Chapter 282 The Holy Son of Xuanming
After Bei Bei recognized Xu Sanshi on the stage, many others also recognized him, including Xiao Hongchen, who was facing him on the stage.
The characteristics of the Xuanwu Shield are still quite obvious. Even though Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu has been completely transformed due to the mutation of the evil martial soul, it still retains the most basic Xuanwu foundation.
There are very few Xuanwu lineages on the Douluo Continent, let alone bloodlines strong enough to grant Soul Masters a talent domain. In this era, the only person who possesses such a strong Xuanwu bloodline is Xu Sanshi.
It's not impossible that some reclusive individuals might suddenly emerge, but there aren't that many hidden masters in the Douluo Continent. Not everyone is like the disciples of the Haotian Sect, hiding in their caves for thousands of years before finally emerging to pupate.
Seeing that Xiao Hongchen across from him seemed to recognize his identity, Xu Sanshi also lifted his hood, revealing his face hidden under his black robe.
It was a pale face devoid of any color, the person was so thin that he looked like a skull, his brows and eyes were filled with a thick gloom and ferocity, his eyes were bloodshot, and his scarlet pupils were like those of a mindless beast, only numbness and coldness after killing countless people remained.
In the original work, Xu Sanshi's character is basically a comedian. Although his temperament is very cheeky because of his lack of morals, his appearance is very masculine and imposing.
Five years ago, Xu Sanshi was just like that. If he didn't have a mouth, everyone would call him a handsome young man.
But now, he can only be described as neither human nor ghost.
This was the price he paid for his rapid improvement in cultivation.
After meeting Ye Xishui, he, who was already extremely extreme, was easily led into the abyss of darkness by this Limit Douluo evil soul master.
It is incredibly difficult for an evil spirit master to return to normal, but for a normal spirit master to fall into evil spirit mastery, it is only a matter of a single thought.
Tormented by his obsession, Xu Sanshi only wants to do two things: first, to revive Jiang Nannan, and second, to take revenge by personally killing Lin Nuo, the enemy who stole his lover.
Both of these things require considerable strength.
Under Ye Xishui's patient guidance, Xu Sanshi used the Nine-Turn Dead Wife Gu to turn Jiang Nannan into a soul ring, fully awakening the Xuanwu bloodline within him. The blood-red snake wrapped around his shield is Jiang Nannan's soul imprisoned in his Xuanwu Shield.
After fully awakening his Xuanwu bloodline, Xu Sanshi also possessed the complete Xuanwu Domain.
In Ye Xishui's opinion, Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu Domain was simply too awesome. He was a born evil soul master. It was only because the Holy Spirit Cult was gone that Xu Sanshi was the Holy Spirit Cult's chosen one.
Why do I say that?
The answer is simple.
After Xu Sanshi unleashed the Xuanwu Domain, a massive devouring field was formed within its range. No matter what entered his domain, it would eventually be swallowed up by the heavy black water and assimilated into a part of his domain.
The original Xuanwu Domain definitely didn't have this effect. In the original story, when Xu Sanshi used the Xuanwu Domain after his Xuanwu Awakening, he only amplified himself or transformed himself into heavy water to reduce and avoid enemy attacks.
This is an ability he only possesses after he turns to the dark side.
What do evil spirit masters value most?
Utilization rate!
The more one eats, the faster one digests, and the higher the nutrient conversion rate, the stronger one's talent in the realm of evil spirit masters.
This is also the most important reason why Tang Ya was able to become the Blue Silver Saintess. The Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is weak, and even the Blue Silver King Martial Soul is only considered to be in the middle to lower range among top-level Martial Souls. The Holy Spirit Cult has many Martial Souls that are stronger than Tang Ya's Dark Blue Silver King Martial Soul.
However, Tang Ya's innate Devouring talent was being utilized too frequently.
Take the brain-eating beast Jili from the original work as an example. His brain-eating beast spirit can only grow by eating brains, and the other parts are of little use to him. Tang Ya, on the other hand, can eat a small piece of bread cleanly, inside and out.
Two evil spirit masters, one who can only consume brains and the other who can digest them entirely, would benefit more from a thousand small loaves of bread placed in front of them, and would their growth be greater?
Without a doubt, it's Tang Ya.
This is the reason why she became the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult despite having a weak martial spirit.
Now, Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu Domain has an even stronger digestive ability than Tang Ya's. Tang Ya would leave some crumbs when she ate small bread, but once Xu Sanshi activates his Xuanwu Domain, he doesn't care about anything else, just talk to my big stomach.
It can be said that, apart from Xuanzi, it would be difficult to find a more talented evil spirit master than the corrupted Xu Sanshi during the entire Peerless Tang Sect era.
Ye Xishui met Xu Sanshi about two years ago, which means that Xu Sanshi had wasted at least three years of cultivation time after the last competition. He spent three years traveling through mountains and rivers to find a way to revive Jiang Nannan. He was so exhausted that his soul power level even regressed instead of progressing.
At that time, he was probably barely maintaining his fourth-ring cultivation level. The fact that his level hadn't dropped to Soul Master was already a testament to the strength of his martial soul.
In just two short years, Xu Sanshi went from a half-dead Soul Master to a Soul Saint with three purple and four black Soul Rings.
The number of small loaves of bread that died at his hands must have been at least five figures; otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to bring him such a significant improvement.
The side effects are also obvious. The person is already skin and bones, and the life force in the body must have been greatly consumed by burning. The soul power and combat power are indeed unprecedentedly strong, but the lifespan and life force must be in a state of extreme deficiency.
He has at least thirty years left to live, which would be a lot.
Does Xu Sanshi care?
He didn't care; all he wanted was revenge, all he wanted was to bring his Jiang Nannan back to life.
"Where is Lin Nuo?" Xu Sanshi's voice was hoarse, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Xiao Hongchen. "Tell me where he is. I, Xu Sanshi, have come to collect a debt from him."
He originally didn't want to make a move. Without seeing Lin Nuo, he had no interest in even trying. But if he didn't make a move, the Douling team would be eliminated by the Riyue team with a score of 0:2. He wouldn't even have the chance to make a move, let alone any interest.
But it doesn't matter, I'll just make my move.
If he remembered correctly, the white-haired jailer in front of him had a very good relationship with Lin Nuo. If he killed this white-haired jailer, Lin Nuo would also have to come out and die, right?
Before Xiao Hongchen could reply, Xu Sanshi muttered to himself, "I've been waiting for him throughout the entire tournament, and he still hasn't made a move. Is he afraid of me? It's fine, if he doesn't want to come out, he doesn't want to come out. I'll kill you, and I don't believe he can keep hiding!"
After speaking, Xu Sanshi's eyes turned even redder, and the mention of the word "kill" unleashed the murderous intent within him once more.
It just goes to show that this fits the personality of an evil spirit master; they seem to have some mental issues.
"Go to hell!"
