All Beings Help Me, I Help All Beings

All Beings Help Me, I Help All Beings

"I never expected Evil Emperor to be this kind of person." Snow Emperor shook her head repeatedly.

Qin Sheng chuckled. "Who would want to die if they could live?"

The longer one lived, the stronger one was, and the higher one's status, the less willing one was to die easily.

This applied whether to emperors and generals on ordinary Earth or mighty experts in supernatural worlds.

Take the Forbidden Realm Supremes of Shrouding the Heavens by name.

In their first life, they had boundless ambition, confident that none in ancient or future times could match them. Forbidden Realms? Even dogs would not enter! If the other Extreme Dao Supremes could not become immortals, it was because they were useless. Let me do it!

In their second life's twilight years: No, I can't hold on anymore, sob sob sob. I have to self-sever. I can't die. Friends in the Forbidden Realm, make some room for me.

All one could say was that the years were merciless, and time was like a blade.

It cut not only at one's lifespan, but also at one's heart.

After returning alone to Blazing Spirit Academy, Qin Sheng met with Zhang Lexuan.

"Xiaosheng, what was the attitude of those soul beasts?"

"They all agreed. Every obstacle has been cleared away. Now we just need to push things forward."

Making everyone a soul master would take time. Simply awakening the Martial Souls of all living beings on the continent and teaching them cultivation methods could not be rushed, not to mention the many other matters that needed handling.

But Qin Sheng could afford to wait.

"I knew it. When you personally take action, Xiaosheng, there's nothing you can't accomplish." Zhang Lexuan practically worshipped Qin Sheng blindly.

"Yeah." Qin Sheng spoke with some emotion.

"Looking back, I've cultivated for many years since I was a Great Soul Master, and I've done many things."

"Whatever I want to do, I basically succeed at every single one. If I don't want something done, no one else can do it either."

"Are there people below who oppose me? Yes, but very few—unless they no longer value their lives."

"Lexuan, do you think what I'm doing is right?"

"You are always right! I will follow in your footsteps forever!"

Zhang Lexuan's expression was resolute. She was practically on the verge of raising both hands and bursting into tears.

"There's one more matter I need you to keep an eye on."

Qin Sheng brought up another matter. "Once the universal soul master plan begins to show results, countless special soul skills will surely emerge across the continent."

Soul skills were highly unpredictable.

Even a pair of twins with identical Martial Souls who absorbed identical Soul Rings could end up with vastly different soul skills.

To Qin Sheng, one of the most fascinating phenomena on Douluo Continent was:

Mutation.

An earthworm Martial Soul could mutate into a true dragon. Conversely, a true dragon Martial Soul could also mutate into a mutt.

After a rabbit Soul Ring fused with a Martial Soul, it might mutate into an invincibility-type soul skill. After a Dragon Clan Soul Ring was absorbed, it might even result in a farting soul skill...

"Send word across the continent in the name of Blazing Spirit Academy. Anyone with special soul skills may register in the various cities, then have their information sent to the academy for screening."

"Those who pass the screening, regardless of their strength or the quality of their Martial Souls, are to be brought to Blazing Spirit Academy. I want to study their soul skills. Once the research is complete, give them compensation."

Qin Sheng had never forgotten about turning soul skills with special effects into secret techniques, and he had continuously researched it.

With universal soul masters in the future, he believed even more soul skills would emerge to catch his eye and inspire him.

"Right. When announcing it across the continent, give a few examples of special soul skills, such as Invincible Golden Body, Replacement, Teleportation, and the like. Soul skills like Blue Silver Entanglement don't need to be registered."

"Blue Silver Entanglement... Isn't that the Tang Sect's inherited soul skill? Sea God Tang San had that soul skill too, didn't he?"

Zhang Lexuan was puzzled. "A god's soul skill isn't strong?"

"...Are you afraid of Blue Silver Entanglement?"

Zhang Lexuan imagined herself fighting a Blue Silver Grass soul master...

