In the private room of a restaurant not far from the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Mengqi was sitting opposite Fang Tangjing.

Although the table in front of him was full of sumptuous wine and food, Lin Mengqi had no appetite, as if these wine and food did not exist, and he didn't even look at it.

"What is your identity in the Fang family, and what is your status?" Lin Mengqi stared at Fang Tangjing, her eyes full of scrutiny, of course, she didn't use her special function at the moment.

In fact, after she was hit and injured by Lin Yan, it became difficult to cast the "Psychedelic Phantom", at least the effect would be greatly reduced, because it was very draining, so she didn't use it on Qin Shaoyou.

"Are you doubting that I said that life has no weight?" was questioned by Lin Mengqi, although Fang Tangjing was very unhappy, he controlled it very well and did not get angry.

"I don't want to talk nonsense with someone who just talks about it. Lin Mengqi's tone was very cold.

"My uncle is the patriarch of the Fang family, my father is the Great Elder, and my participation in this quota competition is purely to warm up for entering the Cliff Blessed Land, haven't you noticed that as long as it is my opponent, without exception, they will leave the field easily!" Fang Tangjing was very confident and proud.

"Then why did you choose me?"

"Because we have taken a fancy to your talent, and you are not only from a low background in the Lin family, but also have never been cultivated by the Lin family, besides, even if the Lin family attaches great importance to you, what can they give you?"

Fang Tangjing smiled faintly, he had already noticed Lin Mengqi, but he didn't only like Lin Mengqi's beauty like Qin Shaoyou, but her talent.

A beautiful girl with such a talent as Lin Mengqi will sooner or later be favored by other families, so he must strike first, so as soon as he received the token, he waited for Lin Mengqi outside the City Lord's Mansion, wanting to invite her to join the Fang family.

And the conditions he offered also made Lin Mengqi quite tempting, in addition to providing her with a large number of cultivation resources, what attracted her was the quota to participate in the township examination, so the two decided to talk seriously.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch, tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Hehe, it's easy to talk to smart people!" Fang Tangjing smiled again, and was quite satisfied, "First, if you join our family, you must leave the Lin family from now on and no longer have anything to do with the Lin family......;

"Will you allow me to join the sect?" Hearing this, Lin Mengqi was quite surprised, if she was allowed to enter the sect, wouldn't the Fang family be empty.

"Of course, if you can be selected by a certain sect, it will also be the glory of our family, and our family will be rewarded by the sect because of this, isn't this a win-win situation?"

"Then you're not worried that I'll leave your Fang family from now on?"

"Hehe......" Fang Tangjing smiled again, his smile was very confident, and it was also a little mysterious, "I'm afraid you won't know, our family is an ordinary secular family, we are actually a branch family under Lin Yan's Eagle Pavilion, in the Flying Eagle Pavilion, our family is also a big family, and the genius disciples in the clan are like clouds." ”

"Since your family has so many geniuses, why do you want to recruit me to join. ”

"It's not a secret, our family is also looking for talented geniuses for the Flying Eagle Pavilion in the secular world, and do you think that everything will be fine if you join the sect, the real situation is definitely not what you imagined, in fact, don't look at how beautiful you are in the secular world, but when it comes to the cultivation world, especially the five major sects, you are at best just the most ordinary outer disciples, and you have to fight hard to get any resources, and you will be bullied and suppressed by other disciples of the sect at any time. ”

"This would be like this!" Lin Mengqi was taken aback, she had previously taken it for granted that as long as she was selected by any sect, she would get unimaginable resources and cultivation in the sect.

And Fang Tangjing's words completely subverted her cognition.

Fang Tangjing saw the surprise in Lin Mengqi's heart, and he continued proudly: "But if you join our family, the situation will be very different, since our Fang family has a strong foundation in the Flying Eagle Pavilion, it will never let you be buried, now you should understand what I mean!"

Lin Mengqi nodded, and immediately understood this truth, if there is no backstage, even in the sect, it is no different from her in the Lin family.

Fang Tangjing's meaning was to let her enter the Flying Eagle Pavilion, and their Fang family would cover themselves.

"And what?" she continued, "since there is already a first and a second, what is the third?"

"The third is related to this cliff blessed land, as for the specifics, after entering, you will be clear. ”

Fang Tangjing obviously had reservations, perhaps because it involved confidentiality, he didn't tell Lin Mengqi for the time being, and Lin Mengqi didn't continue to ask, she knew very well that since the other party didn't say it, it was pointless to ask.

After negotiating, the two walked to the Dai family together, and Lin Mengqi also decided to completely break away from the Lin family at this moment.

As for Lin Long, or the teenagers who were confused by her and took the initiative to admit defeat, even the entire Lin family was not surprised, and they were all left behind by her.

————

At the same time, in the small courtyard in the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Yan did not perfunctory the world, and first helped him find out if he had a star soul.

