Body Martial Soul-Eye of Myriad Phenomena!!

Douluo Continent.

Fasinuo Province, Heaven Dou Empire.

Soul Emperor Village, next door to Holy Soul Village.

The village sounded pretty badass, but it had only changed its name to avoid being outdone.

At that moment, a black-haired boy was napping on a small patch of grass at the village entrance, a blade of blue silver grass between his lips.

"Little Mo! Why are you still lazing around asleep? The Lord Soul Master from Spirit Hall is already here!!"

A voice suddenly rang out nearby.

The boy instinctively opened his eyes, his crimson-gold irises dazzling like the sun.

"Grandpa Village Chief, I've been here the whole time. I haven't seen any Lord Soul Master enter the village."

Lin Mo rubbed his eyes and asked with a puzzled expression.

Three years ago, he had taken one extra look at the spectacle of the Heavenly Dog devouring the sun and had been transported to another world, body and all.

He had nearly graduated from university and was getting ready to enter society as a beast of burden.

Who could have known that, in the blink of an eye, his twenty-three-year-old body would turn back into that of a three-year-old child?

Fortunately, Village Chief Old Jerry had happened to pass by, found him, and adopted him.

Otherwise, he probably would have been the shortest-lived transmigrator in history.

"Enter our village? You're the only child here who's old enough! The Lord Soul Master wants you to go to Holy Soul Village next door and awaken with the others!"

Leaning on his cane, Old Jerry hurried over and urged him along.

He pulled Lin Mo straight up from the grass and led him out of the village.

The two villages were not far apart.

Mostly because Soul Emperor Village was simply too small.

Before long, the old man and the boy arrived outside a large wooden building in Holy Soul Village.

Eight children around Lin Mo's age were already standing there.

There was also an elderly man about Old Jerry's age.

And a handsome young man who looked to be in his twenties.

On his chest was the fist-sized character for "soul."

He was clearly a member of Spirit Hall.

But Lin Mo had no interest in any of them.

Instead, he kept stealing glances at a dark-skinned boy.

He was Tang San!!

When Lin Mo first learned that Tang San was the same age as him, he had felt unexpectedly relieved.

As long as Buddha Tang had yet to develop his strength, had not consumed any immortal herbs, and had not awakened his blue silver grass—

Even without a cheat or a system,

Lin Mo still felt confident that he could crush him with his foreknowledge!

Of course, that depended on awakening a decent martial soul and having some innate soul power.

At that thought, Lin Mo turned his attention back to the Spirit Hall member.

"Lord Su Yuntao, our village has only one eligible child this year. Sorry for the trouble."

Old Jerry rubbed his hands together and spoke with an ingratiating smile.

At the same time, he secretly took a silver coin from inside his clothes and tried to slip it to him.

Clearly, this was hard-earned money he had scraped together by scrimping and saving.

"Put it away. Helping children awaken is my job. Whether they can become soul masters depends on their own fortunes."

Su Yuntao pushed the silver coin back and waved his hand in refusal.

After all, he was telling the truth, and he hardly needed that little bit of money.

"Yes, yes. Master Su Yuntao, your integrity is as lofty as the wind and pure as the mountains."

Old Jerry nodded repeatedly, not forgetting to heap on a little flattery.

Beside him, Old Jack, the village chief of Holy Soul Village, curled his lip with a look of contempt and disdain.

"All right, children. Follow me inside."

Su Yuntao clapped his hands and addressed the nine children before him.

But when he spotted Lin Mo, he paused slightly.

Crimson-gold eyes were a rare sight.

Still, he only gave him an extra glance before looking away and turning to enter the wooden building behind him.

The nine children, Lin Mo included, followed him with a touch of nervousness.

Only Old Jerry and Old Jack remained outside, a pair of ill-fated lovebirds arguing over whose village's children would become soul masters.

Inside the wooden building.

Six jet-black stones formed a hexagon, the awakening array already set up.

A blue crystal ball for testing soul power rested on a wooden stand nearby.

"Stand in the center of the array. Whatever happens, don't be afraid."

Su Yuntao motioned for the child at the front to step forward, his voice softening a little.

The boy nodded nervously and slowly walked into the center of the hexagon.

"Lone Wolf, possess!!"

Su Yuntao gave a low shout, and two soul rings, one white and one yellow, appeared beneath his feet.

His body instantly grew to over two meters tall, his muscles bulging and his eyes turning an eerie green.

His appearance gave the children inside quite a fright.

Even Lin Mo could not help feeling a little startled.

After all, this was his first time seeing Martial Soul Possession.

"Don't be afraid. This is my martial soul, lone wolf. If you awaken a beast martial soul, you'll be able to gain the same ability in the future."

After briefly reassuring them, Su Yuntao began pouring soul power into the six Awakening Stones.

Soon, golden light blossomed and enveloped the boy standing in the center of the array.

But when he saw the martial soul appearing in the boy's right hand, he shook his head.

"A tool martial soul, a shovel. Very ordinary. Let's see whether you have any soul power."

Su Yuntao pointed to the crystal ball nearby.

The boy obediently walked over and placed his hand on it.

Unfortunately, it did not light up at all. He had no soul power.

"A tool martial soul, a kitchen knife. Somewhat useful, but unfortunately, no innate soul power. Next."

"A tool martial soul, a broom. A trash martial soul. No innate soul power."

"A tool martial soul, an iron pot. A trash martial soul. No innate soul power."

The announcements came one after another. Almost without exception, none of them had any innate soul power.

Su Yuntao's mood sank into utter gloom.

Over the past several days, he had visited six villages in succession.

Forget awakening a powerful martial soul—he had not even found a single person with level-one innate soul power!

It looked like this year's bonus was going straight down the drain!

Disheartened, he pointed at the second-to-last boy.

"Come here. You're the last child from Holy Soul Village."

"If you don't have a decent martial soul and innate soul power, your village won't produce a soul master this year either."

Su Yuntao spoke flatly, without much hope.

But Tang San still entered the awakening array full of anticipation.

Pale golden light shone once again.

Looking at the blue silver grass in Tang San's hand, Lin Mo instinctively touched his own eyes.

His turn was coming soon.

Aside from turning him back into a child, transmigrating had only changed these eyes of his.

He had gone from black hair and black eyes to black hair and golden eyes.

"Blue silver grass... Innate full soul power!!"

Su Yuntao's voice suddenly rose an octave as he exclaimed.

All the children, including Lin Mo, instinctively looked over.

The crystal ball glittered like a brilliant gemstone.

A faint blue halo spread outward, breathtakingly beautiful!

"Unfortunately, innate full soul power paired with a trash martial soul leaves little room for achievement. Next."

Remembering the blue silver grass the boy had awakened, Su Yuntao shook his head regretfully.

Then he looked at the last child, the one from Soul Emperor Village, and beckoned him over.

Tang San frowned and silently stepped aside.

But his left hand remained clenched into a fist, and he said nothing.

At his words, Lin Mo walked into the array on his short little legs.

"Hah!!"

Su Yuntao once again poured soul power into the six Awakening Stones.

As the light rose, Lin Mo silently closed his eyes and prayed.

Please! Don't let my martial soul be complete trash!!

A warm power flooded into his body.

Dazzling light blossomed inside the wooden building!

Lin Mo felt his eyes burning fiercely!

The increasingly intense pain forced him to open them!!

His eyes, already incomparably radiant,

Now shone more brilliantly than ever!!

Lin Mo could tell with perfect clarity.

He had successfully awakened his body martial soul—Eye of Myriad Phenomena!!
