Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 123 Sword Spirit?

Hearing Su Cheng slander Tang Hao, A Yin was immediately displeased.

But since she needed someone's help, she didn't immediately object; she just frowned slightly.

Judging from Su Cheng's words, it seemed that he had met her lover and son before, and even knew about their past.

Ah Yin naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity.

He quickly said, "No, you don't need to bring my original body."

"What do you mean?"

"I can sense that your martial spirit is very special, capable of accommodating my current soul. I can reside within your martial spirit."

"Oh?" Su Cheng was surprised upon hearing this.

At that moment, he suddenly thought of the two elders of the Spirit Hall, Thousand-Pound Douluo and Demon-Slaying Douluo.

He had previously had a similar idea: to make up for the defects of his martial soul by sealing a certain strange beast. However, since his martial soul transformed into the Longevity Sword, this idea has faded.

"I don't even know how to do it myself, how can you do it?" Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and looked at Ah Yin.

"It should be possible." Ah Yin nodded, glancing cautiously at the vertical lines on Su Cheng's forehead.

Unlike Su Cheng's situation.

Su Cheng was the one who used his soul skill to create this special communication environment. He could observe Ah Yin's situation, but he didn't know how she was feeling at this moment.

However, as the object being observed, and being a pure spirit, Ah Yin was able to better perceive the peculiarity of this strange vision.

Moreover, there was a faint sense of summoning emanating from that seemingly flawless longsword spirit.

Seeing the hesitation in Su Cheng's expression, A Yin quickly added, "This won't do you any harm. I can feel that my presence can complement the attributes of your martial soul sword."

"You can sense that too?"

This time, Su Cheng was genuinely surprised.

Instead of choosing the wood attribute for his fourth spirit ring, he absorbed the ten-thousand-year spirit ring of a fire attribute spirit beast.

Since the Five Elements cycle is about to be completed and I already possess the Five Elements Domain, the fourth Soul Ring can be either Fire or Wood.

Su Cheng had always harbored some thoughts about the Blue Silver King.

However, unlike the hiding place of the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone, there were no obvious landmarks where the Blue Silver King was located, so he couldn't find him at all.

Moreover, without the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, even if he found the other party's location, the Five Elements Domain alone would not be enough to deceive the Blue Silver King and obtain the Soul Ring, so he was not in a hurry.

For Su Cheng, the characteristics and age of the spirit ring itself were not important; the key was that he wanted to understand the principle behind the natural method of condensing spirit rings.

If Su Cheng can grasp the underlying principles, he will never have to worry about adding spirit rings again.

From then on, all spirit rings could be formed according to the limits of one's own body.

Compared to hunting soul beasts or even the so-called divinely bestowed soul rings, Su Cheng instinctively felt that this natural method of condensation was the best approach.

After thinking it over, Su Cheng did not refuse A Yin's suggestion.

If the other party is the soul of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, he definitely wouldn't agree.

But given Ah Yin's current state, even if she were to reside within a martial soul, it wouldn't have the slightest impact on him.

Moreover, if you can keep it with you, it will be easier to observe it in the future and prevent other unexpected changes from happening if you leave it here, which is not a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Su Cheng looked at the Blue Silver Emperor before him and said in a deep voice, "Then let's begin. What do we need to do?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin's face lit up with joy, and she said, "You don't need to do anything, just bring your martial spirit closer to me."

She had this idea not only because she wanted to go out and see if she could see her lover and son, but also for other reasons.

She could feel it.

If she could obtain Su Cheng's permission to enter the Longevity Sword to nurture her soul, it would also be of great benefit to her.

Su Cheng handed over the Longevity Sword, which hung in front of Ah Yin.

Seeing this, Ah Yin also stretched out her fair and slender hand and gently grasped the hilt of the Longevity Sword.

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened.

The moment her soul touched the Longevity Sword.

The golden mark between Su Cheng's eyebrows suddenly emitted a bright light.

He instantly felt his spiritual power pour out like a flood, surging into the external soul bone between his eyebrows.

