Chapter 3, The Death Star Scythe
Although Lu Yuan had little understanding of the background story of the Odyssey in his previous life, he was still aware that the Death Star Scythe, which was housed by Rayas, was significantly more powerful than the Darkborn Scythe in the Odyssey narrative
Even without having tested his soul power, Su Yuntao firmly believes that Lu Yuan's soul power is definitely not low
If a martial soul that appears so powerful and exudes an aura of dominance is a worthless martial soul with no soul power, then it is even more unlikely that those unremarkable martial souls possess any soul power at all
At this moment, he is quite uncertain; in his uncertainty, he tends to rely more on his common sense. "When a martial soul awakens, the highest it can reach is innate full soul power. This kind of performance is likely a result of innate full soul power combined with an exceptionally strong martial soul."
Despite the considerable size of the scythe and its overall heavy appearance, it feels almost weightless in Lu Yuan's hands
The appearance of this scythe differs significantly from the Darkin Scythe in Kayn's original skin; at the very least, the Darkin Scythe in the original artwork is entirely ancient in style and does not possess such a technologically advanced appearance.
Lu Yuan was quite obedient, extending the right hand of a child to position it against Su Yuntao's wolf claw on the crystal ball, creating a striking contrast in their respective placements.
Suddenly, the blue and the book-colored crystal ball erupted with dazzling brilliance, the striking blue light spreading from a single point in an instant. In the blink of an eye, this crystal ball shone like a brilliant gem.
Su Yuntao immediately became even more restless, "Come here, child... By the way, what is your name?"
Indeed, it is important to note that Lu Yuan awakened a martial soul with "Innate Full Soul Power," which is distinctly different from Tang San's widely recognized "useless martial soul" Blue Silver Grass. Lu Yuan's martial soul is a scythe-shaped weapon that clearly possesses formidable combat power
Do not even mention divine-level martial souls; it is likely that one might struggle to encounter even a single person with soul power each year
Suddenly, Lu Yuan felt a pang in his heart
However
"Alright, Xiaoyuan, come over and test your soul power... First, retract your martial soul..." Su Yuntao was about to indicate to Lu Yuan how to retract his martial soul, but before he could finish speaking.
No villager of Lujiacun possesses a scythe martial spirit as immense, exquisite, and imbued with a sense of slaughter as that of Lu Yuan's scythe martial spirit today
However, such matters are not critical; compared to the scythe's soul weapon itself, this is hardly something that Lu Yuan should be astonished by
This is the reason why the Haotian Sect and the Blue Electric Tyrant Sect, despite possessing powerful and relatively stable top-tier martial souls, are still suppressed by the Spirit Hall and do not dare to speak out
However, this worldview is still somewhat inferior compared to the worldview of the Odyssey series skins
Even Su Yuntao was pierced by this dazzling light to the point of shedding a few tears, and this was a situation he had never encountered before
Even though he is quite experienced in the awakening of martial souls in Douluo fan fiction, having encountered divine-level martial souls, holy-level martial souls, and world-destroying martial souls, apart from the teasing found in fan works, Su Yuntao is merely an ordinary attendant at the Martial Soul Hall's awakening ceremony
It is important to note that although both Odyssey Kayn and Shadow Reaper Kayn are skins of Kayn, the worldviews of the former and the latter are completely different
The guiding force of Su Yuntao's soul is not the main reason; the key point lies in the words he involuntarily shouted just now—"Heaven's decree, supreme authority"
However, this statement was not something he wanted to express voluntarily; it seemed more like an involuntary utterance
Is there really a martial soul that inherently exceeds level 10 soul power?" At this point, Su Yuntao couldn't help but chuckle to himself
Could it be that ... ... Lu Yuandong suddenly thought of something
Kayn's background story is still imprisoned in the fantasy world of the Valoran continent, despite the presence of great beings such as Ascendants, Star Spirits, Demigods, and Deities
At that moment, Su Yuntao quickly approached, standing in front of him, and asked, "What is your martial soul?"
Su Yuntao must report to the higher-ups of the Spirit Hall, which is also the reason why the Spirit Hall has been dedicated to conducting free spirit awakening ceremonies across the continent.
After all, the Rune World is still confined to a single world, a single planet, whereas the Odyssey worldview spans countless star systems, governed by the Demacian government across numerous galaxies and star seas. The empire's territory is vast and boundless, essentially a colossal entity that stretches across more than half of the universe
The enormous scythe-shaped weapon, although it is said that the soul weapons passed down through generations in Lu Family Village are all scythes, Su Yuntao, having been responsible for the southwestern village of Notting City for such a long time, has naturally witnessed numerous awakenings of the scythe soul weapons among the villagers of Lu Family Village.
This sentence is a line from the independent voice pack of the Kayn Odyssey skin, which is quite dramatic and is also one of Lu Yuan's favorite lines from his past life
After all, for a child of such a large age, it is difficult to say how many characters he recognizes. Therefore, Su Yuntao is more inclined to believe that Lu Yuan's martial soul is indeed this name, just like the top-tier martial souls such as the Haotian Hammer, the Blue Electric Tyrannosaurus Rex, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which are inherently endowed with their own names
Alright, the innate full soul power martial soul, the Death Star Demon Scythe, is possessed by Lu Yuan from Lu Family Village in Notting City. This must be reported to the higher authorities!
Is this... the Darkin Scythe of Kayn? Lu Yuan couldn't help but think to himself
Lu Yuan
Su Yuntao glanced at Lu Yuan, who was approximately six years old, and felt that a child like him would not exaggerate the name of his martial soul just to appear more impressive
What he referred to is naturally the daughter of the former and current Pope of the Spirit Hall
They need to recruit talented soul masters from outside the major soul sects and families to enhance their own strength
He then saw the enormous scythe in Lu Yuan's hand vanish without a trace, and immediately he coughed once, saying, "Then come over and place your hand on the blue crystal ball in my hand."
Lu Yuan blinked, then looked at the enormous scythe in his hand with a face full of disbelief
Lu Yuan heard his muttering and couldn't help but scoff internally, "Sorry, but this world really does have martial souls with innate soul power exceeding level 10, and they are indeed from your Spirit Hall."
A weapon forged from the Dead Star Spirit, capable of annihilating entire star systems and devouring cosmic energy, is the ultimate weapon
Is this... the innate full soul power? Su Yuntao couldn't help but say, "But shouldn't the manifestation of innate full soul power only be the 'emission of a blue light halo'?"
Death... Death Star Scythe? Su Yuntao suddenly stuttered; without mentioning anything else, this name sounds exceptionally powerful
But it is the Death Star Scythe! Lu Yuan firmly confirmed in his heart
This scythe is the Death Star Scythe from Kayn's Odyssey skin
It is precisely for this reason that the Spirit Hall has been able to overpower the Haotian Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, and other sects, becoming the most powerful force on the Douluo Continent
Lu Yuan felt somewhat puzzled; it seemed that he had just accepted Su Yuntao's soul power guidance to awaken the Death Star Demon Scythe martial soul, yet he always had the feeling...
Lu Yuandong immediately began to ponder deeply. The question before him was whether, once Su Yuntao reported to the Spirit Hall, he would have to consider joining the Spirit Hall and becoming a member of it
It is as if a blue star is right before one's eyes, making it difficult to open one's eyes and gaze directly at the soul power testing crystal
It is called the Death Star Scythe, Lu Yuan said honestly
But soon he denied it in his heart, "No... this is not the Shadow Reaper's dark scythe."
