Douluo Continent: The Peerless Sun and Moon Traverse the Heavens

"You want to become my apprentice?"

Ye Xishui looked down at Xu Cheng from her elevated position, a hint of interest flashing across her face.

"Although you and I can form a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, your cultivation level is still too weak. There are few opponents on this continent that I cannot defeat alone."

Xu Cheng knew that Ye Xishui was telling the truth, but it wasn't absolute. In the original story, she had been defeated and injured by Di Tian, ​​the strongest soul beast.

"Although I am only at level 75 now, I have not yet begun to cultivate my second martial soul. Give me ten years, and I will definitely become a titled Douluo."

"If I were to take His Majesty Death as my master, I would serve him wholeheartedly."

Twin martial souls are indeed rare on the continent, and their cultivation speed in the later stages far surpasses that of other soul masters of the same level. Xu Cheng's claim of a ten-year title is not impossible.

Ye Xishui narrowed her eyes slightly, playing with her long, slender fingernails, as if she were plotting something:

"I heard... Xu Tianran values ​​you highly?"

Xu Cheng didn't know what Ye Xishui was thinking, but under the circumstances, he had no choice but to answer truthfully: "This junior has some unique understanding of soul tools, which can be of help to the Crown Prince."

Ye Xishui looked at Xu Cheng and nodded slightly.

Upon seeing this, Xu Cheng immediately bowed deeply and shouted loudly:

"Greetings, my esteemed teacher!"

Ye Xishui raised her hand to stop Xu Cheng from bowing. Looking at Xu Cheng, her eyes gradually brightened, and her voice trembled slightly.

"I originally intended to help you remove the evil influences from your spiritual sea, but since you possess such talent, it cannot be wasted."

With the Blood Soul Demon Puppet Martial Soul possessing him, a cold and murderous aura enveloped Xu Cheng.

Ye Xishui extended her right hand and made a slight gesture, causing Xu Cheng's chest to touch her palm.

The icy soul power entered Xu Cheng's body, traveled along his meridians, and finally gathered on Xu Cheng's Moon Martial Soul.

The moon appeared behind Xu Cheng's head, spinning rapidly, as if generating a suction force that continuously drew in the black energy within his spiritual sea.

The Sun Martial Soul was also rotating in the opposite direction, but it gradually became brighter.

The Moon Martial Soul rotated for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn before gradually slowing down.

Xu Cheng examined his body and found that the stinging sensation in his mental sea had completely disappeared.

However, his Moon Martial Soul had completely changed.

Half of it was the bright white of the moon, and the other half was thick black. It was slowly rotating, like the changing phases of the moon in the sky.

"Teacher, what's this?"

"Based on the origin of my soul, I have reconstructed your Moon Martial Soul, enabling it to evolve towards the direction of soul power. The evil energy in your spiritual sea is also part of the soul power, a curse and filth of the soul. As my disciple, you will inevitably inherit my legacy in the path of the soul."

"Thank you so much, my dear teacher!"

Xu Cheng's Moon Martial Soul has not yet absorbed any Soul Rings, and its origin is very weak. Due to the relationship of Martial Soul Fusion, it is not difficult for a Limit Douluo to cause Martial Soul mutation.

Seeing Xu Cheng's respectful demeanor, Ye Xishui's lips curled into a playful smile:

"You don't actually think my 'masterpiece' is that simple, do you?"

Xu Cheng's heart skipped a beat; he had a bad feeling. This evil spirit master leader was indeed up to no good. He had no choice but to lower his posture and continue to ask for guidance.

"Please enlighten me, teacher."

Ye Xishui's lips gradually curved upwards:

"Your evil aura hasn't disappeared; it has been transferred to your Moon Martial Soul."

Because it was constructed with the help of my soul power, I can sense you wherever you go, so don't have any inappropriate thoughts.

Your soul will continuously nourish this evil energy. From this moment forward, you must continuously strengthen the essence of your Moon Martial Soul to avoid being devoured by it.

The more Xu Cheng listened, the more alarmed he became. Even though he was a noble transmigrator with an omniscient cheat, he still harbored a degree of contempt for those famous and powerful figures in the original work.

Now that he is at the mercy of others, it is entirely his own fault.

However, compared to the previous situation where he couldn't cultivate, things are much better now, so it's not like he gained nothing.

Xu Cheng inwardly mocked himself helplessly, but his face remained obedient: "This disciple would never dare to have any disloyal thoughts and will certainly cultivate diligently."

Ye Xishui looked Xu Cheng up and down, frowning, her words tinged with disdain: "Your physical condition is really too poor. Although you have the life force of that carving knife to nourish you, as your Moon Martial Soul origin grows, it will inevitably be unable to meet the needs of cultivating twin martial souls. You should also pay attention to this issue."

"Disciple understands."

Ye Xishui waved her hand: "Forget it, I have no interest in teaching disciples. I'll just arrange your future path and then you can fend for yourself."

Before Xu Cheng could react, she grabbed him by the back of the neck, and in a flash, she teleported to the starry sky. After determining their location, she flew away with Xu Cheng at high speed.

Xu Cheng, caught in the raging air currents, could not open his eyes and could not use his spiritual power to investigate, so he could only wait with his eyes closed.

After flying for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Ye Xishui finally stopped.

Xu Cheng opened his eyes and found himself in a dense forest, but its atmosphere was completely different from that of the Star Dou Great Forest. The trees here had gnarled and intertwined branches, and the ground was covered with damp moss instead of weeds. The air smelled musty and damp.

This is... the Demon Forest?

Just as Xu Cheng was lost in thought, a sharp screech came from afar. Xu Cheng looked in the direction of the sound and saw two rows of eight lights arranged neatly.

With a cracking sound as sharp objects pierced the ground, the eight points of light slowly approached. Only with the help of the sparse moonlight could Xu Cheng barely make them out:

The eight points of light were actually the eyes of a giant spider. The spider was dark purple all over, with a metallic texture on its carapace, exposed fangs, and ferocious mouthparts. Its abdomen had special golden patterns, ten in total.

This is a Soul-Devouring Demon Spider that is 100,000 years old!

Before the Soul-Devouring Spider could launch an attack, Ye Xishui, who was beside Xu Cheng, moved first. With a wave of her hand, a surge of powerful soul energy rushed out, pressing the previously ferocious spider to the ground, rendering it unable to move an inch.

Ye Xishui slowly closed her outstretched fingers, and the soul power enveloping the demon spider compressed and rubbed against it, producing bursts of shockwaves.

The spider fell completely still, stunned by the shockwave.

"Go, absorb its spirit ring."

Ye Xishui spoke indifferently, as if she were explaining something trivial.

Xu Cheng stepped forward. Even though the Soul-Devouring Spider was stunned, he could still feel its involuntary ferocity. He took out a sharp longsword from his storage soul tool, found the gap between the spider's neck and head, and stabbed it directly in. After stirring it, a blood-red 100,000-year soul ring floated out.

Xu Cheng recalled that just a few days ago, he had exhausted all his efforts to find a glimmer of hope when he encountered a 100,000-year-old soul beast. Now, however, the soul ring of this even more terrifying Soul Devouring Demon Spider seemed to have been picked up for free.

Anyone who's not doing well at Shrek Academy should come to the Holy Spirit Cult.

The Supreme Elder is such a good person!

Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Xu Cheng sat cross-legged, circulating his soul power and drawing the soul ring into his Moon Martial Soul.
