Long Aoyu stood silently, watching from a subordinate position.
Eleven Titled Douluos were acting simultaneously, and since he could not contribute much to the process of erasing the remnant soul, he only needed to stand aside and wait for the final result.
“Attack!”
Du Busi glanced around at everyone and took the lead in releasing his level 98 spiritual power, which was as thick as a mountain and fiercely domineering.
The remaining ten Elders followed closely behind, and eleven strands of spiritual power converged toward the center of the hall, forming an immense invisible pressure that caused the surrounding air to become faintly distorted.
“Martial Soul, Brain!”
Elder Chen took a step forward, and a pale silver light lit up between his brows.
His Brain Martial Soul appeared behind him, its spiritual fluctuations spreading outward in waves.
His Brain Martial Soul had already undergone a Silver-grade secondary awakening, giving his spiritual power a quality far superior to that of ordinary Spirit Masters of the same rank.
At this moment, Elder Chen used his Brain Martial Soul as the central hub, coordinating the eleven strands of spiritual power and gradually gathering them together.
The originally scattered spiritual forces became increasingly condensed until they transformed into an incomparably sharp spiritual spear that pierced directly into the interior of the natal bead.
“Hum…”
The natal bead emitted a violent tremor.
The miniature vortex at its core suddenly spun wildly, while dark purple evil lightning exploded from the surface of the bead, attempting to block the invasion of the external spiritual power.
The evil lightning contained a strange destructive force, and every time it collided with the spiritual spear, it caused the surrounding space to tremble faintly.
However, under the joint efforts of the eleven Titled Douluos, that layer of evil lightning barrier lasted less than two breaths before being forcibly pierced through by the condensed spiritual spear.
The combined spiritual force drove straight into the depths of the natal bead, directly stabbing toward the remnant soul of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger hidden deep within the bead’s core.
“Roar…”
The remnant soul issued a silent roar.
Black malignant energy surged wildly within the natal bead, attempting to resist the terrifying spiritual force that had invaded its final refuge.
Even though it had already lost its physical body, the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s remnant soul still retained an extremely powerful will to survive.
“Hmph!”
Elder Chen expressionlessly let out a cold snort.
“A dying struggle.”
The spiritual spear suddenly exploded the moment it touched the remnant soul.
Boom!
The terrifying spiritual force erupted within the natal bead, completely surrounding the remnant soul of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
The remnant soul struggled desperately, but it could no longer withstand the combined spiritual pressure of eleven Titled Douluos.
Its struggle vanished instantly.
The remnant soul completely collapsed amidst a barely audible and mournful cry, turning into countless wisps of black smoke that dissipated deep within the core of the natal bead.
Even the final trace of its consciousness was completely erased, leaving behind only the pure origin energy contained within the bead.
Elder Chen slowly withdrew his spiritual power.
His forehead was slightly sweaty, but his eyes remained calm and composed.
“The remnant soul has been completely erased.”
Du Busi reached out and picked up the natal bead, carefully sensing it for a moment.
After confirming that there was no longer any trace of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s remnant consciousness, he nodded in satisfaction.
Then he turned his head to look at Long Aoyu and tossed the bead over.
“Now this thing is yours.”
Long Aoyu reached out and caught the natal bead.
It felt cool and smooth to the touch, and unlike before, it no longer possessed the fierce resistance and malignant aura that had continuously struggled against Du Busi’s spiritual power.
The miniature vortex inside the bead still rotated slowly, but the violent consciousness that had once occupied its core was already completely gone.
What remained was a pure and extremely strange origin power waiting to be refined.
Holding the natal bead, Long Aoyu solemnly bowed toward Du Busi and the ten Elders.
“Thank you, Master.
Thank you, Elders.”
Du Busi waved his hand.
“Cut the hypocrisy.
Grow up sooner and lead the Body Sect toward a new peak.”
“I definitely will!”
Long Aoyu nodded heavily, his expression unusually serious.
Du Busi glanced at the natal bead in Long Aoyu’s palm, then looked toward the ten surrounding Elders.
“Since everyone is here anyway, why not protect you right now and let you absorb it directly?”
His eyes became slightly solemn.
“Leaving this thing on your body is always a variable.
The longer we wait, the greater the possibility of something unexpected happening.
Absorbing it early will bring peace of mind earlier.”
Jinpeng nodded.
“Xiaoyu, the Sect Master is right.
All of us old fellows are here to protect you, so nothing can go wrong.”
The remaining Elders also nodded one after another and echoed their agreement.
