Soul Land III: Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 19 – Soul Spirit

Inside the white spirit soul ball, a small child was crawling quietly.

It was really too small, only about ten centimeters in size and as thin as a child's finger. Its body is ground yellow, and if you look at it more closely, a small rhombus-shaped scales can be seen.

“This is spirit soul?” Tang Ziran raised her head and looked towards the Soul Master as she asked in a dubious voice.

Almost everyone will recognize this little thing. This was because it was the commonly seen Snake Grass, a kind of harmless little animal. Although it was a type of snake, it was definitely the weakest of its species.

An adult Snake Grass would be around twenty to thirty centimeters long and finger thick. They can only eat a few small insects.

If you want to be explained in the simplest words, it only takes four. Livestock raised by humans are harmless!

Ever since his martial soul awakened and he discovered that he had spirit power, Tang Wulin had countless fantasies about what his first spirit soul was like. He fantasized that after combining his martial soul with the spirit soul, his martial soul would increase and become strong. That would give him an extremely powerful spirit skill, and he would officially become a Soul Master.

Fantasy is fine, but reality is cruel.

Grass snakes? This was not even a question about his strength, but whether it was really a spirit soul or not.

The Soul Master also stared blankly at this Snake Grass. He sighed softly and said rather bitterly, “When it rains, it will come down. Son, your luck really.. ”.

He knew that artificial spirit souls still depended on the soul genes of the beasts in which they were created. As a result of the gradual extinction of the soul beast, the soul beast genes were also depleted endlessly. The researchers from the Spirit Pagoda had tried many times to use the non-beast soul genes to create spirit souls and see if the results were acceptable.

The experiment was successful, but in reality, the spirit soul created from the gene was extremely weak. Basically, no one wants to buy it.

Without a doubt, this Snake Grass was one of the defective items he had talked about before. Moreover, it was not just any broken item, it was a spirit soul that did not possess the slightest bit of soul beast genes. This spirit soul occupies the hundredth position in the spirit soul extraction machine, and there are hundreds of spirit soul orbs in that machine at all times …

The Soul Master sighed then nodded his head. “I'm sure it's spirit soul, but spirit soul is weak. The spirit soul has been activated after extraction, so you should fuse with it within twenty-four hours. If not, he will die. You can decide for yourself whether you want to combine them. If you don't want to, then you can go back in the future to choose another spirit soul. ”

Tang Ziran looked at her lifeless son and could barely contain the pain in her heart. He held his son's shoulder and said, “Lin Lin, let's go home.”

Tang Wulin remained silent as he started walking away.

“Wait a minute.” The Soul Master couldn't take it anymore, and called out to them.

“You must leave this spirit soul. Although it was a successful trial product, but still it was.. ”Because of compassion, he still continued to explain the origin of this Snake Grass.

Tang Wulin did not know how he could go home, but he had been holding a soul ball close to his heart the entire time. The Snake Grass spirit soul had a very pleasant appearance and was not at all afraid of creeping out of the spirit soul ball. In fact, this kind of low-tier spirit soul did not possess any intelligence. Before joining the martial soul, he could not even react to his surroundings.

Tang Wulin gently shook his head. “Dad, I'll go to my room first.”

Sitting quietly on the side, Na’er got up and followed Tang Wulin into their room.

He sat down on his bed and looked at the spirit soul in his hand, then looked into his callous hands. In the end, tears began to flow uncontrollably on his face.

Even after his martial soul awakened, only to find out it was a trash spirit like the Bluesilver Grass, he did not cry. After all, he had spirit power. As long as he had spirit power, he still had a chance.

His father had told him that his family's condition was not very good. Even when she was told that they had no money to buy a spirit soul for her, she still did not cry. His father had said before that one must take responsibility for one's own affairs. He can earn his own money, while also helping his parents.

When he first arrived at Mang Tian's workshop and had to swing the hammer a thousand times, resulting in a sore arm wanting to break and preventing him from even raising the arm to feed himself, he still hadn't cried. He had invested all his efforts into it and had passed the test, giving him more hope. As long as he had hope, then there was a chance he could succeed.

Countless sweat had poured out as he continued to work every day for the past three years. When his classmates played at home, he would hit metal again and again. He would meditate for a longer time than others, enduring pain and suffering, not shedding any tears. He smiled at everything every day, and would always tell his parents to relax.

But now, she's crying.

He had finally saved up quite a lot of money after three years, and his spirit power had also reached the 10th rank. He's just about to make it. Thirty thousand coins. All of his sweat had condensed into those thirty thousand coins. In the blink of an eye, those thirty thousand coins had turned into this spirit soul with almost nothing in the soul beast genes. All his efforts were like bubbles that easily erupted.

All of his toughness, strength, and determination, in an instant had been shattered and turned into tears. Drop by drop, they flowed.

Droplets of tears dripped onto the spirit soul ball one after another, gradually drenching the little Snake Grass. The Snake Grass wriggled slightly, as if enjoying the taste of salty tears.

A delicate hand stretched out toward him, intending to wipe away his tears. Na’er stood in front of him with swollen red eyes.

At this moment, it was as if their hearts were intertwined. He could feel the pain and suffering in his heart as a whole.

Despair, sadness, and all sorts of dark emotions lingered within Tang Wulin's heart.

Tang Wulin wanted to shout, but it was as if he ran out of all the strength needed to shout at this moment.

“Sister, older brother, don't cry.” Without wiping away the tears, Na’er came forward and carried her head into his embrace.

Tang Wulin choked on his sobs, “Why? Why is Heaven treating me so unfairly? Even after all my efforts, there was not a single chance for me to grasp. I want to be a Soul Master. I want to become a powerful Soul Master! ”
