As Shen Yan finished speaking.
The golden sphere flew out of the Light Curtain and landed securely in his hand.
Shen Yan held up the golden sphere. The openwork patterns on its surface flowed as though alive, and the mass of power at its center pulsed from time to time.
Shen Yan frowned slightly and asked.
"Little Tower, are all the martial souls obtained by absorbing this Random God-Bestowed Martial Soul Origin useful?"
Little Tower's voice rang out immediately.
[Tower Master, the martial soul obtained from a Random God-Bestowed Martial Soul Origin is related to the individual's mindset.] [It is also related to the individual's physical constitution.] [The stronger the physical constitution, the greater the chance of obtaining a powerful martial soul.]
Shen Yan nodded slightly at that.
So that was how it worked.
It wasn't completely random, but tied to his own attributes.
His physical constitution had now been tempered by taking three immortal herbs internally and bathing in a medicinal bath made from eight more.
He could already be called invincible among those of the same rank.
His chances of obtaining a high-grade martial soul should be fairly good.
With a thought, Shen Yan summoned his Conversion Table martial soul into his palm.
He sold the golden sphere in his hand straight into the Conversion Table.
The next instant, the EMC value on the Conversion Table's panel skyrocketed.
[EMC +1,000,000] [Current EMC balance: 2,878,250]
Shen Yan's eyes widened at the million-EMC surge on the panel.
"Holy shit!"
A God-bestowed Soul Ring only sold for 100,000 EMC, yet this Random God-Bestowed Martial Soul Origin had sold for a million!
A full tenfold difference!
Shen Yan took a deep breath, calming his excitement.
With his current EMC, he could only purchase one extra.
With a thought, Shen Yan took another golden sphere out of the Conversion Table.
He stroked his chin, a gleam flashing through his eyes.
"If I put this thing up for auction, it'll definitely be even more sought-after than a God-bestowed Soul Ring."
Although a God-bestowed Soul Ring was precious, it was still only a soul ring.
But a martial soul origin was different.
This thing could give someone an additional martial soul!
People with twin martial souls were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns across the entire Douluo Continent.
If someone could gain another martial soul.
That meant another set of soul skills, another direction for development, and another path to godhood!
However.
Before auctioning it off, he had to absorb one himself.
Shen Yan looked at the golden sphere in his hand, weighing things in his mind.
Although he seemingly had two martial souls.
His Conversion Table martial soul only had a single white soul ring and added nothing to his combat power.
His innate right-hand martial soul had only recently undergone its second awakening in the medicinal pool.
His actual combat strength was pitifully weak right now.
Shen Yan looked at his right hand, which had undergone its second awakening, golden patterns flowing across it.
"If I can get another martial soul related to physical strength."
"Then my limit when absorbing God-bestowed Soul Rings will be even higher!"
Shen Yan hesitated no longer.
He sat down cross-legged on the spot, the golden sphere hovering before his chest.
He slowly guided it into his body with his soul power.
The patterns on the golden sphere's surface began flowing faster.
The mass of attributeless power at its center beat faster and faster, like a heart.
Meanwhile, in Dugu Bo's private room.
He sat cross-legged on the sofa, his soul core already condensed to the size of a thumb.
He exhaled and slowly opened his eyes.
"It's already been a month since I last went to see Yanyan."
"Will that girl be worried?"
The unexpected turn of events had happened rather quickly, leaving him no time to explain the situation to Dugu Yan.
"And my medicinal garden."
"Could that brat Tang San have found it already?"
The more Dugu Bo thought, the more anxious he grew.
He stood and paced back and forth in the private room.
"No, I have to tell Master, then head out for a while."
Muttering to himself, Dugu Bo was just about to go find Shen Yan.
But just then.
Boom!!!
Dark clouds suddenly shrouded the sky above the entire Heaven Dou City.
The dark clouds churned, lightning flashing and thunder roaring.
Streaks of purple lightning darted through the clouds, illuminating all of Heaven Dou City.
A terrifying pressure poured down from the sky.
The entire Heaven Dou City was instantly plunged into darkness.
The powerful figures of the Heaven Dou Empire all flew into the air.
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong were the first to rise.
The three stood in midair, their expressions grave as they watched the gathering storm.
Chen Xin's brows knitted tightly, and he spoke in a low voice.
"Who is making a breakthrough here?"
Gu Rong's expression was solemn as well.
"This pressure is at least at the level of a Limit Douluo!"
Ning Fengzhi said nothing. His gaze fell upon the pitch-black Nine Dragon Tower in the center of Heaven Dou City.
Could it be...
Immediately afterward, Xue Ye, Xue Qinghe, and the Heaven Dou Empire's grand marshal also rose into the air.
Xue Ye looked at the churning dark clouds overhead, his expression grim.
"When did another supreme expert of this caliber appear in Heaven Dou City?"
"Xue Qinghe" stood beside Xue Ye, a gleam flashing through his eyes.
His gaze also fell in the direction of the Nine Dragon Tower.
His intuition told him that this phenomenon had been brought on by the master of that tower!
Shrek Academy.
Tang San and the others had already returned after failing to find Dugu Bo's Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
They were just preparing to rest when they sensed the disturbance in the sky.
They all came to the academy square and looked up at the strange phenomenon overhead.
Ma Hongjun's eyes widened, and he cried out in shock.
"Holy shit, what the hell is happening?!"
Xiao Wu clutched Tang San's arm tightly, somewhat frightened.
Yu Xiaogang stood before everyone and explained in a low voice.
"A phenomenon like this means either a divine artifact has descended, or someone is breaking through to Limit Douluo!"
Limit Douluo!
Those words made everyone present draw in a sharp breath.
Tang San looked up at the sky, involuntarily clenching his fists.
At Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the three education commissioners, Yu Tianheng, and the others also gazed up at the sky.
Outside the Nine Dragon Tower, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling stood arm in arm, looking at the sky in shock.
"Yanyan, look! How did the weather change so suddenly?"
Outside Heaven Dou City, Tang Hao stood atop a large tree.
He looked gravely into the sky, wondering just who had broken through.
But none of them knew.
Behind this phenomenon, in the boundless void.
An eye was looking through the dark clouds, watching everything on the Douluo Continent.
Stars spanning the ages were reflected in that eye, with chaos energy swirling around it.
An indifferent voice came from the void.
"The Douluo Continent..."
"Somewhat interesting."
"Then I'll lend you a little of my power."
As the words fell.
A brilliant beam of golden light shot out from the dark clouds.
Like a pillar holding up the heavens, the golden light descended from the sky and enveloped the Nine Dragon Tower.
On the surface of the Nine Dragon Tower, the nine dragon statues let out a dragon's roar in unison.
The tower shook violently.
Inside the Cultivation Room on the top floor of the Nine Dragon Tower.
Shen Yan was immersed in absorbing the martial soul origin.
Suddenly, a terrifying power surged in from outside.
Shen Yan's eyes snapped open!
A figure in white stood before him.
The figure had the appearance of a white-haired youth.
Behind him, a Heavenly Emperor Avatar faintly emerged, looking down upon the myriad ages.
The youth looked at Shen Yan and spoke softly.
His voice seemed to come from ages past, distant and weathered.
"My name is Huang!"