The star soul is born in a person's soul, and it can only be discovered by exploring a person's mud pill palace, because the human soul is in the mud pill palace, and it is also in the center of a person's eyebrows.

A trace of spiritual power slowly flowed in the meridians of the prince, and little by little entered the mud pill palace of the prince.

Soon, he discovered that in the sea of consciousness of the prince, a vague shadow appeared and disappeared from time to time, and he couldn't "see" what it was, and even the outline was difficult to determine.

This seems to be a star soul, but Lin Yan can't be sure, this situation is normal, in his previous life, he also heard that many people with star souls can't sense the aura of the stars for a long time, and they can't communicate with the stars, this situation is also known as "the star soul can't awaken itself".

In fact, this kind of situation is a common phenomenon in the Xuantong Heavenly Domain, but these people are not without the opportunity to awaken the star soul, they need to be helped by people of a special profession to have the opportunity to become spiritual cultivators.

This special profession is the "Soul Master"!

Lin Yan judged that it was very likely that this was the case for the prince, but he was not a soul master.

"Qi Tian, in his sea of knowledge, I found a vague shadow, is that a star soul?"

"I'm not sure for sure, but it's easy to find out the results in a way. ”

"Oh, are you a soul master?" Lin Yan was quite surprised.

"You kid also know the soul master, yes! Uncle I am indeed a soul master, you are also lucky, you know, in the Xuantong Heavenly Domain, how noble a soul master is, what alchemist, refiner, or seal master, in front of the soul master, it is a vegetable, no matter which family or power, will be like the ancestors to offer the soul master. ”

"I know a little about this, but as far as I know, it is extremely difficult to become a soul master, so the scarcity of soul masters is like dinosaurs, and even many people think that soul masters are extinct. And how did you become a soul master?"

"Don't take the opportunity to trick me, you kid, just ask me directly, what conditions are needed to become a soul master!"

Qi Tian is worthy of being an old monster at the ashes level, and he doesn't even need to think about it to know Lin Yan's little Jiujiu.

"Hehe, it's not a secret!" Lin Yan was slightly embarrassed, because he really had this idea.

"Uncle can tell you this later, because it is meaningless to tell you now, but now I can teach you a method of exploration, called 'Enlightening Star Technique', this method has no other purpose, it can only be used to detect the star soul. ”

Lin Yan was overjoyed, "Then don't you pass it on to me soon!"

"Boy, then what do you do to honor my uncle?" Qi Tian also seized the opportunity to "blackmail" Lin Yan.

"Of course it's my spiritual power, what else do you need besides this thing now?" Although Lin Yan's spiritual power is not as much as he wants, he is not short of it at present, so it is not very painful.

"Actually, your spiritual power is of limited value to me, and what I need most is a natural treasure that can replenish my soul. ”

At the beginning, Qi Tian didn't know that Lin Yan was a spirit pill master, so he just asked for spiritual power, but when he found out that Lin Yan could refine the pill, his mind became active, and now is a good opportunity, how can he miss it.

"I can promise you this, but I obviously can't do it at the moment. ”

"Then it's a word!" Qi Tian was not verbose, and immediately reached an agreement with Lin Yan.

Naturally, he wasn't worried that Lin Yan would break his word and get fat, because what he had here was something that attracted Lin Yan to take the bait, not to mention anything else, just his identity as a soul master was enough to tie Lin Yan firmly.

In fact, it is true, when Lin Yan knew that this guy was a soul master, and the level might not be low, he realized that Qi Tian's "gold content" was terrifying!

Because he himself desperately needs a soul master.

Qi Tian was very simple, and immediately transmitted a strange message to Lin Yan's sea of consciousness through a trace of soul power.

Now he and Lin Yan can be said to be both prosperous and lossy, which both parties already know.

However, Lin Yan was not defenseless because of this, in the sea of knowledge, he concentrated all his soul power to "stand by", as long as Qi Tian did the slightest misdeeds, he would kill the killer and strangle Qi Tian's soul power.

In fact, it was completely superfluous for him to do this, even if Qi Tian hadn't really recognized him as the master, Qi Tian didn't dare to make any murderous moves, because in Lin Yan's sea of knowledge, there was a terrifying thing, and any external force or soul that tried to harm his soul would be ruthlessly devoured.

That thing was the "Soul Eater Demon Bell" that had subdued the Demon Venerable! It's just that Lin Yan himself didn't know it yet.

However, when Qi Tian probed his soul power into Lin Yan's sea of consciousness, he faintly felt that there was a terrible thing secretly peeping, and without Lin Yan using his soul power to drive it away, his trace of soul power quickly fled.

What the hell is that, and why is it so terrifying!

Retracting his soul power, Qi Tian was afraid for a while, if he stopped for a while, or hesitated a little, I am afraid that that trace of soul power would be ruthlessly devoured by that thing, and this result would naturally cause his already weak soul to be hit hard again, which would undoubtedly be worse for him.

