The Concept of Soul-Guided Armor!

The difficulty of combining these three things is far from ordinary.

The first step is to acquire a soul bone that shares the same origin as one's own martial soul; this step alone is enough to discourage most people.

Most people would rather absorb the soul bone themselves than waste such a precious resource on a so-called Soul Tool, let alone one that must be of the same origin as their own martial soul.

Because a soul bone possesses its own spiritual essence of flesh and blood, it can communicate with the human body's meridians and the origin of the martial soul, naturally serving as a biological bridge between the martial soul and the Soul Tool.

The martial soul origin is the innate soul power a soul master is born with, which is why it is used as the permanent power source for a Soul Tool.

Only after a Soul Tool meets these two conditions can it truly transform into an external extension of the martial soul.

Take, for example, Xian Lin'er's Green Flame Dragon Spear, or Kong Deming's future Silver Moon Protective Shield.

However, compared to the latter, Xian Lin'er's Green Flame Dragon Spear only combines a portion of her martial soul's origin, making it more like a simplified version.

Kong Deming is different; he combined his entire martial soul origin with his Soul Tool, achieving a true, perfect fusion—a complete version.

The one who truly brought this theory to its peak was the later Ice Extreme War God Armor of the legendary Huo, which also served as the prototype for the future Battle Armor.

As everyone knows, most people only possess one martial soul origin, unless they have Twin Martial Souls.

Mu Guiyun is different; his eight elements are not interconnected, meaning each element is his own martial soul origin!

Not only the eight elements, but even his innate Seventh Sense can be counted as an independent martial soul origin.

Thinking of this, Mu Guiyun felt his hands itching, desperate to rush into the laboratory right now to prove his theory.

"Alright, all you need to do now is focus on your cultivation."

Xian Lin'er stretched out her jade hand to wave in front of Mu Guiyun, chuckling, "With your current Soul Power Level, you can't even handle the most basic soul bone carving."

Seeing his train of thought interrupted, Mu Guiyun could only helplessly return to reality.

"Hehe!"

Being with Mu Guiyun seemed to make Xian Lin'er feel as if she had returned to her carefree student days, and her tone became much lighter: "Guiyun, why don't you come to the Spirit Tool Department? You know exactly what kind of person that old fox Yan Shaozhe is."

While trying to win Mu Guiyun over, Xian Lin'er did not forget to belittle Yan Shaozhe.

Hearing this, Mu Guiyun couldn't help but smile: "I'll consider it."

Seeing that Mu Guiyun still refused to commit, Xian Lin'er was suddenly furious. She poked his forehead hard with her jade finger, gritting her teeth: "Consider it? How long have you been considering it! I think you, little brat, just look down on our Spirit Tool Department!"

"I didn't, I don't, don't you go slandering me!"

Mu Guiyun shook his head, delivering a triple denial.

Both Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er had watched him grow up since he was a child, and Mu Guiyun didn't want to hurt one side by choosing the other.

He simply threw the difficult problem to Mu En.

Since you both want to fight over me, go argue at the Sea God Pavilion meeting; Mu En will have the final say anyway.

Besides, only children make choices!

"It's getting so late, Senior Sister is leaving now."

Looking at the sky that had turned completely dark outside, Mu Guiyun prepared to stand up and leave, only to find that his palm had been held by Xian Lin'er at some point.

Seeing this, a trace of confusion flashed in Mu Guiyun's eyes: "Senior Sister, what's wrong?"

"That... why don't you stay here tonight? You haven't been back in a long time."

Xian Lin'er's eyes flickered, her mind involuntarily drifting back to what happened that afternoon.

The next morning, Mu Guiyun hurried toward the Sea God Pavilion. Since he needed to use soul bones, he decided to ask his teacher for some funding.

Stopping in front of the familiar small room, Mu Guiyun hadn't even knocked when Mu En's voice reached his ears: "Child, come in."

Hearing this, Mu Guiyun pushed open the door and smiled: "Teacher, I've come to see you."

"See me? Hahaha, don't I know your personality? You wouldn't visit the temple without a reason. Tell me, what difficulty have you encountered this time?"

Mu En smiled and shook his head, gesturing: "Push me out for a walk."

"Hehe."

Seeing his little scheme seen through, Mu Guiyun chuckled, stepped forward, and pushed Mu En out of the Sea God Pavilion.

"Teacher, could you give me a few low-tier soul bones? The age doesn't matter, a few thousand years is fine, but it would be best if the attributes are Wind, Metal, or Lightning."

As the old man and the young man walked on Sea God Island, Mu Guiyun stated the purpose of his visit.

If there is one thing Shrek Academy is second to none in, it is the quantity of soul bones; no other power on the continent dares to claim the top spot!

At the Shrek Academy Treasure Auction, many soul bones appear every year, and they are never the same!

This shows just how terrifying Shrek Academy's soul bone reserves truly are!

Low-tier soul bones?

Mu En subconsciously frowned and asked: "What do you need these for?"

Mu Guiyun immediately explained his vision to Mu En.

Hearing this, Mu En fell into silence. After a long while, he replied unhurriedly: "I agree to this. Tomorrow morning, I will have someone send the soul bones to you."

"However, do not spread the word. You should understand the principle that a man who carries a jade ring commits no crime, but the possession of it is the crime."

"Rest assured, Teacher, I am well aware of that principle."

Mu Guiyun smiled faintly; he was hardly a loudmouth.

Finally, Mu En cracked a small joke: "You brat wouldn't lose your composure and end up absorbing these spirit bones yourself, would you?"

Absorb these spirit bones? How could that be!

If I were to actually absorb such junk, wouldn't my transmigration have been in vain!

Knowing Mu En was joking, Mu Guiyun simply didn't answer, asking about Zhang Lexuan instead: "Teacher, how is the Senior Sister doing?"

In the original work, Zhang Lexuan had risked her life to absorb that 100,000-year spirit ring while severely wounded. Although she succeeded in the end, she had to spend two full years recovering due to the severity of her injuries.

Seeing Mu Guiyun take the initiative to bring up Zhang Lexuan, Mu En immediately revealed a mysterious smile: "Although that 100,000-year spirit ring caused Lexuan some minor injuries, it is not a major issue. With Xiao Zhuang here, she will be fully recovered in a few days."

Hearing this, Mu Guiyun nodded immediately.

The Xiao Zhuang mentioned by Mu En was one of the Sea God Pavilion elders.

He possessed the top-tier healing-type martial soul, the Tree of Life, and his cultivation had reached an astonishing level 96.

"Right, that child Lexuan asked me to give this to you. As for how to handle it, see to it yourself."

Mu En took a jade box from his Soul Tool and handed it to Mu Guiyun.

Mu Guiyun opened it to take a look, only to see a deep purple bone, shaped like a spine, lying quietly inside.
