Douluo: Lord of Arms

Chapter 170

"Not bad!"

Makino couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, and at the same time, he couldn't help but clap his hands lightly.

In his current state, Lin Xingyu, when unleashing his full power, is almost equivalent to a regular Title Douluo.

Of course, it doesn't include the three-word battle armor.

Seeing Lin Xingyu looting the corpse, Mu Ye joined in to prevent any further accidents.

After half an hour.

Looking at the soul tool in his hand, Lin Xingyu couldn't help but show a complicated expression.

It contains souls collected by these evil spirit masters of the Holy Spirit Cult.

The souls here are no longer all sea spirit beasts; many are also human.

If he wanted to, he could easily conceal himself and bring all these souls into his domain without Mu Ye's knowledge.

After some minor modifications to these souls, no one will be able to discern their origins.

Easy, convenient...

"call!"

A moment later, Lin Xingyu let out a long breath.

The Glazed True Fire ignited in his hand, destroying all the soul-binding devices that imprisoned souls.

In an instant, one illusory soul after another flew into the air.

The space was filled with countless illusory souls; a careful count would reveal that there were probably tens of thousands of souls.

There were both humans and soul beasts inside. Since he no longer had the energy to distinguish them one by one, and since he intended to let the human souls return to the world, he simply released all the souls.

As for those ferocious souls, he also raised his hand and unleashed streams of Glazed True Fire, the terrifying effect of burning their essence and spirit causing them to dissipate into the world in an instant.

Having lost the restraint of the soul tool and returned to a normal state, these souls soon returned to the world.

Lin Xingyu felt a sense of relief at the same time.

If a soul is missing in the future, one can take action against evil soul masters or enter the sea to hunt sea soul beasts.

If all else fails, Mu Ye will be able to become a Limit Douluo in no time, and with his battle armor and mecha, his combat power will be able to reach the level of a quasi-god.

At worst, we can open the connection with the demon plane in advance and enter the demon plane to collect souls.

Let's not make things difficult for ordinary people's souls.

"How about it?"

Makino stepped forward and asked.

“Very good. I wonder where they collected all these souls from,” Lin Xingyu said.

Upon hearing this, Makino fell silent for a moment. The Holy Spirit Cult had many ways to obtain a soul.

The simplest example is the homeless population in various cities; their disappearance goes unnoticed.

Going even further, they could directly use fraud to lure people in various cities who want to get rich, tricking them into going overseas, and then the rest would be simple.

"You can leave first. The nearest city to the south shouldn't be far away," Makino said softly.

"Isn't the teacher leaving with us?" Lin Xingyu was a little surprised.

"I'll wander around here and see if I can catch some big fish. To be honest, it's not that I look down on the evil spirit masters here."

"All the evil soul masters here combined, plus the other supplies stored here, might not be as valuable as this level nine soul tool sealed tower."

“If there’s a problem here, other evil spirit masters will definitely come to check.”

As Makino explained, he walked to the very center and carefully examined the enclosed tower that was placed there.

To the higher-ups of the Holy Spirit Cult, all the low-level evil soul masters were just consumables; once they died, they were gone and not worth worrying about at all. In fact, the loss of this level nine soul tool was far more damaging.

Upon hearing what Mu Ye said, Lin Xingyu immediately understood.

He was actually a little worried. If he remembered correctly, before the Holy Spirit Cult did something big, it seemed that there was a major base in the far north. At the very least, it seemed that the Demon Emperor had always stayed in the far north.

If Makino were to accidentally stumble into the enemy's lair, the scene would be...

Lin Xingyu was suddenly afraid to think about it.

"Teacher, if you encounter a powerful evil spirit master while you are alone, you may have a lot of trouble."

Waving his hand dismissively, Mu Ye said with a smile, "Don't worry, with my strength, even if I run into a quasi-god, they can't do anything to me. Even if I run into the strongest person on the continent right now, I can still run away."

Looking at the confident Mu Ye, Lin Xingyu was at a loss for words.

