Chapter 24 The Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group and Incidents
Two yellow and two purple, the four best-matched soul rings floated around Meng Lang and slowly moved. The yellow soul ring ranked second was shining, and his dark skin was exuding when he was possessed by the martial soul. Special metallic texture.
Looking down at the thousand-year-old swordfish wrapped in dark red crystals at his feet, Meng Lang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
With his soul sect-level cultivation and the powerful black-striped narwhal spirit, a mere thousand-year-old swordfish is naturally not enough to seriously injure him. But if he were to meet the sharp upper jaw of the Millennium Swordfish head-on, he would never feel better.
Looking sideways at Xu Zihuang's indifferent golden eyes, the awe in his heart couldn't help but become even more intense.
His cultivation was nearly twenty levels higher than Xu Zihuang's, but he thought he couldn't subdue the thousand-year-old swordfish in front of him as easily as Xu Zihuang did.
At the same time, there was also a bit of guilt and discomfort.
He promised to protect the young master personally, but he didn't expect that he would let Xu Zihuang come to the rescue.
"Little Lord."
Xu Zihuang gently patted Meng Lang on the shoulder, indicating that he didn't need to pay attention. Meng Lang's height is at least 1.8 meters, while Xu Zihuang, who is only eight years old, can only reach 1.5 meters. Such a slap on the shoulder seemed very strange, but everyone felt that everything was so natural.
"The meat quality of the Millennium Swordfish is no worse than the Millennium Blue Flag Tuna. Let Rongjin come over and take care of it for everyone." Xu Zihuang looked at everyone with a smile and moved the joints of his hands a little. He found that his power seemed to be greater than expected.
"Yes, young master." Everyone responded respectfully, and their attitude towards Xu Zihuang became more and more natural and friendly.
There was also some emotion in my heart.
When they were following Xu Zihuang's father, King Zihuang, who was the powerful prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, often mingled with them. When it comes to Xu Zihuang's generation, it seems to still be the case.
Rongjin, who was informed of this, cut up the tender Millennium Swordfish on the deck with a face full of joy. In the past month, he has not handled such top-quality ingredients for a long time. For him, glory, wealth, and soul cultivation are secondary. His greatest pursuit is to personally make delicious delicacies from those top-quality ingredients.
The belly and tenderloin are made into sashimi and placed neatly on a huge tray covered with crushed ice. The fish head is used to stew the soup, and the other parts of the meat are either fried in butter or grilled over charcoal. Several thousand kilograms of thousand-year-old swordfish were quickly processed by Rongjin.
A group of soldiers from the Emperor Dragon Soul Instructor Corps tasted it with honor. After nearly a month of boring sailing, everyone had a rare moment of relaxation.
Wang Xiao and Yaoyang stood side by side on the observation deck at the top of the main mast, watching this happy scene, but they didn't try to stop it without understanding.
Along the way, everyone is indeed mentally exhausted. There is nothing wrong with getting some proper rest.
With a smile on her lips, Yaoyang suddenly said, "Uncle Wang, have you noticed that Zihuang is like a born superior?"
Wang Yao gave Yaoyang a cold look, feeling quite annoyed that his thoughts had been seen through.
"Yaoyao, I suddenly discovered that the name His Highness gave you back then was indeed correct."
The smile on Yaoyang's face froze, and her soft and fair cheeks turned slightly red. Even when he faced the entire Xihai Soul Instructor Group before, he had never seen him so coquettish.
"Uncle Wang, didn't you agree not to mention this name again..."
This is some ambiguity between the two.
When Yaoyang was rescued from the evil spirit master by Xu Zihuang's father, Xu Zihuang's father mistakenly thought she was a girl because of her feminine face. This is also where the special name Yaoyao comes from.
Wang Yao's implication is that Yaoyang's mind is as delicate as a girl's.
Wang Yao did not continue to stimulate Yaoyang, and Yaoyang also fell silent.
Yaoyao, this is really a nostalgic name.
…
As night fell, the deck was illuminated by several soul lights.
Xu Zihuang sat cross-legged in the middle of the crowd, listening to people telling stories about their youthful deeds one after another. The tasks of guarding the surrounding area are carried out in shifts. Although there was no wine to accompany them, the atmosphere gradually became more intense.
By the early morning of the next day, everyone had returned to their usual solemn state. Because starting from today, we will enter the southern waters of the Sun and Moon Empire. Only through here can we reach Yuenan Islands in the safest way.
Because only this sea area has been explored by humans, the probability of encountering powerful sea spirit beasts and various emergencies is much lower than in those unknown sea areas.
Xu Zihuang sat in front of the table near the wooden bed in the room. On the table were rare metal fragments of different colors. The most eye-catching one is the upper jaw taken from the previous thousand-year-old swordfish.
The upper jaw of this thousand-year-old swordfish is harder than fine iron and is an excellent material for making soul guides.
Obscure and complicated lines shone with golden light around Xu Zihuang's pupils, and in his right hand he held a slender deep purple knife, carving on a piece of dark blue metal.
