A Lifetime of Hardship, a Tear of Compassion!

"Sect Master, you guessed correctly. I am indeed the second type, it's just that..."

Meeting a "Grandmaster" like Qin Yun for the first time, Tang San had originally intended to come clean to resolve the doubts in his heart.

After all, according to Qin Yun's theory, Twin Martial Souls only appear when the quality of the parents' martial souls is nearly equal.

Since his Blue Silver Grass martial soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, the origin of the hammer in his left hand must certainly be extraordinary.

If only one parent were exceptional, one could explain it away as a martial soul mutation.

But what if both were exceptional?

Compared to a simultaneous mutation, Tang San was more inclined to believe that the origins of both his parents were likely far from ordinary.

It's just...

What his mother looked like, Tang San had long since forgotten over these many years.

But his father, Tang San knew relatively well.

An alcoholic, irritable, unremarkable, and even somewhat lazy blacksmith.

Could such a person truly have some special background?

Furthermore, as a child, while some things were difficult to say aloud, he couldn't help but think them.

If your origins are so extraordinary, then why did you make me live a life like that?

Fortunately, just as Tang San was preparing to confess to Qin Yun, he remembered the promise he made upon leaving Holy Soul Village.

He must not expose the hammer martial soul in his left hand, nor could he add soul rings to it.

He must always remember to use the hammer in his left hand to protect the grass in his right!

Seeing that Tang San was merely hesitating and had not raised his Silent Sleeve Arrow as he did in the original story, Qin Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed the accumulated 45 points of favorability were actually having an effect!

Otherwise, he feared he would end up like Gangzi, facing a path to certain death.

"No matter!"

"Little San, remember that everyone has secrets, and everyone has their own unique background."

"If you don't want to say it, then don't. No one will force you."

"If there comes a time when you want to talk, you can naturally come to me."

"However, these aren't major issues. With the quality of your Blue Silver Grass, combined with the cultivation techniques I will impart to you later, your cultivation speed will certainly not be slow!"

"Many thanks for the Sect Master's understanding!"

Bowing with cupped hands, Tang San offered a respectful salute to such an understanding Sect Master.

[Tang God King favorability +5! (45/100)]

[Host, although I don't know how you managed it, this is definitely a good start.]

[Why not put in a little more effort? Perhaps the son-in-law and the chastity lock will be yours. Being a dog for the God King isn't so bad; how many people want that path but don't have the opportunity!]

This trash system—if it weren't still somewhat useful, he would have uninstalled it long ago!

However, after these words, Tang Ritian's wariness should be lower, right?

Perhaps he might even give up on Yu Xiaogang and let Tang San be trained by him.

There was no help for it; with his limited cultivation, facing that ticking time bomb Tang Ritian, he had to be cautious in everything he did.

"Forget it, let's draw the rewards first and see if I can get some life-saving measures."

"Betting on Tang Ritian's conscience is ultimately not very safe."

"After all, the Blue Silver Emperor from back then is a cautionary tale!"

"System, get to work. Spend all the favorability from the [God King's Attachment] mission. Let me see what I get!"

On the road to the Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy, Qin Yun recounted intelligence about the soul master world to Tang San, silently farming more favorability.

At the same time, he went all-in on the favorability he had just earned.

[Ding! Forty favorability points consumed. Congratulations to the host for obtaining the following rewards!]

[1. Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer (Mastery)!]

[2. Clear Sky Nine Absolutes (Mastery)!]

What is a "tasteless chicken rib"?

This is exactly what a chicken rib is!

"I don't even have the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul. What am I supposed to do with this? It's truly tasteless to consume, yet a pity to discard!"

However, as a familiar cooling sensation appeared in his mind—just like when he mastered the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record—once he thoroughly grasped the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer and the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, Qin Yun suddenly had other thoughts.

The Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, to put it plainly, is a highly sophisticated method of borrowing force to strike.

Once mastered, it can be used not only to forge minerals but also for combat.

But at its core, this is simply a method of utilizing force!

It is not only possible to use the Clear Sky Hammer to execute it; when using other Martial Souls or even weapons, it can be performed just the same!

Much like Feng Xiaotian's Self-Created Soul Skill, the underlying principles are actually identical to the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.

By the same token, the Clear Sky Sect's inherited secret technique, the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes, is also essentially a method of utilizing force.

Void Formula: Inclusive and all-encompassing, like an echo in an empty valley.

Seal Formula: Tensed like a drawn bow, sealing and solidifying power.

Pierce Formula: A continuous flow of energy, stacking offensive momentum.

Penetrate Formula: Combining movement and stillness, piercing the surface through a single point.

Entangle Formula: Silk-reeling spiral force, generating life through the interplay of curves and straights.

Quake Formula: Borrowing force to strike, using vibration to buffer and impact.

Break Formula: Breaking through defenses with swift, concentrated force.

Instant Formula: Free and unconstrained movement, flickering in and out of existence in a flash.

Collapse Formula: Radiating like a meteor, like a mountain crumbling before one's eyes.

The core of the technique lies in the stacking of vibrational force; for instance, the Quake Formula can trigger fluctuations in internal energy, while the Break Formula can achieve a destructive burst.

Unlike the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, which requires a buildup of momentum, the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes do not have nearly as many restrictive conditions.

Following this logic, since the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer can be performed with other Martial Souls, the Clear Sky Nine Absolutes can naturally be performed as well!

It is a pity that my Martial Soul is an eye, not a powerful Tool Martial Soul.

However, considering Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, perhaps in the future I can find some special metals and have him forge a divine weapon for me, allowing me to unleash my combat power to perfection!

Although weapons cannot be brought into the Soul Fighting Tournament, a Soul Master can still use them in daily life.

A true divine weapon is in no way inferior, even when facing a top-tier Tool Martial Soul!

In this way, my means of dealing with enemies can become a bit more comprehensive!

[3. Three drops of Bodhisattva's Tear!]

[4. Golden Dragon Spear!]

If Qin Yun had felt a bit disappointed upon seeing the first two lottery items, then upon seeing the latter two, nothing but excitement remained in his heart!

Life is full of hardship, a single tear of compassion!

What kind of existence is the Bodhisattva's Tear? It is the pinnacle of Tang Sect hidden weapon techniques, a supreme skill that Tang San could only execute during his Title Douluo period.

It ignores defense and never misses its target!

The moment it was unleashed, the Bodhisattva's Tear, condensing the entirety of Tang San's cultivation, pierced directly through the heart of Qian Renxue, who had already attained godhood!

If it could injure even a god, how could anyone else hope to survive it?

Ordinary people, Soul Masters, or even Title Douluos—unless they possess some means of resurrection, they would be instantly killed the moment they showed their heads!

Three chances—it's a bit on the low side, but it counts as a safeguard at the very least.

I was a bit worried about Tang Ritian before, but now, he had better keep his tail tucked between his legs; otherwise, I'll have to use his own son's methods to teach him a lesson!

However, precious as the Bodhisattva's Tear may be, it still falls slightly short when compared to the Golden Dragon Spear drawn at the end.

I never expected to draw such a divine artifact; the System's capabilities are truly no joke. It's just a pity... if I remember correctly, this thing isn't something just anyone can use!

To be able to look but not touch—isn't this just pure frustration!
