Jerry Hadn't Even Made a Move, and His Worries Were Gone

Hearing Tang Hao's final words before his death, it seemed Jerry's previous concerns had been entirely accurate! Tang Hao had indeed discovered Xiao Wu, but since he himself did not lack Soul Rings, he had planned to make his move only once Tang San could absorb one! Unfortunately, he had been careless back then and let Xiao Wu escape. He had regretted it many times afterward!

Jerry had originally been thinking about how to deal with Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao. Before he could even act, they came knocking on his door themselves!

Jerry had stayed hidden in the forest because he feared Tang Hao would find Xiao Wu. Now, his "future worries" had delivered themselves to his doorstep. Before he even made a move, Tang Hao and another man who looked somewhat like him were gone! He really did not know what to say. He had clearly been building up his strength to deal with an opponent, only for that opponent to suddenly die at the hands of one of his subordinates. There was a secret thrill to it, but also the feeling of punching cotton! Man proposes, Heaven disposes!

Two Titled Douluo had died just like that. They had lived greatly and died without a sound! The information passed along by the Soul Beasts had said there were two Titled Douluo with hammer Martial Souls. Jerry guessed one was Tang Hao, while the other should have been the current sect master of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Xiao! Other than Tang Xiao, no one would have helped Tang Hao!

After the two Titled Douluo died, two Soul Bones appeared beside Tang Hao's body, while four appeared beside the other Titled Douluo. Six Soul Bones in total—just enough for a complete set without repeats. It seemed these were the inherited Soul Bones of the Clear Sky Sect! This also confirmed that the other man was Tang Xiao!

They had traveled a thousand miles just to hand over their heads! And they had even brought a grand gift with them!

Six Soul Bones! Jerry hurriedly examined them. They had all come from powerful, strength-focused animal Soul Beasts! The lowest was thirty thousand years old, while the highest was eighty thousand years old! To the current Jerry, they were merely average. After all, a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone was still lying unabsorbed in his ring! Besides, Jerry's standards were high now—he did not want anything below a Hundred Thousand Year!

He suddenly thought of the Left Leg Bone produced after Ah Yin's sacrifice. Without the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, he wondered whether that Left Leg Bone would weaken. Still, its two skills were useless to Jerry. One was Wildfire Never Dies, Spring Breeze Revives. Despite the ridiculously long name, it was merely a healing Soul Skill. In the early stages, it could only be used passively; Tang San could only use it actively after becoming a Titled Douluo. The second skill was flight, which Jerry did not need either. With Spiritual Power controlling objects, he could directly lift his own body. But Jerry still insisted on using a Flying Sword—not for any other reason, but because it looked cool! So these two Soul Skills were only useful to Tang San. And if something was useful to Tang San, Jerry had to snatch it!

Now that he had no more worries, couldn't he go out whenever he wanted?

Jerry calculated that he was now over fourteen years old, about the same age as Tang San. Tang San had participated in the Soul Master Tournament when he was nearly fifteen, then trained with Tang Hao and his hammer for a year, reaching almost sixteen!

In other words, the Soul Master Tournament was about to begin. Should he go out and take a look?

There was still time, so Jerry decided to finish what he had not completed before!

When Jerry had successfully condensed the Water Attribute Soul Power Seed before, he had wanted to continue condensing seeds of other attributes. But later, as he learned more, more matters had piled up. Now, he could temporarily put everything else aside and improve himself first!

Jerry was not afraid of attribute conflicts. Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth—Metal Generates Water, Water Generates Wood, Wood Generates Fire, Fire Generates Earth, Earth Generates Metal! The Five Elements mutually generated and restrained one another. Since he knew the cycle of mutual generation, he just had to follow the order!

