Chapter 12 Mu Xi: So embarrassing!
Mu Xi returned to her soul guide car and saw Mu Chen had come over and was talking to an old man. She didn't interrupt them and stood aside to listen to them.
Seeing this, Mu Chen didn't chase him away, after all, it wasn't an important conversation.
"President Mu is fine. He bought a lot of rare treasures for your daughter." The old man also glanced at Mu Xi, shook his head and smiled, "I, an old man, made a wasted trip."
Mu Chen smiled bitterly, "The Soul Pagoda has a close relationship with the two major soul beast gathering places, and there is no shortage of ten thousand year souls. Who would have thought that Hua Yichen would be interested in that soul?"
"Huh?" The old man was a little surprised, "President Mu doesn't know? The ten thousand year soul was provided by the Shen family, and it was aimed at the child next to Hua Yichen from the beginning."
"No one in their clan can accommodate the evil eye tyrant soul, so they want to make a deal with the Soul Pagoda to get a soul suitable for inheritance. As a result, a genius with innate full soul power and a spiritual attribute martial soul appeared, which gave them an opportunity."
Mu Chen and Mu Xi who were listening were stunned and secretly shocked.
Innate full soul power? Top-level martial soul?
Either way, it is a very rare existence in Donghai City.
Muchen was the first to come to his senses. "Recently, I have been busy with the affairs of the association, so I haven't paid attention to the movements of the Spirit Pagoda. Is that child special? Is he the core child of which family of the Spirit Pagoda?"
"Neither. According to investigations, he was born in a civilian family in Donghai City."
The old man sighed softly. "That is why he is more special. Hua Yichen even arranged a Soul Douluo to protect him secretly. I am afraid that it is not just as simple as full innate soul power and body martial soul, but also other extraordinary features."
"Soul Douluo..."
Muchen was secretly shocked.
Donghai City is located in a remote area of Douluo Continent. Although the economy is very developed, the strength of the soul masters is relatively weak. There are not many strong people with ten thousand year souls. There is only one nine-ring titled Douluo in the open, that is, the free and easy Douluo of the Spirit Pagoda - Hua Yichen!
Under Hua Yichen, the strongest souls in the East Sea Spirit Pagoda are two Soul Douluos, one of whom was actually sent to protect Huo Yuhao. It can be imagined that the Spirit Pagoda values Huo Yuhao.
The old man continued, "The Spirit Pagoda has now replaced the Spirit Hall of 20,000 years ago, and it awakens spirits for civilians for free. Civilian spirit masters are naturally close to them. After the great waves, they can always harvest top talents, and they have close relationships with spirit beasts, and they are getting stronger and stronger."
Mu Chen coughed lightly and reminded:
"Mr. Li, be careful with your words. The Spirit Pagoda and the Spirit Hall are still different."
Mr. Li was stunned, then smiled, "Look at you, what are you thinking about? Of course I know they are different. My family used to be a civilian, and I have to inherit the Spirit Pagoda's love. I have no objection to them helping civilians awaken their spirits for free."
"I just feel that they are rich. Whether it is your Forging Association, our Mecha Master Association, or other forces, they are not capable of doing such a thing. Only the Spirit Pagoda is rich enough to rival a country, so it is willing to spend a lot of money every year to do such a thing. It is natural for civilian geniuses to join the Spirit Pagoda."
Mu Chen fell silent for a while.
That's right, but the Spirit Pagoda is too powerful. Other forces face it alone and unconsciously lower their heads.
Well, alone?
"You don't seem to be in the mood to chat anymore, so I'll leave first. Bring Mu Xi to the Mecha Association when you have time."
After saying this, Mr. Li patted Mu Chen's shoulder and turned to leave.
Mu Chen stood there, looking at Mr. Li's back, feeling mixed emotions.
He already understood what Mr. Li meant, but the union of the two associations, even if it was just the East China Sea branch, was not something he could decide alone, and a high-level meeting was needed to discuss it.
"Let's go, let's go home."
Mu Chen turned to Mu Xi and said, "You heard what I said just now. If you meet Huo Yuhao in the future, don't be so petty."
He saw the scene where Mu Xi ran to find Huo Yuhao. With his daughter's proud and competitive personality, the two of them probably didn't get along very well.
"Oh..."
