Chapter 3: The Awakening of the Martial Soul

Winter goes to spring and comes again, the four seasons turn, and in the blink of an eye, six years are fleeting.

Located in the center of the Ming capital, the imperial city is surrounded by golden glazed tiles that shine brightly in the sunlight.

From a distance, the renovated palace is more magnificent than ever, solemn and solemn, with beautiful patterns carved on the red wall more than 10 meters high, and the pointed roof, which is the style of ancient Chinese court architecture.

In the depths of the palace, a palace that is usually remote and quiet, but it is quite lively and noisy at this time, because today is the day of the unified awakening of martial souls, and this is the palace dedicated to the awakening of martial souls.

Xu Lanqing stood quietly to the side, followed by two guards shrouded in bright armor.

Although he is only six years old now, he can be said to have perfectly inherited the excellent genes in the blood of his mother and father in terms of appearance. With black hair hanging down on her shoulders, her handsome face reflecting the morning light, and her complexion being fair and delicate, most women couldn't help but be jealous when they saw it, and they couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch it.

Unlike Xu Lanqing who came alone, almost all the children who came were accompanied by their father or mother, after all, the awakening of the martial soul is a big event, related to the future of their children, no parent will not care, although it is useless for them to come, what should be awakened or awakened, but no matter where they are, wishing for their son Jackie Chan is a common idea shared by every parent.

On the other side of the front of the hall, a group of children were huddled and playing, and it could be seen from the standing position that the leader was a little handsome looking little girl, and also the youngest daughter of the current emperor, Xu Lanqing's half-sister, Xu Tianzhen.

Xu Tianzhen was wandering around with a group of followers, looking like an eldest sister, she glanced at her eyes and saw Xu Lanqing standing next to her, and walked directly towards him.

"Xu Lanqing, why are you here alone, follow my sister and me to play."

Xu Tianzhen lined up his chest, and his immature voice sounded.

Xu Lanqing looked at her and smiled, her short black hair was soft and fluttering, and she looked more like a boy than herself.

"I'm older than you, you should call me Brother Huang."

Xu Tianzhen was stunned for a moment, then raised his white and tender little fist, and pouted: "I don't care, let's fight, whoever wins is the biggest." ”

"If you want to fight so much, aren't you afraid of being served by your mother's bamboo board again?" Xu Lanqing said and snorted at a beautiful woman in palace clothes not far behind her.

Xu Tianzhen suddenly went down like a frosty eggplant, she was pampered in the palace, and what she was most afraid of was her mother, every time she came home from a fight outside, she would be given a beating, although she always remembered to eat or not.

Xu Tianzhen's eyes rolled, he thought about it, and said confidently: "Then I will fight when I get the soul ring in the future, it won't be interesting to fight now, you just wait to call me sister!" ”

"Okay, it's up to you." Xu Lanqing shrugged his shoulders and said perfunctorily.

"Okay, since everyone is here, let the children come in and awaken the martial spirit, and the rest of the people wait outside with peace of mind."

The sound of soul power spread throughout the audience, and the scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at the entrance of the temple.

An old figure appeared there at some point, tall and tall, with white hair combed meticulously, this is the person in charge of this martial soul awakening, a royal family elder.

All the children quickly lined up and followed the clan elder into the hall in an orderly manner.

Xu Lanqing was the last to enter, and he looked around. The main hall is extremely clean and simple, without any decorative embellishments, only the center is placed in charge of the awakening circle, and the stone walls on all sides are carved with murals, he took a look, and it is all about the important history of the Sun and Moon Empire.

It's been six years since he came to this world, and under the influence of the royal family, he has learned all the knowledge he can basically know.

"Alright, which of you will come first?"

After fiddling with the magic circle, the clan elder said with a kind smile.

"I'll come first!"

Xu Tianzhen stood up and couldn't wait to walk into the magic circle.

"Close your eyes, be calm, don't be nervous, and follow your heart's call."

The clan elder commanded her, raised her right hand, and eight soul rings of two yellow, two purple, and four black appeared, and an orange-red ball of light rose, which was the inheritance martial soul of the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire, the sun.

The Sun Martial Soul, Zhigang Zhiyang, is the top martial soul on the continent, even if it is not the ultimate fire, but it is not much different, the Sun and Moon Royal Family is relying on it to stand on the continent and has not been replaced by the dynasty.

Xu Lanqing suspected that the martial soul of the Sun and Moon royal family might be flawed, otherwise, using the sun as the martial soul was actually not the ultimate fire, which was a bit unreasonable.

Under the control of the clan elder, Xu Lanqing only felt very comfortable under the light of the sun martial spirit, which showed that the clan elder's strength was not bad.

The golden light enveloped Xu Tianzhen's whole body, and under the traction of the clan elder, she raised her right hand, and a small orange-red light condensed out, not surprisingly, it was the Sun Martial Spirit that she awakened.

"Here, test your soul power."

The clan elder took out a blue crystal ball in his left hand and handed it to Xu Tianzhen.

Xu Tianzhen put his hand on it, and the crystal ball suddenly flashed with a blue halo, and a number nine appeared on the surface of the crystal ball.

"Innate soul power, level nine."

Innate soul power, representing a person's cultivation potential and speed, the higher the innate soul power, the higher its future achievements, the ninth level of innate soul power, has surpassed the vast majority of people.

Xu Tianzhen walked in front of Xu Lanqing with a smile: "How about it, follow my sister, my sister covers you!" ”

Xu Lanqing smiled and shook his head: "Congratulations." ”

"Hmph." Xu Tian's cute little brows furrowed, and he stepped aside, indicating that he didn't want to pay attention to him.

