Chapter 1 Martial Soul Awakening
In the western region outside Heaven Dou City on the Douluo Continent, rolling mountains stretch endlessly. Ancient and grand buildings, full of old-world charm, are scattered among them. This is the habitat of the number one beast spirit family in the world—the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
Today is the sixth birthday of Yu Tianyun, the grandson of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect Master.
At this moment, our protagonist, Yu Tianyun, accompanied by his parents and his elder brother Yu Tianheng, who had just returned home, is heading to the main hall where Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen resides. As the Sect Master, Yu Yuanzhen's residence is located at the summit of Jade Dragon Mountain, the core area of the entire sect.
Upon reaching the summit, the first thing that catches the eye is a magnificent yet simple and ancient hall.
The roof of the main hall is golden. Whenever a heavy thunderstorm comes, large fireballs, the size of basins, will appear around the golden hall and roll back and forth. They are dazzling and will make a loud noise like the collapse of the sky and the cracking of the earth when they collide with anything.
Sometimes, lightning would rip through the sky like a sharp sword cleaving the golden palace. In an instant, the golden peak of Jade Dragon Mountain would radiate thousands of rays of light, shooting straight into the sky. From dozens of miles away, one could see the red light shooting into the sky above Jade Dragon Peak. The scene was like a volcanic eruption, breathtaking, magical, and magnificent.
At this moment, two elderly men were already seated in the main hall. The one sitting in the main seat was an old man dressed in a long black robe. His face was resolute, and his eyes were as mysterious and unfathomable as the deep starry sky.
He is Yu Tianyun's grandfather—Yu Yuanzhen!
Although the old man was advanced in years, he was still in good health and full of energy, as if time had not left many marks on him. He sat there upright, as steady as a mountain, exuding an aura of awe.
Seated to his left was an elderly man with a ruddy face and narrow eyes. This man was Yu Luomian—Yu Yuanzhen's younger brother, Yu Xiaogang's second uncle, Liu Erlong's biological father, and Yu Tianxin's grandfather.
These two people are sitting here to witness Yu Tianyun's martial soul awakening.
After Yu Xiaogang awakened Luo Sanpao, becoming a disgrace to Blue Lightning, and after the Spirit Hall issued a warrant for Tang Hao's arrest, Yu Yuanzhen stopped allowing his direct descendants to openly awaken their spirits.
Firstly, they were worried that a similar situation to Yu Xiaogang might occur among their direct descendants; secondly, they feared that if a descendant with exceptional talent were to emerge, it would attract the attention of the Spirit Hall.
Although Yu Yuanzhen was arrogant, he was not stupid. Now he was seventy-seven years old, but he still had not been able to break through to level 96.
He had a premonition that this might be the end of his life.
As long as there are no serious hidden injuries, a Title Douluo can eventually break through to level 94 from level 91 to level 94, given enough time.
The difference between level 94 and level 95 mainly depends on the quality of the martial soul. Title Douluo with a top-tier martial soul will definitely be able to break through level 95, but the bottleneck between level 96 and level 95 is like an insurmountable chasm.
To break through to level 96, one cannot rely solely on martial spirit talent; comprehension is also necessary.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is now suffering from a decline in talent. Among the younger generation, only Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin have the potential to break through to the Title Douluo level, but their talents are not yet top-notch. Both of them are at level 8 innate soul power.
Among the middle-aged generation, only Yu Xiaofeng broke through to the Soul Saint level three years ago. Yu Xiaofeng is the father of Yu Tianyun and Yu Tianheng. He is 45 years old this year, and in the future, he will most likely only be able to become a Soul Douluo. His hope of breaking through to the Title Douluo level is slim.
Yu Luomian turned to look at Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen and said in a deep voice, "Brother, Xiaoyun has been smart and diligent since she was a child."
When Tianheng and Tianxin were his age, they were only good at playing and didn't know many words.
As for Tianyun, he already knew all the characters two years ago and often went to the library to read books.
