Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

Summary:

　【Fighting Three】

Chu Ci was born in the era of the Dragon King Legend in Douluo Continent, and awakened the martial soul of the Scales of God.

When one side of a scale is supported, an equivalent substance must appear on the other side to maintain balance. This is absolute equilibrium, and it is the law governing all things in the world.

Create all laws, forge spirits in objects. Level the abyss, enjoy peace.

Chu Ci gently placed the events of her life on one side of a scale, and the scale rose and fell until it reached balance. Chu Ci looked at the other side and smiled faintly, "An era, an era that belongs to me."

Chapter 1 Douluo New Life

Douluo Continent, Sun Moon Federation, Aolai City.

With black hair and black eyes, the handsome Chu Ci leaned lazily against the railing of a rooftop, looking at the soul guidance tablet in his hand as he said, "Don't worry, Uncle Li, two three-ring Soul Masters are nothing to me."

“But young master, you have only been cultivating for nearly three years, and the opponents are two evil soul masters. This battle is truly too dangerous.” An elderly man in his sixties standing next to Chu Ci looked worried.

Upon hearing this, Chu Ci murmured to himself: Yes, I've been cultivating for three years, and it's been nine years since I arrived here.

Chu Ci is a time traveler who was transported to the Douluo Continent by a dump truck nine years ago and was born into this world as an embryo.

When Chu Ci grew older, upon hearing the term "Martial Soul," she realized that she had transmigrated to the Douluo Continent.

At the same time, Chu Ci learned that she was in Aolai City, and she began to have a vague guess about the era in which she lived.

When she accidentally met Tang Wulin, she realized that she had traveled back to the time of the Legend of the Dragon King, and that she was the same age as Tang Wulin.

Having figured out the timeline, everything else depends on how well Chu Ci awakens his martial soul. A strong martial soul means he'll be qualified to face Tang Shenwang's plans and the dangers of the Douluo Continent's future. A weak martial soul means he can stay far away and simply relax. Of course, Chu Ci secretly desires an extremely powerful martial soul; after all, he's already here, so why not experience the view from the highest point?

Fortunately, Chu Ci was indeed extraordinary. At the age of six, he successfully awakened his martial soul, the Balance of Gods, and possessed innate full soul power.

The Scales of God is a golden scale with a noble air, adorned with dragons and phoenixes, and exquisitely crafted.

The scale pan hanging on the left side is raised high, it looks very nice, and its ability is also quite impressive.

After awakening his martial soul, Chu Ci entered Hongshan Academy to learn about martial souls and studied soul tools under the guidance of a level-five soul master hired by his father.

In less than three years, Chu Ci, with his extraordinary talent and a special application of his martial soul, reached level twenty-one in soul power and created many new soul tools.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Chu Ci's handsome face showed an indifferent expression. He waved his hand and said, "Putting aside my strength, just having Uncle Li, a Soul Saint, by my side ensures my safety is absolutely guaranteed."

Uncle Li's full name is Li Zonglei. He is a level 76 Soul Saint and the personal steward of Chu Ci's father. He is extremely loyal to the Chu family.

Li Zonglei's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself. Finally, he sighed and said, "Alright, but if the young master is in any danger, I will take action."

Chu Ci nodded, reached out and activated the soul-guided wireless earpiece beside his ear, and said, "Taiyi, transmit the information detected by the miniature dragonfly detector to the tablet."

"Okay, Young Master Chu Ci, information transmission complete." A deep, mechanical male voice sounded in the earpiece.

Taiyi, whose full name is Donghuang Taiyi, is an artificial intelligence designed by Chu Ci and is Chu Ci's powerful assistant.

Inside an abandoned factory building in front of Chu Ci and his companion, two third-ring evil spirit masters had fled there after carrying out a terrorist attack.

Chu Ci frowned as he looked at the screen displaying the interior of the room on the tablet, and couldn't help but say, "The police department is really useless. Not only can they not catch two Soul Masters, but they can't even find anyone after searching for so long."

It makes sense, really. In the original story, the police department was incredibly ineffective. Whenever something happened in the city, either the army would enter, or major powers like Shrek Academy and the Tang Clan would send people to handle it. The police department would just collapse and become completely useless.

After finalizing the battle plan, Chu Ci quietly arrived outside the abandoned factory and took out four miniature floating swords from his storage wristband. These miniature floating swords were all level three soul tools, one of the results of Chu Ci's years of learning about soul tools.

Chu Ci made no attempt to hide his identity, swaggering into the abandoned factory and arrogantly shouting, "You two scoundrels inside, I'm here to arrest you!"

The voice of Chu Ci echoed in the empty factory, but there was no response for a long time.

