Chapter 531: Martial Soul Phenomenon Appears

Inside Lin Chen's dantian.

The ocean of spiritual sense surged, and within those waves, a blue moon slowly rose.

However, the moon did not rise by its own power; beneath it, strands of Martial Way Will acted like branches, supporting the moon as it ascended.

If the moon were likened to the fruit of a flower or plant, then these Martial Way Wills were the stems, the branches, and the leaves...

Palms, fists, legs...

Sabers, spears, swords, axes...

Strands of Martial Way Will, like the branches of plants and trees, supported the moon as it rose, bearing a striking resemblance to the plant meridian diagram of the "Jiang Taiyi Qingling Record."

Hands and legs were the main stems; the basic palm techniques, fist techniques, leg techniques, and movement techniques... these were the branches on the main stems, while the sabers, spears, swords, and axes were the leaves on those branches.

The stems climbed, supporting the moon as it rose.

But the existence of the branches and leaves prevented the stems from being a lone tree, achieving an ultimate balance, growing like true vegetation, eventually becoming a towering tree.

Time passed bit by bit. When the moon was once again sent into that starry sky, at this moment, nine star clouds followed behind the moon, as if serving the moon as their master.

The star clouds rotated, the moon's clear light spilled down, and the waves below rolled.

This was the true "Moon Rising Over the Sea."

And it was at this moment that Lin Chen's internal spiritual sense completed one "Moon Rising Over the Sea." At this moment, on his body surface and behind his back, a moon hung high within the star clouds, its clear light enveloping a ten-zhang radius around Lin Chen.

"Could this be the legendary Martial Way Phenomenon?"

When Luo Luo Changhe discovered that his spiritual sense could not intrude within ten zhang of Lin Chen, a sentence recorded by a Wanxiang Realm senior of the sect suddenly flashed in his mind.

The strongest of the Martial Way spiritual sense... spiritual sense can transform into a Martial Soul.

A Martial Soul is a born martial artist!

What is a Martial Soul? It is when one's spiritual sense is in harmony with the Martial Way.

As the sect with the deepest research into spiritual sense in the entire Yan Imperial Dynasty, the Qianji Sect's study of the spiritual sense path far exceeded any other sect.

The Qianji Sect divided a martial artist's spiritual sense into two types: normal and heterodox.

Heterodox spiritual sense was further divided into two types: innate and acquired.

Those with innate heterodox spiritual sense often died in their youth.

Acquired heterodox spiritual sense was caused by contact with certain heavenly treasures that could induce spiritual sense mutation, or by other opportunities.

A Martial Soul was one type of acquired heterodox spiritual sense, and an extremely rare one at that.

Even the Qianji Sect found it difficult to transform a disciple's spiritual sense into a Martial Soul; this was not something that could be controlled by human effort.

"Even for a Martial Soul, it should only slowly form after the Sixth Stage of the Innate Realm, and only after reaching the Wanxiang Realm would there be a chance for a Martial Soul Phenomenon to be born. This Lin Chen is only at the Third Stage of the Innate Realm; not only does he possess a Martial Soul, but he has also condensed a phenomenon?"

Luo Luo Changhe could be certain that the star-cloud moon behind Lin Chen was a Martial Soul Phenomenon. Otherwise, no matter how much potential Lin Chen had, it would be impossible for him to hinder the spiritual sense of a Wanxiang Realm powerhouse like himself from approaching.

With a phenomenon appearing, he had gained the recognition of heaven and earth!

At this moment, Lin Chen had fallen into a profound state.

Within this ten-zhang radius, he was the true king.

The innate liquid within his body flowed endlessly, countless Martial Way Wills accompanied his body, and every aspect of his Martial Way had achieved a terrifying leap.

If he were to face that unbridled saber-wielder in the Heaven-Reaching Tower again, Lin Chen was confident he could block the other's saber.

Within ten zhang, where the moon's clear light shone, he was an invincible existence.

"Panel!"

After a long time, Lin Chen whispered, and the panel appeared before him.

【Host: Lin Chen】

【Realm: Innate Third Stage】

【Innate Technique: Immortal Scripture】 (Can Evolve)

【Spiritual Sense: Level 10】

【Comprehension: Level 9】

【Immortal Body: Third Layer】

【Martial Soul Phenomenon: Moon Rising Over the Sea (Rudimentary Form)】

Seeing the words 【Rudimentary Form】, Lin Chen's eyes lit up. This meant his Martial Soul Phenomenon could still be upgraded, and its power could still increase.

As for how to upgrade the Martial Soul Phenomenon, Lin Chen was not worried. When an upgradeable situation was encountered, 【Race Against Time】 would give him a hint.

This adventure was well worth it for him.

Forcibly suppressing the urge to enter the Heaven-Reaching Tower for a challenge, Lin Chen calmed his emotions. The moon behind him hid into the star-cloud vortex, and then disappeared along with the star-cloud vortex.

Without the star-cloud vortex phenomenon, the main hall returned to its original appearance.

An hour had not yet passed, and the two scrolls in front of Lin Chen were still there.

"I'll just stay in this main hall for the full hour to avoid causing unnecessary trouble."

Lin Chen muttered. If word got out that he had finished comprehending the "Nine-Turn Hunyuan Scripture" and the "Jiang Taiyi Qingling Record" in less than an hour, it would likely cause a stir. One should hide one's light when necessary.

Outside the main hall.

Gu Gu Yunfeng was still waiting there. When he saw his Martial Uncle appear, he quickly bowed respectfully, "Martial Uncle Luo."

"After that Xiao Yan comes out, just let him leave."

"Just let him leave?"

Gu Gu Yunfeng was stunned, but immediately reacted and nodded, "This nephew understands, but..."

Luo Luo Changhe knew what his nephew's "but..." meant and said directly, "That kid has already comprehended the 'Nine-Turn Hunyuan Scripture' and the 'Jiang Taiyi Qingling Record'."

Hearing his Martial Uncle's answer, Gu Gu Yunfeng's pupils shrank. Xiao Yan had actually succeeded in comprehending them. ===== CHAPTER 532 =====
