Sun Moon Meditation Method

The temperature in the reception room suddenly rose, the air twisting along with it, and the surrounding soul tools emitted a faint humming sound.

Kong Deming's hand holding the teacup gave a violent jolt, scalding tea spilling across the table, but he did not react at all.

Those deep eyes stared fixedly at the sun in Xu Tianming's palm, his pupils suddenly contracting.

"Ultimate Martial Soul?"

Kong Deming's voice carried an undisguised shock, and with his knowledge, he could naturally tell that Xu Tianming's Sun Martial Soul was definitely no ordinary martial soul.

The essence of this sun had already surpassed the scope of top-tier martial souls; calling it a super martial soul presented no problem at all.

More importantly, it contained ultimate attributes within it.

Ultimate Fire.

Kong Deming's breathing grew rapid.

During the Holy War four thousand years ago, the reason the Sun Moon Empire suffered defeat was precisely because that Sea God's Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, who possessed the Ultimate Fire, led the original Three Douluo Kingdoms to defeat the Sun Moon Empire.

The empire was not only forced to sign a defeat treaty and cede territory with reparations, but even the name of the Sun Moon Continent was changed to the Douluo Continent.

This humiliation was always recorded in the archives of the Sun Moon Imperial Clan, and every generation of imperial family members had never forgotten it.

Yet now, a child possessing ultimate attributes had appeared right before him.

Kong Deming carefully sensed Xu Tianming's martial soul, and soon detected that it contained not just Ultimate Fire.

There was also Ultimate Light, along with an extremely domineering aura of destruction; the three forces intertwined with one another, all converging within that golden sun.

Kong Deming had lived for over a hundred and fifty years and had never witnessed such a powerful martial soul.

"Good!"

He suddenly stood up.

"Good, good, good!"

Because his movement was too hurried, the tea table in front of him was bumped into a sway, and the teacup fell to the ground, emitting a crisp sound.

Kong Deming paid no attention to it whatsoever, walking briskly over to Xu Tianming and pressing his hands onto his shoulders.

"Good child, what is your name?"

Xu Tianming answered respectfully, "Reporting to Master Kong, my name is Xu Tianming."

"Tianming..."

Kong Deming softly recited it once, a smile gradually appearing on his face.

"Tianming, a good name."

After a moment, he turned to look at Xu Mo, the excitement in his eyes gradually subsiding, replaced by a deep nuance.

"I know what you mean."

Xu Mo did not speak, and Kong Deming was silent for a moment before speaking slowly.

"As you wish."

"I will take this child in."

Joy immediately appeared on Xu Mo's face, and he hurriedly exchanged a glance with Xu Tianming. Xu Tianming understood immediately, dropping immediately to his knees on both knees to perform the master-acknowledgment ceremony toward Kong Deming.

"Disciple Xu Tianming pays respects to Master."

The crisp voice rang out in the reception room, and Kong Deming started slightly, then stroked his beard and laughed heartily.

"Good, good, good, quickly get up."

He personally helped Xu Tianming up, and the gaze he directed at this disciple already held a bit more affection and anticipation.

An ultimate martial soul—this was an ultimate martial soul! As long as he was nurtured properly, Xu Tianming was very likely to break the Sun Moon Empire's limitation of having no Super Douluo, and even had the chance to impact the legendary Limit Douluo realm.

As for the problem of the ultimate martial soul cultivating slowly from level thirty to level seventy, Kong Deming was not worried. The Sun Moon Empire might lack top-tier soul masters, but it had never lacked cultivation resources.

No matter how high the price, he would nurture this child, making Xu Tianming the future pride of the Sun Moon Empire and allowing the empire to wash away the humiliation it once endured.

After leaving the imperial palace, Xu Tianming sat inside the soul tool car, toying with a silver ring in his hand.

The surface of the ring lacked excessive decoration, engraved with only a few fine silver patterns, and a faint light occasionally swept across the lines.

This was a Storage Soul Tool, and also the apprenticeship gift Kong Deming gave him.

The space inside the ring was extremely vast, far exceeding ordinary Storage Soul Tools. According to Xu Tianming's estimation, the space inside approached that of a small warehouse, and putting down a large amount of supplies would not make it appear crowded.

This was not surprising.

Kong Deming's natal soul tool, the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, inherently involved spatial attributes. His research in spatial soul tools was extremely profound, and the Storage Soul Tool he personally crafted was naturally incomparable to those of ordinary soul engineers.

Xu Tianming probed a wisp of soul power into the ring, feeling the stable spatial fluctuations within it, and felt quite satisfied in his heart with this master-acknowledgment gift.

Taking Kong Deming as his master was truly a fine move.

Kong Deming was not only the hall master of the Sun Moon Empire's Offering Hall, but also commanded the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Legion, and likewise possessed extremely high influence in the Hall of Virtue.

The current Hall Master of the Hall of Virtue, Jing Hongchen, was Kong Deming's disciple. One could say that Kong Deming was the supreme pillar of the entire soul engineering world.

As long as he was willing to speak up, the soul engineers of the Sun Moon Empire would all show some face. This layer of connection would be of immense help to Xu Tianming's future contention for the imperial throne.

Xu Mo evidently understood this point as well. Once the soul tool car returned to the War Prince's Residence, he merely sent Xu Tianming back to his quarters before hurrying away.

This War Prince still had many matters that required arrangement.

Xu Tianming pushed open the door and walked into his room, putting the silver ring onto his hand, and then sat cross-legged on the bed.

He did not rush to rest, instead beginning to cultivate the meditation method passed down by the Sun Moon Imperial Clan.

Sun Moon Meditation Method.

This was a top-tier meditation method secretly passed down within the Sun Moon Imperial family, capable of substantially raising a soul master's efficiency in absorbing heaven and earth elemental energy.

Xu Tianming closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. The soul tool lamps in the room gradually dimmed, leaving only the morning light filtering in from outside the window to fall upon the floor.

As the meditation method operated, the surrounding heaven and earth elemental energy was drawn in, transforming into tiny specks of light that slowly converged toward Xu Tianming.

Those specks of light were golden as well as red, mixed with faint fire and light auras. After entering Xu Tianming's body, they flowed slowly along his meridians, finally converging into his dantian.

The Sun Martial Soul behind Xu Tianming emerged accordingly, the golden sun wheel suspended behind him and emitting a warm glow.

The heaven and earth elemental energy in the room surged over continuously, absorbed and transformed by the Sun Martial Soul, ultimately turning into soul power belonging to Xu Tianming himself.

Time ticked by second by second, and the soul power within Xu Tianming's body grew slowly. This speed was not fast, and one could even say it was somewhat slow.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, a flash of contemplation crossing the depths of his gaze.

Indeed, without acquiring a soul ring, the cultivation speed is truly very slow.

Xu Tianming's soul power had already reached level ten, but simply lacked the attachment of a first soul ring, temporarily halting his cultivation from breaking through to level eleven.

Yet this did not mean he was unable to continue cultivating.

Before attaching a soul ring, a soul master could still absorb heaven and earth elemental energy and accumulate their own soul power, except that the soul power level would not undergo changes, and the promotion speed would also become extremely sluggish.

The Sun Moon Meditation Method was naturally a top-tier meditation method, capable of multiplying a soul master's cultivation efficiency several-fold, coupled with Xu Tianming's Innate Full Soul Power, his aptitude also belonged to the very top.

Pity that before acquiring a soul ring, no matter how top-tier a meditation method was, it proved useless.
