Chapter 67 The Position of the Imperial Marshal

So, Ge Long couldn't help but ask:

"Nephew, what's going on with you?"

"Uncle Ge, are you talking about Wuhun?" Lin Rong understood what Ge Long was asking and answered:

"Just some little tricks, not worth mentioning."

In fact, as long as a soul master has high enough control over his own soul, he can reveal his soul ring without releasing his soul.

In this world, the reason why only Titled Douluo can do it is because often only when one has cultivated to the realm of Titled Douluo can a soul master achieve the required control over his own martial soul.

Lin Rong has practiced the Marrow Cleansing Sutra.

As early as after the Marrow Cleansing Sutra broke through the first realm of "empty mind and self-transformation", Lin Rong was able to achieve absolute control over the Jiuqu Vine Dragon Martial Spirit.

In addition, when Lin Rong broke through level 30 and obtained the soul ring of Celestial Vine, the Jiuqu Vine Dragon fully awakened and gave birth to a dragon soul consciousness that absolutely obeyed his orders.

With this dragon soul consciousness, even without the blessing of "empty heart and self-transformation", Lin Rong can rely on the dragon soul's absolute obedience to him, and then completely control his own martial soul.

"Uncle Ge, I know you have concerns." Lin Rong saw that Ge Long stopped talking after asking the question just now, so he tried to persuade him:

"Imperial law explicitly prohibits hereditary nobles from intervening in military power."

"Therefore, all the great marshals of the empire in the past were soul master geniuses who came from common people, just like you, Uncle Ge."

"However, Uncle Ge, although Hongjun has been recruited by me, the fact that he is from a commoner is an undisputed fact."

"The most important thing is that Hongjun is only nine years old this year. What evil intentions can a nine-year-old have?"

"This..." After hearing this, Ge Long expressed his last concern:

"My dear nephew, I might as well tell you."

"This child has a good background and his talent is high enough. Logically speaking, he will be able to take over my position when he grows up in the future."

"But the position of Grand Marshal of the Empire is not something I can give to anyone I want, but it requires His Majesty to personally order the canonization."

"Although this child is born a commoner, he has been trained in your house for several years. I am afraid that His Majesty will not let him take over my position."

After hearing this, Lin Rong knew that Ge Long himself had already taken care of it. All he had to do next was to eliminate the last concern in his heart and he would be done.

"Uncle Ge, you don't have to worry about this."

"I wonder if you have ever heard of a saying that when a person has his way, no one can stop him!"

"As long as Hongjun can win the support of all the soldiers, I believe that your wise and mighty Majesty will comply with the sincerity of the soldiers."

"As for why I am convinced that Hongjun can win the support of all soldiers, you will know after you experience it yourself."

After saying that, Lin Rong turned to Ma Hongjun and said:

"Hongjun, it's time for Uncle Ge to see your third soul skill. Remember, the scope of the soul skill should not be too large, just cover this camp!"

"Yes!" Ma Hongjun replied crisply, then looked at Ge Long and said:

"My lord, please take a look!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the lavender soul ring at Ma Hongjun's feet lit up.

"The third soul skill, Tianfeng Xuanyin!"

Qiang~Qiang~

A clear and passionate phoenix cry echoed in the camp.

After Ge Long heard the phoenix cry, he suddenly felt high-spirited and full of strength. At the same time, a weak warm current flowed in his body, making Gelong feel an indescribable comfort.

After Ge Long realized it for a moment, he looked at Ma Hongjun and said:

"Child, your third soul skill should be taken from a bird soul beast with the bloodline of the colorful Xuanyin Bird."

"Intense fighting spirit, all attributes increased by 3%, and the weak warmth in the body should be a continuous slight therapeutic effect."

"As for whether the control has been released, I don't know."

"The Fire Phoenix is indeed a top-notch bird martial spirit. It only absorbs the soul beast's soul ring from the blood of the colorful Xuanyin Bird. The effect of its soul skills is almost the same as that of the legendary Xuanyin Tianlai."

"Can you tell me, my commander, how much coverage does your third soul skill have?"

"Since my nephew is so confident, the coverage of your soul skills should not disappoint me."

"Hee hee." Ma Hongjun scratched his head and corrected him honestly:

"My lord, you guessed wrong!"

"My third soul ring is taken from a genuine colorful Xuanyin bird."

"As for the coverage area of soul skills, the initial range is one kilometer in radius, but each additional soul ring can increase it by one kilometer."

"I am now a third-ring soul master, and the coverage area of my third soul skill Tianfeng Xuanyin is four kilometers in radius."

Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!

After hearing this, Ge Long was surprised and calculated quickly in his mind:

The initial radius is one kilometer. After cultivating to the title Douluo, nine soul rings can increase the radius by nine kilometers, making the total radius ten kilometers.

If the martial spirit avatar is used and the coverage area of the third soul skill is doubled, wouldn't it be a radius of twenty kilometers?

Ge Long was shocked, glanced at Lin Rong beside him, and sighed:

"My dear nephew, you are really prepared. I admit that I cannot refuse a genius soul master with such magical skills."

"No wonder you are so confident. With such magical skills, it is easy for this child to win the support of all the soldiers."

"It seems that I will have to give up my position as Generalissimo of the Army to this child within a few years."

Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. Once we fight, you will die or I will live.

Every time soldiers go to the battlefield, they are walking before the door of life and death.

Especially for the soldiers at the lowest level, the chances of surviving on the battlefield are as high as a narrow escape.

At this time, Ma Hongjun's third soul skill Tianfeng Xuanyin has three major effects except for the release of control when releasing the soul skill.

Whether it's exciting fighting spirit, 3% of all attributes, or continuous light treatment, each of these three effects can greatly increase the chance of soldiers surviving on the battlefield.

And these three effects combined, unless the enemy army on the opposite side is a soul master army, it will be a completely crushing battle.

Ma Hongjun's soul skill greatly improves the chances of soldiers surviving on the battlefield, and can naturally win the heartfelt support of all soldiers.

By then, relying on Ma Hongjun's prestige in the army, even if he is not the general of the army, he can disobey orders and lead all the soldiers to openly disobey Emperor Tiandou's orders and still be safe.

As long as Ma Hongjun did not raise his troops to rebel, Emperor Tiandou would choose to turn a blind eye due to his prestige in the army.

Moreover, raising troops to rebel would damage Ma Hongjun's image in the hearts of the soldiers.

Therefore, if Lin Rong wanted to seize the Tiandou throne, he could only pass the blame for the collapse of the Tiandou royal family to Qian Renxue.

In order to avoid the Wuhun Palace's revenge as much as possible, the responsibility for destroying Qian Renxue's plan must be thrown to Tang San, asking him to help attract the Wuhun Palace's hatred and firepower.
