Chapter 8, Soul Guide Device, Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Bright Moonlight

The journey of four hundred li is neither particularly long nor short, but it was not until noon the following day that they finally arrived at their destination, the Soul Hunting Forest

Looking up at the sky, the master said: "It seems we will have to spend the night in the Soul Hunter Forest. Let us first find a suitable camping spot"

At this point, the master looked at the shouting soul masters, a hint of disdain evident in his eyes

Although the color of the soul rings produced by a one-hundred-year soul beast and a nine-hundred-year soul beast is the same, the enhancement of additional attributes differs significantly. Pursuing the limits of soul rings under the premise of maximum safety is a mandatory course for every excellent soul master

However, the fact that such individuals can easily obtain soul rings does not mean they will become stronger than ordinary soul masters. No one can be certain whether the attributes of the soul beasts they encounter are the most suitable for them. While the level of the soul beast is undoubtedly important, the compatibility of attributes is equally crucial. No matter how excellent a soul ring may be, if it is incompatible with one's own martial soul, it cannot yield beneficial effects and may even have adverse impacts. Most importantly, each soul master has limitations on absorbing soul rings at different stages.

The master's eyes revealed a glimmer of approval, "To think of this shows that you have considered it carefully, but in reality, it is not that simple. Or rather, the additional requirements of the soul ring are extremely stringent"

Tang San shook his head

This is not all; outside the fence, a company of one hundred soldiers is maneuvering there. These soldiers are all clad in finely crafted iron armor, wielding long spears, and their military appearance is disciplined. The hundred steel warriors standing together evoke a sense of grimness.

The overweight Luo Sanpao walked ahead, shaking his head and swaying his body. Although he was somewhat plump, his movements were still quite agile. He walked while sniffing at something.

The master pointed to the prices marked in those shops, saying, "Because once you arrive here, the prices are at least doubled. You might be wondering why it is so lively outside a forest. The answer is quite simple. Wherever there are soul beasts, there are profits. This is especially true for forests where soul beasts are specifically raised by the state. Soul masters are a wealthy group, and there are many who wish to profit from them."

Two halos rose beneath the master, moving back and forth around him, both appearing in yellow, clearly indicating they were century-old soul rings

With a soft puff, a faint purple soul power emanated from the master's palms. Tang San felt a wave of soul power radiating from the master, and before him, a new creature had appeared.

Teacher, are we not supposed to leave the city?

The master paused slightly, his rigid face revealing no expression. He nodded and said, "It's a very nice name, though a bit lengthy."

There is a bump on the top of the head, round in shape, and I do not know what it is. As soon as it appeared, it ran towards the master, rubbing its large head against the master's leg.

First of all, it is necessary for the soul beast to be killed by oneself in order to obtain the soul ring of that soul beast. The soul ring will only exist for a very short period of time; if it is not attached to oneself within one hour, it will lose its effect.

I do not know why, but when the master spoke of the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, a hint of indescribable melancholy appeared in his eyes

The belt is entirely black, adorned with dark stripes that are difficult to discern without close inspection. Embedded evenly throughout the belt are twenty-four pieces of milky white jade, each the size of an adult's thumbnail and round in shape. The luster is warm and gentle, clearly indicating that these are rare and exquisite jades.

However, the Soul Hunting Forest before us, at least outside the forest, feels like a vast marketplace

"Teacher, the longer the cultivation time of a soul beast, the stronger its power, and the effects of the soul rings it produces are also better. In what specific aspects does this strength manifest?" Tang San asked.

A hint of bitterness appeared on the master's face, "Because my martial soul is a mutated martial soul. Do you remember when I told you about martial soul mutations? The Three Cannons are one such example. However, its mutation is clearly heading in a negative direction. When it first awakened, my soul power was only at half a level. Otherwise, how could it be like this now? No matter how hard I try, I will never be able to break through level thirty in this lifetime, and I can only study martial souls theoretically."

The fur is entirely a light purple color, with two small ears drooping down. A pair of deep blue large eyes blink gently, exuding a very tender gaze. The plump body wiggled slightly, causing the chubby rear to sway from side to side. It is hard to imagine how slow its movements are with its four short, stout legs.