With eleven Titled Douluos gathered together, even if the natal bead contained some dangerous residual power, they were confident that they could suppress any unexpected situation. Follow the newest chapters on novelping.com.
Long Aoyu glanced at the natal bead in his palm and then nodded.
“Alright.”
Saying this, he sat cross-legged on the floor, held the natal bead between both palms, closed his eyes, and slowly released his spirit power to wrap around the bead.
Without the interference of the remnant soul, the natal bead no longer resisted him.
His spirit power gradually permeated into the bead, and the moment his consciousness entered its interior, Long Aoyu immediately felt the collision of the six attribute forces hidden inside.
Evil, strength, space, thunder, wind, and time.
The six origin energies had originally been controlled and coordinated by the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger’s consciousness.
Now that its remnant soul had completely disappeared, the six attribute origins had lost their previous suppression and began colliding and repelling one another inside the natal bead.
Violent energy surged endlessly.
Long Aoyu pondered slightly.
He could not forcefully suppress them.
The power contained within the six attribute origins was too strong, and with his current cultivation, forcibly suppressing all six energies would only cause an even more violent rebound.
If he tried to use brute force to merge them together, the natal bead could potentially become unstable, and the backlash might even damage his own meridians.
He needed to make the six attribute origins gradually adapt to his spirit power aura and slowly establish a stable frequency resonance.
After understanding this, Long Aoyu immediately began doing so.
His spirit power slowly seeped into the natal bead, not suppressing the six attribute forces but instead guiding them.
He allowed the six origins to sense his aura and gradually established a connection between them.
Time passed minute by minute.
Deep within the natal bead, the six violent energies gradually began to stabilize under Long Aoyu’s coordination.
The evil origin no longer violently repelled the strength origin, the wind and thunder origins gradually became synchronized, while the space and time origins slowly settled into their respective positions.
The six forces began to rotate slowly around the core of the natal bead, forming a relatively stable cycle.
Then, a strange connection was established.
The natal bead firmly took root within Long Aoyu’s dantian, forming a deep connection with his Body Martial Soul.
Its slow beating was like the existence of a second heart, continuously transmitting a strange and powerful origin energy into his body.
“It’s done!”
Long Aoyu suddenly opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.
With a thought, the natal bead immediately responded.
A thick surge of energy gushed out from his dantian and flowed through his meridians toward his limbs and bones.
Long Aoyu carefully sensed the changes within his body, and his eyes gradually became brighter.
“Initial absorption is complete.
I can currently summon four of the attributes, strength, evil, wind, and thunder, along with the corresponding abilities they contain.
At the same time, the natal bead has strengthened my physical body, and I can unleash the Evil Demon Transformation.”
Evil Demon Transformation was the innate origin transformation technique that came from the natal bead of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
It guided the Evil God’s origin contained within the bead to permeate the physical body, temporarily causing the host’s physical strength and destructive power to rise dramatically.
Furthermore, because the remnant soul of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger had already been completely erased, there was no possibility of the beast soul possessing Long Aoyu or using its consciousness to erode his mind.
The only drawback was the enormous burden that the evil force placed on the physical body.
If the host’s physique was not strong enough, forcibly activating the Evil Demon Transformation could cause serious damage to the body.
Fortunately, Long Aoyu possessed a top-level full-body Body Martial Soul, and his physical foundation was far beyond that of ordinary Spirit Masters of the same rank.
Therefore, he had a natural advantage in bearing this kind of powerful origin force.
“I see.”
Long Aoyu carefully sensed the natal bead and gradually understood more about its power.
“After fusing with the natal bead, as the degree of spirit power and origin fusion continues to increase, other abilities can also be unlocked.”
His eyes flashed with anticipation.
“There are also time, space, and the Life and Death Arena…”
The Life and Death Arena was undoubtedly one of the most terrifying abilities of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
Once completely mastered, it could drag an opponent into a special domain where the battle would be determined according to the rules of life and death.
However, Long Aoyu could currently only sense its existence.
He was still unable to truly activate and control it.
“Not bad.”
Du Busi walked over, looked Long Aoyu over from head to toe, and nodded in satisfaction.
“Properly adapt to the power of this natal bead.
Do not become impatient.
You have only completed the initial fusion, and the power inside it is far from being completely refined.”
“Understood, Master.”
Long Aoyu stood up and grinned.
He could naturally understand what Du Busi meant.
The natal bead was a treasure formed from the origin of a 60,000-year Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, and the power inside it was far too enormous for him to completely master at his current cultivation.
