Chapter 217 Evolution of the Soul-Breaking Spear.
"A weapon spirit linked to the spiritual sea, that's quite interesting," Ilex commented.
Wu Xuan continued, "In the past, the Soul-Breaking Spear, a traditional weapon spirit in our family, could resonate with a Soul Master after they reached the Soul Emperor stage. After breaking through to the Soul Saint stage, the Soul-Breaking Spear could condense its innate abilities into a talent soul ring, thus allowing the wielder of the Soul-Breaking Spear to possess strength comparable to a Soul Douluo at the Soul Saint stage. However, I didn't have this realization after breaking through to the Soul Emperor stage. Perhaps this is because the mutated weapon spirit wasn't fully mutated."
Wu Xuan sounded slightly disappointed, after all, the Soul-Breaking Spear was the only top-tier weapon spirit in the entire history of Soul Masters to possess talent soul rings on a large scale.
"Young friend, don't be disappointed. The deal I'm about to make with you is precisely related to your second weapon spirit," Ilex said with a smile, his divine sense detaching from Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea.
"Senior, please explain!" Wu Xuan stood up and clasped his hands in greeting.
Electrolux detached from Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, and Huo Yuhao naturally regained consciousness. Huo Yuhao stared in astonishment at the unfamiliar man chatting casually with Electrolux.
Electrolux scrutinized Wu Xuan for a long time before saying, "In my opinion, your Soul-Breaking Spear, which is deeply bound to your spiritual sea, hasn't undergone a true transformation. The reason for this might be attributed to your twin martial souls."
"The problem is with your twin martial souls?" Wu Xuan frowned immediately.
"That's right. Based on my understanding of martial souls in your world, twin martial souls must be of similar quality to meet the conditions for twinning. At that time, your body probably couldn't withstand the twinning of two such powerful martial souls. Therefore, your wind element martial soul didn't reach its peak, and naturally, the Soul-Breaking Spear didn't complete its true transformation. If your martial souls weren't twinned but appeared as independent entities, then either of your martial souls would be complete upon awakening, requiring no further evolution," Electrolux explained slowly.
"Now that my Wind Element Martial Soul has transformed into its ultimate attribute, can the Soul-Breaking Spear also achieve that?" Wu Xuan stopped speaking at the end and looked at Ilex.
"That's right! And the opportunity for that transformation lies in the piece of Life Gold you once obtained; that's the only opportunity." Ilex directly stated his purpose.
"Please help me, senior. I will do my best to meet any conditions you require." Wu Xuan bowed.
"First, summon your Martial Soul and the carving knife forged from Life Gold. I need to assess the price I will have to pay this time." Ilex shook his head slightly. Wu Xuan nodded, a silver light flashing in his palm. The next moment, the Soul-Breaking Spear appeared in his hand. Then, a vertical eye of emerald green opened instantly between his brows. Immediately afterward, a beam of emerald light flew out from the vertical eye between Wu Xuan's brows and hovered in front of him.
It was a carving knife entirely emerald green, its aura shimmering and full of life.
Huo Yuhao, who had been relegated to the background and had been completely invisible, suddenly stood up, staring incredulously at the familiar spear. He exclaimed, "You are... Wu Xuan?"
Ignoring Huo Yuhao's shock, Wu Xuan said calmly, "It's me. Long time no see, Huo Yuhao."
"You...you...you, how did you end up in the Sun Moon Empire, and even know Elder Yi?" Huo Yuhao was astonished.
"It's a long story. We'll talk about that later. Elder Yi and I have important business to attend to today," Wu Xuan said, shaking his head slightly.
Huo Yuhao looked at Wu Xuan with suspicion. He now strongly suspected that Wu Xuan was also involved in the theft of Mingde Hall. After all, the Body Sect's target was a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo; why would they steal so many soul tools? Moreover, Elder Yi had told him that he had been rescued from the basement, and that he was making a deal with that person today.
Electrolux carefully examined the Soul-Shattering Spear and the Life Gold Carving Knife before him. After a long while, he looked at Wu Xuan and slowly shook his head, saying, "Young friend, the power I can currently mobilize may not be enough to officially complete that ritual."
"Then is there any way for you, senior, to quickly recover your power?" Wu Xuan asked anxiously. He naturally didn't want to miss this hard-won opportunity.
"There is a way, of course, but the price is a portion of the Life Gold, which is far too great," Electrolux said, shaking his head slowly.
"It's alright. As long as my Soul-Shattering Spear can complete its true transformation, I'll give you the rest of the carving knife. In my opinion, no matter how good something is, if it can't become your own power, then it's worthless," Wu Xuan said, looking at Electrolux with a firm gaze.
"Haha! I didn't expect that I wouldn't see things as clearly as this little fellow. Young friend, I admire you somewhat," Electrolux suddenly chuckled.
"Then I'll trouble you with the rest, senior," Wu Xuan bowed, then tossed out a level eight aura-isolating soul tool with one hand, which spread out and enveloped the entire private room.
"Young friend, now you only need to open your sea of consciousness, and leave everything else to me," Electrolux said, holding up the golden spirit in one hand.
Wu Xuan nodded and immediately opened his sea of consciousness. Wu Xuan trusted Electrolux's character; he wouldn't have agreed so quickly to anyone else.
Electrolux floated to Wu Xuan's side, his right hand grasping at the air. Wu Xuan felt a momentary dizziness, and the next instant, his vast sea of consciousness seemed to boil and surge, countless golden points of light condensing into starlight-like brilliance that converged towards Electrolux.
A slender golden staff gradually took shape.
With the staff in hand, Electrolux's aura instantly changed, an indescribable holiness and nobility making him seem like a god descending.
A deep chanting sounded, and profound words came from Electrolux's mouth. At first, his voice was very low, but gradually, it began to echo in Wu Xuan's ears.
Wu Xuan felt his mental energy being consumed rapidly, but it remained within his tolerance level throughout, without the slightest discomfort.
Under Huo Yuhao's astonished gaze, the Life Gold in Elder Yi's hand slowly softened, then transformed into a thick liquid.
Elder Yi's voice remained low and deep throughout, as the thick liquid Life Gold slowly approached the end of the Soul-Breaking Spear's blade. At this moment, Wu Xuan understood what Elder Yi was doing: he wanted to embed the Life Gold into the empty space on the back of the purple crystal.
The golden staff began to wave in Ilex's hand, a dazzling, crystal-clear golden light radiating from its tip, and strange runes began to emerge.
Each mysterious rune that appeared would immediately float towards the Soul-Breaking Spear, imprinting itself on the empty space at the end of its blade. As the first rune faded and completely merged into the Soul-Breaking Spear, the second rune would condense and fly away to merge as well. The entire process was as smooth as flowing water.
