Douluo Continent II: The Dragon Breaks the Nine Heavens

Chapter 265 Electrolux's Strange Mechanism

Neither Xixi nor Xue Qingci noticed Lin Yun's arrival. Instead, it was old man Electrolux who quietly appeared beside Lin Yun.

It's quite normal for Elex to discover him if he didn't deliberately hide himself, after all, this old man was once a half-step god-king.

Calling him a powerful and capable individual would not be an exaggeration.

Lin Yun didn't try to hide himself when he arrived, so it's normal that Electrolux noticed him.

You must know that this is deep in the Star Dou Great Forest, the most authentic lair of soul beasts. Even though Di Tian has declared that no soul beast is allowed to approach this valley, who can guarantee that no soul beasts will come here?

Even if it was just by accident.

Therefore, Electrolux felt it was still necessary to keep an eye on things and see if any uninvited guests approached.

If some incredibly clever person suddenly barges in and injures or even kills Xixi or Xue Qingci, then Electrolux will be in a difficult position.

The moment Lin Yun arrived in the valley, Electrolux noticed him and then appeared directly in front of him.

"Hey old Electrolux, long time no see!" Lin Yun greeted Electrolux with a smile.

Although he no longer resides in Lin Yun's spiritual sea, their relationship remains unchanged. The first person Electrolux encountered upon arriving in Douluo Continent was Lin Yun, and he received much help from Lin Yun. These are unbreakable bonds!

"Hehe, it seems your strength has recovered quite well?" Electrox smiled and nodded, then asked in surprise after sensing Lin Yun's aura.

According to the power system of the Holy Demon Continent, Lin Yun is almost past the mid-stage and entering the late-stage powerhouse stage.

The same applies to Douluo Continent.

Soul Master and Soul Saint each represent two watershed moments in the Soul Master system.

Most Soul Masters with insufficient talent will never have the chance to break through to level 30 in their lifetime. The Martial Soul True Body, as the strongest means of a Soul Master, also marks a Soul Master's complete entry into the Hall of Strongest.

As for the titled Douluo, it represents the highest combat power in the Douluo Continent. Becoming a titled Douluo means reaching the peak, but it is not a clear dividing line.

Of course, this rule was broken during the Douluo Continent II: The Legend of Tang Dynasty.

Because Title Douluo powerhouses possess something that even powerhouses from ten thousand years ago didn't have: a Soul Core. Possessing a Soul Core also marks the third watershed moment in the Soul Master system.

Early stage... Mid-stage... Late stage.

At less than fourteen years old, Lin Yun achieved what 99% of other Soul Masters could never achieve in their entire lives.

Even if Electrolux was once a genius, he couldn't help but marvel at Lin Yun's talent and aptitude. However, after considering that Lin Yun was once a strong person, this feeling faded a lot.

If he were to walk the path of the strong again, although he would most likely not be as good as Lin Yun, he probably wouldn't be too far behind.

Throughout his life, Electrolux was second to none!

Well, Old Deng would never admit that he almost admired Lin Yun just now; at most, he would just tell Lin Yun, "You're amazing."

However, Lin Yun wasn't complacent about this. With such a cheat code, the entire soul beast clan as his backing, and the memories and foresight of a transmigrator as his foundation, if he still couldn't achieve these things, what difference would there be between him, a transmigrator, and a precious object? Lin Yun simply made a few modest remarks and moved on from the topic, instead asking about Xue Qingci and Xixi's performance.

Electrolux readily told Lin Yun about their situation.

There's not much to say about Xue Qingci, after all, she was Old Deng's own apprentice. In Electrox's eyes, her performance was at most mediocre. Her attributes matched his necromancy heritage, and her talent and hard work were also noticed by Electrox.

But perhaps because Xue Qingci doesn't have Huo Gua's protagonist buff, as a native of Douluo Continent, her learning of necromancy always feels like a rabbit citizen learning American language.

The most striking thing is... it's hard to explain in a few words.

Especially in the first few days of learning, it made the archmage Electrox doubt his life and his judgment in choosing a disciple.

Thanks to Xue Qingci's own hard work, she didn't stubbornly persist in things she didn't understand and asked questions whenever she needed to. This helped her gradually improve. As she delved deeper into the magic she learned, the difficulties and obstacles she encountered when learning necromancy became smaller and smaller.

Overall, Electrolux's assessment of her was rather unremarkable; she relied entirely on hard work to get by.

But that's enough. As long as you're willing to work hard and put your heart into it, you can always learn necromancy.

On the contrary, it was Xixi's performance that caught Ilex's attention. He could see the hatred in the little girl's heart, because he himself had once been ignited by the flames of anger, which ultimately set the entire Holy Demon Continent ablaze.

Electrolux seemed to have triggered some strange mechanism, and began to persuade Sisi not to let anger and hatred blind her.

Xi Xi wasn't as obsessed as Huo Yuhao in the original story, and she easily understood what Electrolux was saying.

He wanted to tell himself that revenge was acceptable, but it shouldn't involve innocent people, and he shouldn't lose himself completely in the pursuit of revenge.

Don't implicate the innocent?

To put it another way, doesn't that mean that when she destroys Shrek Academy, she shouldn't involve the students of the academy?

After all, it was the higher-ups of Shrek Academy who betrayed her, those incompetent and selfish old fogies in the Sea God Pavilion, who had nothing to do with the students.

When Xixi was studying at Shrek Academy, she also made many friends. Ling Luochen and Gongyang Mo were actually familiar friends. When Xixi took revenge on Shrek, she would definitely not involve them.

As for the others... Xixi hadn't really thought about it before, since their lives or deaths were none of her concern.

But after hearing Electrolux's words, Xixi suddenly realized that her hatred for Shrek had indeed made her somewhat lost, and she thanked Electrolux repeatedly.

And then... Electrolux nodded with satisfaction.

Nice, you've saved another young man from going astray. I'm truly a mentor and a great philosopher!

Then, the old man turned around and instilled some rather abnormal ideas into his apprentice, Xue Qingci.

As an old man who had lived in Lin Yun's head for several years, he had a certain understanding of Lin Yun and knew that this young man was really hard to judge in some aspects, and that he and his apprentice had both been indebted to each other.

What else can we do?

Tie them up tightly, they must be tied up tightly!

And so, in her dizzy state, Xue Qingci had some strange ideas.
