Feng Xiaotian didn't say anything more. He took the Soul Bone Soul Bone and went to the side, where he began to absorb it under the protection of the others.
He sat cross-legged on the ground and pressed the blue right leg bone against his right leg.
A cyan light surged from the Soul Bone, gradually enveloping his entire body.
Feng Xiaotian's brows furrowed slightly, and his breathing became steady and long as he focused intently on guiding the energy within his Soul Bone to merge into himself.
Lin Mo gestured for everyone to spread out a bit, giving Feng Xiaotian enough space.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling stepped aside, Huo Wu, Shui Bing'er, and the others also took a few steps back, their gazes fixed on Feng Xiaotian.
It was just a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, and one that was extremely compatible with him. For a five-ring Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone Five-Ring Soul King like Feng Xiaotian, it wasn't even a close call.
As time passed, the azure light around Feng Xiaotian gradually stabilized, and his breathing returned to a normal rhythm.
The absorption process went smoothly without any unexpected issues.
Lin Mo withdrew his gaze and looked at the people around him.
At that moment, everyone else also focused their attention on Lin Mo.
Huo Wu put her hands behind her back, slowly walked up to Lin Mo, tilted her head back, stared intently into Lin Mo's eyes, and asked:
" Lin Mo, what was that ability you just used? The blood aura phantom behind you, and those exploding blood guns?"
Her eyes were full of lust.
The methods Lin Mo just displayed were too astonishing. Those blood arrows accurately killed nearly a hundred Wolf Bandits, and even the leader of the blue Wolf Bandits was pierced through the heart by an arrow.
She had never seen this ability before.
Shui Yue'er, standing nearby, hurriedly added, "And, and, what about the wings on your back?"
When you used these abilities, I didn't see Soul Ring appear under your feet. This shouldn't be Charizard's ability, right?
Her eyes sparkled, and her gaze towards Lin Mo held not only admiration but also undisguised adoration.
Although Shui Bing'er didn't speak, her eyes were also fixed on Lin Mo.
She has a quiet personality and doesn't express her emotions as directly as her younger sister, but her heart is equally full of goodness.
Lin Mo nodded and said frankly, "Those were my Martial Soul abilities, but they were definitely not the abilities of Charizard."
Upon hearing Lin Mo's words, everyone paused for a moment.
In their view, Lin Mo's words were clearly self-contradictory.
Since it's acknowledged as Martial Soul ability, how can you say it's not Charizard's ability? Doesn't a person only have one Martial Soul?
But soon, the usually quick-witted Shui Bing'er seemed to realize something. Her eyes widened suddenly as she stared intently at Lin Mo, and she subconsciously asked:
"Another Martial Soul? You have Twin Martial Souls?!"
Her voice carried obvious shock, yet also a hint of certainty.
She couldn't think of any other explanation besides this one.
Upon hearing this conjecture from Shui Bing'er, Huo Wu and Shui Yue'er were both shocked, as was Zhu Zhuqing was hiding her identity.
However, unlike Huo Wu and Shui Yue'er, Zhu Zhuqing had already guessed this because she had witnessed Lin Mo's actions.
The half-dragon form that Lin Mo displayed in that alley Dugu Manor was beyond the scope of conventional Martial Soul Possession.
Huo Wu's gaze towards Lin Mo completely changed.
Twin Martial Souls? That's a legendary talent!
In the past century, the only known person to possess Twin Martial Souls is Tang San, the son of Clear Sky Douluo.
Shui Yue'er covered her mouth and let out a soft gasp.
Lin Mo nodded, confirming Shui Bing'er's statement.
"Yes, I possess Twin Martial Souls!"
"Like Tang San, the son of Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao, I also possess Twin Martial Souls."
However, unlike his Twin Martial Souls, the Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer, which are both Tool Martial Soul, my two Martial Soul are the External Beast Martial Soul, the Charizard, and my Body Martial Soul."
" Body Martial Soul?"
Huo Wu muttered to herself, "No wonder the sect he founded was named Body Sect. Now I understand a bit."
Her gaze toward Lin Mo became more complicated.
I originally thought Lin Mo was just a prodigy with superhuman cultivation speed, but I never imagined he was hiding something much deeper.
Twin Martial Souls, an eighteen-year-old Seven-Ring Soul Sage, and Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring —these words alone are enough to be shocking, but now they are all combined in one person.
Shui Bing'er, however, stared thoughtfully at Lin Mo's back and asked, "You just said that your wings are also part of your Martial Soul?"
Could it be that your Martial Soul includes wings?
She remembered clearly that the pair of wings Lin Mo had spread out just now were incredibly beautiful, like the feathers of a phoenix.
If this is also part of his Martial Soul, then his Martial Soul is far too special.
Lin Mo simply smiled this time and did not respond.
