Martial Soul Awakening
The Six Powers consisted of Shave, Finger Pistol, Paper Art, Iron Body, Moonwalk, and Tempest Kick.
Apart from Iron Body, they were all extremely practical combat techniques.
After all, Iron Body increased defense by one hundred percent and confidence by ten thousand percent.
Once Iron Body was activated, even if Divine Departure came at you, you wouldn't dodge.
Its value in that regard went without saying.
"What a shame. My body is too weak to use them yet."
Qian Guxing appeared regretful, but he was secretly delighted.
The Six Powers he had obtained also came with an understanding of Life Return.
Every powerhouse in the One Piece world had a bottomless stomach.
The more they ate, the stronger their bodies became.
With Life Return and the help of Whale Rubber from now on, Qian Guxing even felt he could have a thousand-year first ring!
"The bronze chest gave me a Dragon Sinew Tiger Vigor Pill, and the silver chest gave me the Six Powers. I wonder what kind of surprise this gold chest will bring me?"
Qian Guxing went out of his way to wash his face before choosing to open the chest.
A system notification sounded.
[Gold chest opened. Congratulations, you have obtained: Dragon Elephant Prajna Art (modified cultivation version, body cultivation art)]
A flood of information poured into Qian Guxing's mind.
By the time he finished digesting all the information on the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, Qian Guxing was grinning so widely that his mouth nearly split.
In a cultivation world, this modified version of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art would barely allow one to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm.
But this was Douluo Continent.
The place was famously the sewer of the fantasy genre.
Even divine artifacts only weighed a hundred thousand jin.
But when the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art was cultivated to its peak, one could form the phantoms of a true dragon and a sacred elephant, reducing mountain ranges thousands of zhang high to dust with a mere gesture!
Qian Guxing felt that if he cultivated the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art to great mastery, he could even go to the Divine Realm and smash the place up.
The Dragon-Vigour Tiger-Vitality Pill, the Six Powers, the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and an unknown god-level Martial Soul had all come from Qian Renxue.
Living off her was just too sweet!
He would awaken his Martial Soul tomorrow, so Qian Guxing decided to strengthen himself some more. He swallowed the Dragon-Vigour Tiger-Vitality Pill in one gulp.
In an instant, searing pain swept through his body from his dantian.
The pill's immense medicinal power rampaged through Qian Guxing's body.
Sweat beaded on Qian Guxing's forehead as he sat cross-legged and used the medicinal power to cultivate the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art.
The horizon gradually turned the color of a fish's belly.
Only then did Qian Guxing slowly open his eyes. He stood up, and his joints immediately crackled like beans frying in a pan.
Sensing the formidable power in his body, Qian Guxing was quite satisfied. He had entered the first layer of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and his arms possessed a full thousand jin of strength!
With this physique and the Six Powers, Qian Guxing felt he could defeat the vast majority of Soul Grandmasters!
He might even be able to fight a Soul Elder!
And that was while Qian Guxing had yet to awaken his Martial Soul.
With a Martial Soul Evolution Card and a God-Level Second Martial Soul Lottery Card in hand, Qian Guxing wasn't the least bit worried about awakening a trash Martial Soul.
Qian Guxing left the woodshed, strolled over to the dining hall, and ate breakfast.
Grandma Director took Qian Guxing and the other children who had turned six to the awakening point where Spirit Hall conducted awakenings for ordinary people free of charge.
The square was packed with people.
Qian Guxing stood in line, and even though he did nothing, his heaven-defying charm still held the gaze of every girl within sight.
Douluo Continent didn't have WeChat. Otherwise, girls would have been lining up in front of Qian Guxing to ask for his contact.
"Young mistress, Qian Guxing's background has been verified. His parents were ordinary farmers who died when Fallen Soul Masters massacred their village.
"Qian Guxing's parents hid him in a cellar, and he escaped the disaster. A Spirit Hall Soul Master later found him, brought him back to Spirit City, and left him in the orphanage's care."
Qian Renxue stood in a high place. Even from hundreds of meters away, her gaze remained fixed on Qian Guxing.
