Qiankun Continent, Sword Martial Palace.
Cultivation Chamber.
"Time to keep cultivating."
Qin Hao glanced at the destruction doppelganger, who sat motionless where he was, without the slightest trace of life, and exhaled softly before sitting down cross-legged himself.
"There are still two steps left to reconstruct the destruction doppelganger: divine soul separation and Divine Soul Return."
Reconstructing a doppelganger through the Thousand Shadows Spirit Transformation Art involved four steps in total. When Devil Master Thunder Prison had attacked earlier, Qin Hao had been carrying out the second step, Divine Soul Fusion.
The doppelganger's divine soul was fused with that of the true self.
Only after completing the second step had Qin Hao temporarily halted the reconstruction and found the time to deal with Devil Master Thunder Prison.
Although the first two steps were complete, the third and fourth remained immensely important. The slightest mistake could cause the reconstruction to fail.
Most importantly...
"There aren't many Divine Soul Treasures left."
Qin Hao's brows furrowed slightly.
Through his earlier cultivation, he had already refined most of the Divine Soul Treasures Dao Lord Zhǐtiān had sent him. Only a scant few remained.
Completely reconstructing the destruction doppelganger with so few Divine Soul Treasures was almost impossible.
"I have to use the Red Moon Gem."
Qin Hao drew a deep breath, his expression grave. "The divine soul power in the Red Moon Gem is completely different from the divine soul power in Divine Soul Treasures, but I can't afford to worry about that now. I have to keep cultivating."
Suppressing his thoughts, Qin Hao resumed his cultivation. If he wanted to venture into the Outer Domain, he first had to increase his strength as much as possible.
Otherwise, once he reached the Outer Domain, a single careless moment could expose him to tremendous danger.
