Chapter 71: The Amazing Golden Ancient Tree
"Brother Qinghan, as long as my mother's revenge is achieved, the method doesn't matter, but you don't have to take such a big risk for this."
Huo Yutong was very grateful to Lin Qinghan for thinking so much for her. As for revenge, her ultimate goal was to kill Dai Huabin and his mother, and then make the White Tiger Duke, Dai Hao, kneel in front of her mother's grave to repent.
Of course, she didn't care whether she killed the White Tiger Duke's wife. She already regarded Lin Qinghan as the closest person, but there were many high-level soul masters in the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. Although there were no Titled Douluo, there were still a few Soul Douluo.
Moreover, Huo Yutong already knew that Lin Qinghan was only in his 50s. Although he usually acted as if he could do everything, she obviously didn't think that Lin Qinghan had the strength comparable to a Titled Douluo.
"I'm glad you don't mind. I'll give you a surprise another day. They can only live a few more days."
A fierce light flashed in Lin Qinghan's eyes. Since he was hunted by an evil soul master and Soul Saint a few years ago, he had not encountered any real enemies. He had become very arrogant now. The people of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion had angered him, and he would not show mercy.
In a few days, after he condensed his soul core, he would release a few bioelectric deprivations upon the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
Lin Qinghan scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense again. After confirming there were no assassins, he went to rest.
The gate had been destroyed, but it was still early. Huo Yutong quickly found a repairman who fixed it in just three quarters of an hour.
The next day, Lin Qinghan and Huo Yutong went to the Golden Ancient Tree under the leadership of Zhang Lexuan.
This was the first time Lin Qinghan saw the Golden Ancient Tree up close. As its name suggested, the tree truly seemed to be made of gold, exuding a powerful breath of life and light. Next to the Golden Ancient Tree, Lin Qinghan felt his soul power become much more active.
No wonder the Golden Ancient Tree is Shrek's biggest trump card. Just being near it is like training in a top-level martial arts mimicry ground!
Lin Qinghan felt the immense power contained in the Golden Ancient Tree and was secretly a little shocked. It was worthy of being the life core of the Douluo Continent. No wonder the protagonists of the original novel almost entered a state of deep meditation when they first trained near it.
"Children, come in." A gentle voice came, followed by a golden beam of light in the air, as if guiding them.
"This beam will disappear in a while. In order to prevent getting lost, you should follow me."
Zhang Lexuan smiled gently at Lin Qinghan and Huo Yutong behind her, though she was a little envious of Huo Yutong's good fortune. She hadn't experienced the Golden Ancient Tree at her age. Now, because she was a member of the Sea God Pavilion, she had the chance to enter the deep training room once every few months.
From what Zhang Lexuan understood, although Huo Yutong had a tragic background, she had received Lin Qinghan's help as soon as she entered Shrek Academy. Zhang Lexuan didn't know what Lin Qinghan saw in her, but she couldn't help but be impressed. Huo Yutong was now able to fuse her martial soul with Lin Qinghan, and Zhang Lexuan was envious of that.
She knew Lin Qinghan's cultivation speed all too well. When she first met him, she noticed that his soul power absorption speed was no slower than hers. Now, he had completely surpassed her. Lin Qinghan was only level 57, while she was level 87. Logically speaking, a twenty-level difference should have made him no match for her, but Lin Qinghan had managed to achieve this against all odds.
Huo Yutong, who could fuse with Lin Qinghan's martial soul, was now poised to soar in her cultivation speed under his guidance.
The three of them walked to a staircase leading downwards, guided by the golden beam of light. The beam disappeared after they had entered the underground. Although Zhang Lexuan was a bit puzzled, she led the way without hesitation.
After walking through several short corridors and turning a few times, they soon arrived at their destination.
"This is the training room with the highest concentration of heaven and earth energy. It's most suitable for condensing soul cores. Qinghan, I wish you success."
Zhang Lexuan gave Lin Qinghan a blessing before turning and leaving. She believed he would succeed, but she also had to focus on improving herself. Once Lin Qinghan condensed his soul core, his combat power would likely surpass hers.
After watching Zhang Lexuan leave, Lin Qinghan opened the door and entered, followed closely by Huo Yutong.
As soon as he stepped inside, Lin Qinghan was once again stunned. The Heaven and Earth Yuanli in this room was so dense it almost formed a mist. Soul masters below level 50 practicing here might not have enough time to refine all the energy, as it would flood their bodies too quickly.
However, Lin Qinghan didn't worry about Huo Yutong. Since they were fused in their martial souls, she wouldn't be affected.
"Yutong, just watch and practice beside me. Don't be surprised by anything that happens."
Lin Qinghan reached out and took Huo Yutong's hand. The two entered the martial soul fusion state. As he spoke, Lin Qinghan also handed Huo Yutong several invincible shields.
Although he had already formed a tangible and substantial mental projection through their martial soul fusion, he was confident he would succeed in this attempt. But if something unexpected happened, the consequences might be too much for someone like Huo Yutong, who was still under level 20.
Lin Qinghan sat down cross-legged, and Huo Yutong, following his instructions, sat behind him to maintain the martial soul fusion state.
Lin Qinghan's consciousness sank into his sea of spirits, beginning to condense his soul core. It wasn't difficult for him now, and with Bingdi and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's help, he knew he would succeed.
"Bingdi, where is Tianmeng? She's not asleep again, is she?"
As soon as Lin Qinghan entered his sea of spirits, he saw Bingdi in human form, reading a book. When Bingdi saw him, her eyes lit up.
"You finally came to the sea of spirits! The last time you merged your martial soul with someone, you didn't even tell us. You made quite a stir in the sea of spirits."
Bingdi put the book away and teased Lin Qinghan with a slight complaint. "But Tianmeng just likes to sleep. She's cultivated for millions of years. Especially in your spiritual sea, with that big green sun made of gold, you rarely come to visit. If it weren't for these books you gave me, I'd probably be asleep too."
Bingdi floated toward Lin Qinghan and extended her hand. These books had been projected into the spiritual sea after Lin Qinghan scanned them with his spiritual stance. It was a great way for Bingdi to pass the time.
"Sorry, I did ignore you a bit. By the way, what do you want?"
Lin Qinghan scratched his head awkwardly, but he was confused by Bingdi's gesture of stretching out her hand.
"Didn't you promise me the sequel to that book? I've almost finished reading the ones you gave me before."
Bingdi's tone was playful, but she wasn't angry. She knew that Lin Qinghan was usually busy with important tasks.
"Okay, Ice Emperor, I have something important to do now. I need to condense my soul core. I'm still not skilled enough in mastering the ultimate ice soul power, so I need your help."
