"Boom~~~"
Inside Moby Dick's cabin, flames filled the enormous stone chamber, and the rising temperature turned the surroundings faintly red. If this room had not been specially modified, it might have caught fire long ago.
Just as the flames reached their peak, a faint green light suddenly erupted. A red-and-green sapling slowly grew amid the flames. A tree growing within fire—this bizarre phenomenon that defied common sense had actually appeared here.
On the body of a man wreathed in flames, the faint green light began to merge with the fire.
In Gu Sheng's left hand, the original God Tree sapling had already grown to the level of a young tree. Wrapped in light and shadow that formed the shape of a phoenix, the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower slowly descended onto the God Tree.
The God Tree's originally gentle, life-filled emerald radiance instantly grew stronger, transforming into streaks of green-gold light that coiled around the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower. Meanwhile, the original purple-red flames atop the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower spread along those paths of light. The two slowly came into contact and fused, complementing and illuminating each other.
This was Gu Sheng's first time fusing a Spirit Soul with the Wood Release God Tree. It was a wondrous sensation. He could feel his body undergoing earth-shaking changes.
The two great Martial Souls within Gu Sheng originated from the inheritances of the two descendants of the Sage of Six Paths in the Naruto World. They represented spiritual and physical power respectively: the Sharingan and Wood Release. Developed to their limits, they became the Sage Eye and Sage Body.
The Sage Eye governed spiritual power and strengthened the soul, while Wood Release represented the Sage Body. It governed physical power, strengthened the body, developed all kinds of inconceivable physical abilities, and enhanced one's recovery ability.
