Second Martial Soul: Endless Godslaying Spear (Seeking Recommendation Tickets! Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
Na'er was terrified by the vines that had suddenly appeared and bound her, and she cried out to Jing Shaoyu for help.
However, when Na'er looked to Jing Shaoyu for help, she found not a trace of worry on his face, only a mischievous smirk. She understood at once, and her tears turned to laughter. But then the little girl grew angry and shouted at Jing Shaoyu, "Brother, you big bully! Let Na'er down right now, or Na'er will never speak to you again!"
As she spoke, the little girl turned her head away, leaving only her profile facing Jing Shaoyu.
"Na'er really won't speak to Brother anymore?" Jing Shaoyu walked over, wrapped his arms around the vine-bound Na'er, and said with a smile, "Then Brother will have to punish Na'er."
As he spoke, Jing Shaoyu controlled the vines and suspended Na'er halfway in the air. Then he moved behind her, took off her shoes, and looked at the little girl's fair, tender soles with a wicked grin.
"Brother, no..." Na'er seemed to realize what Jing Shaoyu intended to do and immediately surrendered. She cried pitifully, "Na'er isn't angry anymore. Don't punish Na'er!"
"No!" Jing Shaoyu firmly refused. He reached out and held Na'er's little foot, then plucked a soft young leaf from the vine and lightly brushed it over her sole.
"Ah~ no~ hahaha~ so, so itchy~ hahaha~ Brother~ Brother~ Na'er, Na'er was wrong~ let me go~ haha~ so itchy~ it's really so itchy~" Na'er immediately burst into uncontrollable laughter, begging for mercy even as she laughed. The soles of her feet were Na'er's most sensitive spot. Whenever she sulked at Jing Shaoyu, he would tickle her feet, and afterward, Na'er would become especially obedient.
This trick never failed.
Still, Jing Shaoyu did not go too far. Once Na'er begged for mercy, he let her off. Under his control, the vines retracted, and Na'er dropped from the air straight into Jing Shaoyu's arms.
"Let's see if you dare ignore me again!" Jing Shaoyu put away his Martial Soul, held Na'er in his arms, sat on the swing, and said with a smile.
"I won't! Na'er won't dare anymore!" Na'er lay obediently in Jing Shaoyu's arms, panting, her face wearing an expression that said she was being very good. "Brother," she said sweetly.
Plant Control—this was the innate talent the Crown of Nature bestowed upon the Origin Spirit, and as its name implied, it was the ability to control plants.
This was a talent with an extremely high ceiling. If developed to its limit, it might even be possible to control Plant Martial Soul beasts, or even Plant Martial Souls. By then, all Soul Masters with Plant Martial Souls would be at a disadvantage before Jing Shaoyu.
Of course, for the current Jing Shaoyu, making trees grow three or four vines to bind someone was already the limit of his abilities.
But Jing Shaoyu was not discouraged. After all, this was only the beginning. There was still a long road ahead.
As for the Origin Spirit Martial Soul's other abilities, they had yet to manifest due to the limits of his current strength. Still, Jing Shaoyu believed that the Origin Spirit Martial Soul was far from as simple as it appeared.
At dinner, Jing Ziyuan returned from outside.
"A Yu, tomorrow, we'll be going with the administrator to the East Sea City Spirit Pagoda to choose a Soul Spirit. Do you have any thoughts on the matter?" Jing Ziyuan asked Jing Shaoyu.
"Huh?" Jing Shaoyu froze and instinctively asked, "Why are we going to East Sea City?"
"It was the administrator's idea." A grateful smile appeared on Jing Ziyuan's face as she explained, "After learning that you have Innate Full Soul Power, he decided to promote me. That way, we'll be able to choose a higher-quality Soul Spirit for you.
"And he wants to take you to meet the East Sea City Lord. He said that the East Sea City Lord's Mansion has preferential policies for Soul Masters with Innate Full Soul Power. Apparently, the rewards under this policy are extremely generous."
"So that's how it is. I understand!" Jing Shaoyu nodded. This was only normal. Those with Innate Full Soul Power were not stones by the roadside. Any sensible ruler would choose to invest in someone with Innate Full Soul Power. Even if they could not recruit such a person, they could at least forge a good relationship and leave behind some goodwill.
