Douluo Dalu: Transforming Soul Rings into Soul Veins

Chapter 177: Chapter 177: Putting On One's Own Brand, But I Was Clearly the One Who Came First!



Half a year later, in the space beneath the Lake of Life.

Lin Feng rubbed his sore waist, looked at Gu Yuena who was still sleeping soundly at his side, and managed to squeeze out a smile.

Is this the strength of a god? It's on a completely different level from other people.

Even relying on his Five Elements Soul Veins and the "Qi" in his dantian, with his endurance and recovery speed far surpassing that of similar soul masters, in an all-out situation, he could only last for three days and three nights under Gu Yuena's assault.

Perhaps it was because it was her first time tasting the forbidden fruit, or perhaps other factors, but Gu Yuena appeared exceptionally excited, as if she wanted to completely envelop Lin Feng in her own body. The nature of the dragon clan was revealed to its fullest at that moment. For three days and three nights, there was not a single moment of relaxation.

Gu Yuena's silver hair was casually spread out. The bedsheet underneath was wrinkled and messy. A simple thin blanket was draped over her body, only able to cover the two peaks and the deep, misty place.

Her exquisite shoulders and large patches of fair, tender skin were thus exposed to the air. Her two long, snow-white thighs were bent and crossed.

A drunken red bloomed on her cheeks. In her slightly tired expression, more charm was revealed. She was like a lazy cat who, after playing to her heart's content, had fallen into a deep satisfaction and ease.

He gently reached out his hand, brushing the silver hair scattered on her forehead behind her ear, revealing that peerless face. Her beautiful eyes were still tightly closed. Gu Yuena's vermilion lips slightly parted.

"You're awake so early? Have you recovered?"

"I'm alright."

Gu Yuena frowned, moving her jade-like leg a little awkwardly. She slowly opened her purple pupils. "Are you leaving?"

"Mmm, the things I needed to do have temporarily come to an end. It's time to go back to the human world for a trip. With me?"

Half a year ago, Lin Feng had self-condensed a Soul Vein for the first time. After confirming that it was possible for a human to self-condense a soul ring, he had put all his energy into the research of self-condensing Soul Veins.

Before Lin Feng's sixth Soul Vein, all his Soul Veins had been shaped by the Innate Treasure Pearl guiding the flow of soul ring energy.

And in the half a year since, Lin Feng and Gu Yuena had jointly deduced, continuously reproducing the process of the Innate Treasure Pearl's energy conversion, transforming it into the Meridian Shaping Method, which was included in the Innate Soul Evolution Art.

Simply put, it was to rely on the route of the art to let the energy in the soul ring continuously circulate in the body, gradually approaching the frequency of a Soul Vein, and then stabilizing it.

In this process, if it were an ordinary soul master, at present, they would still need the assistance of a healing-type soul master at the side to heal the damage brought by the energy flowing in the body.

The method had just been created, after all, and needed continuous improvement. Time would allow the Meridian Shaping Method to be perfected.

In fact, this process was very familiar to both Gu Yuena and Lin Feng. A long time ago, Lin Feng had already mentioned that the soul core and the Soul Veins had similarities. If a person could condense a soul core, then for him, the condensation of a Soul Vein was just lacking the specific knowledge.

The self-condensation of a Soul Vein could be relaxed to at least a level-ten soul master, but the self-condensation of a soul ring required the soul master to have at least five Soul Veins and an extremely deep comprehension of the laws.

To relax the requirement again, so that one could self-condense from the very start as a soul master, was something Lin Feng was still exploring.

Lin Feng had also discussed this issue with Gu Yuena. If the self-condensation of soul rings were to be promoted, a soul master would only need to obtain the first five soul beast soul rings, and the subsequent ones could be completed by themselves.

For humans, like soul beasts, a self-condensed soul ring would bring the most suitable soul skill for oneself. This was the first advantage. The soul ring's age limit would be close to the body's tolerance limit, so there was no need to worry about misjudging a soul beast's age and causing the body to explode from absorbing the soul ring. This was the second advantage.

And for soul beasts, the human demand for soul rings would be slightly decreased. But at the same time, a new difficulty was placed before the two of them. Humans had obtained a new cultivation system and could gradually get rid of the demand for soul beast soul rings, so that the number of soul beasts would no longer decrease year by year, which was good.

But the thought that "those who are not of my race must have a different heart" could not be ignored. Human nature is greedy. Soul beast soul rings were no longer so important to humans, but the attraction of soul bones and the hidden danger of soul beasts could not be ignored.

Except for hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, the death of other soul beasts was not a guaranteed drop of a soul bone. Soul beasts lived in soul beast forests, but it did not mean that no soul beast would run out of the forest and bring disaster to human settlements.

The conflict had always existed. The self-condensation of soul rings and Soul Veins might guarantee tens of thousands of years of stability for the soul beasts, but no one could guarantee that one day, a pair of war maniacs would not suddenly appear between the two races, determined to annihilate the other race and eliminate the hidden danger before stopping.

