"The Far North?"
Tang Zhen stared at Mu En, as if he could see through Mu En's heart. Every word he spoke seemed to carry endless temptation.
He is not a spirit master, nor is he good at spirit skills.
All this temptation comes from his murderous intent. His murderous intention seems to have a deterrent effect, making people unable to hide their emotions.
Fortunately, Mu En is strong inside and is indestructible after experiencing repeated failures and re-emergence.
Although it seems that Tang Zhen's momentum is more terrifying, in fact it is just that his strength is more exaggerated, and when it explodes, it poses a greater threat to others.
That's all.
In terms of strength, Mu En is no less powerful than anyone else.
He also has three hundred thousand year spirit rings, but compared to Tang Zhen, he has five ten thousand year spirit rings less.
Do five ten thousand year spirit rings have a big impact?
Very big, quite big!
But after developing his own unique fighting skills, even the impact of a hundred thousand year spirit ring is actually very small.
Mu En developed the secret skills of the Holy Dragon of Light on his own, so one can imagine his talent. Whether it's the Dragon Emperor's Evil Break or the Dragon Emperor's Realm Shock, it has a restraining effect on Tang Zhen, who cultivates the aura of killing.
Without the intervention of the Shura God, Mu En believed that he, a veteran Extreme Douluo, would not be weaker than the other party.
"Tang Zhen, I know you are affected by the murderous aura, but you have been practicing under the ancient golden tree for half a year. The practice of our Sea God Pavilion elders has been affected by you. I don't care how your practice has been in the past half year, and you are not qualified to use the excuse that the murderous aura is too strong and affects your thoughts to be so presumptuous!"
Half a year ago, you came to Shrek with murderous intent. You were only level 98 at that time, and I could tolerate your rude words.
But now, after training in the Sea God Pavilion for half a year and subsiding my murderous aura, if you continue to act so recklessly with this excuse, I will not be able to bear it.
Mu En's subtext was obvious, and the ministers behind him were also at ease.
With support in their hearts, they were greatly less affected by Tang Zhen's murderous aura.
Tang Zhen frowned and restrained his murderous intent.
"Haotian Sect and Shrek have always been on good terms. I hope you can forgive me for rashly breaking into the Sea God Pavilion half a year ago."
Hearing this, Mu En's expression finally eased a little.
"I have some guesses about your situation. You want to find the messenger of death. What I can tell you is that according to our investigation, the messenger of death is in the far north."
Mu En did not tell Tang Zhen about Chen Ming's situation.
He did not say that Chen Ming had the inheritance of the God of Light, nor did he say that Chen Ming's test had an origin of devouring the ancient golden tree.
It's not that he doesn't want to say it, but that he can't say it.
After all, he cheated the ancient golden tree and obtained a large amount of life essence, which transformed him and gave him a new life for his great-grandson.
There would be no benefit for him to say these two points. Instead, it would make the Shura God behind Tang Zhen, that is, the Sea God Tang San, disgusted. Of course, he was not that stupid.
"The Far North? What are its characteristics?"
When Mu En heard this, his eyes flickered.
Don't even know the characteristics?
He breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Tang Zhen did not get many oracles through the Shura God.
"The instructions given to me by the Sea God are to have twin martial souls, spiritual attribute talents far beyond those of ordinary soul masters, and the second martial soul is of ice attribute and is related to ice silkworms. As far as we know, there is a soul master named Tianmeng who has all these conditions at the same time."
As Tang Zhen listened to Mu En's words, his eyes lit up.
Very good, the target has been locked, so the next step is to kill him.
"Is this Tianmeng sure to be in the Far North?"
"His second martial soul is the ultimate ice, and his first martial soul is the ice silkworm. The Far North is a dead end for other soul masters, but for him it is the best mimicry environment. His cultivation speed may even double in the Far North!"
This point alone convinced Tang Zhen.
There is no soul master who doesn't like the speed of cultivation.
For this kind of thing, the sooner the better.
Even if you leave the Far North for various reasons, it is difficult to be away from the Far North for a whole year.
