Primordial Cells

Another Martial Soul?

Kong Deming was slightly taken aback, unable to process what Xu Tiance meant for a moment. After reacting for a long time, Kong Deming finally came to his senses, a look of shock appearing on his face as well:

"You mean that, just like Xu He, you also have Twin Martial Souls? What is your second Martial Soul?"

Kong Deming's breathing suddenly became rapid, and his eyes grew even more intense.

"My second Martial Soul is the cells inside my own body. The Martial Soul is named Primordial Cells. Perhaps because this Martial Soul is rather special, I cannot manifest it outwardly."

Primordial Cells?

Kong Deming was slightly taken aback once more.

Having lived for so long, this was the first time he had ever heard of such a strange Martial Soul. Using one's own cells as a Martial Soul... From the perspective of Martial Souls, this should count as a Body Martial Soul, right?

No wonder he felt that Xu Tiance's physique differed from ordinary people when he had just extended his hand and used his Soul Power to probe Xu Tiance's physical condition.

It was just that... how should this Primordial Cells Martial Soul be cultivated, and what kind of Soul Rings should be added to it?

Although Kong Deming was an undisputed top-tier figure in the field of Soul Tools, in the field of Martial Souls... especially the Body Martial Soul field, this was definitely not his forte. The only thing he could confirm was the grade of this Primordial Cells Martial Soul—one of the most important conditions for Twin Martial Souls was that the quality of the two Martial Souls must be the same. Since the Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul had already reached the level of an Ultimate Martial Soul, the Primordial Cells Martial Soul would certainly not be inferior.

As for the Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul, he could still formulate the types of Soul Beasts to hunt and the direction of development based on the Sun Martial Soul and Silver Moon Martial Soul of the Sun Moon Empire's royal family. But for the Primordial Cells Martial Soul, he was completely in the dark.

Kong Deming thought of the Body Sect at the very first moment.

Although the Body Sect had gradually lived in seclusion and faded from the continent after the death of the previous sect master, Du Bisou, as the stabilizing pillar of the Sun Moon Empire, he naturally knew of the Body Sect's existence. If there was any sect or academy that knew how to cultivate Tiance's Primordial Cells Martial Soul, that sect was undoubtedly the Body Sect.

It was just that... the Sun Moon Empire and the Body Sect could practically be described as having zero intersection. Moreover, Kong Deming had heard that the Body Sect was particularly repulsive toward Soul Tools and had never held any goodwill toward people from the Sun Moon Empire.

Kong Deming took a deep breath, his gaze landing back on Xu Tiance, and a few more traces of solemnity added to his voice: "Tiance, from now on, you will focus on cultivating the Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul and add Soul Rings to it first. As for the Primordial Cells Martial Soul... do not add Soul Rings to it for the time being. Wait until the Sun Moon Empire and the Body Sect reach a cooperation in the future before considering the matter of adding Soul Rings to the Primordial Cells Martial Soul."

With that, Kong Deming paused, a thoughtful look surfacing in his eyes.

Before confirming the attributes of the Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul and without knowing that Xu Tiance also possessed the Primordial Cells Martial Soul, Kong Deming had actually intended to train Xu Tiance to become a Soul Engineer.

But looking at it now, Xu Tiance was clearly more talented in the path of the Soul Master. Learning to craft Soul Tools and becoming a Soul Engineer... would instead be somewhat a waste of time. Furthermore, Kong Deming had also once heard that Soul Masters possessing Ultimate Attribute Martial Souls would experience a drastic slowdown in cultivation speed during their early stages of cultivation, and only after reaching Soul Saint cultivation could their cultivation speed far exceed that of other Soul Masters.

Since his cultivation speed was already on the slower side, if he were to spend time and energy researching Soul Tools as well, his cultivation speed would undoubtedly slow down even further.

Thinking of this, Kong Deming spoke softly: "Before this, I actually intended to make you a Soul Engineer. After all, the Silver Moon Martial Soul itself possesses a certain Mental Attribute, and this Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul of yours will undoubtedly grant you mental power far exceeding that of ordinary people, making it even more suitable for crafting Soul Tools. But looking at it now, you are not suited to become a Soul Engineer—at least, you should not waste too much time on crafting Soul Tools."

"However, my Sun Moon Empire is, after all, prolific in Soul Tools. Even without crafting Soul Tools yourself, you can still become a Practical-Control Soul Engineer."

"The so-called Practical-Control Soul Engineer refers to a Soul Master who lacks the talent for crafting Soul Tools, but is able to skillfully use Soul Tools. I do not require you to spend time crafting Soul Tools, but you must be able to skillfully master and utilize Soul Tools. With your Soul Master talent, coupled with the most advanced Soul Tools of the Sun Moon Empire, you will definitely be able to become a true powerhouse."

Listening to Kong Deming's explanation, Xu Tiance nodded, keeping everything he said in his heart.

Kong Deming's arrangement was actually not much different from his own plans. He had originally intended to focus on the Sun-Moon Radiance Martial Soul; as for the Primordial Cells Martial Soul... although there was no need to add Soul Rings to it for the time being, relying on the characteristics of this Martial Soul, he could still conduct some development and unleash unexpected effects.

After all, cells possessed multiple functions such as division, proliferation, differentiation, mutation, immunity, and metabolism. As long as he continuously developed these capabilities, the cell Martial Soul could likewise provide him with formidable combat prowess even without adding Soul Rings.

As for Soul Tools... Kong Deming's arrangement could be said to deeply accord with his wishes.

Crafting Soul Tools or whatever could be forgotten. Anyway, his teacher was the foremost Soul Engineer of the current era; powerful and matching Soul Tools were things he would never lack. He only needed to skillfully utilize the Soul Tools crafted by Kong Deming, and that would be enough.

"Starting from today, you will live in the Offering Hall. As for your father's side, I will send someone to explain the situation to him."

"Rest for the night today, and tomorrow I will take you to hunt for Soul Rings."

Hunting for Soul Rings directly like this? If he went to hunt for Soul Rings just like this, the age of the Soul Rings might not be very high!

Before hunting for Soul Rings, he simply had to get some whale rubber from the must-eat list to consume first.

Moreover, the Soul Beasts of the Sun Moon Empire... apart from the Soul Beasts in the Evil Demon Forest, the quality of the other two Soul Beast gathering grounds was not quite up to par. Yet the Evil Demon Forest probably didn't have many Soul Beasts matching his attributes either.

Within the Evil Demon Forest, there were mostly Soul Beasts with attributes like mental and dark.

"Your Martial Soul is of an Ultimate Attribute, and ordinary Soul Beasts cannot satisfy your Soul Ring requirements. Therefore, tomorrow I will take you to the Star Dou Great Forest of the Douluo Continent. There, there are bound to be Soul Beasts suitable for you."

Of course, Kong Deming had a second half sentence that he didn't spell out.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he also wanted to scout out the specific location of the Body Sect.

It would be best if they could directly reach a cooperation with the Body Sect; if cooperation could not be achieved, at least they needed to know where the Body Sect was located. In the future, when Tiance needed to hunt for Soul Rings for the Primordial Cells Martial Soul, it would also make it easier to conduct some transactions with the Body Sect.
