Origin Wings and Great Dao Source Stone (Seeking Investment! Seeking Monthly Ticket! Seeking Recommendation Ticket!)

Origin Wings and Great Dao Source Stone (Seeking Investment! Seeking Monthly Ticket! Seeking Recommendation Ticket!) Jing Shaoyu's new home in Eastsea City was a three-story house with a courtyard. It was an official residence assigned to Jing Ziyuan by the Administrative Headquarters. Logically, as merely an office director, she should not have received housing of this standard—but who could blame her for having such a capable son?

This was an unspoken benefit for the families of public servants who possessed Innate Full Soul Power.

The new house was fully furnished and decorated, ready for immediate move-in. That very evening, Jing Shaoyu's family settled in.

Jing Shaoyu and Na'er each had their own room. Although Na'er had hoped to share a room with Jing Shaoyu, Jing Ziyuan firmly rejected her request. Still, Jing Ziyuan ultimately softened up and arranged Na'er's room right next to Jing Shaoyu's. It only took two steps to get from Na'er's room to his.

The two children's rooms were on the third floor, while Jing Ziyuan and Lin Xin's rooms were on the second. Lin Xin arrived in Eastsea City that night by Soul Guidance Train, bringing along the personal belongings of Jing Ziyuan, Jing Shaoyu, and Na'er.

The Aolai City orphanage had effectively been shut down for good.

That night, after bathing, Jing Shaoyu lay on the new bed in his new room in his new home, feeling rather emotional. Sure enough, this was a world that valued strength and talent. Every bit of kindness and preferential treatment he had received today was because of his Innate Full Soul Power talent. It was all an investment.

After putting an end to his wandering thoughts, he sat up, closed his eyes, and began to sense the changes within himself and the abilities he had awakened after fusing with his soul spirit and obtaining a Soul Ring.

After gaining his first Soul Ring, the most obvious change when his Origin Spirit Martial Soul possessed him was the pair of wings that appeared on his back. These immaculate white wings, which closely resembled angelic feathers, were called Origin Wings. They granted Jing Shaoyu the ability to fly, an unquestionably vital ability for him.

After all, aside from flight-type Soul Masters, other Soul Masters needed at least the strength of a Soul King to gain the ability to fly.

An additional pure white round jewel had appeared upon the Crown of Nature. This jewel was called the Great Dao Source Stone. In theory, there should have been ten of them, but limited by Jing Shaoyu's current strength, only one had awakened.

The first Great Dao Source Stone granted Jing Shaoyu one talent and one skill.

The talent was called Fire Monarch. It gave him ten percent immunity to fire elements, and the degree of immunity would increase as Jing Shaoyu's realm rose. This talent could be considered extremely important to the Origin Spirit Martial Soul.

The skill was called Fire Burst. Though the name sounded intimidating, it was actually just a Fireball spell. However, it seemed to be a growth-type skill that would strengthen as Jing Shaoyu's realm improved, making its future promising.

At the same time, Fire Burst was one of the Origin Spirit Martial Soul's few offensive abilities, making up for its lack of offensive power. A cause for celebration, indeed.

So, on the surface, Jing Shaoyu had only one Soul Ring and one soul skill. In truth, he had three Soul Rings and three soul skills. The Fire Monarch talent could also be regarded as a passive soul skill.

Yet this was not what excited Jing Shaoyu the most. What truly thrilled him was his speculation.

There were ten Great Dao Source Stones in total. Since the first one could provide him with a fire-element talent and skill, could the remaining nine provide talents and skills related to other elements? If he became a Titled Douluo, he should theoretically awaken nine Great Dao Source Stones. Would those nine stones allow him to possess immunity to nine different elements at once? Jing Shaoyu was incredibly excited. As a symbol of nature, the Origin Spirit Martial Soul could not possibly possess only simple support and healing abilities! This was the level a nature Martial Soul ought to reach! And there was more than one thing making Jing Shaoyu happy—his soul spirit, the Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird, had awakened.

It turned out that after signing the Soul Spirit Contract with Jing Shaoyu, the Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird had fallen into slumber. Influenced by the Origin Spirit Martial Soul, both its bloodline and life level had undergone immense improvement, so it needed to sleep in order to digest those changes.

It was common knowledge in the Soul Master world that the Soul Rings of high-level soul beasts could reshape low-quality Martial Souls, allowing weak Martial Souls to gradually evolve.

The same applied between soul spirits and Soul Masters. Normally, the soul spirit would drive the Martial Soul's evolution. But in Jing Shaoyu's case, it was the reverse. His Martial Soul was of such high quality that the Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird had instead been enhanced, its bloodline evolving.

Naturally, this was a good thing for Jing Shaoyu. After all, in the current Soul Master world, soul spirits were also an important measure of a Soul Master's strength.

The awakened Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird had changed noticeably. Its originally vermilion feathers had become a purer red, each one translucent like a gemstone. A diamond-shaped white gem had appeared on its hawk-like head. The gem resembled an embryo, as though something were being nurtured beneath it.

