Hearing Su Cheng slander Tang Hao, A Yin was immediately displeased.
However, since she needed his help, she didn't immediately refute him, only slightly frowning.
From Su Cheng's words, it seemed he had met her lover and son before, and even knew about their past.
A Yin naturally didn't want to miss this opportunity. She
quickly said, "No, you don't need to bring my original body."
"What do you mean?" "
I can sense that your martial soul is very special, capable of accommodating my current soul. I can reside within your martial soul."
"Oh?" Su Cheng was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of the two elders of the Martial Soul Hall, Thousand-Jun Douluo and Demon-Slaying Douluo.
He had previously had a similar idea, to compensate for the defects of his martial soul by sealing some kind of strange beast, but since his martial soul transformed into the Longevity Sword, this idea had faded.
"I myself don't know how to do it, can you do it?" Su Cheng narrowed his eyes, looking at A Yin.
"I should be able to." A Yin nodded, cautiously glancing at the vertical lines on Su Cheng's forehead.
Unlike Su Cheng
, who was using his soul skill to create this unique communication environment, A Yin could observe his situation but didn't know how she felt.
However, as the object of observation, and a pure spirit, A Yin was more acutely aware of the peculiarities of this strange perspective.
Moreover, a faint sense of summoning emanated from that seemingly flawless longsword spirit.
Seeing Su Cheng's hesitation, A Yin quickly added, "This won't harm you. I can feel it; my presence can complement the attributes of your longsword spirit."
"You can feel that too?"
This time, Su Cheng was genuinely surprised.
His fourth soul ring hadn't followed the original order of choosing wood; instead, he had absorbed a ten-thousand-year soul ring from a fire-attribute soul beast.
Since the five elements cycle was nearing completion and he possessed the five elements domain, either fire or wood was acceptable for his fourth soul ring.
Su Cheng had always harbored some thoughts about the Blue Silver King.
However, unlike the hidden location of the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone, the Blue Silver King's location lacked any obvious landmarks, making it impossible for him to find it.
Moreover, without the Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone, even if he found the other party's location, the Five Elements Domain alone wouldn't be enough to deceive the Blue Silver King and obtain a Soul Ring. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry.
Actually, for Su Cheng, the characteristics and age of the Soul Ring itself weren't important; the key was that he wanted to understand the principle behind the natural Soul Ring condensation method.
If he could grasp the underlying principles, Su Cheng would never have to worry about adding Soul Rings again.
In fact, from then on, all Soul Rings could be condensed according to his own body's limits.
Compared to hunting Soul Beasts or even so-called divinely bestowed Soul Rings, Su Cheng instinctively felt that this natural condensation method was the best approach.
After thinking about it, Su Cheng didn't refuse Ah Yin's suggestion.
If the other party were the soul of a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast, he definitely wouldn't agree.
But given Ah Yin's current state, even if she resided within a Martial Soul, she couldn't possibly have any effect on him.
Furthermore, having her by his side would facilitate future observation and prevent any unexpected changes from occurring while he was away—it wasn't a bad thing.
Thinking of this, Su Cheng looked at the Blue Silver Emperor before him and said in a deep voice, "Then let's go. What do we need to do?"
Upon hearing this, A Yin's face lit up with joy, and she said, "Nothing is needed. Just bring your martial spirit close to me."
Besides wanting to go out and see if she could see her lover and son, she had other reasons for this.
She could sense that
if she could get Su Cheng's permission to nurture her soul within the Longevity Sword, it would be greatly beneficial to her as well.
Su Cheng handed over the Longevity Sword, holding it in front of A Yin.
Seeing this, A Yin also extended her slender, white hand and gently grasped the hilt of the Longevity Sword.
However, the next moment, a sudden change occurred.
The instant her soul touched the Longevity Sword,
the golden mark between Su Cheng's brows suddenly shone brightly.
He instantly felt his spiritual power pour out like a flood, surging into the external soul bone between his brows.
