Chapter 131 Soul Power Communication
Thinking of the follow-up plan, Lin Yuan's gaze involuntarily turned to Qing Lin.

However, she was shaky and her face showed signs of fatigue. After the joy of successfully practicing the secret method, she was overwhelmed by the fatigue and weakness caused by the massive consumption of soul power.

Seeing this, Lin Yuan hurriedly supported her. At the same time, he released his soul power and probed into Qing Lin's body to check her condition.

After a moment, his brows relaxed slightly and he breathed a sigh of relief. "It seems that it was caused by excessive consumption of soul power. No wonder, using multiple soul secrets at the same time and practicing the soul-solidifying clothes, this consumption..."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan took out a fist-sized box from his ring and handed it to Qing Lin. The box was all black, and the surface of the box was covered with mysterious runes, like a seal.

"Young Master, what is this?" Qing Lin took the black box and asked weakly with some doubt.

Lin Yuan looked at Qing Lin and chuckled, "A little gadget that replenishes consumed soul power. Qing'er, open it."

Upon hearing this, Qinglin opened the box and saw three small balls of light in the box, emitting a soft glow.

Under the illumination of this soft light, Qing Lin vaguely felt that his spirit and soul, which were somewhat exhausted from using shadow clones and practicing such secret techniques as the Soul Solidifying Robe, felt a little more relaxed.

At this moment, Lin Yuan moved his fingers slightly, and a small ball of light flew out and landed on his fingertips.

Afterwards, he placed the ball of light close to Qing Lin's brow and said calmly: "Qing'er, don't resist, try to absorb it."

"Yes, sir." Qing Lin heard this and followed Lin Yuan's instructions, closing her eyes and absorbing the light. A sense of comfort filled her soul. Soon, she found that her soul exhaustion and fatigue caused by practicing all day had almost recovered.

"How do you feel? Do you feel anything unusual?" Lin Yuan asked.

Qing Lin opened his eyes, showing an excited look, and said happily: "Sir, this is amazing, the soul power has recovered in an instant."

"Well, that's good." Lin Yuan nodded, smiled with satisfaction, and said: "Qing'er, if you are too tired when practicing soul secrets these days, use this to recover."

"Yes, sir." Qing Lin looked at the two balls of light in the box and said confidently, "With this, I will be able to fully cultivate successfully soon."

Lin Yuan did not say anything pretentious like "don't worry". The sooner Qing Lin completes his training, the more prepared he will be.

Therefore, he just stroked Qinglin's hair gently and said in a deep voice: "Qing'er, thank you for your hard work during this period."

Qing Lin shook his head, looked into Lin Yuan's eyes, and said seriously: "Sir, don't say that. Being able to help you is what makes me happiest."

Not long after, Qing Lin recovered his soul power and continued to practice the Soul-Fixing Spirit Clothes.

After Lin Yuan returned to his room, he took out a black box from his ring, the same one he gave to Qing Lin.

This black box was made by Lin Yuan based on the soul bag of the Soul Palace, combined with some special materials and his own sealing techniques. It can store highly concentrated soul power.

He opened the box and looked at the balls of light in it, his eyes flashing with deep thought.

Soon, a sigh sounded faintly in the room.

"Sure enough, extracting the original soul energy and creating the soul origin is not that simple. This method must be very advanced knowledge in the Soul Palace."

The original soul energy, also known as the original soul power, is captured by the Soul Palace across the continent in order to extract the original soul energy from their bodies to create the soul origin. For practitioners, absorbing the soul origin can enhance the soul power and break through the soul realm.

After Lin Yuan captured the Soul Palace's soul messengers, he tortured them many times, hoping to gain relevant knowledge from them.

However, these soul masters have no idea about this. They don’t even know what the original soul energy and the origin of the soul are.

However, although they themselves did not know it, the Soul Palace secret techniques they practiced contained some related things.

