Chapter 19: Braised Beef in a Jar and One Second Three Sticks, A Letter to Mu Ye (

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Evil Eye Tyrant both died, leaving behind three external soul bones that can be called treasures of the blood river.

In the era of the Long Wang Legend, the soul beast clan is on the verge of extinction, and soul bones are becoming more and more rare, not to mention that external soul bones are national-level treasures in any era, especially falling into the hands of monster soul masters, which is equivalent to absorbing a ferociously beast soul bone!

Xiang Xiang Naer held the Evil Eye and flashed to Zhao Xuanzhen's side, sighing: "Three external soul bones, the Evil Eye Tyrant is likely an Evil Emperor bloodline, and that Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear exploded two palm bones, most likely Xiong Jun's descendants.

The most powerful race, the top-level parts, the most fitting attributes, this time Aunt Leng made the Spirit Tower bleed heavily!"

"More than that, Teacher is clearly drilling loopholes in the rules, transferring two soul beasts into the Haicheng Spirit Ascension Platform in advance, and sending us over to kill them." Zhao Xuanzhen interface.

"After the Tower Master knows, although he can't do anything to Teacher, he will learn from his mistakes. Soul masters will kill the Spirit Ascension Platform guardian again, and the Spirit Tower will also prevent them from absorbing external soul bones."

The value of external soul bones is no lower than 100,000-year soul bones. Zhao Xuanzhen has lived in the Spirit Tower for ten years and understands the rules and costs.

Tang Wulin safely absorbed the hundred-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw right palm bone without being settled by the Spirit Tower, 98% of which was because Gu Yue played a role in secret, perhaps using Leng Yaoju's authority to forcibly suppress the legacy issues behind that soul bone.

"Absorb the soul bone, and then we go shopping in Haicheng and eat special food!" Xiang Xiang Naer said impatiently.

"You go first, I'll protect you."

Located in the riot period Spirit Ascension Platform, it is necessary to prevent soul beasts from disturbing. The two staggered absorbing soul bones to be foolproof.

Xiang Xiang Naer sat cross-legged, soul power pulling the external soul bone Evil Eye to fuse with herself.

Soul bones can enhance the physical ability of soul masters, and at the same time give soul masters soul skills that are connected to soul bones. As a spiritual soul beast, the Evil Eye Tyrant will increase Xiang Xiang Naer's spiritual power by a large margin, and the soul skills contained in the Evil Eye are also related to spirit, and may even obtain space power.

Leng Yaoju did not choose soul bones at random, but analyzed the characteristics of the two people's abilities to find soul beast types that were suitable and powerful.

Xiang Xiang Naer's spiritual power far exceeds soul masters of the same level, and the Bai Yin Longqiang walks the space path. The Evil Eye Tyrant who comprehends space attributes is the first choice.

Zhao Xuanzhen's True Self martial soul covers body and spirit, and his Tai Chi punch fights the world in close combat. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw is the first palm bone recognized by the soul master world. How great is the amplification for the hands, and the strength of fists and palms will undoubtedly soar again.

Halfway through, Xiang Xiang Naer woke up slowly without encountering any trouble. Meeting the Silver Long Wang half-body, the thousand-year Evil Eye Tyrant really couldn't make any waves.

After fusing with the external soul bone Evil Eye, Xiang Xiang Naer's silver pupils seemed to be brighter and more brilliant, revealing a clear and smart look, light halos flowing, pupils like exquisite and shining crystals, moving people's hearts.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw left and right palm bones floated up, dragging two dark golden rays of light, light spots emerged one after another, close to Zhao Xuanzhen's palms.

"Pity, it would be perfect if the Dark Gold Terrorclaw had an elbow bone."

One second before fusion, Zhao Xuanzhen still missed the super elbow strike.

The energy released by the two external soul bones surged into the palms like a hundred rivers returning to the sea. A layer of dark golden flow light rippled on the surface of the skin. The flow light jumped and twisted, the light kept changing between light and dark, and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw struggled violently, resisting fusing with the human soul master.

This matter was not up to the Dark Gold Terrorclaw. Zhao Xuanzhen violated the wishes of the two external soul bones and forcibly absorbed all the soul bone energy by relying on his rigid physical fitness.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear light shadow condensed. Under Zhao Xuanzhen's cold forcing, the huge and majestic beast body was inexplicably weak, pitiful, and helpless, and finally roared low as if compromising, which was considered to be recognizing this perverted host.

