"Let's go with that then!"
"I don't need your million-year Spirit Ring. Just strip a portion of your cultivation and convert it into spiritual-type Martial Soul essence to fuse with my eyes."
"I have a method that will help my eyes better integrate the spiritual Martial Soul essence you're bringing."
"Even if they explode, I can easily recover."
Ye Yu smiled and spoke slowly.
"As for the quality of this Martial Soul—just raise it to the highest level."
"For the ice-attribute Martial Soul that comes after, I have my own ways to restore its Martial Soul essence."
"Very well!"
"Then, Honorable Spirit Master, I'll begin the research accordingly!"
Since Ye Yu had proposed a viable solution—and it seemed achievable—
The Skydream Iceworm grit its teeth and committed to working on it.
In the blink of an eye, several more months passed.
Once preparations were complete—
Ye Yu realized that the Skydream Iceworm's Intelligent Spirit Ring method involved a considerable commotion,
It wasn't suitable to conduct it within the Dugu family residence.
Thus, Ye Yu brought the Skydream Iceworm to the vast forests outside of Heaven Dou Imperial City.
After confirming there were no dangers around—
Ye Yu summoned his Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree Martial Soul, patted the trunk gently, and smiled.
"Xiao Yin, if things get dangerous later, make sure you protect me, okay?"
Upon hearing Ye Yu's words—
Now materialized and having developed intelligence, the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree Martial Soul began to shake, its thick, supple, crystal-blue branches swaying.
A soft rustling sound followed—
As if it were seriously responding, "Xiao Yin understands!"
"Tian Meng, let's begin!"
Standing on a grassy patch in front of the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree Martial Soul,
Ye Yu summoned the Skydream Iceworm from the Blue Silver Space and gave the signal.
"Honorable Spirit Master, ready when you are!"
Upon being summoned—
Staring at Ye Yu in front of it, the Skydream Iceworm gave one last reminder, then immediately activated the Intelligent Spirit Ring Method.
In an instant, a dazzling white glow burst forth from its jade-like, plump body, illuminating half the sky.
Bathed in this glow—
The ten golden rings on the Skydream Iceworm's body seemed to come alive, undulating across its form.
Eventually, they fused together into a brilliant golden ring of light.
Then, as it separated from the worm's body—
That golden ring instantly split into a crimson-red Spirit Ring, and a golden orb of light.
The crimson Spirit Ring hovered mid-air,
Continuously pulsing.
Meanwhile, the golden orb of light shot straight toward Ye Yu's forehead, disappearing between his brows in an instant.
It then split into two steady streams of warm energy, flowing into both of Ye Yu's eyes.
As the Skydream Iceworm's spiritual-type essence—stripped from the million-year Spirit Ring—fused into Ye Yu's eyes,
They suddenly burst forth with brilliant golden light.
To ensure a successful fusion of the Skydream Iceworm's spiritual-type essence,
And transform his eyes into a spiritual-type innate Martial Soul,
Ye Yu had already made preparations in advance—first channeling a portion of his blood essence into his eyes.
But he quickly discovered—
blood essence alone wasn't sufficient to carry the spiritual essence.
It seemed that the essence needed to create a Martial Soul was different from bloodline essence.
Still, it didn't matter.
Realizing the inadequacy of pure blood essence,
Ye Yu immediately fused blood essence, spiritual power, and spirit power together, channeling them into his eyes.
He refused to believe it!
The fusion of the Three Treasures—Essence, Qi, and Spirit, the very force that allows Martial Souls to materialize—
Should surely be capable of carrying Martial Soul essence!
And as it turned out, the energy formed by the three indeed proved extraordinary.
It successfully bore the Skydream Iceworm's spiritual essence, which was pouring nonstop into Ye Yu's eyes.
Finally, the essence and the energy fused completely into Ye Yu's eyes.
"Hahaha! It worked!"
"I did it!"
"I'm not gonna die!"
Now floating in midair, the Skydream Iceworm's once plump body had turned into an icy white jade-like sculpture. It trembled in excitement and elation.
Immediately, it retracted its massive spiritual power.
Its soul quickly detached from its body and entered the crimson Spirit Ring.
