Douluo Dalu (Soul Land): Villain Life Simulator

Chapter 10: Chapter 10: Library Pavilion



In the blink of an eye, Su Cheng had been in the Soul City for over ten days, and he had become quite familiar with many of the elders of the Soul Hall.

Especially Yue Guan, the Chrysanthemum Douluo, who liked to come over to learn medical skills from him. Su Cheng was happy to establish a good relationship with him and didn't hold back on sharing many of his research findings.

As a 94th-ranked Titled Douluo, Gu Rong's research on soul was already very profound, which was Su Cheng's weak point. He gained a lot of insights through these exchanges.

It's worth noting that the two strongest individuals in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, were only at the 92nd level.

As for Bibi Dong, after their conversation that day, Su Cheng hadn't seen her again.

But this was also within Su Cheng's expectations.

As the newly appointed Pope, Bibi Dong's foundation in the Soul Hall was shallow, and she was undoubtedly very busy on ordinary days.

This suited Su Cheng just fine.

That woman was extreme in her thinking, strong in her abilities, and her mental pathways were different from ordinary people. If he didn't know about her vulnerability regarding Yu Xiaogang, he would have had a hard time finding a breakthrough point.

During this period, Su Cheng almost always immersed himself in the library.

It must be said that the disparity in strength between factions was really too big.

Information on hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, top-level soul classifications, soul development strategies, self-created soul techniques, and so on, could be found everywhere here, which was hard to come by in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.

Unfortunately, although the library collected information on Titled Douluo from all over the continent, it did not include the Seven Great Elders of the Soul Hall.

Su Cheng remembered that in the Dragon Staff of the Hall of Worship, which belonged to the two elders, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, respectively, there were sealed a Demon-Slaying Dragon and a Saint Golden Dragon.

Undoubtedly, every superpowerful individual who could reach level 95 or above without relying on cheats had their own unique qualities.

And being able to enter the Hall of Worship was even more extraordinary.

Su Cheng extended his right hand, and with a flash of light, a cracked long sword appeared in his palm, with two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, shimmering with a soft halo.

"Inscribing exotic beasts in tool martial souls not only enhances combat effectiveness but also adds more tactical systems. Indeed, it's a good idea, but how is it done? And would there be any other side effects if done so? Like weakening the purity of the tool martial soul in certain aspects?" he pondered silently.

"Whether it's Wu Tian's Hammer or the Seven Kill Sword, both are top-tier tool martial souls that have reached the pinnacle in their respective aspects. But it seems that people who possess these types of martial souls have never attempted to add 'beast attributes' to their tool martial souls. Is it because they can't do it, or they simply don't want to?"

Su Cheng's previous research direction was more inclined towards the human body, with limited knowledge of martial souls. After all, his talent points were invested in medicine.

If he had chosen "True Scholar" as his initial talent, perhaps it would have been more suitable for research.

"Martial souls, beast martial souls..." Su Cheng's face showed signs of contemplation.

Martial souls harbored profound mysteries, and even after countless years of development on the Douluo Continent, the relationship between soul beasts and humans was not as simple as it seemed.

Soul beasts could transform into humans after ten thousand years and could even be offered as sacrifices to humans.

The beastification state after the attachment of beast martial souls, the different influences of inherited martial souls on personality, all were worth pondering.

Yu Xiaogang's so-called martial soul core competitiveness barely scratched the surface.

Su Cheng looked at his broken sword martial soul.

Although its appearance was still unimpressive, full of cracks, in reality, his martial soul, bolstered by the millennium second soul ring, had become extremely resilient.

"My innate soul power is only at the 0.5 level, which is a malignant mutation caused by attribute conflict. But the boost from the millennium second soul ring has been much greater than initially expected. Who knows..."

After all these years, Su Cheng's understanding of the essence of martial souls remained limited, but he had a clear understanding of his own situation.

"Attempting to continuously add extreme attributes to the martial soul with the help of soul rings may have a chance to improve or even reverse this situation."

As for whether it would succeed, he wasn't sure either.

It's extremely difficult for awakened martial souls to undergo changes unless they undergo a bloodline awakening like Tang San with the help of the Blue Silver Emperor, or ingest rare treasures of heaven and earth that are compatible with their martial soul.

Considering the possibility of using the Soul Hall's power to explore the specific location in the Sunset Forest for rare treasures of heaven and earth could be considered for the future, making planning easier after returning to reality."Wow, I've heard about Mr. Su's extraordinary journey despite having only 0.5 levels of innate soul power. Seeing you today, you're truly remarkable," a clear and pleasant female voice came from behind as Su Cheng pondered over martial soul issues. Previously, there was no one else in the library except for himself, browsing through various materials.

Su Cheng turned around to see a young girl with bright eyes, golden hair, and fair skin standing not far behind him, hands behind her back, curiously observing the dual-ringed martial soul in his hand.

Although the girl was young, her exceptional beauty was already evident, causing a slight tremor in one's heart with just a glance.

Perhaps due to the martial soul, Qian Renxue now appeared to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, but her actual age should be a little over nine.

"It's nothing special," Su Cheng replied without putting away his martial soul, continuing with the conversation, "It's just that most people are ignorant, which makes me appear different."

A moment of surprise crossed Qian Renxue's face. Was he really that arrogant?

She hadn't intentionally come here to find Su Cheng. The main factions in the Soul Hall were now divided into two: one led by Bibi Dong, the Pope, and the other by Qian Dao Liu, the Sacrifice. Qian Renxue had always had a distant relationship with her mother, Bibi Dong. During her time in the Soul Hall, she either stayed in the Sacrifice Hall or in the library.

These past few days, with Bibi Dong's permission, she had returned to the Soul Hall. Although she had heard Bibi Dong mention Su Cheng's intention to join the Soul Hall and take on disciples, she hadn't taken it to heart, let alone thought about becoming his disciple. She had come to the library out of habit, to browse through some materials.

Ironically, Su Cheng had mentally prepared himself to encounter Qian Renxue here.

"Hehe, Mr. Su, you sure know how to joke," he turned the tables, leaving Qian Renxue momentarily unsure of what to say.

"What kind of joke am I making with a little girl like you who knows nothing?" Su Cheng glanced at her.

"Even a cultivation waste with a mere 0.5 levels of innate soul power can find a way to surpass the so-called age restrictions. For thousands of years, the Douluo Continent has been treating the absorption time limit of soul rings as a truth. I wonder what they've been eating."This remark really hit hard, especially since it was all true, leaving her unable to refute it.

And to top it off, calling her a "little girl" was like twisting the knife. Even with Qian Renxue's composure and grace, she was starting to feel a bit strained.

She wasn't sure if Su Cheng knew about her identity as the former Pope's daughter and her strength. Even if he did, what could she say now?

He had already admitted that he himself was a cultivation waste, so how could she use that against him?

In the end, she might end up being compared unfavorably to a genius with 20 levels of innate soul power, instead of being a cultivation waste with just 0.5 levels.

While gritting her teeth internally, she could only force a smile and say, "Mr. Su is absolutely right."
