Chapter 1: Soul Awakening
Douluo Continent: Tiandou Empire: Shuofeng City
Qinghe Village.
Today is annual Soul Awakening Day.
"Hoe, innate soul power level 0.
it's a pity that you can't become a soul master."
'"Rag, innate soul power level 0..."
"Blue Silver Grass innate soul power level 0..."
As one child after another walked back disappointedly, a little boy in the crowd couldn't help but get nervous.
The boy's eyes were bright and he had a pair of heroic sword eyebrows.
He was not from this world, but was reincarnated. He was abandoned by his parents in this life just after his rebirth.
Fortunately, he was picked up by the old village chief.
The old village chief's surname was Gu, so he was also surnamed Gu in this life, called Gu Han, a very ordinary name.
"Next."
Soon, Gu Han was in the order of soul awakening.
Hearing the call of the soul master in charge of this awakening, Gu Han obediently stepped into the middle of the six awakening stones.
"Close your eyes, feel the changes in your soul power, and then spread out your right hand."
Lu Rentao, a staff member of the Spirit Hall, had two soul rings, one white and one yellow. With the pull of his soul power, Gu Han felt that something was coming out of his body.
Unlike Tang San, who filled the room with golden light, his awakening was very ordinary.
When he spread out his hand, he saw a long sword that was all dark blue.
At the same time, an unnamed martial arts book suddenly appeared in his mind.
As long as he closed his eyes and calmed down, he could see the contents of the book.
Moreover, this book was magical. Gu Han had not studied the knowledge of meridians and breathing.
But after seeing this book, he was able to understand it, and he could also easily practice according to the method marked on it.
After a little trial, as expected, the soul power in his body circulated in the various meridians in his body according to the conditions marked in the book, and finally returned to the lower dantian.
"It's a sword, a pretty good weapon spirit. Let's see if you have spirit power."
After seeing the long sword in Gu Han's hand, Lu Rentao's heart was moved. Perhaps there will be a spirit master this year, and then his performance will be able to add a sum.
After each spirit master is discovered, the person in charge of awakening will receive corresponding bonuses and merits.
Thinking of this, Lu Rentao took out a crystal ball.
"Come on, kid, put your hand on it, and then send your spirit power into it."
"Okay...
Gu Han nodded and put his hand on the crystal ball. The crystal ball then lit up with a faint blue light, occupying half of the crystal.
"Innate spirit power level five!!"
Lu Rentao opened his eyes wide in surprise. He didn't expect that he had discovered a genius. This is a true spirit king. If he works hard, he may even become a spirit emperor.
If he can pull him into the Spirit Hall, he may be able to go further in the future.
Thinking of this, Lu Rentao squatted down and sincerely extended his hand:
"Child, congratulations, you can become an excellent spirit master. Our Spirit has the most generous resources and teachers in the whole continent. Are you willing to join the Spirit Hall?"
"I want to ask the village head grandfather."
Gu Han did not respond directly to the other party, but even if he joined the Spirit Hall, it would be fine.
After all these years of understanding, he learned that the Spirit Hall Pope at this time was still Qian Xunji, and he had just ascended the position of Pope for a few years.
In other words, it is still a long time before the original plot, and it would be fine for him to join the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the Spirit Hall can indeed be of great help to him as a civilian Soul master, and the Spirit Hall also helped him awaken his Martial Soul. Even if he does not join the Spirit Hall, he will not be hostile.
As for asking the village head grandfather, it is mainly because he wants to go to school locally first, and then go to a larger city for development.
"Okay, Old Gu is outside, I'll take you to see him."
Lu Rentao nodded. Gu Han happened to be the last child to awaken. Just when the matter was resolved, he just asked Old Gu for his opinion.
"Okay, kids, the martial soul awakening ceremony is complete, everyone follow me out."
Lu Rentao waved his hand and walked out of the village's martial soul hall with a few children.
When he saw everyone coming out, the old village chief Gu hurriedly stepped forward and asked carefully.
"Lord Soul Master, are there any children who have awakened their soul power this year?"
"Of course, it's this child. He awakened an ice-attributed sword and has a fifth level innate soul power."
Lu Rentao's attitude was obviously much better.
"Xiao Han, I was right. You will really become a soul master!"
Hearing this, the old village chief Gu was immediately excited. Although he was just encouraging him casually at the time, he didn't really hope that this picked-up child could awaken his martial soul and become a soul master.
But when he heard the lord soul master say that Gu Han had awakened his martial soul, he was excited and his attitude towards what he said before changed slightly in his heart.
"Grandpa, don't get excited. The soul master has something to say." Seeing his grandfather's enthusiastic eyes, Gu Han couldn't stand it and quickly changed the subject.
"Ahem, old Gu, I invited this child to join the Spirit Hall before, and this child said he wanted to seek your opinion."
Lu Rentao coughed lightly and talked about business.
"Yes, yes, of course I am willing, how can I not be willing?"