"Next ......"

"Continue ......"

Soon, a total of more than twenty children had awakened, except for Xu Tianzhen, the highest innate soul power among them was only level eight, and nothing special happened.

Xu Lanqing stood in the magic circle, feeling a little apprehensive, but he didn't worry too much, after all, whether it was the royal family's sun martial soul or his mother's ice crystal butterfly, they were all powerful top-level martial spirits, no matter which one he awakened, it would not be bad, he only prayed that no accidents would happen.

The golden light gradually penetrated into his body, and Xu Lanqing felt it with his heart, first of all, warm soul power began to emerge in his body. After a while, this soul power became cold, but he did not feel uncomfortable, the biting cold was unexpectedly released, and fine ice slag continued to condense and fall in the air, forming a thin layer of ice on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Lanqing felt a strange itch in his back, as if there were thousands of ants crawling and dancing behind his back, and he couldn't help but scratch it with his hands.

In the outside world, when the chill appeared, the clan elder felt shocked, followed by excitement and surprise. You must know that the main hall is filled with the light of his Sun Martial Soul, and he can be affected by the cold under the strength of his Contra Douluo, which shows that his Martial Soul is not as good as Xu Lanqing, he has been suppressed, and who else can suppress the Sun Martial Soul except the Extreme Martial Soul, the Ultimate Martial Soul, it has never appeared in the records of the Sun and Moon Empire, and it will be born in his hands today.

The patriarch looked at Xu Lanqing, Xu Lanqing's body trembled, and then, with a "bang", the clothes behind him were shattered, and a pair of ice-blue crystal wings stretched out from it, refracting dazzling brilliance in the light of the sun, his originally dark eyes and hair also turned ice blue, and behind him, the ice-blue phoenix phantom flashed.

"Extreme Ice, Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, God bless the sun and moon, hahaha!"

The chill subsided, Xu Lanqing's eyes turned back into pitch black and were full of excitement, but he didn't expect it to be the Ice Phoenix Martial Spirit mutated by the Ice Crystal Butterfly.

At this moment, Xu Lanqing felt as if it wasn't over yet, because a second soul power appeared in his body.

"Huh?"

The clan elder looked at Xu Lanqing, who was standing still, as if he had noticed something, and he waved his hand at Xu Tianzhen's group of children, and his tone was hurried.

"Now that you have awakened the martial soul, you should go back quickly, your parents are probably in a hurry."

As he spoke, he used his soul power to send them out of the main hall, blocked the surroundings, and looked at Xu Lanqing with a fanatical expression.

"It's not just the ultimate martial soul, it's actually a twin martial soul, it's really God bless the sun and the moon!"

Xu Lanqing continued to stabilize his mind and let his second martial spirit appear.

This time the soul power was filled with a sense of destruction, an urge to wantonly destroy, wanton and indulge in his mind, but with the purple dragon-shaped phantom that appeared behind him, this effect disappeared in an instant, his fingers became sharp, layers of purple illusory dragon scales appeared on his white skin, and his eyes also became the vertical pupils of the dragon clan.

"Okay, good, Zihuang Sky Destroying Dragon, and the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex belong to the same top martial soul of the true dragon class, mutated from the Sun Martial Soul, if I remember correctly, the third prince Xu Tianran awakened is also this martial soul."

The clan elder was laughing so hard next to him that he couldn't close his mouth, with such talent, he seemed to have seen how strong the Sun and Moon royal family would be in the future.

Suddenly, a sudden mutation, a golden dragon shadow appeared in the sky, entangled in the purple dragon shadow, and then, under the stunned eyes of the clan elder, he bit the purple dragon shadow in one bite, and then swallowed it directly, this scene, shocked the clan elder speechless, and he didn't know what was going on.

The illusory dragon scales on Xu Lanqing's body also quickly turned from purple to gold, but there were still purple dragon patterns shining on the golden scales that were full of destruction.

In his spiritual sea, a prismatic golden crystal echoed the dragon shadow of the outside world, and at the same time, the aura of violent killing constantly collided with his consciousness.

"It's not good, Lan Qing, your martial soul awakening has broken the balance between me and it, and now the teacher can only try to seal it as much as possible, fortunately it is just an energy crystal nucleus that is not consciously controlled, otherwise just with the weak divine sense of the teacher now, there is really no way to take it."

Electrolux's old and majestic voice directly echoed in Xu Lanqing's spiritual sea, and then, the gray air flow rushed out from the beads and turned into mysterious runes, connecting into a piece, surrounding the golden crystal nucleus, not to be outdone, violently colliding, and the two were deadlocked.

Seeing this, Electrolux muttered an obscure incantation.

Xu Lanqing could only grit his teeth to support, he felt that his head was going to explode, but he didn't want to become a monster who could only kill, so he could only persevere.

"Teacher, is it almost all right, I'm about to ...... Can't hold it! ”

In the sea of spirits, as Electrolux's words landed, the gray beads shrank visibly with the naked eye, and the golden crystal nucleus was already covered with gray chains, the crystal nucleus gradually calmed down, and the golden dragon shadow in the outside world also merged into Xu Lanqing's body and disappeared.

"It's finally good, but now you can't use your second martial spirit, otherwise the seal may be loosened again, and when the time comes, we will all die."

Electrolux breathed a sigh of relief, his voice unusually weak.

When Xu Lanqing heard this, he couldn't hold it anymore, his eyes were dark, and he fainted directly.
