Heaven-Given Nine Trials, Opportunity to Become a God!

"Is that a skeleton martial soul?"

"The White Bone Douluo in Douluo Dalu II had a martial soul exactly like mine, but he only had a silver awakening."

"If it's a golden awakening, given the special nature of the skeleton martial soul, his achievements probably won't be inferior to Du Busi!"

Xia Mu pondered inwardly.

The grades of a body martial soul were actually quite easy to distinguish.

The closer a body martial soul was to vital organs, the greater its future power and growth potential would be!

"Dad's martial soul is his left and right arm bones!"

"Without a second awakening, a body martial soul like that is as difficult to cultivate as ascending to heaven!"

"It's really hard on him!"

"He's in his twenties and still just a Soul Master!"

Xia Mu recalled his father's martial soul. Although it was a body martial soul, its cultivation speed was like a crawling turtle, and the hardship in this was too much to put into words!

"I'm also in the dark about the second awakening of a body martial soul, but I do have a way!"

"Dad's and my martial souls are special skeleton martial souls among body martial souls. Perhaps in the future, we can borrow external forces to complete the second awakening of our martial souls."

"You must know that in this world, there is not only whale rubber, but also things like soul bones, which can be directly attached to a soul master's skeleton. A hundred-thousand-year soul bone can have the miraculous effect of shedding one's mortal body and exchanging one's bones!"

"Coupled with immortal herbs, it's a guaranteed gold-level awakening, but it looks like we'll have to wait a while!"

"As for whale rubber, I need to find a time to lay my cards on the table with them. The sooner it's used, the sooner I'll reap the benefits!"

"Whale rubber combined with internal martial arts stake-standing, paired with a medicinal bath, can greatly enhance a soul master's physique!"

Xia Mu calculated inwardly. Since he had already transmigrated, he definitely had to make use of his foreknowledge to rapidly enhance his own strength so he could plot welfare for his family.

The three essential sets for a transmigrator—whale rubber, immortal herbs, and hundred-thousand-year soul rings and soul bones—how could these be missing?

Whale rubber focused primarily on early-stage development; not only could it strengthen a soul master's own physique, but it could also increase soul power and help soul masters absorb over-limit soul rings, yielding countless benefits.

After becoming a Soul Elder, he could scheme for immortal herbs, then increase his own foundation and lay the groundwork for becoming a god!

Did they not see? The Shrek Seven Monsters relied on immortal herbs to lay the foundation for becoming gods, and from then on ascended to godhood at level one hundred!

As a transmigrator, Xia Mu had also dreamed of eternal youth so he could be a deity sharing the same lifespan as the heavens.

Now that he had the opportunity, he naturally had to seize it!

"Good son!"

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Xia Mu in a daze, Liu Yuer couldn't help asking.

"Mom!"

"The Light-Hiding Sword martial soul I awakened seems quite extraordinary; it actually seems to come with its own martial soul inheritance."

Xia Mu looked toward his mother and spoke.

"What? It comes with its own martial soul inheritance?"

"Could your Light-Hiding Sword be a super martial soul?"

As a yellow-robed deacon of Spirit Hall, Liu Yuer was crystal clear on the qualities of martial souls, so she couldn't help asking.

"A super martial soul?"

Xia Mu couldn't help raising his head to look at Liu Yuer.

"Xia Mu!"

"The martial souls in this world are bizarre and varied, but martial soul grades actually have distinct tiers!"

"Aside from trash martial souls, martial souls are further divided into low-level, middle-level, high-level, and top-level martial souls!"

"Above top-level martial souls, there are super martial souls, as well as the legendary god-level martial souls!"

"The martial soul of Spirit Hall's current Great Elder, Golden Crocodile Douluo—the Golden Crocodile King—is a super martial soul!"

"And the Seraphim martial soul of Spirit Hall's current pope is the legendary god-level martial soul!"

"All of these are strictly confidential information within Spirit Hall!"

"My martial soul is the Dragon-Pattern Sword. Because there are dragon patterns on the sword body, its quality far exceeds ordinary longswords."

"The Dragon-Pattern Sword martial soul belongs to high-level martial souls!"

"However, what a pity!"

"My innate soul power is only level five, so in the future I can only stop at the Soul King realm and miss out on the Soul Emperor realm altogether!"

"But you're different!"

"Your Light-Hiding Sword martial soul comes with an inheritance. Judging by its appearance, it's at least a top-level martial soul!"