The ten Elders dispersed one after another.
They had received Du Busi’s advance message and had rushed back from different areas to deal with the remnant soul of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
Now that the matter had been settled and Long Aoyu had successfully fused with the natal bead, they prepared to continue searching for the location of the Immortal Herbs.
The Body Sect had already mobilized most of its forces to search the major forests within the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire territories.
Since the Immortal Herbs were incredibly precious and the Sect possessed knowledge from the future, they naturally could not give up the opportunity to obtain them.
Soon, only the master and disciple, Du Busi and Long Aoyu, were left in the council hall.
Du Busi put his hands behind his back, glanced at Long Aoyu, and suddenly spoke.
“Right, what do you plan to do with that little girl?”
Long Aoyu was slightly startled.
He had not expected Du Busi to suddenly bring up Zhu Zhuqing.
“We will talk after she wakes up.”
“Mhm.”
Du Busi nodded.
“As long as you know what you are doing.”
Zhu Zhuqing was a young girl from the Star Luo Empire who was currently being hunted down by people from the Zhu family.
Bringing her back to the Body Sect undoubtedly meant that the Sect had indirectly become involved in the matter.
But so what?
The Body Sect had never been afraid of trouble.
Even if the people pursuing Zhu Zhuqing were from the Nether Duke’s Mansion, and even if the Star Luo Empire’s imperial family eventually became involved, Du Busi did not believe they could force the Body Sect to hand over someone it had already decided to protect.
In his eyes, the Body Sect was already one of the strongest forces on the continent.
As for the Star Luo Empire, its imperial family’s Martial Soul Fusion Skill was indeed formidable and could display combat power comparable to a Titled Douluo under the right circumstances, but that was still not enough to make Du Busi fear them.
The Body Sect currently possessed eleven Titled Douluos, including Du Busi himself, a level 98 Super Douluo.
Even though Spirit Hall remained an even more terrifying existence with a deeper foundation, the Body Sect had absolutely no reason to fear the Star Luo royal family or the Zhu family.
Du Busi had even dared to go to Shrek Academy alone in the future and brazenly confront the powerful figures of the Sea God Pavilion.
Although that was a matter from a completely different era, it also demonstrated the temperament that had always been deeply rooted in the Body Sect.
As Du Busi’s disciple, Long Aoyu’s personality had inherited the same boldness.
He did not treat the Star Luo royal family or the Zhu family as insurmountable threats at all.
…
Long Aoyu came out of the council hall, and the sky was already close to evening.
The warm light of the setting sun fell across the Body Sect’s buildings, stretching long shadows across the stone paths and plaza.
“Yo, you’re back?”
A familiar voice came from the side.
Long Aoyu turned his head and saw Long Aotian crossing his arms and leaning against a stone pillar beside the roadside with a playful expression on his face.
Standing next to him was Wei Na.
Her usually aloof face rarely carried a hint of curiosity, while her silver ribbon fluttered gently in the evening wind.
“I heard you brought a little girl back from outside?”
Wei Na scanned Long Aoyu from head to toe, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
“Not bad.
The iron tree has finally blossomed.”
Long Aoyu’s mouth twitched.
“What do you mean by the iron tree blossoming?
She was severely injured and passed out by the roadside.
Master and I happened to encounter her, so we brought her back to the Sect to heal her injuries.
That’s all.”
“That’s all?”
Long Aotian raised an eyebrow.
“I heard from the people at the Sect that you carried her in your arms all the way back while flying, and you even held her ever so steadily.”
“What if she fell because I didn’t hold her steadily?”
Long Aoyu rolled his eyes.
Wei Na stepped forward by half a step and lightly patted Long Aoyu’s shoulder.
“Alright, alright, I won’t tease you anymore.
But we are going to the dispensary with you to check on her injuries.”
Wei Na blinked, and her curiosity became even more obvious.
“By the way, let’s see what kind of peerless beauty could actually catch your eye.”
Long Aoyu sighed helplessly.
“Are the two of you having too much free time today?”
Long Aotian replied righteously without hesitation.
“Yes.”
Long Aoyu was speechless for a moment before turning around.
“Let’s go, let’s go.”
He walked toward the dispensary, and Long Aotian and Wei Na immediately followed side by side behind him.
The two of them exchanged a glance, their expressions carrying identical auntie smiles and unmistakable melon-eating expressions as they quietly followed Long Aoyu toward the place where Zhu Zhuqing was resting.
