—------------------—
Ye Yulin's martial soul has undergone miraculous changes after being tempered for a long time, as if its deep potential has been stimulated after being tempered thousands of times, and the power of the starry sky absorbed has increased significantly.
High in the sky, Xu Xiaoyun and Kong Deming showed surprise on their faces, which was then replaced by full joy.
Before today, Xu Xiaoyun's idea was to give it a try, and Kong Deming simply wanted to strengthen this little disciple who had set his sights on him.
I never expected that this method would actually work!
On the deck, Xue Di's blue pupils were deeply shocked, as if she had never expected that human beings' research capabilities had become so powerful.
If everyone's martial spirit can evolve, how powerful will humans become in the long run? Meng Hongchen and Xu Sanshi looked surprised, while Xu Tianxi looked very strange.
If everyone hadn't joined the sea-jumping team, he really wouldn't have known that Senior Brother Ye Yulin's martial soul was the Star Saint Sword, which sounded like a strong attack-type martial soul.
More importantly, if he remembered correctly, among the Shrek Seven Devils ten thousand years later, there seemed to be a woman named Ye whose martial soul was the Star God Sword that was mutated from the Star Saint Sword.
So Ye Xinglan's ancestor ten thousand years later is you, Ye Yulin, right?
But how did you manage to turn a powerful attack-type martial soul like the Star Saint Sword into an auxiliary energy-supplying martial soul, and the starry sky soul guides you developed are mostly remote?
Sure enough, in the world of soul guides, martial souls are generally not very meaningful, and Liao Mengkai is considered a minority among the minority.
If he knew that ten thousand years later there would be such a descendant who could play with the Star God Sword in a variety of ways, I wonder what he, the ancestor, would think.
"Hahahaha...ah, I did it! I did it! Master Kong, please pull me up!"
The martial soul successfully evolved benignly, and Ye Yulin's fatigue and pain seemed to disappear. He called out loudly to Kong Deming to save him.
Kong Deming's eyes were filled with smiles, and his words were merciless: "As a Titled Douluo, don't you even have the strength to come up on your own? You are not as good as your junior brother."
Ye Yulin was stunned when he heard that, and glanced at Xu Tianxi who was slowly recovering on the deck. His eyes fixed, and he used his sword as a raft and paddled the Tyrant Sea Urchin closer to the soul guide ship.
"Junior brother, I'm here. For the sake of our fellow disciples, please give me a hand."
"Pa~!"
The sound of someone slapping his forehead was heard. Ye Yulin's move was really hard to comment on.
"No wonder you all can't break through to Super Douluo. It turns out that you don't take your martial spirit seriously at all..."
The corners of Xu Tianxi's mouth twitched constantly. If he used the top sword martial spirit as a raft in the original Three Kingdoms, no matter how talented he was, he would be scolded to death.
Looking at Meng Hongchen helplessly, Xu Tianxi sighed: "Senior sister, you can do whatever you want. I don't have the strength to pull him up."
"Easy."
Meng Hongchen's eyes flashed slightly, and he threw out a seventh-level soul guide light net, covering Ye Yulin.
With a strong pull, Ye Yulin transformed into a sky-high swordsman and flew onto the deck, shaking his head.
After a period of close contact with the ground, Ye Yulin simply stopped moving. He dragged his tired body, threw away his shirt, took out his quilt, and fell asleep on the deck.
Xu Tianxi cast a speechless look at the guy, then immediately stood up and sat cross-legged, closing his eyes and concentrating, entering into meditation in this optimal state of practice, and his heavy breathing gradually calmed down.
Over the past half month, he has been experiencing life-and-death tests under the sea. Although he is tired, he has no regrets, and his strength is improving rapidly.
Especially after he started fighting the sea soul beasts under extreme conditions, he had to calm his brain to a very scary level in times of crisis. He had to calmly deal with the siege while squeezing out his potential, striving to inflict the greatest damage to the enemy with the least amount of force.
Every time at that time, he would play the Xue Di's dance in his mind and realize the Xue Di's unity of man and nature through practice.