"Who knows, perhaps it's a super martial soul!"

Liu Yuer sighed and spoke.

Mom, you've guessed wrong!

My Light-Hiding Sword is neither a top-level martial soul nor a super martial soul, but an ultimate martial soul!

The Light-Hiding Sword contains the Radiant Sacred Dragon within, making it the ultimate light, and it's just a hair's breadth away from ultimate metal.

Xia Mu thought to himself, not daring to speak it aloud.

The origin of the Light-Hiding Sword was extraordinary, and its grade was higher than a super martial soul, but he didn't dare to say it openly.

In this era, there was no such saying as an ultimate martial soul yet; ultimate martial souls were included within super martial souls.

A super martial soul was merely a general term, corresponding to the Super Douluo realm among Titled Douluos.

Seeing that Liu Yuer's mood was extremely low, Xia Mu hurriedly stepped forward and began to comfort her.

"Don't worry, Mom!"

"Your future prospects are entirely on me!"

Xia Mu patted his chest in assurance, his expression so endearingly naive that it almost melted Liu Yuer.

"Mom, I see that your soul rings seem to be the optimal soul ring configuration. How did you manage that?"

Xia Mu was very curious. He knew that hunting hundred-year soul beasts wasn't child's play; it was something to risk one's life over.

A hundred-year soul beast could only be handled by a Soul Grandmaster.

"This?"

"I just got lucky!"

"My first soul ring originated from a three-hundred-year lone bamboo, a mentorship gift given to me by my teacher."

"As for the second soul ring, it came from a six-hundred-year ironwood, which was also the betrothal gift sent by your father!"

"I've been able to cultivate to today entirely relying on luck, and these two hundred-year soul rings are also my greatest source of confidence!"

Liu Yuer smiled and explained to Xia Mu.

"Wow!"

"You actually had such experiences!"

"Then what about Dad?"

"How come he also has a hundred-year soul ring?" Xia Mu looked at Liu Yuer and continued to ask aloud.

"His first soul ring originated from a three-hundred-year Thousand-Jin Ant, and I even hunted it for him personally!"

"That was also a gift I gave him!"

Liu Yuer put it simply. For that hundred-year Thousand-Jin Ant soul ring, she had paid out a massive amount of money.

This hundred-year soul ring had almost emptied Liu Yuer's family savings, ultimately allowing Xia Feng to get his wish.

"Xia Mu, you must remember!"

"Soul hunting is no child's play!"

"For a soul master wishing to cultivate to a Titled Douluo, every single soul ring is crucial. This is very important!"

"In myths and legends, a soul master can utilize nine soul rings to excavate the potential of their martial soul."

"Once they comprehend the martial soul origin, they can grasp the laws and become a Peerless Douluo, or even a god!"

"These nine soul rings are nine trials bestowed by the heavens, so the choice of soul rings is extremely important!"

"Never make a false step and walk your path astray, or you will regret it bitterly when the time comes."

Liu Yuer spoke of a secret; this was a myth and legend passed down by word of mouth on the Douluo Continent.

A soul master's nine soul rings were a divine trial bestowed by the heavens. Only by completing the divine trials could one excavate the martial soul origin and subsequently master the laws of heaven and earth!

Only a soul master who mastered the martial soul origin could advance to a Peerless Douluo and obtain the qualifications to become a god at level one hundred!

"What?"

"These nine soul rings are heaven-given divine trials?"

"I never expected there would be such a legend!"

Xia Mu was not unfamiliar with divine trials at all. As a transmigrator, he knew many secrets of this world, such as deity inheritances and the legendary divine trials.

However, Xia Mu was very surprised to hear the legend of the heaven-given nine trials from his own mother's mouth.

"That's right, Xia Mu!"

"After your martial soul mutated, its quality is extremely high!"

"Your innate soul power is level seven, and with diligent cultivation in the future, you will be able to become an eight-ring Soul Douluo!"

"If you have great fortuitous encounters upon you, you might even become a legendary Titled Douluo in the future!"

"In your choice of soul rings, you must be extremely cautious. Making a false step is definitely not acceptable!"

"Once a soul ring is absorbed by a soul master, it cannot be changed. You must remember this in the future!"

Liu Yuer advised earnestly and persuasively.

Xia Mu's talent was extraordinary, and she didn't want her son to take a detour, lest it ruin his future prospects.