Its body had shrunk considerably, becoming only as large as Jing Shaoyu's palm. However, this was only temporary, a non-combat state. In battle, it would naturally grow larger.

"From now on, you'll be called Red Jade!" Jing Shaoyu said with a smile, raising the Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird standing on his palm before his eyes.

"Chirp, chirp!" Hearing Jing Shaoyu's words, the Scarlet Jade Spirit Bird let out several delighted cries. It hopped from his hand to his shoulder, then from his shoulder back to his palm, looking extremely happy.

"Brother!"

Just as Jing Shaoyu was playing with his soul spirit, Red Jade, Na'er pushed open the door and ran inside. As if she had a built-in tracking device, the little girl immediately threw herself into Jing Shaoyu's arms. Her damp hair rubbed against his clothes, soaking the front of his chest.

Jing Shaoyu truly felt both happy and helpless. He was happy because Na'er was so attached to him, but helpless because she was a little too attached to him. "Ah!" Nestled in Jing Shaoyu's arms, Na'er let out a startled cry. In a sweet voice, she said, "What a cute little bird! Brother, is this your soul spirit?"

"That's right. I call it Red Jade." Jing Shaoyu raised his hand as he spoke, and Red Jade obediently landed on it.

"Chirp, chirp!" Red Jade gave a cheerful call.

"Even its voice sounds so nice!" Na'er's eyes lit up, her little face filled with affection. "I want a cute little bird like this too!"

"You will, next year..." Jing Shaoyu said instinctively, but he immediately fell silent as he remembered something.

"Hm?" Na'er looked at Jing Shaoyu in confusion. "Brother, why did you suddenly stop talking?"

"Nothing!" Jing Shaoyu immediately covered it up with a smile. "I mean, once Na'er awakens her Martial Soul next year, you'll have a chance to get an equally cute soul spirit!"

"Hehe, I definitely will." At that moment, Na'er's thoughts were entirely focused on Red Jade. Naturally, she did not notice the trace of unease hidden in Jing Shaoyu's expression, and she happily followed along with his words.

"Mhm!" Jing Shaoyu hurriedly nodded, muddling his way past the matter.

Na'er stayed in Jing Shaoyu's room for a long time before Jing Ziyuan reluctantly dragged her out. Jing Shaoyu could only watch the scene apologetically.

He steadied his mind, sat cross-legged, and began cultivating. After breaking through to the Soul Master realm, Jing Shaoyu found that his senses had become more attuned to the world's energy. Naturally, his cultivation speed had increased as well.

In just a few breaths, Jing Shaoyu entered a meditative state.

Meanwhile, within a luxurious estate in Eastsea City, Ouyang Jian silently flipped through the documents in his hand. A young girl with long blue hair walked toward him with cheerful steps. She looked to be only around ten years old, but she was exceptionally pretty, with delicate features and large, bright eyes.

"Grandpa, why are you still working so late?" The girl plopped down beside Ouyang Jian and called out sweetly.

"Oh! Zixin, why aren't you resting yet?" Seeing the girl, Ouyang Jian revealed a kind smile and called her by name. This little girl was his granddaughter, Ouyang Zixin.

"I asked you first!" Ouyang Zixin said, planting her hands on her hips.

"Oh, oh, right, that's how it is. Hahaha." Ouyang Jian immediately laughed awkwardly. "Look at me, I've been so busy that I'm muddled!"

"Hmph! Grandpa is always like this!" Ouyang Zixin pouted unhappily.

"Yes, yes, yes, Grandpa was wrong. Grandpa won't do this again next time!" Ouyang Jian immediately admitted his mistake with a placating smile.

"Really?" Ouyang Zixin wore an unconvinced expression as she complained, "Grandpa, you say that every time, but next time you still bring your work home without a second thought!"

"Ahahaha, this time is different, this time is different!" Ouyang Jian quickly explained. "Let me tell you, Zixin, Eastsea City has produced someone with Innate Full Soul Power this year!"

"I know. Isn't it just Xiao Yan?" Ouyang Zixin said indifferently, as though she had known all along.

"It's not Xiao Yan," Ouyang Jian said, shaking his head. "It's an orphan named Jing Shaoyu. His martial soul is also the extremely rare Healing Type!"

"Really?" Ouyang Zixin was somewhat surprised. As far as she knew, weren't those with Innate Full Soul Power all children from Soul Master families? How could an orphan awaken Innate Full Soul Power?

"Of course it's true!" Ouyang Jian declared solemnly. "It's a pity you've already graduated from Xuan Kong Academy, or you should've been able to meet him tomorrow! But it's fine—when there's a chance, Grandpa will take you to meet him. He's a boy so handsome he's practically monstrous!"

"Handsome? Could he possibly be more handsome than Xiao Yu Ge?" Ouyang Zixin asked.

"No, no. That Xu Family Boy is completely incomparable to Jing Shaoyu!" Ouyang Jian said.

"Tch! I don't believe it." Ouyang Zixin curled her lips.
