Xu Tiance’s Primordial Cells Martial Soul triggered extraordinary cell division, greatly increasing his strength and leaving Kong Deming astonished.

• Xu Tiance and Ye Guyi awoke the next morning, and Kong Deming said their fusion skill could defeat several Soul Elder-level opponents and that Ye Guyi directed it while Xu Tiance controlled the angel.
