The Blue Silver Network can monitor everything inside and outside of Spirit City, but the vast amount of information is too overwhelming for Tang San to process entirely. Therefore, he only probes specific situations.
He was unaware of the arrival of the two transmigrators.
But even if he had known, he wouldn't have paid much attention. After all, without special skills beyond talent and strength, even transmigrators have to work to earn a living here.
"Finally, I've reached level seventy."
Sensing the breakthrough in his soul power level, Tang San felt completely rejuvenated, as if something was about to burst forth from his Blue Silver Emperor.
That would be the Blue Silver Domain!
However, Tang San suppressed it, planning to influence its evolution into a more primordial Life Domain with a touch of creation essence when he condensed his seventh soul ring.
"Congratulations." At that moment, Hu Liena arrived. Seeing Tang San break through his soul power level in the forging room, she couldn't help but feel envious. Despite the assistance of the Wisdom and Spirit Soul Imprint Throne, which sped up the refinement of world energy, she had only reached level sixty-seven in the past three years. She still needed about a year to break through to level seventy and become a Soul Saint.
Of course, this was partly because she spent more time handling affairs than training.
Xie Yue and Yan currently had soul power levels of sixty-three and sixty-two, respectively.
At the Soul Emperor level, each level required significantly more soul power. Without additional opportunities, the Golden Generation typically needed around ten years to break through to the Soul Saint level.
Without the help of the Wisdom and Spirit Soul Imprint Throne, even with special care from Bibi Dong, Hu Liena would, at most, reach the quasi-Soul Douluo level within ten years.
Now, however, she had the potential to become a Titled Douluo within ten years.
"This training speed is acceptable, I suppose," Tang San said with a faint smile, then asked, "Did you come here for something? The second Soul Imprint Throne still needs some time to complete, and this one isn't for you."
"It's not that," Hu Liena shook her head and then explained her purpose. "You created a technique called 'Essence Body Cultivation.' The teacher said I need to ask you for permission to learn it."
Bibi Dong was quite strict about the rules, even though she had already given the 'Essence Body Cultivation' to her...
With a thought, Tang San agreed to let Hu Liena practice 'Essence Body Cultivation' and added, "Tell the Pope that the cultivation of 'Essence Body Cultivation' can be made available to all Spirit Hall members, but it must be exchanged for merit or purchased with money. You can decide on the specific amounts."
As for the potential outcomes of others learning it?
Tang San didn't mind.
He had better techniques anyway, and if others could develop different aspects from it, he could learn from them and continue to innovate.
One person's wisdom cannot compare to the inspiration of many.
"You're too unconcerned about your self-created soul skills," Hu Liena said, somewhat speechless. "Fine, I'll set a high price and discuss with the Pope. Any merit points or gold soul coins from future exchanges will be credited to your account, just like the royalties from your published papers."
"Thank you," Tang San smiled, stretched, and casually moved the unfinished Soul Imprint Throne aside, preparing to freshen up and then obtain his seventh soul ring.
"You're just leaving the Soul Imprint Throne like that?" Hu Liena's eye twitched. Anyone unaware might think it was just an ordinary chair frame.
"Do you know how much the Soul Imprint Belt hanging from your waist weighs?" Tang San asked.
"Feels like less than a hundred grams?" Hu Liena said, testing its weight.
"Two taels? That's wishful thinking. Its actual weight is thirty-six thousand jin," Tang San revealed. "The reason you don't feel its weight is because this semi-divine artifact has acknowledged you as its master, connecting with your martial soul. Just like top-tier tool martial souls, which can weigh over a hundred thousand jin, the weight doesn't burden the wielder; it feels more like a thousand jin at most."
As Bibi Dong's disciple, Hu Liena naturally understood this concept but hadn't realized the soul imprint belt around her waist had a similar effect.
Semi-divine artifacts, even with the "semi" prefix, are still divine artifacts.
"No one in the current era surpasses your forging skills, I suppose?" Hu Liena remarked, impressed.
"The Wisdom and Spirit Soul Imprint Throne wasn't created by me alone. It also involved Guang Ling. Without her understanding and integration of soul tool patterns, I couldn't have completed such a massive project alone," Tang San explained, leaving the forging room. Seeing Hu Liena still following him, he joked, "What? I'm going to take a bath. Are you coming too?"
Hu Liena blushed and quickly waved her hands, "No, that's not... I mean, I'm leaving the same way... You're quite humorous. Do you say this to every pretty girl?"
"Only to the familiar pretty girls," Tang San chuckled, eventually escorting Hu Liena out of the Soul Weapon Manor before heading to the bathroom to bathe. As he soaked in the tub, Huo Wu barged in, announcing her intention to conduct a study on blood and qi.
Helplessly, Tang San activated his blood and qi to assist Huo Wu, linking and harmonizing their energies for a perfect cycle. "Why are you back so early?" he asked.
"I missed you."
Already flushed from excitement, Huo Wu's face turned even redder as she engaged in a clash of blood and qi with Tang San, whispering, "I came to reward you... Today, while controlling gravity to fuse light and fire elements to refine metals, my soul power broke through to level sixty-eight."
"Double the joy, then. My soul power has reached level seventy," Tang San replied, accelerating the circulation of his blood and qi, causing his bones, muscles, and organs to resonate, helping Huo Wu reach the peak state of blood and qi cultivation...
After they finished bathing, both emerged from the bathroom refreshed, only to find Xiao Wu waiting outside with a resentful look and a cold smile, "Heh, you two had fun all afternoon, huh? Huo Wu, I didn't expect you to be so greedy, hogging him all to yourself. No turn for you tonight."
"That's not fair. Besides, doesn't Tang San always take care of you first? Don't be jealous," Huo Wu reasoned with Xiao Wu, eventually calming her non-existent anger. Xiao Wu then shared that her soul power had also reached level seventy.
"Tang San, what's your soul power level now?" Xiao Wu asked, blinking, "Could it be you reached seventy too and celebrated with Huo Wu?"
"It was Huo Wu who came to me... Ahem, I also reached level seventy. Looks like our training pace is the same," Tang San replied, taking out a wooden box from his storage wristband. Inside was a crystal-clear, blood-red ginseng, smooth and without any wrinkles, resembling a carrot.
This was the Crystal Carrot he had bought from a pharmacy in Wuhun City. After years of infusing it with the Blue Silver Emperor's life force, it had reached the ten-thousand-year level.
To Tang San's surprise, the Crystal Carrot hadn't developed sentience. Instead, its leaves bloomed and bore seeds. According to Wu Lin and Wu Tong, even at the ten-thousand-year level, the carrot couldn't develop sentience for unknown reasons...
Tang San speculated it might be related to its ability to bestow spatial powers to rabbit-type soul masters. Therefore, he didn't need to treat it like the plants around the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
"Here, take this before condensing your seventh soul ring. It will enhance your spatial essence."
"I'll reward you with a true soul bone tonight!"
Xiao Wu quickly kissed Tang San on the lips, took the Crystal Carrot, and stored it in her white jade belt to consume it while condensing her soul ring, maximizing its effect to awaken a spatial domain.
