"Hui, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Qing Ya asked with concern as she opened the door.
Ming Hui, already seated at the bedside, shook his head and then said with excitement, "Dad, Mom, I just sensed my martial soul and discovered that, in addition to the Lightwing Divine Bow, I have another martial soul. I can sense it in my mind; it should be a primary martial soul."
"Primary martial soul!" The couple exchanged a glance, both showing expressions of joy.
This meant they could have their son first cultivate the primary martial soul to build a solid foundation and then focus on the Lightwing Divine Bow.
This way, they wouldn't have to worry about their son's internal organs being too weak to withstand the cold energy from absorbing an ice-element soul ring.
Thinking of this, Ming Chen was so excited he nearly shed tears.
"Heaven bless the Ming family!"
The Ming family line had dwindled to just him in this generation. After years of effort, he had finally reached the level of a Title Douluo and suppressed the cold backlash. At over 70 years old, he had finally had a child. If the child were to die prematurely, the family bloodline would end, and he would go mad.
Heaven knows the pressure he had endured over the years.
Now, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"In the mind, could it be a spiritual attribute?" Qing Ya quickly ran to her son's side and sat down.
"Hui'er, try activating it?"
"It should be. I just tried it." Ming Hui said, then activated his martial soul. His mind immediately became clearer.
His vision also changed dramatically.
As a Title Douluo, Qing Ya and Ming Chen both sensed a wave of spiritual power emanating from their son's forehead.
It was faint, but with their strength and proximity, they couldn't have sensed it wrong.
"The activation emits a spiritual power fluctuation; it must be a spiritual attribute." Ming Chen's eyes flickered.
Spiritual attribute was an extremely rare martial soul attribute.
It should align well with the family's inherited eye technique.
"Dad, Mom," Ming Hui continued, "After activating this martial soul, the world I see has changed."
"To be precise, it's like a third eye opened in my forehead. Even with my eyes closed, I can see everything in front of me."
He quickly closed his eyes.
"However, even though I see the same things, they appear different."
"For example, when I look at you, Dad and Mom, your clothes appear very dark, but your skin has become brighter and shows a light blue hue."
"Your heads are the brightest and continuously emit fluctuations, like fish stirring ripples on the water's surface. I just looked outside the window and saw that the surrounding flowers, grass, and trees emit similar fluctuations, but the inanimate objects like chairs inside the house don't."
He opened his eyes again.
"I can still see, but the images overlap and aren't very clear."
"It should be spiritual power fluctuations." Qing Ya listened and turned to her husband, expressing her guess.
"Only living things emit spiritual power fluctuations; inanimate objects don't, so the colors appear dim."
"So, Hui'er is seeing the spiritual world, the manifestation of the real world in the spiritual domain."
"It's just that since Hui'er's martial soul has just awakened, he can only see the surface."
"Once his cultivation and spiritual power grow stronger, perhaps he can see deeper things."
"For example, souls." Her eyes flashed with brilliance.
"And being able to see means there's a chance to attack through soul skills."
Unspoken implication: immense potential!
"To achieve this, perhaps Hui'er's martial soul needs to evolve a second time." Ming Chen said meaningfully.
Qing Ya understood. There was only one place on the continent where one could evolve a primary martial soul a second time.
And it was in the northern part of the Tiandou Empire.
The Body Sect? It seems possible.
Ming Hui, having read the original work, was somewhat familiar with the Body Sect. They once led a group into the Star Dou Forest, hunting seven 100,000-year-old soul beasts and triggering a beast tide, causing considerable disaster to the surrounding civilians.
From the outcome, they should indeed be criticized, as they indirectly caused many deaths.
But from the cause, as soul masters, hunting soul beasts to obtain soul rings and bones isn't excessive killing.
Over the years, how many 100,000-year-old soul beasts have been hunted by soul masters on the continent?
In Shrek Academy alone, there are several, just that the hunting times and places are scattered, not triggering beast tides.
To put it bluntly, it's all for their own needs.
Moreover, as a guardian sect of the Tiandou Empire, the Body Sect also did its best in resisting foreign enemies.