At the same time, above his sea of ​​consciousness, the light spot of unknown height suddenly flickered slightly.

In an instant, Ah Yin felt a tremendous chill, like a raging torrent, surge from the depths of her heart.

Then the chill surged in like a tsunami, giving her the illusion that a great calamity was about to befall her.

Although she was only in a phantom soul form at this moment, she was enveloped by a great terror, as if she were naked in a jungle, surrounded by malice, leaving her nowhere to hide.

In that instant, instinct screamed at her to run away.

That's what she did too.

Without hesitation, and without any desire to resist this instinct, I wanted to loosen my grip.

However, it was too late.

From the moment her soul touched Su Cheng's martial soul, it was already destined that she could not escape.

If she were still the same 100,000-year-old soul beast, Su Cheng's mental strength would naturally be unable to restrain her.

But now, Ah Yin clearly doesn't have that power, nor is she able to resist.

The next moment, Su Cheng and Ah Yin both lost consciousness.

However, Su Cheng fell into a coma due to exhaustion of his mental energy.

Ah Yin was different. At this moment, she was emitting a faint five-colored light from the inside out. Her spirit body seemed to be being transformed little by little, and then gradually merged into the Longevity Sword Martial Soul.

I don't know how much time passed.

Ah Yin's spirit floated out of Su Cheng's body.

She stared blankly at the unconscious Su Cheng, but no thought of resisting or harming him arose in her mind.

At this moment, she felt completely controlled by the other party.

It was almost as if he had become the other party's martial spirit.

No, she was even inferior to a martial soul; she was merely a spirit imprisoned within a martial soul.

With a myriad of thoughts swirling in her mind, Ah Yin's expression constantly shifted.

A blush first appeared on her face, then quickly turned pale, and a sense of despair even surfaced in her heart.

But at this moment, even her life and death were not in her own hands.

Not long after, Su Cheng also slowly woke up.

Immediately, I felt a sharp pain in my brain.

The feeling of being completely drained of mental energy is extremely uncomfortable. It feels like the body has been completely hollowed out, and even the slightest thought is difficult to achieve.

He took out several bottles of medicine from his soul tool and swallowed them all, which made him feel a little better.

There was no other way; even if his mental strength was reduced to the last trace, his foundation allowed him to recover quickly without the need for medication.

But if it's completely exhausted, the process will be much slower.

"What did you do to me?"

At this moment, Ah Yin, who was standing opposite him, finally spoke.

However, his eyes were unusually empty, and his tone was blank, with a hint of resentment and bitterness.

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't do anything?" Su Cheng glanced at her and said calmly.

"You didn't do anything?!" Even with Ah Yin's temperament, she could no longer suppress her anger. "Can't you feel it yourself?!"

"I can sense it, but I really don't know what's going on." Su Cheng frowned. "Besides, wasn't this your suggestion? Why blame me?"

"..." Upon hearing this, Ah Yin stared blankly at Su Cheng.

Then a bitter look appeared in his eyes, "Yes, it was my initiative..."

Su Cheng was also somewhat puzzled, but he had indeed realized that he had completely taken control of the other party.

Even her existence and destruction are entirely within her own control.

After thinking it over, Su Cheng didn't dwell on it too much.

The current unexpected event is clearly not bad for him.

As a bizarre and extraordinary world, there are far too many mysterious things that can happen here, and it is inevitable that some things will get out of control.

Not to mention the Eye of True Sight, which is inherently linked to a higher level of existence like a simulator.

He wasn't surprised by some of the extraordinary abilities, especially since he was clearly the one benefiting now.

Su Cheng could already sense that his Longevity Sword was nearing completion.

Although the benefits provided by Ah Yin's spirit body were far less than those from the soul ring, it did indeed play a positive role in the five elements cycle within the Longevity Sword, which was beneficial to his cultivation.

Moreover, with the addition of this spiritual entity within his martial soul, if used properly, it would undoubtedly help him better control the Longevity Sword and unleash more complex soul skills.