Tang San asked, "Teacher, is the Soul Hunting Forest considered to belong to the Spirit Hall or the state?"

Thank you, teacher. Tang San was also polite, extending his hand to receive it. The saying goes that one should not refuse a gift from an elder. He had seen this before when he was at the Tang Sect; the inner sect elders would always present a gift upon accepting a disciple. The master giving him this belt should carry the same meaning

Master Dao: "Distinguishing the strength of soul beasts is not difficult. Look at that solitary bamboo ahead. It is also a type of soul beast, specifically a plant-type soul beast. It can be useful to you; solitary bamboo is inherently resilient. Although its offensive capability is not strong, its defense is quite good. This is a ten-year-old solitary bamboo, as its height does not exceed ten meters. Only those over ten meters are considered to be a hundred years old. Therefore, generally speaking, the identification of soul beasts mainly depends on their size and the color of the soul power they use when launching an attack. This is a ten-year-old solitary bamboo, as its height does not exceed ten meters. Only those over ten meters are considered to be a hundred years old. Therefore, generally speaking, the identification of soul beasts mainly depends on their size and the color of the soul power they use when launching an attack. The color of the soul power corresponds to their strength; that is to say, the soul power used by a ten-year soul beast is white, while that of a hundred-year soul beast is yellow, and so on. Of course, when facing an unknown soul beast, it is best not to look at its soul power. If it is something you cannot withstand, then you will face catastrophic danger"

Tang San's memory is quite good, and coupled with the novelty of encountering soul beasts for the first time, this sense of curiosity deepens his recollection. Any occasional mistakes in his responses are corrected one by one by the Master

This was Tang San's first time riding in a horse-drawn carriage. Although it was somewhat bumpy, the novelty of the experience filled him with interest, and he occasionally pulled back the curtain to look outside. Observing the bustling crowd and the various shops, he couldn't help but feel a sense of longing for the outside world. In this life, he was destined not to live as simply as he had in his previous life. He wondered what it would be like to enter society in the future. In this life, he was destined not to live as simply as he had in his previous life. He wondered what it would be like to enter society in the future

An animal that somewhat resembles a cat appeared in the direction of its gaze, lying on a tree, watching the master and Tang San with vigilance

Without the master having to say it, Tang San also understood the importance of practicing the extraction of items from the "Night of the Full Moon at the Twenty-Four Bridges" and quickly nodded in agreement

The preparation mentioned by the master is not complicated; he purchased two specially designed water bags. Each bag can hold as much as 5 liters of clean water. He also bought some cured meat, flatbreads, and fruits, managing to gather two large bags in total

Luo Sanpao seemed to understand the master's words, and with a pair of large eyes, he looked at Tang San, his gaze surprisingly carrying a hint of flattery.

Looking at the twenty-four smooth jade stones, Tang San almost instinctively recalled a famous line from a poem in his previous life, "On the night of the bright moon at the twenty-four bridges. Let us call it the night of the bright moon at the twenty-four bridges."

After sprinkling the powder, Tang San handed the bottle back to the master

Of course, this is not absolute. How can the wisdom of humans compare to that of soul beasts? The best method for hunting soul beasts is to form a team and head to the location of the soul beasts, with the final blow delivered by oneself, thus allowing for the acquisition of a soul ring. Therefore, what you mentioned about nobles and certain individuals with power indeed gives them a certain advantage in hunting soul beasts

The Soul Guidance Device is a completely new term for Tang San. Although he does not yet know the exact meaning of the Soul Guidance Device, the Master's explanation has already left him greatly shaken.

Three cannons, clearing the way ahead

"Little San, this is for you." The Master's calm voice startled Tang San from his thoughts. When he turned his gaze towards the Master, he noticed that at some point, the Master had acquired a beautiful belt in his hand.

Luo Sanpao was clearly somewhat dissatisfied and called out to Tang San a couple of times.

Outside the forest, large houses or rather shops are being constructed. Various shouts and calls rise and fall in succession, while simple, man-made paths crisscross through the area. The noisy atmosphere inevitably caused Tang San to frown.