After his Spiritual Power became stronger, he could see the Attribute Soul Power in the air. He could use his Spiritual Power to guide that Soul Power for his Martial Soul to absorb, rather than letting the Martial Soul absorb it unconsciously on its own! He no longer needed to plant Martial Souls. Jerry only needed to guide external Soul Power near his Martial Soul! Things like the bone fertilizer from before worked by increasing the Soul Power in the soil. Now, Jerry could guide it directly with Spiritual Power, which was more effective than any fertilizer!

Metal Attribute Soul Power should appear as golden particles throughout heaven and earth. Jerry then went to the Metal Attribute Area, where Metal Attribute power was abundant. He spread out his Spiritual Power and guided those Metal Attribute particles together. More and more particles gathered, from being invisible to the naked eye at first to forming a glowing golden sphere the size of a football! He then had his Martial Soul appear directly in the center of the golden sphere. Wrapped in the golden light, the Martial Soul could not absorb any other Soul Power. It was somewhat uncomfortable at first, but plants were highly adaptable organisms. It quickly adapted to being surrounded by the Metal Attribute and began absorbing it! Soon, a trace of Metal Attribute Soul Power appeared within the Martial Soul. Jerry hurriedly covered it with Spiritual Power and began merging the newly absorbed Metal Attribute power into it. Once the Metal Attribute Soul Power slowly reached a certain amount, it automatically began condensing into a Soul Power Seed. It was soon successfully condensed—a Level 1 Soul Power Seed as well!

Jerry then began condensing the Earth Attribute. He went to the Earth Attribute Area, where there was a great deal of yellow Soul Power. So yellow must represent the Earth Attribute! It was condensed successfully very quickly, and it was also a Level 1 Soul Power Seed!

Lastly came the Fire Attribute, once again a Level 1 Soul Power Seed!

He had wanted to condense higher-level ones, but it seemed there was some kind of restriction. Every seed he condensed was Level 1. They could only slowly grow by absorbing Soul Power later. Jerry could not accelerate this growth; it was related to the Martial Soul itself, or rather, the quality of the Soul Power Seed. The absorption speed depended on Martial Soul Quality. Level 1 meant Level 1 speed. Even if Jerry surrounded himself entirely with Soul Power, the absorption speed would not change!

After all five Five Elements seeds were successfully condensed, his Martial Soul began absorbing these five kinds of Soul Power from heaven and earth! Yet they did not provide any strengthening effect. The five seeds each acted independently within the Martial Soul, without interfering with one another! This was different from what Jerry had expected! The Five Elements mutually generated one another, so why was there no reaction at all now?!

Did he need to connect them? But how was he supposed to connect them? He had no clue at all!

He suddenly recalled the Five Elements Mutual Generation and Restraint Diagram he had seen in his previous life. There was a circle on the outside and a pentagram on the inside. Each point of the pentagram held one attribute, arranged in the order Metal, Water, Wood, Fire, Earth. The circle represented the mutual generation relationship, while the pentagram represented the mutual restraint relationship! In some diagrams, a Taiji symbol was also drawn in the middle of the pentagram!

His five attributes were not connected to one another. Could this Taiji be the key? Taiji, black and white, light and darkness!

With that thought, he gave it a try. Jerry then condensed a transparent Light Attribute Soul Power Seed and a black Dark Attribute Soul Power Seed, both still Level 1!

He then guided them to appear between the other five types of Soul Power. There was still no reaction, leaving Jerry completely baffled!

At present, only white and Purple Soul Power in heaven and earth had yet to be condensed into seeds. Purple was the Lightning Attribute, but Jerry could not sense what attribute the white power belonged to! White Soul Power was everywhere, yet he could not find any area where it was especially concentrated!

Jerry had gone to other areas as well. The Ice Attribute and Water Attribute Areas both contained cyan Soul Power, so it seemed they were fundamentally the same type. The Ice Attribute was merely one form of the Water Attribute! Neither the Spiritual Area nor the Poison Attribute Area had any special Soul Power. It seemed that the spiritual and poison attributes were merely biological traits. These two attributes would have to be studied later!
