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

"Lord Holy Envoy."

Lin Xiao nodded and was about to continue walking inside, but suddenly thought of something and turned around.

Sure enough, beneath the black cloak appeared a pair of dark purple eyes that were familiar to him. The light in their eyes had disappeared, leaving only numbness, no different from other Holy Spirit Church disciples.

Lin Xiao paused, but ultimately said nothing. If he hadn't had the memories of his past life to support him, he would have been no different from the disciples here.

Pressing the mask on his face, Lin Xiao walked back into the headquarters. When he was some distance away, his dark purple eyes suddenly lit up as he watched his back disappear into the depths of the corridor.

"Great Elder."

The rooms in the Holy Spirit Church headquarters were not overly luxurious. Even the Grand Elder's residence was only furnished with a few simple items, and was only slightly more humid than the other rooms.

"You're finally here." The Great Elder seemed to have been waiting for a long time. After seeing Lin Xiao, he immediately stood up and stretched out his hand.

Lin Xiao looked down and saw something lying quietly in the palm of the Great Elder's hand. It looked like it was made up of many small parts. The front end was shield-shaped, with a ring structure attached to the bottom, and other small protrusions on both sides.

It was emitting a faint azure light in the hands of the Great Elder, and it looked like a ball of sea water spread out in the palm of his hand.

"Great Elder, this is..."

Lin Xiao looked at it and felt that it seemed familiar, but for a moment he didn't dare to confirm it.

"This is a soul bone."

"Soul bone?" Lin Xiao took another closer look, but the soul bone in the elder's hand did not seem to be any of the six soul bones.

"That's right." The Great Elder nodded. "Do you know that among the soul bones that soul beasts can produce, in addition to the six main soul bones, there is also a kind of external soul bone. The one I have is one of them."

"It is the larynx of the mermaid clan."

Can the larynx also form soul bones?

Lin Xiao was a little surprised. In his impression, the hyoid bone did not seem to be a real bone.

But if you think about it carefully, the evil eye of the Evil Emperor can become an external soul bone, and the larynx is at least closer to the skeleton than the eyes.

Lin Xiao raised his head slightly and looked at the Great Elder's face, but he couldn't see the Great Elder's expression clearly because of the cloak.

He had done so many things to help Sleepy Nightmare Douluo before but got nothing in return. Now, before they even set off, the Great Elder took out an external soul bone, which made Lin Xiao think more.

"Take it and absorb it quickly." The Great Elder stretched out his hand again. "I promised you before that I would help you solve the problem of diving into the deep sea. This larynx will give you the ability to breathe underwater."

"As for the soul skills that come with it, I'm not very clear about them either. Try them out yourself."

Looking at the hand extended by the Great Elder, Lin Xiao hesitated slightly. This was an external soul bone. Not only would it not occupy the space of other soul bones, it could even evolve along with the soul master's cultivation level.

Regardless of the level of cultivation of the soul beast it came from, its value can be compared to a hundred thousand year soul bone, or even slightly exceed it.

Even for a soul beast like the Great Elder, the inability to absorb soul bones makes the value of this throat bone much lower to her, but since she can produce such a thing with just one move, what she wants Lin Xiao to do is probably more important than expected.

Either the danger of this matter far exceeded Lin Xiao's expectations, or the importance of this matter to the Great Elder was far greater than a soul bone.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Xiao raised his hand and took the soul bone from the great elder.

The fact that the Great Elder had even brought out something like this showed how serious this matter was to her. Regardless of the specifics of what was to be done, at this point, there was no turning back.

By absorbing this larynx, he could gain the ability to breathe underwater, and perhaps even escape with the help of seawater.

"Thank you, Great Elder."

"Just absorb it here. I'll watch you."

The Great Elder stood up and made room for the bed beside him. There was no sign that anyone had ever lived there.

She herself is not often at the headquarters, and as a sea soul beast, she probably doesn't rest like humans.

Lin Xiao looked at her again, and finally took a step forward and sat down cross-legged, placing the mermaid's larynx in the palms of his hands, slowly closed his eyes, and his consciousness sank into the sea of ​​​​spiritual consciousness.

"Teacher, have you found anything else on this soul bone?"

Perhaps because he had never met such a generous person in the Holy Spirit Church, Lin Xiao was always a little worried about this soul bone.

"No." Electrolux's voice sounded slowly, "Are you worried about what will happen next?"

"Yeah." Lin Xiao nodded. "The Great Elder can even take out something like an external soul bone. What he has to do is probably not simple."

"Alas." Electrolux sighed softly, not knowing why. "Don't worry, just do it. If your life is really in danger, I have a way to get you out of trouble."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao felt relieved. The soul power surged in his meridians, and the soul bone in his palm suddenly turned into a blue light and penetrated into his neck.

Soon, his entire face was reflected in blue.

Chapter 176 Under the Deep Sea

The Great Elder looked at the fluctuations of soul power on Lin Xiao's body, finally nodded slightly, turned around and left the room. Outside the door, there were already two other figures standing there quietly.

"Great Elder."

The cloak on one of their heads was slightly lifted, and it turned out to be the Wanhun Douluo who was sent to the Xingluo Empire.

Even though they were both elders, Wanhun Douluo was still extremely respectful in front of the Great Elder.

"I've made it very clear in my letter to you. I'm calling you back this time just to fulfill what I promised you."

"Yes, I understand." Wanhun Douluo nodded repeatedly.

"But I have to be frank. I promised you that I would hand over the things you promised me, but you will have to bear the consequences yourself."

"Don't worry, I've already thought about this." Wanhun Douluo's tone was noticeably excited. "Sea soul beasts can't stay on land for long. Even if they notice me, I just need to stay away for a while and they'll naturally return."