Thinking of this, Su Cheng changed his previous indifferent attitude and began to persuade Ah Yin, who had a blank look in her eyes.

"Well, this wasn't my intention either. Don't worry, while I can influence your actions to some extent, I certainly won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. As compensation, I can answer anything you want to know."

Now that we have complete control over the other party, there is no need to engage in any fair exchange or swapping.

The other person cannot lie to him.

Upon hearing Su Cheng's words, A Yin looked up and stared at him blankly.

He remained silent for a long time, his face full of confusion.

Su Cheng didn't urge him, but stood aside patiently waiting.

He took the opportunity to quietly circulate his cultivation technique, accelerating the recovery of his depleted spiritual energy.

After a long silence, Ah Yin finally spoke again.

"Now can you tell me what's going on with that child?"

"Your child is named Tang San. He is indeed not dead and lives with Tang Hao."

Ah Yin had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Su Cheng say again, "But his soul was replaced by someone else."

"What do you mean?" Ah Yin's beautiful eyes widened slightly, not understanding the meaning behind his words for a moment.

"To put it simply, although Tang San is theoretically your son and has even inherited your martial soul, his soul has been taken over by someone else. It is the soul of an adult in that body."

After thinking for a moment, Su Cheng continued to explain, "To be precise, I think from an ethical standpoint, he shouldn't be considered your son. After all, in our Douluo Continent, there is indeed the concept of a soul. Well, just like you are now."

These words sent chills down Ah Yin's spine.

A wave of nausea washed over me, followed by a sense of absurdity.

"Even after all this, you're still lying to me?!"

Ah Yin's voice trembled slightly.

Even with her extensive knowledge, she had never heard of such a bizarre thing.

Moreover, she didn't want to believe that such a thing could happen.

"Yeah, you're in this state, why would I lie to you?" Su Cheng raised an eyebrow and asked in return.

Have you ever seen a six or seven-year-old child who can invent hidden weapons and use them to injure or even kill Soul Masters whose cultivation level is two or three levels higher than his?

"Have you ever seen a child who can cultivate techniques from birth and also has innate soul skills?"

"Do you think a normal family's child, with a deadbeat father who drinks all day and doesn't care about his life, could still live to be six years old and awaken innate full soul power?"

Su Cheng said calmly, "If you still don't want to believe it, you'll understand when you see him. Don't worry, it won't be long, probably only two years, then everything will be clear."

Ah Yin stared at him blankly, slowly processing the information contained in his words.

Suddenly, she frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean by 'ignoring whether an alcoholic lives or dies'?"

"What else could it mean? It seems that Tang Hao wants your 'son' to be reincarnated as soon as possible. Anyway, as far as I know, Tang San basically survived on his own when he was a child."

At this point, Su Cheng slowed down his speech, a thoughtful expression appearing on his face.

"To be honest, I originally thought Tang Hao was too stupid to notice Tang San's strange behavior, but now it seems that he might have noticed it all along, but just hadn't figured out how to deal with it."

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin's heart trembled slightly.

If Tang Hao really knew the truth but deliberately let it go, then she was extremely disappointed. She didn't want to believe that her lover would have such a mindset.

But if it's not because of this, then it really is as Su Cheng said, that her reaction was too slow, which obviously damaged Tang Hao's image in her heart.

Moreover, if nothing is really wrong, then they shouldn't ignore the child's life or death.

After a long pause, Ah Yin stared intently at Su Cheng and said coldly, "I don't believe what you're saying."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Su Cheng scoffed. "We'll see in a couple of years anyway, what good would it do me to lie to you? I'm only telling you this because I feel sorry for you. If you don't believe me, then I won't say anything."

"..."

Seeing Ah Yin remain silent, Su Cheng reached out and touched his chin, muttering to himself softly.

"Actually, I'm more inclined to believe that Tang Hao simply didn't notice anything strange about it, because his behavior has always been quite foolish. After all, only the Tang family would dare to take a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast and run around the world with the cultivation of a Soul Douluo."

