The Black World, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"Compressed Soul Power?"

After hearing the concept of compressed Soul Power from Tang Chuan,

Ning Fengzhi abruptly rose to his feet. The calmness had vanished from his gentle, refined face, replaced by excitement and delight.

"Logically speaking, Tang Chuan's concept of compressed Soul Power is completely reasonable."

"So, although the flaw of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul has restricted me to Rank 79, preventing me from breaking through..."

"But as long as I can compress my Soul Power, I'll be able to continue increasing my strength?"

"Congratulations, Sect Master!" x2

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo immediately stood up with beaming smiles and clasped their fists toward Ning Fengzhi in congratulations.

However, Ning Fengzhi merely shook his head helplessly and smiled ruefully.

"I only know the concept."

"But as for how to do it, I imagine it won't be that simple."

"Otherwise, this method wouldn't be difficult to think of. It must be difficult to put into practice, which is why no one has ever heard of it all these years."

As he spoke, Ning Fengzhi looked toward the Comparison Sky Screen. A trace of envy flashed through his eyes as he sighed softly.

"If only this Tang Chuan were from our Black World."

"Then perhaps I could ask him about compressing Soul Power."

"Unfortunately, our Black World only has that Tang San."

"Although Tang San also possesses the Mysterious Heaven Skill and other Tang Sect secret techniques, he obtained those things in his previous life by betraying his benefactor and even risking his life. He definitely wouldn't be willing to teach them to anyone else."

"And if I wanted to use other methods, then Tang Hao..."

As a ruthless hero, Ning Fengzhi had little sense of morality.

If possible, he wouldn't mind capturing Tang San, torturing him severely, and forcing him to reveal the Mysterious Heaven Skill, Purple Demon Eye, and other Tang Sect secret techniques.

But Tang San had Tang Hao behind him, and Tang Hao had the Clear Sky Sect behind him.

Given the current strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi felt that the risk was still too great.

As for the Star Dou Great Forest and the Extreme North,

when it came to compressing Soul Power, both Di Tian and Snow Empress remained quite calm.

As Soul Beasts, after breaking through the hundred-thousand-year level, they had to face a tribulation with only a one-in-ten chance of survival every time they advanced another hundred thousand years.

To avoid the tribulation and increase their strength as much as possible,

they had already found a way to compress Soul Power and condense Soul Cores.

Moreover, they had both successfully condensed Soul Cores.

The Comparison Video continued playing.

[In the Blue Silver Forest, while cultivating the Blue Silver Grass Meditation Method and compressing his Soul Power, Tang Chuan would also take time to travel to Nuoding City and help manage and operate his businesses there.]

[For example, the Arithmetic Training Class, as well as the restaurant he had opened together with Su Yuntao.]

[Of course, his primary purpose was still to withdraw money to purchase Whale Rubber, as well as buy the dried food and other daily necessities needed for life in the Blue Silver Forest.]

[In addition, Tang Chuan had Su Yuntao purchase sulfur, saltpeter, and charcoal, while having the Blacksmith Shop forge spherical, thin iron shells and sharp pieces of Refined Iron.]

[As a Soul Master, his strength was still insufficient to hunt thousand-year Soul Beasts.]

[However, by using the knowledge from his previous life, he could manufacture fragmentation grenades.]

[After breaking through to become a Soul Master, with the Blue Silver Crystal Vine Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Domain, and the flying Soul Skill from the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, he should have enough strength to protect himself in the outer regions of the Star Dou Great Forest.]

[Under such circumstances, as long as he manufactured fragmentation grenades capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts, he should be able to hunt them.]

The White World, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"What! A weapon capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts!"

After discovering that Tang Chuan could manufacture fragmentation grenades capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts, Ning Fengzhi became incredibly excited. He immediately stood up, his eyes blazing.

"What our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's support-type Soul Masters lack most is combat ability and the ability to protect themselves."

"If Tang Chuan can manufacture weapons capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts..."

