Chapter 1: Innate Full Soul Power, Only Years of Life Remaining?
"Ouch—that hurts!"
Lin Huai rubbed his head, feeling as if a strange memory had appeared in his mind.
Lin Huai then realized that he was actually a time traveler.
Before dying in my previous life.
I'm planning to ask out a female senior with a curvaceous figure.
Let's go play in the snow on the high mountains and experience the seclusion of the canyons.
Unexpectedly, it was taken away by a truck.
He had only lived in Douluo Continent for six years before awakening his memories of his past life.
"Damn, the king is indeed the king. Not only did he travel through time without pain, but he also gave away six years of free warm-up time."
"It's such a pity about my sexy senior. I wonder which lucky guy will end up with her."
Lin Huai looked distressed.
Looking towards the magnificent palace where people were queuing to enter.
"Luckily, I survived to the point of awakening my martial soul. Relying on my memories from my previous life, as long as things don't start with a cataclysmic disaster, I might be able to experience even more mountains and valleys in this life!"
Follow the procession into the temple.
The person in charge of the awakening of martial spirit ceremony was a cardinal with a serious expression.
He looked at the little boy at the front of the line.
Let's do it in order.
The little boy clenched his fists, took a deep breath, and walked to the center of the formation.
The cardinal gave a low shout, "Possessed by a demon cat."
The bishop's form changed, and soon, seven spirit rings appeared: two yellow, two purple, and three black.
Clearly, this bishop is a Soul Saint level expert.
"Beast Martial Soul, Dumb Duck, Innate Soul Power Level 3, go register over there."
"Weapon spirit: hoe; innate spirit power: zero."
……
As time passed, it was finally Lin Huai's turn, who was filled with excitement.
Enter the Awakening Formation with anticipation.
It's unclear what kind of martial soul they will awaken.
In this life, I was also an orphan, growing up in Sacred Tree Village relying on charity.
As the bishop's soul power was channeled into him, Lin Huai felt a warmth filling his body.
Under Lin Huai's excited gaze, a tall figure appeared to the side.
She had long, crimson hair that reached her waist, and wore an ornate helmet with wings on both sides.
Her right arm, left leg, and lower right leg were all fitted with prosthetics made of a metal that resembled gold.
The right arm armor also has a slender, handleless longsword engraved with intricate patterns.
The exposed skin had many burn marks that looked like they had been scalded by flames.
"It's actually a humanoid martial soul! That's rare. Quickly put away the martial soul and test its soul power!"
The bishop quickly handed over the crystal ball.
Unlike the bishop's excitement, Lin Huai's heart was pounding.
The figure was none other than Valkyrie Malenia, the popular boss from the game "Elden Ring" in my previous life.
It's not that she's not strong; on the contrary, Marlenia's martial soul is definitely no less powerful than a god-level martial soul like the Six-Winged Angel.
However, Malenia in the game possesses a terrifying curse that even the gods cannot deal with—
Crimson corruption!
Lin Huai's chest heaved rapidly, and it took him several attempts to finally retract his martial spirit.
When I placed my trembling hand on the crystal ball, it immediately emitted a dazzling light.
The cardinal suddenly approached and examined the crystal ball closely.
"Innate full soul power! Six years have passed, and after Miss Hu Liena and the other two, another child with extraordinary talent has finally appeared!"
"Damn! This is a disastrous start."
Lin Huai stared intently at the burn-like marks that had appeared on his right hand. His heart pounded faster and faster. Suddenly, everything went black, and he collapsed to the ground.
……
"An unfamiliar ceiling, where am I..." Lin Huai slowly opened his eyes.
"This is the treatment room. You fainted after awakening your martial soul." Lin Huai sat up.
She looked at the handsome middle-aged man with blond hair and golden eyes standing to the side.
"I am the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall. During my examination, I discovered a strange power within you. It was this power that caused you to faint, and the sudden injury on your hand should also be caused by this power," Qian Daoliu continued.
"I don't know what that thing is either. It appeared after I awakened my martial soul. My martial soul also has many scars similar to the ones on my hands."
