If it didn't work, he could always separate the processes and tackle them one by one.
Could one soul ring complete the cycle of life and death?
There was a chance!
"There are no soul beasts related to reincarnation in Douluo Continent, but I can create one!"
A radiant, unprecedented light shone in Su Yu's eyes.
"God of Life, I might need your help this time."
"Hahaha, Little Green, even if it's not wisdom, the divine position of reincarnation will be enough to support your future growth!"
The God of Destruction, in this moment, truly admired Su Yu's ambition.
Whether it be life or death, both paths held the potential to achieve the position of God King. Yet, Su Yu aimed to merge these two realms, to complete reincarnation.
Even though, at the beginning, when he first condensed his divine position, external limitations might have restricted him to a low-level divine rank, as time passed and the divine realm expanded, his divine position would quickly rise to the God King level!
Moreover, while divine positions come with many restrictions, battle power was not one of them.
Although a god's strength is often limited by their divine position, if one possesses the talent to condense their own divine position, it was possible—given sufficient understanding and insight—to unleash power beyond their current realm.
In the end, it all depended on one's comprehension and application of the rules.
The God of Life looked helpless.
"Little Purple, you need to understand, he wants to create a soul beast that fits his version of reincarnation, but I don't fully understand reincarnation myself, how can I help him?"
The God of Destruction remained indifferent.
"It's fine. Since he has such ambition, he certainly has the confidence to create a new species. Of course, the final step in bestowing life will require your assistance."
"Let's hope he can make it to the last step."
Su Yu stored the remaining Phoenix Blood Essence.
"The path of reincarnation—Phoenix Blood Essence alone isn't enough; death is also required."
"This is my insight into creating necromantic creatures." Ileks was very helpful, directly transmitting his insights on creating undead creatures to Su Yu.
However, this direct transmission came with a cost. Thankfully, Su Yu had accumulated quite a bit of faith power.
Ileks embedded his insights into the faith power and then infused that power into Su Yu, allowing him to rapidly absorb the information.
The consumption wasn't too significant—just around 10,000 points of faith power.
Su Yu had earned 10,000 points from the First Trial, 50,000 from the Second Trial, and roughly 4,000 from the Soul Burial Valley. During the process of the Second Trial, he spent about 3,000 points, and when he upgraded his fourth soul ring to 100,000 years, he used up around 40,000 faith points.
Altogether, Su Yu had about 10,000 faith points left.
"It seems that I can't afford to spend faith power recklessly right now."
If Su Yu had to create the soul beast needed for the eighth soul ring from scratch, the age of the beast would be a critical factor. Leaving enough faith power to increase its age was the key.
Su Yu didn't want to end up with a soul ring of a white color for his eighth ring while all his previous rings were 100,000-year or 200,000-year ones.
With Ileks' insights into creating undead creatures, Su Yu pondered the direction of creating new life as he traveled.
From life to death, from death to life.
The soul beast he created should ideally fit this principle, this sequence.
"My martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, so it's best to focus on plant-type soul beasts if I try to create one."
Half a month later, Su Yu arrived at a small city in the southeast of the Star Luo Empire.
Wangyue City.
This was where everything had started.
Entering the city, Su Yu headed to the branch of the Wanhu Tower.
"Hello, may I ask where Elder Qian Tong is?"
"Hmm? You're looking for Elder Qian? He completed his trials and promotions long ago. Now, he is responsible for the business of the Shrek City branch."
"Thank you."
After expressing his gratitude, Su Yu turned and left.
He didn't leave Wangyue City right away; instead, he returned to the small courtyard he had once rented.
Whether it was intentional or not, Su Yu noticed that his small courtyard had not been rented out to anyone else since his departure.
When he returned, he was surprised to see the entire house covered in Blue Silver Grass.
"This entire house is covered with at least 100-year-old Blue Silver Grass."