Many of the Soul Palace's secret techniques rely on captured souls. For example, devouring other people's souls to temporarily increase strength is a way to convert other people's soul power into one's own power, and the process inevitably involves some underlying transformation.

After analyzing the not-so-complicated secret technique contributed to him by the soul messengers, Lin Yuan, combined with his own attainments in soul research, basically figured out this intermediate process.

Lin Yuan himself called this middle part the "soul power" transformation. That is, many of the Soul Palace's secrets are to forcibly transform other people's souls into "soul power" first, and then use this "soul power" to perform many magical secrets.

Lin Yuan guessed that the method of transforming a person's soul into 'soul power' was a degraded version of extracting the original soul energy to create the soul's origin.

With Lin Yuan's seventh-grade soul power and his achievements in soul research, and the souls of the strong men he killed in the Black Horn Region, it didn't take him long to master these secret techniques. Naturally, he also mastered the means of forcibly converting other people's souls into "soul power".

However, even after Lin Yuan used the Fallen Heart Flame to remove the impurities, the "Soul Power" could not achieve a breakthrough in one's soul power like the origin of the soul.

Therefore, Lin Yuan could only settle for the second best and combine the method of transforming 'soul power' with alchemy. Using 'soul power' and other medicinal materials as raw materials, he created a kind of elixir that was not really an elixir - Yuanhun Dan.

The balls of light placed in the black box that he gave to Qinglin were exactly the three Yuanhun Pills.

Yuanhun Pill can be considered as a very practical "pill". Although it cannot enhance soul power, it is extremely effective in restoring depleted soul power and healing soul injuries. It is even much better than Yanghun Saliva.

"The secret techniques in the hands of the Soul Envoy are only relatively basic. To obtain the advanced methods of utilizing the 'power of the soul', it seems that we can only rely on the guardians for now."

Thinking of the Soul Palace's secret methods of temporarily improving strength, Lin Yuan couldn't help but think of his own two secret methods, and he had some fantasies in his mind.

"According to my assumptions and deductions, the three treasures of the human body - essence, energy and spirit - should be able to support the operation of the three secret methods to temporarily increase strength."

"At present, among my secret techniques, the Blood Element Transformation, which represents the essence of the Three Treasures, and the Qi Element Transformation, which represents the Qi of the Three Treasures, can both be run simultaneously."

"Next, if we can catch a big fish at the guardian level and get from them a more advanced secret method of using the soul power of the Soul Palace to temporarily increase strength, then perhaps we can complete the envisioned secret method of representing the Three Treasures God - the Divine Yuan Transformation."

“When the time comes, my spirit, energy and soul will all transform at the same time, and my true combat power will be able to reach a higher level.”

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan's eyes could not help but show a little more expectation, "Guardian Wu, Guardian Wu, please quickly complete the mission of the Xiao family, and then come to my bowl. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Also, although it's a bit wishful thinking, it would be even better if you had a way to extract the original soul energy to create the soul origin."

Lin Yuan withdrew his thoughts, studied the Yuanhun Pill again for a while, closed the box, and put it into his storage ring.

"Tomorrow, I will contact my friend Yunshan, update him on the situation, and then make a follow-up plan."

Afterwards, Lin Yuan sat cross-legged and began today's practice.

The next day, on a cloud peak of the Yunlan Sect.

Nalan Yanran, dressed in a moon-colored robe, sat cross-legged on a piece of blue stone, with her hands forming the seals of cultivation.

The surging energy in her body continuously poured into the Dou Jing, and after receiving this huge amount of energy, the latter actually began to slowly grow in size.

"Ding" At a certain moment, a faint humming sound quietly sounded in Nalan Yanran's body.

As this soft moan sounded, her aura suddenly increased a lot.

At this time, sitting cross-legged on the bluestone, Nalan Yanran's delicate face was like a piece of warm jade, emitting a faint light, which slowly faded away after a while. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then suddenly opened, a light blue brilliance flashed by, and then quickly disappeared.