Now, he felt that he was just one step away from achieving the state of unity between man and nature. He only needed an opportunity to master it.
The efficiency of the spiritual soul power vortex under the huge force is also very rapid, far exceeding normal practice. This is a potential that can only be forcibly stimulated in a life-and-death crisis.
Although the pain of suffocation, high pressure, and life-and-death struggle is unforgettable, the increased strength brought by the remaining life after death makes people feel more at ease; the soul power is improved as it condenses, and the mental strength seems to be tempered into steel, and even the deep-seated Xuanwu blood and destructive aura in the body appear from time to time.
During this period, Xu Tianxi did not use the Dark Gold Basalt Shield, but he clearly felt that his compatibility with this martial soul had become higher, as if it was weightless when he swung it, and he could make it block in front of him with just a thought.
He asked Xu Xiaoyun, Xue Di, Bing Di, and even Alex about this situation, and the answers he got were that the bloodline was being activated, which manifested in the constant evolution and expression of the martial spirit.
"I have never used the Dark Gold Basalt Shield. Maybe I can give it a try after some time..."
Xu Tianxi made up his mind to use the Dark Gold Basalt Shield to fight with a strong enemy when he encountered one.
…
Time flies quickly on the sea.
On the eighteenth day of the training, Ba Xin and Golden Hawksbill Turtle, who were bored of staying in the living soul guide, asked to come out to keep watch and never go back.
On the thirty-third day of training, Xu Fu, who was struggling to hold on, let out a long roar of life at the bottom of the sea, defeated the ten thousand year old soul beast, and soared into the sky.
Xu Sanshi clearly saw a small black snake appear on his father's Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield, which was the symbol of the Black Tortoise Shield; his martial soul finally awakened for the second time and possessed the Black Tortoise Domain.
Upon hearing the good news, Xu Sanshi wanted to find someone to share it with, but then he remembered that Xu Tianxi was still suffering three thousand meters underwater, and couldn't help but think that his father still needed to be tempered.
On the forty-fifth day of the training, the sea suddenly froze. Xiao Changfeng broke through the water and shook his head regretfully.
The Ice Crystal Phoenix could not find an opportunity to evolve, or perhaps it had reached its end.
On the forty-eighth day of training, Xu Tianxi fought fiercely with a ten-thousand-year-old deep-sea demon whale under the sea. After fighting for half an hour, both sides were almost injured and returned to the surface.
Meng Hongchen and Xu Sanshi hurried over to bring Xu Tianxi back to the boat, showing great concern.
"Tianxi, how are you?" Meng Hongchen patted Xu Tianxi's back, and her warm palm transmitted soul power. She had never seen Xu Tianxi so weak.
"It's okay…it's okay…" Xu Tianxi coughed twice and breathed lightly.
Xue Di rarely walked up to Xu Tianxi, touched his wrist to feel his pulse, closed her eyes and said, "Your body's potential has almost reached its limit. If you experience it again tomorrow, it will be very dangerous."
Xu Tianxi shook his head and smiled, holding the ten-thousand-year-old right leg bone dug out from the deep-sea demon whale and shaking it, saying, "Fortune comes with risk. I no longer take these dangers seriously. What I'm worried about now is that I may not get the result I want tomorrow."
After thinking for a while, Xu Tianxi raised his head and said to Xu Xiaoyun in the sky:
"Grandmaster, can you find me a hundred thousand year old soul beast to practice with me tomorrow? I feel the time has come, I can unlock the Black Tortoise Shield and fight it."
Xu Xiaoyun frowned and asked loudly, "Are you sure?"
"Sure! My basalt shield has been hidden for so long, it's time to let it shine!" Xu Tianxi replied loudly.
"Okay! Then you should have a good rest today!"
Xu Xiaoyun agreed cheerfully, then his figure flashed and disappeared in mid-air.
Xue Di raised her eyebrows and reminded: "The strength of a hundred thousand year old sea soul beast is beyond imagination. Don't think that you are invincible just because you killed a fifty thousand year old deep sea demon whale."
