Within the stone chamber, Lin Feng sat cross-legged and stared at the Mystic Jade Pill in his hand as he took a deep breath.
Tenth-grade martial souls would contain a secret. What secret was that exactly?
"I hope my martial soul can evolve."
Lin Feng's eyes gleamed with hope. After that, he consumed the Mystic Jade Pill and circulated the Immemorial Dragon Elephant Art to refine it.
Very soon, the medicinal potency of the Mystic Jade Pill was refined and began to melt within Lin Feng's body.
Lin Feng discovered that all the medicinal potency of this pill was flowing toward his dantian.
The reason for this was because a cultivator's martial soul resided in his dantian.
The medicinal potency flowed into Lin Feng's devouring martial soul, and at this moment, a shocking transformation occurred in Lin Feng's dantian.
The devouring martial soul actually began to revolve with its own initiative.
The external appearance of Lin Feng's devouring martial soul was a twisting black hole.
At this moment, this black hole was frenziedly revolving around, and all the medicinal potency of the pill was being devoured by it.
"RUMBLE~"
All of a sudden, an explosive bang rang out from within Lin Feng's dantian.
At the next moment, a shocking scene appeared.
In the depths of his dantian, a second black hole actually appeared.
This second black hole was twisted about, and in the depths of it, it seemed to be connected to a mysterious world.
The second black hole was the exact same as his original one.
Both of them contained a terrifying devouring force as well as twisting and distortion force.
This caused Lin Feng to be incomparably shocked. The black hole was his own martial soul—the devouring martial soul. Why would there be a second black hole now?
What made Lin Feng even more shocked was what happened next.
After the second black hole appeared, the third black hole began to manifest as well.
A total of three black holes displaying the structure of '品' had appeared in Lin Feng's dantian.
Moreover, each of them radiated intense devouring might.
"Three devouring black holes." Lin Feng had a dumbfounded look on his face.
"It must be the Mystic Jade Pills."
Earlier, Murong Xue had said that for all tenth-grade martial souls, they had had to contain a huge secret within. His own devouring martial soul was exactly one of the tenth-grade variants. Now, after he had refined the Mystic Jade Pill, his martial soul had multiplied into three black holes.
Evidently, the three devouring black holes were also three devouring martial souls.
This was the reason why Lin Feng was so shocked.
Three mysterious worlds were connected to the end of the black holes.
A total of three devouring martial souls!
"Is this the extreme evolution form of the martial souls?" Lin Feng sensed the devouring martial souls in his dantian.
Martial souls were able to grant great combat strength to cultivators. And when Lin Feng circulated the three devouring martial souls, a power as vast as the oceans erupted forth from his body.
Before his devouring martial soul had evolved, when Lin Feng had activated it, he had been able to unleash a strength of 32,000 jin.
But now that he had three devouring martial souls, when the three martial souls were activated together, Lin Feng could explode forth with a strength of 96,000 jin.
"Haha, I didn't expect that I would have such a miraculous encounter." Lin Feng had a look of wild joy on his face.
Tenth-grade martial souls truly contained huge secrets within them.
His martial soul upon completing the evolution had split into three equal-sized martial souls.
He wondered if it was possible to continue evolving them and gain more devouring martial souls in the future.
…
Lin Feng swiftly adjusted his mental state. After his dantian had been crippled by Bai Yifei, it could be considered that he had died once in the journey of recovering his outstanding talent. Thus, Lin Feng was able to swiftly regain his calm and steady his mental state in many situations.
In addition, Lin Feng also knew that there were innumerable geniuses in the world. But for those who could become true supreme experts, only very few of them could achieve that.
Talent was crucial to cultivation, but it wasn't the most crucial thing.
One's determination, will, and the spirit to never give up were the most crucial elements to attain a high altitude.
Lin Feng walked out from his stone chamber and waited outside the chamber Murong Xue chose to cultivate in.
Six hours later, a joyful cry rang out from the Murong Xue's chamber.
"I really succeeded! My martial soul has completed its transformation and was upgraded to a ninth-grade martial soul!" Murong Xue shouted in her excitement.
After calming down a bit, she glanced at Lin Feng. "Lin Feng, did your martial soul succeed in evolving as well?"
Lin Feng nodded. "My martial soul succeeded in achieving a transformation too."
"Hehe, this time around, the two of us truly obtained heaven-defying fortune. We actually caused our martial soul to evolve!" Murong Xue was extremely happy and excited.
After the two of them tidied up the inventory left behind by Daoist Wuji, they left the Wuji Cave.
In the forest, a gentle wind breezed by.
Lin Feng suddenly turned and hugged Murong Xue, and before Murong Xue could react, he planted a kiss on her tender ruby lips.
Murong Xue was completely stunned.
Very soon, she regained her senses as her beautiful eyes revealed a look of rage.
Upon seeing that she was about to lose her temper, Lin Feng dashed away into the distance.
"Haha, Murong Xue, remember this. From now onward, you are my woman."
Lin Feng winked and ran away, leaving behind only a back view for her to look at. Murong Xue stomped her feet ruthlessly onto the ground. But after Lin Feng left, she gingerly touched her lips and her expression wasn't angry at all. Her face was actually blushed from shyness. She snorted lightly, "Rascal, I didn't say I would beat you up. Why did you run away so quickly?"
When she saw that Lin Feng's back view had completely disappeared, a flash of disappointment couldn't help but flicker in her eyes. Although her period of interaction with Lin Feng was short, Lin Feng's image had been branded deeply in her heart.
Murong Xue didn't stop as well and sped off into the distance. It had been a while since she had snuck out from the Skysaint City. She had to rush back or the elders of her clan would surely go crazy.
Swiftly after, Murong Xue's silhouette also vanished from this forest.
