Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

This is not only a sacrifice to the Evil Emperor, but also an opportunity to help the disciples of the Holy Spirit Sect improve their cultivation.

The evil soul masters’ martial souls are all kinds of strange, but without exception, they can improve their cultivation through some special methods, just like Lin Xiao.

Even though the Holy Spirit Church now has the Sun-Moon Empire to help cover up, the disciples of the Holy Spirit Church still have to be careful about what they do on a daily basis. But here, they can "party" to their heart's content.

Lin Xiao did not join the Holy Spirit Sect disciples, but the soul power surging in his body could not be hidden from the perception of so many Titled Douluo present.

However, their gaze only stayed on Lin Xiao for a moment before moving elsewhere. A situation like his was very common in the Holy Spirit Church.

Just as the surroundings gradually became noisy, a very familiar voice rang in Lin Xiao's ears.

"Where did you hear the news?"

Lin Xiao raised his head slightly and saw Sleepy Nightmare Douluo standing beside him, staring into his eyes intently.

"I didn't know there was such a big event happening in the sect tonight. I just reached a bottleneck in my cultivation and wanted to ask the teacher for help in hunting spirit rings. The disciples in the branch said that the teacher had returned to the headquarters, so I rushed all the way back."

Lin Xiao bowed slightly and spoke softly.

Sleepy Nightmare Douluo didn't say anything for a long time, but just kept staring at Lin Xiao, as if trying to figure out whether his words were true or not.

Wanhun Douluo on the side seemed to have noticed something and glanced over here.

"No matter how you got this information, now that you're here, it's your good fortune." Sleepy Nightmare Douluo also came to his senses and retracted his gaze. "Don't you want a spirit ring? Come with me."

Having said that, Sleepy Nightmare Douluo turned and walked forward.

Looking up at the Evil Emperor in the sky, then glancing in the direction of Zhongli Wu, Lin Xiao took a step forward and followed.

After passing through the blood mist, Lin Xiao just came to Zhongli Wu and saw him take out a pile of things and put them on the ground. Some of them looked like rare treasures collected from various places.

There were also some that looked like human bones, with blood stains that had not yet dried up and strange patterns carved on them, a bit like the array patterns engraved on soul guides.

"Master, these are some medicinal herbs that can enhance spiritual power, as well as the 'Human Pill' refined by the sect."

Lin Xiao looked down again, but couldn't see any trace of elixir on those human bones.

However, the Evil Emperor didn't care. He just flicked his tentacles and those things disappeared somewhere unknown.

"If I had been able to win that battle, why would I need these things..."

Everyone just pretended not to hear what the Evil Emperor said. This wasn't Zhongli Wu's first encounter with the Evil Emperor, so he probably had heard some things about him.

As for Lin Xiao, he had a vague idea of ​​who his opponent was. Perhaps only Emperor Tian from the Star Dou Great Forest could have caused him such a heavy loss that he still remembered it.

"Well, what do you want?"

The Evil Emperor's voice rang out again. Zhongli Wu then turned around and glanced around, then clasped his fists again, "Master, I need three hundred thousand year soul beasts, one fifty thousand year soul beast, and two twenty thousand year soul beasts."

"Hmm..." The Evil Emperor made a deep sound, "The Evil Demon Forest has been affected by me, and there are indeed many hundred thousand year soul beasts, but three hundred thousand year soul beasts alone are not enough."

Zhongli Wu did not bargain, but clasped his fists again and said, "Master, I will present you with more beast souls later."

The Evil Emperor stopped talking, but the crack in the air slowly opened and closed again. It was unknown whether it accepted Zhongli Wu's conditions.

Lin Xiao stood aside and roughly understood what was going on.

The reason why the forest where the Holy Spirit Church is located is named "Devil" is not only because the Evil Eye Tyrant Overlord lives in it, but also because the soul beasts in the Demon Forest are influenced by the Evil Emperor and their abilities are somewhat strange.

Ordinary soul masters are naturally not interested in these strange soul beasts, but for evil soul masters, the soul beasts here are exactly the most suitable soul beasts for them.

However, hunting soul beasts in the Demonic Forest still depended on the attitude of the Evil Emperor. Each sacrifice, in addition to offering blood and food to the Evil Emperor, also required obtaining his consent to hunt soul beasts.

It can also be seen that Zhongli Wu’s real purpose is the three hundred thousand year soul beasts. As for the fifty thousand year soul beast and the other two twenty thousand year soul beasts he needs, they are also just "extras".

Just as Lin Xiao was thinking, the light in the sky suddenly shook, and the dark red light shining on everyone split in the middle. A crack appeared in the space, and a huge soul beast slowly emerged from it.

