Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Clay, the Creator of All Things

"A storage soul tool? The cheapest one of these costs tens of thousands of gold soul coins." Taking the ring, Lu Yan looked at Lu Da Guan with a shocked expression.

"Dad, was our family really this rich?" Lu Yan's eyes lit up.

Soul power, combined with mental power, probed into the soul tool, and a three-cubic-meter empty space immediately appeared in Lu Yan's mind.

"What are you thinking about!" Lu Daguan flicked Lu Yan on the forehead and casually said, "This is a gift from my older sister, so you should cherish it."

"Sister?" Lu Yan immediately thought of the conversation between the two in the carriage and looked at Lu Daguan with suspicion.

Then, he was urged to put away his "external martial spirit" and was kicked out of the study.

Meanwhile, Lu Daguan, who was alone in his study, kept recalling the conversation between the two.

One moment it's Lu Yan's clay-shaping ability, the next it's the powerful potential of his "external martial soul," and then it's the speed at which his son cultivates.

Finally, he recalled the "Soul Power Meditation Method" and "Advanced Martial Soul Mimicry Resonance State" that his son had taught him.

"Perhaps thanks to Xiao Liu, I can become a Soul Master in this lifetime!"

Lu Daguan couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

"Hahaha, I knew Xiao Liu was smart from a young age!"

"I never expected that I would achieve such success in just one year since I awakened my martial soul!"

"I never imagined that my Lu family, which doesn't even have a single Soul Master, would possess such a foundation to serve as a Soul Master family for generations to come!"

"My son has the potential to become a Great Soul Master, no, my son has the potential to become a Soul Venerable!"

After venting his emotions, Lu Daguan wiped his eyes and summoned his clay martial soul.

A blurry female portrait gradually became clearer in his hand.

Chapter 10 Some things are untouchable; the top-ranked Dugu Yan must be recruited.

After leaving the study, Lu Yan first went to the dining room to find some food to fill his stomach.

As soon as I finished eating and walked into the courtyard, I saw my second sister, Lu Wanqing, squatting in the corner of the pavilion with my younger sister, Lu Ling, and frantically squeezing and rubbing a big white cat.

Three-year-olds are always clumsy and careless. Seeing that the big white cat looked uncomfortable, the second sister, Lu Wanqing, finally spoke up.

"Little crybaby, be gentle, you're hurting it."

"I'm not a crybaby!" Lu Ling pressed one hand on the big white cat's head, turned her head and seriously corrected her second sister, her childish voice sounding a little muffled as if it were full of saliva.

After saying that, Xiao Luling actually swallowed.

That is, taking advantage of the moment when Xiao Luling swallowed her water.

The big white cat leaped away and escaped from Xiao Luling's clutches.

"Brother, the big cat ran away! Please help me catch it!" Little Lu Ling cried out anxiously as she saw the big white cat running towards Lu Yan's side.

"Now you know how to call me brother?" Lu Yan rolled his eyes at his little sister, who seemed a bit dim-witted but occasionally had a flash of inspiration.

Then, he instinctively flicked his right hand, and several thick lines of clay shot towards the fleeing white cat.

It wasn't until the big white cat was tied up tightly and its entire body was wrapped in clay that Lu Yan realized what was happening.

He seems to be becoming increasingly reliant on manipulating clay; many of his actions are not subconscious physical movements, but rather the manipulation of clay.

It's hard to say whether this habit is good or bad, but manipulating clay has certainly brought him a lot of convenience in his life.

The big white cat was wrapped in Lu Yan's clay, meowing and twisting as it struggled, seemingly about to break free of his control.

Seeing this, Lu Yan was speechless; his "useless martial soul" was indeed a bit useless.

However, while I can't control people, I can control a big white cat.

With a thought, Lu Yan mobilized more of his soul power, instantly wrapping the big white cat up completely, leaving only its head exposed.

Seeing the white cat wrapped in clay, Lu Yan felt a strong sense of déjà vu.

It seems that he can unleash a "sandstorm funeral" simply by reaching out and grabbing the big white cat.

It shouldn't be called a clay funeral; you can simply send someone to be "buried in peace."

Lu Yan did have the ability, but he wasn't that ruthless. He even controlled the force of the clay wrapping, afraid of hurting the big white cat.

After all, this big white cat was raised by my family from a kitten.

Lu Yan simply controlled the clay threads to pull the big white cat to his side, and then he hugged it tightly.

Without the clay covering, and held in Lu Yan's arms, the big white cat stopped struggling, as if it had lost its soul.

Do whatever you want with the cat, it's given up.

"Wow, brother, you're amazing!" Having witnessed Lu Yan's incredible skills firsthand, little Lu Ling no longer cared about the cat. Instead, she looked at Lu Yan with her big, bright eyes, full of admiration.

"Wow, my sixth brother is amazing!" Lu Wanqing also gave Lu Yan a thumbs up, her eyes filled with undisguised surprise.

At the same time, there is a hidden regret, because her martial soul is Blue Silver Grass and she does not have soul power.