At the same time, above his sea of consciousness, the immeasurably high spot of light suddenly flickered slightly.
In an instant, Ah Yin felt a tremendous chill, like a monstrous wave, surge from the depths of her heart.
This chill then swept over her like a tsunami, giving her the illusion that impending doom.
Although she was currently only in a phantom soul state, she was enveloped by a terrifying aura, as if she were naked and alone in a jungle, surrounded by malice, with nowhere to hide.
In that instant, instinct screamed at her to flee.
And that's what she did.
Without hesitation, without any thought of resisting this instinct, she tried to release her grip.
However, it was too late.
From the moment her soul touched Su Cheng's martial soul, escape was inevitable.
If she were still the 100,000-year-old soul beast of the past, Su Cheng's mental power would naturally be unable to restrain her.
But the current Ah Yin clearly lacked that power and was powerless to resist.
The next moment, Su Cheng and Ah Yin simultaneously lost consciousness.
However, Su Cheng's unconsciousness was due to the exhaustion of his mental power.
Ah Yin, however, was different. At this moment, she emanated a faint five-colored light from within, her spirit seemingly being gradually transformed before merging into the Longevity Sword Martial Soul.
After an unknown amount of time,
Ah Yin's spirit floated out of Su Cheng's body.
She stared blankly at the unconscious Su Cheng, yet felt no urge to resist or harm him.
At this moment, she felt completely controlled by him.
It was as if she had become his Martial Soul.
No, even less than a Martial Soul; she was merely a spirit imprisoned within it.
A thousand thoughts raced through her mind, and Ah Yin's expression constantly shifted.
A blush first appeared on her face, then quickly turned pale, and a sense of despair even surfaced in her heart.
At this moment, even her life and death were not in her own hands.
Not long after, Su Cheng also slowly woke up.
He immediately felt a sharp pain in his head.
The feeling of completely depleted mental energy was extremely uncomfortable; his body felt completely hollowed out, and he could barely even think.
He took out several bottles of potions from his soul tool and swallowed them all, only then feeling slightly better.
There was no other way; even if only a tiny bit of mental energy remained, with his foundation, he could quickly recover without the need for medicine.
But if it was completely depleted, the process would be much slower.
"What did you do to me?"
At this moment, Ah Yin, standing opposite him, finally spoke.
However, her eyes were unusually empty, and her tone was blank, tinged with resentment and hatred.
"If I said I didn't do anything, would you believe me?" Su Cheng glanced at her and said indifferently.
"Didn't do anything?!" Even with Ah Yin's temperament, she could no longer suppress her anger. "Can't you feel it yourself?!"
"I can feel it, but I really don't know what happened." Su Cheng frowned. "Besides, wasn't this your suggestion? Why blame me?"
"..." Ah Yin stared blankly at Su Cheng.
Then a bitter look appeared in her eyes. "Yes, it was my idea..."
Su Cheng was also a little confused, but he had indeed realized that he had completely controlled her.
Even her existence and destruction were only a matter of his mind.
After thinking about it, Su Cheng didn't dwell on it too much.
The current unexpected event was clearly not bad for him.
As a bizarre and extraordinary world, there were far too many mysterious things that could happen here, and it was inevitable that some things would slip out of his control.
Not to mention the Eye of True Sight, which was inherently linked to a higher level of existence like a simulator.
He wasn't surprised by some extraordinary abilities, especially since he was clearly the one benefiting now.
Su Cheng could already feel that his Longevity Sword was nearing completion.
Although the buffs provided by Ah Yin's spirit body were much weaker than those from a soul ring, they did indeed have a positive effect on the five elements cycle within the Longevity Sword, which was beneficial to his cultivation.
Moreover, having such a spirit body within his martial soul, if used properly, would undoubtedly help him better control the Longevity Sword and unleash more complex soul skills.