Everything went smoothly. Zhao Xuanzhen opened his eyes, and what came into view was Xiang Xiang Naer's pretty face, and those blinking big eyes.

Xiang Xiang Naer looked at Zhao Xuanzhen's hands that had almost no changes, a trace of surprise flashed in the depths of her eyes, and she asked curiously: "Zhao Xuanzhen, I suddenly discovered one thing."

"Oh?"

"I found a book in the headquarters library before, recording the data of the body martial soul. It says that the body martial soul awakener is vastly different from ordinary people, because the body martial soul causes drastic changes in body cells." Xiang Xiang Naer said.

"For example, if the body martial soul is an arm, the soul master's arm will be exceptionally thick even if the martial soul is not possessed, and the brain soul master's head will be very large.

What is your situation? The True Self not only has no physical changes, but even absorbing the Dark Gold Terrorclaw is the same. Your palms look exactly the same as before."

Hearing this, Zhao Xuanzhen couldn't help but smile: "The body martial soul is a part of the soul master's body. Every body martial soul is a different self. I can change my body, expand and shrink as I wish, but that kind of thing has no actual effect.

Strength lies in every strong muscle, every tough meridian, every drop of flowing blood, regardless of volume."

"Expand and shrink the body as you wish?"

Xiang Xiang Naer didn't pay attention to the latter sentence, but pondered the former sentence, and said seriously with a small face:

"Can it be done anywhere?"

"Why would I lie to you, full coverage without dead ends... No, wait!"

Zhao Xuanzhen reacted suddenly, looked at Xiang Xiang Naer who was blushing, and glared at her angrily.

Oh my big yellow girl!

The two laughed and made trouble for a while, exited the riot period Spirit Ascension Platform together, and returned to the Haicheng Spirit Tower.

In the observation room, Leng Yaoju watched the two proud children stand up and smiled: "Congratulations on passing the test and getting the rewards you deserve."

"Aunt Leng, you are so good!" Xiang Xiang Naer immediately offered praise.

Leng Yaoju gently stroked Xiang Xiang Naer's soft silver long hair, her crimson phoenix eyes cast towards Zhao Xuanzhen, saying: "I have an appointment with Gu Yue's mother, Purple Dragon Douluo, to meet and discuss Gu Yue joining the Spirit Tower, and by the way, probe the background of this hidden family.

You two little guys act freely, I will send two teams of Haicheng Spirit Tower law enforcement officers to protect you."

"Okay, Teacher/Aunt Leng."

The moist evening breeze rubbed against her cheeks, and the sunset filled the sky, which was beautiful. The shadows of the two swayed into flowing broken gold in the sunset, the girl's white skirt fluttered, and the bell hanging on the red rope at her waist jingled.

"What to eat?" Zhao Xuanzhen took out the soul guidance communicator to find food strategies, "Haicheng is famous for seafood, I'll pick a restaurant on the Soul Net and book a seafood feast?"

"No!"

Xiang Xiang Naer shook her head like a rattle, stood on tiptoe, and looked down at Zhao Xuanzhen with contempt: "Who goes to the restaurant recommended by the Soul Net when traveling? Those are all to deceive outsiders!

We go to the hidden small restaurant in the local area to taste the local customs!"

"Seems to make sense... where is the local small restaurant hiding?"

Xiang Xiang Naer was waiting for Zhao Xuanzhen's sentence. Her tail instantly tilted to the sky, and she said triumphantly: "On the way to Haicheng, I posted on the Soul Net, specifically looking for a restaurant that didn't look difficult to eat, and the text said Haicheng was average, not as good as the neighboring Tiandingcheng, a real food desert!

The Haicheng locals were unhappy, criticized me for not knowing the goods, and then recommended the small restaurant they often go to, and some even took the initiative to treat me to taste the real food in Haicheng!"

"Oh my..."

Zhao Xuanzhen was stunned. It's broken, I've become a silly foreigner!

Xiang Xiang Naer took Zhao Xuanzhen's arm and said earnestly: "When it comes to finding food, ten of you can't compare to one of me. Follow the witty Xiang Xiang Naer King, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied tonight!"

Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer shuttled through Haicheng, heading towards the target restaurant. Behind them, two teams of Spirit Tower law enforcement officers hung far away, neither interfering with the two little ancestors shopping, nor ensuring that they could provide protection at any time.

The two came to an old street full of life, shops lined both sides, and various aromas drifted and mixed, making the gluttonous worms in the stomach move.

"Braised beef in a jar..."

