Douluo Dalu: Chengfeng Yujian

In the eastern part of Douluo Continent, there are endless mountains.

Almost every big tree blocks out the sky and the sun, and even in the rare plain areas, there are gravel and dead grass everywhere.

Coupled with year-round sunshine and harsh weather, the east of the mainland is collectively known as the "Eastern Wasteland".

There is a village in the Eastern Wasteland called Panshi.

There are only about a hundred villagers in Panshi Village, and they have relied on hunting and planting a plant called green wheat to survive for generations.

In this world where martial arts are respected, the people in Panshi Village are as poor as ants under the rubble.

There are two soul masters in Panshi Village, one is the old village chief and the other is the captain of the hunting team, but they are only at the level of great soul masters.

In spring, the soft wind in the early morning mixed with the fragrance of flowers makes people feel comfortable.

At the entrance of Panshi Village, seven or eight burly men stood under the scorching sun. They held rusty long knives and talked and laughed with each other.

The leader is a dark-skinned bald man named Li Ye. He is one of the only two soul masters in Panshi Village, the captain of the hunting team, and a twenty-third level great soul master, Wuhun Black Dog.

"Why aren't you here, little carp?" Li Ye touched his shiny head with his rough hands and muttered.

"I'm probably still lying in bed."

"Haha, this kid likes to sleep in."

Several other big men laughed a few words on the side, and the atmosphere was very comfortable.

Just as he was talking, a thin young man swayed over with seven or eight large kettles on his shoulders.

The boy was six or seven years old, with messy broken hair, a childish face, and a thin body that seemed to be dragged down by several kettles at any time.

"Uncle, second uncle, third uncle, seventh uncle, eighth uncle, here I come." The young man put down the kettle, bent over and panted.

Seeing this, the big man laughed and joked, "I'm talking about a little carp. You'll be so tired after just a few bottles of water."

Hearing this, the young man retorted angrily, "Your back hurts when you stand and talk. When you were your age, you still wet the bed."

"Hahaha"

Several big men were amused by the young man and "bullied" him for a while. Then they picked up the kettles and set off to hunt.

The young man patted the dust on his body, watched the big men go away, and said to himself with a smile, "Uncles, come back safely."

The boy's real name is Li Yu, and because it sounds the same as "carp", the villagers call him Little Carp.

When Li Yu was born, his mother died in childbirth. When he was three years old, his father died accidentally while out hunting. He was helpless and relied on the help of the villagers to avoid starving to death.

In the eyes of adults, Li Yu is a well-behaved and sensible child, and in the eyes of his peers, he is a generous brother.

There is a wooden house eight hundred steps back from the entrance of the village. This is Li Yu's home.

The decoration at home was very simple. Li Yu opened the pot, filled a bowl of rice porridge and sat on the threshold, sipping the porridge along the mouth of the bowl.

A stooped old man walked toward him step by step, leaning on a cane. His wrinkled skin and dry white hair made his whole body full of twilight.

"Grandpa the village chief."

Seeing the old man, Li Yu put down his bowl and chopsticks and stepped forward to help him.

"Haha, little carp, have you forgotten what day it is today?" Village chief Li Ding touched Li Yu's head lovingly.

"Oh, by the way, today is the day when the martial soul awakens."

"I thought you forgot. Let's go with grandpa."

Hearing this, Li Yu touched his belly and said seriously, "Well, Grandpa Village Chief, I haven't had breakfast yet."

"Haha, eat on the way. I brought you two eggs. Let's go find Xiao Heizi. This year, you two will be the only ones in the village to perform the spirit awakening ceremony. I'm really looking forward to it."

An old man and a young man walked 800 meters for less than half an hour and came to another wooden house, where they brought a young man named Li Hei with them.

The three of them walked another eight hundred meters and came to a big banyan tree behind the village.

It was noon, and the sunshine in the Eastern Wasteland was extremely harsh even in spring.

Li Ding put down his crutch and took out six small blue-black stones from his arms. Under the movement of his soul power, the black stones fell lightly to the ground.

Then he took out a fist-sized crystal ball and used his soul power to make it float in the air.

"Xiao Yu, Xiao Hei, which one of you will awaken the martial soul first?" Li Ding asked softly.

"I'll come first."

The thin, dark-skinned young man stood up with a serious expression.

"Haha, okay." Li Ding laughed twice, stroked his long beard, and said, "Xiao Hei, stand in the middle of the black stone."

As Li Hei's feet landed, the six black stones emitted a blue light. The rays of light connected, and the six black stones formed a six-pointed star array.

"Martial spirit Aries, possessed" Li Ding shouted, releasing his martial spirit.

Two soul rings, one white and one yellow, moved gently, two horns grew out of his head, his muscles swelled, and his face became somewhat like a goat.

The old twilight aura faded away and was replaced by brave tension.

Li Yu on the side opened his mouth and said to himself, "Is this the village chief's grandfather's martial spirit? Then what is my martial spirit? Can I become a soul master?"

"Relax little Heizi, close your eyes, feel the power in your body, and slowly release it."

Li Ding frowned, and the soul power in his body was continuously transported into the six-pointed star array.

Then I saw Li Hei slowly closing his eyes. After about five or six minutes, his right hand slowly raised.

Then little bits of light floated out in his palm, and finally the light condensed to form a black mouse.

"Beast martial soul, Black Rat." Li Ding smiled and said, "Generally, beast martial souls have soul power and can become soul masters. Come on, put your hand on the crystal ball and test your soul power level."

Li Hei was a little excited and touched the crystal ball in front of him with his trembling hands.

Then, the crystal ball emits a faint blue light and gradually becomes brighter.

After a while, the crystal ball gradually stopped.

"Martial Spirit Black Rat, fifth level soul power, it seems that our Panshi Village has a little genius."

Li Ding smiled happily. This result was really unexpected. You must know that no young man in Panshi Village has awakened to become a soul master in more than ten years.

"Xiao Yu'er, I can become a distinguished soul master" Li Hei said to Li Yu extremely excitedly.

"Congratulations." Li Yu smiled sincerely.

"Grandpa village chief, Xiao Yu'er, I'm going to tell my parents right now."

"Go."

Li Yu smiled and waved, watching Li Hei go away, and then turned his attention to the six-pointed star formation beside him.

The scorching sun is shining brightly, with scattered light spots on the ground, and a breeze brings coolness.

An old man and a young man looked at each other quietly under the shade of a tree. After a while, Li Ding finally said, "Xiao Yu'er, are you ready?"

"Grandpa Village Chief, I'm ready to start the awakening ceremony."

Li Yu clenched his fists and nodded heavily.

Under the sky in the eastern part of the Douluo Continent, a young man stepped into the six-pointed star array where the martial soul was awakened with firm eyes.

This moment is the beginning of a myth
