The Key to Gate of Babylon: Key of Royal Law

The Key to Gate of Babylon: Key of Royal Law

After the golden glow of Soul Power had completely faded, Su Yuntian stood steadily amid the ruins of the living room and summoned the Martial Soul "Key of Royal Law" once more.

The "Key of Royal Law" was the key to Gilgamesh's Noble Phantasm, the "Gate of Babylon." It took the form of a bizarre, glittering golden key.

Since the "Gate of Babylon" was a treasury that conceptually stored every treasure in the world, as long as human civilization continued to exist, its catalog would continue to expand, and the teeth of the "Key of Royal Law" would constantly change as well.

Su Yuntian said excitedly, "I have a feeling that this key will become the most famous Martial Soul on the Douluo Continent!"

Having awakened Martial Souls for countless six-year-old children over the years, Su Yuntao had seen all kinds of Weapon Martial Souls. Yet never before had he encountered one as shocking as the "Key of Royal Law."

Just what was the origin of this strange key Martial Soul?

Seeing his younger brother looking so certain, Su Yuntao still had doubts in his heart, but he could easily sense the strength of the "Key of Royal Law" Martial Soul.

He was sincerely happy for his younger brother.

Awakening a Martial Soul meant that his brother could finally leave his sickbed behind and live a normal life—perhaps even a life above others.

Su Yuntao was overjoyed!

After his excitement subsided a little, Su Yuntao once again had Su Yuntian withdraw his Martial Soul. Then, holding Su Yuntian's hand, he said earnestly, "Xiaotian, from now on, don't let anyone know that you possess Twin Martial Souls."

Before transmigrating, Su Yuntian had read Douluo Continent as well, so he naturally understood how serious this was. He hurriedly nodded. "Mm, I'll listen to you, Brother. From now on, I'll never show my Angel Martial Soul to outsiders. In future cultivation, I'll focus mainly on the 'Key of Royal Law' Martial Soul."

Su Yuntao smiled in relief and reached out to stroke Su Yuntian's head.

...His brother had awakened a Martial Soul, yet he hadn't let the excitement go to his head. This child truly had potential.

Although Su Yuntian had been in poor health before, he had always been calm and obedient, with a mind far more mature than his age. Thus, when he said that he would not reveal his Angel Martial Soul to outsiders, Su Yuntao did not find it strange at all.

Then, Su Yuntao quickly noticed something strange about Su Yuntian.

...After withdrawing his Martial Soul, Su Yuntian's hair and eye colors hadn't changed back!

Like his elder brother Su Yuntao, Su Yuntian had originally had black hair and black eyes. Yet for some reason, he had turned into a blond-haired, red-eyed child!

His short pale-golden hair, ruby-like pupils, and obedient, adorable face made him look very good. It was just somewhat... hard to get used to.

On the Douluo Continent, blond hair was common, but red pupils were truly far too rare.

Su Yuntian had a rough idea of what was going on. He vaguely guessed that, because he had received the blessing of Hero King Gilgamesh, his appearance had naturally begun to resemble that glittering golden king.

Using the worldview of Douluo Continent to explain it, the awakening of his Martial Soul had caused a mutation in his body and appearance. That was perfectly normal.

As for Su Yuntao, after a brief internal struggle, he quickly came to terms with it.

...There was no situation better than this. He should be grateful to heaven, grateful for the gods' blessing, shouldn't he?

Thinking this, Su Yuntao bent down and picked up the crystal ball used to test Soul Power. He poured Soul Power into it, and the crystal ball began to emit a faint cyan glow.

"Xiaotian, now that you've awakened your Martial Soul, let's test your Soul Power. Give me a hand."

Following his brother's instructions, Su Yuntian relaxed and gently placed his right hand on the crystal ball.

In an instant, the faint cyan light within the crystal ball turned golden, growing from sparse to dense.

Before long, the golden Soul Power fluctuations stabilized and stopped growing brighter.

Su Yuntao examined it carefully and quickly announced the result. "Level six! Xiaotian, your Innate Soul Power is level six."

Su Yuntian froze when he heard that. Only level six?

I thought it would be Innate Full Soul Power... Fine, level six it is. It's still much better than half a level.

Yet Su Yuntao seemed extremely happy. He picked up Su Yuntian and began spinning in circles.

Unfortunately, after only two spins, he felt as though someone was watching him.

Su Yuntao immediately set Su Yuntian down gently. One white and one yellow Soul Ring lit up beneath his feet in an instant.

"Lone Wolf, possess!"

A soul-stirring green glow flashed in his eyes. The Lone Wolf Martial Soul rapidly merged with his body, making Su Yuntao's originally tall, slender frame much more muscular.

The most obvious change was in Su Yuntao's hands. Long claws had emerged from them, faintly gleaming with a cold light.

Su Yuntian knew that this was his brother's Martial Soul, but the problem was... why did he look like he was facing a formidable enemy? Was there an enemy nearby?

"Xiaotian, stand behind me. We're being watched."

Su Yuntao spoke in a low voice.

"The other party is also a Soul Master, and they may not be weaker than me. Be careful."

"Mm."

Su Yuntian also wanted to activate his Martial Soul, but he did not have any Soul Rings or Soul Skills yet. Although his Martial Soul was the "Key of Royal Law," it seemed that he still could not open Hero King Gilgamesh's "Gate of Babylon."

In other words, Su Yuntian's combat power was at most 5 right now.

There was no helping it. He could only lie low and build up his strength first.

Surprisingly, after Su Yuntao underwent Martial Soul Possession, his spiritual sense and five senses should have become sharper. Yet he gradually stopped feeling that watching gaze.

Had the person hiding in the shadows already left?

Su Yuntao wanted to search the surrounding area, but his younger brother Su Yuntian had no combat power. If someone took advantage of Su Yuntao leaving to attack him, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After a while longer, Su Yuntao only slowly withdrew his Martial Soul once he could no longer sense anything unusual.

Su Yuntian also had a vague feeling about it and asked tentatively, "Brother, are we safe now?"

"For the time being."

Su Yuntao habitually rubbed Su Yuntian's head, making Su Yuntian mutter unhappily, "Stop rubbing it... I won't grow taller if you keep doing that..."

Ignoring his brother's little complaint, Su Yuntao said with a grave expression, "Xiaotian, let's pack our things immediately. Starting today, we'll stay at the Spirit Hall in the city for a while. There are plenty of people there, and security is tight. It's safer than here!"

"Alright!"

Su Yuntian knew very well that, given Su Yuntao's status as an utter supporting character, he would basically never encounter any danger in Douluo Continent. He was not strong—he had only been level 26 two years ago, and was merely level 27 now—so he should not have attracted anyone's attention.

If that was the case, then the person hiding in the shadows earlier had most likely come for him.

That was because the commotion from his awakening had been too great, and one of his two Martial Souls was a Four-Winged Angel!

Su Yuntian himself did not know why he possessed a Four-Winged Angel Martial Soul, but he did know that Angel Martial Souls were extremely special in this world. Only the former Pope Qian Xunji, Qian Xunji's father Qian Daoliu, and Qian Xunji's daughter Qian Renxue possessed Angel Martial Souls.

If someone in Nuoding City awakened an Angel Martial Soul, it would undoubtedly cause a huge uproar in the Soul Master world, especially within Spirit Hall.

That was precisely why Su Yuntao had warned him not to show his Angel Martial Soul to others.

After all, a common man was innocent, but possessing a treasure invited disaster.

The first person with half-level Innate Soul Power was Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang; the second was keyboard warrior Li Xiaoyuan. Please bookmark and recommend this! It's really important during the new book period! Thank you, everyone!
