"How did you get my mother's soul from her?"
To Tang San's surprise, Xiao Wu didn't ask about her mother's resurrection again. Instead, she squinted her eyes, staring intensely at Tang San. Her blood was pulsating faster and more intensely.
"After the Continental Elite Competition, didn't I challenge Bibi Dong? It was then that I asked Brother Electrolux to help me out," Tang San explained, his breath slightly uneven due to Xiao Wu's intense cultivation movements. Nevertheless, he spoke clearly, recounting the events to Xiao Wu.
This was the truth.
"Is Electrolux watching now?" Xiao Wu suddenly paused her cultivation.
"He resides in my upper dantian. To see the outside world, he needs my permission." Although Tang San trusted Electrolux, some privacy was still necessary.
"Hmph!" Xiao Wu snorted, but inside she felt warm. She now understood that Tang San had risked challenging Bibi Dong, using three soul bones as leverage, to extract her mother's soul from Bibi Dong. He had even exposed the powerful secret of "Soul Fusion."
Even if others learned it, they couldn't master it. The internal soul power routes of the soul rings couldn't align perfectly, making it impossible to achieve the powerful effects that Tang San and Xiao Wu could. Success with Soul Fusion itself was uncertain.
But to challenge Bibi Dong for her, to face a Titled Douluo as a Soul King—how could such a man not be dependable?
Moreover, being his woman didn't mean staying at home and avoiding the public. It meant developing their strengths and not letting their individuality be buried.
"Even if it's just a soul, since we have it, let's resurrect her. At least, the memory and soul particles are the same."
Xiao Wu ultimately wished to see her mother again, deciding to deceive herself for once. "If the immortal true spirit is pure and flawless, it can serve as a replaceable core. For us, even after millions or billions of years, we might never fully understand what a true spirit is. It shouldn't affect Mother's normal state."
"Do you really think so?"
Tang San frowned slightly. To him, even if each immortal true spirit was identical, was it truly the same person if the core was changed?
It wasn't just an energy-providing soul guide battery!
On the surface, the three layers of the soul were similar: mental strength corresponded to the effect produced by the soul guide, the soul shell to the guide's external structure and internal patterns, and the core to the energy storage device, or soul guide battery.
But if it were that simple, witnessing the natural disintegration of a soul in the starry world wouldn't have filled him and Electrolux with such deep-seated fear.
However, seeing the determination in Xiao Wu's eyes, Tang San understood something. He then laughed twice and said, "If that's the case, let's resurrect her."
Indeed, why think so much about it?
To consider such matters, they would need millions or billions of years and more research on the immortal true spirit. For now, living in the present was what mattered most.
For those living in the present, memory and emotion were the most important things.
Understanding this, Tang San suddenly felt his mental power become clear, and even his soul seemed to sparkle. The cosmic meditation technique began to operate on its own, drawing in the power of the stars through the ceiling, illuminating his brain like a starry sky, and his blood and soul power started circulating actively.
Tang San subtly entered a profound state once again, perceiving the life activities of each cell within his body. Under the combined influence of his blood, soul power, and spiritual power, his cells were undergoing a transformation, emitting a faint white light from the perspective of his soul.
At that moment, three supreme techniques—Genesis and Annihilation Sutra, Cosmic Meditation Method, and Jade Bone Golden Body Divine Storage Technique—began to operate simultaneously, hinting at a potential fusion.
If successful, Tang San's future cultivation would see a balanced enhancement of his essence, energy, and spirit. Any improvement in one would lead to corresponding advancements in the others.
However, the three techniques didn't fully merge. Instead, they relied on his body's instinctive transformation, though with a slightly higher efficiency than before.
Additionally, Tang San's soul power advanced to level sixty-six. More significantly, he discovered he could actively absorb the energy of the world to replenish his own, achieving a state of inedia.
Living on Qi!
Tang San was thrilled but quickly calmed down. The efficiency of this "inedia" was low, and he still needed to eat regular food to avoid starvation.
At this moment, Tang San realized his next path: to merge the three cultivation techniques into one!
The Genesis and Annihilation Sutra derived from the Mysterious Heaven Skill, modifying the routes to refine heaven and earth energy with his dual martial souls. The Cosmic Meditation Method evolved from the Purple Demon Eye, enhanced with the energy trajectories of the Starry Domain and the celestial patterns within the Star Dou Great Array. The Jade Bone Golden Body Divine Storage originated from the Mysterious Jade Hand, initially tempering bones and later integrating the transformative routes of various immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
The Mysterious Heaven Skill, Mysterious Jade Hand, and Purple Demon Eye all shared a common origin from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, naturally integrating perfectly.
Although Tang San's improved versions—Genesis and Annihilation Sutra, Jade Bone Golden Body Divine Storage Technique, and Cosmic Meditation Method—surpassed their predecessors individually, their harmony was not as seamless as the original techniques.
As for the Free Wind Technique, although it was also refined from Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, it remained merely a footwork method, reliant on soul power, similar to Crane Capture and Dragon Subdue.
"It seems that besides perfecting these three techniques, I need to fuse them according to my body's unique conditions," Tang San reflected.
He saw a bright future ahead, even catching a glimpse of how to imprint all his memories onto his immortal true spirit during his epiphany. Despite not finding the exact location of the immortal true spirit within his soul, he had an inexplicable, profound sense of its presence.
Simultaneously, Xiao Wu, being in perfect harmony with Tang San, also benefited, her soul power rising by half a level to reach sixty-five.
Her cultivation progress had always been second only to Tang San's, and she had been just a step away from sixty-five.
"Third Brother, your vitality seems increasingly abundant, oh~" Xiao Wu exclaimed, thrilled and trembling with excitement from her soul power advancement.
"To solidify your foundation, I've decided to spend the night researching and practicing the way of vitality with you," Tang San said with a mischievous grin, responding to Xiao Wu's enthusiastic outcry.
And thus, they embraced the ensuing upheaval together...
