"That's right, there are other Spirit Master groups outside of Douluo Continent," Chrysanthemum Douluo said.
"For example, Sea God Island is actually a huge island inhabited by a group of Sea Spirit Masters. There are also Sea Spirit Masters scattered across various islands in the ocean. Although the number of Spirit Masters on each island is not large, the entire ocean is four times the area of the Continent. When you add up the Spirit Masters on each island, their number can reach half of Douluo Continent's total."
The ocean is four times the size of the land?
Su Wen pondered, wondering if this statement includes Sun-Moon Continent.
It should include Sun-Moon Continent. Otherwise, if Sun-Moon Continent is not included, then the land-to-ocean ratio of the entire Douluo Star would be just 1 to 2?
Then where does the deep-sea concept come from?
When the two continents merge in the future, one could explore to the deepest part of the ocean by only exploring the width of one continent?
Moreover, Su Wen had also noticed Chrysanthemum Douluo's repeated references to "Continent."
The ocean area is four times that of the continent, and the number of Sea Spirit Masters reaches half of Douluo Continent's total, rather than half of all Spirit Masters on the Continent.
Clearly, Sun-Moon Continent is included in Spirit Hall's statistics.
However, it is puzzling why Spirit Hall has not established its own influence on Sun-Moon Continent, nor linked Sun-Moon Continent with Douluo Continent, and instead has hidden much of the information.
Su Wen didn't think too much about it, as he would soon learn this information.
"In the depths of the ocean, there is another continent slightly smaller than our Douluo Continent, called Sun-Moon Continent. Similar to Douluo Continent, Spirit Masters there are also noble. However, there is a higher group within the Spirit Masters, known as Spirit Engineer."
Chrysanthemum Douluo slowly explained the existence of Sun-Moon Continent.
However, Su Wen actually did not need him to explain the existence of Sun-Moon Continent; he was more concerned about the situation on Sun-Moon Continent.
"Spirit Engineers?"
"Yes, Sun-Moon Continent has inherited soul-guiding technology and has not lost it like we have. Even with the inheritance of soul-guiding technology, the production of Spirit Tools is not something every Spirit Master can master. Those who can master the production of Spirit Tools are known as Spirit Engineers."
"Spirit Engineers are considered the noblest profession there because Spirit Tools have been developed to a peak. Even a Titled Douluo, with the support of their peak Spirit Tools, can fight above their level, and the effect is even comparable to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone."
Su Wen was taken aback.
"Peak Spirit Tool? What level of Spirit Tool is that?"
Noticing Su Wen's confusion, Chrysanthemum Douluo explained, "Spirit Tools on that continent are classified into Low-Level Spirit Tools, Mid-Level Spirit Tools, High-Level Spirit Tools, Super Spirit Tools, and Peak Spirit Tools."
"Low-Level Spirit Tools are suitable for Spirit Elders and below. Spirit Masters and Spirit Grand Masters can use them, but only Spirit Elders can fully utilize their power. It's equivalent to an additional Spirit Skill, and it's at the level of a thousand-year-old Spirit Ring!
Mid-Level Spirit Tools are suited for Spirit Ancestors and Spirit Kings. Similarly, Spirit Ancestors can use them, but only Spirit Kings can maximize their effectiveness."
"High-Level Spirit Tools are suitable for Spirit Emperors and Spirit Saints. Super Spirit Tools are designed for Spirit Douluos, or Titled Douluos below level ninety-five who can also exhibit stronger power with this level of Spirit Tool. As for Peak Spirit Tools, they are used by Peak Douluos."
Su Wen's gaze became intense. He looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo and asked seriously, "Has the development of Spirit Tools on that continent reached this level?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo covered his face with his hand and smiled coquettishly. Su Wen found this very disturbing, and the Fighting Heaven Douluo behind him felt an impulse to beat Chrysanthemum Douluo.
"Disgusting!"
"For the Spirit Masters on that continent, such information is naturally confidential. Only Spirit Douluos or Titled Douluos have the opportunity to learn about the existence of Peak Spirit Tools. The creation of such Spirit Tools generally requires the lifelong dedication of a Peak Spirit Engineer, combined with the continuous efforts of later generations to perfect them."
In other words, Peak Spirit Tools do exist, but they are products of multiple generations of improvement. The technology hasn't reached the level where Peak Spirit Tools can be produced casually.
"Even so, the level of Spirit Tools there is still impressive."
"Hehe, Spirit Tools are ultimately external items, not as reliable as a Spirit Master's own abilities," Chrysanthemum Douluo said.
"They excessively pursue Spirit Tools, and Spirit Master cultivation there is often treated as a condition for breaking through to higher-level Spirit Engineers. Apart from Soul Power cultivation, other aspects are a mess, which is why Spirit Tools have a noticeable enhancement on their strength."
"Spirit Hall has had Spirit Masters visit there and experience their Spirit Tools. They can only say that Mid-Level Spirit Tools are okay, but for higher-level Spirit Tools, the enhancement isn't as significant as it is there."
"According to their classification of Spirit Tools, actually, only Spirit Kings can fully utilize Mid-Level Spirit Tools because the core array in them aims to reach the ten-thousand-year level. However, their technology isn't up to par, so it's only theoretical."
The reason why Spirit Kings can still fully utilize their power is because Spirit Kings there rarely obtain ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Rings. Generally, only those with the sixth or seventh rings can get ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Rings.
"Spirit Hall has a deep understanding of that place," Su Wen remarked.
Chrysanthemum Douluo smiled but did not respond to Su Wen's comment.
In fact, surviving the journey across the sea to reach such a distant place requires at least a Spirit Saint-level Spirit Master, and for safety, it's common to have a Titled Douluo stationed there.
Therefore, even if Spirit Hall only contacted Sun-Moon Continent once or twice, a Titled Douluo's abilities would be enough to quickly gather intelligence.
"Lastly, it must be mentioned that while the capabilities of Spirit Tools can be considered additional Spirit Skills, they are not inherently possessed by the Spirit Master. Using them requires practice, and to wield them skillfully, one must invest a tremendous amount of effort, similar to how a Martial Spirit Master of the sword would practice sword techniques. This is clearly unrealistic."
"I have concluded that the Spirit Masters there see a significant increase in strength due to the enhancement of Spirit Tools because they have neglected their own training. The Spirit Masters themselves are too weak."
From Chrysanthemum Douluo's words, Su Wen could sense a hint of disdain.
"Elder Chrysanthemum, have you been there?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo did not speak but did not deny it either.
Su Wen understood.
In that case, it was likely that Chrysanthemum Douluo had at least experienced the Super Spirit Tools.
"Development level is not high, but there is a foundation," Su Wen deduced from this information.
That was enough.
It would significantly advance the development of the Spirit Master World.
And as long as the Spirit Master World benefits, Su Wen would gain more Power of Faith from the Wisdom Palace's research.
This was what mattered most to him.