Back when Su Yu had rented this small courtyard, he planted large quantities of Blue Silver Grass to mimic the environment. In his free time, he stimulated their growth with his soul power while also guiding the power of the stars to temper them.
He hadn't expected these Blue Silver Grass to grow so quickly. In just five years, some of them had already reached the level of 100-year-old soul beasts.
"These Blue Silver Grass have mutated and acquired a starry attribute." The phantom of the Blue Silver King appeared nearby, gazing at the plants and speaking.
Mutated with a starry attribute?
Having the ability to absorb the power of the stars certainly explained why these Blue Silver Grass had grown so rapidly.
The growth of Blue Silver Grass didn't consume much energy, and with the added benefit of absorbing star power—such a high-quality energy source—it made sense.
Su Yu poured vitality into the Blue Silver Grass before him.
The Blue Silver Grass in the courtyard immediately blossomed with unparalleled vitality.
"I wonder if, next time I come, this place will be full of thousand-year-old Blue Silver Grass."
Su Yu smiled and turned to leave.
The Star Dou Forest.
"Old Ileks, can you feel the force guiding me?"
Following an unseen guidance, Su Yu arrived at the Star Dou Forest.
This time, he could clearly sense that it wasn't a divine being's guidance.
"Mm, that must be the power of fate."
Hearing Ileks' words, Su Yu's expression shifted to one of surprise.
Power of fate?
Is the power of fate guiding me?
Could it be that auspicious beast?
Well, well, looks like Ho Yuhao didn't need to hunt you down—you came running straight to my bowl?
Su Yu couldn't help but feel exasperated.
If that's the case, the Star Dou Forest is really unlucky to have such an auspicious beast involved.
"Ileks, if we encounter any danger, you must open the Door of the Undead at the first moment."
The auspicious beast is sure to have fierce beasts following it, all likely at the Super Douluo level. Su Yu couldn't be certain he could stand his ground against them.
His soul power was approaching level 80, and the spiritual energy of his advanced battle armor had become even more abundant. The core patterns were more perfectly outlined, making the armor's power stronger. With all his abilities, Su Yu felt confident he could hold his own against an average 95th-level Super Douluo.
But he wasn't sure what level of power those fierce beasts possessed.
In the Star Dou Forest, a Three-Eyed Golden Lion walked along, suddenly feeling a surge of malicious intent.
It stopped and looked around cautiously.
"What's going on? An auspicious beast?"
A crimson figure appeared, thinking that some ill-mannered soul beast was threatening the auspicious beast.
"No, it's nothing. The power of fate just gave me a malicious feedback."
A crisp, feminine voice came from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, which sounded dignified but also carried a hint of innocence.
"Let's go, Red King, let's meet that human."
"Auspicious beast, are you sure you want to meet a human?" Red King's dog-like face looked troubled. He was still concerned that it might be too dangerous for the auspicious beast to meet a human.
"It's fine. The master already agreed to let me come out this time."
Shrek City.
Wanhu Tower.
Qian Tong glanced in surprise at the letter sent from the Wanhu Tower branch in Wangyue City.
"Wangyue City doesn't have much business with Shrek City, right?"
He tore open the letter, scanned the contents, and his face broke into a joyful smile. He patted his round belly.
"Looks like I didn't misjudge back then."
Shrek Academy.
Sea God Hall.
"Beibei, thank you so much for the Dragon Pearl. Without it, I would have had a hard time recovering from my injuries."
Yan Shaozhe returned the Dragon Pearl, its once bright aura now dimmed. Reflecting on his previous injuries, even though he had recovered now, he still felt a sense of unease. The last battle with Zhongli Wu had left him seriously wounded, damaging his very foundation. Even the soul power of Zhongli Wu, filled with deathly energy, had entwined itself around Yan Shaozhe's martial soul, as if it was trying to erode his core.
Luckily, Beibei had lent him the Light Saint Dragon's Dragon Pearl passed down by Mu En.
