Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Chapter 718: Chen Clan Immortal Clan! The Secret of Innate Full Soul Power!
Bo Xian'er turned to Chen Zixiu, with a hint of expectation in her eyes: "Okay, Zixiu, how about taking me to your courtyard? Xiao Xiaojun, you can also come with us."

Chen Zixiu nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."

He then turned around, made a polite gesture of invitation, and took Boxianer out of the hall, leading the way with ease.

After passing through the winding corridors, the group arrived at a quiet courtyard on Lanxin Mountain.

The fragrance of flowers and the shadows of trees in the courtyard are intertwined, creating a quiet and tranquil atmosphere.

Chen Xiaojun looked around curiously, then turned to Bo Xian'er and asked tentatively, "My great-grandmother brought me here, so I guess you have something to tell me?"

Hearing this, Bo Xian'er raised a faint smile at the corner of her mouth: "That's true, Xiao Xiaojun."

"I have heard some stories about you from Zixiu, but I feel that he did not give enough details. Can you tell me in detail?"

Chen Xiaojun's heart was moved, and he thought to himself: "My great-grandmother, the high priestess, is indeed worthy of her reputation. She has a sharp vision and decisive actions. She must not be underestimated."

He met Bo Xian'er's gaze and responded with a smile: "Since great-grandmother is interested, then I will tell you everything I know. Great-grandmother, where should I start?"

Bo Xian'er nodded, "We have plenty of time, you can talk slowly, just start from the beginning."

So, Chen Xiaojun began to tell the story, "One morning five years ago..."

When Chen Xiaojun finally finished his long narration, Boxianer fell into deep thought.

After a long time, she took out an exquisite test ball from the storage soul guide. The ball was crystal clear and emitted a faint light.

Chen Zixiu asked curiously, "Xian'er, what is this? A test ball?"

"Well, this is a test ball specially made by the Sea God Temple," Bo Xian'er explained, "It is specially used to test the innate soul power of the Sea God's martial spirit inheritors. Xiaojun, you try it."

Chen Xiaojun was a little confused: "But I'm already level 39 now, can I still take the test?"

"Of course," Bo Xian'er said affirmatively, "Innate soul power mainly tests the affinity between the body and soul power."

"This test ball is very special. Even if you are at a high level, it can still measure your current innate soul power."

"We occasionally use it during our Poseidon assessments."

Chen Xiaojun took the test ball and input his soul power as instructed.

I saw a blue light flashing on the test ball, followed by a golden light spot rising slowly and eventually filling half of the sphere.

Bo Xian'er looked at the test results and nodded with satisfaction: "Innate soul power level 15. It seems that after using the Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone, your innate soul power has improved and is on par with Xiao Xixi."

Chen Xiaojun widened his eyes, with a bit of doubt in his tone: "Great-grandmother, Xixi's innate soul power is level 15?"

Bo Xian'er nodded gently, and said in a graceful tone: "That's right, the gift of the Sea God's Martial Spirit has given us a starting point that surpasses ordinary people. Although I claim to be extraordinary, I was only at level thirteen at the beginning, while Xixi's soul power is the most gifted Sea Goddess in hundreds of years."

She turned to Chen Xiaojun, her eyes full of admiration: "And you, Xiao Xiaojun, your talent and understanding are rare."

"You have brought great fortune to the Chen family, and the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire, and have become the son of destiny between heaven and earth. No wonder your master, the all-powerful master, took you in as his disciple."

Bo Xian'er smiled slightly, with a hint of regret, and said softly: "If it weren't for Xixi, I really want to recommend you to participate in the Sea God's test. Maybe you can trigger a miracle in the Sea God's nine tests." Chen Xiaojun smiled slightly and shook his head: "Great-grandmother, I have no interest in the Sea God's test; my ambition is not to become a god, but to become an immortal."

He thought to himself: "If I didn't have the golden finger to help me, and I didn't have concerns about the Sea God, maybe I would really take the test. But at this moment, I am determined to become an immortal and have high aspirations."

"Yes, become an immortal." Chen Xiaojun's eyes were firm. "Becoming a god and becoming an immortal each have their own paths and pursuits."

"But I yearn for the freedom after becoming an immortal, to be able to roam between heaven and earth, without being bound by the divine world."

"Since it is known that becoming a god requires perfection of essence, energy and spirit, I guess the way to becoming an immortal may be similar. I believe that in the 'system' that Master left me, there must be a method to become an immortal."

"I hope that our Chen family can open up a path to immortality, stand proudly on the top of the blue sky, and become the Chen family of immortals, the sword immortal Chen family."

Chen Zixiu and Bo Xian'er looked at each other, and there was a deep shock in their eyes.

Chen Zixiu was the first to break the silence, a proud smile appeared on his lips, and he sighed softly: "The Chen family is a great sword fairy! Our great-grandson is really ambitious, which is gratifying."

He recalled the poem he had heard from Chen Xiaojun before, and could not help but recite it: "One day the sleeping dragon will finally get rain, today the crane is released and soars into the sky; you must know that the young man's ambition to reach the clouds was once the best in the world!"

Thinking about it now, this poem is a true portrayal of Chen Xiaojun’s inner world.

Bo Xian'er was shocked even more strongly. The teachings of her years of serving the Sea God surged in her heart, and at this moment seemed to be completely overturned.

She frowned slightly, and her voice was filled with worry and doubt: "Even if you have the skills to become an immortal, have you ever thought about whether this world will allow you to become an immortal?"

"Even if you can become an immortal, how will the God Realm view an immortal from a different school like you? Will they be able to accommodate you?"

After many years of career as a high priestess, she had learned a little bit about the situation in the divine world from ancient texts and oracles.

There was an indescribable feeling of depression in the air. In the silence, only the gentle breeze brought a barely perceptible coolness.

However, Chen Zixiu quickly broke the silence. He said in a lighthearted tone, "Let's talk about it later. Xiaojun is still young and has plenty of time."

Chen Xiaojun also agreed, "Yes, great-grandmother, let's take it step by step, there's no need to rush."

His smile was as warm as the sunshine, instantly dispelling the haze in the air.

He thought of something and continued to ask, "I have always had a question. Grandpa once said that one needs to have full innate soul power to be promoted to peerless Douluo. What is the meaning behind this? And what does it mean to be innate for more than ten levels?"

Bo Xian'er stared at Chen Xiaojun, unable to conceal her admiration, and explained: "The tenth level of innate is the symbol of the perfection of the martial soul. It represents the flawlessness of the martial soul in breadth."

"Beyond level ten, each additional level is a further expansion of the martial soul in depth, an infinite extension of potential."

She paused, and her tone became more solemn: "The artistic conception we gained by breaking through the title all came from the extension of the martial spirit."

"To become a peerless Douluo, one must combine state of mind and martial spirit to comprehend a rule between heaven and earth. This is extremely difficult, so naturally there are very few such people. It is good to have two or three every hundred years."

"The perfection of the innate tenth-level martial soul is one of the conditions for reaching this realm. Although it is not absolute, it is not far off."

"As for the innate soul power reaching level 20, that will be the true state of 'perfection', which means that with the dual perfection of martial soul and artistic conception, one has the potential to become a god."