Nalan Yanran sensed her own condition, and a hint of pride flashed in her cold eyes.

"A four-star Grand Master." She clenched her fists, thinking of the hard training over the past year, the upcoming three-year agreement, and that angry look. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Xiao Yan, even if you recover your past talent, what does it matter? How can you match the cultivation level of this four-star great fighting master?"

At this moment, an indifferent voice came from not far away.

"Four-star Grandmaster, not bad."

Upon hearing the voice, Nalan Yanran immediately stood up and looked in awe at Yunshan, who was standing not far away with his hands behind his back as if observing the sea of ​​clouds, and bowed respectfully.

"Yanran thanks Master for protecting Yanran."

Over the past year or so, she has been practicing with Yunshan, and her heart is filled with awe for him.

Yunshan and Yunyun had completely different styles, and the severity of their teachings was even more different. Over the past year, her training intensity had increased by 50% compared to when Yunyun was teaching her, and she hadn't even been home many times.

Yunshan did not turn around, but continued to look at the sea of ​​clouds in front of him, and said calmly: "There is less than half a month left before the three-year agreement. It is meaningless to practice hard. Yanran, you should go down the mountain, adjust yourself, and face this battle in the best condition."

"Yes, Master! Yanran will live up to your expectations and teachings." Nalan Yanran said in a deep voice.

After a year of getting along, Yunshan's majesty has penetrated into her heart. Although she missed Yunyun very much, she didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Yunshan, nor did she dare to mention Yunyun's affairs.

"That's good." Yunshan's indifferent voice sounded. Immediately, his hands behind his back moved slightly.

Before Nalan Yanran could react, a strong wind suddenly arose above the cloud peak, and a whirlwind formed a wall that swept Nalan Yanran down the mountain in a few moments.

"Is this Dou Zong?"

Nalan Yanran looked at the top of the mountain in awe, cut off the pride in her heart, and walked towards the alchemy hall.

In the alchemy hall, Gu He was explaining matters related to the alchemy meeting to his disciple Liu Ling. Seeing Nalan Yanran coming, he briefly explained the rest of the matters and waved to Nalan Yanran who was standing not far away.

Seeing this, Nalan Yanran walked up to him, bowed, and said softly, "Uncle Gu He."

Gu He looked at Nalan Yanran, nodded, and said with satisfaction: "Yanran, very good, you are already a four-star Grand Master. It seems that you have completed all the homework assigned by the old sect master."

Nalan Yanran nodded and informed Yunshan of the arrangements.

Gu Hearing this, he pondered for a moment, nodded slightly and said: "The way of cultivation is to relax and tense up. You have been too tense in the past year. It's time to relax and adjust your state."

"It just so happens that the Jia Ma Empire's Alchemist Conference is about to begin. Yanran, you and Liu Ling should go and take a look."

Liu Ling, who was standing by, heard this and a hint of ecstasy flashed in her eyes. She quickly said, "Yanran, come with me to take a look. This conference only takes place once every eight years and is extremely rare."

Gu He, who was standing by, looked at his silly disciple's performance with a helpless look in his eyes. "If he goes down the mountain with Yan Ran, this kid might forget what I told him to do - to have contact with the rock owl that is rumored to have strange fire."

Nalan Yanran thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, I also want to go home."

Deep inside the Mittel family's mansion, Lin Yuan gently turned his head and nodded slightly to Qing Lin who was silent beside him.

Qinglin understood instantly, nodded, and communicated with the purple jade-scaled snake that Lin Yuan had given to Yunshan, and initiated a communication request on the Sky Dome Network.

At this time, Yunshan, who was watching the sea of ​​clouds on Yunfeng of Yunlan Sect, suddenly felt the movement in the wide sleeves. Suddenly, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes, and he thought to himself: "This movement is from him. After a year, it seems that he has finally come in person."

