Douluo Dragon King: I am the Lord of the Abyss, the King of Eternal Night.

Chapter 17: The Extinct Soul Beast

Vertical sun.

The morning light is dim, and the soft sunlight shines through the curtains and slowly spreads into the room. Everything is peaceful.

Jiang Xiu ended his meditation and slowly opened his eyes. A golden light flashed in his purple pupils, which looked quite mysterious.

"Master, this body meditation method is indeed very efficient. In two and a half weeks at most, I will be able to break through to level fourteen."

Feeling the soul power filling up his body, Jiang Xiu thought energetically that after he came back from the Abyss Plane yesterday, his master Muye taught him the unique meditation method of the Body Sect, and he also replaced sleep with meditation.

Compared with ordinary meditation methods, the meditation method of the Body Sect is obviously more efficient. After all, it is the foundation of a sect, just like the Xuantian Gong of the Tang Sect.

"But we also need to quickly establish a legion leader in the Abyss, otherwise we'll waste too much time."

Jiang Xiu got up from the bed and thought while stretching his muscles.

Now he is in the Douluo plane during the day and meditates at night. When he is not in the abyss, his shadow army will definitely not be expanded, and he cannot do three things at once.

Therefore, it is essential to have a wise legion commander, so that even if he is practicing in the Douluo plane, his shadow legion can continue to grow.

After all, the Shadow Legion doesn't need to rest, so he can exploit them hard... and become the best at exploiting the Abyss.

"Bang bang bang!"

At this moment, there was a crisp knock on the door outside the room, followed by Makino's voice.

"Take a short break, hurry up and get up and wash up. We still have to go to the Spirit Ascension Platform this morning. The Leng Tower Master has already sent someone to remind us."

"Right away, Master."

Jiang Xiu replied loudly, then after washing up, he took out clothes from the storage soul guide and changed into a white suit embroidered with cranes.

The soul guide and the clothes inside were all purchased for him by Muye yesterday, and were sent to him together with the meditation method. After all, Jiang Xiu's property was destroyed in the abyss tide, and his federal card has not yet been replaced.

"Yeah, not bad, very energetic, not losing face."

Looking at himself in the mirror, Jiang Xiu nodded with satisfaction. The tight-fitting suit and his handsome face gave him the air of a young man full of vigor and ambition.

After packing up, Jiang Xiu, led by Xiao Ling, went to the Spirit Pagoda for dinner. The Spirit Pagoda had already provided them with a sumptuous breakfast, and each item was very expensive.

"Tsk, this earth dragon tendon isn't cooked properly. It's overcooked. What a waste of ingredients."

"Well, this purple jade shrimp is quite good. Disciple, you should eat more. It contains the power of qi and blood."

Makino tasted and commented at the same time, turning himself into a seasoned chef.

"Hey! Disciple, you have to drink this purple ginseng porridge while sipping it. That way it will taste better."

"Okay, the deputy tower master is already waiting for us at the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Seeing this, Han Tianyi on the side glared at Muye unhappily. His nephew was good at everything except that he was obsessed with cooking and mechas all his life.

Soon, the three of them finished their breakfast and, led by Han Tianyi, headed to the Spirit Raising Platform at the headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda.

On the way through the Spirit Pagoda's hall, Jiang Xiu noticed a huge mural on the surrounding walls. On it were two figures, a man and a woman. These two people were none other than the Spirit Pagoda's founder, Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao, and his wife, Tang Wutong.

"The original intention of the Spirit Pagoda was to reduce conflicts between soul beasts and humans. Well... now it has achieved its goal to some extent."

Jiang Xiu's eyes moved slightly, and he thought to himself.

After all, the soul beast clan is almost extinct, so conflicts will naturally decrease. It is reasonable and there is no problem with it.