"The Far North is vast, and we were previously busy dealing with the Sun and Moon armies and had no time to spare, so we are unable to pinpoint the exact location of Tianmeng," said Mu En.
Tang Zhen waved his hand.
"I can find it myself."
So far, Tang Zhen has only received two assessments that required him to increase his killing affinity, and the affinity given each time was not very high.
Now he only has 10% affinity. The seventh test has a reward of 30%, but even if added together, it is only 40%.
If one of the eighth and ninth tests does not have an affinity reward, and another test has other rewards mixed in, then it will be difficult for him to raise the affinity to 100%.
Tang Zhen didn't know what affinity level was considered satisfactory, but he knew the higher the value, the better.
However, the affinity rewards clearly marked in the assessment may not reach 100%, so how can people answer the questions?
Therefore, there must be hidden levels and hidden mechanisms.
As long as you complete it well, you will get extra rewards.
Because of this, Tang Zhen is not going to ask outsiders for help.
He wanted to find Tian Meng himself and then kill him cleanly and neatly!
After Tang Zhen left, Mu En thought for a moment and asked Xuan Zi, "Have you found the people from the Body Sect?"
The Body Sect suddenly disappeared for half a year, and the entire continent was also quiet for half a year. Under this kind of calm, people always feel a sense of fear.
Xuan Zi said: "Now only some disciples of the Body Sect are in the Eastern Five Elements Province and Black Dragon City. According to our understanding, the Samsara Hall there has been established and developed rapidly. In just half a year, the number of soul masters under its jurisdiction has reached 30,000. According to the intelligence we found out two months ago, there are at least 5,000 soul masters with spirit rings among these soul masters."
Mu En took a deep breath and realized something was wrong.
The number of soul masters with soul rings has reached five thousand.
This even exceeds the number of soul masters in the Tianhun Empire's army.
If we add the remaining 25,000 soul masters who have not obtained soul rings but have soul power, the situation will be even more terrifying.
There is a difference between having soul power and not having soul power. Not only will your body be stronger and have an advantage in strength, but your endurance will also be better, and your defense and survivability will be greatly improved.
Not only that, it would be fine if the strange and bizarre martial spirits did not have soul power. Once they had soul power, the effects they could exert would undergo a qualitative change.
This qualitative change is not very important for true soul masters like Mu En, but it is very critical for ordinary people without soul power.
Tiny, but enough to make a qualitative change.
Maybe it's impossible to fight one against two or one against three, but one against one will generally be a crushing victory.
Mu En looked at Xuan Zi.
The two looked at each other and realized the seriousness of the problem.
The elders around them listened to their words and their hearts gradually sank.
"What does the Body Sect want to do?"
Are they planning to explore the Continent of Samsara?
Not really.
Instead, it seems more like developing a huge organization, just like the Spirit Hall ten thousand years ago.
"Find! Find Du Bu Si for me. Even if we have to search the land area of Douluo Three Kingdoms twice, we must find him!" Mu En said in a deep voice.
He had a bad feeling that he might have been careless.
Why hasn't he paid attention to the Body Sect in the past six months?
Have they already gone out to sea?
Could it be that they have discovered a new world?
Although the Samsara Continent was the will of the Sea God, Mu En still didn't know what was there or what he was going to do there.
Maybe it was purely to give Shrek some benefits and advantages so that they could plunder the resources of a continent, so as to better develop themselves and deal with the invasion of the Sun-Moon Empire.
Unfortunately, with Mu En's attention, Shrek did not find the target they were looking for. Du Bu Si was currently in seclusion in the rear of Sun and Moon, and it was not possible for them to find him in Douluo Three Kingdoms.
Time flies, and another two months have passed.
Mu En couldn't sit still anymore, he left Shrek and headed straight to the Nanming Province of the Douling Empire and went to the Nanming Samsara Palace.
This time, even if he has to use violence, he must find out the whereabouts of Du Busi.
The continent of Samsara.
Dragon Valley Small World.
This small world is not as unstable as in the original work, and people can only enter it collectively once in a while.
I don't know if it's because it has just been unsealed and its connection with Douluo Continent is still very deep, or if there is some will inside this small world interfering. In short, the connection between this small world and Douluo Continent is now very stable.