But for the soul beasts and humans at this time, this was undoubtedly a very good way out. In fact, although this path was not perfect, it had a very good advantage, and that was if the rulers of both sides always existed and had supreme strength and a friendly relationship.

Then, under the formulation of new rules and constraints, the conflict between soul beasts and humans would not erupt. As for who this supreme leader was, that would naturally be Lin Feng and Gu Yuena.

Even Huo Yuhao from ten thousand years later, the soul spirits he came up with only symbolically delayed the speed of the soul beasts' decline. Because soul rings and soul spirits were a rigid demand and required the proactive sacrifice of soul beasts, the number of soul beasts was still decreasing. When human growth speed surpassed that of soul beasts, the decline of the other party was inevitable.

And it was fraught with difficulties in its implementation. Even from a certain perspective, the promotion of soul spirits not only failed to resolve the conflict between soul beasts and humans, but instead deepened the hatred of soul beasts towards humans.

From this point of view, the self-condensation of soul rings and Soul Veins was better than soul spirits.

Growth and expansion are necessary elements for the development of a civilization, whether for humans or soul beasts.

The Douluo Star was too small. In the future, they would surely have to go outwards. It was best if soul beasts and humans did not intersect. As for the restrictions of the Divine Realm, it was very simple. A certain someone just had to become a venerable one.

Gu Yuena looked deeply at Lin Feng. This man, on whom she had just put her brand, suddenly started to laugh.

"You're not regretting it? Aren't you afraid that those few in your Spirit City will be angry?"

"I am the head of the family!"

Gu Yuena was stunned, then smiled gracefully and nodded slightly. "Then, head of the family, please trouble yourself to help me get dressed. I have no strength."

She slowly lifted the quilt on her body, revealing a peerless scenery. Lin Feng's face was solemn as he began to put the clothes at the side onto Gu Yuena's body. Their skins touched.

"Mmm~~"

Gu Yuena leaned forward and whispered in Lin Feng's ear, "Do you want to do it again?" Without waiting for Lin Feng to speak, her vermilion lips had already printed on his.

A long time passed. The figures of Lin Feng and Gu Yuena appeared at the same time on the shore of the Lake of Life. The two of them walked towards the wooden house hand in hand.

"Hey, Xiao Feng, and... Ma-master?"

Ah Yin looked over with surprise. The time Gu Yuena appeared here was not much. She remembered that when Lin Feng was condensing his sixth Soul Vein, he had stayed there for more than a week. Therefore, this time, after more than two days had passed, Ah Yin had thought that the time of Lin Feng's return would be postponed.

Suddenly, Ah Yin's smile froze. Her gaze locked on the hands the two were holding. Her sandalwood mouth was slightly agape, her line of sight shifting between the two.

She looked at the two who had walked up to her, dumbfounded. If she wasn't mistaken, the way the Master was walking seemed a little unnatural... And Xiao Feng, with his Soul Veins and "Qi," how could his face be a little pale, his two legs trembling?

Her nose sniffed lightly. Ah Yin smelled the unique scent of Lin Feng on Gu Yuena, and on Lin Feng, the scent of Gu Yuena like a dark orchid. The auras of the two were intertwined, indistinguishable from each other. Without long and deep communication and cohabitation, it would not be like this.

The astonishing idea that she had been somewhat suspicious of long ago fermented wildly in her mind. She couldn't help but blurt out, "You... you two..."

Gu Yuena looked at her with some apology, her ethereal voice sounding, "As you thought, Ah Yin. Xiao Feng is my husband now."

Ah Yin was speechless. Although she had long expected it, how could she be so unwilling? Clearly, compared to the Master, I was the one who came first... She didn't have to consider the thoughts of Xue'er, Ling Yuan, Bibi Dong, and the others. Just like the famous saying of that blockhead Xiong Jun, if you like it, just snatch it over and mate. TLNote: You're not the first

Ah Yin let out a long, quiet sigh. "If I had known this earlier, I should have eaten Xiao Feng up sooner..."

Gu Yuena blinked her eyes. "I didn't disagree with your matter with Xiao Feng, did I? What are you worrying about?"

"Ah?" Ah Yin covered her mouth, her face showing shock. With the Master? Can an existence like her tolerate it? Even that Bibi Dong had only agreed to her matter with Xiao Feng with the thought of having her fight against Xue'er and the others together.

Lin Feng took Ah Yin's hand and said softly, "Of course it's true." He turned his head to look at Gu Yuena. "Na'er will also be returning with us this time."

Na... Na'er? Ah Yin's slightly widened pupils widened again a little. This form of address already explained many things. She discovered that she had still underestimated Lin Feng. To be able to do this, to have both herself and the Master fall for him...

"Just get along as usual. As a former member of the soul beast clan, and also Lin Feng's other partner, you don't have to be restrained in front of me," Gu Yuena nodded at Ah Yin.

After a simple explanation, Gu Yuena summoned Di Tian and a group of other ferocious beasts.

