Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 8 Courage is the hymn of life, I hope you have

Sun Kong nodded at Nan Liujing.

Nan Liujing walked out and followed Wu Jingru to where Wu Siduo and others were standing just now.

"Concentrate and calm down." Wu Jingru's face became serious.

Nan Liujing closed his eyes, waiting for the light of awakening to fall on him.

Rarely, Sun Kong's expression also became solemn.

Wu Siduo looked at it curiously.

Soon, lines of light of awakening once again fell from the ceiling and gathered at Nan Liujing's feet.

Strands of power penetrated from the soles of his feet. Nan Liujing felt his whole body becoming warm. His body trembled, and then it was as if his five senses were deprived. He lost all perception ability, and his consciousness quietly came to a vague space.

outside world.

Under the gazes of the crowd, countless dazzling dark blue arcs of electricity suddenly shot out from the surface of Nan Liujing's body. The arcs that flowed like liquid quickly condensed and turned into a vague dragon-shaped shadow.

There was a faint dragon roar, and with each sound, the nearby lightning element became stronger and the other elements became weaker.

Gradually, the dragon-shaped shadows began to gather and transform into a stick-shaped weapon.

"It's indeed the Coiling Dragon Staff Martial Spirit. It can even mobilize the thunder element between heaven and earth to suppress the other elements. This child's Thunder Dragon Spirit is far superior to his father's." Sun Kong's eyes were sharp as a torch, and he asked in a deep voice: "Jingru, what is the level of this child's innate soul power?"

Wu Jingru was about to use the light of awakening to check, but suddenly his expression changed slightly, and he said in surprise: "Something is wrong, there is another martial soul in this child."

"Twin martial spirits again?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was surprised.

Nan Liujing, the person involved, had no idea what was happening in reality. At this moment, he was looking ahead with cold sweat.

At that moment, the blurry space before him was pierced by a streak of purple-red lightning, which stopped at his feet and formed a deep lightning gully. The thick fog, as if it had encountered some terrifying force, could never regroup.

He looked up, following the straight path of lightning. At the end, a towering figure, over three meters tall, stood there. Surges of thunder swirled around this mysterious figure, a divine wheel looming behind his head, emitting a terrifying aura that towered over heaven and earth.

Due to the dim light, Nan Liujing could not see the man's face clearly, but he was sure that the man was staring at him.

"You're lucky."

When Nan Liujing was extremely alert, a melodious voice that seemed to come from the sky came from the front.

It's him.

Nan Liujing's heart moved. The voice that scolded and woke him up was exactly the same as this one.

"The bloodline aura that awakened the Heavenly Tribulation Pearl has disappeared. In its place, you, who inherited that bloodline aura, have been replaced."

"All living things need to face the heavenly tribulation directly to gain the approval of the universe's will. Otherwise, it will be difficult to take that step." The mysterious man said, his voice becoming more and more serious. "And those chosen by the Heavenly Tribulation Pearl must face the baptism of heavenly thunder."

"The Heavenly Tribulation Pearl will help the weak, but it will never help the cowardly."

"Courage is the hymn of life. I hope you have it."

The mysterious man's sharp eyes shot straight at Nan Liujing, as if trying to see through his mind.

Nan Liujing's mind was shocked, but his consciousness fell towards the real world.

When he opened his eyes again, he immediately experienced the same scene that Wu Siduo saw when she woke up.

Sun Kong, Ye Changming, Wu Siduo and others all stared at him intently, which made him feel a little nervous.

Just as Nan Liujing was about to say something, he heard a crackling sound of electricity in his ears. He turned his head and looked, then froze in place.

On the floor on one side stood a dark green stick emitting a heavy aura. Its surface was covered with fine scales, which emitted a faint cold light in the dim environment. The strange thing was that these scales were not just decorations that could only please the eyes, but instead flowed and undulated with dazzling arcs of electricity, as if breathing.

Nan Liujing clearly felt that these dragon scales seemed to be absorbing the thunder elements between heaven and earth and then using them for their own purposes.

In addition, he could sense that the various elements within a radius of ten meters were obviously weaker than the same elements ten meters away.

This was beyond his expectation, because he had asked Sun Kong before, and the Thunder Dragon Soul's Coiled Dragon Stick did not have this special passive ability.

"Hold it." Sun Kong's voice came from not far away.

Nan Liujing took a deep breath, then stretched out his right hand and grasped the Panlong Stick.

"Zizzizi!"

In an instant, the electric arcs on the surface of the Panlong Stick became more active and intense, with dazzling flashes of lightning. The dragon scales attached to it lit up with a deep dark blue glow, and the high-pitched dragon roars continued to sound from it. A will of "I will swim in the vastness of the world" left a mark in Nan Liujing's heart like a stone carving.

After a few seconds, the Panlong Stick finally calmed down and all the light dissipated.

A faint flash of lightning flashed across Nan Liujing's dark blue pupils.

"No wonder your uncle brought you to me to awaken your martial soul. It turns out he had prepared a surprise for you." Wu Jingru said with a smile.

Nan Liujing was still immersed in his martial spirit, and was a little confused when he heard this. Sun Kong walked over and chuckled, "Try to activate your spirit power and focus it on your left palm."

Nan Liujing's eyes suddenly widened, and after he realized what was happening, he immediately did as he was told.

Colorless and transparent soul power gathered in the palm of his left hand, and the next moment, a delicate and small round object rose up.

