Lin Bai immediately sat cross-legged on the mat and said, "Why is my martial soul like this!"
Other people's martial souls are either fierce demonic beasts, or even more powerful divine beasts.
For example, Lin Hai's awakened martial soul is the Swift Lightning Leopard, and Lin Zier's martial soul is the Primordial Goddess Dao.
But Lin Bai's martial soul is completely different from others.
His martial soul is a person!
To be precise, it is the back view of a person.
Calm and composed, Lin Bai looked inward and saw his martial soul.
It was a back view facing away from the world, with a head of jet-black hair fluttering without wind, the hem of his clothes swaying, his head tilted to look at the heavens, and a hand holding an extremely fierce sword. Even though he couldn't see the face, Lin Bai could still imagine the world-defying gaze.
This appearance was as if he were an enemy of the world!
"Who is this figure?" Lin Bai said, utterly puzzled.
Buzz!
When Lin Bai looked at this back view, his mind buzzed, and he felt intense pain.
Immediately, a set of obscure and difficult incantations appeared in Lin Bai's mind.
"Divine Demon Prison Incantation, using the essence of heaven and earth, the divine blood of demonic beasts, heavenly lightning, and earth fire to temper oneself. This chapter is divided into nine levels, laying a solid foundation for future martial arts."
"Complete the cultivation before the Divine Pill Realm, and the martial soul can be upgraded to the Mystic level, and at the same time, you can obtain the cultivation method of the second chapter of Yi Tian Jing."
Lin Bai read the opening words of the "Divine Demon Prison Incantation" and was surprised, his eyes wide open!
After a while, Lin Bai burst out laughing: "Hahaha, with such a powerful incantation, even if my martial soul is a first-rank Yellow level, so what? I can still dominate!"
"Those who mocked me in the martial arts field today, wait, I will surprise you!"
Having obtained the divine incantation, Lin Bai naturally wouldn't waste time. He calmed his mind and began to cultivate the "Divine Demon Prison Incantation."
Immersed in the mysteries of the "Divine Demon Prison Incantation," three days passed without him noticing.
"In just three days, I have broken through to the third level of martial arts, and the Divine Demon Prison Incantation has also cleansed my meridians, making my perception of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth even more fluid."
"Truly a divine incantation!"
"Such a powerful divine incantation is just the first chapter of Yi Tian Jing. What about the later chapters? Will they be even more powerful!"
Lin Bai said, his heart racing. After some thought, he muttered to himself, "This incantation was given to me by my martial soul!"
"My martial soul is the back view of a person. Who is this person?"
Lin Bai said, utterly puzzled.
After thinking for a while, Lin Bai shook his head and said, "Never mind, this incantation won't harm me. Now that the pills are gone, since I have already awakened my martial soul, I should go and retrieve the pills and cultivation resources my father left for me."
Before Lin Bai's father, Lin Duo, left Lingxi City, he entrusted a substantial amount of cultivation resources to the Lin family for safekeeping.
He instructed the Lin family to hand over these cultivation resources to Lin Bai when he turned sixteen and awakened his martial soul.
These cultivation resources were enough for Lin Bai to cultivate from the Martial Arts Realm to the Heavenly Martial Realm!
The Martial Arts Realm is divided strictly, from low to high: Nine Levels of Martial Arts, True Martial Realm, Mystic Martial Realm, Earth Martial Realm, Heavenly Martial Realm, and Divine Pill Realm!
The opening words of the "Divine Demon Prison Incantation" mentioned that if you complete the cultivation before the Divine Pill Realm, you can obtain the cultivation method of the second chapter of Yi Tian Jing.
This means that if you exceed the Divine Pill Realm without completing the ninth level of the Divine Demon Prison Incantation, you won't be able to obtain the cultivation method of the second chapter.
After washing up, Lin Bai got up and headed to the Elder Hall to claim the cultivation resources Lin Duo left for him.
In front of the Elder Hall.
After being informed by a disciple, Lin Bai entered the Elder Hall.
Inside the Elder Hall, the elders were seated, smiling at Lin Bai.
"Lin Bai, I heard that your martial soul awakening results were not ideal, even failing to surpass my son Lin Xuan, hahaha, but don't be discouraged, the path of martial arts is about diligence and hard work."
Lin Tianheng, an elder of the Lin family, said to Lin Bai with a chuckle.
Lin Tianheng's son, Lin Xuan, awakened a sixth-rank Yellow level martial soul, which made him quite prominent in the Elder Hall and Lingxi City.
"That's right, Lin Bai, don't be discouraged. Although my daughter awakened a ninth-rank Yellow level martial soul, which is seven or eight ranks higher than yours, diligence and hard work will pay off. As long as you work hard, I believe you can do it too."
Another elder, Lin Tianhai, also said with a smile.
Lin Tianhai's daughter, Lin Shanshan, awakened her martial soul at the same time as Lin Bai.
Lin Bai looked at these elders with a cold laugh. These people were of the same generation as his father. Back then, Lin Duo's martial soul was so high that they were completely overshadowed by his brilliance.