As long as there is a power that can stimulate the corresponding space node, the passage to the small world can be opened. Although the soul power will still be sealed when entering the small world, there is no limit on the soul power cultivation.
The Dragon Valley is filled with rich heaven and earth vitality, and with all kinds of dragon clouds and beast souls, it is simply a holy place for cultivation.
Whether it is Dragon Cloud or Beast Soul, the nourishing effect for the soul masters of the Body Sect is far greater than that of Yang Spiring. In addition, there are corpses left by various real dragons here. Once they match each other, they are likely to be selected.
Such a small world is of course the most suitable for the development of the Body Sect.
The only pity is that this small world is currently still above Hanhai Island, and Hanhai Island is surrounded by sea soul beasts. It will be very troublesome to enter and exit the small world on a large scale, and Chen Ming has no way to move this node for the time being.
Chen Ming sat cross-legged. He was not in seclusion in the Dragon Cemetery, but on the outskirts of the Dragon Valley.
A special area was formed where he was, where light and darkness were opposed, ice and fire were opposed. With him as the center, the surrounding area was divided into four equal parts, and each part was a gathering of dragon clouds of a certain attribute.
In this four-colored area, Chen Ming sat safely at the intersection. Above his head, a dragon cloud spontaneously formed a vortex structure, which continuously supplied him with the vitality of heaven and earth.
Yes, to supply the heaven and earth with vital energy, rather than to baptize him.
The energies within these dragon clouds were weak and had already been absorbed by Chen Ming. However, they cooperated with each other to gather the vitality of heaven and earth in the Dragon Valley small world for Chen Ming, allowing Chen Ming to devote himself more fully to practice.
At this moment, Chen Ming's soul power surged, and it was as if there was a sound of raging waves. The soul power rolled in his meridians, and the rumbling sound of the impact was even reflected in the outside world.
His meridians that had been empty due to the condensation of soul bones have now been filled by nearly half, and they are filled with extremely high concentration of liquid soul power.
It can be imagined that with just a few more levels, Chen Ming will definitely be able to start the second solid-state transformation before level 75.
Not only that, Chen Ming's mental power is also extremely active at this moment. There seems to be a vortex structure above the sea of spirituality, which can collapse at any time and swallow up all the mental power, thus forming a spiritual soul core.
Dual soul cores at the same time!
This is also the point where Chen Ming hesitated.
He has not yet decided whether to condense the two soul cores at the same time, or simply condense the spiritual soul core, and then condense the soul power soul core in the lower dantian or the middle dantian step by step when he is crowned as a Titled Douluo.
Simultaneous condensation certainly has its advantages, but this is only based on isotopic resonance.
As for the complementary nature of yin and yang
Chen Ming wanted to pursue the complementarity of yin and yang, and he also knew that he had the conditions to do so in this life.
"I have seen Di Tian's soul core. The vortex-shaped soul power is the key. The collision of two soul cores causes the soul power to merge and form a strange vortex shape, thus possessing the characteristics of two soul cores at the same time."
Features, that's the key.
Di Tian does not have a twin martial soul, but the power he controls actually has two obvious directions, one is extreme darkness, and the other is space.
He combined these two points very well, which is the Yin-Yang complementary dual soul core.
The so-called complementarity is the fusion after collision.
"The three soul cores operate independently of each other, but they also form periodic changes, allowing all the soul power to fully collide and fuse the power of the three soul cores. This may be the yin and yang complementarity of the three soul cores."
The yin and yang in the yin and yang complementarity do not specifically refer to two soul cores, but to the collision and opposition.
Complementarity is the key.
Although the three soul cores cannot specify yin and yang, they can be yin and yang to each other. Collisions between the three exist, thus giving birth to soul power with the characteristics represented by the three soul cores.
Chen Ming knew that even if the attributes of soul cores were not specifically distinguished, different soul cores would have different characteristics, because only in this way could dual soul cores be condensed.
There is only a threshold but no bottleneck in the condensation of the first soul core. As long as the opportunity comes, you can break through.
