Douluo's Demon Blade Thousand Blades and the Original Martial Soul

Chapter 21 Preparing to Meet Lingling's Parents

Approaching the two, Dugu Yan asked, "Grandpa, how do I use that external soul bone?"

Dugu Bo said, "External soul bones are very rare. They can only be obtained when a soul master absorbs a soul ring. This is the first time I've seen one."

The external soul bone is not one of the six common soul bones.

Once a Soul Master is fully integrated with it, it will not fall off after death.

Moreover, he can grow alongside the Soul Master.

You haven't fully merged with it yet. Once you've fully merged, just use the same attack methods as that human-faced demon spider.

Lin Yizhang said, "You can accelerate the fusion by using soul power pressure, and the external soul bone may also have some special skills similar to soul skills. You will understand as you explore it later."

Furthermore, I believe this external soul bone is also of the poison attribute.

Once you have fully integrated, you can try to force the poison in your body into the soul bone.

This will not only help you detoxify, but also make the poison of the soul bone even more potent.

"Yanyan, you seem to have more than level 31 soul power now. What is your third soul skill?"

Dugu Yan said, "That's great! This Soul Hunt has been incredibly fruitful. Thank you, Yizhang."

My soul power has now reached level 32, and my third soul skill is the Azure Scale Demon Spider's Venom.

It is a mixture of human-faced spider venom and green-scaled snake venom.

When using a soul skill, it can create a poisonous mist that spreads to the opponent. As long as the opponent is slightly touched by the poison, they will turn into a thick liquid in a short time.

Unless a Soul Master of the same level releases a large amount of Soul Power to resist, they cannot stop the invasion of the poison.

Most importantly, I can control the direction in which the toxin spreads at will.

After saying that, he kissed Lin Yizhang on the cheek. "This is your reward."

Lin Yizhang said, "The reward isn't enough." After saying that, he hugged Dugu Yan's waist and kissed her red lips.

After a long while, their lips parted. Only then did Lin Yizhang realize that Dugu Bo was still there. Wasn't he just asking for trouble? He had been careless.

Then, he cautiously turned his head, only to find that Dugu Bo was no longer there.

Lin Yizhang was secretly delighted; it seemed that Dugu Bo was becoming more and more satisfied with his grandson-in-law.

"Let's go, we're still in the Star Dou Great Forest, it's still very dangerous. Let's go back first." Lin Yizhang said, then led Dugu Yan away.

Dugu Yan's third soul skill is actually similar to her third soul skill in the anime, Jade Scale Purple Poison, except that the poison is more terrifying and she can control the direction of its spread at will.

It should be noted that even as a Title Douluo, Dugu Bo could not arbitrarily change the direction of the poison's spread after releasing it, so this soul skill is extremely powerful.

After another ten days or so, the three of them returned to Tiandou City by carriage, marking the successful completion of their nearly month-long soul-hunting mission.

Back at Dugu Bo's residence, Lin Yizhang stayed there for another day.

He did not share a bed with Dugu Yan during this period because the poison in Dugu Yan's body had not yet been neutralized.

Lin Yizhang is unaffected by everyday physical contact because his physical fitness is higher than Dugu Yan's, allowing him to withstand it.

If they engage in deeper communication, well… Lin Yizhang could withstand it, but it might affect Dugu Yan's health.

Lin Yizhang wasn't the kind of person who didn't care about his girlfriend, so he was able to control his desires.

If I haven't even won over Ye Lingling yet, I can start with her. With a little effort, I should have a chance.

However, Ye Lingling's concern lies in the inheritance of the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul.

Lin Yizhang preferred to wait until he had helped her solve the problem before making any further statements.

Sigh, even after falling in love, you still have to endure it. Blue skin, mushroom.

I don't need to maintain some kind of bullshit pure yang body.

After forcibly suppressing his budding romantic feelings, Lin Yizhang went back to the academy to take care of Ye Lingling.

It's been almost a month since we last saw each other. I need to go over and let you know I'm safe and sound, and spend some quality time together.

As for Dugu Yan, she stayed at home and allowed Dugu Bo to release his soul power to completely fuse with her.

This process should take several days; it would be somewhat dangerous to fuse them all at once using extreme pressure like Tang San did.