"You're not allowed to talk about him like that!" Ah Yin glared at Su Cheng.

"The successor of Haotian Douluo! What a prestigious title. Doesn't he know how many people in the world are watching him?" Su Cheng looked at A Yin with a half-smile.

"Well, you could say he's not stupid, but that would be really strange. What do you think was his intention in wanting to parade you around like that?"

"Are they waiting for you to be sacrificed?"

Ah Yin's face turned pale instantly, and she quickly shook her head in denial, saying, "No, Hao wouldn't do that."

"Yes, I actually agree with what you said." Su Cheng nodded slightly in agreement.

"If you really want your spirit ring, there are plenty of better opportunities. Of course, it's also possible that it was difficult to make a move because he wasn't level 90 at the time, but the risk of attracting the Spirit Hall's attention was just too great."

"If it were me, I would rather wait a few more years. Anyway, I have a 100,000-year soul ring that I can get at any time. Why bother competing for the title of the youngest Title Douluo?"

"And judging from his reaction after your sacrifice, it certainly didn't seem like an act."

Su Cheng gently stroked his cheek with his fingers, continuing to impart his analytical thinking to A Yin.

"However, after your sacrifice, his escapist behavior seems quite cowardly, completely different from his previous actions. Is it because he was successful at a young age, and now reality has finally taught him a lesson?"

Ah Yin stared blankly at Su Cheng.

She murmured, "How do you know so much about their situation?"

The young man before her, in terms of both cultivation level and soul ring configuration, far exceeded her preconceived notions about soul masters.

Her words just now left her speechless and unable to refute them.

Faced with Ah Yin's questioning, Su Cheng chuckled and said, "Because I've met your son before. We went to the same junior soul master academy."

"His surname is Tang. He clearly has a trashy Blue Silver Grass martial soul, yet he was able to awaken it into a full innate soul power. Anyone with a normal brain would suspect that there might be something wrong with this, right?"

"After that, I did some investigation and dug up all your old stories. Unfortunately, I have a good relationship with a high-ranking member of the Spirit Hall and was able to obtain some inside information."

Ah Yin looked astonished and exclaimed, "You're from the Spirit Hall?"

"Not really, it's just that I have a good relationship with someone." Su Cheng waved his hand lightly. "Forget it, these things are none of your concern. Instead of being curious about my situation, you should think about what's going on with your son. Hmm, you can also reflect on why you would fall for someone like Tang Hao."

"Tang Hao is far more outstanding than you imagine!" Ah Yin said urgently, her face flushed. "He's talented, ambitious, and fearless. He's always the first to step forward in the face of danger and never puts me in any perilous situation!"

"Your naiveté makes me want to laugh." Su Cheng's face showed a hint of mockery.

"I don't know how long you, a dignified soul beast with 100,000 years of cultivation, have actually lived, but it seems that you've only increased your cultivation without growing your brain, or perhaps you've really never seen anything like this."

Su Cheng's voice turned cold.

His courage stemmed solely from strength. The brave, in their anger, draw their swords against the stronger. The cowardly, in their anger, draw their swords against the weaker. Strength is not a symbol of courage.

"To be honest, I think he's not as good as you in this respect."

Do you know what happened after you died?

"At that time, because of your sacrifice, the Pope of the Spirit Hall and Tang Hao were both severely injured. The Clear Sky Sect was angered and forced to close its mountain. For many years, the disciples dared not take a step outside the Clear Sky Sect."

"At this time, Tang Hao was hiding like a rat, spending his days drinking in a small mountain village, and had no courage or ambition to avenge you."

"It wasn't until I learned that my 'son' possessed twin martial souls that I regained my spirits."

Su Cheng stared intently into Ah Yin's eyes.

The strange color in her eyes made her hesitant to look directly at it.

"Cowards will always seek refuge."

"The so-called 'courage' that Tang Hao showed before was just because he ignorantly overestimated his own strength."

"When he realized he was powerless, he could no longer clench his fist!"
