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

Chapter 252 Soul Gathering
"You mean that you soul beasts lose your memories after transforming into human form?"

"No, it's just that the transformation process is when we soul beasts are most vulnerable. At that time, it's like growing all over again. During that process, I don't have much of my own consciousness, and I can't control my own power."

As Xue Di said this, she seemed to grit her teeth secretly, "Otherwise, how could I have ended up in such a state?"

Lin Xiao's gaze swept over Feng Shen, and he nodded slightly as well.

It has to be said that Fengshen was indeed very lucky. Whether it was a minute earlier or a minute later, it would have been impossible for him to encounter Xue Di at her most vulnerable moment.

Moreover, the Snow Empress happened to come here alone, without a spirit beast like "Little White" accompanying her for protection; otherwise, there would have been no opportunity to seal her away.

"Sigh, let's go." Lin Xiao pulled herself out of her thoughts and sighed softly again.

Although I was prepared to come up empty-handed, seeing it with my own eyes still left me somewhat disappointed.

"Just leave like that?"

However, the Snow Emperor in the Soul-Gathering Pavilion sounded slightly surprised.

"Otherwise, with my physical strength, these snow lotuses can only slightly speed up the recovery of my injuries, and they can't improve my physical condition at all. Do you expect me to take them with me?"

Lin Xiao didn't finish his sentence: In terms of healing effects, what could compare to the Life Gold within his body?

"I thought that with your greedy nature, you would take all of these with you." Xue Di paused for a moment before continuing.

"If I were short of gold soul coins, I might take them with me, but I have nothing to lack now. If I really need gold soul coins, I can just put some rare metals on the underground market. Why bother making this long journey?"

Xue Di was surprised that Lin Xiao admitted it so readily, and remained silent for a moment.

Lin Xiao, on the other hand, seemed to have completely let go of the matter of the snow lotus. "After all, I've already said that I'm probably more honest than others."

As Lin Xiao spoke, he began to walk out of the ice cave. He had experienced too much in his life, and compared to that, the disappointment of hope seemed insignificant.

The same distance in the ice cave always seemed very long when I came, and it seemed like I was still a long way from my goal.

But the time it took to leave was much shorter, leaving Lin Xiao no room for any other fantasies, and in the blink of an eye, he was back at the entrance of the ice cave.

Lin Xiao leaped into the air and emerged from the ice cave, only to be met with a fierce storm crashing against him once more.

Lin Xiao frowned slightly and glanced in the direction he came from.

Compared to before entering the ice cave, the surrounding storm seemed even more intense, and the soul power mixed in was quite evident. Lin Xiao could feel the terrifying power contained within that vast soul power.

Moreover, without even sending out his soul, he could already sense a powerful aura appearing on his way.

"noob!"

Before Lin Xiao could fully grasp the situation, he heard the Snow Emperor in the Soul-Embracing Realm let out a soft cry.

Lin Xiao knew, of course, that the "Little White" that the Snow Emperor spoke of was not a name for some pet, but rather the Ice Bear King, who was comparable to the third Heavenly King of the Far North, Titan Snow Demon King.

This storm, which has spread almost throughout the core of this far north, was started by it. In this icy and snowy land, its power is exerted to the fullest extent, making outsiders dare not approach easily.

But now, the purpose of this storm is no longer just to keep out external enemies; it's actually engaging in combat with someone. Lin Xiao stood still, pondering for a moment, before slowly retreating.

Regardless of who the Ice Bear King is fighting, this is not the time to join in.

In the far north, the Ice Bear King, which is 200,000 years old, is even more powerful, and Lin Xiao is not entirely confident that he can escape unscathed from it.

The fact that he was able to fight the Ice Bear King meant that his opponent's strength was probably not too bad. Whether it was a soul beast or a soul master, it was none of his business.

It's even possible that if he makes a move, the Ice Bear King will join forces with its opponents to deal with Lin Xiao, since the title of "evil soul master" doesn't have a very good reputation among soul masters.

However, before Lin Xiao could make a decision, several faint auras flew through the air and headed further north.

With a thought, Lin Xiao gradually calmed down his soul power aura and hid himself in the snow.

Those who could fly despite the gale-force winds in the air must have cultivation levels of at least level 95. No matter who they were, he didn't want to remain undetected.

"you……"

"I know what you're going to say, but with my strength, I'm afraid I can't help your 'newbie' much, and I also can't gain its trust. It might even attack me as soon as it sees you in your current state."

While communicating with Xue Di, Lin Xiao secretly observed the several auras in the air.

Soon, he realized something was wrong. The speed of those auras in the air was too slow, and they were able to resist the gale. He could not feel any fluctuation of soul power from them.

Can one withstand the fierce winds of the far north with just their physical body?
To be honest, Lin Xiao couldn't think of any other titled Douluo with such physical strength.

Perhaps Long Xiaoyao could do it with his Dark Sacred Dragon Martial Soul, but his speed would definitely not be that slow, and where on the Douluo Continent would there be so many Soul Masters who could compare to Long Xiaoyao?

After waiting for a long time, the several auras continued to head towards the far north at a leisurely pace. Lin Xiao frowned slightly, then suddenly raised his hand gently, and the assassin's soul slowly floated into the air.

Then, Lin Xiao's expression changed slightly.

The reason why those few auras could withstand the gale without any fluctuation of soul power was not because those people had too high cultivation, but because they were not human at all, but remnant souls, remnant souls that had just died.

It seemed that something deep within the far north was attracting these remnant souls, preventing them from dissipating immediately and instead causing them to drift slowly in that direction.

Lin Xiao stood up and reached out to put her hand on the Soul-Locking Embrace at her waist.

"Snow Empress, is there anything in the far north that attracts souls?"

Lin Xiao's gaze was fixed on the direction the souls had drifted away in. Perhaps the place they were going to had something far more suitable for them than the snow lotus.

"I don't know. If there is anything, it's probably something that appeared here after I left."

Lin Xiao glanced again in the direction of the Ice Bear King, sensing the changes in the surrounding storm, and suddenly lifted his leg and rushed towards the place where the souls were scattered.

Anything that can gather souls, whether it's a rare and precious treasure or a soul master or soul beast, has a certain attraction for him.

There's a saying that goes, "Since you're already here, you should at least take a look before you feel at ease."
