Emperor-Class Martial Soul Fusion Skill
The next morning, Tang San walked out of the wooden house and his gaze fell on Ye Lingling in the open space.
She was standing by the pool, her long blue hair swaying gently in the morning breeze, her pale green dress appearing and disappearing in the mist.
Tang San sensed a strong connection between himself and Ye Lingling surging deep within him.
That connection began the moment Ye Lingling's Martial Soul completed its evolution yesterday; it was like a fundamental resonance between two top-tier Plant-type Martial Souls.
Tang San could sense that Ye Lingling had the same feeling.
There were just too many surprises yesterday, and I needed time to process them, so I didn't immediately think about the reasons behind them.
In Ye Lingling's gaze toward Tang San, besides tenderness and love, there was also a sense of closeness and dependence from the depths of her Martial Soul.
Tang San walked to the edge of the pool and stood next to Ye Lingling.
He turned his head to look at her, Ye Lingling also turned her head to look at Tang San. They both spoke at the same time.
"Lingling, don't you think...?"
"Third Brother, I feel..."
They both stopped at the same time and laughed at the same time.
Tang San grasped Ye Lingling's hand.
The moment their hands clasped together, the sensation was amplified several times over.
Blue-gold light surged from their palms simultaneously, intertwining to create a dazzling display of light and shadow above the pool.
Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu, and Shui Bing'er also came out of the wooden house and stood not far away, watching the scene by the pool in surprise.
"What's wrong with Third Brother and Sister Lingling?"
Xiao Wu's eyes were full of curiosity.
After pondering for a moment, a look of understanding flashed in Dugu Yan's eyes, and she voiced her guess. "It should be a resonance between Martial Souls. Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia has evolved into the Nine Heart Begonia Emperor, and Third Brother's Blue Silver Emperor is also an Emperor-level Martial Soul. There may be some kind of deep resonance between these two Emperor-level Plant-type Martial Souls."
Shui Bing'er stood beside Dugu Yan. She recalled a similar feeling she had experienced with Xue Wu back then, which led them to develop the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Ice and Snow Drifting.
She nodded and said, "Perhaps it's not just resonance. Two Martial Souls of the same origin, or complementary ones, might resonate with Martial Soul, and thus develop Martial Soul Fusion Skill. I had a similar experience back then."
Dugu Yan and Xiao Wu turned their heads to look at Shui Bing'er, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.
In the recent Soul Master Tournament, the two of them had experienced Shui Bing'er's Martial Soul Fusion Skill firsthand.
Martial Soul Fusion Skills are extremely rare and have very demanding conditions, requiring both parties to be of one mind, resonate with each other emotionally, have a soul connection, and have complementary Martial Souls.
If Tang San and Ye Lingling can truly develop Martial Soul Fusion Skill, it will be an extremely powerful trump card.
By the pool, Tang San and Ye Lingling sat facing each other, their hands clasped together, palms touching.
Both of them closed their eyes at the same time, their Soul Power slowly flowing through their bodies, flowing into each other's bodies through their clasped hands.
Blue-gold light rose simultaneously from the two of them, converging, merging, and swirling overhead.
The fusion of the Blue Silver Emperor and the Nine Heart Begonia Emperor, two top-tier Plant-type Martial Souls, represents the ultimate resonance in the Life Domain and a complete manifestation of the laws of life.
Blue Silver Emperor represents the vigor and resilience of life force, Nine Heart Begonia Emperor represents the healing and revival of life force.
Both share the same origin and are of the same lineage.
Their Soul Power circulated within their bodies, forming a perfect loop.
We are intertwined, inseparable.
However, the first attempt at the Martial Soul Fusion Skill failed.
Ye Lingling opened her eyes and looked at him, a hint of disappointment flashing in her blue eyes.
"Don't rush, take your time." Tang San's voice was gentle and patient. "Martial Soul Fusion Skill can't be mastered overnight. We have plenty of time."