It's unclear what Huo Yuhao will think when he sees the current state of the soul beast race. Crossing the lobby and entering the elevator, Han Tianyi took out a black and gold card and gently tapped it against the sensor area. The elevator automatically descended, and when it reopened, Jiang Xiu found themselves inside a circular metal room.

This room was still entirely made of metal, and a circle of huge soul-guiding screens hung on the walls, flashing various images. It looked like a world entirely green, like a jungle.

"Master Leng, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Muye waved and greeted Leng Yaozhu who was already waiting here.

"Is that really the case?"

Jiang Xiu saw Na'er beside Leng Yaozhu and thought thoughtfully that what he thought last night was not wrong. Leng Yaozhu should have other ideas.

"We just arrived a while ago. Na'er just absorbed the soul yesterday and needs to increase the age of her soul ring. How about letting her and Xiaoxiu enter the soul raising platform together?"

Leng Yaozhu's red lips curled up slightly, and there was a smile in her phoenix eyes as she spoke to Muye, but her eyes inadvertently swept over Jiang Xiu.

"No problem. This way, the two of them can look after each other. After all, this is the first time for both of them to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform."

Muye didn't think it was inappropriate and agreed generously. What's more, they were now eating the Spirit Transmission Platform and using the Spirit Transmission Tower, so it would be too disrespectful to refuse directly.

There was a hint of surprise in Naer's beautiful eyes when she looked at Jiang Xiu. Why did she feel that after one night, there was a hint of indescribable meaning in Jiang Xiu?

"Okay, let's get started."

Leng Yao Zhu Su waved her hand slightly, the metal wall cracked, and two silver-white metal cabinets slowly slid out and stopped in front of Na'er and Jiang Xiu.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiu and Na'er walked in and lay down according to the instructions. Then, suction cups of the instruments emerged from all around and quickly attached themselves to certain parts of their bodies, fitting perfectly.

And last night, Muye also told Jiang Xiu all the precautions about the Spirit Ascension Platform.

The Soul Ascension Platform is a semi-virtual and semi-real world that the Soul Transmission Tower has painstakingly constructed. It houses countless soul beasts for human soul masters to absorb and practice with.

Moreover, these soul beasts are not real soul beasts, but are made entirely of energy. After the soul master kills these soul beasts, they will turn into the purest energy and increase the lifespan of the soul master's soul rings.

Jiang Xiu and Na'er were both first-ring soul masters, so they entered the primary soul-raising platform. The primary soul-raising platform was suitable for soul masters below the Soul Sect level. Most of the soul beasts inside were ten- or hundred-year-old soul beasts, and occasionally there would be a few thousand-year-old soul beasts.

"Remember, if you are in danger, press the distress signal on your arm in time."

As Leng Yaozhu's voice rang out, the hatch above Jiang Xiu and Na'er's heads slowly closed and retracted into the metal wall, and the surroundings instantly fell into darkness.

After the two entered the metal wall, only Leng Yaozhu and the other two were left in the large circular metal room.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Xiu's martial spirit shouldn't just be his own. I wonder if his other martial spirit is the sun, the silver moon, or the nearly vanished Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon?"

Seeing Jiang Xiu and Na'er successfully enter the Spirit Ascension Platform, Leng Yaozhu turned her head, looked at Muye, and asked softly with a hint of meaning.

"Hmm? What does Lengta Master mean?"

Muye's eyes narrowed and he asked in a calm voice. He was not surprised that Leng Yaozhu could find out Jiang Xiu's identity.

"Don't worry, this Tower Master has no ill intentions. I just guessed that Xiao Xiu, as a descendant of the Sun and Moon royal family from ten thousand years ago, should inherit one of the three great martial spirits. It seems that my guess was correct."

Leng Yaozhu raised her red lips and smiled slightly.

"I believe Your Majesty is also aware of the royal family reforms that took place ten thousand years ago."

"Of course, after all, that matter is closely related to Ling Bing Douluo, the founder of your Spirit Pagoda."

Makino glanced at his uncle beside him, then nodded slightly.
