Martial Soul Awakening-True Self!

Under Qian Renxue's stimulation, the martial soul that had remained dormant erupted like a wild dragon breaking free of its shackles, unstoppable once unleashed!

Chen An felt the power of his hidden martial soul steadily seep out from the deepest recesses of his body.

At first, that power was only a faint ripple, but as time passed, it grew stronger and stronger until it finally began to boil!

It was like water heating in a kettle, forcing the lid open and gushing out!

Chen An heard a sharp crack. Something inside his body shattered, and the power within broke through its bottleneck. No longer restrained, it surged through his entire body.

In an instant, gold and silver energy billowed out of Chen An's body and enveloped him, illuminating the dim hall as brightly as day.

Chen An stood quietly where he was, his eyes tightly shut.

The gold and silver power shimmered with radiant colors, eventually transforming into an enormous humanoid phantom that slowly took shape behind Chen An.

That enormous humanoid phantom was none other than an enlarged version of Chen An himself!

Unlike Chen An, however, the phantom's body was golden, while only its hair and eyes were silver.

At that moment, Chen An abruptly opened his eyes, and his soul power erupted with a thunderous surge!

His originally black pupils were now suffused with a layer of silver light.

An unmistakably powerful spiritual fluctuation emanated from them, making Chen An's eyes appear almost illusory.

Beside him, Qian Renxue watched his martial soul awakening, her pupils trembling violently. Her soft, rosy lips parted slightly in shock.

"This soul power—level ten, innate full soul power!

"And his spiritual power is actually stronger than mine! It's at least comparable to a Soul Elder's.

"What martial soul has Chen An awakened to possess such an imposing presence? It actually feels every bit as powerful as my Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul!"

While Qian Renxue stood stunned,

Chen An remained where he was, his mind wholly immersed in his newly awakened martial soul.

The instant his martial soul awakened, Chen An knew what it was.

His martial soul was himself—or, more precisely, his true self!

On the Douluo Continent, there was a type of martial soul that anyone could potentially awaken: a part of the human body, known as a body martial soul.

Among body martial souls, the more important the body part, the greater its potential.

Simply put, martial souls consisting of indispensable organs such as the brain or heart were undoubtedly more powerful than those consisting of hair, hands, or feet.

The True Self Martial Soul Chen An had awakened encompassed his entire body, making it unquestionably more powerful than body martial souls such as the heart or brain.

Even in the renowned Body Sect, only its sect master, Du Busi, possessed a martial soul that was his own body. It was indisputably a body martial soul of the highest caliber!

Moreover, Chen An's True Self Martial Soul encompassed not just his physical body, but his brain as well—in other words, his spirit! It was even more powerful than the martial soul of Du Busi, the Body Sect's sect master!

My true self? Both spirit and flesh... it really is far more powerful and perfect than I expected.

Chen An murmured inwardly, the corners of his lips lifting slightly as he lowered his head to look at his clenched fists. He had never felt better.

After awakening his martial soul, Chen An felt boundless power filling his body.

His skin had changed from wheat-colored to fair, becoming lustrous, glossy, and exceptionally tough. His muscles and bones had also become denser.

His internal organs, limbs, and bones had grown stronger, while his meridians had become sturdier and wider.

His mind had also become clearer, as though he had entered a state of flow. The world appeared clearer than ever through his senses, like a severely nearsighted person putting on glasses.

The feeling... was indescribably wonderful, as though his life itself had evolved, transforming from ordinary to extraordinary, becoming something remarkable!

Chen An took a deep breath. The soul power in his dantian circulated through his meridians, nourishing every part of his body and leaving him warm all over.

Excitement filled Chen An, his joy plain on his face.

Who could awaken such a powerful martial soul without feeling excited? Who could fail to be happy?

Even Chen An, who had lived two lives, was no exception.

After all, on the Douluo Continent, the dividing line between people was not the amniotic fluid they were born in, but the martial soul they awakened and how much innate soul power they possessed.

How could Chen An not understand what awakening the highest-caliber True Self Martial Soul meant?

In Chen An's eyes, his True Self Martial Soul was even more powerful than true dragon and true phoenix martial souls.

It meant he had the potential to reach the pinnacle of the Soul Master World and become a Limit Douluo. It meant that, as long as he did not die prematurely, he would surely become a supreme powerhouse who commanded the winds and clouds!

In that moment, the ambition in Chen An's heart fully took shape.

He would keep climbing. He would stand upon the highest summit, look down upon all living beings, admire the magnificent scenery, and receive the reverence of countless people.

Then he would become a god and live forever! Undying and indestructible!

The first step on the road to the summit—awakening his martial soul—was complete!

Next, he needed to hunt a soul beast and absorb his first soul ring!

Chen An's eyes gleamed. Having settled on his dream and his immediate next steps, he calmed his excitement and joy and withdrew his martial soul.

As the phantom of his True Self Martial Soul vanished behind him, the fluctuations of soul power and spiritual power around Chen An subsided as well.

Beside him, Qian Renxue's beautiful, large golden eyes scanned Chen An like laser beams, examining him from top to bottom, head to toe, leaving no angle unchecked.

She seemed intent on determining exactly what kind of martial soul he had awakened.

In Qian Renxue's era, body martial souls had yet to rise to prominence, so she naturally could not identify Chen An's awakened martial soul as one.

As far as Qian Renxue knew, the martial souls of the Douluo Continent fell into two main categories: Beast martial souls and tool martial souls.

Yet Chen An's martial soul manifested as a humanoid phantom behind him. It clearly belonged to neither category, and instead resembled her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Qian Renxue asked, "Chen An, what martial soul did you awaken?"

Chen An smiled. "My martial soul is called True Self. In other words, it's me."

"Yourself?!" Qian Renxue was startled. She had never imagined that someone's martial soul could actually be their own self. This had truly broadened her horizons.

As Qian Renxue looked at Chen An, her desire to recruit him grew even stronger.

He was a genius with innate full soul power and extraordinary potential. In the future, he would surely break through level 90 and become a mighty Titled Douluo.

If she did not bring him under her command while he was still young, doing so once Chen An became powerful would be difficult.

Qian Renxue was confident that, with her strength, talent, and knowledge, winning over a sheltered six-year-old village child would be as easy as turning her hand.

Qian Renxue went straight to the point. "Chen An, congratulations on awakening your soul power. However, you lack resources and a teacher's guidance.

"So, would you be interested in following me? I can teach you advanced meditation methods and guide your cultivation. With me teaching you, you'll surely become a powerhouse!"