"The matter is like this. I am going to accompany Xiao Feng back to the human world to inspect the timing for promoting the Ring Condensing Method and the Meridian Shaping Method, and at the same time to perfect the requirements of the Ring Condensing Method. Another matter, regarding Xiao Feng's god-seat, I plan to go on a trip to the Land of Extreme North with him later."

The group of ferocious beasts looked at each other. Di Tian was the first to speak. "Master, for you to go personally, won't it be a bit too conspicuous? There is absolutely no need for that. A Limit Douluo of humans cannot see through our human forms."

"It is enough for me to accompany him."

The other ferocious beasts also nodded in agreement. For our own master to be running around in the human world with a human, what would that look like? How can this be?

A strange color flashed in Bi Ji's pupils. In terms of perceiving life force and aura, she, whose main body was an Emerald Swan, was more certain than anyone. She looked at Gu Yuena, a moment of panic in her eyes.

"I said I will go, so I will go. Any objections?" Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes.

Di Tian let out a long sigh. "Yes, Master."

Gu Yuena's group of three came before the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. Tianmeng's bean-like eyes shrank fiercely. Is this the Master those ferocious beasts were talking about? Such a terrifying aura. Brother will probably be directly shattered in her hands.

"Did you hear what was said just now?"

Tianmeng nodded frantically, his head shaking into an afterimage.

Lin Feng was amused by him. "Simply put, your career as a power bank has temporarily come to an end. Although you still can't leave here, you can enjoy yourself for a while. Later, we will come back to pick you up and go to the Land of Extreme North."

Gu Yuena looked at Tianmeng faintly. "Don't run around."

"Brother... ahem, this subordinate understands! Thank you, Master! Thank you, Lin Feng!" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's face was streamed with tears. Family, who understands? I can finally not have my energy sucked by them! I just hope you all come back from the human world quickly and then take me to find Bingbing~~

Gu Yuena nodded. A spatial rift then appeared. Lin Feng took her and Ah Yin's hands and said with a slight smile, "Let's go, Na'er, Ah Yin."

"Mmm."

The spatial rift closed.

Bi Ji and Zi Ji covered their mouths, the shock in their eyes beyond words. They never would have thought that their own master, that noble and cold common lord of soul beasts, would actually have such a deep emotional bond with a human, and even allow that human to use such an intimate form of address.

"Holy crap! What did that human kid call our Master?!!" Xiong Jun screamed. His huge bear paw slapped on the silent Ten Thousand Demon King.

"Old Wood! Old Wood! Did you hear that! That human boy called the Master 'Na'er', and the Master actually agreed!!!"

Tianmeng was also shocked speechless, just staring blankly at the direction where the spatial rift had disappeared.

Di Tian's face turned black. A whip of soul power instantly bound the shouting Xiong Jun into a dumpling. The world instantly became quiet.

"Boss, what are you tying me up for?" Xiong Jun struggled, looking at Di Tian with a wronged face.

The veins on Di Tian's forehead jumped. He took a deep breath and said as peacefully as possible, "Xiong Jun, you need to calm down. The Master's decision is not something we can question."

Although his tone was very plain, one could still hear the meaning of gritted teeth from it. He looked in the direction where Lin Feng and the others had left, his heart sinking slightly. How long has this boy been here? Nearly a year?

Our own master was abducted by him?

"But, that boy, he..." Xiong Jun was still unwilling, but under Di Tian's stern gaze, his voice became smaller and smaller.

At this time, Zi Ji recovered from her shock. She said softly, "Actually, the relationship between the Master and that human is probably deeper than we imagine. And, he does have great potential. Perhaps he can really bring happiness to the Master."

"Happiness? What happiness can a human bring to the Master!" Xiong Jun widened his eyes, but under Di Tian's glare, he shrank his neck again.

Di Tian looked in the direction where the spatial rift had disappeared, took a deep breath, and said slowly, "The Master has her own choices. We should respect her. And, that Lin Feng, he is not simple. His appearance is perhaps really a turning point."

Bi Ji hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "I just sensed the Master's aura. Her life origin has changed somewhat. And, her aura and Lin Feng's are intertwined with each other..."

The moment these words came out, all the ferocious beasts fell silent. Di Tian's two eyes went black. He had thought they had just become friends. Who would have thought that she had even given her body away?

Then this Lin Feng, who is he to them now? The soul beast's Master-Consort?

The restrained Xiong Jun stopped his struggling movements and said in a calm tone, "Boss, I want to go and beat him up."

Di Tian did not respond. You want to beat him up? I also want to. But do you have the guts? Do you have the strength?

Out here, you have to talk about background!

"Hoo—" Xiong Jun looked at the Tianmeng who had just been freed and suddenly said, "The Master didn't say we couldn't beat him up, right?"

Di Tian did not speak but released the restraint on Xiong Jun.

The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm looked at Xiong Jun and the other ferocious beasts walking towards it with ill intent and screamed loudly, "You... you all, don't come over here! The Master was abducted, you go find Lin Feng! How can you take your anger out on me!? Ah—"
