Life Core Incarnation, Two-word Battle Armor: Holy Judgment!

The woman wore a pale green gown, her countless strands of hair cascading like a curtain.

She moved with graceful charm, her eyes like autumn waters, as though they contained all things.

"Ling'er, it has been a long time. I hope you have been well."

This was not Ling Luo's first time meeting the woman before him. He bowed slightly and greeted her softly.

The woman before him was no ordinary person.

She was the incarnation of the Life Core.

Not Ah Yin, but the Original Plane Life Core.

Because of God King Tang's plan, Ah Yin would merge with the Golden Ancient Tree and become the Life Core of the Douluo Plane.

As the Douluo Plane's original Life Core, she had yet to fully mature. Under God King Tang's methods, she naturally had no way to contend with Ah Yin.

Yet as the Life Core of an entire plane, she was not entirely without backup plans.

Even though Ah Yin had gained control over most of the Douluo Plane's Life Core power with God King Tang's help, she had never been able to completely take control of it all in such a short time.

After all, when God King Tang devised this plan, the God Realm had already begun undergoing drastic changes. He had been stretched too thin and had been unable to deal with the original Life Core with his full strength.

Of course, another reason was that Tang San had never expected the Douluo Plane's Plane Core to have already developed consciousness.

Driven by the instinct to survive, although most of the Life Core's power had been stripped away by God King Tang's methods, it had still preserved a seed. When Ah Yin took up residence in the Golden Ancient Tree, that seed remained within it.

But she had no means of resisting.

Because Ah Yin had already gained control over the vast majority of the Life Core's power.

Although she had managed to survive, she had no way to do anything that could change the current situation.

She did not even dare make a move, afraid that Ah Yin would notice her and erase even this final trace of consciousness.

Until Ling Luo appeared.

As the Life Core of the Douluo Plane, her sensitivity to Life Power had not vanished along with the loss of most of her own strength.

She sensed the God King-level Life Power within Ling Luo's body.

After realizing Ling Luo's uniqueness, the Life Core, unwilling to simply fade away with time, finally made up her mind to act.

While Ah Yin was still asleep within the Golden Ancient Tree, and only Jin Lao, the Golden Ancient Tree's tree spirit, was present, the original Life Core that had long hidden within the Golden Ancient Tree used certain methods to contact Ling Luo one night.

It was during that contact that Ling Luo learned of the Original Plane Life Core, one that had never even been mentioned in the Original Work.

And the two of them each had their own interests and needs.

Ling Luo needed the Life Core's help to obtain more Life Power.

Across the entire Douluo Plane, only the Life Core possessed that ability.

As for Ah Yin, who had acquired most of the Life Core's power...

She indeed possessed that ability, but she would absolutely never help him.

After all, Ah Yin was here and had become the new Life Core precisely to pave the way for Tang Wulin.

She had no reason whatsoever to help Ling Luo.

Thus, Ling Luo could only place his hopes on the Life Core.

And the Life Core needed Ling Luo's help to be reborn.

Thus, a partnership naturally came into being.

The Life Core drew upon the Seed of the Life God King within Ling Luo's body.

Although the Seed of the Life God King had been left behind after the God of Life fell, its essence was undeniably at the God King level.

Drawing upon the Seed of Life's power, the Life Core sealed Ah Yin while she slept and gradually reclaimed the power that had previously been stripped away.

With the Life Core's help, Ling Luo used the Golden Ancient Tree as a medium to gain an immense amount of Life Power.

That was how his terrifying Soul Ring configuration had come to be.

As for the Golden Ancient Tree's original tree spirit?

He had long since lost control over the Golden Ancient Tree under God King Tang's methods.

He could only mobilize the Golden Ancient Tree's power under Ah Yin's instructions.

Thus, he knew nothing of the hidden changes taking place in the shadows.

"You seem to have improved again recently?"

The Life Core, whom Ling Luo called Sister Ling, keenly detected the changes in him, her voice filled with joy.

Although she had recovered some of her power with the help of the Seed of Life within Ling Luo, she had never been able to fully return to her peak.

Nor did she dare go too far.

After all, Ah Yin had once been a god-level figure.

Moreover, Tang Hao, who had replaced the Plane Lord, was now still on the Douluo Plane.

If she wanted to truly gain rebirth and freedom, she had to wait until Ling Luo completely stepped into the realm of gods.

Only then would Tang Hao and Ah Yin cease to pose any threat.

And that was one of the terms of their cooperation.

That was why she was so delighted upon seeing Ling Luo's growth.

After all, the sooner Ling Luo grew stronger, the sooner she could be reborn.

It could be said that her interests were inseparably tied to Ling Luo's.

"Mm." Ling Luo nodded slightly.

"My control over Life Power has indeed improved somewhat."

"So, with your help, Sister Ling, I hope to try that idea once more."

Tian Ling'er was the name the Life Core's consciousness had chosen for herself after coming into being.

She nodded slightly.

"I understand."

Tian Ling'er waved her hand gently. Enormous Life Power transformed into several pale green chains that connected to Ling Luo's body, continuously supplying him with Life Power.

Ling Luo also began to move.

He slowly activated his Soul Power.

Pieces of strange metal armor emerged around his body.

The armor was entirely a holy white, as though it encompassed all things.

On the two shoulder guards, one bore a lustrous green pattern symbolizing life, while the other bore a deep purple pattern symbolizing destruction.

Faint Power of Life and Power of Destruction flowed within them.

Black and pure-white metal armor covered the wings spread behind Ling Luo's back.

Because of its unique design, the Battle Armor added a touch of eerie allure to Ling Luo when it appeared.

Holy, vigorous life and silent, bewitching destruction existed in perfect balance upon the same person.

This was Ling Luo's Two-word Battle Armor.

A dual-attribute Battle Armor designed by his own hand, based on his Martial Soul!

Ling Luo had poured tremendous effort into designing this Battle Armor.

Because of his Martial Soul's characteristics, achieving perfect harmony between the two was exceedingly difficult.

Across the entire history of Battle Armor crafting on the Douluo Continent, Ling Luo could not find a similar example.

That further increased the difficulty.

Only after consulting many high-level craftsmen and spending a great deal of time studying it himself did Ling Luo finally design this set of Battle Armor.

Holy Judgment!

That was the name he had given his Two-word Battle Armor.

The holiness of the Life Angel.

The judgment of the Destruction Angel!

Now, Ling Luo was about to take a step unlike that of conventional Battle Armor!