"Then we must find him as soon as possible. I'll represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and purchase these weapons from him. This will surely improve our sect's strength enormously!"

"Good! Sect Master, once this comparison ends, I'll have people search for Tang Chuan with all their might!"

Bone Douluo, Gu Rong, immediately spoke up.

Meanwhile, Tang Hao had left the valley in the Back Mountain of Holy Soul Village while searching for Tang Chuan and had immediately rushed to the Blue Silver Forest.

Unfortunately, he had come up empty-handed.

Because he felt that the Spirit Hall and the other forces would also arrive later,

he had no choice but to leave.

At this moment, seeing that Tang Chuan could actually manufacture weapons capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts, Tang Hao grew even angrier and more frustrated.

That damned unfilial son!

With so many abilities, why hadn't he said anything when he was young?

If he had, perhaps I would have become a normal, loving father.

Now, on the Comparison Sky Screen, you've exposed both compressed Soul Power and your ability to manufacture weapons capable of hunting thousand-year Soul Beasts.

These were supposed to be the bargaining chips for us father and son to claim credit with the Clear Sky Sect and return to the Clear Sky Sect!

Now you've exposed them all!

[In the blink of an eye, more than a year passed.]

[During this year or so, Tang Chuan successfully compressed the Soul Power in his body until it reached the limit his current body could withstand.]

[He also used the purchased sulfur, charcoal, and saltpeter to manufacture black powder, then granulated it. Using the sharp pieces of Refined Iron and thin iron shells forged by the Blacksmith Shop, he manufactured more than fifty fragmentation grenades.]

[After feeling that he was ready, Tang Chuan planned to set out for the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a Spirit Ring.]

[Setting out from the Blue Silver Forest, Tang Chuan used the flying Soul Skill from the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone and rushed toward the Star Dou Great Forest.]

[After arriving at the Star Dou Great Forest, Tang Chuan summoned his Blue Silver Crystal Vine Martial Soul and spread out his Blue Silver Domain. He cautiously entered the Star Dou Great Forest, which was like a vast emerald-green sea of trees.]

[After more than a year of practice, Tang Chuan had already developed the Blue Silver Domain to a certain degree. He could not only use it to disguise the color and number of his Spirit Rings, but also enter a state of visual invisibility.]

[However, the Blue Silver Domain's invisibility could only deceive the eyes. If he encountered serpentine Soul Beasts with heat-sensing abilities or Soul Beasts with exceptionally keen senses of smell, he would still be discovered.]

[Even so, it could still help Tang Chuan avoid quite a few potential Soul Beast attacks.]

[Using the Blue Silver Domain, Tang Chuan continued searching through the outer regions of the Star Dou Great Forest for the top-grade plant Soul Beast he wanted. After searching for three or four days,]

[he finally found a millennium Dreamy Starlight Flower in a forest beside a stream, within a valley where water murmured over the stones.]

(Dreamy Starlight Flower · Concept Art)

[The Dreamy Starlight Flower was a plant with stems and leaves as jade-green as emeralds, and blossoms as dreamlike as starlight.]

[At night, it absorbed the power of starlight and bloomed with dazzling radiance. Its blossoms also secreted a fragrant, energy-rich liquid from their stamens, attracting Soul Beasts.]

[Yet once a Soul Beast approached the Dreamy Starlight Flower, its blossoms would release large amounts of parasitic Pollen Spores, scattering them across the Soul Beast that came to lick up the liquid.]

[The Pollen Spores would take root on the Soul Beast, interfering with its mind and causing hallucinations, while simultaneously crazily absorbing its vitality and Soul Power and returning them to the Dreamy Starlight Flower.]

[If the Soul Beast could not escape, it would die here and become nourishment for the Dreamy Starlight Flower.]

[If it did escape, then after it went beyond a certain range, the Pollen Spores on its body would be unable to return the absorbed Soul Power and vitality to the Dreamy Starlight Flower.]

[But in the end, those Pollen Spores would grow into new Dreamy Starlight Flowers, which would still drain the Soul Beast's vitality and Soul Power.]
