Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Mysterious Heavy Ruler

Chapter 220 Confiscating the Spoils of War

No one knows about what happened between Tang Xiao and Tang San, and no one cares. They're just two clowns; it's just something to watch and have fun with. The real focus is on Xiao Yi, the winner of this battle.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yi was studying the Xuan Tian Bao Lu, because what he found in the childhood scoundrel's memories was the traditional Chinese characters from his previous life.

"Tsk, this Xuan Tian Bao Lu isn't all that great. This nobody treats it like a treasure, and there are even areas for improvement."

After studying the Xuan Tian Bao Lu for a while, Xiao Yi came to a conclusion: the Xuan Tian Bao Lu was a useless book. Only the Xuan Tian Gong, Ghost Shadow Tracking, and Purple Extreme Demon Eye were somewhat useful; the rest were utter nonsense.

The Mysterious Heaven Skill can open up the eight extraordinary meridians and allow Soul Masters to cultivate faster. The quality of the Soul Power cultivated is slightly higher than that of normal meditation methods, but only slightly. After all, the Martial Souls on the Douluo Continent have been cultivating for so long, and the Martial Souls are incredibly diverse, with each Martial Soul possessing different Soul Power. For example, Angels cultivate Light Soul Power, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragons cultivate Lightning Soul Power, and the Seven Kill Sword's Soul Power is extremely sharp. The Mysterious Heaven Skill, on the other hand, can only be described as having no attribute Soul Power. However, the Mysterious Heaven Skill recovers very quickly, meaning it is inexhaustible.

Ghostly Shadow is a movement technique. If an agility-type Soul Master obtains it, their speed will be even faster. As someone once said, speed is power. If you are fast enough, your strength will not be weak either.

As for the Purple Demon Eye, it is quite remarkable. It can enhance mental power. The cultivation method is to absorb the purple energy of sunrise every day. In the original work, the little rascal used the Dew of Looking Through Autumn Water and the Ice and Fire Immortal Grass of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring beyond his level. After absorbing the spiritual soul bone, he also gained a spiritual power soul skill called Purple Divine Light. After fusing with the Heart of the Sea God, he even reached the fourth realm and possessed the spiritual power of a Limit Douluo.

As for the remaining three, Xiao Yi felt they were neither worth keeping nor worth discarding, because they were for use with concealed weapons. No respectable person would use concealed weapons; those who do are considered scoundrels.

Xiao Yi even thought that the Xuan Tian Gong was not originally from the Tang Clan. How could someone who plays with hidden weapons have a Taoist technique? Maybe someone from the Tang Clan took a fancy to it, killed the owner, and took it for themselves. Don't disbelieve me, what can't someone who plays with hidden weapons do?

"Tsk, fine, I'll take these three. I'll take them back and let Chrysanthemum Douluo study them later," Xiao Yi said, scratching his head.

Then Xiao Yi took out paper and pen from his soul tool and wrote down the Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, and Ghost Shadow Tracing in Douluo's handwriting. These things were useless to someone of his level. He had already been named a Douluo and still had a soul core, so he didn't need them. Xiao Yi thought about taking them back and letting Chrysanthemum Douluo study them to see if they could be improved, and then distribute them to talented people.

Before long, Xiao Yi finished writing down the three documents and then put away the paper and pen.

"Hiss! I almost forgot, the Poison Manual seems to be somewhat useful. It just so happens that Grandpa also plays with poison. Writing it down and combining it with the Poison Techniques of the Breaking Clan should make it even more powerful." Xiao Yi suddenly remembered the Poison Manual as he put away the paper and pen.

The Tang Clan's Poison Manual contains many deadly poisons, such as Yama's Talisman, Mother-Child Soul-Chasing Life-Taking Gallbladder, and Pulling Silk Powder. These are all extremely potent toxins, and even a slight touch can lead to certain death. However, this should be considered a very good gift for Dugu Bo, since the old man is currently fond of making medicine.

Xiao Yi then wrote down the list of deadly poisons in the Poison Codex, intending to give it to Dugu Bo when he returned.

"Let me see what's on the leader of the number one sect in the world."

