Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler
chapter-465

--- Chapter 462 ---

Minato and Kushina are nervous.

They truly gambled by taking Yunlong's offer to a reincarnation, but they couldn't take such a decision back.

Their only option is to do their best.

Who knows? Yunlong might let them out faster.

Yunlong watched their expression and commented, "Calm down. I won't do anything bad to you."

"You will be able to meet Naruto and your grandchildren soon."

"Let's focus on getting your Martial Soul a proper head start for now."

Minato and Kushina nodded, "Yes, let's do that."

Yunlong smiled and shared the Red Cloud Heaven Art with them. Minato grasped the Energy Cultivation techniques quickly due to his intellect. His spirit energy surged fast.

Kushina wasn't left behind either and even grasped more Soul Cultivation Technique than Minato, causing her body to propel adaptiveness more with the Red Cloud Heaven Art.

Yunlong didn't let them contract Artificial Souls yet because he wanted to see how far Minato and Kushina could distill their spirit energy. A better physical and spiritual foundation would enable them to absorb older spirit rings.

With that in mind, Yunlong silently observed Minato and Kushina, who had summoned their Martial Soul.

Minato's Martial Soul is the Break Space Golden Sparrow. It was a rare Martial Soul with space-time attributes and an ancient physique.

While space-time was in Minato's arsenal due to his Flying Thunder God Jutsu and other related sealing techniques, the Break Space Golden Sparrow allowed Minato to cover his physical weakness.

Minato can awaken the Break Space Golden Sparrow into a Divine Beast with the proper development and chance. If Minato is an ordinary Spirit Master, he would have struggled to cultivate such a Martial Soul.

After all, the Break Space Golden Sparrow is very demanding in absorbing Spirit Rings because it always needs a suitable one. It won't accept Spirit Ring with no space-time and physical attribute.

Thankfully, Artificial Souls always match with one's Martial Soul.

Minato also possessed Reverse Flash Continuum's bloodline, which gave him a deep understanding of space-time. It will change his perspective on using space-time offensive, not just teleporting around the battlefield.

On the other hand, Kushina also experienced a solvable problem.

Given that Kushina luckily awakened Twin Martial Souls, Stamp of Sky, and Chain of Earth. Her development as a Spirit Master is already better than Minato's, but her Martial Soul is control-type.

Again, it's nothing that Artificial Souls couldn't solve.

However, Kushina's bloodline is a game changer. It allowed her to fuse her Martial Soul and others as long as they were control-type.

Yes, including other's Martial Soul.

Even though Minato's Martial Soul is strong at offensive, it also possesses control ability.

Yunlong is thinking of getting Kushina to develop Twin Martial Souls at once. She could do a Self-Spirit Fusion and wield a more restrictive power against her enemy.

He also thought Kushina could do Triple Spirit Fusion with Minato.

After thinking that, Yunlong immediately prepared Artificial Souls for them. He wondered what kind of Artificial Souls they would get.

"Okay, stop." Yunlong clapped his hand, waking Minato and Kushina.

Minato slowly opened his eyes and breathed out, feeling newfound power flow in his veins. The same goes for Kushina, but she felt her mind more clearer than anything.

They stared at Yunlong and saw two balls of lights on his right palm.

They don't know why, but the ball of light looks enjoyable.

Yunlong explained while waving the ball of lights, "This is Artificial Soul, something I created to support Spirit Master's cultivation."

"Like your new bodies, it could adapt to your soul."

"Now, let's see which Artificial Souls you two can get."

"Minato, you first." Yunlong threw one to Minato.

"Uh?" Minato awkwardly wanted to catch the Artificial Soul, but it passed through his hand and entered his chest. "Is that supposed to happen?"

Yunlong smiled mysteriously, "Just wait. Everyone reacted similarly to you when contracting their Artificial Souls."

Minato sensed a heartbeat in his chest and felt an impulse lighten up his body. It was comfortable and uncomfortable simultaneously.

A long-necked and yellow-feathered condor appeared on Minato's left shoulder and nudged his neck gently, giving the blonde-haired man a happy cry.

"Temporal-Gliding Yellow Condor." Yunlong praised Minato. "A beast with space-time and physical attributes. It's very suitable for your Break Space Golden Sparrow."

"I will perform a contract between you and the condor and then proceed to Kushina."

"Please." Minato smiled, patting the condor gently.

After performing a contract ritual, Minato obtained his 1st Spirit Ring from the Temporal-Gliding Yellow Condor, a black spirit ring over 20,000 years old.

Yunlong glanced at Kushina this time and sent the other white light ball into her soul. She didn't show much reaction like Minato, though.

Kushina cupped her hand, and a red mouse entered Yunlong and Minato's vision. The mouse is 'extremely' small as if it were a red-colored furball, and one must have detailed eyes to see it.

Minato couldn't feel anything special from the mouse, but Yunlong was different.

Yunlong scanned the red mouse and was dumbfounded.

The red mouse is a Behemoth. A variant Behemoth named Three Realm Glory Beast with the ability to control gravity, bend the sky, and crush mountains.

Unfortunately, this Three Realm Glory Beast is just a newborn, or it would be a monster in a large-scale war. Its ability to control the battlefield is superior to any control-type beast Yunlong saw.

For Kushina to have such an Artificial Soul, she was very blessed.

In a way, this is how fate repaid her karma and suffering.

"I will call you Akagami!" Kushina giggled, playing with the mouse. If only she knew the little beast's terrifying potential.

Yunlong's mouth twitched slightly, "Anyway, let's perform a contract between you two."

"Okay!" Kushina responded excitedly. She would never think of having a pet.

In the past, Kurama(Ninetails) sealed inside her would always intimidate any animals close to her. She couldn't even pat a rabbit or a cat.

Yunlong performed the ritual, and unlike Minato, Kushina's 1st Spirit Ring is white, not even nine years old.

But that is only her Stamp of Sky.

Since this rare kind of Artificial Soul is suitable for Kushina, it can provide two spirit rings at once for her Twin Martial Soul.

Sure enough. Kushina also gets another white spirit ring for her Chain of Earth.

Yunlong snapped his finger, and the room expanded by a few hundred kilometers. "For the next three days, I want you to survive against these endless waves of enemies."

"Use your spirit skills to the fullest, and apply your experience in Ninjutsu and Fuinjutsu."

"Without further ado, are you ready?"

Minato and Kushina looked around, finding many beasts and monsters rushing toward them.

They smiled at each other.

"We are ready!"

"Good." Yunlong floated in the sky and clapped.

"Begin!"

...

...

At the same time, Yunlong watched two brothers fight the endless waves of enemies in another section. He shook his head because these two were monsters on their own.

No wonder their Chakra is so strong and could reincarnate into someone like Madara, Hashirama, Sasuke, and Naruto.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Ashura and Indra dominated the battlefield. Their combat style is rough but destructive, bombarding the endless waves of spirit beasts with their newfound strengths.

Yunlong had to admit.

These two are Yunlong's wildcards.

...

"Stop taking my prey, Ashura!" Indra shouted at his bothersome younger brother. Behind him is the Chaotic Divine Storm Avatar, who looks like a man in ancient armor, wielding a black saber and bow in his hands.

Ashura smiled calmly, "What are you talking about, Big Brother? I'm just helping you."

Behind Ashura is the Benevolent Buddha-faced Asura, a kind-faced avatar who similarly wears ancient armor but with two more pairs of arms.

One represents a stormy night, and the other shows the light of a sunny day.

Yunlong smiled at these two, "I can't wait to see them catching the Otsutsuki off guard."