Tang San said: "So the three higher-level tokens behind represent an additional type of martial soul, correct?"

Originally, Tang San was puzzled about how the Master would carry so many items into the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts. However, with the help of the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moonlight, these concerns were no longer an issue. As they traveled along, with nothing much to do, he began to practice controlling the storage and retrieval of items from the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moonlight under the Master's guidance. The items used for practice were those white radishes.

The master led Tang San into the market of what could be considered a small town, "Do you know why I bought everything in Nottingham?"

The master slightly changed his expression and made a shushing gesture towards Tang San, saying, "Do not ask similar questions outside. I will tell you later about the relationship between the Spirit Hall and the country. Obtaining the command token is not difficult; first, it requires the recognition of the Spirit Hall to confirm that you have indeed reached the peak of a certain stage of strength, and you need soul rings to advance. Secondly, you need the guarantee of at least three nobles." Obtaining the command token is not difficult; first, it requires the recognition of the Spirit Hall to confirm that you have indeed reached the peak of a certain stage of strength, and you need soul rings to advance. Secondly, you need the guarantee of at least three nobles.

Upon passing through the iron fence into the depths of the forest, all the noise seemed to have vanished, and the air finally became as fresh as Tang San had imagined. It provided a refreshing sensation to the mind and spirit

Since he could identify what the powder was, how could Tang San not realize the Master's intention? Without a moment's hesitation, he said: "It should serve two purposes: one is to mask our own scent, and the other is to repel creatures such as snakes, insects, and rodents"

Furthermore, spirit beasts are extremely proud creatures; no spirit beast would allow itself to be captured. If they are severely injured by an enemy and there is an attempt to capture them, the spirit beast would choose to self-destruct using its spirit power rather than be taken alive. This eliminates the scenario you mentioned. Even if someone is hired to hunt a spirit beast, if it is not killed by that person, it would be very difficult to obtain a spirit ring.

The solitary bamboo appears unremarkable; it is only because it is surrounded by tall trees rather than a bamboo grove that it easily attracts attention. Its body sways gently, with the bamboo strips above moving rhythmically in the wind

I apologize, teacher, for bringing up your sorrowful matters

For example, you are currently only a Level 10 Soul Master. With your current soul power, you can at most absorb the soul ring of a hundred-year-old soul beast. If you attempt to absorb a thousand-year soul ring, the outcome will only be one: your body will be unable to withstand it and will be destroyed by the power of the soul ring. When absorbing a soul ring, no external force can assist; you can only rely on yourself. Consider this: those who need help from others to hunt the soul beasts they require cannot possibly possess strong resilience. It is likely that even absorbing a soul ring that is suitable for them and within their control range could result in a devastating blow.

If you wish to obtain something, you must make corresponding efforts. Taking shortcuts is the act of the mediocre. The theory of martial souls that I study is merely to make the process of effort easier for soul masters. Tang San, you must remember that this world is fair. If you wish to obtain something, you must make corresponding efforts. Taking shortcuts is the act of the mediocre. The theory of martial souls that I study is merely to make the process of effort easier for soul masters. To become even stronger under equal strength conditions. Do you understand?

The master's research on martial souls is always so precise. Tang San feels that having such a teacher is undoubtedly a blessing

The master never forgets to impart his teachings to Tang San, continuing to walk forward while saying: "The recently encountered spotted cat belongs to the feline spirit beasts. Its inherent aggressiveness is quite strong, but as long as you do not take the initiative to attack it, it will not easily launch an attack. If a spirit beast is a feline, using it as your first spirit ring is also a good choice. Do not be deceived by the small size of the spotted cat you just saw; if it were a spotted cat over a thousand years old, not to mention us, even if there were ten times more of us, it would not be enough for it to kill."

Teacher, what did those people shouting about forming a group just now mean

While speaking, the master had already brought Tang San to the entrance of the Soul Hunting Forest

The master, instead of hurrying to leave the city with Tang San, headed towards the interior of the city.

"Little Third, don't you want to know what my martial soul is? This is my martial soul; you can call it Luo San Pao, or simply San Pao."

