"A Soul Beast Soul, along with the spiritual power and Soul Power of both sides, ultimately formed a Soul Ring. The Soul Beast Soul was merely an attraction coordinate for the Soul Beast's spiritual power and Soul Power; it did not actually participate in the final reaction. Though I don't fully understand it, it was indeed a rule... like how wood naturally burns once it reaches a certain temperature."
Watching as the color shifted rapidly from white to yellow, purple, black, and red under the gradual pull of spiritual power and Soul Power, Chen Fu silently marveled.
"Scarlet King, that's enough. If you absorb any more, you might get hurt."
Chen Fu first shut down the outer attraction fields layer by layer, then activated the core Soul Severing Soul Summoning Composite Matrix in reverse, kicking the Spirit Body Puppy back into its physical body with a whoosh.
He had prepared this in case the Spirit Body could not return to its physical body. The metal sphere-shaped Soul-Separating Device could both shake the Spirit Body's boundaries loose and serve as a coordinate for the Soul-Calling Device to kick it back to the right spot.
"Human...!"
Scarlet King let out an angry roar upon waking after coming back online, only to be pinned down by Di Tian's palm.
"Don't move around. She's breaking through over there. Check your condition."
Hearing this, Scarlet King immediately examined himself. He had lost around one layer of Soul Power, but it could be recovered, so it was not a major problem. He was somewhat mentally fatigued, but it remained within an acceptable range, so that was not a major problem either.
"I'm short about one layer of Soul Power. It's not a major problem," Scarlet King explained to everyone under Di Tian's gaze.
On the other side, above Ma Xiaotao's head, the Crimson Soul Ring that had originally radiated deep-red pressure and intimidation began to fade unconsciously after Scarlet King's Spirit Body was kicked away, taking its most refined power with it.
The Crimson Soul Ring's color began to lighten, even showing signs of turning black. Fortunately, Scarlet King was a Fierce Beast far beyond a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. Even one layer of his Soul Power was still unimaginably vast.
The Soul Ring's color ultimately remained pale red and finally stabilized.
At the same time, as the Pale Red Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring was perfectly attached, Ma Xiaotao's Soul Power Level began to rise as well—sixty-one, sixty-two—before finally stabilizing at sixty-three.
Moreover, as her Soul Power Level broke through, the immense Soul Power of the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring indirectly allowed her formerly white First Soul Ring to grow as well, transforming it into a normal Yellow Soul Ring.
The unimaginable Soul Ring configuration of Yellow Yellow Purple Purple Black Red appeared before both humans and Soul Beasts.
"One layer of Soul Power from a Fierce Beast could match the Soul Ring condensed when an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast died. From this, we can infer the utilization rate of Soul Beast Soul Power by ordinary Soul Masters."
"The world seemed to have always maintained a balance. The total amount of Soul Power Factors truly seemed unchanged, yet it should not have been so."
Mu En had taken Chen Fu around to see this world. Douluo Continent was a sphere, and the "world" known to the vast majority of Soul Masters was nothing more than a grain of sand in the boundless universe.
"How do you feel?"
Shaking his head and throwing the distracting thoughts from his mind, Chen Fu asked the girl whose face was filled with joy.
"There are two Soul Skills, just like a normal Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, but they're much easier to control and don't place any burden on me." The girl's voice carried barely suppressed delight.
"What about the Soul Bone?"
After a moment of silence, Di Tian spoke.
For tens of thousands of years, Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings and Soul Bones had always ranked first and second on Soul Masters' dream lists.
Then Di Tian heard words that would affect the rest of his life:
"Melting Rings pave an invincible path. Why borrow another's bones?"
Clang!
Four Soul Rings formed a Three Talents Array Plate around the Azure Data Soul Ring, suddenly appearing behind Chen Fu as they alternated between slow and swift.
The Origin Energy between heaven and earth suddenly poured downward, only to be absorbed by the Soul Ring array plate. Empowered by the Origin Energy of heaven and earth, Chen Fu's physical body strength rose at a visible rate.