His movements were fast, but his hand was very steady, and the knife was very steady every time he dropped it. The pen moves like a dragon and a snake, and everything is done in one go.
As the last bit of metal debris fell on the table, complex lines quietly emerged on it.
Xu Zihuang frowned slightly and slowly poured soft soul power into it. Suddenly, the dark blue metal block emitted a dazzling blue-gold light, and the soft halo turned into a beam of light that rose to a height of two feet. The blue halo is straight and firm, not swaying at all. And that piece of metal exudes a transparent blue color.
"The third-level soul power amplifying core array was successful."
Seeing this scene, Xu Zihuang finally relaxed. A smile appeared on his face.
Soul masters with spiritual attributes do have innate advantages in making and using soul guides.
With the spiritual attribute Golden Eyes Martial Spirit, his eyesight is at least several times that of ordinary people. This allows him to avoid many unnecessary mistakes when engraving the core formation. As his mental strength became stronger, he could more easily memorize the complex core formations.
This does not mean that he can now be called a third-level soul master, but since he has successfully carved the third-level core magic circle, the next step is completely natural.
This is also thanks to the solid foundation he laid during his youth and exile on the island.
Putting all the materials on the table into the soul guide ring, Xu Zihuang stood up and moved his body.
He knew very well that going too far was not enough, so whether he was practicing or making soul tools, he adhered to the principle of combining work with rest.
Walking out of the room and onto the deck to feel the warm sea breeze, Xu Zihuang was surprised to find that the sails had been furled and the anchor had been thrown into the sea.
Several soaked soldiers from the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Corps were reporting something to Wang Yao.
Among them were Meng Lang's father, Meng Cang, and Linlong, who had just advanced to Soul Saint.
Meng Cang's martial spirit is the same as Meng Lang's, the black-striped narwhal, while Linlong's martial spirit is the black-scaled dragon shark, a powerful mutant martial spirit.
Because they had officially entered the southern waters of the Sun and Moon Empire, out of vigilance, both of them were sent by Wang Yao to investigate the surrounding situation.
Noticing Xu Zihuang coming towards him, Wang Yao solemnly asked for instructions: "Young Master, this sea area is blocked by the Evil Lord Soul Instructor Group."
"The Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group?" Xu Zihuang raised his eyebrows and his heart sank completely.
The Evil Lord Soul Instructor Group, which is also known as the Hand of Protecting the Country along with the Emperor Dragon Soul Instructor Group, is not comparable to the Xihai Soul Instructor Group and Lan Hai Soul Instructor Group that they encountered previously.
The complete Evil Lord Soul Instructor Group consists of three hundred people, all of whom have cultivation levels above level 40.
The five major soul mentor groups known as the Hands of the Protector of the Country each have their own characteristics. For example, the Emperor Dragon Soul Mentor Group has the strongest overall combat effectiveness, the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group is all composed of female soul masters, and the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group has Everyone is a soul master who is good at speed. When encountering the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group head-on, it is almost impossible to escape. Not to mention that the division leader of the Evil Lord Soul Tutor Group is a genuine ninth-level soul tutor.
"Xu Tianran, you are really good at it."
Without even thinking about it, these were definitely the pursuers sent by Xu Tianran.
"Mr. Wang. What are your plans?" Xu Zihuang raised his head and asked Wang Yao.
Based on his understanding of Wang Yao, he should have taken countermeasures long ago.
Wang Yao and Yaoyang next to him looked at each other, and then the latter said softly: "Zihuang, Uncle Wang and I discussed it. We are going to split into two groups now. I will lead some people to cross this sea area openly. In order to protect me back then, Uncle Zhengxuan didn’t want me to be too conspicuous so as not to be targeted by evil soul masters again, so he never exposed our relationship. I brought this warship with me. These people are all new members like Meng Lang who have joined the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Group. There is no problem of familiar faces. They pretend to be my subordinates and use the excuse of going out to sea to hunt the troublesome sea soul beasts. Those frozen ones in the refrigerator room The evil killer whale meat is just enough to deceive people.”
"The other group of people is led by Uncle Wang. Zihuang, you and them landed directly from the seaside city in the southwest of the empire. The terrain near the seaside city is steep and there are many virgin forests. It is impossible to block every place. It will definitely be difficult for them Come to think of it, you are completely going the opposite way and taking the initiative to enter the territory of the Sun and Moon Empire. Moreover, there is currently a war between the southern part of the Sun and Moon Empire and the Star Luo Empire. You can take advantage of the chaos and enter the territory of the Star Luo Empire, and then take a detour to the Moon Empire. Hub Island.”
"Without further ado, let's do it like this." Xu Zihuang had nothing to hesitate. This is indeed the safest way.
Rather than gambling on whether he would be discovered by the Evil Lord Soul Mentor Group, he preferred the feeling of controlling his own destiny.
I can't stand it any longer. The wisdom teeth have been inflamed for the past few days and the pain has been excruciating. I have been taking anti-inflammatory injections for the past few days and will have them removed the day after tomorrow.
Sorry, updates stopped yesterday.
