Chapter 66: It's Round?!
To form the second soul core purely out of elemental attributes, all soul power must be extracted.
After absorbing the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's soul ring, Du Qianjue's elemental attributes increased to nine, with each attribute either being ultimate or near-ultimate.
With the enhancement from his first soul core, his total soul power was comparable to a ninety-two or ninety-three level Titled Douluo, even though he was only a seventy-fourth level Soul Sage.
This is the benefit of forming a soul core.
Huo Yuhao's spiritual soul core made his spiritual power surpass most Titled Douluo, and Du Qianjue's soul power core brought his total soul power to the level of a Titled Douluo.
To ensure the purity of the second soul core, Du Qianjue first extracted the pure soul power from the Evil God Orb.
Strands of pure soul power continuously merged into his first soul core, stabilizing and gradually increasing his soul power level.
When the last trace of soul power merged into the first soul core, Du Qianjue's soul power level stabilized at seventy-five.
"We can start," Du Qianjue took a deep breath and began the process of forming his second soul core.
He separated his soul power into pure soul power and pure elemental power.
The pure soul power was compressed into his first soul core, whose rotation speed increased.
This was normal—the more soul power in the core, the more active and powerful it became. But this also meant the first soul core would significantly impact the formation of the second soul core, making it difficult to control.
The difficulty was high, but the potential rewards were immense.
With increased speed, Du Qianjue separated his soul power within an hour, channeling it into the first soul core, which reached its peak rotation, forming a vortex of heaven and earth energy.
"Please create a barrier to isolate me from external energy," Du Qianjue asked Xue Linglong and the others.
They nodded, using their soul power to create a barrier around Du Qianjue.
With external interference isolated, Du Qianjue focused inward.
His meridians only contained pure elemental power, ready to begin forming the second soul core.
Under his control, the elemental power flowed into the Evil God Orb, cleansing it of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's remnants and imprinting his aura.
This process took time, gradually infusing the Evil God Orb with his power and initiating its rotation.
Two vortices, one large and one small, formed inside Du Qianjue.
As the Evil God Orb's aura synchronized with Du Qianjue, its power increased, and its rotation accelerated.
Glancing at the orb in his lower dantian, Du Qianjue couldn't help but exclaim, "Why is it still round?!"
Indeed, the Evil God Orb remained spherical, unlike the usual polygonal or funnel-shaped soul cores, but still functioned like one.
As the orb expanded, the interference between the two soul cores became apparent, causing frequent clashes of opposing energies, which even Du Qianjue's robust body struggled to withstand.
"Pfft!"
Suddenly, the violent energies clashed, injuring Du Qianjue and causing him to spit blood.
"Bi Ji, now! Heal me!" Du Qianjue shouted with closed eyes.
Bi Ji withdrew her soul power from the barrier, leaving Xue Linglong and Di Tian to maintain it, while she concentrated her life force to heal Du Qianjue.
Her wings turned a vibrant emerald, and her hair extended to her ankles, transforming into a green waterfall.
She channeled vast amounts of life force into healing light, rapidly healing Du Qianjue's injuries.
Ice Empress, Earth Demon Bull, Red Dragon, and Thunder Hell Prison Vine also unleashed their essence, infusing their pure power into Du Qianjue.
The original essence transformed into nine elemental powers, flowing into the Evil God Orb, causing it to grow.
The frequency of the soul power clashes increased, but with Bi Ji's healing and the Life Gold's full activation, the synchronization of the two soul cores gradually succeeded, forming a complete energy circuit.
When the second soul core fully formed, the four soul beasts' essences were exhausted, and they fell into a deep sleep, just like Little White did when forming the first soul core.
They would likely sleep for a long time, as the Douluo Continent lacked resources to nourish souls, requiring natural recovery.
Du Qianjue's second soul core was mostly formed, only needing stabilization and absorption.
Xue Linglong and the others stopped their efforts, sat down, and began recovering their energy.
Despite the minimal soul power expenditure, the mental strain was unavoidable, leaving them somewhat fatigued.