The information showed that Qian Guxing hadn't deliberately approached her.
In that case, he was a gift the Angel God had sent her.
Qian Renxue narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and thought to herself:
Let's name our first child Qian Guxue.
[Ding! Qian Renxue's romantic affection has reached 60 points. You have obtained a bronze chest!]
"What did I do?"
Qian Guxing looked utterly bewildered.
He hadn't done anything, so why had Qian Renxue's affection suddenly increased?
And it was romantic affection, at that.
Come on.
He was only six?!
For something like this, there was no need for words-just hook her up to ultra-high voltage and electrocute her to death!
"System, open the chest."
Say what he would, Qian Guxing wasn't about to turn down an easy meal delivered right to his mouth.
[Bronze chest opened. You have obtained: Super Lucky Card (after use, you will have unlimited luck for thirty seconds.)]
Qian Guxing's eyes widened, and he nearly couldn't resist cursing.
He had thought a bronze chest wouldn't yield anything good.
It was purely better than nothing.
But Qian Guxing hadn't expected to draw a heaven-defying item like a lucky card.
Thirty seconds of unlimited luck seemed short.
But as long as it was used in the right place, its value would be immeasurable.
Martial Soul Awakening, for example.
Or the God-Level Second Martial Soul Lottery Card.
"I declare that, starting today, Qian Renxue is my number-one big-sister benefactor!"
Qian Guxing was elated and wished he could awaken his Martial Soul immediately.
But there were at least a hundred people ahead of him in line.
He would probably have to wait until the afternoon.
As Qian Guxing was bored out of his mind, a bishop suddenly walked up to him with a respectful bearing.
"Hello, little one. I find you quite pleasing to the eye. As a bishop, I have the right to priority awakening. You don't need to wait in line; I'll just take you to the front for your awakening."
Qian Guxing blinked. Pleasing to the eye, my ass. Even his toes could tell him that Qian Renxue had arranged this.
Under the envious gazes of the other children, Qian Guxing went straight to the awakening platform.
The bishop in charge of the awakening was momentarily dazzled by Qian Guxing's looks, but she quickly recovered and spoke.
"Little one, close your eyes and quietly feel the power of your Martial Soul."
The instant her voice fell,
the bishop injected Soul Power into the Awakening Stone.
Qian Guxing could clearly sense a power about to break out of its shell and fully take shape.
At that moment, Qian Guxing issued a command to the system as quickly as he could think:
"System, use the Super Lucky Card and the God-Level Second Martial Soul Lottery Card! At the same time, use the Martial Soul Evolution Card on my First Martial Soul!"
He was going all in!
[Ding! Super Lucky Card used successfully!] [Ding! Drawing a god-level Second Martial Soul!] [Ding! Martial Soul Evolution Card used successfully. Beginning evolution of the First Martial Soul!]
Qian Guxing was gambling. As everyone knew, Martial Souls on Douluo Continent could mutate.
A beneficial mutation would make everyone happy.
As for a harmful mutation, Yu Xiaogang was the result.
Now, Qian Guxing had used the Super Lucky Card to raise his luck without limit, then used the Martial Soul Evolution Card before his First Martial Soul had taken shape.
With his extraordinarily high luck, he might produce an incredible Martial Soul!
Outside.
The faint golden light of the awakening array enveloped Qian Guxing's body.
The bishop frowned slightly. Under normal circumstances, his Martial Soul should have appeared by now.
She examined him carefully for a moment before noticing the jade-like glow emanating from his body.
"What a shame. It's a Trash Martial Soul."
The bishop sighed inwardly.
Body Martial Souls had yet to be developed in this era. Apart from Body Martial Souls like Spirit Eyes, which could still be used for reconnaissance, the others were basically considered equivalent to Trash Martial Souls.
Up in a distant tower, Qian Renxue didn't care in the slightest. She had her own pride; even if Qian Guxing were an ordinary person without Soul Power, she could keep him safe and sound for his entire life!
But just when everyone thought Qian Guxing had awakened a Trash Martial Soul,
the heavens and earth suddenly changed color!
