Inside the poisonous miasma that emitted colorful halos, Quan Yi and Huowu were making their final preparations before leaving.
Closing the doors and windows, tidying up the bedding and clothes, Quan Yi closed the door of the wooden house.
Quan Yi and Huowu looked around the entire wooden house, and Quan Yi sighed, "Once we leave this time, it seems like it will be a long time before we can come back."
A look of reluctance flashed in Huowu's eyes.
"Senior Dugu will probably become increasingly busy in the future, and no one will come to take care of this place."
She gazed at the wooden house that held so many beautiful memories for the two of them, feeling somewhat reluctant to let it fall into disrepair.
Quan Yi smiled, raised his hand, and with a wave, five-colored rays of light shot out from his fingertips, seeping into the wooden house.
Instantly, five-colored brilliance burst out from inside the house, and then, the several-foot-long rays of light rapidly contracted inward, transforming into a five-colored halo that flowed around each other, remaining on the surface of the objects.
This halo was too thin to be seen clearly with the naked eye, making it difficult to discern how many colors it actually had.
However, this faint halo formed a dynamic balance, creating a protective layer that could resist external decay for a long time.
"Don't worry, with this layer of energy, it's enough to guarantee that the wooden house will last for ten thousand years. Even if there is a natural disaster, it won't fear the destruction of external forces."
Quan Yi's control over the five elements became increasingly profound. By injecting the energy of the five elements into the house, it would naturally maintain its balance.
As long as there was no external force exceeding the limit of what it could withstand to break this balance, and as long as the elements in the outside world were not completely exhausted, it was not impossible for it to continue indefinitely.
Seeing Quan Yi protect the house, Huowu smiled happily. With her last worry resolved, the two of them had no reason to stay here any longer.
Just as she and Quan Yi joined hands and flew out of the poisonous miasma, intending to fly towards Tiandou City, Quan Yi pulled her down towards the ground.
"I have something I want to test."
Quan Yi mysteriously led Huowu to a forest slightly farther away from the poisonous miasma.
Just as Huowu was wondering what Quan Yi was going to do, he whistled.
"Shh!"
The sharp whistle instantly swept through several miles, and within it, Huowu noticed that Quan Yi's eyes flashed with a purplish-golden glow, and the whistle contained mental fluctuations similar to dragon might.
The sharp whistle and the heavy mental fluctuations were superimposed together, forming a strange contrast.
This whistle quickly caused a commotion.
"Swish, swish."
Without using her divine sense, Huowu's keen hearing detected a soul beast with a considerable size rapidly approaching from not far away.
A black shadow quietly passed through the dense forest, quickly approaching them.
When a giant black tiger, over five meters tall, stopped in front of them, its identity was revealed.
This was a Ghost Tiger soul beast with a cultivation of up to ninety thousand years.
What surprised Huowu was not its age, but the fact that this Ghost Tiger actually walked up to Quan Yi like a domesticated pet cat, innocently rubbing its cheek against Quan Yi's body.
Quan Yi also showed no defenses, very naturally opening his arms and indulging in stroking the silky fur on its cheek.
"Good boy, little tiger, I want to ask you to give us a ride and take us out of this forest."
Hearing Quan Yi's words, the Ghost Tiger immediately prostrated itself in front of them, turning its head to signal for the two of them to sit on its back.
Huowu looked at the obedient Ghost Tiger with a surprised expression, frozen in place.
At this time, Quan Yi pulled Huowu and said, "What are you spacing out for? Today, let's leave the forest on its back."
Huowu was lifted onto the tiger's back by Quan Yi, sitting in front of Quan Yi.
Quan Yi gently tapped the tiger's back with his feet as if he were riding a horse, and the Ghost Tiger very sensibly got up and ran towards the outside of the forest.
The Ghost Tiger's back was very spacious, and two people could even lie down and move forward on it. Moreover, the Ghost Tiger's movements were fast and stable, with no sense of bumps at all.
Watching the forest scenery rapidly move backward, Huowu asked with a smile, "Husband, what exactly is going on? When did you tame this Ghost Tiger?"
Quan Yi didn't keep her in suspense, smiling slightly smugly, "Hehe, just now, I used my newly awakened ability to tame this wild soul beast."
"Newly awakened ability?"
"Yes, this time, after absorbing the Fire Dragon King's soul bone, I awakened a talent ability to control soul beasts, just like Weapon Stealing.
The Dragon Soul and the significant improvement of the Dragon Clan bloodline caused my martial soul to awaken special talent abilities related to dragon characteristics.
This talent is called 'Glory of the Dragon King'. When using this talent, I can control soul beasts, and even soul masters with beast martial souls.
Its specific effect is determined according to the other party's bloodline strength, soul power, mental level, and so on.
Perhaps this is not clear enough. Simply put, non-god-level beasts and beast soul masters are all within my control.
The only problem is how much divine power and divine sense I can use to support my control."
If you looked closely at the Ghost Tiger's eyes, you could faintly see a dark purplish-golden glow flickering deep within its originally black pupils.
It was this glow that was influencing it, making it controlled by Quan Yi.
Hearing the explanation, Huowu took a deep breath and said, "The ability to control all beasts, is this the Glory of the Dragon King!
Weapon Stealing + Beast Control, doesn't this mean that you can control the vast majority of soul masters? No matter how many soul masters gather in front of you, it's meaningless."
Although Huowu herself also had the Tyrant Domain, her manipulation was aimed at the opponent's will, not the martial soul itself.
In this sense, Quan Yi and Huowu formed a complementary relationship in control.
Huowu controlled the opponent's soul and body, while Quan Yi controlled the opponent's martial soul.
When the two of them used control methods at the same time, that scene was simply unimaginable.
Quan Yi, however, nonchalantly lay on the soft, fluffy blanket, and said softly, "As long as they don't actively provoke me, this ability doesn't necessarily have to be used only for control.
For our own side, this ability may also have the effect of enhancing the martial soul, similar to Weapon Stealing.
Moreover, as you said, it can control the vast majority of soul masters, but there are exceptions.
Like your Fire Shadow, Guimei's Guimei, similar body martial souls like these are difficult to exert any effect on."
Huowu also understood this weakness, but because of this, she thought of something.
"What about the search for body martial soul owners?"
Quan Yi replied, "Don't worry, I have already instructed my family to send people to collect information about body martial souls.
Fortunately, the Spirit Hall has not noticed the hidden secrets of body martial souls, and the outside world should retain a considerable number of body soul masters.
With our Quan family's layout across the continent, as long as we give them some time, we will be able to find them soon.
At that time, I would also like to ask you to serve as a teacher for body soul masters."