Sorry, she could not imagine it at all. She was about to advance to Titled Douluo, while Blue Silver Grass soul masters simply could not cultivate to that level. They were not qualified to stand before her.

"You may leave."

Zhang Lexuan accepted the order and departed.

Next, the various nations, academies, sects, and clans all sent people to Blazing Spirit Academy to learn martial arts cultivation methods and collect Soul Ring manufacturing devices.

The soul beasts took action as well. Countless bloodline samples were delivered, and from then on, soul masters would no longer need to risk their lives fighting to obtain Soul Rings.

As for whether soul masters, no longer needing soul beasts, would become even more unrestrained in hunting them?

Qin Sheng naturally had a solution.

He possessed the strength to sweep across the continent. He could reshape this world according to his own wishes at will. There was no way such a matter could stump him.

In a remote mountain village in the Dou Ling Empire, the villagers were self-sufficient, rarely interacted with outsiders, and lived the most primitive kind of life.

But today, the noble soul master lords who had once existed only in legends set foot here.

"They're going to awaken our Martial Souls? Teach us cultivation methods?"

The villagers were bewildered and could hardly believe it, fearing that the soul master lords had come to toy with them.

Could Martial Souls belong to poor people?

Yet what happened next proved that this was no joke.

Once the awakening work in the village was complete, that soul master told them:

"You should thank His Excellency Qin Sheng. He created the cultivation method that allows everyone to become a soul master, and he made it possible for you to awaken your Martial Souls."

"In the future, when you cultivate to level ten, you can go to Red Mountain City and receive a Soul Ring for free. At that point, you'll be soul masters as well. You'll be able to do more things, eat your fill, and dress warmly."

"Not only will you become soul masters, but your children and grandchildren will become soul masters too."

"Without His Excellency Qin Sheng, you would not be able to enjoy such treatment. He changed the continent and allowed all common people to live better lives."

An elderly man trembled as he asked:

"Where is His Excellency Qin Sheng?"

"He is at Blazing Spirit Academy, in that direction."

The soul master pointed toward where the sun rose.

The old man fell to his knees, tears streaming down his face.

He still remembered the day he turned ten. His parents had saved up some money and brought him into the city with great hope, wanting to have his Martial Soul awakened.

But what awaited them was despair.

The old city lord of Red Mountain City, who had been willing to charge commoners to awaken their Martial Souls, had died. His successor took their money but did nothing.

There was not even an awakening ceremony or awakening crystal. They merely sent out a servant, who glanced at the children, declared that they had no soul power, and left.

"Thank you, His Excellency Qin Sheng..." the old man murmured. The others followed suit, their eyes reddening.

The nobles would never understand how the continent's commoners felt at this moment.

Even the soul master, who had also been born a commoner, was moved. He helped them up and said:

"No need to kneel. His Excellency Qin Sheng said that he hoped all of you could stand."

"Always hold your heads high. Stand facing the sun, and live."

Things like this happened in every corner of Douluo Continent.

Countless people's fates changed because of it. Many were grateful to Qin Sheng, offering their most devout faith. They regarded him as a god, erecting monuments and tablets in his honor.

Others hated Qin Sheng, believing that he had greatly harmed their interests. Why awaken the Martial Souls of those mud-legged peasants and even help them become soul masters?

We nobles are born noble. We are meant to rule this world, but now?

Qin Sheng of Blazing Spirit Academy, look at what you've done!

But the torrent of the times surged onward, unaffected by the will of anyone but Qin Sheng. Before this overwhelming tide, everyone could only drift along with the current.

Endless golden light emerged from around Qin Sheng's body. Faith power, more dazzling than the sun, gathered toward him. He sensed it all one by one, seeing every scene and every person.

The emotions were incomparably intense, and the faith was utterly sincere.

Qin Sheng smiled, a pure smile that carried divinity.

"I help all beings, and all beings help me."

A new ten thousand years arrived. War would no longer rise upon the earth, and the human world would overflow with the fragrance of flowers.
