Douluo Continent: Azure Dragon Slays Evil, Qilin Suppresses the World

Xuanqing's vision went black, and he found himself in this strange place.

The place was boundless and empty, with nothing at all. He wandered aimlessly for a while.

Finally, two illusory figures appeared suspended in the air, and a majestic azure dragon coiled in the air, radiating azure light.

The other was a grayish-white Qilin, its body radiating a nine-colored halo, looking mysterious.

Two illusory figures suddenly moved! They transformed into streaks of light and darted into Xuan Qing's forehead.

A majestic voice suddenly echoed in Xuanqing's mind.

[The first test of the Azure Dragon God: Test content: Soul power reaches level ten.]

[Evaluation period: One year.]

[Reward: Azure Dragon Bloodline Purification.]

[Punishment for failure: Annihilation!]

Before Xuanqing could react, another voice rang out.

[The first test of the Qilin Divine Examination: Master the basic abilities of the Chaos Qilin Martial Soul.]

[Evaluation period: Five years!]

[Reward: Level 10 Innate Soul Power!]

[Failure Penalty: Permanent stripping of the Chaos Qilin Martial Soul!]

Then his consciousness returned to his body, and Xuanqing sat on the ground, completely dazed.

What's going on? He just bought a fake from a street vendor, how did he get a divine answer?

What second spirit? He only has a Green Scale Python.

Xuanqing quickly tried to activate it once, twice... until the sixth time, when his shoulder suddenly felt heavy. He turned his head and almost jumped up.

A small animal, about the size of a palm, was perched on his shoulder, yawning.

It glanced at Xuanqing, turned its head and went to sleep, even snoring.

Xuan Qing was greatly shocked. A detached martial soul? That's incredible.

He instinctively touched his chest.

"No...something's wrong."

"This is extremely unsettling; the jade pendant is gone!"

Xuan Qing concentrated his mind, and suddenly disappeared from the spot, appearing in that mysterious space.

"So that's how it is. The jade pendant has become this portable space, allowing you to come and go as you please."

Xuan Qing took a deep breath and discovered that the soul power here was particularly dense.

But he wasn't in a hurry to cultivate. It was still broad daylight, and it would be awkward if the village chief or someone else came knocking and he was nowhere to be found.

He needs to carefully plan what to do next.

He absolutely couldn't go to the Spirit Hall; he didn't want to be sent to Yu Xiaogang for research by that crazy woman, Bibi Dong.

After all, his martial soul is really too bizarre.

But a level 5 innate talent is nothing in Wuhun City; how could it compare to Yu Xiaogang's status in her heart?

If dissecting him might offer even a sliver of hope for Luo Sanpao's evolution... would Bibi Dong soften her heart?

Although the possibility was extremely slim, he didn't want to take the risk; playing it safe was the best strategy.

Thinking of this, he immediately went out and ran towards the village chief's house, hoping that the Soul Master uncle hadn't left yet.

He rushed into the courtyard, panting, and stopped the Soul Master who was about to leave.

"Sir... Uncle, could you please keep my secret?"

"Although my innate soul power is not very high, my martial soul is really special. I don't want to be targeted by some research maniac."

The Soul Master smiled and said, "Don't worry, kid, I'll definitely keep your secret. But don't go to Soto City. Everyone there knows me, and it'll be easy to give myself away."

He thought for a moment and said, "Go to the Tianyuan City Primary Soul Master Academy. I have a friend who teaches there. Just take your Soul Master certificate and go directly there. After you get your first Soul Ring, use the excuse of Martial Soul mutation. Before that, try not to use your Martial Soul."

The village chief also came out.

"You've gone to sell vegetables with me a few times, and you're familiar with Tianyuan City. Are you going to report for duty tomorrow? Do you want me to give you a ride?"

Xuan Qing waved his hand.

"No need, no need. It's at most a half-hour journey. I could find it with my eyes closed. You two chat first, I'll go back to cultivate now."

He ran back to his hut, closed all the doors and windows, and with a thought, entered the space again.

The little Qilin was summoned and lay on the ground yawning.

Xuanqing poked it.

"What skills do you have? Show us."

The little Qilin lazily raised its head and spewed out a ball of flame. The flame was extremely hot, and even the space around it was distorted by the heat.

Then it exhaled another puff of icy mist, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet and the ground to freeze over.

In just a couple of moves, Xuan Qing lost 30% of his level 5 soul power reserves!

His face fell: "Does it really have to be so taxing on your soul power?"

"but!"

Its power is indeed remarkable; the word "chaos" is truly well-deserved.

According to Xuanqing's understanding, chaos is composed of yin and yang energies. More accurately, chaos contains yin and yang energies and is the initial state in which all things are conceived.

In his understanding, the Azure Dragon is the god of the East. In folklore, the Azure Dragon controls rain and ensures a bountiful harvest.

