Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 159 I am the Golden Dragon King, the Evil Soul Master?

Xuanzi's words shocked everyone present.

Even Moon's eyes widened, his gaze filled with a mixture of shock and a sense of 'I knew it'.

He had always felt that something was off about Lin Yun. Even with tens of thousands of years of Soul Master heritage in the Douluo Continent, such a prodigy had never appeared before.

But when it comes to God, everything makes sense.

The methods of the gods are beyond the comprehension of mortals like them. All beings below the level of gods are mere ants. Even Moon, who is at the pinnacle of power, is still in the realm of mortals. He has truly experienced the power of the god-level, as he is able to draw upon the light of the sea god.

Faced with that power, even with his formidable cultivation level of ninety-nine, he seemed far too insignificant.

"So that's how it is, God?" Moon murmured softly, his eyes flickering slightly.

"Go on."

Xuanzi nodded and then recounted the selection process in detail, especially Lin Yun's terrifying soul ring ratio. Even just recounting it left everyone in the Sea God Pavilion speechless.

"Divine test...divine!" Zhang Lexuan, sitting at the end, had a slight change in expression.

When a person willingly falls into a state of being in love, their IQ drops without limit. Zhang Lexuan is now smitten with Lin Yun no matter what she looks at, and pink bubbles are even forming in her mind when she thinks of Lin Yun.

The strategist puts himself into the game, thus gaining a significant advantage over fate!

I, Zhang Lexuan, can only brainwash Lin Yun by first brainwashing myself!

In the Sea God Pavilion, Zhang Lexuan was the only one with such a unique way of thinking, and her style was a bit off. The other elders all looked at her with unusual fervor.

This fervor isn't about anything in particular; it's directly directed at the word "God."

They are a force with a clear divine lineage. The statues of Tang San and his seven companions stand at the entrance of Shrek Academy, and the golden ancient tree they are sitting on also testifies to the authenticity of their divine lineage.

No force in the Douluo Continent believed in the existence of gods more than Shrek Academy.

Now that Xuanzi has stated that Lin Yun has obtained the divine inheritance, how can this not drive the Shrek Academy group of fanatics crazy?

Aside from the deep-thinking Mu En and the love-struck Zhang Lexuan, even Xuanzi himself had a fanatical devotion to the existence of God on his face.

However, after the initial excitement, the Shrek crew, who were practically half-buried, regained some of their senses.

"Xuanzi, why are you so sure that Lin Yun has passed the divine test? What evidence do you have?" Elder Song spoke first, his tone skeptical.

That's right, why is Xuanzi so sure?

While there are almost no methods to increase the age of a Soul Ring, they are not entirely nonexistent. Shrek Academy, as a force with a history spanning ten thousand years, has clearly recorded many examples of Soul Masters increasing the age of their Soul Rings.

The most representative example is the Body Sect. Some Soul Masters with a Body Martial Soul can increase the age of their Soul Rings after their Martial Soul undergoes a second awakening.

Currently, the Body Sect has several members with spirit ring ratios exceeding the normal range. In the original story, there was a Body Sect spirit master with a spirit ring ratio of four purple and four black, whose spirit ring age was increased due to the second awakening of his Body Martial Soul.

Besides the Body Sect, Evil Soul Masters can also increase the age of their Soul Rings.

Those inhuman, ghostly creatures are cunning and unpredictable. They not only take pleasure in killing, leaving rivers of blood in their wake, but they also use killing to enhance their strength. Whether you are a Soul Master or an ordinary person, if you encounter an evil Soul Master, you will either be tortured to death or have your soul imprisoned and tormented for eternity.

Even spirit beasts can become nourishment for the growth of evil spirit masters.

Flesh and blood, essence and spirit...

If Lin Yun's true martial soul is not his original form, is it possible that Lin Yun is actually an evil soul master?

Old Song posed a profound question.

If Lin Yun knew that the old fogies of the Sea God Pavilion suspected him of being an evil soul master, he would probably be thinking of wiping them out with the Star Beast Tide. Putting him, the Golden Dragon King, together with that bunch of disgusting things is just pure sabotage.

Faced with Elder Song's pointed question, Xuanzi simply smiled and countered, "While there have been many examples of normal martial souls degenerating into evil martial souls, young Song, do you really think it was necessary for the Golden Dragon, the Ancestor of Power who possessed ultimate strength, to degenerate into an evil soul master?"

Old Song remained silent, while Xuanzi continued to speak: "You are not familiar with Lin Yun, so you don't know him, but I have observed him. When he took the freshman assessment last year, his soul power level was at most around level thirty-seven or thirty-eight. Half a year has passed, and with the cultivation speed of the ultimate martial soul, he should only have the cultivation of a Soul Master."

"But he broke through to the Soul King level in a strange way, and unprecedentedly, he had a Soul Ring ratio of three black and two red. What surprised me even more was that his cultivation was not weak at all, and the quality of his Soul Power even surpassed that of Xiao Tao, who was already a peerless Martial Soul."

"This means that even if Lin Yun really improved his soul power cultivation and soul ring age through the methods of an evil soul master, his soul power could not be so solid. He would have had to kill a lot to improve his ultimate martial soul level ten soul power and improve two or three ten-thousand-year soul rings, but Lin Yun did not have any bloody smell or evil feeling of being haunted by vengeful spirits like an evil soul master."

Xuanzi's words were clear: he was both trying to remove Lin Yun's title of "evil soul master" and to confirm that he possessed divine knowledge and was a successor of a deity.

If Lin Yun were just a wild Soul Master with no background, Xuanzi would either choose to coerce or entice him to join Shrek Academy, or he would turn him into an evil Soul Master that everyone hates, and then personally take action to reap the fruits that Lin Yun had once obtained.

But Lin Yun has powerful backers, so Xuanzi can only incite the entire Shrek Academy to take action so that he can profit from it.

As expected of the Supreme Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult, he's truly determined to destroy Shrek!

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao both gave Xuanzi a thumbs up.

"Therefore, Lin Yun absolutely cannot be an evil soul master. His martial soul and soul power both prove this fact." Xuanzi's tone left no room for doubt. "The only remaining possibility is that he improved his soul power level and soul ring age by passing the divine test, and it's also possible that he consumed immortal herbs or absorbed soul bones!"

In short: Lin Yun radiated the glow of money from head to toe!

As Mu En, who was sitting in the first seat, listened, he felt increasingly uneasy. His gaze towards Xuan Zi changed repeatedly, eventually becoming sharp and piercing.

You bastard, what the hell are you planning to do to Shrek again?

Moon's head was on fire, and his eyes were turning green.