Why had Chen Fu placed Melting Rings on equal footing with the Energy Storage Ring, whose theoretical upper limit was nine red rings?
Because while Melting Rings emptied the Soul Power within Soul Rings, they could also serve as communication nodes for the Origin Energy of heaven and earth. Fully activating them in battle created a low-pressure zone for Origin Energy, causing the Origin Energy of heaven and earth to continuously surge toward those nodes.
"..." Di Tian silently deduced as he watched Chen Fu display his second type of achievement.
With his strength, Di Tian saw through Chen Fu's current state at a glance. His entire body was perfectly integrated, vitality and energy united, while his spirit and soul were selfless. This human was currently only a minor Soul Ancestor, but in Di Tian's deduction, once Chen Fu reached Soul Saint and achieved Martial Soul Physical Body Unity, his physical body strength, at its current enhancement limit, would basically rival the Soul Bone of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
At the same time, he understood what the human before him wanted to do.
This human seemed to possess an almost obsessive pursuit of perfection.
"Human, you are quite impressive."
At certain moments, Di Tian had even felt the urge to kill, but after considering many things, he ultimately chose to give up.
Perhaps because of certain concerns, or perhaps because he harbored certain expectations, Di Tian sighed. This human was clearly very weak, yet the threat he posed to Di Tian far surpassed those two human Peerless Douluo.
"Then, Lord Di Tian, would you be willing to continue our cooperation on the subsequent Soul Ring experiments?"
Dismissing his Soul Rings, Chen Fu began collecting the First Generation Soul Ring Engraver. He dismantled the various precision mechanisms and stored them inside his Spatial Soul Tool.
"Human, what is your name?"
"You may call me Chen Fu, sir."
Chen Fu answered without turning around. He did not like flattering anyone; he was someone who liked getting things done.
"Chen Fu, I agree to your subsequent experiments."
Di Tian did not feel ignored. After living for hundreds of thousands of years, he preferred straightforward communication.
"Take this. Don't die."
A Black Rainbow shot from Di Tian's hand.
Reaching out to catch it, Chen Fu found an exceptionally exquisite Mysterious Black Dragon Scale in his hand.
"Thank you."
Smiling, Chen Fu tucked the Black Dragon Scale into his robe beside a Golden Leaf.
He then sped up the dismantling of the Soul Tools. Once Di Tian lifted the blockade, the two old men beside him took him away.
"My king..."
Scarlet King looked at Di Tian, who was gazing into the sky in silence, and spoke hesitantly.
"You can say it now. What else have you not said?"
Di Tian had long known that Scarlet King had something he wanted to say but could not make up his mind about.
"I feel like my Heavenly Tribulation has been postponed..."
The rustling wind stirred the fallen leaves, making them dance through the air in the forest.
"Do you want to go to the human world?"
Di Tian finally spoke as he stroked the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's golden fur.
"Didn't you say the human world was very dangerous?"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was somewhat curious. Before, she had wanted to run away and he would not allow it. Now, he was letting her go.
"Then are you curious about that human?"
"He seemed very impressive, but I couldn't understand him."
In the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes, Di Tian had opened a barrier, then Chen Fu assembled a machine, after which a woman broke through, and finally Di Tian gave Chen Fu a Dragon Scale. Much of the information had been exchanged through voice transmission, so the Three-Eyed Golden Lion only felt confused.
"That human accomplished the attachment of Soul Rings without killing Soul Beasts," Di Tian explained patiently.
"Didn't you say that had been the unchanging model for millions of years?!" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was shocked.
"That human now looks down on Soul Bones."
"Didn't you say those were things humans had dreamed of for millions of years??"
"That human is now trying to attach Soul Rings on his own without relying on Soul Beasts."
"???"
"So, it seemed the era had suddenly changed. Do you want to go to that human's side? Learn some new things, so you won't be overturned by the tide of the new era."
Di Tian gently stroked the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's Lion Head.
"Go. Go to that person's side, join the new era, enjoy life, and... take control of your fate."
