Green Light Douluo

Chapter 3: Chapter 3: The First Soul Ring



"To think he actually killed it."

Tang Hao, who was observing everything from the shadows, clearly did not expect that his adopted son could easily kill a century-old soul beast. Such decisiveness and ruthlessness, along with a fearless spirit, made him somewhat worried.

He intended to use this adopted son to resurrect Ah Yin. If this son grew up and discovered that he was being used, would he turn against him, or even become his enemy? The thought of this possibility made Tang Hao furrow his brows.

However, in the next moment, a strategy formed in his mind. "As long as he lacks power, no amount of decisiveness or ruthlessness will matter." To ensure that Tang Yin would wholeheartedly assist him in resurrecting his wife, he decided to only allow Tang Yin to hunt auxiliary-type soul beasts to absorb their soul rings, guiding him to become an auxiliary soul master focused on helping him revive his wife.

Naturally, Tang Yin was unaware of Tang Hao's thoughts. At this moment, relying on the poisonous vines that had helped him kill the Wolf King, he watched the soul ring rise from the corpse. He was contemplating what type of soul skill to absorb for his first soul ring. Just then, Tang Hao silently approached him. Looking at Tang Yin, he revealed a look of appreciation.

"Very good, Xiao Yin, you did well."

Seeing Tang Hao suddenly appear, Tang Yin was surprised by his strength but quickly adopted a compliant demeanor, clasping his fists and saying, "It's all thanks to my adoptive father's training during this time; otherwise, I wouldn't have had the strength to defeat those wolves."

"And I know that my adoptive father must have been secretly protecting me, which is why I had the courage to fight the Wolf King."

Tang Hao glanced at the Wolf King's corpse and then at his adopted son, saying indifferently, "Since you have completed the task I assigned you, come with me to hunt for your first soul ring."

"Yes, adoptive father."

"But adoptive father, what kind of soul beast should I hunt for this first soul ring?" Tang Yin asked, slightly excited about becoming a soul master, while also curious about what kind of soul beast Tang Hao would help him hunt.

"Light Gathering Beast."

"Light... Gathering Beast?"

After Tang Hao blurted out those three words, he walked ahead into the depths of the forest. He had already investigated where the Light Gathering Beast was located. Upon hearing the name, Tang Yin was momentarily stunned, unable to believe it as he watched Tang Hao gradually walk away.

On the Douluo Continent, even a three-year-old child knew that the Light Gathering Beast was a creature so weak that it could be crushed with a hand. This soul beast also had another name: Firefly. Its ability was to absorb sunlight during the day, gather it, and release light at night. It looked beautiful but had little practical use. One could say it was weaker than Blue Silver Grass.

His intention was to absorb a soul ring from a soul beast that could enhance his combat power. Yet Tang Hao wanted him to absorb the Light Gathering Beast as his first soul ring.

What was the purpose?

Wait a minute.

The Light Gathering Beast could gather sunlight and absorb it. His martial soul was Green Light. Tang Hao knew that his martial soul could also promote plant growth. Absorbing the Light Gathering Beast... Tang Hao intended for him to follow the path of an auxiliary soul master to better assist in reviving Ah Yin, turning him into a tool.

Realizing this, Tang Yin's gaze turned cold, and anger began to brew within him. However, he held it back. In the future, he would let Tang Hao know that he, Tang Yin, was not to be underestimated. Moreover, his martial soul was Green Light, capable of promoting plant growth. If he absorbed the Light Gathering Beast's ability to gather sunlight, it might yield unexpected effects.

Not to mention, he had the Green Light system; once he started his journey with it, becoming stronger would be quite simple.

With these thoughts, he silently followed Tang Hao. Just then, the voice of the Green Light system echoed in his ears.

"Ding!"

"Because Tang Hao forcibly helped the host choose the Light Gathering Beast as the first soul ring for the martial soul, and the host has accumulated resentment towards Tang Hao, a special effect is triggered. When the host uses the Green Light to dominate adoptive mother A Yin, the rewards will be doubled."

