Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

A light shout was heard suddenly, and Lin Xiao was startled. His soul power had already gathered in his palm.

He didn't notice any other presence here, and even the assassin couldn't see any other people.

As his feet moved, a ripple spread out gently, and the decoration that Lin Xiao had just seen made a "ding-dong" sound again.

He instantly understood that the thing was not a decoration at all, but an alarm device.

There may be many ways to hide the breath under the sea, but as long as there is any movement, the sea water will change and those things will make sounds.

Time was running out, and before Lin Xiao had time to think about how to avoid it, the decoration started to make noises again.

Someone is coming.

Lin Xiao knew in his heart that this was a change in the water flow caused by other people approaching.

Lin Xiao took a big gulp of sea water, and the air contained in it made his mind calm down a little. He controlled his body not to make any other movements, and only his soul power flowed rapidly in his meridians.

Before coming here, he had already thought about the scenario of being discovered. Now that he can move freely under the sea, as long as the other party's cultivation level is not too outrageous, he has a way to escape.

"Sister, are you back?"

Another crisp sound was heard, and Lin Xiao frowned slightly.

The sister of the Sea Princess?

Lin Xiao quickly dismissed this idea. If the sister of the 600,000-year-old sea princess could survive until now, her cultivation would not be too bad. Under the perception of the mermaid clan who are good at mental power, she should have been discovered long ago.

Maybe someone else...

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao looked around the room again and suddenly realized that the information the Great Elder told him seemed a little outdated.

No wonder the Great Elder never told me that there were so many buildings here besides the palace before I actually came here.

Perhaps when the Great Elder came here, this place did not look like this. This may have really been the residence of the Sea Princess, but now, the owner of this room has changed.

Before Lin Xiao could think about it, a figure had already entered the room. A pair of beautiful eyes looked around, and the fish tail behind him swayed gently, causing the decoration to make continuous noises.

Lin Xiao swung his left arm violently, and a light silver luster appeared. A short metal blade had already formed on his arm.

He stepped heavily on the ground and shot towards the back of the figure like an arrow. The short blade on his arm cut through the water and was about to land on the figure's neck.

Lin Xiao didn't really want to kill people in the mermaid's palace... Killing fish would inevitably cause chaos, and might even lure the Sea Princess back.

All he had to do was control the person in front of him and prevent her from making any sound.

However, just as he was approaching rapidly, the figure suddenly turned around, their eyes met, and a clear voice rang out from her mouth, "Are you the guest Mom was talking about?"

Lin Xiao paused his left hand, and the short blade on his arm quickly disappeared.

"guest?"

"Yes, Mom said that some guests were coming, and then she took my sisters and the others out."

Lin Xiao frowned, looking at the mermaid in front of him who was similar in shape to himself, trying to tell from her face whether she was really naive or just pretending to be that way.

"Aren't you a guest?"

"No." Lin Xiao shook his head, then suddenly changed his tone, "I mean I'm the guest your mother mentioned."

"That's what I told you." The mermaid nodded and looked at Lin Xiao carefully for a few more times. "What kind of soul beast are you? I don't think I've ever felt this kind of aura from you."

"Since you can transform into a human form, you must have survived a calamity, right?"

"I heard that humans call soul beasts that have survived the heavenly tribulation fierce beasts. I've seen the place where humans live from afar before, but when I came back, my mother scolded me severely."

Lin Xiao didn't say anything, but just stared at the mermaid's serious eyes and felt slightly relieved.

It seems that the larynx given to him by the Great Elder worked. He could breathe freely in the sea water like other sea soul beasts, which caused the mermaid in front of him, who was not very worldly-wise, to misunderstand.

"Where are mom and sister? Didn't they come back with you?"

"They still have some things to deal with, so they asked me to go to your mother's place and wait, but I seem to have found the wrong place." Lin Xiao said calmly.

"Then your last visit must have been quite early. I've only just arrived in the Hundred Thousand Years, and my memories from before are a bit hazy. No wonder I don't seem to have seen you before."

The mermaid in front of him smiled and said, "This is where Mom lived before. But after my sister and I broke through the 100,000-year mark, Mom gave this place to us to live in."

"You're going to where Mom lives... Then come with me."

Watching the mermaid swimming forward, Lin Xiao also slowly followed.

Soul beasts are different from humans after all. Ten thousand years ago, they only had the instincts of wild beasts. Ten thousand years later, they had the consciousness of soul beasts. Not until their cultivation broke through 100,000 years did they have wisdom comparable to that of humans.

In other words, the mermaid in front of him had just broken through the 100,000-year-old mark. If he had more experience, he would probably understand that even if he was a guest, he had no right to break into someone else's residence for no reason.

"I don't know your name yet?" Lin Xiao suddenly spoke.

"Me? You can call me Liya."

Chapter 180 Mermaids Singing Together

Such a coincidence?

As he was about to go out, Lin Xiao was still a little worried. He planned to get closer while the mermaid in front of him was distracted by talking, so that he could deal with any accidents easily.

However, after hearing this name, his heart moved slightly.

If I remember correctly, this mermaid named Liya was the vengeful soul that was later taken into the Ten Thousand Souls Banner by Ten Thousand Souls Douluo.

Thinking of this, he remembered Wanhun Douluo and Hate Douluo who came to the beach with him.

