spirit at present.

The words fell.

Black energy was drawn out from Lin Shu's body and enveloped him.

"Yu Rou, wait over there!"

Upon hearing Lin Shu's words, Lin Yurou stopped massaging him, stepped aside, and looked at Lin Shu with great curiosity.

She noticed that the young master seemed to have changed completely since he woke up from poisoning a few days ago.

Not only did they suddenly gain a lot of titled Douluo subordinates, but their style of doing things also changed a lot.

Nowadays, these methods of cultivating soul masters have become extremely strange.

Lin Shu, naturally, paid no attention to Lin Yurou's thoughts, as he was currently focused on improving his martial soul's grade.

According to the system, the Devouring Martial Soul is currently ranked among the top-tier Martial Souls, but it is stronger than ordinary top-tier Martial Souls, yet it has not reached the level of a divine Martial Soul.

Therefore, advancing one rank in the Devouring Martial Soul means advancing to the Devouring God Martial Soul.

Once you successfully advance and acquire the Divine Martial Soul, you can ignore the difference of ten Soul Power levels.

In other words, with his current level 59 soul power, Lin Shu can easily defeat a soul master with level 69 soul power by relying on devouring martial souls.

It should be noted that before the Devouring Martial Soul was promoted to a Divine Martial Soul, Lin Shu could only suppress such a Soul Master by relying on the Soul Skill of the Devouring Martial Soul. He needed to combine it with the Divine Soul Ring of the Langya Cauldron Martial Soul to defeat it.

Now, without relying on a divinely bestowed soul ring, Lin Shu can be invincible below level 70.