The Great Elder glanced at Wanhun Douluo upon hearing this and said, "As long as you think it through clearly, it will be fine."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and looked towards her room, feeling the fluctuations of soul power emitted by Lin Xiao when he absorbed the soul bone.

"I've waited too long. Whether this will succeed depends on this time."

Lin Xiao naturally had no way of knowing what the Great Elder and the others were saying outside the door. At this moment, he only felt as if he was immersed in sea water. A cool and moist feeling spread from his throat, and his whole body seemed to be cleansed.

As the soul power in the soul bone gradually flowed into the body, an inexplicable feeling rushed straight to the sea of ​​​​spiritual energy. The next moment, the river in Lin Xiao's sea of ​​​​spiritual energy, which symbolized the spiritual power, kept undulating, and the spiritual power was actually also slowly increasing.

It is worthy of being the soul bone of the mermaid clan who are good at mental power. Although it is not the skull, the larynx close to the head also allows his mental power to be enhanced.

A faint green light rose from beneath his skin, and the power of the Life Gold within his body spread to his limbs and bones as he absorbed the soul bone. Invisible changes occurred throughout Lin Xiao's body, and his consciousness finally sank completely into meditation...

In the north of the Sun and Moon Empire, several streaks of light streaked across the sky.

Lin Xiaofei was in the air, and his eyes once again swept over the Ten Thousand Souls Douluo and the Hate Douluo beside the Great Elder.

It was already the next day after Lin Xiao completely absorbed the soul bone. He did not expect that as soon as he walked out of the Great Elder's room, he saw Wanhun Douluo who had arrived from the Xingluo Empire at some point.

He originally thought that Zhongli Wu was going to recall the people sent to the three empires, and he was nervous for a moment, but he soon realized that these two people were also acting with the Great Elder.

With Lin Xiao's soul power level close to level 80, the speed of his flying soul guide when he used all his strength was not much slower than that of a Titled Douluo, and they soon arrived near the ice sea.

Looking at the endless ocean in front of him, Lin Xiao looked up at the great elder in the front.

She hadn't said a word along the way, but now was the time to tell him what it was that she was asking him to get, right?

The cold wind from high in the sky brought a biting chill, making the cloaks of several people rustle.

The wide cloak on the Great Elder's head was also blown slightly, revealing half of his face that looked just like a human, without any trace of a sea soul beast.

"Follow the plan."

The Great Elder suddenly said something, then reached out and grabbed Lin Xiao's wrist.

Before Lin Xiao could see clearly how the Great Elder made her move, his right hand was already uncontrollably grabbed by her. He subconsciously tried to pull it away, but even after pulling it twice, it still didn't move at all.

The Great Elder, who had never shown much aura, finally explained to Lin Xiao at this time why she could become the Great Elder of the Holy Spirit Sect among all the Titled Douluo.

Before Lin Xiao could react, he was taken to the sea by the Great Elder. The air that kept retreating from his ears brought a bone-chilling chill that kept hitting his face, making it difficult for him to open his eyes.

The next moment, he heard a "crash" sound, and an even colder feeling suddenly spread throughout his body, making him shiver unconsciously.

The pressure of the sea water came from all directions, and before he could react, a large mouthful of sea water poured into his mouth.

"Don't resist. Try to breathe like you do on shore."

The voice of the Great Elder came from his ears, and Lin Xiao remembered that he had absorbed the larynx of the mermaid clan.

He tried to inhale the sea water into his mouth like breathing, and in an instant, the fishy and salty taste filled his entire mouth. However, just as the sea water rushed to his throat, an inexplicable force pushed it out of his body.

Lin Xiao felt his mouth filled with sea water. Although he was not used to it for a while, he did not feel suffocated.

He filtered out the air mixed in the sea water like a fish, but not through the gills, but through the larynx.

Turning around, the Great Elder seemed to have completely merged into the icy sea. The surrounding sea water did not bring her any hindrance, and her movements became more flexible.

"How does it feel?"

"is acceptable."

"Then try going deeper."

The Great Elder never let go of the hand that was holding Lin Xiao's right wrist, and she did not make any other movements, but her body suddenly dived deeper into the ice sea.

The surroundings became increasingly darker, and the light above the sea surface could no longer reach the bottom of the sea. Except for a few scattered soul beasts that could emit light, the rest of the place was completely dark.

The pressure brought by the sea water also increased significantly. The cold sea water not only took away the temperature of Lin Xiao's body, but also squeezed his body. He seemed to hear the sound of bones being squeezed.

"now what?"

Lin Xiao opened his mouth, but the immense pressure against his throat made it difficult for him to speak. The soul power in his body continued to flow through his meridians, filling his entire body beneath his skin.

After feeling it for a moment, he nodded slightly.

"Okay, now I'm taking you to the depths of the icy sea. You have to adapt to living under this kind of pressure during this time."

As the Great Elder spoke, he suddenly rushed forward.

"I've already said that the place you're going to is the palace of the Sea Princess family, and what you want to take is the Heart of the Ocean that they enshrine in the palace."

Lin Xiao turned his head slightly and glanced at the Great Elder.

In his impression, the Heart of the Ocean, as the most precious treasure of the Sea Princess family, seemed to be usable only by their royal bloodline.

Even if others stole it, they would not be able to utilize its power. Could it be that the origin of the great elder in front of him is related to the royal family of the Sea Princess?

The Great Elder didn't care what Lin Xiao was thinking. He just kept describing to him the structure of the palace and the location of the Heart of the Ocean. It sounded like he was very familiar with the Sea Princess's palace.

Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow and can't stay up too late tonight. I will make up the next chapter tomorrow.
