Chapter 194 Can we create soul spirits? Electrox: Yes!
The air by the cold pool trembled at the sound of Du Busi's laughter.
He looked at Liu Yuan with an arrogant determination in his eyes, and with a wave of his hand, emerald green soul power swirled around him.
"Let's go! Now that we've set our goal, I'll take you there."
"Although the Hidden Beast is rare, with me here, I will definitely be able to find it for you!"
After saying that, Du Bu Si was about to pull Liu Yuan up.
"Master, wait a moment."
Liu Yuan reached out to stop him, his expression calm.
"I remember that Senior Brother Aotian also broke through to level 59 two months ago. In addition, he absorbed that 100,000-year-old power-type left arm bone. He should be at the critical moment of taking the final step now."
"If nothing unexpected happens, he will soon achieve his goal. Why don't we wait for him to join us?"
"It's good that the three of us, master and disciples, can go together so we can look out for each other."
Upon hearing this, Du Busi stopped his impatient actions.
He pondered for a moment, a thoughtful look flashing in his emerald green double pupils, then nodded:
"You've thought this through quite thoroughly."
"I know Long Aotian's temperament. Once you provoke him, he will definitely not dawdle."
"Alright, in that case, let's wait for him a little longer."
"The simultaneous development of two cores is indeed a once-in-a-century spectacle for our Body Sect."
Du Busi patted Liu Yuan on the shoulder, signaling him to stabilize his cultivation level first. Then, with a flicker, he transformed into a streak of green light and returned to the main hall.
Liu Yuan watched Du Busi's departing figure, his eyelids slightly lowered, and a profound light flashed in his pair of purple-gold double pupils.
He sat down cross-legged again, but instead of cultivating his soul power, he sank his consciousness into the depths of his spiritual sea.
In that vast, surging ocean of purple-gold spiritual energy, a pure gray sphere of light floated silently.
"Elder Yi, are you there?" Liu Yuan called out in his mind.
The gray orb trembled slightly, and Electrolux's aged yet kind figure slowly emerged.
After this period of nurturing, although the former undead scourge is still weak, its soul has become much more stable.
"Child, you've come to see me because of that sixth spirit ring?"
Electrolux stroked his beard and smiled, a hint of approval in his eyes.
He had seen all of Liu Yuan's progress these days.
Liu Yuan nodded and said, "Exactly. Elder Yi, I was just thinking about a question about the relationship between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts."
"To gain power, modern Soul Masters must hunt Soul Beasts and extract their souls and Soul Power to condense them into Soul Rings."
"Although this method is direct, it is too cruel to soul beasts. After a soul beast dies, the performance of its talent and ability depends entirely on the soul master's own understanding, which will inevitably be greatly reduced."
Electrox's expression shifted: "What are you trying to say?"
Liu Yuan's gaze sharpened: "I wonder if we could use your supreme application of the laws of the soul to change this short-sighted approach when acquiring soul rings?"
"I want to try to transform the soul beast into another life form—abandoning its decaying physical body and merging with me in the form of a soul."
"In this state, soul beasts can retain their intelligence and combat experience."
"When I need to use a soul skill, it will autonomously control the release of the skill with the help of my soul power. This not only makes it more powerful, but also allows it to achieve absolute spiritual harmony with me."
Electrolux fell into deep thought.
Countless complex soul runes continuously evolved in his eyes, which seemed to see through life and death.
"Retain intelligence, transform the physical body into a spirit, and reside in the sea of consciousness..."
Electrolux murmured softly, a look of inquiry flashing in his eyes.
"Brilliant! Although this idea is bold, it works logically according to the laws of the soul."
"This is not just the bestowal of power, but the forging of a contract. My child, if you succeed, this may open up a completely new path."
Liu Yuan did not directly utter the words "soul spirit," but he knew that this model based on soul contracts was the key to changing the landscape of the continent.
"Elder Yi, is this move dangerous?" Liu Yuan asked.
Electrolux laughed heartily: "With me here, this level of soul transformation is not difficult."
"As long as the soul beast is willing, or has no choice but to obey under extreme suppression, I am confident that I can keep it by your side in this form."
"Since you're about to obtain your sixth spirit ring, let's give that 'Hidden Beast' a try."
"Alright, then I'll leave it to you, Elder Yi." Liu Yuan bowed respectfully.
...
In the days that followed, the back mountain of the Body Sect remained peaceful, but beneath this tranquility lay the seeds of an impending catastrophe.
About a month later, one morning, a deafening sound came from the direction of the side garden of the main hall. Immediately afterwards, a dark golden pillar of light rose from the ground, a spatial tremor brought about by extreme power.
Long Aotian has broken through.
Liu Yuan and Du Busi appeared at almost the same time outside Long Aotian's secret room.
When Long Aotian pushed open the door, his already imposing body seemed to grow even taller, and the dark gold patterns on his left arm flowed faintly. Below the Soul Saint level, in terms of physical strength alone, probably no one could surpass him.
"Senior brother, congratulations." Liu Yuan stepped forward with a smile.
Long Aotian looked at Liu Yuan, his fighting spirit still burning, but there was more of a tacit understanding between fellow disciples: "Junior brother, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I've reached level 60 too."
Poison Immortal walked over laughing, putting his arms around both of their shoulders: "Good! Today I've brought out two of the future of our Body Sect!"
"Now that everything is ready, let's not waste a moment."
"Long Aotian, your target is the power-type ferocious beast deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, and Liu Yuan's target is the Hidden Beast. Let's go!"
Without further ado, Poison Undying transformed into a terrifying streak of light once more.
This time, however, he carried one person on each hand and sped across the clouds at full speed, so fast that even the mountains and rivers below became blurred lines.
In less than two days, the surrounding climate began to become humid and filled with a wild atmosphere.
On the distant horizon, an endless expanse of lush green forest comes into view, like an ancient behemoth lying across the land.
We've arrived at the Starry Sky Forest.
Poison Immortal landed with the two on a high hill at the edge of the forest. He withdrew his soul power, his gaze sweeping over the dense jungle below, a rare solemnity appearing on his face.
"You know the rules here. The deeper you go, the worse the tempers of those old monsters become." Du Busi looked at Liu Yuan and Long Aotian. "Aotian, your soul beast is easier to find, but Liu Yuan, your Shadow-Breaking Beast likes to stay in the crevices between shadows and void. From now on, we have to proceed with caution."
Liu Yuan slightly unfurled the giant amethyst wings on his back, and the purple-gold divine light in his three pupils flickered. He gazed at the primeval forest in front of him, which seemed to devour light, and said in a low voice, "Let's go. My sixth soul ring is inside."
Three figures leaped down and disappeared into the dark and deep Starry Sky Forest.