Two years ago, after Xiaoyun discovered the secret that whale gelatin could improve physical fitness, these three rascals kept urging me to go to Hanhai City to buy more.
Both Tianheng and Tianxin's second soul rings are nearly nine hundred years old, indicating their unlimited potential.
I don't know what level of soul power Xiaoyun can awaken, but it certainly won't be worse than those two.
Looking at his younger brother's increasingly round face, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't help but sigh and said in a deep voice, "As long as Tianyun can awaken the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul without any unexpected incidents, that's fine."
Yu Luomian knew his elder brother's worries, fearing that his grandson would end up like Yu Xiaogang, so he said no more.
At this moment, Yu Xiaofeng led his family into the hall.
"Tianyun is here, so Xiaofeng, you'll be in charge of the awakening." Yu Yuanzhen smiled, a rare smile on his face, when he saw his favorite grandson arrive.
"Yes, Father." Yu Xiaofeng took out six black stones and a bright blue crystal ball from his storage soul tool. At the same time, a burst of lightning flashed all over Yu Xiaofeng's body. After a blue lightning symbol condensed between his eyebrows, seven bright halos of yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black appeared from his feet.
He used his soul power to make the six black stones form a hexagonal pattern on the ground around Yu Tianyun.
"Don't be afraid, close your eyes and feel carefully." Yu Xiaofeng swiftly clapped his hands, and six blue and white bolts of lightning were injected into the six black stones on the ground. Instantly, golden light was released from the stones, forming a golden light shield that enveloped Yu Tianyun.
Yu Tianyun felt as if he were enveloped in sunshine, warm and comfortable, with a warm aura continuously permeating his body.
Immediately afterwards, drawn by that warm energy, it felt as if something inside her was about to break free.
Suddenly, Yu Tianyun's face stiffened, and his body trembled slightly. The power within him seemed too great to control.
This is unavoidable. The awakening of a martial soul is about letting the martial soul dormant in the body break out of its shell. For a six-year-old child, this is by no means an easy task.
Having never controlled a martial soul before, the initial acceptance was naturally extremely difficult.
Suddenly, a series of dragon roars echoed in his mind, and bursts of electricity appeared on his body, eventually converging at his brow to form a blue lightning bolt symbol.
Everyone who saw the lightning symbol breathed a sigh of relief, and Yu Yuanzhen, who was sitting at the head of the table, also smiled with relief.
Because his second son's martial soul mutated into a pig, Yu Yuanzhen was always worried that his grandson might also have the same problem. Fortunately, his eldest grandson was fine, and now his youngest grandson has also awakened the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex without any surprise.
"Now let's test your innate soul power. Tianyun, place your right hand on this crystal ball," Yu Xiaofeng said.
Yu Tianyun knew the procedure clearly, so he reached out to the crystal ball. Instantly, he felt his soul power go out of control and surge into the crystal ball.
Yu Tianyun did not stop it, letting it flow in. As the soul power continued to pour in, a ray of light shone from the crystal ball. In an instant, the light spread rapidly until it filled the entire crystal ball.
Gazing at the shimmering crystal ball, Yu Yuanzhen and Yu Luomian, who were sitting in their chairs, suddenly stood up, pushed Yu Xiaofeng aside, and tightly grasped Yu Tianyun's small hand.
"Good! Good! Good! My Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect finally has a successor!" Yu Yuanzhen laughed loudly.
"Brother, I knew Tianyun was smart from a young age, and his innate soul power would definitely be high. Sure enough, he has full innate soul power." Yu Luomian said with a smile.
"Haha, Second Brother, you're right. However, pass down the order that Tianyun's innate soul power is at level eight. Also, you few must not spread the news that Tianyun has awakened to full innate soul power. Anyone who violates this rule will be expelled from the family!" Yu Yuanzhen said solemnly after laughing.
"Yes, elder brother/father/grandfather," the group replied, bowing their heads.