In ancient times, there was a custom of worshipping the Azure Dragon to pray for rain, so it also represents spring, when the spring thunder brings about the revival of all things.

But as for which one is stronger, he really can't say for sure.

The only certainty is that both the Azure Dragon and the Qilin are considered auspicious beasts.

Xuan Qing sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate, poking the little Qilin at his feet.

"Don't be lazy. I know you can cultivate too. Even separated martial souls have intelligence. Don't pretend to be a toy."

The little Qilin tilted its head, reluctantly lay down, and a faint nine-colored light emanated from its body.

The two of them cultivated for an entire afternoon. After eating something casually in the evening, Xuanqing went back into the space to continue cultivating.

The soul energy in the space was not only abundant, but also exceptionally gentle, without any feeling of bulging veins.

He suddenly remembered something.

"Should we create our own meditation method? At least improve upon the basics that we don't have any ideas about?"

Xuanqing knew how important a good meditation method was.

Tang San's ability to walk faster than others is largely due to his Xuan Tian Gong (Mysterious Heaven Skill).

Even if it doesn't succeed, it's okay. The Chaos Qilin's Chaos attribute is a safety net, which means he can use any attribute of cultivation technique.

Water, fire, ice; light, darkness, wind, thunder.

The effects vary, but this is not absolute. Chaos is too abstract; who knows what works well and what doesn't?

What if we look at it from the perspective of the Azure Dragon? The Azure Dragon belongs to the element of wood and governs spring thunder, wind, and rain.

Some might even insist that it's related to time and space.

The Azure Dragon represents the East, a fixed spatial coordinate, and also represents spring; the changing of the four seasons is the cycle of time.

This can be described as a coordinate system of space and time; in the Douluo Continent, time and space are the primary attributes.

It won't conflict with other attributes, so you can start from this direction.

It would be best to consider this from these angles as well.

"Sigh! It's tough!"

Xuanqing lay on the ground feeling a headache.

He suddenly remembered something and raised his hand to slap himself twice.

"Damn! This space is boundless; who knows, there might be other treasures hidden here?"

"Let's go treasure hunting!"

He put the little Qilin on his shoulder, and the two of them started to stroll around.

After wandering around for about an hour, we found an altar. There were two stone tablets on the altar.

It is engraved with two sets of exercises.

The Chaos Yin-Yang Codex: It can absorb all elements and transform them into chaotic energy.

"Azure Dragon Profound Heaven Technique": The Dragon Clan's method of body refinement. When mastered, the physical body can shatter stars.

Xuan Qing's eyes lit up.

It seems to be an exclusive cultivation technique! It's a pity there are no accompanying supernatural abilities, only cultivation methods.

A long spear was stuck in the center of the altar, and a large seal stood on the other side.

Xuanqing tried to pull out the spear, but it wouldn't budge.

He touched the large seal, which was as tall as a person, again.

The seal suddenly shrank, becoming the size of a brick.

Xuanqing was stunned.

"A brick???"

He remembered that the Ancestral Dragon had the Ancestral Dragon Pearl, but the Azure Dragon was not the Ancestral Dragon, so it was reasonable for him to use a gun.

Among the beasts, the Qilin is the leader. The original Qilin had a square Qilin seal. Could this seal be a magic weapon of the Qilin clan?

No matter what novel it is, the magical artifact related to the Qilin is always the Great Seal.

He didn't intend to go out; instead, he sat cross-legged on the altar and began to ponder carefully.

Could it be that the little guy isn't his martial soul? I hadn't thought about it carefully before, but now it's come to my attention.

Twin martial souls must have innate full soul power. In other words, they are currently only similar to companion spirit beasts.

It's not a true martial soul engraved in his soul yet, otherwise his talent should be that of a person with innate full soul power.

It seems they haven't fully accepted him yet, or rather, they must evolve the Azure Scale Python into an Azure Dragon before the two will be considered equals.

That explains why the spear didn't recognize him.

After all, his current martial soul isn't a blue dragon, but just a giant python, and the Qilin Seal doesn't recognize him.

It was the little Qilin that was connected to part of his soul; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to move it even if he worked himself to death.

In this light, the reward for the Qilin Divine Trial becomes quite intriguing: level ten innate soul power?

After completion, his innate soul power will reach level fifteen. This is equivalent to completing his foundation, that's right!

With this in mind, Xuanqing walked to the stone tablet and decided to practice the Chaos Yin Yang Scripture first.

It's not that he doesn't want to cultivate his body; both are important. He understands the saying "the poor study literature, the rich study martial arts."

If the nutrition for body training isn't up to par, it's easy to ruin yourself, and he doesn't have much money right now.

Sixty gold soul coins may seem like a lot, but that's only true for ordinary people.
