In a restaurant in Suotuo City, Lu Yu, Huo Wu, and Huo Zhengyang found a window seat and ordered a table full of food and drinks.
The food was served one after another, its aroma filling the air.
Huo Wu had long forgotten the unpleasantness in the Star Dou Great Forest. She picked up her chopsticks and ate her food in small bites, occasionally stealing glances at Lu Yu.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Yu inquired about the details of the Ring Fusion again.
" Huo Wu, tell me more carefully, what exactly did you feel inside your body when you activated the Ring Fusion?"
Huo Wu her mouth full of food, Huo Wu mumbled, "What else could I feel? I can just think about it, and the Soul Power of the two Soul Ring connects on its own."
"No obstacles, no other sensations?" Lu Yu continued to press.
"No," Huo Wu shook her head. "It's simple. I don't even know why you're so curious."
Lu Yu turned to look at Huo Zhengyang, who was drinking tea to the side.
Huo Zhengyang put down his teacup and explained softly, "This is an innate talent of Soul Master; their Soul Ring are naturally unblocked. Others 'Soul Ring are layered and isolated, so no matter how much you train, you can't connect them."
Lu Yu lowered his head in thought, "Soul Ring have no barriers!?"
Lu Yu was only focused on Ring Fusion and had no interest in the delicious food in front of her.
After a satisfying meal, Lu Yu paid the bill.
"Senior, let me arrange a quiet inn for you to stay for a few days."
Huo Zhengyang smiled slightly and did not refuse, "Then I'll have to trouble you, young friend."
Lu Yu found a quiet inn nearby, helped the two of them check in, and only after confirming everything was settled did she return to her own courtyard alone.
In the courtyard, Lu Fei and Lin Tian were quietly cultivating.
Upon hearing the door open, both of them opened their eyes simultaneously.
Lu Fei immediately stood up, his face beaming with joy. "Brother, you're back! Did the Soul Hunting go well?"
Lu Yu smiled faintly, and with a thought, four Soul Ring slowly rose up.
White, white, white, black.
The fourth, pitch-black, Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring instantly filled the courtyard with its oppressive aura.
" Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!" Lu Fei's eyes widened, his face beaming with joy for his brother.
"Brother, you're amazing!"
Lin Tian stared at the black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, his eyes filled with envy. He had only absorbed a nine-thousand-year Soul Ring after breaking through level 40.
Lu Yu noticed the strange look in Lin Tian's eyes, patted Lin Tian on the shoulder, and spoke gently.
"Don't envy me. Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring causes mental shock. I don't know how to test the strength of one's mental power. If you forcibly absorb Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, at best you'll become an idiot, at worst you'll die on the spot."
Lu Yu paused for a moment, then continued to comfort her.
"Moreover, your Fourth Soul Ring has a lifespan of nine thousand years. Looking across the entire continent, even the Fourth Soul Ring of Titled Douluo is inferior to yours."
Lin Tian felt relieved upon hearing this and slowly nodded.
Lu Yu's expression turned slightly serious as she explained, "I'll be discussing cultivation insights with a senior for the next few days, so I won't be back for a while. You two focus on your cultivation and don't worry about me."
"Don't worry, brother! I will definitely cultivate diligently." Lu Fei immediately replied.
Lin Tian nodded in agreement.
After giving his instructions, Lu Yu turned and left the courtyard, returning to the inn.
Inside the inn room, Huo Zhengyang was resting with his eyes closed, while Huo Wu sat at the table, idly lost in thought.
Hearing the knock on the door, Huo Zhengyang slightly opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips.
Huo Wu turned her head to look at the doorway, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Lu Yu."
Huo Wu glanced at the leisurely Huo Zhengyang, then got up and opened the door. "Why are you here again?"
Lu Yu looked at her and said directly, "I promised you, I'll teach you two Self-Created Soul Skill."
Huo Wu instantly perked up, her face full of anticipation. "You really want to teach me? No conditions?"
Lu Yu nodded then shook her head. "Just show me how to use the Ring Fusion a few more times."
