Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 10 A Chance Encounter in the Library

In the blink of an eye, Su Cheng had been in Wuhun City for more than ten days and had become familiar with many elders of the Wuhun Hall.

In particular, Ju Douluo Yueguan liked to come to him to learn about medicine whenever he had free time. Su Cheng was happy to build a good relationship with him and did not keep many of his research results to himself.

As a level 94 Title Douluo, Yue Guan has a very deep understanding of martial souls, which is Su Cheng's weakness. Through the exchange, Yue Guan has gained a lot of knowledge.

It's worth noting that the two strongest members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, are only level 92 at the moment.

As for Bibi Dong, I haven't seen her since that day.

However, this was within Su Cheng's expectations.

As the new Pope, Bibi Dong has a shallow foundation in the Spirit Hall, so she must be extremely busy on weekdays.

This was exactly what Su Cheng wanted.

That woman had extreme views, was incredibly powerful, and her thought process was different from ordinary people. If he hadn't known that she had Yu Xiaogang as a psychological weakness, he would have had a very difficult time finding a way to break the deadlock.

Recently, Su Cheng has been spending almost all his time in the library.

It has to be said that the difference in resources and foundation between these forces is truly enormous.

Information on 100,000-year-old soul beast races, top-tier martial soul classifications, martial soul development strategies, and self-created soul skill techniques, which are rarely seen in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, is almost everywhere here.

Unfortunately, although the library contains information on various titled Douluo on the continent, it does not include the seven Grand Masters of the Hall of Worship.

Su Cheng remembered that among the seven elders, Qianjun and Jiangmo had their martial souls sealed within their Dragon-Panning Staffs, containing a Demon-Slaying Dragon and a Heavenly Awakening Golden Dragon, respectively.

Without a doubt, every powerful individual who can reach level 95 or above as a Super Douluo without relying on cheats has their own unique strengths.

Being able to enter the offering hall is no ordinary privilege.

Su Cheng stretched out his right hand, and with a flash of light, a long sword covered in cracks appeared in his palm, with two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, shimmering with a soft halo.

"Sealing alien beasts within weapon spirits can enhance combat power and add more tactical systems, which is indeed a good idea. But how is that done? Also, will there be any other side effects, such as weakening the purity of weapon spirits in certain aspects?" He pondered to himself.

"Both the Clear Sky Hammer and the Seven Kill Sword are top-tier weapon spirits that have reached their pinnacle in a certain aspect, but it seems that none of the people who possess these two types of weapon spirits have ever added an additional 'beast' attribute to them. Is it that they can't, or that they don't want to?"

Su Cheng's previous research focused more on the human body, and his understanding of martial spirits was limited, since his talent points were allocated to the path of medicine.

Choosing "true scholar" as your initial talent might be more suitable for research.

"Weapon spirit, beast spirit..." Su Cheng's face seemed thoughtful.

The martial spirit contains profound mysteries, and even after countless years of development in the Douluo Continent, the relationship between spirit beasts and humans is not so simple.

Soul beasts can transform into humans after 100,000 years and can even offer sacrifices to humans.

The beast-like state after being possessed by a beast spirit, and the influence of different inherited spirits on a person's personality, are all worthy of careful consideration.

Yu Xiaogang's so-called core competitiveness of martial spirit is not even scratching the surface.

Su Cheng looked at his broken sword martial spirit.

Although it still doesn't look good and is full of cracks, his martial soul is actually very tough thanks to the support of the thousand-year soul ring.

"My innate soul power is only level 0.5, a malignant mutation caused by conflicting attributes. But the improvement from the second soul ring after a thousand years is far greater than I initially expected. Perhaps..."

Over the years, Su Cheng's understanding of the essence of martial souls remains limited, but he has figured out his own situation.

"We can try to continuously add extreme attributes to the martial soul by relying on spirit rings, which may have a chance to improve or even reverse this situation."

As for whether he could succeed, he had no idea.

It is extremely difficult for a martial soul to change after awakening, unless one awakens their bloodline with the help of the Blue Silver King like Tang San, or consumes rare and precious herbs that are compatible with their martial soul.

Immortal Herb could consider using the power of the Spirit Hall to find the exact location in Sunset Forest later, which would also make it easier to plan after returning to reality.

"Impressive. I've long heard that although Mr. Su only has 0.5 level of innate soul power, he has walked a path that no one in the world has ever imagined. Seeing him today, he is truly extraordinary."

Just as Su Cheng was pondering the issue of martial souls, a clear and melodious female voice came from behind him. Previously, there was no one else in the library; he was the only one there, browsing through various materials.

Su Cheng turned around and saw a bright-eyed, white-toothed girl with blonde hair and snow-white skin standing not far behind him, her hands behind her back, looking at the two-ring martial soul in his hand with great interest.

Although the girl was young, her stunning beauty was already beginning to emerge, and just one glance was enough to make one's heart flutter.

Perhaps due to her martial spirit, Qian Renxue looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old at this time, but her actual age should be more than nine.

"It's nothing." Su Cheng didn't retract his martial spirit, but continued, "It's just that most people are ignorant, which makes me stand out from the crowd."

His remarks surprised Qian Renxue slightly.

Is that so unhumble?

She didn't come here on purpose to look for Su Cheng.

The Spirit Hall is now mainly divided into two factions: the Pope's faction led by Bibi Dong, and the Worshipper's faction led by Qian Daoliu.

Qian Renxue had a cold relationship with her mother, Bibi Dong, since childhood. When she was in Wuhun City, she basically stayed either in the Hall of Worship or in the Library.

Having received permission from Bibi Dong to return to Wuhun City these past two days, although Bibi Dong had mentioned that Su Cheng had joined the Wuhun Hall and was preparing to take on disciples, he didn't take it to heart, let alone consider becoming a disciple.

I came to the library today out of habit, and also to look up some more information.

On the contrary, Su Cheng had long been mentally prepared to encounter Qian Renxue here.

"Hehe, Mr. Su, you're quite the joker." His sudden change of attitude left Qian Renxue speechless for a moment.

"Why would I joke with a little girl like you who doesn't know anything?"

Su Cheng glanced at her.

"Even a cultivation failure with a mere 0.5 level of innate soul power can find a way to overcome the so-called age limit. For thousands of years, the Douluo Continent has actually regarded the so-called age limit for soul ring absorption as a truth. I don't know what they've been doing."

That's a bit malicious, but the key point is that it's all true, leaving no room for rebuttal.

Adding to the title of "little girl," even with Qian Renxue's composure and self-control, she was starting to lose her composure.

She didn't know if Su Cheng was aware of her identity and power as the daughter of the former pope, and she assumed he wasn't. But even if he did know, what should she say now?

People have already admitted that he's a cultivation failure, so why bring that up again?

In the end, he might become a genius with level 20 innate soul power, but he'd be worse off than a useless person with level 0.5 innate soul power.

He gritted his teeth inwardly, but forced a smile and said, "Mr. Su is right."