Ye Lingling nodded, then reached out and grasped Tang San's hand again.
The second time, the third time, the fourth time...
He constantly adjusted the rhythm and method of Soul Power circulation, searching for the balance point of Martial Soul Fusion.
Tang San and Ye Lingling have known each other for nearly ten years. There are no obstacles in their feelings and emotions; they just need to find the right balance.
Soon, on their fifth attempt, both of their bodies jolted simultaneously, then relaxed at the same time.
The Soul Power formed a perfect cycle within the two of them, endlessly circulating and regenerating.
In the center of the open space, the two held hands and simultaneously released their Martial Soul.
The Blue Silver Emperor and the Nine Heart Begonia Emperor converged and merged in the air, spiraling upwards to form a giant pillar of light.
At this moment, all the Blue Silver Grass in the Blue Silver Forest glowed faintly, its leaves trembling gently, as if in worship, as if in cheers.
The air was brimming with vitality; every breath felt like every pore on my body opened up.
The beam of light gradually condensed, transforming into a phantom image ten meters tall.
That was a goddess.
Her face was compassionate and dignified, and her eyes revealed a gentleness and wisdom that transcended human comprehension.
The corners of his mouth curved into a slight smile, as if he were smiling, or perhaps gazing upon all living beings in the world.
Her body was enveloped in a pale green halo, a soft and warm glow, like a mother's embrace.
Her hands were clasped together in front of her chest, her palms holding a bright green orb of light. The orb pulsed in her palms, and a life energy spread outwards.
That is the embodiment of the Goddess of Life.
The Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Blue Silver Emperor and the Nine Heart Begonia Emperor, "The Descent of the Goddess of Life".
The two opened their eyes at the same time, their eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.
They could sense that the phantom of the Goddess of Life was connected to their consciousness.
They could control her with their thoughts; information about the two skills flooded their minds.
Skill 1: Life Blessing
Consuming 90% of both characters' health and Soul Power allows you to choose to immediately revive a creature that died within one hour.
Upon resurrection, health and Soul Power are restored to 100%, and all negative status effects are removed.
It can only be used once a year.
After using them, given their current strength, they will likely be weakened for more than a month, during which time they will be unable to use the Blue Silver Emperor and Nine Heart Begonia Emperor Martial Souls.
Skill 2, Life Judgment.
Those possessing evil attributes, such as undead, curses, or dark-type Martial Souls, can be subject to a judgment.
It deals true damage equivalent to 50% of Tang San's maximum health, ignoring defense and cannot be resisted.
After experiencing two terrifying skills, the two looked at each other, tears welling up in their eyes at the same time.
Resurrection! Even if it can only be used once a year, even if it consumes 90% of your life and Soul Power, and even leaves you weak for more than a month, it's still resurrection!
It is the ability to bring the dead back to life.
No Martial Soul or Soul Skill on the entire continent has achieved this.
The Life Judgment is the absolute restraint of evil attributes.
This will be a skill used to "save them from dire straits," their last trump card for turning the tide.
The two simultaneously withdrew from their fusion. The illusory figures hovered in the air for a moment before slowly dissipating, turning into specks of emerald green light that merged into their bodies.
Tang San pulled Ye Lingling into his arms, wrapping his arms tightly around her waist.
Ye Lingling wrapped her arms around Tang San's neck, buried her face in his shoulder, and let her tears drip onto his shoulder.
"Lingling, we succeeded." Tang San's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement and joy.
"Yes," Ye Lingling's voice trembled with tears, "We did it."
Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu, and Shui Bing'er walked over from not far away and stood beside the two, their eyes filled with shock and envy.
After releasing Ye Lingling and introducing their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Tang San looked at everyone earnestly. "Life Blessing is powerful, but I hope we'll never have to use it."
The four girls nodded at the same time.
They naturally understood Tang San's meaning: when they used their Life Blessings, it meant that their closest relatives had encountered a calamity of death.
That's definitely not what they expected.
They would rather this skill never be used.