Seeing this, Huo Wu didn't press further, but instead looked at Lin Mo and asked, "According to Lin Mo, if a limb or a part of oneself can be called Body Martial Soul..."
Then can my Fire Shadow Martial Soul also be called Body Martial Soul? My Fire Shadow is a shadow with myself as its true form!
Her Martial Soul, Fire Shadow, is an extremely rare Mutated Martial Soul that can maximize the power of fire elements.
If Lin Mo's statement is true, then the shadow can also be considered part of oneself, wouldn't that mean it can also be categorized as part of Body Martial Soul?
From this perspective, Lin Mo Mo's Body Sect was an extremely correct choice.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo shrugged. "I can't be sure about that. Your Fire Shadow Martial Soul is too special, even more so than my Full-Body Body Martial Soul in some ways."
Of course, if we were to force a categorization, it could be Sheer Force classified as part of the Body Martial Soul.
Whether a shadow is part of the human body or not, Lin Mo himself was not sure.
However, he was certain that Ghost Douluo Gui Mei Martial Soul could almost certainly be considered a type of Body Martial Soul.
Huo Wu nodded thoughtfully and did not ask any further questions.
Then Shui Bing'er shifted her gaze to Dugu Yan, her eyes sweeping over Dugu Yan, Lin Mo, and Ye Lingling as she looked them over, and said with great emotion:
"It's a good thing we didn't fight against you during the Soul Master Tournament. Otherwise, if you had gone all out, even without you, Lin Mo, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, along with the other teammates, could have wiped out the entire team."
The Jade Phosphor is far too potent, especially against those whose cultivation is inferior to theirs.
She couldn't help but recall Dugu Yan's performance against the numerous Wolf Bandits earlier. Once this super-wide-range Jade Phosphor toxin spread, it would be Nightmare for opponents weaker than her.
Once contaminated with toxins, there is no time to take any effective treatment measures; the body will be Corrosion and turn into blood.
Fortunately, Dugu Yan did not go all out in the Soul Master Tournament. Otherwise, if Dugu Yan, with her cultivation level of Five-Ring Soul King, had used the Jade Phosphor Poison, those opponents with cultivation levels of three or four rings would probably not have fared much better than these Wolf Bandits.
Dugu Yan was very pleased with Shui Bing'er's praise.
A slight smile played on her lips, and a flicker of something passed through her eyes, but like Lin Mo, she didn't respond.
Ye Lingling remained quietly behind Lin Mo, her expression serene, her Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul already withdrawn into her body.
Not long after, Feng Xiaotian, having completed the absorption of the Soul Bone, slowly woke up.
He opened his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and his eyes gleamed with a sharp light.
Amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd, Feng Xiaotian, after sensing it for a while, slowly revealed what he Harvest after absorbing it. "This Soul Bone is extremely compatible with my attributes."
After absorbing it, not only did my movement speed increase, but my physical attributes were also greatly improved, allowing me to absorb a more powerful Soul Ring at the Sixth Soul Ring position.
At the same time, with the help of the Soul Bone, his cultivation level also reached level fifty-nine, just one level away from reaching the bottleneck of level sixty.
He paused, his tone becoming more serious. "This Soul Bone granted me a Soul Skill called Bloodthirsty Berserk. In Bloodthirsty Berserk, my attack speed and defense will both increase by one hundred percent."
But at this point, Feng Xiaotian's tone suddenly became hesitant.
Seeing Feng Xiaotian's expression, Huo Wu couldn't help but scold him, "Don't be so indecisive. Speak up about your concerns, and we'll all give you our advice."
She crossed her arms, looking every bit the boss.
Hearing Huo Wu's words, Feng Xiaotian no longer hesitated and said frankly, "Although the Blood Soul Skill is effective, I cannot be sure whether it can maintain rationality after use."
Furthermore, I cannot use Soul Skill while in a bloodthirsty state.
His brows were furrowed, showing both anticipation and worry about this Soul Skill.
A 100% increase in attack speed and defense is too tempting for anyone to resist.
But if it leads to losing one's rationality and becoming a beast that only knows how to act on instinct, then it's better not to use it at all.
Upon hearing this, Lin Mo said, "Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth. In that case, why don't you just use it and see? Don't worry about it getting out of control."
He looked at Feng Xiaotian and said calmly, "With me here, even if you really lose control, I can subdue you instantly and prevent you from hurting anyone else."
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian nodded in agreement.
Indeed, just as Lin Mo said, even if he really lost control, he probably wouldn't last more than a few rounds against Lin Mo, so there was nothing to worry about.
He knew Lin Mo's strength all too well. Even if he broke through to become Soul Emperor, let alone a Five-Ring Soul King, he wouldn't be able to cause any trouble in front of Lin Mo.
