At his words.
Ye Linyuan froze.
Wasn't this developing a little too fast?
He clearly remembered that in the original story, Electrolux had observed and tested Huo Yuhao for a long time before he had been willing to pass Necromancy on to him.
Why had it turned into a starter gift package the moment it came to him?
If he had not known Electrolux's character and nature through the original story, he would have truly suspected that this old man had been possessed by some Gu master from another world!
Did transmigrators really have protagonist halos?
Seemingly sensing Ye Linyuan's hesitation, Electrolux chuckled and explained, "Young man, there is no need for suspicion. I bear you no ill will."
"Necromancy is my proudest achievement. There are two reasons I am willing to pass it on to you."
"First, one who possesses a sacred attribute cannot have an evil heart."
"Second, I have taken up your Exquisite Sacred Heart martial soul, which is equivalent to replacing it and becoming your second martial soul."
"However, due to my own unique nature, although this martial soul of yours can still fuse with Soul Rings, it can no longer possess Soul Skills."
"Passing Necromancy on to you can be considered compensation for your loss."
Ye Linyuan immediately understood.
So that was it.
Since Electrolux was willing to take him as a disciple, how could Ye Linyuan, who held a transmigrator's script, possibly refuse?
Trading an Exquisite Sacred Heart for Electrolux, a super cheat, plus Necromancy was absolutely not a losing deal!
Thus, he immediately nodded and respectfully said, "I am willing to take Elder Yi as my master and inherit your legacy."
"Disciple Ye Linyuan greets Master!"
Electrolux smiled in satisfaction. "I never expected that, with only a wisp of my remnant soul remaining, I could still accept a disciple naturally endowed with both sacred and evil power. Hahahaha!"
Looking at the Unicorn energy outside, Ye Linyuan asked curiously, "Elder Yi, can the Unicorn's Soul Ring energy repair your Divine Sense?"
Elder Yi laughed. "How could it be that simple?"
"Although I failed to become a god, I was only one final step away."
"While the Unicorn's energy is gentle and pure and contains a trace of the power of laws, its level is still far from sufficient to repair Divine Sense."
"However, nourished by this energy, the fragments of my Divine Sense can at least stabilize and will not dissipate so easily."
After thinking for a moment, Ye Linyuan said, "Elder Yi, I originally planned to focus on cultivating the Exquisite Sacred Heart and take either a support or control path, preparing for the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger in the future."
"But you just said that the Exquisite Sacred Heart can only fuse with Soul Ring energy to strengthen itself from now on and can no longer possess Soul Skills. Does that mean I need to change my primary martial soul?"
After a brief ponder, Electrolux said, "Holy Necromancy is the most powerful ability of my life. Its combat potential is beyond question."
"But its outward manifestations are too grim and evil, making it easy for others to misunderstand."
"If you use Necromancy as your primary method now and expose it while fighting others, you will easily invite trouble upon yourself."
"Before your strength reaches a certain level, I suggest you keep Necromancy as a trump card and do not reveal it lightly."
"Although your other martial soul, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, also leans toward evil, it is ultimately a product of this continent. Compared with Necromancy, it is easier for others to accept."
"As long as you do not slaughter indiscriminately, others may fear you, but at least you will not become a public enemy of the continent."
"Therefore, I suggest you use the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger as your primary martial soul for cultivation in the early stages."
Ye Linyuan considered this for a moment before asking with some hesitation, "Elder Yi, if that is the case, then the quality of the Soul Ring added to my first martial soul will be much lower. Will that affect me later on?"
At that, Electrolux laughed.
A sudden note of pride and dominance entered his gentle voice. "You need not worry about that."
"Once your Necromancy reaches great mastery in the future, even if the entire continent stands against you, there will be no need to fear!"
Hearing this, Ye Linyuan's spirits surged. He suddenly came to his senses and cursed himself for being foolish.
Who could an undead mage at full strength fear in terms of actual combat ability?
Why would he need to care about that tiny combat boost from Soul Ring age?
His vision had been too narrow!
Ye Linyuan immediately grew excited.
The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger was absolutely one of the top beast martial souls on the Douluo Continent.
If he made it his main focus in the early stages, he could probably crush ninety-nine percent of Soul Masters his age.
Then, once he added Necromancy later to make up for its shortcomings in group battles... hehe, wouldn't that mean high damage early on and even higher damage later? Invincible throughout the whole journey, then?
Ye Linyuan felt completely enlightened.
Just thinking about it felt amazing!
"I understand. Thank you for your guidance, Elder Yi," Ye Linyuan said sincerely.
At that moment.
Electrolux suddenly asked, "Linyuan, is that green-haired old man outside also your teacher?"
Ye Linyuan paused, then said, "Yes. His name is Du Busi, and he saved my life not long ago."
Thinking of how Du Busi had furiously and unhesitatingly stepped in to stop the attack on him earlier, Electrolux chuckled. "He treats you well, and his strength is decent enough."
"Go out. If we keep talking, your teacher may go mad with worry."
Outside.
Du Busi watched his precious disciple, whose eyes remained tightly shut without any movement for a long while, and anxiously paced in circles.
"Damn it, why is there still no reaction? It has nearly been half an hour!"
If Ye Linyuan's aura and Soul Power fluctuations had not remained relatively steady, he would likely have long since lost patience and tried to force his way into Ye Linyuan's mental space to investigate.
Just then.
Ye Linyuan's eyelids trembled slightly, and he finally opened his eyes.
Du Busi halted, then hurriedly leaned over. "Linyuan, are you all right?"
"What was that Gray Stream just now? I seemed to sense the aura of a god within it?"
Seeing the tension and urgency on Du Busi's face, warmth rose in Ye Linyuan's heart.
But remembering Elder Yi's instructions, Ye Linyuan controlled his expression and deliberately revealed an excited look. "Rest assured, Teacher. I'm fine."
"That stream did not intend to harm me. On the contrary, it was an enormous opportunity!"
Du Busi's eyes widened in uncertain shock. "An enormous opportunity? What do you mean?"
Ye Linyuan wore a solemn expression. "Teacher, that stream was a fragment of a god's consciousness, and I have already been chosen by him as his inheritor!"
The moment those words came out.
Even Du Busi, with his status and experience, could not help widening his eyes and crying out in shock, "What did you say?!"
"That Gray Stream is an inheritance from a god!?"
Ye Linyuan nodded with certainty. "That is exactly right!"
That was right.
This was the excuse Ye Linyuan had made up to conceal Electrolux.
Electrolux's existence was far too special. The fewer people who knew of him, the safer Ye Linyuan would be.
But Du Busi had personally witnessed Electrolux entering Ye Linyuan's body. It was impossible to hide it, so he could only think of another way to cover it up.
And to the natives of the Douluo Continent, an inheritance of a godly seat was the most convincing excuse!