He certainly has the confidence to back it up; right now, the only ones in the Holy Spirit Cult who can pose a threat to him are the Demon Emperor, the Ghost Emperor, and the Underworld Emperor.

Even if the things stored in such a stronghold are very valuable, it's not worth these three guys coming together.

If you only install one, then it's not a problem for it to escape.

Thinking of this, Lin Xingyu stopped trying to persuade him.

It's just to prepare him for a strategic retreat, so that he'll have a way out if he really encounters an invincible opponent.

After looting the entire area, leaving nothing behind, Lin Xingyu, satisfied with his spoils, piloted the flying soul tool southwards.

At this moment, Mu Ye quietly lay in wait, anticipating any Soul Masters who might come to inspect him.

……

Shrek Academy.

Sitting in his office, he was leisurely handling some upcoming official business.

"Dudu!"

Upon seeing his communication soul tool suddenly ring, Wu Changkong took it over.

Upon seeing the name of the person who sent the message, Wu Changkong's expression darkened.

Wu Changkong had generally liked Lin Xingyu, one of the students he had encountered since he began teaching.

She is talented, hardworking, and ambitious. She spends all her free time practicing and has a very good relationship with her classmates.

Basically, no one dared to disobey him, and he was able to complete the tasks assigned to him excellently.

What teacher wouldn't like a student like that?

But now Wu Changkong felt that he had been taught a good lesson by this student.

When he first asked for leave, Wu Changkong didn't think it was a big deal, as the school's teaching progress didn't really help him much.

Going out on my own can also help me improve myself. Although I spend less time at the academy, Wu Changkong is very supportive of this behavior.

But with each request for leave, and eventually even a single message being ignored, Wu Changkong said he felt completely numb.

He not only skipped classes regularly, but he also skipped the final exams.

He even occupied the position of class monitor.

If it weren't for the fact that most of the class affairs are usually handled by the committee members and vice class monitor, he would feel even more overwhelmed now.

After taking a few long breaths to compose himself, Wu Changkong sent a few messages to Lin Xingyu.

Having just left the simulated environment training ground, Xu Xiaoyan's expression quickly shifted from boredom to surprise, then to anger, and finally to glee upon hearing the beeping of her communication soul tool.

He's a master of face-changing.

People living together always influence each other.

Originally, Xu Xiaoyan wasn't very interested in cultivation. She just cultivated step by step every day and completed the tasks she was supposed to do.

Compared to these things, Xu Xiaoyan prefers to spend her time shopping and relaxing.

But people living together will influence each other, and the longer I spend with Lin Xingyu...

Under the guidance of this ultimate scroll king, Xu Xiaoyan gradually increased her daily cultivation time.

The time for play is decreasing day by day.

Through these interactions, Lin Xingyu gradually developed some aesthetic sense, and at the very least, he gained some understanding of the various clothing styles on the street.

The person's clothes were no longer the same black outfit with gold patterns that they wore repeatedly.

When traveling, they also bring back local specialties as gifts for their companions.

In the first semester after being admitted to Shrek Academy, just like college students who had just entered university, Xu Xiaoyan did indeed slack off a lot.

Especially when she was sweeping through the outer courtyard with Lin Xingyu and becoming invincible, Xu Xiaoyan felt extremely proud and self-satisfied.

When Lin Xingyu took leave and ran away for his own reasons in the second semester, Xu Xiaoyan was completely stunned.

I'm still here studying hard, while my classmates, dissatisfied with the pace of learning, have already gone to study other subjects...

Deeply affected by this setback, the enormous gap between himself and Lin Xingyu became glaringly obvious.

Xu Xiaoyan had some understanding of what kind of person Lin Xingyu liked, and she was also quite confident.

But she also knows that people who are together must have some common topics, otherwise, as time goes by, even the best feelings will gradually dissipate.

Having common topics with someone is the best way to enhance your relationship.

From that day on, Xu Xiaoyan became completely focused and worked incredibly hard.

When the second semester began, he successfully broke through to the Soul Master level. Among the seven people Lin Xingyu pulled together, he was only a little slower than Gu Yue and Ye Xinglan.