Lin Huai stared down at his right hand, which was gripping the bed sheet tightly, then cautiously looked up at Qian Daoliu.
"Great Master, do you know how to deal with this force?"
"Summon your martial spirit, let me take a look."
Lin Huai circulated his soul power, and the Marlenia Martial Soul reappeared.
Qian Daoliu frowned. "Your martial spirit is very strong, especially the hiltless longsword in her right hand. Just looking at it, you can feel its sharpness and extraordinary nature. Moreover, I can't even sense the specific details of this martial spirit."
"However, it can be concluded that the strange power in your body comes from your martial soul, and it is extremely ferocious in its manifestation on your martial soul."
Qian Daoliu looked at Marlenia's prosthetic limb and her already eroded face, and sighed: "If nothing unexpected happens, you may only have ten years to live, and that's without absorbing soul rings or cultivating soul power."
Lin Huai pursed his lips and looked at the traces of decay on Marlenia's face.
He certainly knew the horror of crimson corruption, something even gods were powerless against.
The thought that he would only live to be a teenager in this life brought a bitter smile to his face.
Qian Daoliu looked at the pitiful boy and handed him a palm-sized golden token.
"You can stay in the Spirit Hall. I will have someone make arrangements for you. You should go to the library more often and read some books, combining them with existing theories, to see if you can find a glimmer of hope."
Then, Sendo Ryu's figure disappeared from the treatment room.
Lin Huai lay back on the bed and pressed his arm against his forehead.
"What a piece of shit!"
The causal law of "planting the flag" is so strong, it's a cataclysmic start!
Lin Huai turned to look at Marlenia, the martial spirit who was still standing by the bed.
Looking at the areas on her face that had not yet been eroded by the crimson decay, I noticed Marlenia's prosthetic limbs and her eyes that had already been corrupted.
"No, I have to live!"
Lin Huai suddenly sat up and gripped the token in his hand tightly.
Retracting his martial spirit, Lin Huai resolutely walked towards the library.
After Lin Huai showed the token to the person in charge of the library.
Lin Huai was granted a place to live and the right to freely access all the books.
Lin Huai began his life-saving journey, which revolved around two points.
The first month yielded no results.
In the third month, there was no harvest.
In half a year, Lin Huai had roughly read through all the existing theories of martial spirits, but still hadn't gained anything.
So I started reading some niche books, such as strange tales and autobiographies.
In the past six months, Lin Huai discovered that his memory was incredibly good; he could remember almost everything he had ever seen.
Lin Huai had tried to cultivate, but each time he tried, the power of corruption would become unusually active, and the cultivation would come to nothing.
During the past six months of comprehending my martial soul, I discovered that Marlenia would be very beautiful if she hadn't been corrupted, and the parts that hadn't been corrupted were also quite soft and tender.
They also discovered a built-in domain—the Scarlet Corruption Domain.
The domain is quite powerful. The Soft Bone Rabbit used for experiments when it was activated instantly lost its life force, and it can also make Lin Huai's prosthetic knife inflict crimson corruption when attacking.
When the domain is activated, the power of corruption is like a husky running wild or a runaway horse.
……
"No, no! Am I really going to just wait to die like this?" With bloodshot eyes, Lin Huai put "Douluo Journey" on the table.
Lin Huai leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and began to sort through the information he already had in his mind.
Why don't we take a gamble on the Ice and Fire Refinement Golden Body?
Forget it, let's not even talk about how the effects of the immortal herb are mainly to enhance talent and soul power, and my own Crimson Corruption isn't poison either.
Moreover, I don't want to face that unpredictable Poison Douluo unless absolutely necessary.
Divine Exam?
Neither of them is something I can obtain right now.
"Having lived two lives, I've never experienced snow-capped peaks or deep valleys. I'm not satisfied!"
Lin Huai slowly sat up straight, looking at the erosion that had spread to his forearm, his eyes filled with determination: "Damn it, I'll fight! How can a transmigrator die such a pathetic death!"
Lin Huai left his seat and walked towards the offering hall.