This... Hearing the system's voice, Tang Yin was taken aback; he did not expect there would be such an influence. But that was fine. In the future, he could do even more outrageous things to adoptive mother A Yin, making her feel pleasure beyond measure.

Not thinking too much about it, he continued to follow Tang Hao. As a Title Douluo-level powerhouse and a top figure on the Douluo Continent, finding a Light Gathering Beast was incredibly easy for him. After leading Tang Yin to a certain location, it wasn't long before he caught a Light Gathering Beast and tossed it in front of him.

"This Light Gathering Beast is about four hundred years old. Kill it and absorb its soul ring, and you will become a soul master. Now, begin."

"Yes, adoptive father."

Tang Yin looked at the Light Gathering Beast before him, which resembled a firefly but was a full meter long. Without any hesitation, he swiftly killed it. As the yellow soul ring rose from the corpse, he sat cross-legged in front of it, drawing the soul ring to himself and beginning to absorb it.

Having trained from a young age and endured some time under Tang Hao's harsh training, his physical strength far exceeded that of ordinary people, and his willpower was also extraordinary.

Absorbing the soul ring posed no difficulties. As the soul ring slowly integrated into him, his soul power broke through from level ten to level eleven, becoming a one-ring soul master.

Next, he learned the ability of his first soul ring's soul skill. The ability to gather light from the Light Gathering Beast combined with his Green Light ability resulted in a soul skill named: Photosynthesis. This soul skill could be used on plants, doubling the effect of his Green Light's growth promotion ability, allowing them to grow rapidly.

For instance, he could previously make a Blue Silver Grass quickly evolve into a ten-year-old soul beast; now he could make it rapidly become a twenty-year-old soul beast, all within less than a minute. The longer the time, the greater the growth.

Another use was for himself. Using the soul skill could double his soul power training speed and utilize the gathered sunlight to strengthen every cell in his body, making him even stronger. The benefits of this ability were simply unimaginable.

"How is it? What is the soul skill?"

Seeing that his adopted son had successfully absorbed it, Tang Hao quickly approached to inquire. Based on his understanding, it should be an auxiliary-type soul skill that would help better and faster in reviving A Yin.

'Hehe, adoptive father, you never expected to lose out while trying to gain, did you?' Tang Yin sneered inwardly but still pretended to be obedient, revealing one of his soul skill's abilities.

"My soul skill is called Photosynthesis. It allows my martial soul's growth-promoting ability to double, making plants grow faster, and it will also enhance as my level increases."

"Is that so?"

Upon learning about Tang Yin's ability, Tang Hao felt very satisfied and was pleasantly surprised by how good it was. He did not suspect that his adopted son would hide anything from him. After all, he had always been a good adoptive father to Tang Yin.

"Since you have absorbed it well, come with me. We will go see your third brother, and then we will head to where we need to go. Once we arrive at that place, I will tell you what to do."

"Yes, adoptive father."

Tang Yin stood up, brushed off the dust from his clothes, and followed Tang Hao as they quickly left the Soul Beast Forest. However, they had not walked far when Tang Hao looked at the sky and noticed it was getting late, so he quickly led Tang Yin away.

By the time they arrived at Nuoding Academy, it was completely dark.

"Adoptive father, weren't we supposed to go see third brother?" Tang Yin looked at Tang Hao in confusion. This didn't seem to be Tang San's dormitory. He glanced curiously at the two-story dormitory in front of him.

"There's no rush. You wait outside for a moment; I will be out soon. Don't run around."

Tang Hao glanced at Tang Yin and, after speaking, jumped onto the balcony of the two-story building and walked inside.

Whether it was a trick of the light or not, when Tang Hao said not to run around, a sense of warning made Tang Yin feel uneasy inside.

He needed to grow stronger. He needed to grow stronger quickly. Then he could break free from Tang Hao's control, dominate Ah Yin, and take over his adoptive mother. He felt an urgent desire within him. He guessed that Tang Hao would definitely take him to see A Yin next.

Thinking of adoptive mother Ah Yin... Tang Yin secretly sneered.

...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

At this moment, Tang Hao arrived at the door and knocked directly. Inside the room was none other than Tang San's teacher, Yu Xiaogang.