"Let's see what gift you brought. If it doesn't satisfy me, hmph."

After briefly venting her frustrations, Xu Xiaoyan put away her communication soul tool and chose to return directly to the simulated environment training ground.

Let's roll it up for another day!
……

Meanwhile, in another simulated environment training ground.

A tall woman sat languidly in the boundless darkness.

After a long while, he slowly opened his eyes, feeling the will within the demonic power being completely swept away once again, and he couldn't help but feel a little more relaxed.

At the same time, his gaze drifted leisurely to his storage soul tool.
"We're almost out of pills!"

Yuan Enhui murmured to himself.

Since fully embracing the power of the demon, Yuanen Yehui's cultivation progress has gone from riding a tricycle to taking a high-speed train.

In just eight months, her soul power increased by five levels, almost catching up with Lin Xingyu's speed.

Her soul power has now reached level 48. At this rate, it won't be long before she becomes a Soul King.

Furthermore, due to the continuous absorption of demonic power, all four spirit rings of her second martial soul were upgraded to the ten-thousand-year level.

And it's not just any ordinary ten thousand years.

The person as a whole has been greatly enhanced.

He picked up the communication soul tool and looked at it lazily. After carefully considering the gap between himself and Lin Xingyu, he lowered his head dejectedly.

The gap is still quite large...

Well, now the other party is my biggest creditor, and if things continue like this, I'm afraid I'll never be able to pay off this debt in my lifetime.

I thought carefully about what I still had that I could use to pay off my debts...

After a long while, she couldn't help but gently bite her lip, leaning back slightly, deciding to continue lying down...

As for the remaining people, their attitudes toward Lin Xingyu's reply varied.

Blue Ice City.

This is a large city located quite close to the far north.

Because it is covered in ice and snow all year round, but there is very little snow here, and the temperature is extremely low all year round.

Standing in the middle of the city wall and looking around, all you can see is a world of ice and snow.

Moreover, most of the time, if you look north, you can often see the aurora borealis.

In addition, the city is always surrounded by an ice-blue color, so it was given the name Blue Ice City from the very beginning.

After parting ways with Mu Ye, Lin Xingyu headed south and arrived directly in this city.

Because this place is close to the far north, a Federation army is usually stationed nearby.

In addition, it is a large city, so its safety is quite guaranteed.

The city is not only home to a mecha army, but also to a number of titled Douluo.

Lin Xingyu had been waiting for Mu Ye there.

He and Muye agreed to wait in the city for a few days. If no high-level evil spirit masters came to inspect, the two of them would meet up here.

If Mu Ye hasn't returned after three days, Lin Xingyu doesn't need to wait here anymore. He can go directly to Tian Dou City and meet him there.

As for something going wrong, that's absolutely impossible. With Makino's current combat strength, unless he's surrounded by several quasi-gods, nothing could possibly happen to him.

Lin Xingyu strolled around the city with complete peace of mind.

I'll also buy some unique products as gifts.

"Yes, the mystic coral is beautiful enough, and it can also help regulate blood and qi when placed in the room, so it can be given as a gift."

The quantity of Xuanjing Coral harvested was not small. In addition to the top-grade ones that were 30,000 years old, Lin Xingyu also had many that were several thousand years old.

These things, which are thousands of years old, can be given as gifts.

Not only is it highly effective, but it's also quite attractive; I doubt anyone would dislike it.

Lin Xingyu leisurely strolled around here for three days.

It wasn't until the agreed time arrived on the third day, when Lin Xingyu was about to leave, that Mu Ye arrived in Blue Ice City in a rather disheveled state.

Upon meeting, Mu Ye, without saying a word, took Lin Xingyu and left immediately.

"Teacher... what happened?" Lin Xingyu asked hesitantly.

"Don't even mention it." Hearing Lin Xingyu's words, Mu Ye immediately felt a bit depressed.

He's been having a really tough time these past few days.

I felt like I could go back in time and slap myself a few times.

He said it wouldn't matter if he encountered a near-godlike player, and he actually did run into one.
