Douluo: Martial Soul Ghost Emperor of the Wedding Dress, All Spirit Beasts Sacrifice Themselves
Author: Fuyao Junye
Synopsis:
Su Wen transmigrated to the Douluo Continent and was adopted by Lingyuan Douluo of Spirit Hall. Upon awakening, his Martial Soul was the Ghost Emperor of the Wedding Dress.
His Martial Soul strode atop the Blood-Colored Higanbana and commanded the Samsara Dao. A Red Oil-Paper Umbrella hovered above its head, with the most evil Dowry Judge sealed inside.
That year, all the dead beings came under Su Wen's control.
Tang San: Return my mother's soul, or I'll have no choice but to call you my fake father!
Tang Hao: You wretched son, you've got a death wish!
Martial Soul: Ghost Emperor of the Wedding Dress
"Xiao Wen, want to live off a woman?"
In Spirit City, inside a quiet courtyard, a voice came from the doorway.
A woman in a red robe strode into the room, her long legs carrying her forward.
Beneath her robe, a black leather outfit accentuated her voluptuous figure to the fullest.
She pounced on the boy in the room, pulled him into her arms, and gave him a fierce squeeze.
"Aunt Ye, my teeth are still growing. Ask me again when I'm older, if they don't grow in properly!"
The boy looked about six years old. His face was still childlike, and his eyes were a pair of eerie, dark-red pupils.
His name was Su Wen. Six years earlier, a large truck had hit him and sent him to the Douluo Continent.
He had become the orphan of a Cardinal in Spirit Hall.
A year ago, his parents had fallen while pursuing Tang Hao alongside Spirit Hall's Pope, Qian Xunji. Afterward, he had been adopted by Ye Yuan'er, his mother's closest friend.
Ye Yuan'er held a high position in Spirit Hall and served as the Platinum Bishop of Spirit City.
She was an eighty-ninth-rank Soul Douluo with the Blazing Spirit Kite Martial Soul, and would one day become one of Spirit Hall's nine great elders.
"Hehehe, if the Martial Soul you awaken is no good, then this'll be the only meal you'll ever get to eat, Xiao Wen."
Ye Yuan'er laughed like a tinkling bell. A faint blush colored her lovely face as she gazed at Su Wen with unmistakable affection.
Su Wen froze for a moment, then realized Aunt Ye was trying to soothe his nerves about awakening his Martial Soul.
Everyone on the Douluo Continent possessed a Martial Soul. The strength of their innate Soul Power determined how far they could go as Soul Masters.
Both one's Martial Soul and innate Soul Power were tied to one's parents. Su Wen's parents each had Innate Soul Power of level seven, so in theory, his shouldn't be too low—unless it had mutated.
"It isn't Spirit Hall's scheduled day for awakening Martial Souls yet, but that doesn't matter. It's your birthday, and I'm a Platinum Bishop. I'll make an exception for you!"
"Come, stand in the middle!"
With a casual wave of her hand, Ye Yuan'er made a hexagonal array of black stones appear on the floor.
Su Wen nodded and walked to the center of the array, full of anticipation.
Martial Souls were inherited from one's parents. His father's Martial Soul had been a Soul-Snatching Umbrella, while his mother's had been a red flower that could absorb life and heal. He'd heard both were Mutated Martial Souls.
Su Wen was eager to find out which one he would inherit.
Ye Yuan'er began channeling Soul Power, and the six stones glimmered together.
A halo enveloped Su Wen. At once, he felt as though something inside him were being pulled out, gathering toward a particular spot.
"Xiao Wen, hold out your right hand!"
Su Wen nodded and immediately extended his right hand. Hope showed on his face as he stared intently at his palm.
Just then, a sinister gust of wind howled past, making the curtains rustle.
In an instant, a chilling aura surged skyward. Boundless resentment, baleful energy, and killing intent rapidly enveloped Spirit City.
The once-clear sky darkened. Thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed.
Su Wen shivered all over. He couldn't see his Martial Soul, but he felt a chill behind him.
"Xiao Wen, y-your back!"
At her words, Su Wen immediately turned around. A woman dressed in wedding attire was floating before him, though she hadn't been there a moment ago.
A scarlet Phoenix Coronet adorned her head. She wore an embroidered red robe, her graceful figure draped in a Phoenix Coronet and Rosy Cloud Cape. A red skirt fell to the ground, revealing glimpses of her jade-white feet, with blood dripping from her delicate toes.
Beneath her red veil, her face was pale and her eyes glowed with a hazy, blood-red light. Her crimson lips looked as alluring as if she had just feasted on human blood.
A red Oil-paper Umbrella floated above the Martial Soul. Its canopy was covered in ancient, cryptic incantations that pulsed with a ghostly green light. Nine long banners hung around it, each bearing a talisman covered in indecipherable writing. They seemed to be sealing something away.
At the Martial Soul's feet bloomed an enchanting flower. Its petals were like blood, and its fragrance was intoxicating.
It looked a bit like a Blood-Colored Higanbana!
"What an evil aura!"
