Looking into Ji Juechen's eyes, which still burned with fighting spirit, a thought suddenly popped into Luo Can's mind.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin of this era, is hailed as the wielder of the Seven Kill Sword, the "Number One Offensive Weapon Soul in the World," and a representative figure at the pinnacle of swordsmanship.
Ji Juechen, on the other hand, is Sword Obsessive from Ten Thousand Years in the future. With his Common Iron body, he defied fate and forged his own path of the sword.
If these two were to meet...
"Juechen, there's another Title Titled Douluo is 'Sword'," Luo Can patted his shoulder and smiled. "He's hailed as the greatest swordsman of our time, and his martial soul, the Seven Kill Sword, is the number one offensive weapon martial soul in the world. If you have time, you can challenge him."
Ji Juechen's eyes lit up.
"I will."
That look in his eyes seemed to already see the next peak waiting to be climbed.
Luo Can smiled and said, "Come with me, I'll take you to see someone."
Ji Juechen quickly followed. The two soon arrived at the courtyard where the disciples lived and found Tang Ya practicing the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.
" Xiao Ya, come here for a second." Luo Can beckoned.
Tang Ya quickly stopped her practice, her figure flashing like Gui Mei, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of the two people.
"Master." She bowed respectfully.
Luo Can pulled Ji Juechen from behind him to the front and said with a smile, "Let me introduce you, this is Ji Juechen. He joined the Tang Sect after the Tang Sect reconstruction."
Then, he turned to Ji Juechen: "This is Tang Ya, but... Tang Ya when she was a child."
Ji Juechen was slightly taken aback, and said:
"Greetings, Sect Master."
Tang Ya curiously observed Ji Juechen. The aura emanating from this white-haired swordsman was extremely sharp, but what concerned her more were those words—
"After the Tang Sect was rebuilt?"
She blinked and asked, "Why do you want to join the Tang Sect? Wasn't the Tang Sect... in decline?"
" Huo Yuhao invited me to join," Ji Juechen replied succinctly.
Guided by Luo Can, Ji Juechen briefly recounted the story of " Tang Ya " from his memories— the Tang Sect declined, its foundation was seized, his parents were killed, his heart became unbalanced, he fell into evil ways, became Evil Spirit Master, and was eventually rescued by Huo Yuhao and others...
After listening, Tang Ya fell silent.
She lowered her head, her small hands unconsciously clenching.
He knew the Tang Sect would be rebuilt, but not through his own efforts to achieve glory. He knew he would become Evil Spirit Master and need someone to save him. He knew he would walk down such a dark path...
Her heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by something.
"Master," her voice trembled slightly, "Am I really useless?"
Luo Can squatted down and gently stroked Tang Ya's head.
"No, Xiao Ya. Anyone would feel lost in that situation. Your talent isn't top-notch, and you've been dealt with the decline of the Tang Sect, the loss of your foundation, and the murder of your parents... Your inner imbalance led you down the wrong path, but this isn't your fault."
"But in the end, I still became Evil Spirit Master..." Tang Ya bit her lip.
She worried that she might repeat the same mistake in the future. After all, she had also discovered that her Blue Silver Grass seemed to have the ability to devour life, and Ji Juechen's words made her feel very uneasy.
Luo Can looked intently into her eyes:
"Power itself is neither right nor wrong; it's all about how you use it. Just like in this era, there are quite a few dark-type martial souls— Ghost Douluo of the Spirit Hall, Bone Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, and even in the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, there is a chief Academy Committee Member whose martial soul is the Black Demon."
"Cultivate diligently. As long as you stay on the right path, you will be my disciple."
Upon hearing this, Tang Ya slowly raised her head, her eyes regaining their light.
"Master, I will definitely cultivate diligently and face my martial spirit squarely!"
"Hmm." Luo Can nodded with satisfaction.
Next, Luo Can introduced Ji Juechen to the other disciples. When Xiao Xiao saw Xiao Xiao, who was covered in electric arcs and transformed into a "ruthless pile driver" frantically attacking the iron stake, Ji Juechen was uncharacteristically stunned.
"This is... Xiao Xiao?"
A look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
That gentle and beautiful " Xiao Ding Douluo " actually looked like this when he was a child... art style.
"Yes, she's currently working hard to master a Self-Created Soul Skill. She's actually quite cute most of the time," Luo Can said with a smile.
Ji Juechen nodded.
It seems this girl has been stubborn since childhood. Her dedication to cultivating her Self-Created Soul Skill is quite in line with her personality.
After getting to know his disciples, Luo Can also had the Titan Giant Ape "Stone" and the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear " Xiong Da " become acquainted with Ji Juechen.
"For the next period of time, focus on your cultivation and consolidate your strength. Afterwards, I will arrange for someone to take you to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well," Luo Can said.
"Okay." Ji Juechen nodded.
Time flies, and three days have passed.
Qian Renxue has finally begun to condense her Soul Core.
On the Lake Heart Island, Luo Can watched her intently. She had been in meditation for half an hour, and the soul power within her body had completed its first compression.
Like Luo Can, Qian Renxue's soul power was almost solidified, making it much more difficult for her to condense Soul Core.
However, relying on the " Decomposition and Assimilation " ability of the Dark Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, she used it as a foundation to gradually erode and transform the solidified soul power. Although the progress was slow, it was very stable.
Sunrise and sunset.
It wasn't until the early hours of the next day that Qian Renxue finally succeeded in condensing the Soul Core.
Her Soul Core is like a miniature black hole, invisible to the naked eye, yet it continuously transforms all surrounding energy and matter into soul power, which is then assimilated into dark power.
Even Luo Can Can's spiritual energy couldn't escape her conversion.
"So this is the Soul Core? It's truly amazing..."
Qian Renxue slowly opened her eyes and murmured to herself.
Not to mention the increase in the total amount of soul power, the ability to rapidly convert and purify soul power alone can greatly enhance her endurance and the power of her Soul Skill.
Luo Can smiled and approached, " Xue'er, this is only a single Soul Core. What truly brings about a qualitative change in combat power is Dual Soul Cores. Moreover, basically every future Limit Douluo will be driven by dual cores."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue's eyes lit up instantly. She sat down in Luo Can's lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and whispered, "I'm really looking forward to the things in the future. Whether it's the Soul Core Method, the Soul Tool, the Soul Spirit, or even the Battle Armor, they all seem incredibly amazing to me. It's a pity that only you, my husband, can Fishing. Sometimes, I also want to try my luck."
Luo Can smiled and hugged her tighter:
"These things were originally developed by humans. If you want me to recruit more talented people in the future, wouldn't it be better for you to organize them into a team and develop them yourself?"
"Then my husband must work hard at Fishing. We still lack the talent we need." Qian Renxue smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
"Yes, perfect timing, it's time for Fishing today." Luo Can smiled and tightened his arms around her, holding her tightly in his embrace. With his other hand, he made a clenched fist in the air, and a silver fishing rod instantly materialized. "Come on, Xue'er, let's try tandem Fishing together."