Lin Yizhang found Ye Lingling cultivating in the simulated training ground and walked straight over.

There's no such thing as a Soul Master going into qi deviation if their cultivation is interrupted.

Meditation is such a terrible method. When practicing, you only need to concentrate your mind and don't need to shut down your senses to the outside world.

Ye Lingling noticed someone walking towards her and opened her blue eyes.

Upon seeing that it was Lin Yizhang, she happily ran over and threw herself into his arms.

"Lingling, I'm back." Lin Yizhang hugged Ye Lingling and said gently.

Lin Yizhang led Ye Lingling away from the simulated training ground. There were still quite a few people cultivating there, so it wasn't a suitable place to talk to Ye Lingling.

Arriving at a quiet pavilion in the college, Lin Yizhang sat down on a chair.

He lifted Ye Lingling onto his lap and sat her down, wrapping his arms around her slender waist.

He brought his head close to Ye Lingling's hair and smelled the delicate fragrance.

Lin Yizhang said softly, "Have you missed me during the almost month I've been gone?"

"Hmm, I missed you. Why did you guys go for so long? Did you not find a suitable soul beast?" Ye Lingling said.

Ye Lingling is now 16 years old and has been dating Lin Yizhang for quite some time, so she is not shy about openly expressing her longing for him.

"This time we went to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt souls. It took a lot of time on the way, but the harvest was huge."

Let Yan Yan tell you when she returns to the academy; it's a secret for now.

This time, we hunted down a 1500-year-old human-faced demon spider.

"And it was a team effort between me and Yan Yan that took it down. Pretty impressive, right?" Lin Yizhang said.

"How is this possible?" Ye Lingling exclaimed in surprise. She knew about the Human-Faced Demon Spider and was aware of its terror.

Even though it has only just broken through a thousand years, most Soul Masters can't do anything about it.

How could she not be surprised that Lin Yizhang and Dugu Yan, both of whom were still Great Soul Masters, could join forces to kill her?

"Lingling, actually I used my second martial soul. As I told you before, I am a soul master with twin martial souls," Lin Yizhang said.

"Uh... I do think you did mention it when you confessed to me before, but I was in a daze at the time and didn't pay much attention."

What's your second martial soul? It must be really powerful, right?

"This is the first time I've ever heard of someone possessing two martial souls," Ye Lingling said.

"I'll introduce it to you when we get back to the little courtyard I rented next to the Soul Arena at noon. It's not convenient to show it here at the academy."

"It's been a long time since I've seen you. Have you broken through to level 32 yet?" Lin Yizhang said.

Lin Yizhang remembered that it had been more than four months since Ye Lingling absorbed her third soul ring and broke through to level 31 in soul power.

Even if she doesn't cultivate "Cultivation Method 1.0", she should have already broken through to level 32.

Moreover, "Cultivation Method 1.0" can also increase her cultivation speed by half a percent.

"I've already broken through to level 32 soul power not long after you left," Ye Lingling said.

"Yes, my Lingling is so great." Lin Yizhang said, kissing Ye Lingling on the forehead.

If Ye Lingling hadn't been wearing a black veil, Lin Yizhang would have kissed her directly on the cheek.

Ye Lingling said she didn't plan to take off her black veil before marrying Lin Yizhang, and Lin Yizhang agreed.

Ye Lingling's face turned bright red instantly, like a red apple, which captivated Lin Yizhang.

After a long while, Lin Yizhang, who had come to his senses, said, "After I show you my other martial soul at noon, let's go back to your house."

I'll also go meet my parents and ask them when they'll betroth you to me.

Ye Lingling turned her head away shyly, buried her head in Lin Yizhang's arms, and stopped talking.

Seeing Ye Lingling snuggling into his arms, Lin Yizhang hugged her tightly in return.

After a quarter of an hour, Lin Yizhang said, "Lingling, it's still early, let's go shopping."

"I'll buy some groceries on the way back, and I'll cook you something delicious myself."

Seeing Ye Lingling nod, Lin Yizhang led her out of the academy.

The college is now on holiday, and Ye Lingling is one of those who stayed on campus, so she's not worried about missing any classes.