"What kind of Martial Soul is this?"
Ye Yuan'er's expression changed dramatically. She had never seen Xiao Wen's Martial Soul before—and three things had appeared in succession. The umbrella and flower resembled those of Su Wen's parents, but they were different. They had clearly mutated.
"Ghost Emperor of the Wedding Dress. The umbrella and the flower aren't Martial Souls. They seem to be accompanying weapons!"
Su Wen silently recited the information about his Martial Soul that had appeared in his mind. For a moment, he stood rooted to the spot.
The Phoenix Coronet and Rosy Cloud Cape on his Martial Soul looked far too much like the clothes he'd worn before transmigrating.
If this weren't the Douluo Continent, he would've thought he was witnessing a supernatural event.
Su Wen took in the dark-red aura emanating from his Martial Soul. It was brimming with evil, and the corner of his mouth twitched. Thankfully, this wasn't ten thousand years in the future. Otherwise, the moment he awakened, he'd have been branded an Evil Soul Master and killed on the spot.
Ye Yuan'er's eyes lit up. She had never heard of a Martial Soul with a name like that.
It looked like an unknown, powerful Martial Soul!
Suppressing her excitement, she took out a crystal ball for testing Soul Power.
"Xiao Wen, come test your Innate Soul Power. I have a feeling it'll be high."
Su Wen placed his hand on the crystal ball.
At Ye Yuan'er's instruction, he channeled Soul Power into it.
In an instant, the crystal ball filled to the brim.
It blazed with light.
"Innate level ten!"
"Kehehehe!"
"My Xiao Wen has the potential to become a Titled Douluo!"
Ye Yuan'er wrapped Su Wen in her arms, then planted a fierce kiss on his chubby cheek.
A genius with Innate Full Soul Power, if he didn't die young, would at the very least become a nine-ring Titled Douluo. With enough cultivation resources, he might even reach Super Douluo.
As for the evil, dark-red aura his Martial Soul gave off, she simply ignored it. The current Pope's Martial Soul also had an evil aspect, and there were Titled Douluo in the Elder Hall with similar qualities. It was perfectly normal.
"Xiao Wen, what are the accompanying weapons?"
"An accompanying weapon is a weapon that forms a special bond with a Martial Soul. They're inseparable and can be summoned at will. Martial Souls with accompanying weapons are generally extremely powerful."
"Your Holiness the Pope! What brings you here?"
Ye Yuan'er froze slightly. A woman had appeared at the doorway without her noticing.
The woman was beautiful, wearing a luxurious, close-fitting purple gown patterned with gold. Its waist cinched to a slender point, and the fabric clung tightly to her body, accentuating her perfect curves and alluring figure.
"I came to see why an evil force had appeared above Spirit City. I didn't expect it to be caused by your Martial Soul awakening. Ye Yuan'er, this is the child you adopted, isn't it?"
Bibi Dong entered the room, her beautiful eyes studying Su Wen.
An Innate Full Soul Power talent, a Mutated Martial Soul, two accompanying weapons, and the same Martial Soul attribute as her own. This child had boundless potential.
"Your Holiness the Pope, this is Su Wen!"
Ye Yuan'er led Su Wen in paying his respects to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong gave a slight nod. "Xiao Wen, your Martial Soul must have more to it. Try sensing it again. Does anything about it feel special?"
Martial Soul: Ghost Emperor of the Wedding Dress
At her words, Su Wen carefully sensed his Martial Soul.
The throbbing sensation was almost like a pulse connected to his own blood.
His heart pounded.
"It seems to have an innate trait: the Martial Soul fears neither light nor holy attributes. It possesses a dark attribute and contains resentment, baleful energy, killing intent, and destruction!"
"It also has a domain: Senluo Ghost Domain. The domain covers a radius of one hundred meters. All my attributes increase by 150%, while my enemies' strength is reduced by 20%. For every level I gain from now on, all my attributes increase by 1%, and the range expands by one hundred meters. Enemies within the domain also can't use stealth abilities!"
"So, I think my Martial Soul follows the strong-attack and control routes!"
Su Wen didn't hide anything. Since he was in Spirit Hall, showing off his talent appropriately would help others take him seriously.
Ye Yuan'er and Bibi Dong both fell silent.
There was even a hint of envy in Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes.
The ability to resist holy attributes was something many evil and dark Martial Souls dreamed of.
His Martial Soul was superior to her Death Spider Emperor and Soul-Eater Spider Emperor.
Even if it hadn't reached the divine level, it was probably infinitely close.
After a moment's thought, Bibi Dong suddenly asked, "Xiao Wen, are you willing to become my disciple?"
Su Wen instinctively looked at Ye Yuan'er. When he saw her signal that he should agree, he respectfully bowed to Bibi Dong. "Your disciple Su Wen pays his respects to you, Teacher!"
"Good, very good! I came in a hurry and didn't bring anything with me. This is a Storage Soul Tool I used in the past. It has eighteen cubic meters of space and can store living things. Inside are my token and a Meditation Cultivation Method I'm currently using. You can cultivate according to its instructions."