Unfortunately, Lin Duo is now missing, and Lin Bai is a waste, so they can finally find a sense of existence in Lin Bai.
The most regrettable thing is that they may not even know that Lin Bai's martial soul is far more powerful than their Mystic and Earth level martial souls!
After a cold laugh, Lin Bai said, "Thank you, elders, for your concern. Lin Bai has not given up on martial arts because of his first-rank Yellow level talent. I came to the Elder Hall today to retrieve the things my father left here."
"What things?" an elder asked, feigning ignorance.
Lin Bai said, "Naturally, the cultivation resources my father asked you to keep for me, which are enough to cultivate me to the Heavenly Martial Realm!"
Hearing that Lin Bai wanted to retrieve the cultivation resources left by Lin Duo, the elders were all speechless and had grim expressions.
They all knew that the cultivation resources left by Lin Duo were enough to cultivate a disciple to the Heavenly Martial Realm.
Lin Bai asked, puzzled, "What? Do the elders have any objections?"
The head elder of the Lin family, Lin Taiheng, cleared his throat and said seriously, "We have already decided to give these cultivation resources to Lin Zier!"
"What!"
Hearing this, Lin Bai was struck by lightning!
If Lin Bai wanted to quickly cultivate, these cultivation resources were crucial!
Lin Bai said angrily, "These are the cultivation resources my father left for me, just temporarily entrusted to you. What right do you have to distribute them to others without permission!"
"Are you not afraid that my father will return and be furious?"
Lin Bai roared.
"Lin Bai, this is the Elder Hall, not a place for you to act recklessly."
"You're shouting? Do you think you're something? If it weren't for Lin Duo's contributions to the family, we could expel you from the Lin family just for this!"
"Lin Duo? Haha, whether he's dead or not is still uncertain!"
"Lin Bai, with your first-rank Yellow level martial soul, no matter how hard you try, it won't make a difference. It's better to distribute these cultivation resources to Lin Zier, who will surely achieve great things in the future!" Lin Taiheng sighed.
Hearing the cold ridicule from the Elder Hall, Lin Bai was so angry that his hair stood on end: "A bunch of old scoundrels, trying to embezzle the cultivation resources my father left for me, dream on!"
"Give them to Lin Zier? Hmph, that waste, a cunning and poisonous woman, what can she achieve?!"
Lin Taiheng, hearing Lin Bai insult Lin Zier, immediately roared, "Lin Bai, who are you calling a waste!"
Lin Tianhai also said angrily, "Lin Bai, you will pay for what you did today!"
"Is what I said wrong? Lin Zier is a cunning and poisonous woman with no future!" Lin Bai said with a cold laugh.
"My future doesn't need to be evaluated by a first-rank Yellow level waste like you."
At this moment, a woman walked into the Elder Hall.
It was Lin Zier.
Lin Zier, dressed in purple, looked noble and elegant, with a proud face and a condescending gaze at Lin Bai.
This gaze made Lin Bai feel deeply humiliated, and he vowed to remember this condescending look for the rest of his life!
Lin Zier said coldly, "Father, elders, why waste words on a waste? Just beat him out with sticks."
"Lin Zier, don't be too arrogant. The road is long, and who knows who will become the king?" Lin Bai said coldly.
Lin Zier laughed coldly, "Really? Do you really think your first-rank Yellow level martial soul can match mine? Not to mention me, even Lin Xuan and Lin Hai, you can't catch up to them in your lifetime."
"If you insist on saying this, fine, I'll give you a chance. In two months, it will be the day when the four major sects of the Divine Martial Kingdom come to Lingxi City to recruit disciples."
"At that time, I will join the strongest of the four major sects, the Canghai Yuntaigong, with the best results in Lingxi City."
"This will be your last chance to catch up with me. Do you dare to challenge me at the recruitment ceremony in two months?"
"Of course!" Lin Bai responded straightforwardly, "In two months, I will definitely defeat you!"
Lin Zier laughed coldly, "I'm waiting!"
Lin Bai took a deep look at the elders and Lin Zier in the Elder Hall, waved his sleeves, and angrily walked out: "A bunch of old dogs, and Lin Zier, you wait. In two months, I will show you who the genius is!"
"Stealing the cultivation resources my father left for me, I will make you pay with your life!"
Inside the Elder Hall.
The head elder, Lin Taiheng, asked, "Zier, you were too hasty. Do you have the confidence in two months?"
Lin Zier laughed lightly, "Haha, Father, you underestimate your daughter. I have an Earth level martial soul. Not to mention Lin Bai, there is no one within a hundred thousand miles of Lingxi City who can be my match!"
"Father, give me the cultivation resources left by Lin Duo. In two months, I will definitely cultivate to the ninth level of martial arts and show my prowess at the recruitment ceremony."
"As long as I can enter the Canghai Yuntaigong, it will be the time for me, Lin Zier, to rise to prominence."
"At that time, even if Lin Duo returns, I won't fear him!"
Lin Zier said confidently.
The Canghai Yuntaigong, one of the four supreme sects in the Divine Martial Kingdom, is the holy land of martial arts that countless martial artists in the Divine Martial Kingdom dream of!