Thinking of this, Su Cheng changed his previous indifferent attitude and began to persuade the dazed Ah Yin in front of him.
"Ahem, this wasn't my intention. Don't worry, although I can influence your actions to some extent, I certainly won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. As compensation, I can answer anything you want to know."
Now that he had completely controlled the other party, there was no need for any fair exchange of questions.
The other party couldn't lie to him.
Hearing Su Cheng's words, A Yin looked up and stared blankly at him.
She didn't speak for a long time, her face full of confusion.
Su Cheng didn't urge her, but stood aside patiently waiting.
He took this opportunity to silently circulate his cultivation technique, speeding up the recovery of his depleted spiritual energy.
After a long silence, A Yin finally spoke again.
"Now you can tell me what's going on with that child, right?"
"Your child's name is Tang San, he's indeed not dead, and he lives with Tang Hao."
A Yin had just breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Su Cheng say again, "But his soul has been replaced by someone else."
"What do you mean?" A Yin's beautiful eyes widened slightly, not understanding the meaning of his words for a moment.
"Simply put, although Tang San is theoretically your son, and he even inherited your martial soul, his soul has been possessed by someone else. It's an adult's soul in that body."
After thinking for a moment, Su Cheng continued to explain, "To be precise, I think from an ethical standpoint, he shouldn't be considered your son. After all, in our Douluo Continent, the concept of a soul does exist. Like you are now."
These words sent chills down A Yin's spine.
A wave of nausea washed over her, followed by a sense of absurdity.
"I'm already like this, and you're still lying to me?!"
A Yin's voice trembled slightly.
In her experience, she had never heard of such a bizarre thing.
And she didn't want to believe it could happen.
"Yeah, you're already like this, why would I lie to you?" Su Cheng raised an eyebrow and countered.
"Have you ever seen a six or seven-year-old child invent hidden weapons and use them to injure or even kill a Soul Master two or three levels higher in cultivation?
Have you ever seen a child born with cultivation techniques and innate Soul Skills?"
"Do you think a normal family's child, with a deadbeat father who drinks all day and doesn't care about his life, could still live to six and awaken innate full soul power?"
Su Cheng said calmly. "If you still don't believe it, you'll understand when you see him. Don't worry, it won't be long, probably only two years, then it'll be clear."
A Yin stared at him blankly, slowly digesting the information contained in his words.
Suddenly, she frowned slightly and asked, "What do you mean by drinking all day and not caring about his life?"
"What else could it mean? Tang Hao seems to want your 'son' to be reincarnated as soon as possible. Anyway, as far as I know, Tang San basically survived on his own when he was young."
At this point, Su Cheng slowed down his speech, a thoughtful expression on his face.
"Speaking of which, I originally thought Tang Hao was too stupid to notice Tang San's abnormality, but looking at it this way, maybe he had already noticed it, but just hadn't figured out how to deal with it."
A Yin's heart trembled slightly upon hearing this.
If Tang Hao truly knew the truth but deliberately let it go, then she was deeply disappointed; she didn't want to believe her lover would have such a mindset.
But if it wasn't because of this, then it was truly as Su Cheng said—his reaction was far too slow, which obviously damaged Tang Hao's image in her eyes.
Besides, if he really hadn't noticed anything amiss, he shouldn't have ignored the child's life or death.
After a long while, A Yin stared intently at Su Cheng and said coldly, "I don't believe what you're saying."
"Believe it or not, it's up to you," Su Cheng scoffed. "Anyway, we'll know for sure in two years. What good would it do me to lie to you? I'm only telling you these things because I pity you. If you don't believe me, then I won't say anything." "
..."
Seeing A Yin's silence, Su Cheng reached out and stroked his chin, muttering to himself.
"Actually, I'm more inclined to believe that Tang Hao simply didn't notice anything strange about it, because his behavior has always been quite foolish. After all, daring to run around the world with a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast when he's only a Soul Douluo, I guess only the Tang family could do that."