Such a close distance allowed Lin Xiao to clearly sense the strange power rising around him. It was different from soul power and mental power. It was the power of space mastered by the Evil Emperor.

The soul beast before them was nowhere to be found one moment, and the next moment it was right in front of them. Disregarding distance, this was merely the most basic manifestation of spatial power.

As the first soul beast emerged, one figure after another appeared here one by one. Zhongli Wu grabbed one of them and threw it in front of Lin Xiao.

Looking down, he saw a soul beast that looked somewhat like a lizard, but without scales. Instead, it resembled the tentacles of the Evil Emperor, its slippery skin clinging to a thick liquid. Its color wasn't the dark red of the Evil Emperor, but a mixture of black and white, making it inconspicuous in the dim forest.

This was probably some soul beast that was influenced by the Evil Emperor's bloodline and mutated, or maybe it was originally a descendant of the Evil Emperor, but mutated to look like this.

It was only a little over a meter long, but it exuded the aura of a true ten-thousand-year-old spirit beast. It was unknown what had happened to it, but it was already dying when it appeared before Lin Xiao.

"Thank you, Master."

Zhongli Wu saluted with his fists clasped in the air, and Lin Xiao, standing behind him, also bent down in response.

Not to mention that this Evil Emperor is quite particular. When he is asleep, he does not allow the people of the Holy Spirit Church to hunt the soul beasts in the Evil Demon Forest. But if he is paid enough, he can also make the soul beast look like this and personally deliver it to everyone.

The "carnival" of the evil soul master behind him was still going on. Apart from the voices of the Holy Spirit Church disciples, there were no other sounds of the "sacrifices". Only the blood mist around him became thicker.

Lin Xiao looked at the soul beast under his feet and did not look back.

"You are lucky. This soul beast has the blood of the Lord."

Zhongli Wu turned around and saw Lin Xiao's expression. He thought that he didn't know the origin of this soul beast. "For us, the soul beasts in this evil forest are the most suitable for us. Feel free to absorb them."

Zhongli Wu said this and glanced at Sleepy Nightmare Douluo again, but in the end he said nothing more.

Hearing this, Lin Xiao stepped forward and grabbed the soul beast. As a Super Douluo, Zhongli Wu understood cultivation better than himself, and also understood the spirits of evil soul masters better.

Chapter 78 The Sixth Soul Ring

As time passed, the blood mist around him gradually dissipated. After the Evil Emperor had enjoyed his blood meal, the overwhelming pressure gradually disappeared, and the disciples of the Holy Spirit Sect also woke up.

Zhongli Wu and several elders slowly saluted in the direction the Evil Emperor had disappeared, then led the others away. Soon, it was as if nothing had happened here, with only a few inconspicuous drops of blood stained the surrounding trees.

When everyone returned to the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters, the sun's rays could already be vaguely seen on the horizon. Although the Evil Emperor had long since disappeared, the Demon Forest was still silent. The soul beasts here could sense the Evil Emperor's aura better than humans.

"I still need to discuss matters within the sect with a few elders. You're lucky. The Sect Leader personally asked for a soul beast for you. Go back and absorb it."

Inside the headquarters, Sleepy Nightmare Douluo spoke in a sinister tone. Although his voice hadn't changed much, Lin Xiao, having known Sleepy Nightmare Douluo for a long time, could still detect a slight difference in his tone from usual.

The soul beast in his hand had almost stopped breathing. Lin Xiao knew that it would die soon, so without saying anything, he turned and walked towards the disciple's residence.

After turning a corner, Lin Xiao glanced back and saw Sleepy Nightmare Douluo and Ten Thousand Souls Douluo walking together, their backs slowly disappearing into the passage.

After witnessing the sacrifice with his own eyes, Lin Xiao realized that the relationship between the Evil Emperor and the Holy Spirit Church was not as simple as allowing the Holy Spirit Church to freely enter and exit the Demon Forest. On the contrary, the relationship between the Evil Emperor and the Holy Spirit Church was closer than he had expected.

This was the first time Lin Xiao saw the Evil Emperor awake, but twenty years before the Evil Emperor fell asleep, no one knew what kind of deal the Holy Spirit Church had made with it or what it had gained from it.

"Bang-"

The door of the stone chamber slammed shut. Lin Xiao raised his hand and threw the 50,000-year-old lizard-like soul beast to the ground. He then shook his hands to wipe off the mucus on them.

I don’t know what changes have taken place in the skin of this soul beast, but it has become slippery because of the mucus. Lin Xiao has changed hands several times along the way.