Tang San thought of an important question, "Teacher, how can we distinguish the strength of soul beasts? Or rather, their age?"

The master's rigid face revealed a trace of his signature unsightly smile, "This is a very good question. The differences in soul rings produced by soul beasts of varying levels primarily lie in the attributes they add to the soul master and the capabilities of their skills. For example, from a quantitative perspective, if your Blue Silver Grass martial soul follows the control-type soul master route, then obtaining a ten-year soul ring that matches your attributes will increase your control over the Blue Silver Grass by ten. However, if it is a hundred-year soul ring, your control over the Blue Silver Grass will increase by one hundred. This pattern continues. Therefore, whenever possible, all soul masters will strive to pursue more powerful martial souls."

As the sky gradually darkened, the forest was anything but tranquil, with the sounds of insects chirping, birds calling, and even the roars of wild beasts rising and falling.

Not far along, Luo Sanpao suddenly stopped, his large eyes gazing in one direction, emitting two chirping sounds from his mouth

The master shook his head and said calmly: "In the future, you may have the opportunity to join such a group. When choosing a group, you may not even need to consider the strength of the other members, but there is one thing you must keep in mind: in the group you join, you should be able to present your back to anyone else."

Continuing forward, the Master seemed to be giving Tang San a vivid practical lesson. With the keen sense of smell of the martial soul, the Three Cannons, even the soul beasts hidden in the shadows would be discovered one by one. Perhaps because these soul beasts were mostly of the ten-year level, their desire to attack was not strong. The Master introduced each of these soul beasts to Tang San, explaining their names, characteristics, and methods for identifying their cultivation years.

Master Dao: "This belt has accompanied me for many years and has also been neglected for many years. I hope that in the future it can shine with the brilliance it deserves in your hands"

The Master’s soul rings shimmered with brilliance, leading Tang San to follow behind Luo San Pao as they made their way into the depths of the Forest of Mixed Spirits

Do you know why I asked you to spread these to the periphery? The master's expression was serious; at this moment, he was the teacher testing his student

"The most powerful?" A glimmer of excitement flashed in Tang San's eyes

Tang San asked in surprise: "Why did we suffer a defeat? Was it due to insufficient strength?"

The forest, in Tang San's impression and in the illustrations of the book, should be filled with the essence of nature, serene and tranquil, with fresh air and sparse human presence

As soon as Tang San grasped the belt, he sensed its extraordinary nature. It seemed that numerous faint currents of energy were circulating within the belt, with these currents using the belt itself as a bridge and the jade as a reservoir.

"Teacher, is this your martial soul?" Tang San exclaimed, "But isn't the manifestation of a beast martial soul supposed to be possession? Why does it..."

When Tang San stepped down from the carriage, he found that the Soul Hunting Forest was completely different from what he had imagined

Hunt agile soul beasts, seven people will receive the order. Ten gold soul coins

The master took out a magnificent short sword from his bosom and handed it to Tang San

Without waiting for Tang San to inquire, the Master explained first: "A Soul Guidance Device, as the name suggests, is an apparatus that utilizes soul power. There are very few ancient Soul Guidance Devices, and most of them do not possess offensive capabilities. Soul Masters themselves do not require weapons. Soul Guidance Devices can be likened to cultural relics; however, the methods of their creation and production have long been lost. This belt was obtained by me and a few friends during an expedition. Soul Guidance Devices can be likened to cultural relics; however, the methods of their creation and production have long been lost. This belt was obtained by me and a few friends during an expedition and was distributed to me as a reward. For me, it holds little significance, but you should find it useful in the future. Why not give it a name?"

Master Dao: "It is very simple to use. Inject your soul power into that jade stone, and you will be able to sense the existence of its space. If you react quickly enough, the things within will seem to appear out of thin air. However, to master its characteristics, you will need to practice more. This will also be one of your tasks in the future"

Although the market was noisy and chaotic, when Tang San stepped out of the market and beheld the vast forest before him, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

The captain of the soldiers responsible for inspecting the tokens immediately displayed a look of respect upon seeing the three marks on the token. He hurriedly ordered the soldiers to clear a path, inviting the master to enter with Tang San. He did not even inquire why such a young child as Tang San was allowed to enter the Soul Hunting Forest

Upon entering the forest, the master did not hasten to proceed, but instead quietly observed his surroundings.

