1: Martial Soul Wedding Dress Ghost Emperor

"Xiao Wen, do you want to live off a woman?"

Inside a quiet courtyard in Spirit City, a voice drifted in from the doorway.

Immediately after, a woman draped in a long red robe walked into the room with long strides.

The black leather outfit beneath her robe accentuated her hot figure to the fullest.

With a pounce, she pulled the boy in the room into her arms and began to ruffle him up affectionately.

"Aunt Ye, my teeth are still growing. If they don't grow well later, ask me then!"

The boy was about six years old, with a tender face and a pair of strange, dark-red pupils.

The boy's name was Su Wen. Six years ago, he had been hit by a truck and ended up in Douluo Continent.

He became the orphan of a Spirit Hall Cardinal.

A year ago, his parents unfortunately fell while pursuing Tang Hao with the Spirit Hall Supreme Pontiff, Qian Xunji. Afterward, he was adopted by his mother's best friend, Ye Yuaner.

Ye Yuaner held a very high status in Spirit Hall, serving as a Platinum Bishop of Spirit City.

A Rank 89 Spirit Douluo with the Blazing Fire Spirit Kite Spirit, she was also one of the future nine Elders of Spirit Hall.

"Giggle, if the Spirit you awaken is poor, Xiao Wen can only eat Auntie's food for the rest of your life."

Ye Yuaner let out a silver-bell-like giggle, a hint of pink on her pretty face. The look she gave Su Wen was filled with indescribable affection.

Su Wen was slightly stunned, only then realizing that Aunt Ye was trying to comfort him regarding his upcoming Spirit Awakening.

Everyone on Douluo Continent possesses a Spirit. The strength of the Innate Full Spirit Power one awakens determines how far they can go on the path of a Spirit Master.

Both the Spirit and the strength of the Innate Full Spirit Power are related to one's parents. Both of Su Wen's parents had Rank 7 Innate Full Spirit Power. Logically, Su Wen's couldn't be too low unless a mutation occurred.

"The day for Spirit Hall to awaken Spirits hasn't arrived yet, but it doesn't matter. Since today is your birthday and I am a Platinum Bishop, Auntie will open the back door for you!"

"Come, stand in the middle!"

With a casual flick of Ye Yuaner's hand, a hexagonal formation made of several black stones appeared out of thin air on the floor.

Su Wen nodded gently and walked into the center of the formation with great anticipation.

Spirit inheritance comes from parents. His father's Spirit was a Soul-Snatching Umbrella, and his mother's Spirit was a red flower that could absorb life and heal. Both were said to be mutated Spirits.

Su Wen was somewhat looking forward to seeing which Spirit he would inherit.

Ye Yuaner began to inject Soul Power, and the six stones flickered with light simultaneously.

Enveloped in the halo, Su Wen immediately felt something inside his body being pulled out, converging toward a certain point.

"Xiao Wen, stretch out your right hand!"

Su Wen nodded and immediately extended his right hand. His face couldn't help but carry a look of hope as his eyes stared intently at his palm.

Just then, a sinister wind whistled past, making the curtains rustle loudly.

In an instant, a gloomy aura soared into the sky. Endless resentment, baleful energy, and hostility rapidly enveloped Spirit City.

The originally clear sky darkened as thunder rolled and lightning flashed.

Su Wen shivered all over. He didn't see a Spirit; instead, he felt a chill down his back.

"Xiao Wen, you... behind you!"

Hearing this, Su Wen immediately turned around. Floating before him at some point was a woman dressed in a wedding gown.

She wore a bright red phoenix crown and an embroidered phoenix robe. Her figure was graceful, with a shawl draped over her shoulders and a red skirt trailing on the ground. One could faintly see her jade-like feet, their delicate tips dripping with blood.

Under the red veil, her face was pale, and her eyes emitted a hazy blood-red light. Her crimson lips were as vivid as if they had just consumed human blood.

Above the Spirit floated a red oil-paper umbrella. Its surface was covered in ancient, obscure incantations that flickered with a ghostly green light. Nine long banners hung from the sides, each with a talisman attached. The talismans were scrawled with unintelligible writing, seemingly sealing something away.

At the Spirit's feet was a bewitchingly beautiful flower with petals like blood and an alluring fragrance.

It looked a bit like a Crimson Spider Lily!

"What an evil aura!"

"What kind of Spirit is this?"

Ye Yuaner's gaze shifted in shock. She had never seen Xiao Wen's Spirit before; in fact, three things had appeared in succession. The umbrella and the flower were very similar to those of Su Wen's parents, yet there were differences. Clearly, a mutation had occurred.

"Wedding Dress Ghost Emperor... this umbrella and this flower aren't Spirits; they seem to be Natal Weapons!"

Su Wen silently read the Spirit information transmitted to his brain, leaving him stunned in place for a moment.

The phoenix crown and robes on the Spirit were too similar to the clothing from before his transmigration.

If this weren't Douluo Continent, he would have thought a paranormal event was occurring.

Looking at the dark-red, evil-filled aura emanating from the Spirit, Su Wen's mouth twitched. Fortunately, this wasn't ten thousand years later; otherwise, he would have been labeled an Evil Soul Master the moment he awakened and been hunted down.

Ye Yuaner's eyes brightened. It was a name she had never heard of before.

It looked like an unknown, powerful Spirit!

Suppressing her excitement, she took out a crystal ball for testing Soul Power.

"Xiao Wen, come and test your Innate Full Spirit Power. I feel it definitely won't be low."

Su Wen reached out and placed his hand on the crystal ball.

Following Ye Yuaner's instructions, he injected Soul Power into it.

In an instant, it was filled to the brim.

The crystal ball radiated light in all directions.

"Innate Rank 10!"

"Jie jie jie!"

"My Xiao Wen has the potential of a Douluo!"

Ye Yuaner grabbed Su Wen in a hug and then gave his chubby little cheek a fierce kiss.

A genius with Innate Full Spirit Power, provided they don't fall prematurely, would at the very least become a nine-ring Titled Douluo. With cultivation resources, they might even become a Super Douluo.

As for the dark-red evil aura emitted by the Spirit, she ignored it directly. The current Supreme Pontiff's Spirit also had evil attributes, as did some of the Titled experts in the Elder Palace. This was perfectly normal.

"Xiao Wen, what are Natal Weapons?"

"A Spirit's Natal Weapons refer to weapons that have a special connection with the Spirit. The two are inseparable and can be driven by one's will. Generally, Spirits with Natal Weapons are extremely powerful existences."

"Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff! Why are you here?"

Ye Yuaner was slightly startled. A woman was standing at the door at some unknown time.

The woman was beautiful, wearing a luxurious purple tight-fitting gown with gold patterns. Her waist was slender enough to be held in one hand, and the purple dress clung tightly to her exquisite body, outlining her perfect curves and presenting an indescribable, intoxicating charm.

"I came to see why an evil power appeared over Spirit City. I didn't expect it to be caused by your Spirit Awakening. Ye Yuaner, this is the child you adopted, right?"

Bibi Dong walked into the room, her beautiful eyes falling on Su Wen as she scrutinized him carefully.

A mutated Spirit with Innate Full Spirit Power, two Natal Weapons, and the same Spirit attribute as herself—this child had infinite potential.

"Reporting to Your Holiness, his name is Su Wen!"

Ye Yuaner pulled Su Wen to bow to Bibi Dong.

Bibi Dong nodded slightly. "Xiao Wen, your Spirit should be more than just this. Feel it again; is there something special about it?"
