Douluo's journey to becoming stronger begins with eating soul beast meat

Chapter 823: People's Beliefs, Resonance of Hearts

When she regained consciousness, the first thing she saw was the wounds all over her body.

The wounds are not very big, but they are all over the body. If you come back a little later, the small wounds may expand further and cause irreversible consequences.

However, she has now returned, and both her consciousness and mental strength are no longer the same.

The pink-gold mental power entered the body and quickly took control of the flow of soul power in the body. The soul ring energy, which was still under the control of the Nine-Hearted Begonia's fluctuations, was no longer able to resist Ye Lingling's control.

The situation of energy chaos was completely resolved in a devastating way.

As she resonated with her martial soul, her mental strength level continued to increase, and the pink-gold color of the Nine-Hearted Begonia was completely fixed on her martial soul.

Of course, the improvement of mental power is related to the stamens of the mandragora flower, but the more important part is the evolved Nine-Hearted Begonia, which shows the characteristics in terms of soul and mental power.

This resulted in Ye Lingling's mental attributes also being greatly improved along with the improvement of her martial soul.

The energy of the soul ring was being absorbed rapidly. After a moment's silence, the black soul ring on the Nine-Hearted Begonia quickly penetrated into the martial soul.

This also symbolizes the successful absorption of the ten thousand year soul ring.

Ye Lingling, whose body was covered with wounds, slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the delicate pink and gold crabapple flower floating in front of her, her eyes revealing emotions of remembrance and longing.

However, her expression soon changed into a smile.

People cannot be imprisoned in the memories of the past forever, but that does not mean they should forget the past.

Ye Lingling released the pain by facing her own heart, and stepped out of the inner barrier with the most precious memories.

"Grandma, thank you. It's time for me to move forward."

Tears welled up in her eyes, but the smile on her face became even brighter.

After saying goodbye to her past self in her heart, Ye Lingling wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and turned to look at Quan Yi.

Her eyes were full of unyielding provocation and pride.

That expression seemed to be saying, 'Humph, your test is nothing special, but I still managed to break through it.'

The dragon pupil in Quan Yi's eyes flickered slightly, and he had a lot of feelings in his heart.

After staring at each other for a moment, his expression softened, and he celebrated with a tone and expression of genuine approval:

"Congratulations on breaking through to Soul Master and completing the second awakening of your martial soul ahead of schedule, Sister Ling."

Sister Ling, this intimate name was uttered from Quan Yi's mouth for the first time.

When Ye Lingling heard Quan Yi calling her like that, the smile on her face became wider. She knew that this was Quan Yi's expression of approval of her.

It was clearly just a simple change of name, but it made her feel as happy as a breakthrough.

She stood up and replied, "Of course, you don't even care who your sister Ling is, Xiaoyi."

Ye Lingling fought back against Quan Yi unyieldingly and called him Xiaoyi.

Although she was grateful to him, she had not forgotten the pain of having her soul and body torn apart.

A little revenge, so what?

Quan Yi could only smile bitterly and endure it silently.

At this time, Qi Feng, who had been silent for a long time, walked towards Ye Lingling with an unstable breath, and paid close attention to her physical condition.

He looked at the scars on his daughter's body with heartache, then gave her a thumbs up with a gratified expression.

Everything is unspoken.

The father's love and pride for his daughter are condensed in these expressions and actions.

Ye Lingling's eyes were red. She first used the brand new black soul ring to release pink and gold petals to quickly heal her injuries. Then she couldn't help but snuggle into her father's arms and release all her emotions.

Qi Feng hugged his daughter tenderly, stroking her back with red eyes. He didn't know how long Ye Lingling had been crying.

As far as he could remember, it seemed like he had only heard it once when he was six years old, and he had never seen it again.

This belated cry seems to symbolize new life.

After a long time, Ye Lingling completely released everything that had been pent up in her body. With red eyes and a blushing face, she looked at Quan Yi and Huo Wu and explained her gains to the two who had been waiting for a long time.

"Thanks to the flower stamen and the ten thousand year spirit ring, my martial spirit has indeed completed its evolution as you said.

In terms of soul skills, the appearance of the new soul ring did not bring me any new soul skills.

However, the effect of the original range-based overall treatment has changed significantly.

And this change, which you have demonstrated before, Xiaoyi, is the effect of repairing soul damage.

You should have known this when you first came into contact with the Nine-Hearted Begonia, so you asked me to absorb the Mandragora Flower, right?"

This is the question Ye Lingling most wants to ask Quan Yi.

Quan Yi, who had witnessed the awakening state of martial soul before, must know many facts that she didn't know.

Now that I know all this, when I think back on Quan Yi's choice, I can only feel that he had it 'premeditated'.

In response, Quan Yi shook his head and said, "No, what you said is not accurate.

I asked you to absorb the Mandragora Flower because I wanted to make up for your weakness in mental strength, but this ability is a natural effect after the martial soul awakens.

I just want to advance this process as much as possible within Sister Ling's tolerance.

However, I didn't expect that you would be able to complete your evolution at the Soul Sect stage. This was not within my expectations.

According to my calculations, even if one absorbs soul rings beyond the age limit, one must at least reach the Soul King realm to barely meet the conditions for a second awakening.

And you accomplished this surprisingly early, which means that there is another factor that affects the result. "

Ye Lingling was surprised at first, and then she was slightly disturbed by the last sentence.

She recalled the noisy but unusually soothing cries that echoed in her mind not long ago. It was because of the guidance of the voices that she was able to wake up so quickly.

Quan Yi noticed the change in Ye Lingling's expression and chose to clear her up.

“It seems you’ve already felt it.

Let me explain. Essentially, your second awakening of martial soul is very different from my second awakening of martial soul.

If my second awakening was to rely on high-level wood-attribute energy to forcibly mature my martial soul.

Then your awakening was recognized by your martial soul, and your martial soul naturally matured under the support of many thoughts.

Although it looks the same, there are huge differences inside.”

“Many thoughts.”

Ye Lingling repeated the word in a low voice, her pupils trembling violently.

"Are the voices I heard real?"

At this point, Quan Yi's heart suddenly became agitated, and he couldn't help but raise his voice and said excitedly:

“Don’t you understand yet? The voices guiding you are the thoughts infused into the martial spirit by the ancestors of the Ye family who passed down the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial spirit.

Your will has been recognized by them, and the thoughts hidden in your martial soul have helped you complete the second awakening of your martial soul.

This is a hymn to human faith and a miracle caused by the resonance of hearts.

The Nine-Hearted Begonia is truly worthy of its name."