The master shook his head in self-deprecation, "It's nothing, I have long since gotten used to it. Come, let me introduce you to San Pao. It is named so because its call sounds like a series of 'luo luo' noises, and it can only launch an attack three times. Hence, it is called San Pao"

The master whispered, "The Soul Hunting Forest, which is kept in captivity, is not accessible to everyone. Only soul masters who have received a hand order issued by the Spirit Hall are permitted to enter the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt soul beasts. Although there are those who attempt to sneak in, such individuals rarely meet a good end. These soldiers are merely the outer defense; within the Soul Hunting Forest, there is also a dedicated enforcement team from the Spirit Hall that checks hand orders at any time. Those individuals are merciless."

A full twenty pounds of white radishes. Tang San's current task is to carry them. The weight of twenty pounds is not a problem for him. Of course, if it were a walk of four hundred miles, that would be an issue

The Master is undoubtedly a competent teacher, or rather, he places great importance on Tang San. Although he is now ready to rest, the Master still went through the soul beasts he had introduced to Tang San during the day from beginning to end, in order to deepen his impression.

The master noticed the curiosity in Tang San's eyes and handed him the token, "Remember this symbol; it is a unique mark of the Spirit Hall. Within the Spirit Hall, there are six types of marks. The distinction between each type of token is quite simple: it is based on the design depicted on it. The lowest grade token features only a sword, symbolizing the martial soul of a former chief executive of the hall. The next grade token has an additional hammer beside the sword, representing a once-powerful elder of the Spirit Hall."

The master gazed deeply at Tang San and said, "He is a Title Douluo, and one of the six most powerful Title Douluos."

The master nodded in satisfaction, "Indeed, that is correct. This is called snake-repelling powder, an essential for adventures. Remember, in the forest, especially in those inhabited by soul beasts, try to avoid using fire. Although most wild animals and soul beasts fear flames, there are a few particularly powerful soul beasts that are attracted to fire. Once you encounter them, unless your own cultivation is sufficiently strong, you will undoubtedly face death."

If these Tang San could understand, the Master also purchased something that left him perplexed, and this item was the most frequently bought.

While speaking, the master already held a token in his hand. The dark token was made of an unknown material, and the pattern on it was composed of three shapes. At the center was a sharp sword pointing downward, with a hammer on one side and a creature that Tang San had never seen before on the other.

Without discussing what this Luo San Pao is, it is evident that the master's martial soul surpasses the limitations of beast martial souls.

The campsite chosen by the master is located in a depression, surrounded by a complex terrain and enclosed by numerous towering trees

The tall trees and the *illustrated* books display their age, while a massive steel fence encircles the edge of the forest, revealing numerous sharp spikes towards one side of the forest. The height of the fence exceeds 10 meters and appears extremely sturdy

Tang San seemed to suddenly recall something, "Teacher, what are the titles of the six individuals you mentioned earlier who are respected by the Spirit Hall and have been inscribed on the tokens? Are they Soul Saints, Douluo, or Title Douluo"

Master Dao: "For now, let's hold off. If there are no more suitable options, it will ultimately come down to this. The selection of soul rings must be approached with caution, as each soul ring is irreplaceable. A soul master can absorb the soul rings of hundred-year soul beasts. More precisely, it refers to the soul rings of soul beasts with a cultivation level below four hundred and twenty-three years. I have thoroughly studied the growth experiences and failures of many soul masters. Four hundred and twenty-three years should be the limit that the first soul ring can withstand. Therefore, I hope your first soul ring will strive to approach this limit as closely as possible"

He was not someone who habitually sought shortcuts; relying on his own efforts and making steady progress towards his goals was the most solid approach

Indeed, it is a creature that resembles a dog in appearance, yet its size is more akin to that of a pig. Its length exceeds 1.5 meters, and its waist circumference is likely similar.