Upon hearing this, the old village chief Gu nodded repeatedly. Although there are quotas for part-time students in the village, if he join the Spirit Hall, they will not need this quota.
Not only can they save a lot of tuition fees, but in the future, when Xiao Han reaches level 10, the soul masters of the Spirit Hall will also help him hunt for soul rings.
There is no reason to refuse such a good thing.
Gu Han did not object to this. He did not dislike the Spirit Hall, and with his current status, joining the Spirit Hall would be quite convenient for him.
The reason why he asked his grandfather for his opinion was mainly because he wanted to make the old man happy and let him feel a little involved.
"In this case, the tuition and other living needs of this child will be borne by the Spirit Hall.
Go back and pack up, and report to the Spirit Hall branch in Shuofeng City in a few days."
Seeing that things were going well, Lu Rentao calmed down, but he could not hide his joy.
The reason why he couldn't return today was mainly because he still had to go many villages to awaken martial soul and he didn't have time to go back in a short time.
So he could only let the other party pack up and go into the city by himself. Anyway, the journey was not far, and it was enough to have an adult follow him.
For Lu Rentao's words, the old village chief Gu naturally nodded in agreement.
After respectfully seeing Lu Rentao off, the old village chief Gu excitedly took Gu Han's hand and returned home.
Looking at the old village chief Gu who was rummaging through the boxes, Gu Han asked in confusion:
"Grandpa, what are you looking for?"
Old Gu did not speak, but lay under the bed, opened a small brick, and took out a wooden box from the bottom.
"Grandpa, what is this?"
Gu Han was puzzled.
Old Gu took out a cloth bag from the wooden box, sat down at the wooden table and opened it.
Inside was a bag of gold soul coins and a white jade pendant with an exquisite small sword carved on it, just like his martial soul.
"Xiao Han, you also know that you are a child picked up by your grandfather. These things were placed in your cradle back then.
Grandpa has been keeping them for you. Now it's time to give them to you."
Old Gu took Gu Han's hand and put these things in Gu Han's hand.
Looking at the bag of gold soul coins and the white jade pendant in his hand, Gu Han put the gold soul coins back on the table and only held the jade pendant, which might be left by his parents in this life, in his hand.
"Xiao Han, what are you doing?"
"Grandpa, keep this money. The villagers have been very good to me over the years.
You can use this money to improve everyone's life."
Gu Han took two steps back, summoned his martial soul Mysterious Ice Sword, pretended to play with it for a few times, and smiled.
"Besides, I will become a soul master in the future. This money is just child's play for me in the future."
"You kid, you also know that it will be in the future. Now you should take this first, and it will be convenient for you to buy things you need in school in the future."
Old Gu smiled and touched Gu Han's head.
Gu Han felt a little warm in his heart. In order not to let the old man feel disappointed, he finally took five coins symbolically.
"Grandpa, I don't need so much money. Five coins are enough."
"sigh, you kid..."
Old Gu sighed. This child has been sensible since he was a child. He also knew the child's character.
Seeing that the other party was like this, he didn't insist anymore. However, he still planned to keep the money for Gu Han so that he could take it out in case he needed it.
"Grandpa, it's still early. I still have to finish today's exercise."
"Go."
Upon hearing this, old Gu waved his hand.
He said he was going home to pack up, but in fact he didn't have anything to bring.
Gu Han started running for a period of time every day since last year. Although the effect was average, it did make his body stronger than that of ordinary children and less likely to get sick.
After leaving home, Gu Han trotted all the way to the stream at the head of the village, sat on the big rock where he often rested, and studied the nameless method from book in his mind.
Although he didn't know what it was, he was sure that it was definitely not a product of Douluo Continent.
The records about meridians and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in it were not what Douluo Continent should have at all.
This might be the so-called golden finger of his.
Gu Han tried to operate this exercise again according to the records and instructions in the book.
Gradually, Gu Han only felt that there were many magical energies between heaven and earth slowly entering his limbs and bones, and entering the position of the lower dantian along his meridians.
This feeling was very comfortable. For a moment, Gu Han completely forgot about the time. It was not until he heard the call of the old village chief Gu that he slowly exited this state.
When he opened his eyes again, it was already dusk.
"Is it so late already?"
Gu Han shook his head. In his feeling, he had only sat for a short while. He did not expect that he had sat from noon to dusk all of a sudden.
"Xiao Han, don't sit there. Go back and eat."
The voice of the old Gu came again.
"I know, Grandpa."
Gu Han no longer cared about this matter. He jumped up from the big rock and followed the old village chief home.
He could not confirm his soul power level now, but in this short afternoon, his soul power increased a lot, and he could clearly feel that the purity of his soul power was much stronger than before.
"It seems that this technique can not only speed up the practice, but also make the soul power more pure."
Thinking of this, Gu Han's mouth curled up a little confidently. With this nameless method, even if his innate soul power is low, does it matter?.
He can still become a Titled Douluo, or even a God.
Thinking of this, a feeling of excitement rose in Gu Han's heart.
