Adding a Soul Ring to Himself!

Martial Soul Fusion Skill!

At a time when, aside from Twin Martial Souls, soul bones reigned supreme!

The emergence of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was likewise an earth-shaking event.

At this time, how many people possessed Martial Soul Fusion Skills? Perhaps many had heard of them, but absolutely few had seen one. The most famous was the Hell White Tiger of the Dai and Zhu families of the Star Luo Empire.

Other than that, Martial Soul Fusion Skills were rarely heard of.

Soul bones were treasures born from rivers of blood, things all Soul Masters dreamed of obtaining. Twin Martial Souls were truly rare, even rarer still—perhaps one might not appear even among tens of thousands of people.

And Xu Xiao possessed Twin Martial Souls. He was the first on Douluo Continent, already satisfying their curiosity and broadening their horizons.

Now that Xu Xiao had said Yue Guan and Gui Mei could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they were indeed startled.

But compared to Xu Xiao's Twin Martial Souls, the shock was far less profound.

Yue Guan and Gui Mei believed Xu Xiao's words. Their eldest brother would not deceive them over something like this.

Martial Soul Fusion Skills were not as precious as soul bones or Twin Martial Souls, but they were still rare in this world. Naturally, they were excited.

"Big Brother, we believe you."

"But if Third Brother and I have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, why haven't we noticed it ourselves?"

Gui Mei's words struck a chord with Yue Guan.

They had met early because of Xu Xiao, yet after spending the past few years together, they had never discovered that they possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Even if they believed Xu Xiao, as the people at the heart of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they had not sensed a thing.

That was why the two had been somewhat doubtful when Xu Xiao first mentioned it. As the parties involved, they did not even know about it. Did that make sense?

Xu Xiao understood what they were thinking. After all, in the original story, the two had also needed a long period of adjustment before their Martial Soul Fusion Skill emerged.

The two had only just begun now. Their minds were still pure, without so many twists and turns. Their relationship was good, and they were sworn brothers. Tempering their Martial Soul Fusion Skill would only be easier.

Xu Xiao said, "That's because you haven't tried to work together."

"What I can say for certain is that the two of you possess a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, and it is very powerful."

"This Spirit Ascension Platform space was prepared specifically for you to work on your Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

"Only after experiencing life and death, after enduring hardships, will you be able to unleash it."

The two understood Xu Xiao's words. They needed to work together, needed to endure hardships until they could truly put themselves in each other's shoes. The moment their hearts connected would be when their Martial Soul Fusion Skill succeeded.

Just like in Lolo's Adventure, even Mount Tai Meteorite Fall required coordination.

Even Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's Hell White Tiger needed practice, didn't it? How could it possibly be so easy?

"Big Brother, then Third Brother and I will train here and strive to develop our Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

"Big Brother, leave this matter to us."

The two patted their chests as they promised. Since their eldest brother had said so, it definitely was not false. They were also curious about what their Martial Soul Fusion Skill would look like.

The two were filled with anticipation as well.

"Good, but don't rush for quick results. The more anxious you are, the less likely you are to succeed. Take it slowly," Xu Xiao reminded them, afraid that their impatience would make their efforts twice as hard for half the result.

The two nodded, then bade farewell to Xu Xiao and Dugu Bo before heading deeper inside.

This first level of space had been imprinted according to that snake's memories. Everything it had seen, heard, and experienced would appear here, and it was equally filled with danger.

When Xu Xiao and Dugu Bo came out, Dugu Bo seemed somewhat troubled.

Xu Xiao saw through him at once. "Fourth Brother, have you heard the saying, 'Heaven never creates a person without giving them a purpose'?"

Dugu Bo paused. He had thought he had hidden it well, but he had not expected Big Brother to notice anyway.

When he learned that Yue Guan and Gui Mei possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, he had become a little envious.

Among the few of them, it seemed he was the most useless.

Xu Xiao had Twin Martial Souls and the incredibly heaven-defying Spirit Pagoda. Yue Guan and Gui Mei now had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill as well. What did he have? It seemed like nothing...

Aside from having a slightly better family background than them, he had nothing else.

"B-Big Brother..." Dugu Bo stammered for a long while, unable to say anything.

"Big Brother, am I... holding you back?" Dugu Bo lowered his head. He was older, but at the end of the day, he was still just an immature child.

Xu Xiao gently patted his shoulder. "Heaven never creates a person without giving them a purpose, Fourth Brother. Your talent and your achievements will not fall below ours."

"Poison may be the path for your development. For so many years, your Dugu Family has understood poison far better than people like us."

"If you study it carefully and work hard, making your poison renowned throughout the continent will be easy."

"Everyone has their own path to walk. You simply haven't found yours yet. If you believe in Big Brother, try walking the path of poison."

"Besides, your martial soul has now evolved into a Poison Dragon. There is an Immortal Herb here called Aromatic Silk Beauty. It grants immunity to all poisons, allowing Fourth Brother to cultivate poison without harming yourself!"

Xu Xiao's words moved Dugu Bo to tears. After witnessing the talent of this group, he had truly become insecure. For a time, he had been lost, not knowing what to do next.

Yet Xu Xiao still patiently explained and guided him.

"Thank you, Big Brother!" Dugu Bo bowed to Xu Xiao. At that moment, it was as though he saw the road ahead of him.

Poison. Since his family could not be separated from poison, why not become an even more formidable poison-wielding family?

His martial soul was also a Poison Dragon, so why not carry it forward?

"Big Brother, I will become the Poison Douluo someday! I will make this title resound across the continent!" Dugu Bo patted his chest and said cheerfully.

Xu Xiao laughed as well. "Of course you can. For now, go cultivate. You can go to the Spirit Ascension Platform, or study poison here."

"Just don't neglect your cultivation."

Dugu Bo nodded seriously and turned toward the Spirit Pagoda. He needed to quickly raise the age of his Soul Rings. For now, he could not fall behind Yue Guan and Gui Mei.

Xu Xiao did not mind any of that. There was still one month until his appointment with Chen Jianjun.

Xu Xiao looked at his Spirit Pagoda, and with a thought, the Spirit Pagoda returned to its original form and appeared in his hand.

At the same time, Xu Xiao summoned his second martial soul.

He was going to conduct an experiment, one he himself was not sure would succeed.

He would use his first martial soul to add Soul Rings to his second martial soul.

The Spirit Pagoda could not overwrite the previous Soul Rings of another Spirit Pagoda, but could it work on his second martial soul?

If it could, then he could use the time difference to add Soul Rings to himself in the future.

He needed the ability to protect himself too. Although the first two martial souls might not be that good, the first few soul skills would be used less and less later on.

Thinking of the Little Scumbag from the original story, did anyone ever see him use his mother's Binding in the later stages? Of course not!

Most importantly, the Spirit Pagoda could bestow the most suitable Soul Rings, ones that matched the attributes most closely.

That was what Xu Xiao cared about.

Possessing a perfectly compatible Soul Ring with a considerable age limit—how many people dreamed of that?
