Chapter 2 - Martial Soul Awakening, Self-Generated Soul Rings

"Roar…"

Nan Xuanyu's scream was drowned out by a earth-shattering dragon's roar.

A Nine-Colored Giant Dragon seemed to burst from Nan Xuanyu's dantian, coiling upwards along his body.

At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into a giant dragon.

Dragon scales covered his entire body, his eyes became vertical slits, revealing a ferocious gaze.

His body radiated a brilliant nine-colored light.

A huge dragon head appeared above his head, roaring at the sky, its dragon威* (dragon's might) sweeping across the area.

The dragon's roar caused the awakening room, and even the entire Ancient Soul Beast Research Institute, to tremble violently.

"This is…"

The staff member stared at the situation of Nan Xuanyu in the awakening room, his eyes widening, revealing an expression of disbelief.

At this moment, Lan Xiao also rushed here, looking at Nan Xuanyu's Martial Soul with shock.

"Colored… Dragon Martial Soul?"

At this moment, both Lan Xiao and the staff member felt a strange sense of fear welling up in their hearts.

At the same time, their souls trembled involuntarily.

"Dragon Martial Soul, but what kind of dragon is this, why is it so terrifying?"

The staff member muttered, shocked.

He had never encountered a colored Dragon Martial Soul before.

"Come, child, try to retract it and test your Soul Power!"

After the dragon's might gradually subsided, the staff member handed over the Soul Power testing device.

His hands were trembling.

"No, we have a Soul Power testing device at home, I'll take him back to test!"

Lan Xiao quickly stopped him; this Dragon Martial Soul was definitely not simple.

His Innate Soul Power was probably very high as well.

He didn't want more people to know about Nan Xuanyu's situation for the time being.

"Okay, Director!"

The staff member nodded, his face filled with regret.

This kid's Innate Soul Power was definitely not low!

But, Lan Xiao was the director of the Ancient Soul Beast Research Institute. He couldn't test it, so he had to give up.

"Remember to keep this a secret, it's best to forget about this matter!"

After instructing his subordinate, Lan Xiao took Nan Xuanyu and walked out.

A while later, the two returned home.

He couldn't wait to give the Soul Power testing device to Nan Xuanyu.

"Son, hold the handles on both sides, and then, just like when you release your Martial Soul, mobilize that special presence within your body."

Nan Xuanyu nodded and followed Lan Xiao's instructions.

The next moment, the Soul Power testing device shook violently, and a beam of light shot straight out.

A white light column, two feet long, stood firm as a pillar, incredibly solid.

"Twenty… twenty levels…"

"Innate Soul Power… twenty levels!"

Nan Cheng and Lan Xiao exclaimed almost simultaneously, their eyes filled with shock.

The two looked at each other, and they saw the deep worry in each other's eyes.

Nan Xuanyu's Martial Soul was simply too exaggerated; not only was it an extremely powerful beast Martial Soul.

His Innate Soul Power had surprisingly reached a shocking twenty levels.

It had already surpassed the existence of top-tier Martial Souls.

What to do?

The higher-ups would probably notice.

Then, they could only tell the truth.

"Son, that's great, you're a genius! You feel it first, I'll talk to your mom for a moment."

With that, Lan Xiao patted Nan Xuanyu's head and then pulled his wife, Nan Cheng, into the room, closing the door.

"Ancestral Dragon Martial Soul, God-level Martial Soul, hmm, not bad!"

Nan Xuanyu glanced at his parents' room, the corners of his mouth turning up, muttering to himself.

"What do we do? What if the higher-ups find out, then…"

Nan Cheng's face revealed a look of worry.

"Don't worry, since we're the ones reporting it, aren't we the ones who get to decide?"

Nan Cheng's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of joy:

"So, he won't be taken away, and he can always be our son."

Lan Xiao smiled:

"That's right! The Martial Soul awakening happened in my research institute, and I've already instructed that employee to keep it a secret. He won't reveal it without my permission.

Innate Soul Power of twenty levels is definitely beyond top-tier Dragon Martial Souls. His future achievements will definitely be limitless.

Even if it's discovered later when he grows up, we can just say his Martial Soul mutated.

Nowadays, soul guide technology is developing rapidly, and Soul Masters are no longer as highly regarded.

If we're careful enough and don't let the higher-ups notice, he will always be our son."

