Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 200 The Title Girl Was Kidnapped by the Author

Outside the Star Emperor Hotel, a cold wind blew by, and pedestrians on the street couldn't help but shiver and look up at the sky with some confusion.

Why did a cold wind suddenly blow through the bright sun?

What they didn't know was that the cold wind was carrying the corpse of a Title Douluo.

Inside the hotel.

Lin Yun tossed the (Cheng) in his hand and casually stuffed it into the storage soul tool he left behind after his death. As for the property in the soul tool, Lin Yun transferred it all to his own pocket.

Cheng Gang was incredibly poor. As a titled Douluo, his total net worth was less than ten million gold soul coins, and he had absolutely no precious materials or treasures.

I have no idea how he became a Title Douluo and Star Luo Envoy; he's a penniless wretch.

Even though Lin Yun had no expectations in this regard, he still felt an urge to whip him to death.

After resolving the issues with Golden Dragon Death Scythe and Cheng Gang, Lin Yun glanced at the sky and realized it was still early. So he took out another box from his soul tool, placed it in front of him, and casually woke up Old Deng, who was sleeping in his spiritual sea.

"Electra, you're more familiar with breaking curses than I am. Could you help me solve this problem with this piece of Life Gold?" Lin Yun said.

Electrolux's phantom appeared silently, and he gently snapped his fingers with his right hand, igniting a cluster of pure white purifying flames at his fingertips.

After casually smearing the purifying fire onto the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade, Electrox turned back to the Sea of ​​Spirit and continued his deep sleep.

He only left behind one sentence.

"Remember to keep an eye on that little girl I met before. I'm counting on her to be my successor in necromancy."

Lin Yun also remembered the fighting spirit princess named Xue Qingci, and nodded to indicate that he would pay attention.

Moreover, Lin Yun already had some ideas in mind. Perhaps he could use her identity to plot some schemes, but this matter still needed careful consideration.

Neither Electrolux nor Lin Yun paid attention to the condition of the Life Gold. After being smeared with a cluster of purifying fire, the curse on the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife melted away like ice and snow.

The Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, with its dark green color and black patterns, returned to its true form as the Gold of Life after the Purifying Flame was extinguished.

Emerald green, crystal clear, and full of life.

Lin Yun had absolute confidence in Electrolux. In the original story, Electrolux, who was half-dead, was able to handle the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife. Having recovered for several years with the help of the Life Gold, purifying the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was a piece of cake for him.

It's not difficult at all.

The cleansing of life force is only effective the first time. Even if Lin Yun were to fuse with the life-giving metal again, he wouldn't be able to gain much improvement.

Essentially, Lin Yun's body was already in a state with almost no impurities. In addition, he had already fused with the Life Gold, so his body could always maintain its peak condition before the previous piece of Life Gold was exhausted.

Even if this piece of Living Gold is fused, it can only increase the total amount of the original piece of Living Gold.

Perhaps during the process of the two living beings merging, the renewed burst of vitality could benefit Lin Yun, but the commotion would be quite significant.

In a place like Xingluo City, it is clearly not suitable to carry out this kind of operation.

Lin Yun wasn't in a hurry.

This piece of living gold can be kept for now. If any dangerous operations are needed in the future, the life force that bursts out when the two pieces of living gold are combined can be used to carry out the operation.

After putting away the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, Lin Yun entered a meditative state, recovering the energy and spirit that had been almost completely drained by the Golden Dragon Death Scythe. This process was not short; the depletion of energy and spirit was not something that could be easily replenished. Even though Lin Yun had no shortage of spiritual herbs and possessed valuable items like the Life Gold, it still took him more than ten days to recover to his peak condition.

Qi, blood, and soul core are replenished, the sea of ​​spirit is full of vitality, and the soul power surging in the meridians is endless.

Lin Yun did not leave empty-handed during this seclusion.

The replenishment after extreme depletion not only made Lin Yun's spiritual power and blood energy more solid, but also broke through his soul power level from level 56 to level 57.

At his original cultivation speed, it would have taken him at least another month to break through to level 57. The awakening of the Golden Dragon Death Scythe actually accelerated this process for him.

During the time Lin Yun was recovering from his breakthrough, Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan also fully recovered from their injuries. Ling Luochen had already recovered the day after Lin Yun killed Cheng Gang, while Yao Haoxuan was fully healed three days after Ling Luochen.

During these ten days, Shrek Academy played four rounds of round-robin matches, winning all four and advancing to the top sixteen with the highest group standings.

With Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan back to their peak, plus Ma Xiaotao, the Shrek team could easily win even without Lin Yun.

This suited Lin Yun's wishes perfectly. After all, he was just there to slack off, and showing off was the most he could do. How could he possibly work himself to the bone to help Shrek Academy win the championship? He wanted them to work hard on their own.

Will Lin Yun's slacking-off attitude cause dissatisfaction among other team members?

Absolutely not.

What does "slacking off" mean?

Lin Yun didn't want to steal all the limelight by himself, so he gave us more opportunities to perform. We are so grateful that we would never blame him.

Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan said this.

If Lin Yun really plays seriously, then Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan won't stand a chance in this tournament. Just him and Ma Xiaotao alone could easily crush the other teams.

Having finally managed to represent Shrek Academy in the Soul Fighting Tournament, how could the two of them be willing to come and be spectators?

You could say they were even grateful to Lin Yun.

The two of them misinterpreted Lin Yun's reason for "seclusion and cultivation" as giving them a chance to take the stage.

This was something Lin Yun hadn't expected.

After the round-robin tournament ends, the knockout stage of the round of 16 will follow, along with the major plot before the knockout stage: the Top Item Auction.

The auction will be held tomorrow night.

"Everyone, what do you all think? Should we go check out this auction?" Wang Yan asked the crowd, a dozen or so vermilion invitations with gold lettering laid out in front of him.

Lin Yun was among them. After fully recovering, he didn't want to stay in his room all day, so he went out for a walk and happened to encounter this scene.

"Sure, why not? We won all the round-robin matches, and I've recovered. Going to the auction will help me relax and cheer on the team for the round of 16," Lin Yun said.

Cheer them on, but that's just an excuse. The real purpose is to go and see if there's anything good there.