When a Soul Master reaches a higher level, especially beyond the Great Soul Master and enters the Soul Sovereign realm, they can obtain a direct noble title from the state by registering with the Spirit Hall, becoming a baron of the lowest rank. The higher the strength, the higher the noble title. Naturally, the income also increases correspondingly.

Without a fire, the surroundings were completely dark. Tang San and the Master had a simple dinner, and the two of them leaned against a large tree to rest.

The scabbard of the short sword is entirely a clear blue, inlaid with seven blue gemstones. At the hilt, there is a piece of milky white jade. The sword measures one foot and two inches in length. Although it has not left the scabbard, one can still feel a faint chill when holding it.

The master gently patted Tang San's head and smiled, saying: "Those who claim that weapon spirits are more powerful than beast spirits clearly do not have a sufficient understanding of martial souls. The strength of any martial soul hinges on two key factors. One is the amount of soul power attached at the time of awakening, and the other is the method and process of cultivation thereafter. Perhaps, before reaching level 30, beast spirits may be somewhat stronger than weapon spirits because they can be attached to oneself. However, at higher levels, there is no distinction between the two. The strength or weakness ultimately depends on personal cultivation."

Tang San questioned: "Doesn't that mean that the more powerful one is, the better soul rings one can obtain? Those nobles can completely rely on their family power to hunt for stronger soul rings for themselves"

The master sighed lightly, "At the same level, different soul rings and different martial souls result in completely different strengths. These six Title Douluo are undoubtedly among the strongest of the strong. Even if other soul masters reach above level 90 and enter the realm of Title Douluo, they cannot shake their status. This is still too distant for you at the moment. Alright, we need to prepare to enter the forest. From now on, do not leave my side for even a step." Even if other soul masters reach above level 90 and enter the realm of Title Douluo, they cannot shake their status. This is still too distant for you at the moment. Alright, we need to prepare to enter the forest. From now on, do not leave my side for even a step.

Hello.

Master Dao said: "One must always prepare some items for hunting soul beasts, and we cannot go on foot. Although a distance of 400 miles is not too far, it is always better to make good use of our time."

As the sun gradually rises from the east, the number of pedestrians in the city of Nottingham also begins to increase. Today is one of the few days when Tang San does not rely on the auspicious purple energy from the east to cultivate the Purple Extreme Magic Eye

There is a hand order to form a team to hunt a power-type soul beast, and we still need two more people

A truly excellent soul-hunting team must consist of at least five components: the food system soul master is responsible for supplies, the recovery system soul master is in charge of status and soul power recovery, the agility system battle soul master is responsible for reconnaissance, the strength system battle soul master is tasked with defense, and the attack system battle soul master is responsible for eliminating enemies. Only a team composed of these five components can be considered a complete team. Moreover, the coordination among members cannot be formed in just a day or two. The process of subtle influence alone requires at least several years of collaboration. More importantly, the members of the same team must trust each other completely. Absolute trust is essential; otherwise, in the face of danger, it is easy for the team to collapse in an instant.

Tang San still did not fully understand the master's meaning, but the master did not provide further explanation. He led him deeper into the market.

Master Dao: "Soul beasts are not so easy to hunt. Some soul beasts are inherently powerful, and even if they have not cultivated for long, they still possess strong offensive capabilities. This so-called group hunting of soul beasts involves multiple individuals cooperating with each other to hunt the soul beasts they need and obtain soul rings. With the help of others, one only needs to deliver the final blow to the soul beast. This is the most common and safest method of hunting soul beasts on the continent. However, forming a group is not that easy, is it?"

The currency exchange in Douluo Continent is as follows: one gold soul coin is equivalent to ten silver soul coins, which is equal to one hundred copper soul coins. One gold soul coin is sufficient for the normal expenses of an average three-person household for several months. This is also roughly equivalent to Tang San's earnings from working at Notting Academy for three years

The master's previously somewhat despondent gaze suddenly brightened, and with his hands clasped in front of his chest, he quickly spread them apart downwards, saying, "Come forth, Luo Sanpao."

"Little Three, do you know why I say that cultivating as a Soul Master is most important during youth?" The master's deep, hoarse voice carried a hint of sadness.

Teacher, shall we hunt this solitary bamboo?

