In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 140 Longing for the Dew and Speculation on the Artificial Second Martial Soul

Another quarter of an hour passed.

The giant white and red energy cocoon dissipated, revealing Wang Zhao inside. He seemed to have changed little except for being a bit taller, fairer, and more handsome than before, except that he was completely naked.

However, when he calmly opened his eyes, a dazzling light of deep blue and crimson gold suddenly shone in his pair of crystal-clear pupils.

The brilliance, like a deep vortex, gradually disappeared, and Wang Zhao's eyes returned to normal.

Suddenly, he raised his left hand and pointed towards the surrounding mountain wall. A flash of blue light appeared in his left eye, and the mountain wall instantly froze.

He raised his right hand again, pointing to the already frozen mountain wall. A flash of crimson gold light appeared in his right eye, and the ice melted instantly.

"The ultimate..."

Wang Zhao murmured softly, his usually calm eyes suddenly filled with excitement.

"This is the ultimate power, the ultimate cold light, the ultimate blazing light, and it is also connected with the martial soul... If we add the ultimate power, the golden scale has gathered three ultimate powers."

"With all three combined, even without relying on special circumstances, I am fully capable of fighting a Soul Saint, and perhaps even defeating them!"

"Furthermore, the transformation from extreme cold to extreme heat did not slow down my cultivation speed. On the contrary, because I didn't counteract the energies of the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Blazing Apricot Delicate Leaves like Tang San in the original story, they not only helped me advance my Soul Power to level 49, but also left a large amount of medicinal power hidden in my body, which will continue to promote the growth of Soul Power. After offsetting the drag from the extreme power attribute that Jin Lin had previously experienced, my Soul Power cultivation speed is now even faster than that of a normal Soul Master!"

Wang Zhao let out a long sigh of relief, calmed down, and then raised his hand to release the golden scales.

"roar!"

The next moment, a fifty-meter-long platinum dragon roared out. Its aura grew increasingly fierce, while the flowing light on its back wings became much more restrained, leaving only the protruding bone spikes as ferocious and profound as crystal cones, without appearing flashy. It only exhaled slightly, yet it sent chills down one's spine. Its aura was as deep and unfathomable as a hell. Its dragon eyes were serene, one a deep blue and the other a crimson gold, like those of the earliest Wang Zhao, but they did not dissipate quickly, but remained, as if the coldness of the moon and the warmth of the sun flowed within them.

The man and the dragon stared at each other for a moment before Wang Zhao looked away, took out an ordinary black robe from his storage ring and put it on, then looked at the phantom of Electrolux.

"Elder Yi, you should return to your sea of ​​consciousness first. When I take the Dew of Longing for Autumn Water later, it may cause some disturbance."

"Um."

Upon hearing this, Electrolux nodded and then disappeared.

Wang Zhao then plucked the "Looking Through Autumn Waters Dew" and dripped the dew onto its surface into his mouth. The immortal herb with its green branches and white leaves instantly withered and turned into dust.

However, Wang Zhao quickly collected the dust in a jade bottle. After all, waste is shameful, and even if the immortal herb lost its medicinal properties, it was still undoubtedly precious and at least had research value.

The next moment, Wang Zhao closed his eyes, sat down cross-legged, and began to quietly digest the medicinal power with his five palms facing the sky.

Before long, Wang Zhao felt a cool sensation in his mind, as if he were in the ocean on a hot summer day, with cool tea and fruit by his side.

The medicinal power of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew" went directly to Wang Zhao's sea of ​​consciousness. Suddenly, a magnificent gray light burst forth from the Electrolux within his sea of ​​consciousness, helping Wang Zhao to circulate and digest the energy. At the same time, a thought suddenly struck him, and he uttered some secret incantations. Strands of mysterious gray-gold runes floated out and merged into Wang Zhao's sea of ​​consciousness along with the medicinal power of the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew".

"This is……"

At this moment, Wang Zhao, who was feeling the most clearly, suddenly realized that he had inexplicably learned some profound knowledge, as if he had learned it without a teacher. However, he quickly realized that it was Electrolux who was teaching him.

The specific content being taught seems to be necromancy?!

"Wang Zhao".

Just then, Electrolux's calm voice rang out.

"Remember when I told you that the bridge between light and the dead is life?"

"Although you did not embark on the pure path of light early on, that White Dragon Pill should be able to help you achieve considerable success on the path of light, using your first soul ring as a medium. In addition, the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Blossom you just consumed have created a small Yin-Yang Well within your body, from which Yin and Yang give rise to a high-level special energy that is almost life-like. You are already qualified to get involved with the undead."

"My divine consciousness resides within your sea of ​​consciousness, and sooner or later it will inevitably fall into permanent silence. My original plan was to follow your train of thought, guiding you to absorb a light-attribute soul ring with death-related characteristics, and then using this as a medium to construct a magical framework for you through the power of fragments of divine consciousness, teaching you necromancy. However, over the years, as I've followed you and come to understand the wonders of the Douluo Continent more and more, I can't help but think that perhaps I can create something unique for you—"

"Second Martial Soul!"

"Old Master Yi, what do you mean?"

Wang Zhao raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this.

Electrolux suddenly changed the subject, saying, "I remember you once mentioned to me that martial souls can be inherited across generations."

"That's right, like me..."

Wang Zhao nodded.

"So, does that mean that when a Soul Master awakens their Martial Soul in a generation after another, the Martial Soul bloodline of their closest direct parents will disappear?"

Electrolux then asked.

"uncertain."

Wang Zhao pondered for a moment, unable to answer the question immediately, and then gave a vague reply.

"Absolutely not."

Electrolux, however, insisted, and before Wang Zhao could even question it, he began to explain on his own.

"Because through my research in my spare time over the past few years, and the discovery of the energy dissipation waves from the 'Looking Through the Dewdrop' just now, it seems that there are two tangible but intangible phantom imprints deep within your martial soul origin, shaped like a sickle and grass respectively."

"Those are your parents' martial souls, right?"

"...That's right!"

Wang Zhao couldn't help but widen his eyes. He suddenly had a premonition that the conversation the two were having at this moment might touch upon the most fundamental mystery of the Martial Soul system in the Douluo world.

"Since the martial soul inheritance imprint of one's direct parents will not completely disappear no matter what, the other one might not be unable to awaken. This means that everyone has the potential to become a twin martial soul master. In fact, a rare intergenerational awakening like yours could potentially awaken the martial souls of both direct parents, achieving an unprecedented three-life martial soul."

Electrolux spoke eloquently.

"Of course, this is just a guess. I haven't fully researched the Martial Soul system yet. But Wang Zhao, I'm very familiar with scythes. Combining the memories in my divine sense with the framework of necromancy, I'll be able to create a special second scythe Martial Soul for you in the future."

Haha~

After saying that, Electrolux enthusiastically entered Wang Zhao's sea of ​​consciousness, seemingly falling asleep again. In reality, it was as if he had been infected by Wang Zhao, immersing himself in the mysteries of martial souls.

Wang Zhao was momentarily at a loss for words, feeling both amused and exasperated.