Upon hearing this, Huo Wu frowned immediately. "Why are you so stubborn? Ring Fusion is an innate talent of Soul Master; you can't learn it."
But seeing the longing look on Lu Yu's face, Huo Wu waved her hand helplessly.
"Fine, since you taught me how to Self-Created Soul Skill, I'll reluctantly show you!"
Huo Wu stepped aside to let Lu Yu in. Lu Yu walked into the room and looked around. The room was quite big, so there was no need to look for another place.
For the people of the Douluo Continent, acupoints are like a heavenly book; Lu Yu only told Lu Fei about acupoints.
Now, when teaching Huo Wu " The Proud Dragon Repents" and " The Flying Dragon in the Heavens," Lu Yu only tells Huo Wu the movement path when performing them.
Huo Wu practiced the Soul Power circulation route that Lu Yu had described for a while, and the more she practiced, the deeper her frown became.
"No, the Soul Power will break down as it travels. It's not as convenient as my Ring Fusion; I can do it just by thinking about it."
Lu Yu scratched his head, wondering if the techniques of the Acupoint Blue Star were really that difficult to practice.
Lu Yu thought for a moment. The fusion of two Soul Ring only requires thinking about it in his mind. This in itself represents a kind of talent. There is no need to follow the rules. Perhaps he can change his approach.
Lu Yu looked at Huo Wu again, "Then try operating it according to your will, following the route I gave you, without changing the general direction."
"Remember, stop immediately if you feel uncomfortable; don't force yourself."
Lu Yu emphasized.
He knew that if the cultivation technique was used incorrectly, it could lead to qi deviation and backlash from the meridians. Although he didn't know if qi deviation existed in Douluo, it was better to be safe than sorry than to regret it later.
Huo Wu, sitting Huo Wu on the ground, blinked, somewhat hesitantly, "Is it really possible?"
Lu Yu thought for a moment and then said, " Self-Created Soul Skill is inherently the most suitable Soul Skill for Soul Master. The operating path I provided suits me, but I don't know if it suits you."
Huo Zhengyang, who was standing to the side, was about to speak up to stop Huo Wu from circulating her Soul Power as she pleased, but after hearing Lu Yu's words, Huo Zhengyang lowered his raised hand.
Although he couldn't Self-Created Soul Skill, what Lu Yu said was a principle summarized by countless predecessors. He wanted to wait and see, so he opened his senses to surround Huo Wu, ready to interrupt her immediately if anything went wrong.
Huo Wu thought about it and agreed that it made sense. Two Soul Master with the same Martial Soul would produce different Soul Skill after absorbing the same Soul Ring, let alone Self-Created Soul Skill.
Huo Wu closed her eyes and circulated her Soul Power within her body as Lu Yu had instructed, her forehead covered in fine beads of sweat.
After changing the route, although the previous intermittent feeling was gone, it was still difficult to move forward.
After several attempts, Huo Wu lay sprawled on the ground, utterly exhausted, staring blankly at the ceiling with a look of utter despair.
"I can't take it anymore, I'm exhausted! Self-Created Soul Skill is just too hard to learn!"
Huo Zhengyang, watching from the side, felt a pang of heartache and even wanted to advise Huo Wu not to learn it anymore. There were more convenient ways to acquire Soul Skill, and Soul Master in the Douluo Continent didn't really have much desire to Self-Created Soul Skill.
When others know that you can Self-Created Soul Skill, they can only sigh and say, "The second son is exceptionally talented!"
As for forcing me to reveal my Self-Created Soul Skill...
I've already learned to Self-Created Soul Skill, how could I still be at this level?
At my level, do you think I need your Self-Created Soul Skill?
Yu Xiaogang is the most qualified to speak on this matter. "I've already become Titled Douluo, so let whoever wants to be the Martial Soul Theory Grandmaster can have it!"
I became Grandmaster Grandmaster martial Martial Soul Theory Martial Soul Theory I lacked the talent for cultivation, not because I wanted to!
Understand?
