Qian Xunji shook his head: “It is not twin spirits.”
He took a deep breath: “What that child awakened is very likely a God-level Spirit!”
The great hall instantly fell into a deathly silence.
A God-level Spirit?
What kind of concept is that?
The only known God-level Spirit on the entire continent is the Seraphim inherited by the Angel clan.
And now, another God-level Spirit has actually appeared?
At this time, Spirit Hall had not yet attacked Sea God Island, and neither Qian Daoliu nor Tang Chen had traveled there, so naturally, they did not know about Bo Saixi, much less the Sea God Spirit.
“Tell me in detail.” Qian Daoliu’s tone became grave.
“The child’s name is Su Mo, and his Spirit is a small, dark red sword.
During the Soul Power test, the ordinary crystal ball shattered directly.
Later, when re-tested with a specially made crystal ball, the result was innate twentieth-level Soul Power!”
Several Worship Elders looked at each other, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
What does innate twentieth-level Soul Power mean?
It means the child starts with the strength of two spirit rings.
It means he has received the blessing of a God.
It means his Spirit is, in all likelihood, the legendary God-level Spirit.
As Elders of the Hall of Worship, they naturally knew that Gods truly existed.
“What is that sword called?” Qian Daoliu asked.
“Asura Sword.”
“Asura Sword…” Qian Daoliu muttered, repeating it, a look of contemplation flashing in his eyes.
He had lived for over a hundred years and had seen countless Spirits, yet he had never heard of the Asura Sword Spirit.
Seeing Qian Daoliu lost in thought, Qian Xunji paused for a moment before speaking again: “Father, there is one more extremely important matter.”
“Oh?
What matter?” Qian Daoliu gathered his thoughts.
“Su Mo said he once found a torn page in the orphanage library that recorded a method to increase the absorption limit of spirit rings.”
“Increase the spirit ring absorption limit?” Gold Crocodile Douluo raised an eyebrow, his tone filled with obvious skepticism.
“How is this possible?
The spirit ring absorption limit is limited by a Spirit Master’s physique.
After generations of exploration in the Spirit Master’s world, the optimal configuration has long been established.
Even if everyone’s physique has slight differences, they are not that significant.”
He paused, his gaze toward Qian Xunji filled with a hint of dissatisfaction: “You believe the casual words of a six-year-old child?
You are the dignified Supreme Pontiff; how can you be so gullible?”
Gold Crocodile Douluo had deep seniority in Spirit Hall and was the strongest Worship Elder under Qian Daoliu.
He was always straightforward and did not mince words, even with the Supreme Pontiff.
Qian Xunji gave a wry smile: “Uncle Gold Crocodile, I naturally doubted it at first, but when Su Mo spoke, his gaze was clear and his manner was earnest; he did not seem to be spouting nonsense.
Besides, what point would there be for a six-year-old child to make up such a lie?”
“What exactly did he say?” Qian Daoliu asked.
“According to the child, the torn page recorded something called whale glue.” Qian Xunji explained, “By heating it at high temperatures and then consuming and refining it, one can strengthen a Spirit Master’s physique, thereby allowing them to withstand higher-aged spirit rings when absorbing them.”
“Whale glue?” Upon hearing this, the faces of the several Worship Elders turned strange.
They naturally knew what whale glue was.
But they had never heard that the substance could strengthen one’s physique or increase the spirit ring absorption limit.
Qian Daoliu was silent for a moment before speaking slowly: “Ji’er, send people immediately to verify this matter.
Find a few Spirit Masters who are about to obtain spirit rings and test the whale glue.”
“Yes, I will go handle it immediately.” Qian Xunji replied with a bow.
“Also,” Qian Daoliu added, “the two children must be nurtured well, especially the child named Su Mo.
After he returns from obtaining his spirit ring, bring him to the Hall of Worship; I will personally teach him swordsmanship.”
Personally teach him?
Qian Xunji and the several Worship Elders looked at each other, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
Who was Qian Daoliu?
A ninety-ninth-level Limit Douluo, the High Priest of Spirit Hall, and one of the world’s top powerhouses.
His attainments in swordsmanship were unmatched across the entire continent.
In his entire life, he had never personally taught any disciples; he rarely even concerned himself with the cultivation of his own son, Qian Xunji.
Moreover, Qian Daoliu had retired several years ago and ceased to concern himself with worldly affairs.
Yet now, he actually wanted to personally teach a six-year-old child?
“Father…” Qian Xunji was somewhat surprised.
“Say no more.” Qian Daoliu waved his hand, “A God-level Spirit is no small matter.
If his talent is wasted due to improper instruction, that would be a loss for our Spirit Hall.”
He turned around and looked once again at the statue of the Seraphim.
“Since that child has awakened a sword Spirit, it is time for me to find a successor for my skills.
Go now, and verify the matter of the whale glue as soon as possible.”
“Yes.” Qian Xunji said no more and bowed as he retreated.
After leaving the Hall of Worship, Qian Xunji hurried back to the Supreme Pontiff Palace without stopping.
He did not make a scene but secretly summoned several loyal Spirit Masters.
These individuals were all about to obtain spirit rings; their ages and cultivation levels varied, but they all shared one thing in common: absolute loyalty.
Subsequently, he sent people to secretly purchase several pieces of thousand-year whale glue.
Whale glue was not a rare item in this era and was easy to buy on the market.
Qian Xunji specifically chose high-quality ones that were light yellow in color and faintly emitted an amber-like luster.
The entire process was done flawlessly.
When everything was ready, Qian Xunji personally went to a secret chamber.
Inside the secret chamber, the five Spirit Masters sat upright.
Seeing the Supreme Pontiff arrive in person, they quickly stood up to salute.
“No need for formalities.” Qian Xunji waved his hand and took out the five pieces of whale glue.
The whale glue gleamed with a warm luster under the light, emitting a faint fishy smell.
Qian Xunji’s Soul Power surged, and a ball of golden flame appeared in his palm; it was the Angel flame.
Under the roasting of the flames, the five pieces of whale glue gradually softened and eventually turned into five blobs of viscous liquid.
“Consume it.” Qian Xunji ordered.
The five Spirit Masters did not hesitate in the slightest and swallowed the warm liquid one after another.
Qian Xunji released his Mental Energy, carefully sensing the changes in their bodies.
After a long while, he personally checked their physical fitness, and a flash of brilliance appeared in his eyes.
It improved.
The physical fitness of the five people had actually truly improved to varying degrees!
Although it was not a earth-shattering change, it had truly and definitely improved.
“Good!
Good!” Qian Xunji was overjoyed and immediately took the five people to the Spirit Hunting Forest.
Under his personal witness, the five people hunted their spirit rings separately and began to absorb them.
One hour later, the first Spirit Master opened his eyes, his face full of unbelievable ecstasy: “His Holiness the Pope, this subordinate has succeeded!”
Immediately following, the second, the third…
all five people succeeded.
Although the increased age was not much, with the highest only increasing by a hundred years, that was not the point.
The point was that it was truly effective.
Qian Xunji stood in place, speechless for a long time.
He knew all too well what this meant.
