Self-Martial Soul Fusion (Please Keep Reading and Vote Monthly)

Gu Yi had entered the ninth level of the Qi Martial Realm four or five months ago. Origin Qi now filled his limbs and bones, bringing his strength infinitely close to ten thousand jin!

Now, this Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone had become the final force needed to break through the bottleneck.

At that moment, Gu Yi experienced a strange sensation. In the unseen depths, it seemed as though a special force from heaven and earth was merging into his two Martial Souls.

Gu Yi circulated his cultivation technique at full force, driving his blood and qi through his body at high speed. White glimmers continuously flickered across his body, while the surrounding heaven and earth origin qi took on a tangible radiance and flowed around him.

Moments later, a tearing pain suddenly erupted within his soul, as though it were about to rip Gu Yi's soul into countless fragments—yet also as though it were transforming his soul and Martial Souls.

Indescribable agony surged from the depths of his soul, making Gu Yi's entire body tremble violently as beads of sweat the size of soybeans streamed down his face.

Clinging to a shred of focus, Gu Yi hurriedly employed the Bedrock Method, guarding his mind and forcibly enduring the pain brought by his Martial Soul's Innate Awakening through sheer willpower.

Gu Yi had cultivated for six years. He had tempered his will with Blood Malice Qi for six years and endured multiple assaults upon his soul. His willpower was countless times stronger than that of an ordinary Qi Martial Realm martial artist.

Yet even so, when Gu Yi underwent Innate Awakening, the pain arising from his soul had nearly made him pass out.

This showed just how difficult Innate Awakening was for martial artists of the Nine Heavens Continent.

In the Snow Moon Kingdom, out of every hundred martial artists who broke through to the Spirit Martial Realm, perhaps only five could successfully complete their Innate Awakening.

Gu Yi's will was like a spear, charging forward without retreat as he continuously battled the pain in his soul.

Before long, the pain could no longer erode Gu Yi's formidable will. It gradually weakened and faded away.

The soul power origin qi within Gu Yi's body underwent a qualitative transformation, turning into the True Qi unique to Spirit Martial Realm martial artists.

This meant that Gu Yi had officially entered the Spirit Martial Realm and could cultivate Profound-grade techniques.

At that very moment, his Blood Martial Soul and Bone Martial Soul underwent another transformation—another Innate Awakening.

Gu Yi's surging blood and qi burst from his body, turning into a plume of crimson smoke that filled an area thirty meters around him. But as Gu Yi's heart began to pound violently, the blood-and-qi smoke started to contract, becoming dense and viscous as it transformed into various shapes.

One moment, it became a battle flag soaring above Gu Yi's head, releasing an iron-blooded intent filled with fierce malice;

The next, it turned into an enormous furnace that enveloped Gu Yi's body, igniting roaring Blood Flame that continuously burned away the impurities within him and enhanced his physical strength!

At that moment, the radiance around the Blood Martial Soul and Bone Martial Soul grew increasingly brilliant, gradually changing from silver-white to a noble pale gold.

The Blood and Bone, Gu Yi's two Body Martial Souls, had once again risen from Silver-grade Awakening to Gold-grade Awakening in a short time!

Gold-grade Awakening was the highest level of second awakening for Body Martial Souls on Douluo Continent.

Once he actively unleashed his second awakening, Gu Yi's strength could increase twofold or threefold for a short period, equivalent to gaining an enhancement-type soul skill. It was considerably stronger even than his second soul skill, Blood Ignition.

"Gold-grade Awakening..." Gu Yi opened his eyes. With a turn of thought, he understood the changes in his Martial Souls. "This isn't the end of Martial Soul Evolution."

The quality of Gu Yi's Blood Martial Soul had improved enormously. After absorbing the energy of the Blue Silver Grass Soul Bone, it now contained an immense vitality.

If an ordinary person consumed his blood, it would likely be enough to heal commonplace injuries.

As for the even more precious essence blood, its vitality was even denser, no less potent than certain miraculous pills.

His blood could now be called "spirit blood."

"Choosing the Path of Life for the Blood Martial Soul was indeed the right decision."

Gu Yi thought to himself, A single hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Grass Soul Bone has improved the Blood Martial Soul's quality by so much. If I absorb more life energy, the quality of my Blood Martial Soul can continue to evolve. Reaching the stage of Rebirth from a Drop of Blood won't be a dream!

Gu Yi knew of three treasures related to vitality on Douluo Continent.

One was the Immortal Herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, one was the Lake of Life at the very core of the Star Dou Great Forest, and one was the Gold of Life.

If he absorbed the vitality from these, there was no doubt that his Blood Martial Soul would receive an even greater enhancement.

Gu Yi silently committed these targets to memory.

While the quality of his Blood Martial Soul had grown, his Bone Martial Soul had also improved considerably.

Through inner sight, Gu Yi could clearly see that the bones throughout his body had become as translucent as jade, flawless and pure white. Their hardness had risen dramatically.

After pondering for a moment, Gu Yi took a knife from his storage ring and slashed it at his left hand without hesitation.

The sharp blade instantly cut through his flesh and struck his bones directly, producing the sound of clashing metal.

It was clear that even in their normal state, Gu Yi's bones were no weaker than ordinary metal!

If he further used martial techniques exclusive to the Bone Martial Soul, such as the Indestructible Golden Body Art...

Gu Yi estimated that his bones would be able to withstand the attacks of most Spirit Tools.

After testing the strength of his Bone Martial Soul, Gu Yi pulled out the knife without changing expression.

The next second, his Spirit Blood Martial Soul circulated, gathering immense life energy in his left arm.

His mangled left arm visibly recovered at a rapid pace. After several breaths, only a tiny scab remained on the arm.

Beyond that, Gu Yi noticed another change in his two Martial Souls.

He discovered that during the Innate Awakening just now, the origins of the Blood Martial Soul and Bone Martial Soul had fused together and become one.

In the terms of Douluo Continent, Gu Yi's Blood Martial Soul and Bone Martial Soul could achieve Self-Martial Soul Fusion!

Gu Yi was not surprised by this.

On Douluo Continent, if the Martial Souls of two different people possessed a sufficiently high compatibility, they could achieve Martial Soul Fusion.

Not to mention that Blood and Bone were both Gu Yi's own Martial Souls, parts of his body.

Blood and bone had always shared the same origin. Bone could produce blood, and blood could nourish bone; the two complemented each other.

Back in the Qi Martial Realm, Gu Yi had already tried using his control over blood and bone to perform Self-Martial Soul Fusion, thereby increasing his strength.

Now that he had accomplished this step, it was merely the natural course of events.

This was far more than a simple one-plus-one increase for Gu Yi. After performing Self-Martial Soul Fusion, his strength would surge dramatically for a short time.

Combined with soul skills such as Blood Refinement and Blood Ignition, along with Golden-tier Secondary Awakening... the combat power Gu Yi could unleash was terrifying! It was far beyond what his apparent first level of the Spirit Martial Realm and fiftieth-level Soul King cultivation suggested!

At that moment, battle intent surged within Gu Yi. He wanted to find a suitable opponent and have a great battle, to test exactly what level his combat strength had reached.

"A suitable opponent..." A sharp gleam flashed through Gu Yi's eyes.

He had kept a low profile on Douluo Continent for long enough. Previously, he had always been wary of Tang Hao lurking in the shadows, so there were many things he could not do with all his strength.

Now that his cultivation had broken through and his strength had undergone earth-shaking changes, it was time to show his edge on Douluo Continent...

He wanted to see just how powerful the top Titled Douluo of Douluo Continent truly were...
