After successfully absorbing the Soul Rings, Ling Yuxuan felt the changes in his body. After absorbing two thousand-year Soul Rings, his level had reached level 23. Ling Yuxuan knew the drawbacks of raising Soul Power too quickly, so while absorbing them, he condensed the excess Soul Power. He was still in his developmental stage, so he prioritized building a solid foundation. The two thousand-year Soul Rings were enough to raise his Soul Power to level 25.
After absorbing the Soul Rings, Ling Yuxuan's appearance had also changed noticeably. Though he was only six years old, he looked like a child of around nine at first glance.
After obtaining the Soul Rings, Qian Daoliu took Ling Yuxuan and flew toward Spirit Hall.
From the sky, Ling Yuxuan saw a stretch of ruins on the ground. He recognized it at once—it was the village where he had once lived.
Ling Yuxuan tugged at Qian Daoliu's sleeve and said sadly,
"Grandpa Qian, I want to go down there."
Qian Daoliu glanced down at the ground and immediately understood what Ling Yuxuan was thinking.
"Alright, we'll go down now."
"Grandpa Qian, I want to fly by myself."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu released Ling Yuxuan. Feeling the wind continually rush past his ears, Ling Yuxuan instantly used Martial Soul Possession. Four pairs of wings unfurled from his back, and with a beat of those wings, he slowly descended to the ground.
The village where he had once lived had now become a field of broken walls and rubble. Weeds grew everywhere, and dried bloodstains could still be seen on some of the walls.
The scenes of the Evil Soul Masters' massacre resurfaced in Ling Yuxuan's mind one by one. Ling Yuxuan
came before a patch of ruins. There was still a dry well amid the rubble. Ling Yuxuan knelt before it, his eyes brimming with tears.
"Village Chief Grandpa, Xiao Xuan has come back. Xiao Xuan is back. Ever since I was little, you always hoped I would awaken a good Martial Soul and make something of myself when I grew up. Look, this is my Martial Soul."
As he spoke, Ling Yuxuan summoned his Judgment Seraph and Nine Extremes Star Bow Martial Souls.
"Village Chief Grandpa, don't worry. I'll use this power well and wipe out all evil in this world."
The Seraphim Mark on Ling Yuxuan's forehead flickered. Streams of Power of Judgment flowed into his body.
Ling Yuxuan unfolded his Seraph Domain, completely purifying the evil aura surrounding the ruins.
Ling Yuxuan rose to his feet, used Martial Soul Possession, and flew into the sky to Qian Daoliu's side.
Qian Daoliu had seen everything that had just happened. This child valued loyalty and affection. Perhaps saving him back then had been proof that his life was not meant to end!
"Grandpa Qian, let's go!"
After taking one final look back at the ruins, Ling Yuxuan followed Qian Daoliu and flew toward Spirit Hall.
By evening, Qian Daoliu and Ling Yuxuan had returned to Spirit Hall.
Ling Yuxuan immediately went to find Qian Renxue. Qian Daoliu accompanied him to see her, then returned to his Worship Hall.
Night.
Ling Yuxuan and Qian Renxue appeared in the Training Field.
After Ling Yuxuan absorbed his Soul Ring and officially became a Soul Grandmaster, the sense of mutual attraction between them grew stronger and stronger. Qian Renxue thus pulled Ling Yuxuan here to confirm the suspicion in her heart.
"Xiao Xuan, do you feel anything?"
Ling Yuxuan tilted his head.
"Feel what?"
Qian Renxue knocked him on the head.
"I mean, do you feel anything from me?"
"Mm-hm, I do. I feel like Xue'er Sister has gotten prettier."
After saying that, Ling Yuxuan nodded seriously.
Qian Renxue blushed and snapped,
"Idiot, not that. Summon your Martial Soul first and try feeling it again."
Ling Yuxuan did not understand why, but he still summoned his Martial Soul. Qian Renxue immediately summoned hers as well. The two looked up almost at the same time.
"Mm-hm, Xue'er Sister, I feel it this time. It's like you're drawing me toward you. This feeling seems to be... a Spirit Fusion Skill!"
So I'm not the only one feeling this. Xiao Xuan feels it too. Qian Renxue excitedly said to Ling Yuxuan,
"Mm-hm, Xiao Xuan, come here. Let's try it!"
Ling Yuxuan moved close to Qian Renxue, leaving only the distance of a fist between them.
"Uh, Xue'er Sister, why isn't anything happening?"
The two only felt that attraction growing stronger, but nothing happened.
"Xiao Xuan, give me your hand."
The two simply leaned back-to-back, their fingers interlocked.
"Xue'er Sister, try circulating your Soul Power!"
Their Martial Souls behind them drew closer. At the instant they touched, a golden pillar of light shot into the sky, and their figures vanished within it.
Qian Daoliu and several worshippers instantly rushed over!
Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at the scene before him and said to Qian Daoliu,
"Big Brother, Xiao Xue and Xiao Xuan can actually use a Spirit Fusion Skill."
Qian Daoliu was equally stunned. A Spirit Fusion Skill formed from two god-level Martial Souls had never appeared in history before.
When the golden pillar of light dissipated, a golden-red figure stepped out from within. Her form resembled that of the Six-Winged Angel, but unlike it, she had twelve wings behind her and wore a set of golden-red armor. A golden-red spear had also appeared in her hand. This was their Spirit Fusion Skill.
"Sacred Seraph, descend!"
After the two completed their fusion, their Domains merged into one. The Sacred Seraph Domain perfectly inherited every ability of both their Domains.
The Sacred Seraph Domain unfolded. With a flash, the figure had already arrived before Qian Daoliu.
"Grandpa, why are you all here?"
Sacred Seraph spoke in Qian Renxue's voice.
"Xiao Xue, you and Xiao Xuan caused such a huge commotion. How could the rest of us not come?"
Sacred Seraph's form became hazy, and the fusion ended. Ling Yuxuan and Qian Renxue reappeared before everyone.
Their faces were pale as they gasped for breath. Their strength was still too low, and the Spirit Fusion Skill consumed far too much of their power!
Qian Daoliu flashed to their side and sent his own Soul Power into their bodies.
Seeing Qian Renxue and Ling Yuxuan's complexions improve, Qian Daoliu asked,
"Xiao Xue, Xiao Xuan, when did you learn that the two of you possessed a Spirit Fusion Skill?"
Ling Yuxuan shook his head, indicating that he did not know.
Qian Renxue, however, said to Qian Daoliu,
"Uh, Grandpa, it was when you brought Xiao Xuan back. It's just that our strength is still too low right now. We can only maintain it for around three minutes, and that form just now was led by me. If Xiao Xuan leads it, it'll become another form. In other words, the two of us have two different fusion skills!"
Qian Daoliu's eyes widened at Qian Renxue's words. The fusion of two god-level Martial Souls had produced two different Spirit Fusion Skills.
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue and Ling Yuxuan and said,
"The fusion time being short is no problem. As your strength grows, the duration will gradually increase. Whenever you have time, practice more together and improve the coordination between you two. Alright, since everything's fine, Grandpa will leave first."
Qian Daoliu gave Ling Yuxuan and Qian Renxue one final pat on the head before leaving with the other worshippers.
For Shuang Tiandi!
