Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's levels soared
Seeing Huo Lei's flustered actions, Shui Bing'er couldn't help but chuckle, "This is the first time I've seen Huo Lei so embarrassed since I've known him."
Xue Wu stood to the side, chuckling softly without saying a word.
"Who says otherwise?" An Jun chuckled in agreement.
Huo Lei, which was flying inside the cave, suddenly sneezed and muttered to itself, "Could I have caught a cold? That can't be! I'm Soul Sage, how could I catch a cold! Someone must be thinking of me."
Huo Lei, flying inside the cave, had no idea that Shui Bing'er, who liked him, was teasing him behind his back.
"Huo Lei, you..." Yunxiang looked at Huo Lei, who was flying towards her at high speed, in surprise.
Huo Lei retracted his Thunder Wings and landed in front of Yunxiang. Seeing her stunned expression, he asked in confusion, "Yunxiang, what's wrong?"
Yunxiang pointed at Huo Lei and stammered, "Wings... wings!"
"Oh! I forgot to tell you, these wings are my External Soul Bone. Don't make such a fuss, you'll get used to it after spending more time with me. My Soul Power is almost depleted, quickly give me some Strawberry to restore my Soul Power." Huo Lei, his face somewhat pale, urged Yunxiang.
"Oh! Okay." Yunxiang replied somewhat bewilderedly, and took out three pink Strawberry from her Storage Ring, handing them to Huo Lei.
Huo Lei took the Strawberry directly from Yunxiang's hand, stuffed all three into his mouth, chewed them casually a couple of times, and then swallowed them.
Yunxiang circled Huo Lei, looking him up and down as if he were a work of art, and exclaimed in amazement, "Huo Lei, you have so many good things! You even have the legendary External Soul Bone. It's unbelievable!"
After Huo Lei consumed three Strawberry that restored his Soul Power, he not only recovered most of his Soul Power, but his complexion also became rosy.
He looked at Yunxiang and smiled, "Just good luck. You should keep this to yourself and not tell anyone. As long as you stick with us, you'll have good luck all the time. Look at Senior An Jun, Bing'er, Xue Wu, and of course you too, they all already have their own Soul Bone."
"Oh! By the way, I have another good news for you. The method I mentioned has worked after testing. The three of them are cultivating inside! We've encountered a great opportunity this time. The Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow can rapidly increase Bing'er and Xue Wu's Soul Power Level. I think it won't be long before they undergo a complete transformation."
"Don't worry, I'm not that big-mouthed, I won't go around telling everyone. This is indeed a great opportunity, but unfortunately I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy it." Yunxiang showed a hint of disappointment.
"Let me think about it, maybe not! You can copy Bing'er's Martial Soul, right? Maybe you can also benefit from the Ten Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow!" Huo Lei's eyes gleamed with a strange light.
"That's just copying, how can it benefit from it?" Yunxiang said with a hint of helplessness.
Huo Lei feigned mockery, saying, "Alas! Someone so devoted to studying Martial Soul has failed to understand his Martial Soul. How pathetic!"
"All you do is make fun of others, acting like you know everything," Yunxiang muttered softly.
Upon hearing Yunxiang's mutterings, Huo Lei's competitive spirit suddenly flared up, and he said, "What? You're not convinced? Then let me analyze it for you. Your Strawberry Martial Soul has diverse color variations and is very versatile in terms of support, which proves that your Martial Soul has great inclusiveness. Since you can copy ice-attribute Martial Soul, you can naturally absorb ice-attribute energy. Besides, isn't your Sixth Soul Ring a White Ice Strawberry? As long as you convert the absorbed ice-attribute energy, it should be fine. Do you think my analysis makes sense?"
Yunxiang scratched her head awkwardly, a hint of joy on her face, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Huo Lei, I underestimated you just now. You do understand things more deeply and thoroughly than I do. What you said just now sounded very reasonable. After your analysis, I feel that it might actually work."
"Actually, I've always considered myself a support character without any combat ability. The reason I initially became obsessed with Martial Soul research was to break the conventional notion that Strawberry Martial Soul are only for support. I also wanted to fight as freely as Battle Soul Master, but I never found a way. Before obtaining my Sixth Soul Ring, I had already resigned myself to the fact that I would be a support character for life. It wasn't until I obtained the Mirror Shadow Beast's Soul Ring and gained the ability to copy Soul Skill that I realized that Martial Soul really can change direction."
"However, given how sensitive I am to the cold, I don't think I can directly absorb and convert ice attributes."
Huo Lei calmly replied, "If someone helps you convert it, filtering out the ice attribute, and then transfers the Soul Power to you, wouldn't that work?"
Yunxiang's dark eyes shone brightly as she excitedly exclaimed, "This method is great! I think it will work. Senior An Jun and Sister Bing'er should both be able to do it!"
Huo Lei said, "We'll see when we try. If it really works, then you're in luck. But for now, let the two of them improve first. You can cultivate on your own. Your most important task right now is to store up as many amplification Strawberry as possible; they can come in handy at a crucial moment."
"Thank you so much, Huo Lei. I've learned a lot since I started hanging out with everyone. Your analysis of my Martial Soul has given me more confidence. As long as there's hope, I'm not in a hurry. Don't worry about the Strawberry, I'll stock up on more." Yunxiang's face was full of smiles, sincere and natural.
"Don't mention it, we're all partners. You should hurry up and cultivate! I'm going to check on the teacher and the Bear King, and then I'll come back to cultivate." Huo Lei said to Yun Xiang before walking out of the cave.
The days of cultivation always pass quickly; in the blink of an eye, half a month has gone by.
During these two weeks, Shui Bing'er, Xue Wu, and An Jun would go out of the cave once a day. Besides eating and chatting with everyone, they would also relax a bit.
Besides cultivating, Huo Lei prepares food for everyone, and sometimes he chats with his teacher and the Bear King.
Besides cultivating, Yunxiang makes various Strawberry that can play a supporting role. Occasionally, she will visit Jin Shan and Xiongwang to chat with them.
Over the course of half a month, the Snow Soul Bear King behaved very friendly and its injuries had healed. At the same time, it got along better and better with Huo Lei and his group, and they got to know each other better.
Most notably, Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's cultivation speed was remarkable. Their Soul Power increased like a flood bursting its banks, unstoppable and unstoppable.
In just half a month, Shui Bing'er rose from Level 62 to Level 70, leaving everyone speechless with astonishment.
Xue Wu's absorption of the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow was not as fast as Shui Bing'er's. But even so, in half a month, her Soul Power increased from Level 62 to Level 66, a full four levels higher, which was faster than the efficiency of a year of training.
As for An Jun, because he was Titled Douluo with a very high level, and most of the energy he absorbed from the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow was transferred to Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu, his Soul Power did not increase much, only reaching the peak of level ninety-three.
Half a month later, Shui Bing'er, Xue Wu, and An Jun all stopped absorbing the Ten-Thousand-Year Profound Ice Marrow and took a short rest. The reason was simple: Shui Bing'er had reached Level 70 and it was time to add her Seventh Soul Ring.