A faint fragrance quickly spread.

Nan Liujing was stunned. He had never imagined that his casual wish would actually come true. He had successfully inherited both his parents' martial spirits.

"It smells so good." Wu Siduo sniffed delicately, her beautiful eyes lighting up slightly.

"Ok?"

Having also smelled the fragrance, the expressions of Sun Kong, Wu Jingru, Ye Changming and others suddenly changed from smiling to hidden surprise.

Their eyes all fell on the colorless and almost transparent candy.

This fragrance could actually help them to better focus their spiritual power. Although this improvement was negligible considering their cultivation level, Nan Liujing was only at level ten in spirit power and didn't even have a spirit ring. He could influence them simply with his martial spirit. If he grew up, how strong would he be?
Sun Kong seemed to be lost in thought. He was most aware of the changes in both the Coiled Dragon Stick and the Candy Martial Soul. His younger brother and sister-in-law had never had such abilities when releasing their martial souls.

Wu Jingru narrowed her eyes slightly, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Nan Liujing was a little different.

The Coiled Dragon Stick, a true dragon soul, plus a rare food-type martial soul.

This closer relationship seems to be a good idea.

"These two children are born with full soul power. Why not take them to the Soul Pagoda to obtain souls now?" Ye Changming suggested.

Wu Jingru and his wife both nodded in agreement.

Sun Kong glanced at Nan Liujing and Wu Siduo, "Okay."

...

As the continent's most renowned organization, the Spirit Pagoda has eighteen large branch towers across the Sun-Moon Federation, each located in one of the eighteen most renowned cities. These eighteen large Spirit Pagodas are also known as the Eighteen Celestial Pillars.

As the third-ranked city in terms of comprehensive capabilities in Douluo Continent, Xingluo City naturally has a Tianzhu Branch Tower.

This was a massive building, over five hundred meters tall, its walls a brilliant silver, faintly shimmering with the faint glow of a soul-guiding formation. Its base was octagonal, encompassing a vast area, and it contracted inward every ten floors, all the way to the tower's summit.

Even in the Xingluo City with its numerous high-rise buildings, the Xingluo Spiritual Transmission Tower is particularly eye-catching and can be regarded as one of the landmark buildings.

After getting off the car, Sun Kong went up the stairs alone with Nan Liujing and Wu Siduo. Wherever the three of them looked, there were many pedestrians, dressed like white-collar workers, holding a cup of coffee, but most of them had no soul power fluctuations.

Nowadays, the Tang Sect has openly established Xuanshi Tangmen Technology Co., Ltd. to develop side businesses. The Spirit Pagoda naturally doesn't rely solely on the sale of souls for profit; it also has numerous side businesses. Many floors of the Xingluo Spirit Pagoda are used for daily office use, making it quite bustling even on weekends.

Entering the first floor of the Spirit Communication Tower, Nan Liujing and Wu Siduo were tired of the magnificent decoration. The only thing that caught their attention was the colorful murals surrounding the dome.

These murals are magnificent, with scenery and figures on them, and seem to record an incomplete story.

There were also many people watching around, and there were constant exclamations of praise.

"I have been to the Xingluo Spirit Pagoda many times with my family elders, but no matter how many times I see the murals, I am still shocked." Wu Siduo looked up and stared at a young man in the mural.

His eyes were particularly bright, and he was surrounded by several souls who had left legendary epics in the history of Douluo Continent.

It was Lingbing Douluo Huo Yuhao. According to legend, he had ascended to the divine realm and became a true god.

Surrounding him were renowned warriors of Huo Yuhao's generation, such as Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi. The murals recorded the stories of their era.

Nan Liujing saw it for the first time and chose to stop and watch.

Sun Kong stopped walking without knowing when, and looked at the two children watching the mural calmly.

"I heard from my father that Lingbing Douluo has a very special status in Xingluo City. This has nothing to do with the Spirit Pagoda." Wu Siduo whispered in Nan Liujing's ear, as if telling a secret.

After knowing that Nan Liujing was her godfather's nephew, Wu Siduo had a natural liking for him and did not feel alienated at all.

The warm breath blew on his ears, and Nan Liujing felt like he was electrocuted. He subconsciously turned his head to ask why, but he happened to be looking at Wu Siduo, less than 20 centimeters apart, and he could hear her breathing.

Each of them reflected the other's delicate face in their pupils, and they were both stunned.

Nan Liujing reacted quickly, quickly looking up at the mural again and calmly asked, "Why?"

Wu Siduo hadn't expected Nan Liujing to suddenly turn his head. She was a bit bewildered at first, but seeing him like this, she suddenly became interested and smiled, "It's said that ten thousand years ago, when the Sun Moon Empire, the predecessor of the Federation, attacked Xingluo City, it was Lingbing Douluo who turned the tide and saved millions of people in the city."

"Although the Federation didn't think highly of Ling Bing Douluo, believing him to be an obstacle to continental unification, the common people in Xing Luo City didn't care and even spontaneously organized a Grilled Fish Festival. The government didn't bother to intervene, so they just turned a blind eye. Today, it has evolved into a true traditional festival."

Nan Liujing had memories of his past life, but this was the first time he heard such a story. He was immediately interested and couldn't help but ask Wu Siduo more questions.

Wu Siduo did not refuse at all and was happy to chat with Nan Liujing in detail.

The two of them chatted back and forth, not noticing that the smile on Sun Kong's face was getting wider and wider.