After putting away the paper and pen, Xiao Yi began to touch the corpse. It would have been better if he hadn't touched it, because once he did, he found something.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a good person, not only offering up a head but also a bone, I'm really sorry." Xiao Yi said, looking at the soul bone in his hand.

Tang Xiao actually possessed a full set of soul bones, all over ten thousand years old, though not as good as Tang Hao's, but still enough to make him look like a sect leader.

"Forget it, let's just keep these soul bones in the storeroom. We won't need them anyway," Xiao Yi said, pursing his lips.

Although these soul bones are all over 10,000 years old, most of them are only 20,000 to 30,000 years old. They may be useless to him, but others may need them. He can put them in the treasure vault and distribute them as rewards based on their contributions.

Then Xiao Yi took out an empty soul tool and put Tang Xiao's soul bone away. He planned to continue to see what was inside Tang Xiao's soul tool. "Wow. Xiao Zi has such a good thing?" Xiao Yi was a little stunned when he saw what was inside after opening Tang Xiao's soul tool.

Inside was a 90,000-year-old left arm bone, and its soul power was extremely abundant, indicating that it had never been absorbed.

"It seems that Tang Xiao's ninth spirit ring was dropped," Xiao Yi said with a smirk.

When Xiao Yi first saw this soul bone, he was completely stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it might have been dropped by Tang Xiao's ninth soul ring.

The higher the age of a soul beast, the greater the chance of it dropping a soul bone. A soul bone is equivalent to the crystallization of a soul beast's cultivation. The reason why soul beasts with lower age have a lower chance of dropping soul bones is because their cultivation is not high enough, and their bloodline is not strong enough. If the bloodline is strong enough, the chance of dropping a soul bone is quite high. Of course, it still depends on luck.

"Never mind, it's mine." Xiao Yi shook his head, putting his thoughts to the back of his mind.

After counting the spoils, Xiao Yi pocketed them.

"Well, although you are enemies, I still appreciate the generous gift you sent. In return, I will annihilate you." Xiao Yi said, looking at the dead Tang Xiao and Tang San.

The harvest this time was great. Not only did they obtain three items from the Xuan Tian Treasure Record, but they also obtained seven soul bones, two of which were of extremely high age. One was the inherited soul bone of the Haotian Sect, and the other was dropped by Tang Xiao's ninth soul ring. Both were over 70,000 years old. Xiao Yi decided to make Tang San and Xiao Zi disappear into ashes as a token of his gratitude.

The next moment, a cluster of flames rose in Xiao Yi's hand, and then Xiao Yi released the flames onto the two of them.

After Xiao Yi released the flames, he left. He was quite confident in his flames. Besides, how could two corpses come back to life?

Not long after Xiao Yi left, the bodies of Tang Xiao and the other turned to ashes, which were scattered by a gentle breeze, as if the two of them had never existed.

On his way back to the Spirit Hall, Xiao Yi pondered what would happen next.

"Hmm... I'm already level 95, it's time to condense my second soul core, but I'll have to wait until after I destroy the Haotian Sect," Xiao Yi thought to himself.

Xiao Yi already has a spiritual soul core, which was formed at level 80. Now it's time to form a second soul core. For the next soul core, Xiao Yi plans to form a spatial soul core, following the path of yin and yang complementarity.

Although the current method of condensing a single soul core only works, it will only be a complete method of condensing a soul core if Golden Crocodile Douluo successfully condenses a soul core of the same position and enters level 99.

As for the Yin-Yang complementary soul core, it was completely a mystery. Xiao Yi was just relying on being the Asura God's favorite son, so he could recklessly court death. Even if he messed things up, the Asura God would still save him.

Xiao Yi was prepared to proceed with confidence and boldness. If successful, this would bring about an epic change in the Soul Master world. Title Douluo would no longer be so noble, and the bottleneck of level 90 would be much easier to overcome.

In just a few hundred years, the strength of Douluo Continent will likely reach the level of ten thousand years from now, and the number of Title Douluos will be much greater. However, at that time, it will be beyond Xiao Yi's control.

However, this can only be done after the Haotian Sect is destroyed. It would be too time-consuming to gather strength now. Destroying the Haotian Sect should be done as soon as possible.