Hearing the knocking sound, Yu Xiaogang, who was working, frowned. Usually, apart from Tang San, no one else would come to see him.

"Come in." He put down the book in his hand and said lightly.

Then he saw a man dressed in a simple gray robe, with messy black hair cascading over his shoulders, walk in. His aged face was etched with the marks of time, and his murky eyes seemed to have reached the end of their life, which did not match his appearance of around fifty years old.

"Hello, Master."

Tang Hao glanced at Yu Xiaogang, his voice low and somewhat hoarse.

For some reason, when this person entered the room, Yu Xiaogang instinctively tensed up, and even his soul power unconsciously spread throughout his body.

"You are...?"

Yu Xiaogang did not recognize the person before him.

Tang Hao looked at Yu Xiaogang and said: "It has been about twenty years since we last met. It's no wonder you don't recognize me in this form. My name is Tang Hao."

"Tang Hao?"

Yu Xiaogang's usually calm demeanor suddenly changed dramatically; his pupils focused almost instantly, staring intently at the person before him. His hands gripped the table tightly, his fingers turning pale. "You... you are..."

Tang Hao waved his hand to stop Yu Xiaogang from continuing, coldly saying, "There's no need to mention past titles. Back then, we had some acquaintance. Others might think you are just a madman, but I know you are a persistent person. I am leaving now, but before I go, I need to ask you to take good care of him."

"You are leaving? Where are you going? He is your son."

Yu Xiaogang stared at Tang Hao fiercely, his gaze somewhat sharp.

Tang Hao replied: "He has his own path to walk; I won't interfere too much. Just remember, he is my son."

After saying this, Tang Hao raised his hand and tossed a black token onto the table in front of Yu Xiaogang with a clatter.

Bang!

The door closed, and Tang Hao's tall figure had already disappeared.

Yu Xiaogang looked at the token in his hand and sighed. Since Tang Hao entrusted his son to him, he would definitely cultivate a top powerhouse for Tang Hao on the continent. His theories would surely be realized in Tang San.

After leaving, Tang Hao went to see his son Tang San and then took his adopted son Tang Yin to the place where A Yin was kept. As for Xiao Wu, who was with his son Tang San, as a Title Douluo, he knew at a glance that Xiao Wu was a transformed soul beast. But he did not stop her. This was his son's path; his son needed to walk it himself.

What he has to do now is to take his adopted son Tang Yin to resurrect his wife Ah Yin, and then seek revenge from Spirit Hall.

......

Tang San, who was six years old at this time, didn't know that his father had already visited him, and he brought his brother Tang Yin with him.

He is practicing Mysterious Heaven Skill.

Because he had lived with his brother Tang Yin since he was a child, he found out that his brother Tang Yin was very powerful through constant competition.

Sometimes he and Tang Yin competed and fought, and he found that he could only tie with him even if he practiced Mysterious Heaven Skill.

So much so that he later became even more eager to practice Mysterious Heaven Skill and become stronger.

He was even thinking in his heart that after the Mysterious Heaven Skill breakthrough, he must compete with Tang Yin again and defeat him completely.

......

A few days later.

Tang Yin has followed Tang Hao to the outside of a cave.

This cave is very hidden, inside the crack of a waterfall. If Tang Hao hadn't led it, he wouldn't have noticed that there was another cave here.

"Come on. Go inside and I'll tell you everything."

After Tang Hao finished speaking, he took the lead and walked into the cave.

Tang Yin didn't delay either.

Then he walked in.

The cave was very dark, but when we walked into the innermost part, everything around us became brighter.

Looking up, a stone hole appeared at the top of the cave wall, and here was a stone chamber of only about ten square meters.

There is no furnishings in the stone room, it is empty, but there is a small earth bag directly under the stone hole above.

A slender Blue Silver Grass fluttered in the wind on the earthen parcel.

The Blue Silver Grass looks longer than ordinary grass blades, and the most peculiar thing is the golden fine lines on the grass blades.

It was Tang Hao's wife, Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin.

She is also Tang Yin's step mother, Ah Yin.
