Chapter 301: Tang San's Efforts and Liu Erlong's Worries
On the other side, in the Heaven Dou Imperial City.
After exiting the livestream, Lin Yu received a reward for ranking first in the Q&A event, which gave him three opportunities to evolve his martial soul.
Initially, Lin Yu intended to use these three opportunities for himself.
After all, his Chaos Qinglian Martial Soul was already incredibly powerful, and if it evolved once more, it would be invincible!
However, the final result left Lin Yu a bit speechless.
The reason being, the martial soul evolution opportunities he received could not be used on his Chaos Qinglian or Twin-Pupils Martial Souls.
These two martial souls were of such high quality that they exceeded the limit of the system's martial soul evolution, meaning they couldn't be further evolved.
Fortunately, however, the martial soul evolution opportunity could still be used for his Golden Dragon Martial Soul.
But after some thought, Lin Yu chose not to immediately use the martial soul evolution opportunity on the Golden Dragon Martial Soul.
This was because the connection between Lin Yu's main body and his three avatars was somewhat akin to quantum entanglement. If he evolved the Golden Dragon Martial Soul in his main body, the Golden Dragon Martial Soul in his Shangqing Avatar in the Slaughter City would evolve at the same time.
But the sudden evolution of a martial soul would be difficult to explain.
Furthermore, if the Golden Dragon Martial Soul evolved, it could very likely turn into a Dragon God Martial Soul, and the Shangqing Avatar still had to challenge the Hell Road. If it attracted the attention of the Asura God, things could get troublesome.
Thus, these three martial soul evolution opportunities were temporarily set aside.
Eventually, Lin Yu made up his mind.
In the days that followed, Lin Yu spent his time cultivating alchemists, researching new medicinal formulas, and using the rest of his time to refine pills.
He aimed to refine enough pills to hold a pill conference before the next livestream.
...
Meanwhile, in the Slaughter City.
After receiving the ten-thousand-year-old Heaven Gift Soul Ring from Bi Luo Rang.
In the following days, Tang San continued to work hard on his cultivation, aiming to reach level forty as soon as possible and absorb the ten-thousand-year-old Heaven Gift Soul Ring to break through to the Soul Sect level.
While working hard on his cultivation, Tang San also continued to be accompanied by Liu Erlong as they searched for fallen soul masters to challenge in the outer districts of the Slaughter City.
On one hand, he was honing his random cloak hammer technique and Tang Sect's unique skills, and on the other hand, he was practicing his Great Xumi Hammer, hoping to soon comprehend its ultimate mystery, the Explosion Ring!
But while Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were happy.
Liu Erlong, on the other hand, was deeply troubled during this time.
Liu Erlong realized that, compared to before entering the Slaughter City, she could no longer feel affection for Yu Xiaogang, whom she had always liked.
Instead, when she saw the behaviors of Yu Xiaogang that displeased her, she found it hard to forget and kept brooding over it.
In contrast, Liu Erlong discovered that she was gradually developing feelings for her companion, Long Aotian, who had entered the city with her.
This made Liu Erlong feel a sense of fear. Had she already fallen for someone else and no longer loved Xiaogang?
But Aotian was only a teenager!
There was such a huge gap between them, how could she possibly like such a younger brother? She had never been a woman who only cared about looks!
This thought made Liu Erlong panic.
And when she realized that Yu Xiaogang, whom she had once liked, didn't even notice her abnormality, still focusing all his attention on his disciple, Tang San, it only made Liu Erlong feel even more upset.
"I risked my life to come to the Slaughter City to find you, only to act as a nanny for you two master and disciple?"
In the midst of her worries, Liu Erlong finally decided to go to the Hell Slaughter Field to fight a good battle and release the pent-up frustrations in her heart.
Because of her emotional discomfort, this time Liu Erlong chose not to be accompanied by Lin Yu and instead went alone to the Hell Slaughter Field in the inner city of the Slaughter City.
However, as she watched Liu Erlong's figure disappear in the distance, Lin Yu couldn't help but feel a slight shift in his gaze.
"I'll take a walk."
Since Liu Erlong had left, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang naturally didn't bother to ask Lin Yu to accompany them, simply saying a sentence and walking off with their arms crossed.
Originally, Liu Erlong's departure had made it difficult for Tang San to continue his cultivation. Tang San and Yu Xiaogang had even considered asking Lin Yu to join them, but they hadn't expected Lin Yu to so bluntly ignore them and leave. This made Tang San and Yu Xiaogang feel a bit upset, though they were helpless.
After all, they weren't very familiar with Lin Yu.
The only reason Lin Yu had been with them was because of Liu Erlong, and he had always spoken only to Liu Erlong, barely saying anything to them.
They had no reason to ask Lin Yu for anything.
...
On the other side, after leaving Lin Yu, Tang San, and Yu Xiaogang.
Liu Erlong traveled from the outer district of the Slaughter City to the Hell Slaughter Field in the inner city, where she signed up for a duel.
During the battle, Liu Erlong threw all her worries aside.
She immersed herself in the fight, unleashing immense power and a violent offensive, slaughtering all nine fallen soul masters in the same round with an overwhelming stance.
After a thrilling battle, Liu Erlong felt her pent-up frustrations dissipating considerably.
After the fight ended, Liu Erlong walked out of the arena, preparing to leave the Hell Slaughter Field and return to the outer district.
However, because of her performance in the recent battle, many fallen soul masters became wary of her.
Just like in the original story, where Tang San was ambushed by fallen soul masters, Liu Erlong, after leaving the arena, was also targeted by a group of Soul Emperors and Soul Saints among the fallen soul masters.
These fallen soul masters intended to cooperate to eliminate Liu Erlong, seeing her as a threat!
As Liu Erlong exited the Hell Slaughter Field, a group of fallen soul masters followed her.
After trailing Liu Erlong for a while, the group suddenly accelerated. Along the way, each one summoned their martial souls and entered their martial soul possession states. They erupted with intense killing intent and charged at Liu Erlong.
In an instant, Liu Erlong, walking ahead, suddenly felt a powerful killing intent from behind.
A sense of crisis surged in her heart, and she immediately sped up, dodging an attack from a Soul Saint specialized in agility.
But at this moment, the group of fallen soul masters quickly surrounded her, smiling coldly as they trapped Liu Erlong.
Looking at the fallen soul masters surrounding her, Liu Erlong realized that there were over ten of them. Based on the soul rings surrounding them, the lowest rank among them was Soul Emperor, and there were even three or four Soul Saints!
Liu Erlong's face immediately darkened as her heart sank.
This was bad, she was in danger!