Zhao Xuanzhen looked up at the yellowed old brand, slightly hesitant: "Did the Haicheng locals recommend this to you?"

Xiang Xiang Naer was full of confidence: "They said this braised beef in a jar is super delicious. Let's learn from the ordinary people on the Soul Net to explore the shop today. Zhao Xuanzhen, you hurry up and think of two slogans!"

Zhao Xuanzhen smiled helplessly, slogans are not easy.

Exploring the shop is full of lies, true or false, Xiang Xiang Naer says!

Xuanzhen explores, true or false is revealed!

The braised beef shop in the jar is not big, the stove is facing the street, there are nearly a hundred fire eyes on it, and the bronze-yellow jars for stewing beef are placed. The beef aroma is steaming, making the jar lids buzz. The aroma tempts passersby.

The middle-aged uncle boss wore an apron with some oil stains on his waist, and invited the two to sit down with a full face of smiles. Beef, side dishes, rice, and drinks were served one after another.

Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer uncovered the jar lids, revealing the beef floating in the amber soup. The meat pieces were full of sauce and had a honey-colored luster. Zhao Xuanzhen picked up a piece of trembling beef, the soup pulled out golden threads and fell into the bowl, and he sent it into his mouth to taste it carefully.

AUV, that's authentic!

Zhao Xuanzhen admitted that the braised beef in the jar had something, no wonder it was recommended by the locals!

Xiang Xiang Naer was eating happily, and a jar of beef and rice entered her stomach in two or three minutes. Her eyes turned cunningly, and her chopsticks reached into Zhao Xuanzhen's jar secretly.

"Ding——"

The tips of the two people's chopsticks met in the jar. Zhao Xuanzhen laughed: "What are you doing?"

"Eat a piece! Eat a piece!"

Xiang Xiang Naer's bright silver pupils were shining puppy eyes at this moment.

"Order more if it's not enough."

"You don't understand, grabbing meat from someone else's bowl is fragrant!"

Zhao Xuanzhen withdrew his chopsticks. Xiang Xiang Naer got her wish. The beef was full of soup and exploded between her teeth. Fine sweat oozed from her pretty nose. Zhao Xuanzhen pushed the iced plum juice over, and the water droplets condensed on the cup wall wound over his slender knuckles.

"Boss, ten more jars of beef, fifty salt-grilled prawns."

"Alright!"

Braised beef in a jar was at most a bottoming for Xiang Xiang Naer. She chewed salt-grilled prawns in her mouth and chatted aimlessly with Zhao Xuanzhen: "Have you heard? Tomorrow night is the once-in-a-thousand-year night of stars shining on the continent."

"Saw it." Zhao Xuanzhen's eyes flickered, "On the night of stars shining, the stars in the universe will erupt with vast and boundless star power. On that night, star-phase martial soul combat power will increase greatly, cultivation speed will soar, and meditating for one night is equivalent to half a month of hard cultivation."

Xiang Xiang Naer supported her small face with one hand: "The night of stars shining is rare in a thousand years, otherwise star-phase martial souls would become the number one martial soul on the continent."

"Not necessarily, the defects of star-phase martial souls are also quite a few..."

"Li Lao, it's time to pay the protection fee for this month!"

At this moment, the rough voice broke the warm atmosphere of the braised beef shop in the jar. The boss Li's face was pale, and the customers in the shop changed their expressions one by one. They were all regular customers of this food street and naturally knew who was coming.

Five big men broke into the shop. The leader was a bald strong man, with a pair of arms bare, and the ferocious dragon tattoo was vivid.

Braised beef in a jar fixed refresh NPC, Iron Armored Dragon Soul Venerable Guang Long!

"Guang Long, my family's woman is sick, the money earned from braised beef in the jar is not enough for medical treatment, can you give me more time?" Boss Li said carefully.

"Pushing back and forth all day, do you think I, Guang Long, am begging for food?"

Guang Long kicked the stove over, the jar fell to the ground and shattered, meat soup flowed, and it was a mess.

Ordinary people were bullied by soul masters and couldn't resist at all. Boss Li said bitterly: "Guang Long, have you forgotten that Guang Biao was defeated by three students in front of everyone because of you? You still dare to collect protection fees!"

"You actually dare to mention this..."

Guang Long's eyes were fierce, just intending to teach Boss Li a lesson, when he suddenly saw Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer eating.

"Why are there two more kids here?"