However, it is difficult to condense the second soul core. It is not only a matter of opportunity and chance, but also depends on the soul master himself.
Mu En has two soul cores. Although he looks like a Holy Dragon of Light, he is actually proficient in many powers. The light attribute is what he is good at. He also absorbs the hostility in the dragon pill and has a strong use of blood power. In addition, he has mental power.
Even if he is not a mental soul master, his use of mental power far exceeds that of mental soul masters. Jun Lin Tianxia has perfectly integrated mental power and soul power.
So it is normal for him to be able to condense dual soul cores.
Xuan Zi relies too much on his martial soul. Without external help, he will definitely not be able to condense his second soul core because he does not have his own second main attribute.
Ye Xishui is easy to understand. A twin martial soul naturally has two cores.
Long Xiaoyao is the Dark Holy Dragon, so it goes without saying that he has the dark attribute. As for the core characteristics of the second soul core, Chen Ming doesn't know either.
If the characteristics are regarded as the key and core of the soul core, then many things will be clear at a glance.
Including the fact that Du Bu Si cannot break through level 99, it is actually because his characteristics are not enough.
Poison skills were what he was good at, and he used them to condense a soul core, but he also integrated his own physical essence into it, which resulted in him being unable to use his expertise as a characteristic in the next second soul core.
So if he wanted to break through, in addition to exploring the origin of his spirit, he also had to find a way to cultivate a completely new main attribute.
"Yin and Yang complement each other, which is the collision and fusion of characteristics. It allows soul power to have multiple characteristics at the same time, which naturally makes it more powerful."
Chen Ming said: "The same is true for the switching of twin martial souls. Although they are all one's own soul power, the soul power characteristics required to use different martial souls are actually different, and soul power can only have one characteristic for a short time at the same time, so it is impossible to use two martial souls at the same time. You can only prepare a small part of the soul power in advance and convert it into the characteristics of the second martial soul, so that you can quickly switch between the two martial souls."
"If the soul cores can complement each other and collide with each other to produce multiple characteristics at the same time, then the twin martial souls can be used at the same time."
All kinds of thoughts were churning in Chen Ming's mind.
Of course he wants this state.
However, yin and yang complementarity is not his first choice.
In my previous life, I did not dare to pursue the method of complementary yin and yang, but in this life, I had the conditions to do so but I voluntarily gave it up.
Chen Ming felt helpless.
But this is really not necessary.
"The harmony of all things has given me the ability to harmonize everything. My trunk bones have already accomplished this!"
Chen Ming opened his eyes and released his two martial souls at the same time. There were ten soul rings outside his body arranged in two layers. The upper layer was four reds, and the lower layer was black, black, red, black, red, red.
"The question now is whether I should condense two soul cores at the same time."
Will the condensation of soul power and soul core have an impact on the condensation of soul bones in the future?
After all, the condensation of soul bones can also be regarded as the transformation of soul cores into soul bones. What if the condensation of soul bones conflicts with the existing soul power and soul cores in the future?
Doesn't that mean that the condensation of three soul cores must be completed at the critical moment of death every time?
Chen Ming has been thinking about this question for three days.
Today he had the answer.
"Concentrate!"
"Soul power and soul core can also be transformed into soul bones."
Chen Ming focused his attention and started to condense his dual soul cores.
Because they condense at the same time, there is no difference in size, and they can grow at the same time while maintaining balance.
"After I have a soul power soul core, the moment I die, I don't need to solidify all the soul power in my body into soul bones. What I need is to transform the existing soul core into soul bones."
"Soul cores are resurrection coins. When I die once, my soul core can be transformed into soul bones. After my flesh and blood are reshaped, I can condense soul cores again, transform again after death, and reshape again."
"."
In the Dragon Valley, the wind was blowing and the clouds were surging. Two whirlpools appeared in the air at the same time. There were shadows in the two whirlpools, which were the soul martial soul and the body martial soul.
The two phantoms quickly overlapped to form a golden body.
The two vortices also overlap.
The fluctuations of mental power and soul power tend to become one, completing the same frequency resonance.
The Body soul masters who were practicing in the small world all stopped practicing and came to watch.