"Brother, can I be as amazing as you in the future?" Little Lu Ling hugged Lu Yan's leg and looked up at him to ask.

“It’s definitely possible.” Lu Yan took out one hand, rubbed his little sister’s head, and placed the big white cat on the ground in front of Lu Ling.

"Here, take this cat." Then, Lu Yan scratched the big white cat's chin and gently stroked it a few times.

"You need to be gentle, otherwise it will feel uncomfortable." After demonstrating for Xiao Luling, Lu Yan got up and sat down on a stool with his second sister.

Lu Ling was once again drawn to the big white cat and couldn't care less about anything else.

However, at this moment, Lu Hongye, the third brother who had been sitting silently to the side, spoke up.

"Sixth brother, if you tell your little sister this, she will be very sad if she doesn't awaken her soul power in the future."

Lu Hongye's words seemed to be about his younger sister, but weren't they also about himself? He, too, hadn't awakened his soul power.

Lu Wanqing, who was standing to the side, also dimmed her eyes.

She thought of her own martial soul awakening, but she hadn't awakened innate soul power. Her father looked disappointed, but forced a smile to comfort her.

"Ugh!"

Lu Yan noticed the subtle tension between his second sister and third brother. He sighed silently to himself, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak.

Just then, Lu Hongye's voice came again.

"Sixth Brother, have you ever heard of a way for ordinary people to acquire soul power later in life?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yan was startled, a chill ran down his spine, and he couldn't help but stare at Lu Hongye's handsome face, which was no less youthful than his own.

"Third Brother, have you heard any rumors?" Lu Yan asked Lu Hongye solemnly.

Lu Yan didn't know the specific methods by which ordinary people could acquire soul power later in life.

But he knew that such methods were mostly unorthodox and devious, and he had seen related records in the library.

Ordinary people acquiring soul power through acquired methods is strictly prohibited by the Spirit Hall, and those who violate this order will be relentlessly hunted down by the Spirit Hall.

Having learned about the original work and the general development of the subsequent parts, the first thought that popped into Lu Yan's mind was "evil soul master".

However, at this stage, there is no term for "evil soul master" yet; they should be called "fallen soul masters."

"What rumors? No, there aren't any." Lu Hongye shook his head, surprised by Lu Yan's strong reaction.

"It was just a sudden whim of mine."

Lu Yan carefully observed Lu Hongye's expression for a moment, and seeing that he was not faking it, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Third brother, let me tell you something, and second sister, you should listen too." Lu Yan said, seeing that the two were ready to listen, before he spoke.

"I have seen relevant records in the library. Ordinary people do have ways to acquire soul power later in life."

"But this method is unacceptable; it's all heretical and crooked, and touching it will lead to certain death."

"Not only will they be hunted down by the Spirit Hall, but they will also harm themselves and others, and bring disaster to their families."

"Those who become Soul Masters through this method will eventually descend into madness and depravity, and the first to suffer are usually their closest relatives."

"This method is utterly destructive! In the literal sense." At this point, Lu Yan's voice turned sinister, startling Lu Wanqing and Lu Hongye.

In fact, Lu Yan didn't know for sure whether they would eat people, but he had seen this kind of setting in some fan works, so he used it to scare the two of them.

But his statement wasn't entirely bluffing.

The original work clearly states that those people in the Killing City drink human blood.

Thinking about this, Lu Yan found it utterly ridiculous.

Those who inherit divine positions must undergo divine trials, which require drinking human blood.

Shouldn't those who have drunk human blood be hanged from streetlights?

Can it even become a god? What kind of evil god is this Asura God?

In a previous life, these so-called gods would have been subjected to the destruction of mountains and temples.

Unfortunately, in this life, the gods are high above.

"Sixth brother, is it really that scary?" Second sister Lu Wanqing was startled and grabbed Lu Yan's arm.

Third Brother Lu Hongye's face was also somewhat pale.

"Hmm." Lu Yan nodded seriously, then gave a reminder.

"Second sister, third brother, if you ever hear anyone talking to you about gaining soul power the day after tomorrow, be sure to get away as soon as possible, and then without hesitation, secretly report it to the Spirit Hall afterwards."

“Okay, we understand.” The two nodded in unison.

"That's good. There are some things you can't touch, because once you do, there's no turning back," Lu Yan emphasized again.

Then, before the two could react, he changed his tone and broke the heavy atmosphere.

"However, next year when I become a Soul Master, I will travel around to see if there are any rare and precious materials that can help ordinary people obtain Soul Power."

"This is probably the only way that is not heretical and could allow ordinary people to safely obtain soul power."

The rare and precious materials Lu Yan was referring to were naturally immortal herbs, though he couldn't say it explicitly.

In fact, Lu Yan felt that the Lesser Heavenly Cycle Soul Power Cultivation Method might, with practice, have a low probability of allowing ordinary people to gain soul power.

However, this cannot be transmitted at the moment, as that would be a death sentence.

As for the immortal herb, there's nothing to fear, because if Lu Yan were to obtain the immortal herb, it would undoubtedly be with Dugu Bo as his backer.
