Amplification upon Amplification!

Ning Rongrong felt a vast, gentle power surge into her body like a warm current.

Her strength, speed, perception, and Soul Power intensity skyrocketed in an instant!

At the same time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda in her hand began to hum uncontrollably.

Ning Rongrong looked down instinctively. The originally exquisite, translucent pagoda had somehow acquired a faint jade-green sheen.

A phantom image of a Green Lotus even appeared vaguely at its tip, slowly rotating.

"Th-this is..."

Ning Rongrong's eyes widened, and even her breathing stalled for a moment.

She could clearly sense that her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda seemed to have undergone some kind of sublimation. Even the speed at which her Soul Power circulated had increased severalfold.

"Y-you call this amplification? Isn't it way too absurd?"

"Don't praise it yet. Try it and see whether your amplification has changed," Jiang Chen urged.

"Alright!"

Ning Rongrong suppressed the shock in her heart. The Soul Rings beneath her feet lit up, and her clear voice trembled faintly with excitement.

"Seven Treasures Famous: First, Strength! Second, Speed!"

As her words fell, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda erupted with brilliance!

Seven-colored streams of light, more dazzling than ever before, poured forth and instantly enveloped Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Tang San ahead.

The three of them shuddered at once, feeling the enhancements within their bodies suddenly grow far stronger.

Bang!

A muffled boom several times heavier than before exploded, and Xiao Wu's kick actually made Zhao Wuji's massive body sway slightly!

"Hmm?"

Zhao Wuji glanced at Xiao Wu in surprise. How had this girl's strength suddenly increased so much?

At the same time, Zhu Zhuqing had already turned into a blurred afterimage. The shrill sound of claws tearing through the air was piercing as they carved a succession of dazzling sparks across Zhao Wuji's protective golden light!

"Now that's something!"

A sharp glint flashed in Zhao Wuji's eyes. He finally put away some of his casualness as his third Soul Ring lit up once more. The gravitational pressure abruptly intensified, attempting to limit the two girls' speed.

Yet even under the crushing pressure, the amplified Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing remained agile and swift. Their attacks came like a tide, leaving Zhao Wuji briefly struggling to keep up.

"What's going on?!"

Even Zhao Wuji was not foolish enough to miss the abnormality.

He could clearly feel that the three of them were several times faster and stronger than before. They could even break free of the suppression from Gravity Enhancement.

"Damn it, these support-types are such a pain! If I'd known, I wouldn't have held back just now!"

But it was already too late for regrets.

Enhanced by Ning Rongrong, the three little monsters coordinated flawlessly, their attacks surging like waves and genuinely leaving him flustered.

Tang San's control was especially troublesome. Every time he struck, it came precisely at the instant when Zhao Wuji's old strength had been exhausted and his new strength had yet to emerge.

Combined with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's ghostlike harassment, he had taken no fewer than ten attacks in just ten breaths.

None of them were fatal, but it was infuriating!

The mighty Immovable Bright King, a level seventy-six Soul Saint, was actually being beaten back by three Soul Grandmasters!

How was he supposed to show his face if word got out?

"It worked!"

Ning Rongrong cried out excitedly, looking at Jiang Chen as though he were some kind of monster. "Your amplification... it really can strengthen my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! Those two enhancements just now definitely exceeded one hundred percent!"

That was a group-wide enhancement of more than double!

Even if her father were here, he probably could not achieve such a thing.

Not only that, Ning Rongrong could also feel that after receiving Jiang Chen's amplification, her Martial Soul seemed to have briefly undergone some kind of evolution.

A term immediately came to mind.

Martial Soul Fusion Skill!

Jiang Chen nodded, holding the Green Lotus as he fell into thought.

"It seems my idea was right. Holy Radiance can not only directly enhance a Soul Master's attributes, but also temporarily improve the effectiveness of support-type Martial Souls."

"Interesting..."

But only mildly interesting.

This kind of enhancement was far inferior to directly amplifying someone himself.

Wait!

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of something. Since his amplification-type Soul Skills could indirectly boost the abilities of support-type Soul Masters

Could the golden-light state of the Glazed Green Lotus act directly on other Martial Souls?

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

The Glazed Green Lotus's golden-light state was used by merging into the body, so why could it not merge directly into another Martial Soul?

Would that not mean he could use Martial Soul Fusion Skills with any Martial Soul!?

Ning Rongrong stared at Jiang Chen's thoughtful profile, her heart churning.

His Soul Skill could actually make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve for a short time. If Father found out, wouldn't he tie Jiang Chen up and drag him back to the sect overnight?

Besides, did the combination of their Soul Skills count as a Martial Soul Fusion Skill?

I actually have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with a man...

As Ning Rongrong thought about it, her little face gradually grew hot.

Roar!

Just as the two were lost in their own thoughts, a heavy roar suddenly rang out across the field.

Zhao Wuji was in a thoroughly sorry state. His clothes were torn all over, and several swollen lumps had even risen on his face.

Although the Immovable Bright King True Body could make him immune to most damage, the pain of being struck was very real.

Combined with Tang San's endless hidden weapons, this battle had been frustrating beyond words.

"Damn it! Today, I'll make you see what a real Soul Saint is!"

Zhao Wuji took a deep breath. The ink-black sixth Soul Ring beneath his feet lit up, and the Soul Power around him surged wildly!

"Sixth Soul Skill, Great Strength Vajra..."

"Teacher Zhao, time's up!"

Before Zhao Wuji could finish roaring, Oscar suddenly interrupted him.

Hearing this, Zhao Wuji froze mid-motion. The Soul Skill he had been building up was forcibly choked back, and his entire face flushed red.

Zhao Wuji slowly turned his head and stared at the bare incense stick, the corner of his eye twitching violently.

His lips moved as though he wanted to curse, but the breath caught in his throat could neither rise nor fall. In the end, he could only let out an unwilling "Hmph."

Jiang Chen leisurely put away the Glazed Green Lotus. "Teacher Zhao, we passed, right?"

Zhao Wuji glared fiercely at him, then swept his gaze over the other little monsters who were clearly holding back laughter. He squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Pass! All of you pass!"

With that, he withdrew his Martial Soul, turned around, and headed into the mountains behind him.

Before long, waves of furious roars suddenly echoed from within the mountains, accompanied by repeated sounds of impacts.

Hearing the commotion, Jiang Chen smiled.

Teacher Zhao, I'm helping you here.

If you hurt Tang San today, that person lurking in the shadows would come knocking.

"Uh, well, Teacher Zhao probably won't be back anytime soon."

Oscar scratched his head and said with an awkward grin, "You can rest here for now. I'll take you to register properly later."

After fighting intensely for the time it took an incense stick to burn, and against a Soul Saint at that, everyone except Jiang Chen was utterly exhausted.

Fighting while amplified had felt great, but the aftereffects were obvious. After overtaxing their bodies, waves of soreness spread through them.

Noticing Xiao Wu blinking her big eyes at him, Jiang Chen still summoned the Glazed Green Lotus to heal everyone.

"Bzz~"

Emerald-green light shone once more, enveloping everyone again.
