"Good!"
Kong Xuan nodded to Qiangu Fuliu, who had volunteered for the mission, and then calmly withdrew from the area around the round platform.
Meanwhile, a beautiful figure who had been preparing for a long time walked up with light and firm steps—it was Meng Hongchen!
To demonstrate the maturity and scalability of the Soul Spirit fusion technology, the upcoming Soul Spirit fusion ceremony will be led by Meng Hongchen.
Meng Hongchen's Soul Power has now reached the eighth ring, allowing him to enter the realm of Soul Douluo.
Although she is not Spiritual System soul, with the assistance of the Soul Spirit Fusion Array beneath her feet, her Divine Power strength has fully met the requirements for guiding the fusion of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit.
Kong Xuan noticed the fleeting hint of tension in Meng Hongchen's icy blue eyes. As she passed by, he naturally reached out and gently squeezed her slightly cool hand, sending a soft whisper into her ear.
Don't worry, I've got you covered.
Those few simple words seemed to possess a strange magic, instantly dispelling the last trace of unease and tension in Meng Hongchen's heart, and a warm current and strong confidence surged from the bottom of her heart.
She took a deep breath, nodded slightly to Kong Xuan, her eyes regaining their calm and focused expression, and resolutely stepped onto the center of the array platform.
Kong Xuan then walked up to Di Tian and said, "Senior Di Tian, we can begin!"
Upon hearing this, Di Tian merely nodded slightly, casually waving his arm, which was shrouded in black robes, forward. The movement was understated, yet it contained immense power capable of tearing through space.
"Sizzle!"
The space above the circular platform was easily torn open like a piece of cloth, and a huge figure, accompanied by a heavy, savage, and terrifying aura, suddenly appeared on the circular array platform!
Its size was so enormous that it instantly occupied most of the space on the truncated cone.
It was even sitting on a round platform, but even so, it had to shrink its neck and lower its huge head. The five-meter-high space on the second floor of the Spirit Pagoda seemed somewhat cramped and oppressive to it.
If it were to stand up completely, it would probably be over ten meters tall!
This colossal beast was covered in granite-black fur, its muscles bulging and brimming with explosive power. Its eyes, as large as lanterns, gleamed with a yellowish-orange light, yet within that light lay an undeniable weariness and vicissitude.
Every Soul Master present was an elite from one of the major powers on the continent, possessing extensive knowledge and experience.
The moment they saw the giant beast's appearance, someone exclaimed in shock, "This... this is... Titan Giant Ape?!"
The speaker was a Titled Douluo from the Star Luo Empire. He had personally witnessed the Titan Giant Ape and was confident that his judgment was absolutely correct.
The one in front of us has clearly compressed its size; otherwise, its height would probably be over fifty meters.
Following the sound, Di Tian glanced indifferently at the person who exclaimed in surprise. An invisible pressure silenced the person instantly, turning their face deathly pale.
Immediately, Di Tian's majestic gaze fell on the round platform and on Qiangu Fuliu, his deep and oppressive voice echoing like thunder within the tower.
"This is Titan Giant Ape with a cultivation level of 53,000 years."
"A hundred years ago, it was severely damaged by a powerful human, its very essence was harmed, and now its Life has come to an end."
"It is Soul Spirit that Kong Xuan specially chose for you. I hope you... will treat it well."
With great difficulty, Qiangu Fuliu pulled his gaze away from the towering Titan Giant Ape before him, which resembled a mountain. He took several deep breaths to calm his racing heart and turbulent emotions.
He turned to Di Tian, his voice slightly hoarse with excitement, yet filled with undeniable sincerity.
"Senior Di Tian, rest assured! From this day forward, it will be my closest companion and most trusted teammate in the Qiangu Fuliu!"
No wonder he was so agitated and out of control; this was Titan Giant Ape, the overlord among Soul Beast, the king of the forest!
A Titan Giant Ape with 53,000 years of cultivation, at its peak, was someone even a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast wouldn't dare to provoke easily.
Although the Qiangu Clan has a long history and many powerful individuals at the Titled Douluo level, it possesses profound cultural heritage.
Even so, relying solely on the family's resources to hunt down a Titan Giant Ape over 50,000 years old as his Seventh Soul Ring was a pipe dream, a luxury he wouldn't even dare to imagine!
The costs, risks, and luck involved in finding a suitable target are all too slim.
Now, this once unattainable dream is truly before him.
He then turned his gaze to Kong Xuan, who stood calmly to the side, his eyes gleaming with an indescribable, almost burning gratitude.
The onlookers from other factions around them were practically spitting fire as they looked at Qiangu Fuliu!
His gaze was filled with undisguised, extreme envy, even tinged with a hint of jealousy.
Titan Giant Ape! That's the ultimate Soul Ring choice that power-type Soul Master dream of!
In an instant, a clear and unwavering thought arose in everyone's mind, "From now on, no matter what, we must cultivate a good relationship with the Spirit Pagoda!"
After all, which Soul Master in the world doesn't yearn for a powerful and intelligent Soul Spirit?
At this moment, under the intense gaze of everyone, the Soul Spirit fusion ceremony officially began!
Compared to Kong Xuan's initial reliance on his vast Divine Power and the secret techniques taught by Electrolux to forcibly guide the fusion, Meng Hongchen's current actions focused more on the exquisite control of the Soul Spirit Fusion Array beneath his feet.
As she continuously poured her pure Soul Power into the core of the formation, the entire circular platform was suddenly activated!
A layer of soft, dazzling golden light rose from the base of the circular platform, flowing like a warm liquid.
Immediately afterwards, the mysterious runes on the circular platform, which had previously only flickered with faint light, seemed to be infused with Life, each one coming to life as it detached from the platform and floated up.
They transformed into streaks of golden light, weaving together a fine and sacred net of light that enveloped the Titan Giant Ape and the Qiangu Fuliu.
Time passed slowly in the silent and tense wait, and a small and slightly ethereal Titan Giant Ape figure gradually emerged.
On the circular platform, the Titan Giant Ape's original form, having lost its soul, collapsed with a dull thud as its massive body lost all support.
The next moment, under Meng Hongchen's precise guidance, the small Titan Giant Ape Soul Spirit phantom transformed into a stream of light, like a fledgling returning to its nest, and lightly and firmly entered the space between Qiangu Fuliu's eyebrows!
The moment the Soul Spirit entered his body, Qiangu Fuliu Liu's previously calm aura suddenly surged like a volcano that had been ignited!
A powerful, profound, and forceful surge of Soul Power erupted from him!
Before long, a deep, dark Soul Ring slowly rose up. It was the Seventh Soul Ring, which symbolized the highest mark of Soul Saint. Moreover, judging from its color and energy fluctuations, it was of extremely high quality!
It worked!
The fusion of the millennia-old Titan Giant Ape Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Spirit has been successful!