Immediately, as a blue light shone from his right leg, Feng Xiaotian suddenly activated the Soul Skill attached to his right leg bone: Bloodthirsty Berserk!
A blue light instantly enveloped his entire body, his eyes quickly turned red in the light, and his breathing became heavy.
A violent aura rose from his body.
Feng Xiaotian's body trembled slightly, his expression turned ferocious, and a low roar came from his throat.
Just as Lin Mo had predicted, Feng Xiaotian, who was not yet familiar with the Bloodthirsty Berserk skill, lost his mind under its influence on his first use of the Soul Skill.
He let out a low roar, his body surging with azure light, and was about to pounce on Lin Mo.
However, before he could take his second step, a figure appeared behind him.
Lin Mo flashed ahead and appeared behind Feng Xiaotian, reaching out with his right hand and easily grabbing the back of his neck.
No matter how hard Feng Xiaotian struggled, he couldn't break free even a fraction.
In his berserk state, Feng Xiaotian's power surged, his arms whistling through the air as he swung them. But in Lin Mo's hands, he was like a disobedient child, suppressed and unable to move.
He twisted and turned desperately, trying to break free of the hand, but it was like an iron clamp, completely immovable.
In terms of physical attributes alone, there is still a significant gap between him in his Bloodthirsty Berserk state and Lin Mo in his normal state.
Lin Mo did not knock Feng Xiaotian directly. Instead, he released his Divine Slaughter's Domain with a slight thought.
A point of white light emanated from him and spread outwards, instantly enveloping Feng Xiaotian.
The chilling killing intent surged into Feng Xiaotian's body as if it were a tangible substance. That killing intent was too pure and too concentrated, as if it could freeze the soul.
The temperature around them seemed to drop several degrees, and Huo Wu and the others subconsciously shivered.
Stimulated by the chilling killing intent of the Divine Slaughter's Domain, the bloodlust in Feng Xiaotian's eyes quickly faded, and his breathing gradually became steady.
He slowly regained his consciousness, but when he sensed the aura of the Divine Slaughter's Domain emanating from Lin Mo, he was suddenly startled.
How many people must have been killed to accumulate such a terrifying killing intent?
The intensity of that killing intent was so strong that even he, Soul King who had never killed anyone, felt a chill run down his spine.
He felt as if he had just seen a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, and saw countless souls wailing in agony.
Before Feng Xiaotian could voice his doubts, Lin Mo slowly said, "Feel your current state."
Feng Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, then carefully sensed his own body.
A moment later, he was somewhat surprised to find that although he had just recovered from a state of losing his mind, he did not feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he felt a sense of exhilaration.
Lin Mo continued, "According to my speculation, there are two directions to solve the drawbacks of the Bloodthirsty Berserk Soul Skill."
Firstly, once you absorb a Head Soul Bone in the future, greatly enhancing your mental strength, the berserk state will no longer cause you to lose your mind.
Secondly, make frequent use of your own Bloodthirsty Berserk Soul Skill. As your body gradually becomes familiar with this power, and you are able to more accurately control the enhancement brought about by Berserk, you will be able to maintain your rationality during Berserk.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian nodded and thanked Lin Mo again.
Subsequently, Feng Xiaotian deactivated his berserk state.
The moment he released the debuff, he felt a wave of weakness wash over him. However, since he hadn't used it for long, the weakness wasn't very noticeable; his face was just slightly pale, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
The previous bloodlust, combined with the terrifying killing intent that Lin Mo had just exuded, made Huo Wu ask involuntarily:
" Lin Mo, what exactly did you go through to possess such a terrifying level of killing intent and bloodlust?"
Her gaze swept over Lin Mo, taking him in and out.
She simply couldn't understand how Lin Mo, who was not even twenty years old, could possess such a strong killing intent.
That's not something you can cultivate; it's something you accumulate only after a long period of life-or-death battles.
Lin Mo shrugged, not answering directly. "Didn't I just say? That blood energy is just an ability possessed by my Martial Soul."
At this point, Lin Mo began to question the group, "Judging from your behavior just now, it seems like this is your first time killing someone, or rather, killing one of these humanoid creatures? Have you never had blood on your hands before?"
Lin Mo knew that Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had never killed anyone.
With elders Ye Linyuan and Dugu Bo protecting them, no one dares to provoke them.
Huo Wu, on the other hand, widened her eyes, looking puzzled, and asked Lin Mo, "Why do you feel that our hands are naturally stained with blood?"
Lin Mo scratched his head and explained, "I once heard a saying that Soul Master with a cultivation level of Soul King or higher inevitably have several lives on their hands..."
Before Lin Mo could finish speaking, Shui Bing'er slowly interrupted, "Where did you hear that? It's so unreliable!"
