A sigh of pure contentment came out from Mu Qianyue’s lips as she closed her eyes in comfort.
Until… Mmmm… What is it that stinks so much?
She opened her eyes and saw a layer of black and greasy muck on the surface of the water. The stench came from that!
These were probably the impurities in her body?
Suddenly, she squinted her eyes. These impurities were covered with a faint layer of green light. These were toxins! To think that this body had been poisoned! If they were left as is, she wouldn’t be able to live past half a year!
This was a slow-acting poison that was colorless and scentless, so it lay dormant in the body and would usually not show any abnormalities. However, it would slowly devour the body’s vitality, making it seem as if one died a natural death. Even upon investigation, it would be hard to find anything wrong.
So that’s how it was.
Very good! They wanted her life?
She’d return everything back to them in ten or a hundred folds!
“Since I’ve taken over your body, I’ll help to avenge you!”
Mu Qianyue came out from the bathtub and to her surprise, she realized that all her injuries had healed! Moreover, not even a slightest scar was left behind!
This… wasn’t this too much of an exaggeration? Although she could also refine scar-removing medicine, the effects would definitely not be as heaven-defying!
Moreover, her injuries were extremely serious and terrifying!
However, under the Spirit-Summoning Liquid’s effects, all of the injuries had disappeared in less than half an hour! It was as if she hadn’t gotten hurt before! Not only that, her skin was even better than it used to be, smoother than before, just like top quality, mutton-fat jade! Even the meridians in her body had become at least twice as wide as it was before.
That kid wasn’t that bad after all!
Her brows suddenly furrowed together. She seemed to have forgotten the most important thing. This body didn’t have a martial soul!
Damn it!
How was she going to cultivate without a martial soul?
Three years ago, Mu Qianyue had been a genius in the entire Phoenix Shadow Nation. At the age of 12, she had reached the tenth-stage of the Body-Tempering Stage and her aptitude was unparalleled. In addition to her unrivaled beauty, she was the goddess in the hearts of countless young men in the Phoenix Shadow Nation!
After one reached the tenth-stage of the Body-Tempering Stage, they would need to awaken their martial soul to be able to continue their cultivation. However, Mu Qianyue was discovered to be trash who was born with no martial soul!
Without a martial soul, one could never become a cultivator!
Mu Qianyue instantly felt a faint sadness.
Her eyes gleamed and she called out, “Tianshuo!”
Alas, there was no reaction…
So she called again, “Little Tiantian…”
“Little Shuoshuo…”
“Little deary…”
“Little bottom1…”
“Little Shota1…”
“Why are you calling me?” The face of Tianshuo, who was in the Heaven Connecting Tower’s space, twitched. He couldn’t take the annoying woman anymore and could only reply.
“Hehe, your mistress seems to be born without a martial soul.” Mu Qianyue’s voice became softer, wearing a currying smile.
“Stupid! It’s one thing that you’re ugly, but your intelligence is so low as well. Your dantian had been sealed up previously, so of course no martial soul can be detected. Now that the seal has been undone, you can continue with your cultivation. Take a look at your dantian yourself.” Tianshuo’s disdainful voice rang out in her mind. “One more thing. You don’t have to call out. I can hear what you’re thinking in your mind as well.”
Damn! That’s so cool!
“You won’t snoop on me, right?” Mu Qianyue’s face turned black. Didn’t this mean she wouldn’t have any secrets in the future?!
“Do you think I’m you?” Tianshuo let out a furious snort. “I’m going to rest now. Don’t call me if it’s nothing! Even if you do, I will ignore you! Sigh, my face hasn’t been taken care of for close to a thousand years. I’ll have to go take good care of it…”
Pffft!
Hearing that, a few black lines flashed past on Mu Qianyue’s face. Take care of his face? So he was a narcissistic little shota! No, he was an old monster!
Mu Qianyue sat cross-legged on her bed as she took in the condition of her inner body. A white light sphere that was almost transparent was floating in her dantian. There was a tiny human figure in the light sphere and Mu Qianyue took a more detailed look. Wasn’t this a miniature version of herself?
Was this a martial soul? Why was it a colorless martial soul?
There were strong and weak martial souls, and there were a total of seven grades. From the lowest to the highest grade, they were the red soul, orange soul, yellow soul, green soul, blue soul, indigo soul, and violet soul.
The higher the grade of the martial soul, the faster one’s cultivation speed. This would be what people referred to as prodigies.
Since ancient times, those with red souls were greater in numbers. These people had mediocre aptitude and wouldn’t have great achievements in the future. Those who had green souls or higher could be referred to as prodigies and there were very few of them. None of them were strong experts in a given area.
Those who possessed the indigo soul could be referred to as unparalleled geniuses. Of course, there was only a rare few in the world who possessed the indigo soul. Their cultivation was many times easier than that of normal people.
As for the violet soul, it was something that hadn’t appeared before in 1,000 years! Those who possessed the violet soul could be referred to as demonic perverts!
Mu Qianyue was stumped. Could it be that her martial soul was too weak and thus colorless?
“What? You’re saying that your martial soul is colorless?” Tianshuo’s astonished voice rang out in her mind.
“En,” Mu Qianyue nodded helplessly. She reckoned that this kid was going to deal her a blow again in a while.
“Oh my god! To think that it’s colorless! How long has it since a colorless martial soul last appeared on this land? It has probably been 10,000 years…” Tianshuo’s voice rang out.
“Are colorless martial souls very amazing?” Mu Qianyue asked, feeling surprised. Not only did this kid not deal her a blow, he sounded very astonished.
“Of course! Colorless souls are the highest grade amongst all martial souls! People with colorless martial souls are born experts. It’s because they don’t have to expend much effort to become Sovereign Cultivators, Ancestral Cultivators, or even stronger!”
Hearing that, Mu Qianyue couldn’t help but draw in a cold gasp, feeling extremely agitated. Oh my god! She had struck gold! Or higher than gold! Who was the one calling her trash? In the future, she was going to blind their snobbish eyes!
“Then why haven’t I heard anyone mentioning colorless martial souls before?” She gave it some thought before asking.
“People all think that the violet soul is the highest grade, but that isn’t the case. The martial soul of the highest grade is colorless! It’s because there haven’t been any colorless martial souls for close to 10,000 years that people have gradually forgotten about it. Even the violet martial soul hasn’t appeared for close to 1,000 years. This world is increasingly going into decline.” Tianshuo sighed. “Here is a cultivation technique, it was left behind by the previous owner of the Heaven Connecting Tower.”
As the last note of Tianshuo’s voice ended, Mu Qianyue felt an intense pain coming from her mind. It was only after a short moment that the pain gradually disappeared.
At the same time, a brilliant golden light suddenly appeared in her mind.
“Nine Dragons Soul-Devouring Technique!”
The big golden words were written with a steady, impactful hand, like tall and majestic mountains yet also dignified and beautiful like a nine-tiered palace.
The Nine Dragons Soul-Devouring Technique had a total of nine levels. With each level cultivated, a dragon made from True Essence Energy would take form in one’s body. When a total of nine Essence Dragons are formed, one would have perfected this cultivation technique.
Upon the mastery of the nine dragons, who in the endless universe could be a match?
It was domineering and unrivaled!
The most domineering and terrifying part of the Nine Dragons Soul-Devouring Technique was that it could engulf other people’s martial soul, turning them into one’s own power!
Oh my god! Wasn’t this the Cosmic Absorbing Power1?
As expected of a divine-tier cultivation technique!
