Chapter 182 Awakening the Martial Soul (1)
The squad leader's words completely baffled Wu Heyi.
"What do you mean? There are still people who don't know what a Martial Soul is?"
Wu Heyi's eyes widened, and he roared in disbelief.
At that moment, he felt as if a crack had appeared in his usually impenetrable defenses.
Over the years, Wu Heyi has been born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and his cultivation path has been smooth sailing.
He never imagined that there were so many extremely poor or remote villages on the vast land of Douluo Continent.
In these places, there are simply no professional Soul Masters willing to go to the villagers' homes to help them awaken their Martial Souls.
This is why the Douluo Continent has formed a tripartite balance of power between two major empires and the Spirit Hall.
Despite their formidable strength, Soul Masters are still a tiny fraction of the population compared to ordinary people who lack Soul Power.
There are far too many people who go through life without knowing anything about martial spirits and spirit power, and can only live ordinary, mediocre lives.
"Since you don't even know about martial spirits, then what exactly was that mysterious power that your leader used when he fought me?"
Wu Heyi frowned, his eyes fixed on the squad leader in front of him, and asked urgently.
However, at this moment, faced with the difficult question posed by Wu Heyi, the squad leader was either completely clueless and had no way to answer it;
Or they know the answer in their hearts but dare not speak it easily due to various concerns.
Upon seeing this, Wu Heyi couldn't help but feel a deep sense of helplessness and speechlessness.
He had been hoping to get some useful information from the squad leader, but this was the outcome he hadn't expected.
Fortunately, after a period of intense emotional turmoil, he gradually regained his composure.
He simply waved his hand lightly and said in a calm tone:
"Fine, fine. Since you don't understand, then let me personally show you what a true Martial Soul is!"
Wu Heyi flashed and arrived at an open space.
He gently waved his sleeve, and a flash of light appeared, revealing six crystals of identical size and crystal clarity in his hand.
These crystals emit a faint yet mysterious light, drawing the eye.
Wu Heyi carefully placed the six crystals on the ground, arranging them in an extremely exquisite manner.
In the blink of an eye, a huge six-pointed star-shaped magic circle made of crystal appeared on the ground!
The magic circle has smooth lines and shimmering light, as if it contains endless mysteries and energy.
After completing the formation, Wu Heyi turned to the squad leader beside him and gestured for a team member to enter the formation.
The squad leader nodded knowingly and then selected a burly team member. The team member looked at the magic circle in front of him nervously, but under the encouraging gaze of the squad leader, he mustered up his courage and stepped inside.
The moment the team member stepped into the magic circle, Wu Heyi immediately formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
Immediately afterwards, a powerful surge of soul energy erupted from his body, pouring into the magic array like a raging torrent.
At the same time, a majestic and imposing phantom of a martial spirit appeared behind him, emanating a chilling aura.
With the help of the magic array and the enhancement of his own martial spirit, Wu Heyi unleashed a unique pulling technique.
This force was like a pair of invisible hands, penetrating straight through the team member's body and penetrating deep into his body to search for the martial spirit hidden within.
"Come on, extend your right hand. Don't resist, just let it flow naturally, and release the power hidden within your body!"
Wu Heyi said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, the man standing in the center of the magic circle felt a little fear, but when he met the squad leader's unwavering gaze, his unease lessened somewhat.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves, and then slowly raised his right hand.
At that moment, the man clearly felt something inside his body begin to stir.
This feeling was not unfamiliar to him; in fact, he had experienced similar situations many times before.
However, whenever such unusual behavior occurred in the past, he always mistakenly thought it was due to his hunger, so he did not pay much attention to it.
But now, standing within this mysterious magic array and facing such a strange and powerful force, he realized that things were probably far more complicated than they seemed.
At this moment, the frequency of this mysterious object's swaying was increasing at an astonishing speed, and each swing felt like a heavy hammer striking his heart.
His heart pounded faster and faster, and a wave of panic surged through him.
However, remembering Wu Heyi's stern warning—that he was absolutely not allowed to feel any aversion to this thing—he gritted his teeth and hardened his heart, deciding to leave it to fate.
Even if death is inevitable in the end, at least it will be a glorious one!
So he closed his eyes tightly, stopped thinking about anything, and completely surrendered his body and mind to fate.
In that instant, a strange feeling welled up in his heart, as if an invisible force was breaking free from its restraints and rapidly leaving his body.
Immediately afterwards, he clearly felt that force rushing out of his right arm.
Strangely, if this thing really escaped, it didn't go far away, but stopped abruptly not far from him, hovering there quietly.
At the same time, he noticed that the previously congested and viscous soul power in his body seemed to have suddenly found an outlet, and began to travel through his meridians at lightning speed.
This feeling is so wonderful that it's hard to describe in words.
As his soul power surged and flowed, he could clearly feel subtle changes taking place in his physical body.
The soul power that once required him to exhaust all his strength to barely squeeze out a trace of was now so agile and free, like an extension of his arm, obeying his commands at will.
Wu Heyi knew very well that there was no need to test the man's innate soul power at this moment.
After all, the man looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, well past the prime age for cultivation.
Furthermore, because they have been using the special method of consuming spirit rings to enhance their strength for a long time, it is actually very difficult to accurately measure the innate spirit power data in their bodies.
However, Wu Heyi is an extremely meticulous person who respects rules and procedures.
He calmly reached into his storage space again and carefully took out a crystal stone that was the size of a human head.
This crystal was specially purchased by him in Wuhun City. It is a top-quality item, far superior to the ordinary crystals used for general awakening of martial souls and testing of soul power!
Generally speaking, the highest level of innate soul power that common universal testing crystals can detect is only level ten.
But the precious crystal in Wu Heyi's hand was completely different; its detection limit was as high as level 15!
Although in this vast world, those who can surpass the high threshold of innate full soul power level ten are extremely rare, Wu Heyi firmly believes that he will eventually encounter such a gifted person.
That's why he didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy this rare and high-grade crystal.
Now is the perfect time to take it out and give this man in front of me a precise test.
