Lin Yue arrived at the soutuo city. After joining in the Soutuo academy, Lin Yue paid for a single dorm and quickly get to work. He summoned his martial soul. A cute dog like creature appeared. This is Luo Sanpuo before adding any martial souls. It's not blotted or anything. It's lean and thin.
Yu Xiaogang's martial soul is also same. Lin Yue tried communicating with his martial soul. And yes, it can act autonomously. Lin Yue asked his martial soul," can you possess me? ", the martial soul seemed to understand him and jumped into his body.
Lin Yue felt a cursing pressure in his body and frowned. Possession seems to be tough, he concentrated and felt his soul power along with his martial soul that is trying to possess him. Like his martial soul he concentrated. He relaxed his body vigilance.
Suddenly his right arm grew one or two scale, they're completely white. But the pressure and rebound from the possession left him dizzy and with ached muscles. He took out his notebook, he read some books while cleaning the library. He made sure to look on the important ones only when no one was watching.
He read a cultivation technique, a medicinal bath recipe, a Body Tempering excercise. Others are also there like the basics of dragon transformation that he used just now. But since his soul power is low and didn't match the safety standard soul power limit, he got the rebound instead.
Clutching his chest, he spat out a small drops of blood. But he indeed felt few things changing in his body. So he decided to try again. He tried other ways like making the martial soul cultivate but losses outway gains and his low soul power which is consumed in a matter of couple of minutes. So it's best to take one step at a time.
Lin Yue bought herbs and whale glue from the market. Taking it after successfully melting it with the help of a teacher, he felt lava going through his intestines, but he is indeed a stubborn person to give up. There is only one for him to grow powerful. Taking immortal herbs, absorbing soul power beyond normal limits, finding strong and powerful soul beasts to be his soul rings.
Otherwise he will remain as a mediocre person. Lin Yue didn't want that. So he dwelled deeper, he used soul beasts at ten year old age ro experiment with his medicinal pills. In his free time, he studied and cultivted.
Meanwhile Yu Xiagang :
" Electric Drake. A sub dragon species and commonly used as the first soul ring for blue lightning tyrant sect. Electric eel, purple lightning lizard, Azure bull python. Hmm, so the family always absorbed lightning and thunder soul rings. Can I absorb the same as them? Afterall my martial soul mutated from blue lightning tyrant dragon. So it's reasonable right? ".
He is flipping through every record, he can find on soul beasts, soul ring and the special traits sole gained.
" So that's it. Someone gained the ability to channel more power as they absorbed the Electric type soul beasts which belongs to dragon race. Can I choose Azure Bull python. But it's extremely rare to find even in the star dou forest. The last time one is seen is nearly 57 years ago ", Yu Xiaogang is contemplating his soul ring.
As for his soul power rise, he didn't care at this moment. With the resources he consumed in the past few months, he is already at level 4. But he didn't know how much the elders are furious. The 3 times main disciple resources became 5 times now. They always complained to Yu Yuanzhen about this. But Yu Yuanzhen let it slide.
Meanwhile Lin Yue also increased his soul power thanks to special recipes of pills he made. He only take them after clearly recording the process and their effects on soul beasts. His level is now at level 3. This is also thanks to his martial soul that refined the medicinal power residues in him preventing anything more injuries and poisoning due to the high medicinal power remaining in his body.
He and his martial soul strived day and night. Lin Yue always encouraged his martial soul to cultivate and never scolded it once unlike Yu Xiaogang who complained about it countless times.
He developed two methods to cultivate with his martial soul quickly. One is to possess his martial soul with extreme difficulty but it yields better results as his cultivation speed increased few times compared to him cultivating alone. Second one is to let his martial soul cultivate independently. This is somewhat difficult as his martial soul needs to be taught how to cultivate.
So for now he is using the first method for now. His target for soul ring is the sacred wyverm. A subdragon that is on par with some dragons like fire dragon and water dragon. It possess not only light attribute but also the lightning attribute he needs. He needs at least a 800-900 year old one to compliment his martial soul growth and recover from the maligant mutation.
Moreover, sacred wyverm is rumoured to possess a trace of sacred dragon bloodline which can compliment his martial soul as it's mutated due to that bloodline exactly. So his relentless training, knowledge acquisition, alchemy trials along with some techniques he is developing based on anime he remembered.
And his restless training earned him the title in soutuo academy - maniac. Yep, people started calling him crazy and it's because of his bizzare exercise to carry loads of stone on his back and run around, up and down the hill at the back of the school.
To avoid hidden injuries he always used medicinal baths whenever he did that training and gave his body some rest while reading to gain knowledge. His daily routine is filled with all this. Lin Yue's diligence and efforts are reported to Yu Yuanzhen but he ignored it. Without resources Lin Yue will give up sooner or later in his view.