There is still such a terrifying existence in this kid's soul, it seems that he really has a great background!

At this moment, Lin Yan didn't know what Qi Tian was thinking, he had already begun to read the "Morning Star Formula" seriously.

"That's a good thing!"

In a short time, he fully comprehended the essence of this method and carefully experienced it.

"Hehe, you understand now, with me by your side, how much help you will get!" Qi Tian didn't forget to boast about himself, because just now, he had already decided to "follow Lin Yan"!

Because in addition to that terrifying existence, he also "accidentally" saw another thing, that is, Lin Yan's star beads!

No, not one, but two!

It was two star beads! This made Qi Tian reaffirm one point, that is, why that being would let him recognize Lin Yan as the master.

As for Lin Yan himself, so far, he doesn't know that he has many secrets. And at this moment, he has completely mastered the use of the "Morning Star Technique".

In fact, it is not difficult, it is to send a trace of star aura into the sea of knowledge of the son of the world through his soul power, if the vague thing in the sea of knowledge of the son of the world is really the star soul, then it can touch this thing and react.

Otherwise, there will be no reaction.

If this vague thing in the Sea of Consciousness is really a star soul that has not yet awakened, then it can only be verified through this method.

Although the principle is very simple, the implementation is comparable to ascending to the sky, because the most difficult thing is precisely how to use the power of the soul to capture the aura of the stars.

Fortunately, Qi Tian completely taught him the Morning Star Recipe without reservation, and at this moment he was already in his chest, took a deep breath, and released a trace of soul power, and began to operate the Morning Star Technique, and soon, his trace of soul power captured the star aura little by little.

What a hassle!

Sighing secretly, he didn't delay, and immediately continued to the next step......

The whole process of transporting the little bit of star aura captured to the sea of knowledge of the prince of the world was quite time-consuming, and after an hour, Lin Yan finally completed it.

However, he is far from being the time to relax, because according to the tips of the "Enlightening Star Technique", this level also has to be very careful, if you are not careful, not only will the soul of the prince be invaded by the aura of the stars, but there may be unnecessary damage, and Lin Yan's own trace of soul power may also be lost.

You must know that this trace of soul power contains a trace of Lin Yan's divine consciousness, which is directly separated from the "consciousness" part of the soul, relative to the part of the soul, once lost, it is equivalent to the "consciousness" being hit hard, and the consequences are tantamount to the soul itself suffering a huge loss.

This is exactly the same situation that Qi Tian encountered just now, so it is definitely not allowed to be sloppy.

Fortunately, Lin Yan's soul itself was strong enough, which made his soul power quite good, and at the same time, he also had a strong control ability, allowing him to safely send a little bit of star aura "carried" by his soul power to the blurred thing.

Everything is in danger!

Immediately afterward, Lin Yan's divine sense "saw" that after the vague thing came into contact with the aura of the stars, it seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly moved, and its appearance seemed to be changing!

Looks like this thing should be the Star Soul!

Lin Yan was quite excited, not because he was excited about the prince, but because he had successfully completed a very important experiment, and if he encountered the same situation in the future, he would have the right way to deal with it.

Immediately afterward, through his divine sense, it was also discovered that the vague mass seemed to shrink, and soon turned into a sphere, but it was still looming, as if it had not condensed.

Subsequently, he consulted Qi Tian again on this phenomenon.

Qi Tian lazily responded: "That thing should be the star soul, that's for sure, hey, but it still can't be awakened, the soul master must use a special secret method to condense it and transform it into star beads, which must also be used by the soul master to help him communicate with the stars, so that he can absorb the star aura independently." ”

didn't wait for Lin Yan to respond, and then said: "I said, if you want to become a soul master, don't even think about it now, as for the reason, I don't bother to say, it's useless to say it." It's the right thing for you to think more about how to improve your strength now!"

Listening to his tone, it was as if he knew Lin Yan's thoughts.

Lin Yan didn't say anything, since he had already helped Shizi check the matter of the Star Soul, he started another task.

A trace of spiritual power has quietly flowed in the meridians of the Son of the World...... Soon, Lin Yan's trace of spiritual power "sneaked into" the dantian without hindrance.

At this time, Lin Yan also looked at Shizi's reaction, fortunately, Shizi had already entered a state of "sleep", and he didn't seem to be aware that a "foreign body" had invaded his dantian at all, and his eyes were still closed and there was no response.

But the next moment, Lin Yan was frightened!

"What's that?"

He almost blurted out, and then transmitted Qi Tian to tell him what he had discovered, and at the same time, as if fleeing for his life, he quickly withdrew his spiritual power, which showed what a terrifying existence he saw just now!

"What do you say, a terrifying monster?" Qi Tian was also shocked!