Xu Tianxi laughed and said, "Don't forget that my Ultimate Water has not yet been displayed. This ocean is a paradise for sea soul beasts, and it is the same for me. How much strength can sea soul beasts exert in front of the Ultimate Water?"
A rare look of amusement flashed across his brows, and he teased, "Or... you don't believe in the abilities that Ice Emperor has given me? Those two spirit skills are most powerful in the Far North, but they're still okay here."
Xue Di snorted, stood up and said, "Of course I believe in Bing'er. You can fight to the death as you wish, but I want to remind you not to take your life lightly. If you harm Bing'er and Jibei, you will have a heavy responsibility now."
"Don't worry, I always know my limits. I won't go into deep water tomorrow. I can just fight the soul beast in shallow water." Xu Tianxi said with a faint smile.
"It's best if you know your limits." Xue Di nodded and was about to turn around and leave.
Given her cold and aloof personality, it was very rare for her to say so much to Xu Tianxi.
At this time, Xu Tianxi's voice sounded in her ears again.
"Are you interested in going down and experiencing a life-and-death crisis like me? This opportunity is rare."
The Xu Di paused, then turned around slowly, with a cold face and a voice that was as cold as a thousand years: "Is there any martial spirit in this world that is more powerful than my Ice and Snow Girl?"
"There may be some now, and there must have been some ten thousand years ago."
Xu Tianxi said without hesitation: "Ten thousand years ago, when Seagod Island and Spirit Hall still existed, the spirit of the High Priest of Seagod Island was Seagod, and the six-winged angels of the angel lineage of Spirit Hall all had god-level spirits, and their quality was superior to all other spirits."
"Even a holy angel that is a descendant of a six-winged angel can rival an ultimate martial spirit. Your Ice and Snow Maiden may not be stronger than a holy angel, right?"
The Xue Di's foundation is the best among the contemporary soul masters, but in terms of the quality of her martial soul, the Ice and Snow Girl is just a standard extreme configuration, and may not be as good as the Golden Dragon, the ancestor of power, created by a certain three-eyed golden gradient.
"I heard that the three great kings of the Far North all have the blood of the Ice God. What about you? If you can fully stimulate the blood of the Ice God, will you become stronger?"
Xue Di's face was determined. After a moment's silence, he asked, "Why are you saying this?"
Xu Tianxi smiled calmly and said, "It's rare to find someone who can suppress me in terms of strength. I hope you can last longer."
"Are you using me as a whetstone?" Xue Di said coldly.
Xu Tianxi nodded with a warm smile and a gentle voice: "Yes, you can also use me as a whetstone. I don't mind. Just like me and Old Ji used to be each other's whetstones, but unfortunately he can't keep up with me now."
"If you practice normally, you will definitely break your limits. If you can go higher, I will be very happy. Maybe you don't know that you are also half a teacher to me."
Xue Di's pupils shrank suddenly, and her slender and soft hands clenched, "What do you mean?"
Xu Tianxi stood up, holding his chest, and shrugged: "I'll let you owe me a favor so that we can cooperate in the future; after all, we are on the same front now."
"It's a win-win situation, and it's good for both you and me. I don't think you're willing to live under someone else's roof. Even if Xiaobai and the others trained the Ice and Snow Female Spirit Master and sent her to you, you might not be willing to submit now."
"If you don't want to rely on humans to survive, then you can only become a strong person yourself. Isn't it beneficial for you to make your martial soul stronger?"
After this period of contact, he was certain that Xue Di's personality was very arrogant, and it was almost impossible for her to cooperate with Bing Di like that, so he no longer held on to it.
In the original novel, she was trapped in endless traps and her soul was created by accident, turning into a larval snow girl. After she returned to her normal form, it was too late to regret.
Under the current circumstances, he has no interest in going to the Haotian Sect to get the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Bed. If the Snow Empress can become an Ice God herself, it may not be a bad choice.
Xue Di thought for a moment, then nodded slowly: "I'll remember what you said, thank you very much, I won't owe you a favor."
"Haha, let's wait and see."
