As soon as Huo Yuhao's Soul Power entered Wang Dong's body, Tang San's Divine Sense, which was hidden within Wang Dong, began to activate. He guided Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's Soul Power to merge with each other, and under his guidance, the degree of fusion between their Soul Power reached one hundred percent.
Tang San's Divine Sense quickly relayed the results of the Martial Soul Fusion. Upon receiving this information, Tang San burst into laughter within his Asura God Temple: "It's done! It's done! Child of Destiny, let's see how you escape my grasp now!"
He secretly plotted that now that Huo Yuhao's mother was in his hands, and Huo Yuhao had even achieved Martial Soul Fusion with Tang Wutong, their bond would only deepen in the future, with virtually no possibility of anything other than being partners. He planned to manipulate Huo Yuhao until his Dao Heart shattered in the Yin Yang Love Querying Valley, then control Auspicious Beast to sacrifice to Huo Yuhao. Tang Wutong's soul would steal the Dragon God Bloodline, and by controlling the fully-fledged Tang Wutong, he could completely bind Huo Yuhao. The more Tang San thought about it, the more excited he became.
Just thinking about the Tang Sect, which has basically been wiped out and is already a liability, not only can it not provide faith power, but it has also been ridiculed for thousands of years because of the sect's decline.
Tang San sighed and muttered to himself, "Forget it. If restoring the Tang Sect hinders the subjugation of Huo Yuhao, then it would be a losing proposition. The Tang Sect should be abandoned."
Having figured this out, Tang San was in high spirits. He once again set off with his characteristic Asura God gait towards Xiao Wu's palace. He was tired of watching the mortal realm for so long and needed to relax with Xiao Wu. All the gods trembled with fear upon seeing him and knelt down in a flurry.
Several more days passed, the weather was fine and the warm sunlight shone on Sea God Island of the Shrek Academy. In Zhang Lexuan's training room, Qian Chen sat cross-legged. The chirping of insects seemed particularly loud today; even in the training room, he could clearly hear the rustling of insects nibbling on the grass. The air currents were also exceptionally distinct; even the faintest airflow could be keenly felt by his skin. And the faint fragrance of Zhang Lexuan's residence smelled particularly strong today.
What's going on? Why have my senses suddenly become so acute?
Electrolux's soul wiped its brow, removing non-existent sweat, within Qian Chen's Sea of Consciousness, and said, "The final upgrade is complete. Qian Chen, how do you feel?"
"My senses? The sounds, smells, and air currents from the outside world have all become exceptionally clear," Qian Chen answered truthfully.
Qian Renxue was overjoyed to hear of Qian Chen's transformation. Qian Chen was the hope of the Angel Clan; the stronger he became, the greater the chance of the Angel Clan revival. "That's wonderful! Qian Chen, your five senses have become stronger! That's truly amazing!"
Electrolux shook his head and explained, "It's not that his five senses themselves have become stronger, but rather that his dormant Sea of Consciousness have been fully activated. Now, he's equivalent to three people. With one Sea of Consciousness dedicated to hearing, he can hear clearly without distractions, focusing solely on sound, which is naturally much clearer than when he has to hear, see, and speak at the same time."
He continued, "The same principle applies to the heightened sensitivity of touch, smell, sight, and taste. It's not that the nose or skin has changed, but rather that a Sea of Consciousness is dedicated to managing that sense, naturally making it more acute and clear."
Bibi Dong pondered, "I see. He's now equivalent to three people? Won't his Sea of Consciousness conflict and devour each other?"
"Of course not. He has only one body and one soul. Everything Qian Chen sees, hears, and feels in every part of his Sea of Consciousness is synchronized, and the results of his learning, cultivation, and rest are all shared. Naturally, there will be no conflict, much less any mutual devouring."
At this moment, Qian Chen also arrived in the Sea of Consciousness, bowed deeply to Electrolux, and solemnly said, "Thank you, Elder Yi, for opening up a new Sea of Consciousness for me and activating it all. If it weren't for Elder Yi, I would have forever been guarding a treasure mountain without even realizing it."