Some unruly, unprotected Soul Master might act this way, sometimes even causing deaths over disputes over Soul Ring, Soul Bone, and cultivation resources.
But since we have no need to fight, our hands will remain stained with blood.
"You can't generalize between different Soul Master Soul Master!"
Huo Wu nodded in agreement, adding, "We students of the Four Elements Academy cultivate in the academy from a young age, with teachers protecting us and resources provided. We don't need to compete with others for anything."
Murder is something too far removed from our lives.
Shui Yue'er nodded in agreement, her little face full of seriousness.
Lin Mo chuckled, changing the subject once again, understanding the situation perfectly.
It seems I was overthinking things.
For these geniuses, protected by their families and nurtured by academies, murder is indeed a distant concept.
They only need to focus on their cultivation and improve their strength step by step; they don't need to experience any bloodshed at all.
After waiting for a while, once the young women who had been kidnapped by the Wolf Bandits had rested and regained their strength and composure, some of them chose to leave this place of trouble.
After Ye Lingling's treatment, the women's injuries had healed and their mental state had improved significantly.
They thanked Lin Mo and the others repeatedly, then helped each other and walked down the mountain.
However, before continuing their journey to Vast Sea City, Lin Mo and his group first sent the group to the city closest to their village, so that they could seek the protection of the Dou Empire's officials.
The city wasn't big, but at least the Heaven Dou government was stationed there.
As long as those women report to the authorities and explain the situation, the Heaven Dou government will naturally make proper arrangements for them.
After completing these tasks, Lin Mo and the others embarked on their Pokémon Journeys to Vast Sea City once again.
However, our destination is not far away; it's right in front of us.
Not long after.
Vast Sea City is the largest city in the western border of the Heaven Dou Empire and also the largest coastal city on the Douluo Continent.
It is also the only port city within the Heaven Dou Empire, and a necessary stop for Lin Mo and his group on their way to Sea God Island.
To reach Sea God Island, they must rent a large ship in Vast Sea City and then travel by sea, a journey that will take approximately ten days.
The enormous city was built along the sea, or rather, on a mountain by the sea, and could not be shaken in the slightest by the ebb and flow of the tide.
The thick city walls were definitely of the main city level. Even before entering the city, the group could faintly smell a salty and fishy odor.
We've arrived at Vast Sea City!
Looking at the surrounding scenery, everyone in the carriage couldn't help but stick their heads out and exclaim in amazement.
This was the first time these land-based Soul Master had ever seen the ocean, and Lin Mo was no exception.
Although it wasn't the first time he had seen the sea, it was the first time he had seen the ocean of the Douluo Continent.
The sea breeze carries a salty, damp scent, and in the distance, the sea and sky merge into one, stretching to the horizon.
"So beautiful..." Shui Yue'er couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes sparkling. She leaned against the car window, greedily inhaling the sea-scented air, her face full of excitement.
Possessing Dolphin Martial Soul, she has a great fondness for the ocean.
If we only consider the type of Martial Soul, she can be categorized as a Sea Soul Master.
Huo Wu took a deep breath and smiled, "Is this the ocean? It's even more magnificent than I imagined."
Although Shui Bing'er didn't speak, the light in her eyes betrayed the turmoil in her heart.
Feng Xiaotian stood beside the carriage, gazing at the sea, a look of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
Dugu Yan leaned against Lin Mo and whispered, " A-Mo, are we really going to take a boat from here to Sea God Island?"
Lin Mo nodded. "Mm."
The carriage continued its journey and soon arrived at the city gate of Vast Sea City.
There were guards conducting routine checks at the city gate, but upon seeing Lin Mo's identification token, the guard captain immediately adopted a respectful expression, waved for him to pass, and even offered to send someone to escort him, which Lin Mo politely declined.
Soon, after passing through the routine checks, the group successfully entered their destination, Vast Sea City.
The city streets are wide, lined with shops on both sides, and bustling with people.
Unlike inland cities, shops selling seafood are everywhere here, and the air is filled with the smell of the sea.
Among the crowd walking on the street were many dark-skinned, sturdy men who looked like fishermen or sailors who made their living at sea year-round.
Lin Mo did not make the two disciples of the Breaking Clan wait there, but instead sent them back to Heaven Dou City on their own.
The journey ahead requires sailing out to sea, so there's no point in them staying here; they might as well go back and report.
The two disciples accepted the order and drove the carriage away from Vast Sea City, heading back the way they came.
After a brief discussion, the group decided to rest in Vast Sea City for two days before setting off.
Firstly, Lin Mo planned to take advantage of the next two days to explore Vast Sea City and see if he could buy some local specialties that could only be found in the ocean.
They also wanted to meet the ship and its captain who would be sailing with them, as the journey was long and they needed to get to know each other beforehand.
