Chapter 14 Mission: Capture Hulena! 100,000-Year Exclusive Soul Ring Reward??_1

Luo Yu was controlling the newly awakened Dragon God Martial Soul.

He could feel the surrounding elements jubilantly cheering as they eagerly rushed towards his body, enhancing his cultivation level autonomously, without the need for deliberate practice.

Looking down and clasping his fingers together, he experienced an unreal sensation, his skin shimmered golden, and his vital energy was surging. He could clearly sense the explosive power raging within him.

It was as if he had the illusion that he could break apart space with sheer physical strength alone.

"Young friend, I don't know where your family is, but would you mind inviting them out for a discussion?"

Luo Yu was now encircled by the guest elders of Martial Soul Hall, and the one speaking with a silly smile at this moment was an old man wearing a grey robe, with the youthful face of a child and hair as white as a crane.

"Old thing, get out of the way, I came out here before you!" The elder in silver clothing pulled him aside and leaned towards Luo Yu: "Young brother, are you interested in finding a master?"

Another elder popped out from the side and said righteously:

"Don't be shameless, you two. Young friend, don't listen to them. I'm level 96, one of the three guest elders of Martial Soul Hall, with a White Armored Holy Dragon Martial Soul, which belongs to the same category as your dragon-class Martial Soul, fitting to guide you."

"Tsk! Are you blind, or are we? Who can't see that when compared to this young brother's Martial Soul, your White Armored Holy Dragon might as well be a big white armored insect? What do you even have to brag about?"

The elders and deacons in the distance were full of astonishment.

Could you all please remember your status, where is your aloof and cool demeanor?

Are these really the same group of unfathomable guest elders we know, who never indulge in frivolous conversation?

How come they are now acting like common market folk, cursing in the streets without any decency, tearing off their masks and bickering openly?

However, when everyone saw the bits of Awakening Stone scattered all over the ground, and Luo Yu there radiating divine light, they felt that everything made sense and wasn't so bizarre anymore.

Compared with others, isn't this guy a bit too terrifying?

How many years has it been? Throughout the history of Martial Soul Hall, there has never been a soul awakening that caused such a commotion, right?

A normal awakening with golden light reaching thirty feet would directly qualify one to be cultivated as a Saint Heir or goddess.

My goodness...

This young man directly released a thousand feet of golden light...

What kind of quality does this Martial Soul possess? And to what heights will he ascend in the future?

Luo Yu was immersing himself in the experience of his body's changes, unconcerned with anything else.

He felt slightly relieved that his body, birthed by the Tribulation-Crossing Golden Lotus, was an Immaculate Divine Body, or else he might not have been able to endure the Martial Soul awakening process.

The Dragon God Martial Soul was not something a mortal could awaken.

If it were someone else, they might have exploded and died at the beginning of the awakening.

However, if there wasn't enough of the Awakening Stone, the Dragon God Martial Soul might not even have been triggered.

Lucky for him, the Martial Soul Hall was wealthy enough to bestow sufficient Awakening Stones.

Coming here today was the right choice.

"Make way!"

An imposing elder stepped forward, his grey robe effortlessly exuded authority, and the noise from the guest elders quickly subsided into a respectful silence.

He walked up to Luo Yu and nodded with satisfaction.

"You're very good."

"I am Qian Daoliu, a God Level Martial Soul Owner with Level 99 Limit Cultivation. Would you like to take me as your master?"

Luo Yu scratched his head, looking troubled.

"If you have any difficulties, speak freely. I will fulfill your wishes," Qian Daoliu appeared cool yet eager, his palms sweating with excitement, a blessing for Martial Soul Hall.

Luo Yu withdrew his Dragon God Martial Soul, and the owners of other dragon-class Martial Souls like Wang Teng immediately heaved a sigh of relief, struggling to their feet but with legs still weak, looking over in shock.

"Uh, do you still have any Awakening Stones?" Luo Yu asked shyly.

"What do you mean?" Qian Daoliu was taken aback.

"Isn't your awakening complete? What do you need Awakening Stones for?" The others were also puzzled, scratching their heads in confusion.

"I feel like... I haven't finished awakening yet..." Luo Yu blinked.

"Hmm?"

Qian Daoliu let out a light exclamation, then seemed to come to a realization, his body bursting with excitement.

"Not finished awakening?"

Those paying attention to this scene repeated the phrase to themselves, their expressions changing dramatically and eyes staring blankly at Luo Yu.

"Heaven help us... This guy couldn't possibly have Twin Martial Souls, could he?"

