8 Chapter 8: New Arrivals to Room 7
"The cultivation of Origin Soul Power is similar to the cultivation of Soul Power."
The cultivation of Soul Power increases its upper limit. As Soul Power consumed in battle can quickly recover to the cultivated upper limit.
The same applies to Origin Soul Power.
The reason why it's called Origin Soul Power is that it lacks the characteristics bestowed by the Martial Spirit, thus it is unable to continue evolving into a Spirit Master's Soul Power.
The Martial Spirit itself has a certain range of authority in bestowing characteristics. The process of cultivation gradually unlocks these authorities. Within the developed range of authority, characteristics can be easily bestowed to restore Soul Power. However, in the undeveloped parts, the Martial Spirit cannot continue to bestow them rapidly.
Meanwhile, the accumulation of Origin Soul Power is similar to the expansion of Martial Spirit Space.
Upon reaching the bottleneck of every ten levels, the authorities of the Martial Spirit in that stage have been developed to the limit. Only by obtaining a Spirit Ring can the next stage of authorities be unlocked.
Continuing to cultivate will accumulate Origin Soul Power in the Martial Spirit Space, gradually expanding this space little by little.
Once it's consumed, it can also quickly absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth for recovery just like soul power.
This is also why Su Wen dared to use Origin Soul Power in yesterday's battle.
Otherwise, the Origin Soul Power he accumulated through months of hard work could be permanently depleted in a single battle, which would be too much of a waste.
"Cultivating Origin Soul Power, consuming Origin Soul Power and then restoring the Origin Soul Power should be my focuse to help me sense the existence of the Martial Spirit Space."
At the same time, if the theory is correct, with the accumulation of Origin Soul Power during cultivation, the Martial Spirit Space will expand larger, and during this expansion, it should be easier to sense. which will be like hitting two birds with one stone.
...
In the blink of an eye, several months have passed.
It's the beginning of another school year.
Su Wen's Soul Power was already at level ten, and it has been over half a year since, but he still hasn't rushed to hunt Spirit Beasts and acquire a Spirit Ring.
"Finally! I sensed the Martial Spirit Space as expected!" Su Wen was very satisfied with his cultivation progress.
In front of him, a dusty book hovered with a faint shimmer.
"Strengthening the Martial Spirit directly with pure Origin Soul Power is more cost-effective."
Instead of strengthening the summoned Martial Spirit with Soul Power, Su Wen directly used Origin Soul Power to enhance the Martial Spirit within the Martial Spirit Space once he gained better control over the Origin Soul Power.
This kind of enhancement is more pronounced, as if it is a strengthening from the very essence of the Martial Spirit!
"Origin Soul Power can directly enhance the Martial Spirit but can never truly integrate into the Martial Spirit to strengthen the essence of the Martial Spirit." Su Wen summarized the results of his recent experiments.
"Spirit Ring."
A Spirit Master needs to obtain a Spirit Ring for the Martial Spirit to undergo metamorphosis and allow him to continue cultivating his Soul Power.
"Hope that, during the absorption of the Spirit Ring, the Origin Soul Power can merge with the power of the Spirit Ring, jointly strengthening the Martial Spirit."
Su Wen is not certain whether his idea is feasible.
But he needs to try.
Only in this way can he, who is unable to absorb a higher-level Spirit Ring directly, use the process of absorbing the first Spirit Ring to allow his Martial Spirit to undergo a transformation equivalent to absorbing a Spirit Ring of a higher age.
"Hopefuly, this will improve the strengthing to make equivalent to spirit beast of around seven to eight hundred years, of course, if it can reach the level of strengthening of a thousand-year Spirit Ring, I don't mind."
To achieve this, the Origin Soul Power must first be abundant!
"I still need to stay at level ten for a while."
Accumulate!
Continue to cultivate.
Accumulate enough Origin Soul Power, then absorb the first Spirit Ring to achieve the first transformation of the Martial Spirit!
...
Su Wen's presence has certainly improved the life of a working student.
Under his influence, the working students in Room 7 also diligently immersed themselves in their cultivation.
Thud, thud.
The door of Room 7 was knocked.
"Hello, is this Room 7?"
A young man in tattered clothes appeared at the door, his clothes patched up in many places. Despite the worn-out appearance, his clothes were surprisingly clean.
"Are you the new working student this year?"
"That's right, I'm Tang San."
Su Wen opened his eyes and looked towards the door.
Tang San also glanced at Su Wen.
After a brief eye contact, Su Wen withdrew his gaze.
Regardless of the root cause for the death of Su Wen's parents. Whether it be Tang Hao, the pursuit by the Spirit Hall elders Yue Guan the Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Gui Mei the Ghost Douluo. In Su Wen's eyes they were all equally guilty.
Even though it was just the aftermath of their battle, it might not mean much to them, but for Su Wen, it was a deep-seated hatred.
Escape if you want to escape, pursue if you want to pursue. Once it involves me, I won't bother with the reasons. An enemy is an enemy.
So naturally, Su Wen will definitely clash with Tang Hao and Tang San.
Two years ago, Su Wen attempted to seek the Grandmaster because at that time, the Grandmaster was not associated with Tang San.
However, now, there should be a connection.
That makes them enemies.
On the path of revenge, anyone who stands in the way is an enemy.
Su Wen doesn't believe that Tang San would let him kill Tang Hao without interference, nor does he believe that the Grandmaster wouldn't obstruct him in this process if Tang San is involved.
So, from the moment the master-disciple relationship was established, the Grandmaster and Su Wen became enemies.
Tang Hao is definitely observing from some unknown corner, and Su Wen cannot underestimate Tang San with his various tricks.
As for the Grandmaster?
He is a Spirit Greatmaster.
Of course, the most crucial point is that Su Wen's current strength is still weak.
"I am confident in evolving my Martial Spirit step by step, reaching the pinnacle of the continent step by step. But my time is limited; I must surpass Tang San before it's too late."
"Is this Room 7?" A sweet voice came from the door.
It's Xiao Wu.
She is much more popular than Tang San.
Su Wen glanced at her but didn't continue to pay attention.
A rabbit with a hundred thousand years of experience is not appealing in his eyes.
He absolutely doesn't believe a Spirit Beast this old can resist the instinct to mate even once. It's a biological instinct that cannot be restrained.
Especially Xiao Wu who's a rabbit known for their tendency to repoduce and she lacked any dedication to cultivation.
The most important thing is that the intelligence of Spirit Beasts only develops later. In the early ten years, a hundred years, and even a thousand years, most rely on instinct for survival, and their intelligence is very low.
Who knows what she has been up to all these long years.
...
In the blink of an eye, another half year has passed.
"I've been at level ten for over a year, I can't continue like this."
Su Wen has been at level ten for over a year.
Although there were speculations, they were never confirmed. Su Wen's attempts to verify these speculations were limited.
Furthermore, over the past year, Su Wen has been practicing his original soul power and slowly increasing his reserves.
"I didn't find a master, and the Dean has already said what needs to be said. He won't continue to help me obtain Spirit Rings."
Su Wen doesn't regret it.
The Dean, after all, is a friend of the Grandmaster.
It's just not suitable between him and the Dean.
"I'll remember the favor for the advice on the Martial Spirit development."
Any more, and it would be too much to owe.
As for the three nobles required as guarantors for the decree from the Soul Hunting Forest.
"I'll have to rely on Su Yuntao."
Although Su Yuntao is a deacon of Spirit Hall, his relationship with Spirit Hall is different from the direct connections between the Gandmaster, the dean, and Tang Hao.
At the very least, it can be affirmed that Su Yuntao won't obstruct Su Wen from killing Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.