"Don't you dare say that about him!" Ah Yin glared at Su Cheng.
"The successor of Haotian Douluo! What a prestigious title, surely he knows how many people in the world are watching him?" Su Cheng looked at Ah Yin with a half-smile.
"Well, you could say he's not foolish, but that would be really strange. What do you think he was thinking, parading you around like that?
"Could it be that he's waiting for you to sacrifice yourself?"
Ah Yin's face turned pale instantly, and she quickly shook her head in denial, "No, Hao wouldn't do that."
"Hmm, actually, I agree with you." Su Cheng nodded slightly in agreement.
"If he really wanted your soul ring, there were many better opportunities. Of course, it's also possible that he couldn't make a move because he wasn't level 90 at the time, but the risk of attracting the Spirit Hall's people was just too great."
"If it were me, I'd rather wait a few more years. After all, I have a 100,000-year spirit ring that's readily available, so why bother competing for the title of the youngest Title Douluo?
Besides, judging from his reaction after your sacrifice, it didn't seem like he was acting."
Su Cheng gently stroked his cheek with his fingers, continuing to impart his analytical thinking to Ah Yin.
"But speaking of which, after your sacrifice, his escapist behavior seemed quite cowardly, completely different from his previous actions. Is it because he was young and successful, and now reality has finally taught him a lesson?"
Ah Yin stared blankly at Su Cheng,
murmuring, "How do you know so much about their situation?"
This young man before her, in terms of both cultivation level and spirit ring configuration, far exceeded her preconceived notions of spirit masters.
His words just now left her speechless, unable to refute him.
Facing Ah Yin's questioning, Su Cheng chuckled, "Because I've met your son before. We went to the same junior spirit master academy.
"His surname is Tang, and he clearly has a trashy Blue Silver Grass spirit, yet he was able to awaken to innate full spirit power. Anyone with a normal brain would suspect something's wrong, right?"
"After that, I did some investigation and dug up all your old stories. Unfortunately, I have a good relationship with a high-ranking member of the Spirit Hall and was able to obtain some internal information."
Ah Yin looked surprised and exclaimed, "You're from the Spirit Hall?"
"Not really, just have a good relationship with someone." Su Cheng waved his hand lightly. "Forget it, these things aren't your concern. Instead of being curious about my situation, you should think about what's going on with your son. Hmm, you can also reflect on why you fell for someone like Tang Hao."
"Tang Hao is much more outstanding than you think!" Ah Yin's face flushed red as she said urgently, "He's talented, ambitious, and fearless. He's always the first to step forward in the face of danger and never puts me in any risk!"
"Your naivety makes me want to laugh." Su Cheng's face showed a hint of mockery.
"I don't know how long a spirit beast with 100,000 years of cultivation has actually lived, but it seems you've only increased your cultivation without growing your brain, or perhaps you've truly never seen anything like this."
Su Cheng's voice turned cold.
"His bravery stemmed solely from strength. The brave, in their anger, draw their blades against the stronger. The cowardly, in their anger, draw their blades against the weaker. Strength is not a symbol of courage.
"To be honest, I think he's inferior to you in this respect.
"Do you know what happened after your death?
"Because of your sacrifice, the Pope of the Spirit Hall and Tang Hao were both severely injured. The Clear Sky Sect was blamed and forced to close its gates, its disciples not daring to step outside for many years.
"And at that time, Tang Hao, like a rat, hid in a small mountain village, drinking all day long, lacking both the courage and the will to avenge you.
"Only after learning that his 'son' possessed twin spirits did he regain his spirit."
Su Cheng stared intently into Ah Yin's eyes.
The strange light in them made her hesitant to look directly at him.
"Cowards will always seek protection.
"The so-called 'courage' Tang Hao displayed before was merely because he ignorantly overestimated his own strength.
"When he realized his own strength was insufficient, he could no longer clench his fist!"