Lei Zhen sighed, "It was just like that last time. I was suddenly locked onto by eight level nine fixed-type soul guide shells."
The others' eyes instantly focused on him.
Lei Zhen smiled awkwardly and said, "I definitely won't do that this time."
At this moment, Chen Ming was focused and concentrated on condensing the two soul cores.
In his sea of spiritual energy, endless spiritual power gathered and formed a huge illusory vortex above his sea of spiritual energy. The spiritual power in the vortex was highly compressed, and in this highly compressed spiritual power, there was a portal looming, and it seemed that there was another world in the portal.
In the middle dantian, soul power condensed, and a phoenix shadow appeared on the soul core. Then, a blood force that emerged from nowhere merged into it, revealing the phantom of a unicorn.
In the outside world, various strange phenomena began to appear around Fatian Xiangdi. First, a portal appeared behind his head, with all kinds of light and shadow changing in the portal. Next, there were the phantoms of phoenix and unicorn around his body.
The two shadows reflected each other, and seemed to have attracted the attention of the dragons in the Dragon Valley.
A dragon roar resounded throughout the entire small world, and thousands of dragons gathered together a blood force and merged into Chen Ming's body.
Dragon, phoenix, and unicorn.
The three bloodlines gathered together and poured into Chen Ming's chest. A vortex and the three divine beasts condensed together.
The light gate behind Chen Ming also shrank, and the light and shadows became clearer. At the same time, a Soul-Suppressing monument and a soul-nourishing coffin appeared in it, and merged into the brow of Fa Tian Xiang Di, turning into another vortex.
Two whirlpools emerged, and the condensation of the soul core was coming to an end.
Three days later.
A powerful soul force erupted in the Dragon Valley.
"Dual soul cores, this feels so powerful."
Chen Ming clenched his hands and felt that the space was under his control.
Even without the effect of the fourth soul skill, he can still grasp the space. This is the ability of the dual soul cores.
Not only that, Chen Ming entered the state of harmony of all things, and the characteristics of his two soul cores were harmonized.
His soul power directly possessed the dual characteristics and strength that can only be achieved by the collision of two soul cores, that is, the complementary nature of yin and yang.
"Not only that, I can also possess the resonance characteristics of the isotopic resonance dual soul core."
"It's much more powerful than the dual soul cores in my previous lives. I don't know what level of Super Douluo I can fight against now."
Chen Ming felt the soul power surging in his body and felt eager to try.
The improvement brought by the dual soul cores is really huge. Chen Ming's own foundation is now close to that of a regular Super Douluo. At the same time, he possesses dual soul cores, so his strength is already close to the limit.
If there is something lacking, it is basic strength.
In addition to the soul core, he also needs to improve his own foundation to the extreme standard, so that even if he is not an Ultimate Douluo, he can still possess extreme combat power.
"No hurry, no hurry, let me fuse the seventh soul ring first."
After saying something to Lei Zhen and the others, Chen Ming went into seclusion again.
Not long after he entered seclusion, Du Bu Si appeared in the Dragon Valley.
As early as when Chen Ming had just condensed his soul core, someone went to Nanyuan Province to inform Du Busi of the situation.
Du Bu Si was originally in seclusion, but when he heard that Chen Ming might be condensing a dual soul core, he was immediately shocked and came out and rushed over.
Watching Chen Ming fusing his seventh soul ring, he did not interrupt Chen Ming to ask about the dual soul cores.
At this moment, Chen Ming sat cross-legged, and circles of soul rings spread out of his body.
Black, black, red, black, red, red.
When the six spirit rings appeared, all the disciples of the Body Sect held their breath.
Even though they had seen it countless times, they still couldn't help but feel awe when such a spirit ring appeared.
Du Bu Si's eyes trembled, and soon focused on Chen Ming's second soul ring, because this soul ring was changing, quickly turning into blood red.
That's right, Chen Ming's second soul ring broke through and became a hundred thousand year soul ring!
Now Chen Ming's soul rings have turned into black, red, red, black, red, which is now two black and four red.
In addition to these six soul rings, a brand new blood-red soul ring is still condensing.