Yunshan quickly recalled the communication notebook that he had already memorized. He took a deep breath and began to stimulate the purple jade snake on his wrist according to the code in the communication notebook. He confirmed the communication request according to the procedure.

In this way, with the help of Qinglin's Sky Network, a long-lost, secret communication between Lin Yuan and Yunshan, who were far away from each other, began again.

"Are you under the surveillance of Guardian Wu now?" Lin Yuan asked first.

"Not here." Yunshan answered concisely.

"Is he in the Yunlan Sect?"

"No."

“Are you able to have a long information exchange?”

"can."

"Long time no see, Sect Master Yun." Lin Yuan greeted.

"Long time no see, my good alchemist friend." Yunshan responded in the same way.

"Next, let's get straight to the point. Let's exchange information first, and then discuss the next plan. Next, I will tell you four pieces of information I have investigated." Lin Yuan said.

"Yes, go ahead." Yunshan said.

"First, the preparations to remove the soul restrictions on your soul body are ready. It will only take half an hour to implement it."

"That's great. Thank you, Master Dan, for your concern. Yunshan is very grateful." Yunshan said sincerely.

"Master Yun, you are too polite. There is more important information coming up. Second, Yan Xiao is Xiao Yan, the young man who made a three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran."

"It's indeed him." Yunshan nodded slightly. He had some guesses when he heard the name Yanxiao.

"And the third point I am going to talk about is something you may not know yet. Master Xiao Yan was once the continent's number one alchemist, Medicine Master. Currently, he is by Xiao Yan's side in the form of a soul." There was a hint of solemnity in Lin Yuan's words.

"Medicine Venerable? How is that possible? According to rumors, he had already been..." Yunshan asked in confusion. The Yunlan Sect would also send people to gather information on the mainland. The death of Medicine Venerable caused quite a stir, and even the people he sent out had heard the news.

"The rumor is wrong. According to the information I have obtained, Master Yao is not dead, he just lost his physical body. His best friend, Master Feng, has been looking for his whereabouts. And the target that you told me in the message that Guardian Wu invited you to deal with during the three-year agreement is very likely him." Lin Yuan continued.

"What? This..." Yunshan's face suddenly changed. If he followed the guardian Wu to deal with such a big shot, he would make an enemy of Yunlan Sect and such a big shot. If he did, if the slightest news of this matter leaked out, it would be a disaster for Yunlan Sect.

"Finally, there is one more important piece of information. As far as I know, a Dou Sheng-level figure has placed his daughter in the Xiao family for foster care, and that girl has a very good relationship with Xiao Yan." Lin Yuan continued to release information.

"That girl named Xiao Xun'er is the daughter of the Dou Sheng? This..." Yunshan was shocked again, and subconsciously thought of the strange girl in Ge Ye's report. Although he thought highly of her, he did not expect her to be so powerful.

"This is absolutely true. That Douluo Saint has an old relationship with the ancestors of the Xiao family, and he is also an absolute powerhouse among the Douluo Saints." Lin Yuan affirmed.

Yunshan was silent for a long time. Although he had expectations, the development of things still exceeded his imagination.

"The Imperial Clan, the Soul Palace, the Fighting Saint, the Fighting Saint's daughter, and the continent's number one alchemist." Yunshan couldn't help but sigh, "There are so many beings who can easily destroy my Yunlan Sect. How can my sect be associated with them at the same time?"

Thinking of all these troublesome things, Yunshan's eyes couldn't help but show a few bloodshot lines of anger.

"Soul Palace, Guardian Wu...it's all your fault."

　Essence, energy and spirit, three-element transformation, are my ideas that I had long ago. So, when the two secret methods were being developed in parallel, I specifically changed the name of the diffracted version of Blood God Transformation to Blood Element Transformation. If it succeeds later, should this comprehensive secret method be called Three-element Transformation, Extreme Element Transformation, or Extreme Sublimation?