Mu Xi nodded blankly, and then remembered what she had said to Huo Yuhao, and her cheeks instantly turned red.
What did she say?
Telling a core disciple of the Spiritual Transmission Tower who was born with full soul power and protected by Soul Douluo that she hoped he could match a ten thousand year soul?
Even the soul was put on the auction floor because of him...
This... It's embarrassing to think about it.
But he does look very ordinary, she is not wrong.
Mu Xi thought unconvinced, but lowered her head with a red face, turning into an ostrich.
...
Seeing that Mu Chen did not stop him immediately, Li Yucheng sighed with some regret and left directly. Among the four major secondary professions, the number of soul masters who choose the path of forging in major colleges is the least, and the number of forging talents is also the least. However, if many secondary professions want to reach the peak, they cannot do without the help of forgers, which further increases the status of high-level forgers.
And Mu Chen is an eight-star saint craftsman second only to the nine-star master craftsman. If the East China Sea Forging Association and the Mecha Master Association are further combined, it will be of great benefit to their association.
He is old, but his heart is not old.
Whether it is to cultivate outstanding successors or to reach cooperation with the Forging Association, he wants to do something for the association before retirement.
But now it seems that there is no hope for both at present. I will not have the confidence to show off to old friends at the headquarters in the future.
Li Yucheng smiled helplessly.
...
"Here."
Hua Yichen walked out of the museum and handed a small ball to Huo Yuhao.
"The soul is inside. You have read so many books recently, you should know how to use the soul ball."
The soul ball is a spherical soul guide that stores souls. Like the storage soul guide, there is a space inside for the soul to survive. The price is relatively expensive.
The manufacturing principle is similar to that of the storage soul guide. After all, souls are creatures between life and death, and the requirement that storage soul guides cannot store living things is invalid for them.
As for the function, one is to store souls, which is used most in the Soul Transfer Tower. Another function is to allow souls to accompany soul masters to grow up and cultivate feelings.
After all, soul contracts require the consent of souls, but the more powerful souls are, the more picky they are about their contractors. At this time, in addition to using strength to convince the souls, you have to consider playing the emotional card.
If a soul has watched a soul master grow up and get along well, even if the soul master is very weak, the desire to resist will not be too strong.
Huo Yuhao took over the half-red and half-white soul ball, and his expression was hard to describe.
In his opinion, this thing is similar to the Pokémon Ball in both appearance and function. He doesn't know who made it, and there is no record in history books.
That's right, Huo Yuhao wants to make it clear that this was not invented by him, and it is definitely not a soul guide device invented by him!
He had only mentioned the concept of Poké Balls thousands of years ago. Who would have thought that someone would actually make one specifically for this purpose...
Huo Yuhao took a breath and looked at Hua Yichen, who looked calm.
"What did they ask for?"
They had even prepared the Soul Balls. It was obvious that they were targeting him in the first place. However, since they were handing the Soul Balls over to them in the form of an auction, they should not ask for much.
"They just want to spend money to buy a ticket to the Soul Tower. It's no big deal. You don't have to worry about these things. Just focus on your cultivation."
Hua Yichen smiled indifferently and joked, "I'm counting on you to find a job to retire after you become successful in the future with your connections."
Huo Yuhao put away the Soul Ball. The recent interactions made him realize that Hua Yichen was not someone who liked to put on airs, so he smiled and replied directly.
"That's unfortunate. If I really become successful, I might have to keep everyone busy."
"You're indirectly saying that I'm idle, right?"
Hua Yichen was stunned, then smiled and shook his head, "Okay, we've got the whale glue, let's go."
Huo Yuhao was about to nod when he suddenly noticed an old man and paused, "Teacher Hua, it's not against the rules for members of the Spirit Pagoda to practice secondary professions and join related associations, right?"
Hua Yichen followed his line of sight and saw that it was Li Yucheng, and raised his eyebrows, "You want to join the Mecha Master Association and practice secondary professions?"
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Yes."
Hua Yichen fell into deep thought after hearing this, "Your soul skills are indeed very suitable for mecha design and manufacturing, but you just need to be careful and don't miss your practice."
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
Huo Yuhao rarely showed a confident smile.
He may not be talented in other areas, but he is very confident when it comes to soul guides.
The original book also has a soul ball, which is also used to store souls, but it seems to be a disposable item.