So cautious? Chu Ci raised an eyebrow. So timid even in front of a nine-year-old.

If you won't come out, then we'll force you to. Chu Ci listened to Taiyi's report of location and manipulated his floating sword to attack the evil soul master's hiding place.

These four floating swords represent the four elements of earth, water, wind, and fire, respectively. When activated, they can unleash sword energy with immense power.

The two evil soul masters had no idea that Chu Ci would discover them. They couldn't dodge in time and only had time to use their soul skills to defend themselves.

However, the power of those three sword energies was comparable to the full-force attack of a War Soul Venerable. The two three-ring evil soul masters were unable to defend against them, and deep sword marks appeared on their bodies.

One of the evil soul masters with the Demon Bear Martial Soul lit up his third soul ring, roared, and spat out a ball of dark energy from his mouth, which flew towards Chu Ci.

Another evil spirit master with the Corpse-Eating Bird Martial Soul took to the air, flapping its wings from the other side and swooping down towards Chu Ci like a streak of purple light.

Chu Ci calmly activated his martial soul, and two hundred-year soul rings rose from his feet. The Divine Scales, as tall as Chu Ci, appeared behind him.

Suddenly, a soul tool with the face of a ferocious beast appeared beside Chu Ci. This strangely shaped soul tool opened its mouth and swallowed the dark energy ball in one gulp. The dark energy ball appeared on the tilted end of the scales of the gods behind him.

A small purple sable perched on Chu Ci's shoulder; it was Chu Ci's first spirit, the Xuanling Sable.

At the same time, Chu Ci's first spirit ring lit up, "First spirit skill, perfect balance."

A white energy body appeared on the other side of the scales of God, and the two sides of the scales quickly reached equilibrium.

At the moment of balance, the energy body transformed into a blade of light filled with radiant energy. Chu Ci waved his hand, and the blade of light slashed towards the Soul Master with the Corpse-Eating Bird Martial Soul.

This attack, imbued with the power of light, is the nemesis of evil spirit masters. The Corpse-Eating Bird Martial Spirit Master was directly cut down from the sky by the light blade, his fate unknown.

The Soul Master with the Demon Bear Martial Soul stared in disbelief at the scene, exclaiming, "How is this possible? How did you do that?"

"Everything is just an equal exchange," Chu Ci smiled slightly. This is the core ability of the Scales of God.

The balance of the gods is all about absolute equilibrium. When something is placed on one side of the scale, an equivalent thing will appear on the other side to balance the scale.

The scales can hold anything, including items, elements, soul power, and even life itself.

The better the items are placed, the more soul power is consumed during balancing.

However, in order to place something on the scale, it must be completely covered by Chu Ci's soul power. To achieve this, Chu Ci created the Soul Stealing Beast, which is the ferocious beast-faced soul guide floating beside him.

The Soul-Stealing Beast has two functions: first, it can absorb the opponent's soul power to supply Chu Ci himself; second, it can directly devour the opponent's soul skill, severing the connection between the soul skill and the soul master, and is placed on the scale by Chu Ci.

Just now was a collaboration between the Soul Stealer and the Scales of God. The Soul Stealer swallowed the Dark Energy Ball, and Chu Ci placed the rest on the scales.

Simultaneously, use the first soul skill to accelerate the balancing speed of the Divine Scales. At the other end, quickly generate the Blade of Light to counterattack the evil soul master.

Chapter 2 Fighting the Evil Soul Master

Before the evil spirit master with the Demon Bear Martial Soul could even figure out what kind of Martial Soul the scales behind Chu Ci were, the Earth Sword and the Wind Sword had already flown in front of him.

The Earth Sword contained earth elements, and its blade flowed with yellow light. When the Earth Sword cleaved down, it vaguely resembled a mountain, and the powerful and heavy blow forced the evil soul master to cross his arms to block the attack.

The wind sword moved swiftly, leaving trails of white afterimages as it pierced the air, instantly striking the evil soul master.

The evil soul master with the Demon Bear Martial Soul was shocked and immediately used his second soul skill, Demon Bear Body.

Black light emanated from the evil spirit master's body, and a dense layer of black energy covered his entire body. However, it only blocked the wind sword for a moment before the wind sword, which had penetrating properties, pierced through his defenses.

Chu Ci seized the opportunity, exerted force with his legs, and teleported to the front of the evil soul master at a speed far exceeding that of an ordinary second-ring great soul master.

The Chu Ci's ability to possess such speed stems from a movement technique it created itself—the Instant Step.

When Chu Ci learned that the scales of the gods could be used to balance anything, he wondered if profound and mysterious enlightenment and talent could be replaced.

Thinking of this, Chu Ci immediately began the experiment. To her surprise, it really worked!