Nan Cheng finally smiled as well:

"That's right! I only want my son. Everything else isn't that important."

The two took a deep breath and walked out of the room.

Lan Xiao came to Nan Xuanyu, squatted down, and said to him:

"Xuanyu, promise Dad something, okay?"

Nan Xuanyu nodded and looked at Lan Xiao. Lan Xiao said, "Don't tell anyone about the test results just now.

If someone asks you what your Soul Power level is, just say three levels, no, six levels is fine.

Starting tomorrow, Dad will teach you the basics of Soul Power cultivation."

Nan Xuanyu nodded; as a transmigrator, he naturally knew what his adoptive father was worried about.

Afterward, the family of three went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Nan Cheng was in charge of the cooking, Lan Xiao and Nan Xuanyu were helping out, and the family cooked together happily.

Then they ate together, their happiness index soaring.

At night, Nan Xuanyu went to sleep early, sleeping very, very soundly.

"Eh? Son, where did you get this ring?"

The next morning, as soon as Nan Xuanyu woke up, he heard Lan Xiao's exclamation.

"Hmm?"

Nan Xuanyu raised his hand, and sure enough, there was a ring on his finger.

It was no more than five millimeters wide, perfectly fitting his finger.

It was dark blue, looking very deep, and there were some fine patterns on it.

"It seems to have appeared by itself."

Nan Xuanyu said, trying to take it off, but he found that the ring seemed to have grown onto his finger and couldn't be removed.

"Appeared by itself?"

Lan Xiao looked puzzled, and when he looked closely, he suddenly felt a slight dizziness.

It was as if the ring was devouring his spirit.

He quickly turned his head away, terrified.

Lan Xiao quickly pulled open the curtains and carefully examined the window.

There were no signs of it being opened.

Everything seemed perfectly normal.

Lan Xiao had also seen Nan Xuanyu try to take off the ring but fail.

He reached out his hand, wanting to take the ring off to examine it.

However, the moment his finger touched the ring.

A mysterious force was released from the ring, suddenly repelling his hand.

Lan Xiao stepped back two steps before steadying himself.

A huge wave surged in his heart.

Where did this ring come from?

He couldn't touch it himself, and it couldn't be taken off.

His son was extraordinary.

What should he do?

After that, he went to Nan Cheng to express his concerns.

Ten minutes later, in the living room.

"What do we do?"

Nan Cheng looked worried, looking at her husband.

Lan Xiao smiled wryly:

"I don't know what to do either; all we can do is take it one step at a time.

Let's observe for a while, and if it really doesn't work, we can only report it.

I'm just worried that the changes happening to him will harm him!"

"No, we can't report it."

Nan Cheng said with some fear:

"If we report it, they will definitely take Xuanyu away; no, absolutely not!"

Lan Xiao sighed, and rubbed his wife's head:

"Let's wait and see, don't worry too much, at least for now, Xuanyu hasn't shown any discomfort!"

"Mom and Dad, it's okay, don't worry!"

The two's conversation was overheard by Nan Xuanyu.

"Son, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

Nan Cheng held her son in her arms, asking with concern!

"I don't feel uncomfortable, Mom and Dad, even if I'm taken away, I won't have any problems, and I will always be your son."

Hearing this, Nan Cheng's eyes immediately welled up with tears.

The couple was overjoyed.

Nan Xuanyu sat on his mother's lap, and a trace of ferocity flashed in his eyes. Whoever dared to touch him, kill!

After that, Lan Xiao began to teach Nan Xuanyu how to cultivate.

He taught him the Mysterious Heaven Skill.

With the Mysterious Heaven Skill cultivation, Soul Power could be accumulated.

Lan Xiao began to explain the theory to Nan Xuanyu, and after explaining, he took Nan Xuanyu to the training room:

"Son, release your Martial Soul, you must release it often in the future, feel it, observe it, and only then will you be able to control it freely."

Nan Xuanyu nodded, and the next moment, accompanied by a nine-colored light, it radiated from him.

The Nine-Colored Giant Dragon coiled upwards, instantly attaching to him.

Two purple Soul Rings then rose from his feet.

Seeing the two Soul Rings, Lan Xiao's eyes were filled with an incredible shock.

"You… how did you get these two thousand-year Soul Rings?"

Nan Xuanyu had Soul Rings just for sleeping.

What did this mean?