"Then do you have any thoughts about what kind of Soul Spirit you want, A Yu?" Jing Ziyuan returned to her earlier question, asking with some concern, "The administrator said it's best to choose a Soul Spirit that matches the characteristics of your Martial Soul. Do you know your Martial Soul's characteristics? If you're not sure, we can have the administrator take a look tomorrow. He's a four-ring Soul Ancestor."
"I know!" Jing Shaoyu answered without hesitation. "My Martial Soul should be a healing-type Martial Soul."
"Mm. To avoid any accidents, we should still have the administrator take a look tomorrow," Jing Ziyuan said after a moment of thought.
"Sure." Jing Shaoyu understood Jing Ziyuan's concerns and did not refuse.
After dinner, Jing Shaoyu bathed by himself for the first time. To be honest, he felt rather fortunate. Luckily, Jing Ziyuan had deliberately been training his independence and no longer helped him bathe. Otherwise, now that he had awakened the memories of his previous life, he would have been mortified.
He stood naked in the bathroom, his expression solemn. As he silently called to it, a pitch-black spear, dark as the dead of night, appeared in his hand. Mysterious and eerie runes were engraved across its shaft. Its spearhead gleamed like a shooting star, its butt spike was like a Spike, and the entire weapon radiated a chilling killing intent.
The moment the spear appeared, a violent, destructive, bloodthirsty urge immediately rose within Jing Shaoyu. The urge drove his body to move slowly, and only when a cool current surged from his heart did he manage to suppress it.
Endless Godslaying Spear! The name of his second Martial Soul surfaced in Jing Shaoyu's memories. He immediately stared at the black spear in his hand with a gaze filled with both excitement and apprehension.
The Endless Godslaying Spear was a demonic weapon of chaos brimming with slaughter and destructive power. It represented nature's savagery and fury, possessing the terrifying might to destroy everything and shatter everything.
Only then did Jing Shaoyu understand the origins of his Origin Spirit Martial Soul and Endless Godslaying Spear Martial Soul.
It turned out that both were gifts nature on this planet had given him. As for why he had received nature's gifts, Jing Shaoyu did not understand either. Perhaps it was one of the benefits of being a transmigrator.
The Origin Spirit Martial Soul was a symbol of nature's compassion and gentleness, which was why its abilities leaned toward support and healing. The Endless Godslaying Spear, on the other hand, symbolized nature's savagery and coldness, which was why it leaned toward destruction and ruin, with immense offensive power.
"Phew~ Hahaha!" Jing Shaoyu put away the Endless Godslaying Spear, and the violent, terrifying aura in the bathroom immediately vanished. A delighted smile appeared on his face as he said, "Endless Godslaying Spear, one day, you will truly live up to your name!"
After bathing, Jing Shaoyu returned to his bedroom. A short while later, Jing Ziyuan entered the room.
"A Yu, you've already awakened your Martial Soul and gained Soul Power. Tonight, you can try cultivating through meditation," Jing Ziyuan said.
"Great!" Jing Shaoyu's eyes lit up. "Mom, teach me!"
"Of course. That's exactly why I came to find you." Jing Ziyuan revealed a loving smile. As she spoke, she sat beside Jing Shaoyu and began teaching him the basic steps of meditation.
Although Jing Ziyuan was only a Soul Master with less than fifteen levels of Soul Power, she was more than capable of teaching Jing Shaoyu how to meditate. After all, the fact that she had cultivated from level-one Soul Power to level fourteen with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul was enough to show that her fundamentals were solid.
Jing Shaoyu learned very quickly. After only one attempt, he smoothly entered a meditative state. A gratified and excited smile appeared on Jing Ziyuan's delicate face. She quietly withdrew, then scooped up Na'er, who had just finished bathing and was excitedly running toward Jing Shaoyu's bedroom.
"Hey, Mom, what are you doing? I want to see Brother!" Na'er protested sweetly as Jing Ziyuan tucked her under one arm, her little hands and feet flailing restlessly.
"No. Tonight, you're sleeping with Mom. Brother needs to cultivate tonight, so you can't disturb him!" Jing Ziyuan said.
Na'er puffed out her cheeks, her large eyes full of reluctance, as Jing Ziyuan carried her to her own bedroom. Just before entering, the little girl still looked longingly at Jing Shaoyu's bedroom door, hoping he would come out and take her away.
Unfortunately, Jing Shaoyu was already immersed in cultivation and was completely unaware of any of this.