"No way, his Martial Soul is already so abnormal, could he still be hiding another one?"

"Is it for real?" Saintess Hu Liena clenched the hem of her dress tightly.

Gu Yuena, hidden in her own space, was also in shock.

As for Bi Bidong, it goes without saying, her heart and eyes filled only with her beloved.

Hearing the discussions around him and seeing that Luo Yu showed no signs of denial, Qian Daoliu's breathing grew rapid.

He turned his head and shouted urgently at those around him,

"Quick! Get all the Awakening Stones from the temple stores for me! Hurry up!!!"

...

Above the fragments of the plaza, a huge six-pointed star formation was set up once again, composed of over a thousand Awakening Stones.

Everyone was dispersed by Qian Daoliu to the sidelines, leaving only Luo Yu inside to complete the awakening.

Expectant, surprised, and admiring gazes converged on Luo Yu.

The formation was activated by Bi Bidong, and everyone awaited an even more spectacular scene.

However, after ten breaths, then thirty, there was still no movement from Luo Yu.

Someone exhaled softly and relaxed their body.

"Phew! That scared me to death. I knew this guy couldn't possibly have twin Martial Souls, otherwise how could anyone else live?"

Someone next to them rolled their eyes and said, "Stop dreaming. Even if he only has a single Martial Soul, you still wouldn't stand a chance."

"But twin Martial Souls seem highly unlikely. That would be too monstrous."

Qian Daoliu's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, but he didn't say much. Luo Yu's talent was already something he had rarely seen in his life, and there was nothing to regret.

He flashed to Luo Yu's side within the formation and said with a comforting smile, "Young friend, with your talent, even with a single Martial Soul as my disciple, you can be invincible in the world..."

Luo Yu ignored him, with his eyes tightly closed.

Being ignored like this, a look of anger appeared on Qian Daoliu's face.

"Clang!"

There was no golden light or movement of grass and trees in the plaza, yet a sonorous sound of a sword rang out from nowhere, penetrating the ears of everyone present, leaving no escape.

Immediately afterward, the thousands of Awakening Stones scattered across the ground turned into powder simultaneously, in a bizarre instance.

"Whoosh!"

A breeze passed by, and everyone turned their shocked gazes back.

At some point, Luo Yu had already opened his eyes, and in front of him, a longsword was floating.

The sword was four feet and three inches long, made neither of iron nor gold but seemingly of jade, and was transparent like amber throughout.

It looked ancient and unusual with no noticeable aura, appearing quite ordinary.

But no one was a fool—bizarre often meant absolute power. Hadn't they seen those thousands of Awakening Stones just disappear...

Is this the Nine Heavens Execution Sword???

The True Universal Instrument Martial Soul?

Others might not see it, but that doesn't mean Luo Yu can't feel it himself.

It seemed like the sword indeed contained no energy; it was just that the material seemed extraordinary.

Luo Yu couldn't help but recall the System's mind-blowing introduction. If it's only at this level, it wouldn't be impressive at all.

[Ding! The System has detected the host's awakening of the Martial Soul!!]

[Mission release: Capture Saintess Hu Liena]

[Mission reward: Exclusive Soul Ring for the Nine Heavens Execution Sword, first Soul Ring of a hundred thousand years]

Exclusive Soul Ring? What does that mean? Luo Yu was confused for a moment.

The electronic voice sounded again.

[System explanation: Nine Heavens Execution Sword, one turn, one world. The host cannot obtain a Soul Ring on his own; he must complete tasks to earn exclusive Soul Rings. Only with the exclusive Soul Rings can the true might of the sword spirit be unleashed.]

Huh?

So, does that mean even with enough Soul Power, going out to kill soul beasts isn't enough, and I have to complete tasks?

However, this exclusive Soul Ring seems to be designed for the Execution Sword. Could it have some special function?

After all, the introduction can't be lying, can it?

And a first Soul Ring that's a hundred thousand years? That seems pretty good too.

The Execution Sword felt connected to Luo Yu's bloodline; however, it felt hollow, as if something was missing.

While he was so calm, everyone else had already exploded into commotion.

"Twin Martial Souls!"

"He really does have Twin Martial Souls, and the quality of these two Martial Souls seems a bit... astonishing!"

Compared to the sighs and exclamations of others, Hu Liena's soft body couldn't help shivering.

Her complexion flushed, her small hands covered her face, not daring to look towards Luo Yu.

"It's all over... everything's over."

She tried to open her mouth to speak but the words caught in her throat, unable to come out.

"It's such a sin! How can one even utter it."

"I hope he has forgotten about it..."
