Martial Soul Evolution! Kong Deming's Research! (Please Follow and Read!!! Please Recommend!!!)

"Tang Sect?"

Kong Deming was somewhat surprised to hear that name from his disciple.

However, the techniques Su Yu had used in this Soul Tool did indeed bear similarities to Tang Sect hidden weapons.

Tang Sect hidden weapons had declined after the emergence of Soul Tools. But that did not mean the Sun Moon Empire was unaware of the Tang Sect's existence.

"The Tang Sect."

Prompted by his disciple, Kong Deming began to take an interest in the Tang Sect's hidden weapon techniques.

If they had been eliminated by Soul Tools, they were not worth paying attention to.

But if those obsolete techniques could accelerate the development of Soul Tools—

Then they were worth studying.

"Old Kong, I'll take the brother and sister back to recover first." Jing Hongchen hurried away with Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.

Treating their injuries was one reason; another was that he was eager to verify the line of thought Su Yu had given him.

He vaguely felt that his breakthrough lay within this insight!

He had only had a vague feeling about Humanoid Soul Tools, without any concrete ideas. But regarding Soul Tool Armor technology, he truly had some thoughts now!

Pure Soul Tool Armor was still merely an external object.

It was simply more suitable for combat because of its armor-like form.

But what if Soul Tool Armor could go a step further—integrating further with Soul Masters and complementing one another?

Jing Hongchen had not known how to proceed before.

But today, he had found the direction.

Soul Tool Arrays!

Soul Tool Arrays were the foundation of everything.

Soul Tool Arrays connected Soul Tools. They could also be integrated into Martial Souls, then make use of the connections between the arrays—

Everything had become so clear!

"Little Yu, these are the rewards I promised you."

Kong Deming took out the two treasures he had prepared long ago.

"The Divine Light Cover has a trigger effect. It can activate its protection three times in total, and each time can withstand a Titled Douluo's full-force attack."

Su Yu accepted the Divine Light Cover and directly wore it around his neck as a necklace.

"The Nine Petal Snow Lotus can transform your Martial Soul. Restore yourself first, then refine it here. Your teacher will stand guard for you."

The Nine Petal Snow Lotus in Kong Deming's hand emitted a piercing chill, yet within that chill lay surging life force.

Su Yu nodded and sat down where he was. His First Soul Ring and Second Soul Ring lit up, and with the support of his two Soul Skills, he recovered to peak condition within an hour.

The injuries he had sustained in battle had not fully healed, but they were no longer a serious concern.

"Teacher."

Kong Deming handed the Nine Petal Snow Lotus to Su Yu, then stood guard nearby.

Su Yu plucked off a petal and placed it in his mouth.

The petal melted the moment it entered his mouth, and a stream of icy Soul Power surged into Su Yu's body.

Petal after petal was refined by Su Yu. After refining all nine petals, his Soul Power alone had already risen to the peak of Level Thirty-Five.

One had to know that he had only broken through to Level Thirty-Five last night!

The nine petals were merely an appetizer, allowing his body to adapt to the Snow Lotus's power. Su Yu took out the condensed flower core that radiated an icy aura from within the Snow Lotus and swallowed it.

Dense life force mixed with ice-attributed Soul Power flooded his meridians. Su Yu circulated the Meditation Method and Body Tempering Method, refining this energy with all his strength.

Time passed.

It took Su Yu three days to refine this life force and Soul Power. At that moment, Blue Silver Grass bloomed all around him, brimming with vitality, while behind him stood the phantom of a Blue Silver Grass plant.

Unlike ordinary Blue Silver Grass, Su Yu's Blue Silver Grass emitted a silvery-white radiance, and silvery-white patterns ran along its stalk.

Moreover, even as a mere Martial Soul phantom, it radiated dense life energy.

"Looks like the Martial Soul Evolution was a success."

Kong Deming inwardly breathed a sigh of relief. Sensing the life force within Su Yu's Martial Soul, he nodded. Life Attribute at this level could already be called a top-tier Martial Soul.

Combined with the Soul Skills Su Yu had created himself and his combat methods, he could stand at the peak among Soul Masters of the same rank.

Su Yu slowly opened his eyes.

Soul Power surged around him.

"My Soul Power has broken through to Level Thirty-Eight!"

The Nine Petal Snow Lotus contained immense life force and Soul Power. After refining it, not only had Su Yu's Martial Soul transformed, but his Soul Power had also risen by three levels!

Naturally, it could not compare to an Immortal Herb.

But even this effect was already heaven-defying.

One had to know that a Heaven and Earth Treasure capable of promoting Martial Soul Evolution was itself a supreme stroke of fortune.

The effect of this Nine Petal Snow Lotus was even stronger than Su Yu absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.

But if a Nine Petal Snow Lotus has such an effect, just how heaven-defying would an Immortal Herb be? Su Yu thought.

"How is it? Has your Martial Soul changed in any way?" Kong Deming asked.

Su Yu nodded. He could feel the changes in his Martial Soul.

The greatest change was that his Martial Soul now possessed a domain!

During the Martial Soul's transformation, a domain had been born and fused with his Self-Created Soul Skill, Blue Silver Domain.

The current Blue Silver Domain was no longer merely a Self-Created Soul Skill developed by Su Yu, but an innate talent of his Martial Soul.

At the same time, it now possessed the functions of a true domain. Within its range, the growth rate of Blue Silver Grass increased tenfold. As the amount of nearby Blue Silver Grass increased, Su Yu's Soul Power recovery, physical recovery, Soul Power output, and Soul Skill effects all received massive boosts.

Moreover, and this was what Su Yu valued most, his speed was also enhanced within the Blue Silver Domain.

And besides the domain, Martial Soul Evolution brought many other benefits as well.

First, the effects of Su Yu's three major Soul Skills had become even more powerful. After all, those three Soul Skills relied on the Life Attribute of Blue Silver Grass to function.

"I also gained ice resistance."

Su Yu was already very satisfied with such an effect.

And beyond the changes to his Martial Soul, Su Yu himself had improved tremendously.

His Soul Power had broken through to level thirty-eight, and his physique had improved drastically as well.

"My physique can basically withstand a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring without any pressure now."

Su Yu had always practiced the Body Tempering Method. After obtaining his First Soul Ring, he had tempered his body with Star Power every day. He had also chosen the path of life; each time he absorbed a Soul Ring and raised his Soul Power Level, the life force that Blue Silver Grass fed back into his body brought the effects of his tempering to their peak.

A thousand-year Second Ring, a Five Thousand Year third ring!

Gradually Absorbing Across Levels had already laid an excellent foundation for him. Now that he had consumed the Nine Petal Snow Lotus, his physique had improved dramatically once more, and bearing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring would not be a problem.

Of course, to be safe, it would still be best to find a piece of Ten Thousand Year Whale Gelatin and refine it before absorbing the Soul Ring.

"As for the Soul Shock that comes with a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring—"

Honestly, Su Yu was not afraid of that at all.

He even hoped it would come on stronger. The harsher, the better.

"Give Old Yi something nourishing."

Illustrious Virtue Hall.

After stabilizing Meng Hongchen's condition and handing her over to Xiao Hongchen's care, Jing Hongchen eagerly returned to his office.

He wrote and sketched on paper, listing all kinds of complex Core Arrays.

There were dozens of books related to Core Arrays on his desk.

"Arrays that can enhance Martial Souls."

"Linking arrays together—I know how to do that. It's similar to connecting the components of Soul Tool Armor."