Tang San sighed inwardly, perhaps this could be considered a small reminiscence of his previous life

The master smiled faintly and said: "It is a ten-year-old calico cat. San Pao, do not disturb it any longer. Continue moving forward"

This hand token of mine is a third-tier token from the Spirit Hall. With it, one can generally enter most of the Soul Hunting Forests in the Heaven Dou Empire, provided that these forests have not been home to a ten-thousand-year soul beast. Unlike the first two types of tokens, which must be returned to the Spirit Hall after completing a soul beast hunt, this one can be held for a lifetime. The token features a Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, which is considered a top-tier existence among beast spirit souls. Although its owner does not belong to the Spirit Hall, the family it represents is highly respected by the Spirit Hall.

The profession of Soul Master is regarded as the noblest on the continent, with income being a significant reason. Even just advancing from a Soul Scholar to a Soul Master allows one to enjoy a subsidy of one gold soul coin per month. This is sufficient for an ordinary person's basic living. Of course, this only covers basic living expenses; it is impossible to afford luxury.

Twenty-four gemstones, which equate to a storage capacity of twenty-four cubic meters, represent a place where one can store twenty-four types of hidden weapons. Tang San's gaze became fervent, and his inner desire for the enhancement of the Xuantian Skill reached an unparalleled level. He wished he could possess sufficient internal energy right now to practice the use of various hidden weapons. With this belt, there is no longer any need to worry about the storage of hidden weapons. He wished he could possess sufficient internal energy right now to practice the use of various hidden weapons. With this belt, there is no longer any need to worry about the storage of hidden weapons

The master took a large glass bottle from a wrist-mounted soul guide and handed it to Tang San, saying, "Sprinkle it around, and remember, it must be done evenly"

Tang San nodded seriously

The Three Cannons have a keen sense of smell, capable of detecting the traces and strengths of soul beasts. Although it has become weaker due to mutation, its consumption of soul power is also minimal. Therefore, I can keep it released for an extended period. Here, take this. The final blow to the soul beast must be delivered by you.

Thirty years ago, when I obtained it, I did not know its name. However, based on my years of research, it can be considered a top-tier soul guide device, serving the purpose of storage. By simply infusing your own soul power into it, each piece of jade can provide one cubic meter of storage space, making it convenient for storing such items

Tang San's ability to draw inferences from one instance to another is quite impressive. "Teacher, these two individuals must hold a very important position in the Spirit Hall. However, I have heard before that beast spirits are stronger than weapon spirits, so these two soul masters should both possess weapon spirits, right?"

After searching for a long time, although there were quite a few soul beasts that met the criteria, the Master did not rush to take action, but patiently continued to seek.

Yes, teacher

Fortunately, after the master procured all these items, he immediately hired a carriage within the city, giving the driver five silver coins

Tang San shook his head, waiting for the teacher's explanation

The master nodded and said: "Indeed. These six types of martial soul marks represent six powerful soul masters, as well as six formidable families. Three of them are in our Tiandou Empire, while the other three are in the Xingluo Empire"

"Good." Tang San took the bottle, which contained some powdery substances with a pungent smell. Tang San's nose twitched, and he could already identify that this was similar to the arsenic from his previous life. The Tang Sect is renowned for its hidden weapons and poisons; although he is an outer disciple, he possesses considerable expertise in identifying poisons. During his previous search for soul beasts, he had found many poisonous herbs in the Soul Hunting Forest that he could recognize, which he included in the Twenty-Four Bridges Bright Moonlight. The master's knowledge of martial souls is beyond doubt, but when it comes to identifying these non-soul power poisonous herbs, he is far inferior to Tang San, who has the experience of two lifetimes. Especially since many of these poisonous herbs require specific combinations to exhibit their toxic properties.

Similar calls echoed one after another, and most of the shops lining the street sold various weapons, armor, and food supplies

Long before Tang San heard the rumors about those masters, he already knew that a master was a person of great dedication. His devotion to the martial soul was akin to Tang San's own commitment to hidden weapons. This is also why Tang San has never regretted taking the master as his teacher. Perhaps, this is what it means to appreciate one another.