"Alright, alright. A month has passed. I know you've been busy outside, go out and take a look." Electrolux waved his hand with a smile.
Qian Chen nodded, his consciousness returning to reality. Now, one part of his Sea of Consciousness controlled his body to push open the door and go find Zhang Lexuan; another part of his Sea of Consciousness had begun to circulate his Soul Power and enter a state of cultivation; and the other part was peacefully asleep. After all, he had spent the entire past month upgrading and transforming himself, without having truly rested for a moment.
The sound of the door opening immediately caught Zhang Lexuan's attention. She turned her head and saw that the door to the cultivation room, which had been closed for a whole month, was finally open.
" Qian Chen, you're out of seclusion! That's wonderful!" Zhang Lexuan exclaimed happily.
Qian Chen attempted to open his Eye of the Mind, sensing through Eye of the Mind Zhang Lexuan's pure and intense love, longing, and joy at seeing him again. Qian Chen whispered to Electrolux in his Sea of Consciousness, "Thank you, Elder Yi."
"Haha, it's nothing, go see your girlfriend." Electrolux teased.
Qian Chen and Zhang Lexuan quickened their pace and ran towards each other. Just before they touched, they opened their arms and hugged each other tightly.
" Qian Chen, you're finally out." Zhang Lexuan nestled in Qian Chen's arms, feeling the warmth of his embrace.
" Lexuan, I miss you too," Qian Chen whispered.
With his Eye of the Mind continuously open, Qianchen constantly captured Zhang Lexuan's affection and repeatedly recalled the scene between her and Qian Chen at the Sea God's Fate. Qian Chen discovered that continuously opening his Eye of the Mind on someone would continuously consume his Divine Power, and he could only maintain it for a maximum of half an hour.
Qian Chen held Zhang Lexuan in his arms, and the powerful Soul Power of Titled Douluo surged from beneath his feet, lifting the two of them slowly into the air.
"Ah! Qian Chen, why are you carrying me and flying? Where are you taking me?" Zhang Lexuan asked sweetly.
"I'll take you to a place you've always wanted to go," Qian Chen explained with a smile. The venue for the Sea God's Fate event wasn't far from Zhang Lexuan's residence, and a moment later, Qian Chen carried her there.
Seeing the venue for the Sea God's Fate event, Zhang Lexuan blushed even more. She never expected that Qian Chen knew this was the place she was thinking of. " Qian Chen, will you snatch me away from you here?" she asked, her face flushed.
"Of course, we're determined to win. We just came here early to familiarize ourselves with the venue," Qian Chen said playfully.
The two played for a long time by the Sea God Lake and the Sea God's Fate grounds, sharing many secrets they had kept hidden in their hearts. Only then did Qian Chen ask, " Lexuan, did anything major happen during my seclusion?"
"There are still some important things. Mu En is seriously ill and even sent Yan Shaozhe to look for you everywhere, but I turned him down by saying I didn't know where you were. Also, your disciples Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong have actually developed Martial Soul Fusion Skill." Zhang Lexuan answered truthfully.
"How did they develop their Martial Soul Fusion Skill?" Qian Chen hurriedly asked.
Zhang Lexuan recounted everything she knew.
Qian Chen's heart tightened upon hearing this. This was almost exactly the same situation as that of Bing Ling and Ma Xiaotao back then. He originally thought Zhou Yi was Tang San's person, but he didn't expect Wang Dong to be Tang San's true trump card. The Martial Soul Fusion Skill would create an unbreakable bond between the two people, just like Bing Ling and Ma Xiaotao. Although one was ice and the other was fire, Bing Ling initially had no feelings for Ma Xiaotao. However, under the influence of Bibi Dong's remaining Divine Power, the two created Martial Soul Fusion Skill and eventually became partners.
Fortunately, I now possess the unique Eye of the Mind, a treasure of the Douluo Continent. Next time I see Wang Dong, I will thoroughly investigate her background before deciding how to deal with her.
