In the days that followed, Xiang Yang first familiarized himself with the evolved [Golden Sun] Martial Soul and the changes in his body.
The name of Martial Soul was taken from the sun of the Golden Crow. Xiang Yang originally wanted to come up with a name that was both grand and pleasant to hear. He and Tang San came up with a lot of related characters and words, such as Li, Huang, Yao... Fusang, Xihe, Chihua... and even stars, nuclear fusion, etc. But no matter how they were combined, they didn't have the right feel. It was better to keep it simple.
Gold also carries the imagery of immortality and eternity, so it can be seen as a forward-looking perspective on the future.
Moreover, this was also due to the fact that the dynamic Golden Crow image on his Martial Soul was truly impossible to ignore. Xiang Yang's first thought was that it was related to the intelligence of the Nine Yang Ginseng, but no matter how he tried, he could not communicate with it. However, he figured it shouldn't be anything bad, so he decided to give up for now and wait and see.
As for his surging Soul Power? He needs to hone it properly so that he can use it as easily as before. After all, it was cultivated by himself, unlike other transmigrators who have systems that make their power as solid as a rock, a proof that lasts forever.
Fortunately, his evolved Martial Soul made his already strong control even more formidable, and he completed the task in less than two days.
Then there are the changes in Xiang Yang's body. The changes in his appearance caused by the Immortal Herb are only the most superficial and shallow layer, which is insignificant compared to the changes inside his body.
Starting from the smallest detail, firstly, his physical strength has clearly reached the Soul King level, meaning he can withstand Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
Then there's the recovery ability, which needs to be discussed separately. According to the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, although the Nine Yang Ginseng cannot regenerate severed limbs, it should be able to fully recover from all other "ordinary" injuries; it's just a matter of time.
Considering that he would definitely encounter injuries in future battles, Xiang Yang thought he should at least test it first. The worst time he did so was when he cut his left arm with a dagger, and it healed completely within minutes without even leaving a scar.
Although it wasn't as powerful as the Nine Heart Begonia, it was about the same as ordinary healing Soul Skills, and Xiang Yang was very satisfied with it.
The most important Nine Yang Ginseng is its nine ginseng stems. According to the book, after consumption, it will form the "Nine Yang Meridians" within the cultivator's body.
This thing is like a special constitution. The possessor can be immune to all evils, and all cold and poisonous things cannot get close to the body; moreover, the breath is long and ten times longer than that of ordinary people. If one cultivates the Yang-type method, one can travel a thousand miles a day.
The recovery ability mentioned above is also partly related to this.
The former, Xiang Yang tested with Yin Spring and some Immortal Herbs, and the result was only so-so, similar to Tang San in the original work. No matter how strong the mechanism is, it still needs to be supported by numerical values.
The latter, he did feel that his Soul Power had indeed increased, but that was because the Nine Yang Ginseng had helped him open up several of his Eight Extraordinary Meridians, so his Soul Power could naturally be stored in greater quantities, and it couldn't be considered "ten times more".
However, the quality has indeed improved significantly. Perhaps this is a difference between two worlds. After all, Soul Master's Soul Power at each realm has its limits, but the quality can be improved by using certain methods to reach a higher realm earlier.
This further illustrates that Xiang Yang's current attributes are indeed what later generations would call "the ultimate," which makes sense when you think about it.
Nine Yang Ginseng, nine is the ultimate, nine yang is the ultimate yang, pure yang. In the current era, there is no concept of Ultimate Attributes, but that does not mean they do not exist. For example, the current Blue Silver Emperor is only under the Xiang Yang.
Xiao Wu's Moon Rabbit is out of the question; it's currently a mixed bag, lacking any real mastery. Leaving aside its Yin attribute, her Martial Soul has only just evolved to the level of a top-tier Martial Soul, similar to her original Blue Silver Emperor. Perhaps it could be called the "Rabbit Emperor"?
As for ultimate attributes, judging from Tang San's second awakening of his martial soul, she would need to undergo at least a second awakening to achieve them.
In fact, based on Xiang Yang's exploration over the past few days, the "ultimate" attribute should refer to reaching the threshold of the [law] in a certain attribute, which is why it has the ability to suppress attributes of the same origin or those that are mutually exclusive.
Like this:
"Your fire is too shameless." Tang San said helplessly. Just now, he had witnessed his [Blue Silver Bamboo Net Formation], which he had used after his Blue Silver Emperor evolved, being burned to ashes by the crimson flames before it could even take effect.
"Don't be stingy, it's just a normal test." Xiang Yang withdrew the [Nine Yang Fire] that surrounded him. This was the manifestation of the evolved Martial Soul Golden Sun in the "ultimate fire". Simply put, it can burn anything. At least he hasn't encountered anything that he can't burn yet.
"Hehe." Tang San chuckled speechlessly. Stingy? Of course he knew Xiang Yang was testing him, but he couldn't just target him! There were more than just the two of them here, and so many Soul Beasts outside. Why did he have to bother him while he was refining medicine? Really!
"Alright, alright, actually it's like this." Xiang Yang felt it was about time, so he told Tang San about the original explanation of "Ultimate Attributes " from later generations, combined with his own understanding.
"So, my Blue Silver Emperor also has Ultimate Attribute?" Tang San stared at his Martial Soul carefully, then said, "Why don't I feel the ability to control other plants that you mentioned? Or can I only control Blue Silver Grass?"
"Huh? How could that be?"
Xiang Yang was so certain because after Sacrifice the Immortal Herb, he discovered that his Purple Demon Eye had advanced and gained a unique vision, allowing him to see countless rays of light of various colors in the world. The specific manifestation was somewhat similar to meditation during cultivation and the Mustard Seed Realm of the Purple Demon Eye, with each ray representing a different elemental attribute.
However, most of them were very light in color, with only the colors on himself and Tang San being relatively dark. Later, when he saw the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well next to him, Xiang Yang realized that this might refer to the Ultimate Attribute.
Moreover, people or objects with such dark colors are often accompanied by flowing "lines." Having read many online novels, Xiang Yang immediately thought of things like "laws" and "rules."
Although it's unclear why the Immortal Herb granted him this ability, it's obviously a good thing.
This is mainly due to two reasons. First, like the Moonlight-Beholding Immortal Epiphyllum, the Nine Yang Ginseng has the effect of tempering the soul, but it is not as strong as the Moonlit Immortal Ephemeral Flower. The Xiang Yang Immortal Ephemeral Flower's soul cannot be strengthened by the Nine Suns. In addition, the Xiang Yang Immortal Ephemeral Flower has just cultivated the Purple Demon Eye.
It was as if a water pipe was constantly running, and these soul-tempering powers were drawn here by the attraction.
Secondly, there's the [Martial Soul Fusion] mentioned earlier. Remember when Xiang Yang first awakened his Martial Soul, his physical body naturally possessed the ability to absorb 10% of the Martial Soul's Sunlight Energy?
This mainly represents Xiang Yang's affinity for the corresponding element. His First Soul Ring increased it by 5%, and his Second Soul Ring increased it by 10%, for a total of 25%.
This already grants him extremely strong control over his own Soul Power, and he can even directly use non- Soul Power, Sunlight Energy that is much higher in level than his own. So what about the Nine Yang Ginseng, Immortal Herb, as Sacrifice?
Due to certain reasons, the Immortal Herb and Soul Beast with extremely compatible attributes only increased Xiang Yang's progress by 50%, but this was enough to transform the Purple Demon Eye into its current form.
If we were to change the name, perhaps we could call it "Heavenly Eye," "Eye of God," or "Eye of Law."