However, the talent bonus that Chu Ci currently provides is very low, almost useless. But Chu Ci quickly changed his mind: the value of something is composed of many aspects; reducing one aspect and increasing another generally does not change the value of the thing.

So Chu Ci had a sudden inspiration: he reduced the time-limited effect of talent bonuses and enhanced their overall impact.

This test proved effective. Thus, the Chu Ci (Songs of Chu) gained its own "wise man's time."

After nearly three years of cultivation, Chu Ci has made great progress in creating his own soul skills and learning soul tools, thanks in no small part to the "Sage Time".

Chu Ci used Instant Step to teleport in front of the evil soul master, and his second soul ring lit up.

Chu Ci used his second soul skill, Attribute Balance. When the attributes of things on both sides of the scales of the gods are the same, the soul power consumed for balancing is reduced.

Several pieces of fire-elemental metal stored in the bracers disappeared and appeared on the scales. The scales of the gods balanced, and a dragon claw blazing with flames appeared on Chu Ci's right arm.

Chu Ci swung his fiery dragon claw, plunging it into the opponent's heart, instantly opening the opponent's chest.

Suddenly, Chu Ci heard a whooshing sound behind him. Another evil soul master had risen from the ground at some unknown time, waving his metallic wings and slashing at Chu Ci.

"I've been waiting for you," Chu Ci thought with a slight smile. The Soul-Stealing Beast fiercely absorbed the soul power of the Demon Bear Martial Soul Master, while Chu Ci activated the Balance of Gods, and a dark barrier appeared behind him.

The sharp wings struck the dark barrier as if slashing at cotton, sinking deep into it.

The attacking evil spirit master had a fierce look in his eyes. Seeing his companion die tragically, a hint of madness flashed in his eyes. He threw a level-four soul guide grenade, which exploded at close range between the two.

The enemy's reckless act of detonating the grenade caught Chu Ci completely off guard; the grenade exploded, sending up a cloud of thick smoke.

Although the evil soul master survived the grenade explosion thanks to his level three soul guide shield, his already injured body was further aggravated.

A trickle of crimson blood seeped from the corner of the evil spirit master's mouth. He collapsed to the ground, his breath fading, and laughed loudly, "You brat, you're dead now. This is the consequence of angering your grandpa."

"Oh, really?" The thick smoke gradually dissipated, revealing a curtain of water. Whirlpools rose on the water, dissipating and absorbing the force of the grenade explosion.

When everything calmed down, the water curtain transformed back into a water sword.

"What? How is this possible?" The evil spirit master stared in disbelief at the scene.

Chu Ci expressionlessly touched his left shoulder, which had been cut by shrapnel from a grenade due to momentary lapse in attention. He circulated his soul power, and the wound on his shoulder disappeared, reappearing on the scales.

The scales of the gods were balanced, and a blood-red blade appeared in Chu Ci's hand. With a streak of bloody light, the level-three soul guide shield on the evil soul master was completely destroyed.

The evil spirit master's eyes were filled with terror as he turned and fled. Chu Ci was about to give chase, but then seemed to sense something and stopped.

As the evil spirit master watched the doorway draw closer, excitedly believing he was about to escape, another nine-year-old boy appeared at the door.

The evil spirit master looked up and met the little boy's gray eyes. An indescribable fear welled up in his heart, as if the little boy in front of him had turned into a ferocious demon.

A yellow, century-old soul ring rose from beneath the gray-eyed boy's feet, and a gray figure silently rushed into the evil soul master's body. Instantly, the evil soul master felt fear spread throughout his body, and a wave of despair surged into his heart, causing him to collapse weakly to the ground.

The gray-eyed boy walked step by step toward the evil spirit master, whose eyes were filled with terror, and whose whole body trembled more and more violently. When the gray-eyed boy stood before the evil spirit master, the evil spirit master's soul was annihilated in fear and despair.

Chu Ci looked at the corpses of the two evil soul masters and breathed a sigh of relief. He reached out and flicked his clothes, and the bloodstains on his body disappeared.

“Boss,” the gray-eyed boy came to Chu Ci’s side and bowed slightly.

"Tianzhe, didn't I tell you not to use the characteristics of your martial soul to torture enemies?" Chu Ci frowned slightly, somewhat angry. Tianzhe's martial soul itself possessed extremely strong malevolence, and such malicious acts as torturing enemies were very detrimental to Tianzhe's development.

“But he’s an evil spirit master,” the little boy called Tianzhe retorted, a stubborn glint in his eyes. “Besides, he hurt you.”

Bai Tianzhe was born in Tianhai City. He awakened a martial soul called Nightmare, which can induce negative emotions in others through mental power and absorb them to enhance their soul power. It is recognized as an evil martial soul.