PTSD broke out instantly. Guang Long hugged his arms and walked to the two:

"I'll ask you something! 【1

"Are you two students of the Eastsea Academy? Do you know a Soul Emperor whose martial soul is an ice-attribute longsword?"

"Get lost."

Xiang Xiang Naer's tone was icy; the Light Dragon was affecting her mood and had also wasted so much delicious braised beef in a pot. The Silver Dragon Spear was already primed and ready to strike!

The Light Dragon was furious. Having learned from the experience of being beaten up last time, he was smarter this time; he directly manifested his Iron-Armored Dragon martial soul!

His exposed skin turned iron-gray, and iron-gray scales grew out in raised patches on his neck. One white and one yellow soul ring rose up, and his level-27 soul power erupted!

"Zhao Xuanzhen, he is practically courting death," Xiang Xiang Naer said faintly.

"Mm, you keep eating, I'll handle it."

Zhao Xuanzhen stood up, flashing in front of the Light Dragon at near-teleportation speed. He clenched his right fist and delivered a standard step-forward parry-and-punch!

The moment they made contact, the Light Dragon felt as if he had suddenly been hit by a mecha. With brute force applied to his body, the Iron-Armored Dragon's thick dragon scales felt as brittle as paper. The flesh on his abdomen sank in, and all the organs inside his body vibrated and twisted!

"Boom—"

The Light Dragon's entire body flew into the air, a large mouthful of sour liquid surged up from his stomach, his ears rang loudly, his eyes were bloodshot, and the world seemed to be spinning. It wasn't until the back of his head hit the ground that he realized he had been punched until his martial soul disintegrated!

The power bestowed by the Dark-Gold Terrorclaw was evident. Zhao Xuanzhen recalled, "Who was it that said, beating people up without using a martial soul feels really great?"

"Audacious!"

A group of people rushed into the braised beef shop, their presence heavy and oppressive. The leaders were clearly two level-6 Soul Emperors!

"Iron-Armored Dragon Soul Master Guang Long, you committed violence against a core disciple of the Spirit Tower in the street. Your crimes are heinous!"

A pair of twin Soul Emperors, whose martial soul was a lightning-attribute flail. Guang Long, relying on his older brother, the mecha brigade captain Guang Biao, had previously had contact with some Spirit Tower personnel. He instantly recognized the flail brothers and said in shock:

"Spirit Tower Enforcement Captains!?

It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! I didn't attack your core disciple!"

Wicked people need wicked people to deal with them. The Spirit Tower enforcers had always believed in using violence to solve problems. They didn't listen to Guang Long's sophistry at all—an elbow strike to open the airway, and lightning to find your heartbeat!

The first strike hit the legs to prevent escape, the second strike hit the mouth to prevent begging for mercy, and the third strike hit the head to prevent resistance!

Guang Long took the three strikes without a sound—not because he was that resilient, but because he had passed out after the first strike!

"My lord, it's done!"

The flail brothers clicked their heels together and saluted Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer.

Three strikes in one second was not their limit; it was to let Zhao Xuanzhen see their attitude!

"The flail has force, the hand-raising has height, the fist-swinging has angle. Well done."

"Thank you for the praise, my lord!"

The flail brothers and the others exited the shop to guard in secret, while several enforcement team members dragged the unconscious Guang Long and the thugs away to bring them back to the Eastsea City Spirit Tower.

That night, Guang Long would verify the law of conservation of electricity, carrying the spirit of self-sacrifice—"If I don't go to hell, who will?"—and bravely launch a charge toward the Spirit Tower!

The minor episode concluded, and the owner was naturally full of gratitude, offering quite a few side dishes for free.

"Ding-dong—"

Zhao Xuanzhen's soul guidance communicator suddenly rang; the Phantom Brain Douluo had sent a message.

"Xuanzhen, I heard from Lady Tianfeng that you broke through to a level-3 Soul Venerable.

The mecha repair exam ended two days ago, and I gave you a letter. Go to the Tiandou City Blacksmith Association on my behalf, give the letter to a man named Mu Ye, and say hello to him for me.

If possible, it is best to get out of Lady Tianfeng's sight. She cares about you too much, and I am worried that a conflict will break out."

At the Spirit Tower headquarters, Phantom Brain Douluo Han Tianyi saw the word "Okay" in Zhao Xuanzhen's reply. He put away the soul guidance communicator, carried his hands behind his back, and looked levelly at the pitch-black sea of clouds outside the window:

"Mu Ye, this uncle can only help you this much. Whether the Benti Sect can seize the opportunity ultimately depends on yourself..."
