Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 224 Xuanji Bird

When he walked out of the auction, Tang Wulin looked a little dazed.

He felt a little numb when he saw the latter part. This was his first contact with the dark side of the world, and what he saw had a great impact on him.

Gong Yangmo looked at him with some concern and asked in a low voice:

"Xiaotong, shall we go back?"

Tang Wulin nodded silently.

He had not expected to see these things before coming here, and had not made any mental preparations. He needed to take some time to sort out his thoughts.

When we returned to the base, Zhou Sichen had already returned. Seeing the two people walking in with serious expressions, he raised his eyebrows and asked:
"You two also went to gather intelligence? It doesn't look like good news."

Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo looked at each other, closed the door, took a deep breath, and said:
"Zhou Sichen, listen to us..."

Then, he told Zhou Sichen roughly what he had heard and seen in the underground market.

As he spoke, he himself could not believe that what he said was true. These words really lacked authenticity.

Zhou Sichen listened carefully, but when he heard about the existence of the Holy Spirit Church, he couldn't help but interrupt:

"Boss, are you sure what that guy said is true and he didn't lie to you?"

Evil soul masters use other people's lives as cultivation materials, and can be said to be the real public enemy of mankind. It is hard for him to believe that there is such an organization hiding in the dark and even receiving official support from the Sun-Moon Empire.

When faced with such an organization, shouldn’t we use all means necessary to curb its development?

Gong Yangmo smiled bitterly and said:

"If I hadn't gone to the underground market with Wu Lin, I would have had the same reaction as you when I heard this. Unfortunately, this is indeed true."

Zhou Sichen was stunned into silence, and after a while he asked:

"So what are you going to do next, Boss?"

He guessed that what Tang Wulin and the others had found out was not good news, but he did not expect the news to be so bad.

Tang Wulin answered without hesitation:
"First, send a message to the academy and tell them what's happening here. At the same time, go to the place mentioned by the man in black to check it out and confirm whether it is a real branch of the Holy Spirit Church."

The incident this time was truly too big. Judging from the scale of this underground bazaar, the Holy Spirit Church must have grown extremely powerful. Tang Wulin could not imagine what kind of bloody storm would be unleashed on the continent if these evil soul masters came out in full force.

Zhou Sichen took a deep breath.

"I understand, but don't go to the place the man in black mentioned to investigate. Let my Xuanji bird come."

Tang Wulin nodded heavily.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you." After the last competition, Zhou Sichen became a disciple of an old summoner in the Poseidon Pavilion and learned a lot of new knowledge.

According to the old man, although his treasured martial soul was powerful, his way of practicing it was a mess, and he did not bring out the greatest advantage of this martial soul at all.

The characteristic of the Treasure Martial Soul is that it can transform the owner of the absorbed soul ring into a summoned creature. This characteristic determines that the development direction of this martial soul will be extremely flexible.

However, Zhou Sichen did not consider this at all when he was practicing, and instead focused all of his first three soul skills on pure combat, which made the old man feel a little disappointed.

"Idiot, listen carefully. With the characteristics of your martial soul, you don't need to absorb so many combat spirit rings. After all, no matter how much you absorb in the beginning, it will only be a fraction compared to the spirit rings that come later."

"To give you an inappropriate example, if your first eight spirit rings are only ten thousand year spirit rings at most, but your ninth spirit skill is to summon the Golden Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian, ​​then do your first eight spirit skills still have any effect at all?"

"So you can wait until you have a higher level of cultivation to absorb pure combat spirit rings. The most important thing now is functionality! Functionality! Did you hear me? The combat power of a spirit beast is not important. What is important is that its racial talent must be strong!"

Although the old man had a hot temper, his scolding did wake Zhou Sichen up, so his fourth soul skill chose a completely different direction from the previous three soul skills.

Xuanji Bird. If any soul master possesses this martial soul, he will definitely be a top-level agility attack soul master, because this is the bird soul beast ranked 14th in speed known in the world.

Don’t underestimate the fourteenth place. There are so many species of bird soul beasts in the world, and the fourteenth place is enough to stand out from the crowd.

And the most important thing is that the Xuanji Bird is not only fast, it also has spatial attributes and the ability to teleport.

After absorbing it, Zhou Sichen not only retained its ability to teleport, but also gained a new skill called transfer, which allows him to switch places with the Xuanji Bird. If his hand touches other people and that person has no will to resist, he can also switch places with it.

The effect seems to be somewhat similar to Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Replacement, but in fact these are two completely different skills. Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Replacement can ignore the opponent's will and force both parties to switch positions. It can not only be used for movement, but also to harm the opponent. In comparison, Zhou Sichen's ability to only swap between man and bird is much inferior.

But Zhou Sichen did not have any dissatisfaction. He did not absorb this soul skill to cheat others, but just because he was attracted by the ability of teleportation.

As a summoning soul master, his own combat power is very poor, and the ability to escape is much more important to him than that of ordinary soul masters. After acquiring this soul skill, his ability to survive has greatly increased, and he even has a certain ability to control the situation, which has exceeded his expectations.

The Xuanji Bird is very small, and is one of the very small bird soul beasts. It is a perfect choice to use it to explore the way.

So the three of them determined the division of labor. Tang Wulin and Gong Yangmo wrote a letter to the academy to report the situation there, while Zhou Sichen used the Xuanji Bird to investigate the Holy Spirit Church branch.

As for his method of exploration, it relies on the ability of empathy.

After the last competition, the academy provided three additional soul bones on top of Xingluo City's four, and all of them were highly compatible with a member of the Seven Devils.

One of them was specially given to Zhou Sichen. It was a skull, which could be said to have brought him an all-round improvement.

Not to mention that the skull greatly improves the physical and mental strength required, the ability it gives Zhou Sichen called empathy is also very useful.

With the help of empathy, the range of activities of Zhou Sichen's summons will be greatly increased, and their survival time will be greatly extended. In addition, the biggest improvement is his control over his summons. Even when the empathy ability is maximized, he can possess his consciousness into the summoned creature and achieve perfect control.

Now he just happened to use empathy to possess his consciousness onto the Xuanji Bird and observe the situation of the Holy Spirit Church branch remotely.