Seeing that it would not live for much longer, the light of the storage soul guide in Lin Xiao's hand flashed, and a dagger appeared in his hand. With a "swish", it pierced into the soul beast's head.

The soul beast struggled violently, its limbs waving continuously, but soon the frequency of the waving slowed down.

Lin Xiao looked at the soul beast on the ground, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected that this soul beast not only looked similar to the Evil Emperor's tentacles, but also felt similar when pierced, soft and spongy, as if it had no bones.

Seeing that it stopped struggling, Lin Xiao knew that it would not be long before its soul ring would appear, so he sat aside and let the soul power in his body calm down.

Raising his right palm, the red spider lily blossomed in his palm. Without opening his eyes, Lin Xiao communicated with his spirit and martial soul, and instantly felt countless residual souls wandering in the pistil.

One of the figures wasn't aimless like the other remnant souls, but instead was dashing around with full energy. Seeing this, Lin Xiao smiled slightly, then shifted his consciousness aside.

There, the assassin's soul was standing quietly, waiting for Lin Xiao's order.

With a thought, the assassin's soul in the pistil disappeared instantly. Instead, a figure appeared in Lin Xiao's sea of ​​consciousness, moving forward slowly as if by instinct.

The soul and mental power are not exactly the same, but there are some similarities. This assassin is good at hiding his body, and now that he has become like this, it is even more difficult for others to notice him.

In addition to some soul masters who are good at mental power and soul, using it to deal with enemies often has unexpected effects. It would be better to "make" some more when there is a chance in the future.

The soul power in Lin Xiao's body has completely calmed down. Feeling the soul he is controlling, he suddenly realized that something is wrong.

Logically speaking, the soul ring of the soul beast just now should have appeared.

Lin Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the ground. The lizard-like soul beast was still lying there, but its head was smooth. There was no sign that it had just been pierced by a dagger.

Instead, blood continued to flow out of the long tail, spreading across a large area on the ground.

Lin Xiao looked at it carefully and his eyes narrowed slightly.

No wonder he felt no bone resistance after the dagger pierced his head. It was obvious that the dagger did not penetrate the vital part.

Is this instinct? But how did it hide it from my eyes?

Lin Xiao thought secretly in his heart, and the dagger in his hand appeared again. He chose the right time and stabbed it down suddenly.

However, at this moment, the soul beast's body suddenly bounced up from the ground, and its body instantly split into two and ran away to the left and right. A large pool of blood splashed towards Lin Xiao, blocking his vision.

Lin Xiao's eyes changed. He ignored the blood flying towards him and quickly turned his head to look at the door. He raised his wrist and a dark red light fell towards the empty space.

The next moment, the soul beast's body actually crashed straight into the Seed of the Other Shore shot by Lin Xiao.

If this soul beast was in its prime, it would probably be able to sense Lin Xiao's movements. However, even Lin Xiao would not have it easy facing a 50,000-year-old soul beast.

But since it was brought here by the Evil Emperor, it was already in a dying state. Even though it had just escaped a fatal blow with its unknown ability and took the opportunity to pretend to be dead to recover some strength, it was still no match for when it was intact.

The Seed of the Other Shore sank into the soul beast's body. Following a shrill cry, its body was tightly bound by several branches and leaves that spread out from its body, and it fell to the ground again.

Lin Xiao then raised his hand to wipe the blood off his face, and his eyes fell on the huge tail beside him.

After staring for a while, he turned around to look at the soul beast, only to find that there was nothing behind it, as if it had never had a tail.

The soul beast's methods were truly miraculous. If Lin Xiao hadn't predicted its escape direction in the Holy Spirit Cult's room, it would have already escaped.

Looking at the surface of the soul beast again, the black and white skin has become wrinkled, and the flesh and blood underneath is constantly flowing away. Instead, the branches and leaves growing on its body are becoming more and more lush, and soon several bright red flowers of the other shore bloom.

Lin Xiao stood there motionless until a dark soul ring slowly rose up, and then he felt relieved.

Without hesitation, he sat cross-legged next to the soul beast, and with a pull of his soul power, the soul ring floated towards Lin Xiao.

Sticky.

This was Lin Xiao’s first feeling.

This wasn't his first time obtaining a spirit ring, but it was somewhat different from the previous times. Because his martial spirit, the martial spirits he had previously absorbed were all related to death, every time he absorbed a spirit ring, he felt nothing but silence and death.

Chapter 79 Another Dream

However, there is something different about the soul ring of this soul beast.

Lin Xiao could feel a cold power in its soul ring, which was somewhat similar to the Evil Emperor he had just met, but much thinner.