At the same time, from within its frozen jade body—
A stream of icy-white energy was forcefully extracted, condensing into a glowing orb.
As the crimson Spirit Ring rapidly encircled Ye Yu,
The icy-white light orb transformed into a streak of light and shot into his brow, entering his spiritual sea—
Becoming a formless ice-attribute Martial Soul prototype.
Since the Intelligent Spirit Ring method was fundamentally based on the sacrificial talent of Spirit Beasts,
The crimson Spirit Ring generated by the Skydream Iceworm immediately integrated into Ye Yu upon contact.
In an instant, it successfully fused into his body—
Becoming the first Spirit Ring of Ye Yu's newly awakened spiritual-type eye Martial Soul!
At that moment, Ye Yu slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of gem-like silver-blue irises.
Though the color hadn't changed,
After becoming a Martial Soul—
His eyes now resembled blue sapphires, gleaming with radiant brilliance and a faint multicolored glow—extraordinary in every way.
"It worked."
Now that his eyes had become a Martial Soul, Ye Yu stood up and took out a crystal mirror.
Seeing the transformation in his eyes—
And feeling how his eyes now operated differently—his Purple Demon Eye now seemingly in a permanent active state, ready to use at will—
A satisfied smile formed on Ye Yu's handsome face.
These eyes were now his innate Martial Soul.
Not only had he obtained a second Martial Soul, enabling him to continue absorbing Spirit Rings and acquiring Spirit Abilities—
But as an innate Martial Soul, he could now enhance it through cultivating the corresponding body part.
From Tang San, he had secretly learned the Purple Demon Eye technique.
This eye technique allowed cultivation of the eyes.
In the future, he would definitely be able to make his Eye Martial Soul evolve once more.
With a thought—
Ye Yu summoned the crimson Spirit Ring beneath his feet, belonging to his second Martial Soul.
Although he had previously told the Skydream Iceworm—
That he hoped to receive offensive Spirit Abilities from the Spirit Ring—
He still wanted to test it and see.
Standing in the grassy field—
With a single thought, the crimson Spirit Ring around Ye Yu began to glow.
In an instant, a silver-white light—the shape of spiritual power itself—burst forth, forming a silver-white domain that spread outward and enveloped the surroundings.
As the feedback from the test came in—
Ye Yu confirmed that this was indeed Spiritual Disruption Domain, the third Spirit Ability from Huo Yuhao's Spirit Eyes Martial Soul at the million-year level.
Its effect: disrupting the minds of enemies within the domain—causing hallucinations, disorientation, and misfires during combat or Spirit Ability release.
As for the second Spirit Ability, from the Skydream Iceworm's hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring—
It was Soul Shock.
Its effect: instantly converting Spirit Power into powerful spiritual energy to launch a direct assault on the enemy's soul.
It dealt massive damage.
If the enemy's spiritual power was weaker than Ye Yu's—
Then their soul and brain would directly explode!
After testing both Spirit Abilities—
Ye Yu was quite satisfied.
Currently, his cultivation had reached the peak of Limit Douluo, and he had already condensed a complete Spirit Core.
As for his second Spirit Core, formed from consuming a Star Luo Holy Pearl fruit, it had already developed a core prototype.
However, that second Spirit Core was fused with Mysterious Heaven Skill inner power.
Yet Ye Yu had only learned up to the third level of the Mysterious Heaven Skill from Tang San.
To fully form the second Spirit Core, he needed to complete all ten levels of the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
But Ye Yu wasn't worried.
He could also condense a third Spirit Core by cultivating his second Martial Soul.
And with the Blue Silver Spirit Jade Tree sub-bodies acting like a cheat,
In the future, he wanted to condense a Spirit Core in every single acupuncture point in his body!
At that point, when he unleashed Soul Shock, who could withstand it?
Even gods wouldn't stand a chance!
And now, having successfully "intercepted" the Skydream Iceworm and gained a new eye-based innate Martial Soul—
Ye Yu couldn't help but feel a bit mischievous about naming it.
"Since it's an eye Martial Soul... I'll just call you Spirit Eyes!"
