Douluo's Holy Lord at the Start

Chapter 6: Pure Yang Sword

Ning Fengzhi and Jian Chenxin were too shocked to speak.

Although they did not personally experience Gu Xuan's strength, they could feel the terrifying damage just from his imposing aura.

A young boy who had just awakened his martial soul was able to unleash an attack comparable to that of a Soul Master.

Just how terrifying must a martial soul be to possess this quality?

"Congratulations, Uncle Gu! With such extraordinary talent, Xiao Xuan is destined for greatness and will surely be granted a title in the future."

Ning Fengzhi seized the opportunity to climb the social ladder and didn't hesitate to flatter Gu Rong.

"Haha, it's nothing, just average. If Xiao Xuan wants to grow in the future, he'll still need the sect's guidance!"

Overjoyed, Gu Rong temporarily forgot about the unpleasantness from before.

"You have good talent; keep practicing diligently."

Chen Xin came to Gu Xuan and handed him a beautifully designed wristband.

A green gemstone is set into the bright silver wristband.

"Xiao Xuan, keep it. This is one of the old swordsman's collections. It's a storage soul tool with a volume of 300 cubic meters, and it can even store living things. I tried to snatch it back then, but I couldn't."

Gu Rong grabbed it and stuffed it into Gu Xuan's arms, saying happily.

"Grandpa, this isn't something to be proud of, there's no need to explain further."

Gu Xuan took the document, made a few sarcastic remarks about Gu Rong, and then solemnly bowed to Chen Xin.

"Thank you, Grandpa Sword, for bestowing this treasure upon me. I will definitely cultivate diligently."

Although he accepted the gift, it doesn't mean he has much affection for Chen Xin. Just the fact that he protected Ning Rongrong makes the conflict between them difficult to resolve.

However, one cannot be ungrateful when others give them something good; one must still observe proper etiquette.

But do you want too much intimacy?

That is absolutely impossible.

"Um!"

Chen Xin nodded gently, patted Gu Xuan's head, and stepped aside.

He didn't find anything strange about it, after all, Gu Xuan's previous persona was one of laissez-faire governance.

"I didn't expect you to be so talented, Xiao Xuan. But since Uncle Jian has already given you a storage soul tool, I can't be stingy. Take this Dragon Blood Fruit. Although your martial soul is a stone dragon, this Dragon Blood Fruit contains mostly dragon energy. It might be able to restore some of the power of your martial soul."

Ning Fengzhi handed a red fruit with faint golden dragon patterns to Gu Xuan. Gu Xuan could sense a very faint dragon aura from the fruit.

In his knowledge, the Dragon Blood Fruit is a fruit that can only be born in places irrigated by the blood of a true dragon, making it a rare and precious treasure for sub-dragon species.

This held a fatal attraction for the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family.

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan would probably be willing to offer a soul bone in exchange for just this one Dragon Blood Fruit.

It is indeed a good treasure, but it is not of much use to Gu Xuan.

"Thank you, Uncle Ning."

Gu Xuan did not refuse, but accepted it with both hands and bowed to thank him.

"No need to be so polite, we're all family, there's no need to be so formal."

Ning Fengzhi laughed and patted Gu Xuan on the shoulder.

"Uncle Ning, Grandpa Jian, Grandpa, if you have something to say, please continue chatting. I'm going back now. My soul power is quite depleted, and I also need to familiarize myself with the meditation technique to prepare for absorbing a soul ring."

Gu Xuan said to Ning Fengzhi and the others.

She just didn't want to give Ning Fengzhi a chance to get along with Ning Rongrong.

Anyway, Ning Rongrong wouldn't apologize to him seriously, and he could never truly forgive her. Rather than pretending to cater to Ning Fengzhi, it would be better to just leave.

Watching Gu Xuan bow and leave, Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered, but in the end, he could only sigh.

Ning Rongrong, hiding behind Chen Xin, watched Gu Xuan gradually disappear into the distance, her large eyes flashing with an uncertain light.

Upon returning to his residence, Gu Xuan immediately sat cross-legged to begin his first meditation practice to restore his soul power.

Because he had not awakened his martial soul before, he had never experienced what it felt like to have soul power in his body, so he was naturally unable to meditate effectively.

If you don't know how to meditate when absorbing a spirit ring, then you're truly doomed.

In the Douluo Continent, the cultivation of Soul Masters has evolved to the point where it is no longer a passive absorption of Soul Power.

Any powerful sect has a meditation method similar to a cultivation technique.

These meditation methods also contain concepts similar to meridians, which were gradually explored and improved upon by countless Soul Masters through numerous improvements and innovations.

However, it is still inferior to orthodox cultivation methods.

However, Gu Xuan did not think that having a cultivation technique was any good.

Tang San must possess the Mysterious Heaven Skill, right?

However, in terms of soul power cultivation, his cultivation speed is only comparable to that of a soul master with innate full soul power.

Therefore, it has been proven that a Soul Master with innate full Soul Power is not much weaker than a Soul Master with cultivation techniques.

Cultivation techniques can only raise the lower limit of a Soul Master's cultivation, not the upper limit. The fastest cultivation speed in Douluo Continent is only reaching the innate full Soul Power.

Any faster and it would be due to a stroke of good fortune.

Although it was only his first time practicing meditation, Gu Xuan's progress was very smooth.

Gu Xuan continuously absorbed the soul power between heaven and earth into his body. Then, following the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's soul power circulation method, he circulated it within his body before storing it in his dantian.

With his innate talent for full soul power and the supreme martial soul master, Gu Xuan's cultivation speed reached the limit in the Douluo Continent.

The soul power between heaven and earth was continuously absorbed into Gu Xuan's body and then integrated into his dantian to replenish the soul power he had consumed.

About ten minutes later, Gu Xuan finished replenishing his soul power, and his dantian was full of soul power again.

By this time, the space in the dantian where soul power was stored was almost full.

If you try to absorb soul power from the outside, most of it won't actually enter your dantian.

However, if you force it in, you can continuously improve the quality of your soul power.

The compressed soul power while waiting to absorb a soul ring will rebound and occupy new space, thus achieving the effect of leapfrog advancement.

However, it is generally not recommended to do this.

Doing so would waste a lot of time and soul energy, making it a losing proposition.

Furthermore, the efficiency of Soul Masters and Soul Warriors in absorbing Soul Power is vastly different. It's not impossible to suppress one's level and not break through, but no Soul Master would advocate it.

When you reach a bottleneck, you should immediately try to break through it to avoid wasting your talent.

"My first martial soul is the Holy Lord, so what about my second martial soul?"

Gu Xuan curiously raised his left hand.

When he awakened his martial soul, he did not reveal his second martial soul because he was afraid that Ning Fengzhi would pester him relentlessly after learning about his true talent. Just the innate full soul power was enough to make him go against his will. If he had twin martial souls, wouldn't that drive Ning Fengzhi crazy?

Who knows what Ning Fengzhi will do to keep him by his side?

He'll be driven crazy by this!

As he pondered, an ordinary-looking longsword slowly emerged from Gu Xuan's left hand.

The sword hilt is engraved with the two characters "Chunyang".
