Spirit Gathering

"So Brother Xingyu, what exactly is this experiment you've been talking about?" Wang Dong'er asked, puzzled.

Xu Xingyu smiled and said, "Spirit Gathering."

"Spirit Gathering?"

"The so-called ' Spirit Gathering' means collecting the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to endow something with its own spirituality."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dong'er asked in surprise, "Isn't that similar to the Spirit Forging technique you mentioned before?"

"Yes," Xu Xingyu nodded, "But there are still some differences. Please allow me to explain slowly."

After finishing her Xu Xingyu began her own.

The so-called Soul Bone is a bone that has fused with the essence of all the bloodlines of the entire Soul Beast. It is something that can only appear with a certain probability when the Soul Beast perishes.

Only those Soul Beast that have successfully condensed their Soul Core will drop their Soul Bone with a 100% success rate, and by that time, the Soul Beast' cultivation levels have already reached approximately 100,000 years.

The biggest reason why Soul Bone are regarded as priceless treasures by Soul Master is not only because of their rarity, but also because the Soul Bone Soul Bone still be removed from the body of the person who absorbed it after their death.

Then the removed Soul Bone can be used and absorbed by another person. Many families pass down their collection of Soul Bone from generation to generation in this way.

However, it's important to note that there's a limit to the number of times Soul Bone can be fused.

The number of uses is mainly determined by the amount of energy contained in the Soul Bone itself.

Therefore, some Soul Bone may be passed down for hundreds or thousands of years, after which their energy will be exhausted, and they will eventually become a useless bone.

The three Soul Bone in Xu Xingyu's hands were exceptionally well-preserved and possessed abundant Soul Bone.

However, these Soul Bone have a fatal flaw: the spirituality they possess has become dim and lifeless.

If a Soul Bone loses its spirituality, it means that the energy of that Soul Bone will also dissipate quickly.

If no one fuses them together, that Soul Bone will inevitably become useless within ten to thirty years.

Therefore, Yan Shaozhe had his own reasons for choosing these three Soul Bone for Xu Xingyu, since he couldn't say he had much affection for the Spirit Contract Pagoda at that time.

After some internal speculation Yan Shaozhe that even if he wanted to take back the Soul Bone and replace them with better ones, there was nothing he could do.

After all, this was tantamount to admitting guilt without being asked, so Yan Shaozhe simply decided not to bring it up.

In his opinion, the first thing Xu Xingyu would do after obtaining the Soul Bone was to give it to the three girls who were involved with him, and have them fuse with it.

This way, his little scheme won't be exposed for a long time, and even if it is, he might already be long gone by then.

However, for Xu Xingyu, this Soul Bone lacking spirituality is exactly what he needs right now.

They originally possessed a specific technique at the Spirit Contract Pagoda that allowed them to perform a ritual to resurrect the owner of a Soul Bone Soul Bone as Soul Spirit.

However, this ritual cannot be performed by simply using any Soul Bone to revive a Soul Spirit.

First, the Soul Bone itself needs to possess extremely strong spirituality; second, the energy contained within the Soul Bone itself must be abundant enough.

Only under such circumstances is there a high probability of reviving the Soul Beast corresponding to the Soul Bone as Soul Spirit.

However, unless the Soul Beast itself possesses sufficiently powerful strength and bloodline, such Soul Bone Soul Bone are usually...

What Xu Xingyu wanted to do was to use the necromancy techniques that Electrolux had taught him and the forging techniques he had learned to find a way to restore the spirituality inherent in the Soul Bone.

This would not only revive more Soul Beast as Soul Spirit, but also allow Xu Xingyu to experience more of the true nature of that so-called spirituality.

Through her understanding of spiritual formation, Xu Xingyu can also quickly achieve her goal of Spirit Forging.

Although Xu Xingyu was able to successfully perform Fusion Forging, it was mainly due to the special abilities of her two forging hammers.

Moreover, the quality of the Fusion Forging metal forged in this way is still in the Thousand Refinement level.

If Xu Xingyu were to forge the hammer without its special effects, Xu Xingyu would only be able to progress to the First-Grade Thousand Refinement, which is equivalent to Half-Step Spirit Forging stage.

However, the Spirit Forging technique is extremely important to the Soul Guidance Department of the Spirit Contract Pagoda. Without this technique, many projects of the Spirit Contract Pagoda would have to be scrapped.

Therefore, if Xu Xingyu can successfully comprehend how spiritual energy is gathered through this Spirit Gathering experiment, then he will be confident in successfully creating Spirit Forging!

Given enough time, even the so-called higher levels of Soul Forging and Heavenly Forging will not be a problem!

That's killing three birds with one stone!

It can not only perfect the Soul Beast resurrection ritual, but also find the secrets of Spirit Forging, and allow those projects that have reached their limit to move forward again!

After hearing Xu Xingyu's explanation, Wang Dong'er's face was filled with admiration.

She never imagined that a few Soul Bone that would have been useless after a decade or so could be used in so many creative ways by Xu Xingyu.

If it were her, the only thing she could do would be to fuse with it herself or have someone in her family fuse with it as soon as possible, otherwise the Soul Bone would be wasted.

However, this made Wang Dong'er ask in confusion, "If that's the case Brother Xingyu, why don't we just use the Soul Bone stored in our Spirit Contract Pagoda?"

Faced with Wang Dong'er's question, Xu Xingyu scratched her head sheepishly and said, "Actually, I only recently came up with this plan, so I didn't prepare the Soul Bone for the experiment in advance."

"Originally, I planned to message Gu Yuena to ask for a few Soul Bone to do this experiment, but Dean Yan just happened to send these three Soul Bone to me, so I might as well make use of them."

"Ah, this..." Wang Dong'er could only break out in a cold sweat and think to herself that her Brother Xingyu was not as omnipotent as she had imagined.

At this Xu Xingyu looked at the darkening sky and said, "It's getting late, let's get some rest. After all, we have to continue our morning training tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll do it now... But do we have to continue tomorrow?" Wang Dong'er looked at Xu Xingyu in horror.

It was clear she was starting to recall the grueling training she had endured that morning.

Xu Xingyu simply smiled and then began washing up.

Having realized what was happening, Wang Dong'er chased after Xu Xingyu, shouting, "Couldn't you have gone a little easier? If it happens a few more times, I really won't be able to take it! Besides, wouldn't it be nice if you could rest a little longer?"

"No. You asked me to train you, so you have to finish it even if it's with tears in your eyes. I won't allow you to stay in bed." Xu Xingyu said nonchalantly, "As for me, don't worry. My Spiritual Power is much stronger than yours, so even if I don't sleep for a week, it's no problem. So sleeping only five hours a day for a month is not a problem for me at all."

"Wait a month?"

"Didn't I say? This training will continue until the new student assessment, which will take about a month in total."

Wang Dong'er's mind began to conjure up images of the month-long grueling training that was about to begin. Finally, she could only roar to the heavens, "No way!!!"

Fortunately, Xu Xingyu used her Soul Power to isolate the sounds inside the room beforehand, otherwise there would have been all sorts of eerie cries and howls at the school.
