Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo

Chapter 75 The Eye of the Wind King

"That's more like it, brother. Life is always about facing challenges. Since you're so energetic, I'll give you one last friendly reminder." Lu Mingze revealed his signature sunny, mischievous smile.

"This Poison Dragon is a seasoned otaku; getting him to doze off won't be that easy."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't rush to lose contact, let's chat a little longer." Lu Mingfei shouted loudly, trying to get more useful information, but Lu Mingze was like a mind reader to him, not giving him the chance at all.

"We'll talk about it once you find it."

Lu Mingze suddenly delivered a flying kick, and Lu Mingfei instantly fell off the cliff. When he opened his eyes again, the steep mountain was gone, and only a familiar campfire came into view.

"Mingfei, you're awake?" Bai Baoshan's voice was filled with joy. In just a few minutes, Lu Mingfei had already absorbed the thousand-year soul ring.

"Commissioner Bai, I... I succeeded." Lu Mingfei looked around at his surroundings, took several breaths, and then nodded.

The news about Lu Mingze was so explosive that even though he had broken through, he wasn't particularly surprised.

"Alright, let me see your third soul skill." Bai Baoshan rubbed his hands together, looking expectant. What kind of soul skill could his eye martial soul, which had absorbed the Wind Winged Dragon soul ring for a thousand years, unleash?

Lu Mingfei nodded, closed his eyes, and sensed the third incantation of the new equipment, the instructions for using the Eye of the Wind King. After a moment, he understood.

"My third soul skill is called Wind King's Eye. It has limited offensive power on its own, but it is a very useful combination support skill. Moreover, the effect of the martial soul's mimicry of the dragon's might should have been further enhanced."

As soon as Lu Mingfei finished speaking, he instantly ignited his Golden Eyes. Two yellow and one purple spirit rings floated above Lu Mingfei's head. At the same time, the Golden Eyes burst out with a dazzling light, and an even more magnificent majesty emanated from Lu Mingfei's body.

Just feeling this aura of authority, Bai Baoshan couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive.

As Lu Mingfei uttered a few low murmurs, an invisible domain instantly spread out, and the air within the domain began to flow violently according to Lu Mingfei's will.

In an instant, a small, lying-down storm vortex, nearly three meters in diameter, formed in front of Lu Mingfei. Its speed was so fast that it produced a faint, sharp whistling sound. A moment later, the vortex suddenly exploded violently forward. The huge shockwave was like an out-of-control wind dragon, rushing towards everything in its path. Several layers of sand and gravel were kicked up from the hard ground, and dust flew everywhere.

"What a magnificent Eye of the Wind King!" Bai Baoshan laughed wildly, his entire body enveloped in soul power, which blocked all the dust that was raised.

With his experience as a Soul Master, he naturally saw that this Soul Skill had great potential. It could be used to attack with fire in conjunction with the second Soul Skill, or as a defensive Soul Skill to block the opponent's ranged or melee attacks.

It compensates for the fact that if Lu Mingfei is suppressed at close range, he may be injured by both himself and the enemy when he uses his second soul skill. It is a versatile soul skill with full practicality.

Although the current mainstream Soul Master training program is the extreme approach, a true powerhouse will not have any particular weaknesses. Lu Mingfei's second Soul Skill is already comparable to a thousand years old, and its destructive power is sufficient. Having more practical Soul Skills will also better ensure his future survival rate.

After all, a Soul Master's life of battles can never be summarized by a mere Battle Soul.

"Mingfei, congratulations! This is a very suitable soul skill for you." Bai Baoshan was genuinely happy. It is an extremely lucky thing for a soul master to encounter a suitable soul beast and awaken a suitable soul skill.

"Thank you, Commissioner Bai."

Lu Mingfei bowed solemnly and breathed a sigh of relief. The essence of this Word of Power is to manipulate airflow. Like Jun Yan, it is a Word of Power with an extremely high limit. In particular, the two can be used in combination, which makes Jun Yan's destructive power explode!

The true power of fire is never its explosion, but its temperature.

With the Eye of the Wind King combined with the King's Flame, he can easily more than double the temperature of the basic flame, which is the true power capable of turning the tide of battle.

His previous mechanism was indeed very high, but in terms of lethality, only Jun Yan was comparable. Moreover, due to the inconvenience of training, his lethality lagged behind.

Now, his base attack stats have been boosted, finally allowing him to escape the awkward and weak early game phase.

"You're a Soul Master who can stand on your own now. It's up to you now." Bai Baoshan patted Lu Mingfei's shoulder with satisfaction. "I'll send you away from Sunset Forest now."

"Commissioner Bai, thank you and the other two commissioners for your guidance. Once I've resolved my issues, I will definitely return to the academy to visit you all." Lu Mingfei looked sincerely at Bai Baoshan and nodded. He would always remember the help the three commissioners had given him.

"Don't mention it, good boy. Just remember to take care of yourself." After saying that, Bai Baoshan released his aura, grabbed Lu Mingfei's arm, and began to head towards the outer edge of Sunset Forest. The further out they went, the weaker the soul beasts would become, and they would not encounter any danger.

With a Contra-like figure running at full speed, they reached the edge of Sunset Forest in just half an hour. It was a deserted mountain, located roughly north of the town where they had first entered Sunset Forest.

"Let's go while it's dark; I need to go back to the academy too." Bai Baoshan stroked his beard.

Lu Mingfei nodded slightly, took out the hemp robe he had prepared in advance from his soul tool, put it on, and waved goodbye to Bai Baoshan.

Bai Baoshan watched Lu Mingfei's figure disappear into the horizon and sighed slowly. Then he turned and headed south, but not back to the market town, nor back to Tiandou. Instead, he found a remote place to stay for a couple more days, giving Lu Mingfei more time to leave.

Once he gets back, the news of Lu Mingfei's departure will be impossible to keep quiet. When he gets back, there will probably be a lot of troubles going on there, and things will definitely get very lively.

Regardless of the circumstances, he had won, so being happy was all that mattered. Lu Mingfei didn't go far; he found a corner in the wilderness to sit down and rest, and began to think about the side quest that Lu Mingze had given him.

Originally, there was no chance, but now that I know about the artifact, it's impossible not to be excited.

This might be his leverage to return home. Having already learned so much information, he couldn't give up easily. As for returning when he's stronger, who knows how long that would take?

If some protagonist suddenly appears and takes the items first, he'll have nowhere to turn to cry.

Moreover, although Lu Mingze is usually very sarcastic, he would never really want to kill him. Besides, he has already given a hint, and judging from the other party's attitude, this side quest should not be too dangerous.

"I need to find a place and observe the situation first." Lu Mingfei made up his mind. There was no use in thinking of any more strategies out of thin air. The first step was to find a place.

However, this is the Soul Beast Forest. Even if he can fly, it's not necessarily safe. So he still needs to thoroughly familiarize himself with those Word Spirits first. Otherwise, if he encounters a Soul Beast that can also fly, he'll become easy prey.

"From this moment on, let me see exactly where my current limits lie!"

Lu Mingfei took off his outer robe, and the membrane wings slowly unfolded on his back. With his current Soul Master strength and the physical strength of his dragon form, he should be able to unleash some of the true power of Moment.