They came here with the Great Elder not just to lure the Sea Princess away so they could steal the Ocean Heart, but for other purposes...

"It sounds nice, right? What's your name?"

"My name is Shen Hao." Lin Xiao brought up the name again.

"Shen Hao? It sounds like the name of those humans outside." Liya repeated softly.

"Are you interested in the human world?"

"Yes, although my mother didn't allow me, I used to sneak to places near the coast." There was some excitement in Liya's tone.

"Those humans' mental strength is too weak to detect me. I have seen the tools they made. Some can float on the sea, and some can dive into the deep sea like us."

"But they can't go too deep."

Listening to Liya's description, Lin Xiao could probably guess that she had encountered the soul guide device that the Sun-Moon Empire was testing.

The sea is so vast, and there are countless sea soul beasts in it. The people of the Sun and Moon Empire will naturally not let go of this unmined treasure.

In Mingde Hall, Lin Xiao had seen many soul guides similar to the submarines in his memory, but he was not clear about the specific progress.

"It's better to stay away from humans in the future." Lin Xiao looked at Liya's back and sighed softly.

"Why are you saying the same thing as my mother? Don't worry, if there is any danger I will dive into the sea and they can't catch up with me."

As Liya was speaking, she suddenly stopped.

Lin Xiao frowned and subconsciously raised his left arm.

But the next moment, Liya raised her hand and pointed to a room in front of her. "We're here. Mom said I just arrived a short time ago and she was a little worried about me, so she didn't live too far away."

"Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome." Liya's fish tail swung gently, "I'll take you there."

Lin Xiao nodded and continued to follow. As the two of them passed through a water curtain, the "ding-dong" sound from before rang out again.

Unlike the room just now, as soon as Lin Xiao stepped into the Sea Princess's residence, he felt a strong force of heaven and earth filling the entire room, and its source...

Glancing sideways, he saw a long table on one side and a small shrine on the other. A fine pearl curtain covered the front of the shrine, making it difficult to see what the statue inside looked like.

On the other side is a spherical ornament, which is surrounded by a thin layer of water curtain into a spherical shape. Inside is a group of blue hexagonal crystals, floating gently.

As soon as he got closer, a powerful mental force emanated from the water curtain, making Lin Xiao dizzy.

Lin Xiao calmed himself down, and clarity returned to his eyes.

This feeling was somewhat similar to the water curtain he had passed through at the beginning, but the power was much greater, or rather...

The water curtain outside this building comes from here.

Is this really something I can get?

Lin Xiao stood in front of the long table and did not move.

Just by passing through the layer of mist outside the building, he fell into the illusion again. If he wanted to pass through this seemingly ordinary spherical object in front of him, he was afraid that as soon as he stretched out his hand, he would be completely dispersed by the powerful mental power in it.

"Are you looking at this?" Liya also came over. "My mother said that this contains the last remaining spiritual power of all the deceased members of our tribe. It protects the treasure of our mermaid clan. Even we, who are not royals, cannot retrieve the contents."

"Hahahaha-"

As soon as she finished speaking, a loud laugh suddenly rang out in the room. Liya turned her head sharply to look at Lin Xiao, only to see that Lin Xiao also had a look of shock on his face, and he lowered his head to look at his right wrist.

I saw that a light blue scale had grown on Lin Xiao's right wrist at some point, and it was emitting a faint glow. The voice just now came from the scale.

“You did a great job.”

"Great Elder..." Lin Xiao's face looked a little ugly.

During the time he was under the deep sea, he was under the pressure of the sea water all the time, and it was common for him to experience pain from time to time. In addition, his right wrist was always held by the Great Elder, so he did not notice anything unusual.

And just as he adapted to the water pressure in the deep sea, he also inadvertently adapted to the extra scales on his body.

In the blink of an eye, light blue scales had densely covered Lin Xiao's entire right arm, carrying his body into the water curtain.

In an instant, a tremendous pressure came towards Lin Xiao, as if countless mermaids were singing in unison. In Lin Xiao's spiritual sea, the river symbolizing spiritual power had gushed out of the river channel and splashed in the air.

The entire spiritual sea was in constant turmoil, and even the light gray mist on Alex's side began to surge.

The seemingly simple layer of water mist contained the spiritual power left by countless mermaids over tens or even hundreds of thousands of years. Even though Lin Xiao's spiritual power was far superior to that of ordinary people, at this moment, his consciousness was rushed out of his body and he unconsciously appeared in the sea of ​​​​spirituality.

"teacher?"

Lin Xiao called out softly, and the blurry figure of Electrolux slowly appeared in the gray fog.

"Ah, what an unfortunate child." Alex sighed softly, "It's also my fault for not noticing what she left behind in you."

"No, this is not the teacher's fault." Lin Xiao shook his head and looked up at his surging spiritual sea. "It's all my fault."

"I have always been cautious, but later, I first killed a Titled Douluo with my Soul Sage cultivation, and later became your disciple to learn the undead magic of another world."

"Although it's not very obvious, I'm definitely not as cautious as I used to be. Some of the things the Holy Spirit Church taught me seem to have gradually faded from my memory."

At this point, Lin Xiao turned slightly to look at Electrolux, "Teacher, can the method you mentioned earlier to avoid danger be used now?"
