Chapter 13: Enhancement-Type Spirit Skill

"The power of the Spirit Ring is making my physique stronger, but that's not the most important thing." Su Wen sensed his own changes as he guided his Martial Spirit to absorb the Spirit Ring, feeling the natural integration of the Spirit Ring into the Martial Spirit.

Spirit Masters absorbing Spirit Rings seems only natural, and when the Martial Spirit reaches a corresponding level and kills a spirit beast, the Martial Spirit will naturally start absorbing the Spirit Ring.

However, Su Wen, using his own talent, with an exceptionally strong perception of himself started sensing the presence of his Martial Spirit Space.

At this moment, with the process of absorbing the Spirit Ring, Su Wen's perception is even clearer, to the point where his awareness of the Martial Spirit Space reached the same level as his usual control over his own body!

"The Soul Power of the Spirit Ring is ultimately that of the Spirit Ring. If I want it to become mine, I must make it accept the characteristics bestowed by my Martial Spirit."

Within the Martial Spirit Space, wisps of Soul Power from the Spirit Ring integrated into this space. This is the Soul Power of the Spirit Ring after circulating within Su Wen's body.

"This is just the small part that can penetrate through this space, but it seems I can accelerate this infiltration process."

Su Wen didn't rush things, he wanted to understand the details of the entire Spirit Ring absorption process before exerting his interference.

Otherwise, if his actions interrupted an imortant process and caused a mishap, he won't be capable of fixing it so better be safe than sorry.

"Is this the essence of the Spirit Ring?" A different unique aura directly merged into the Martial Spirit Space, carrying a very familiar scent to Su Wen.

"The generation of the Spirit Ring requires the absorption of the essence of the Spirit Beast. The essence of the Spirit Beast is the fundamental existence of the Spirit Ring."

As these essences surged into the Martial Spirit Space, Su Wen could finally confirm that everything that needed to be done had already begun.

"The essence of the Spirit Ring merges into the Martial Spirit, strengthening it. The Soul Power in the Spirit Ring will circulate through the various meridians in the body, tempering the body might be just a byproduct. The real reason is that it's challenging for it to be integrated into the Martial Spirit Space so it will accumulate in the body."

If the Soul Power contained within the Spirit Ring is too immense, the meridians of the Spirit Master will be unable to withstand the accumulation of this Soul Power, leading to the body explodine and his demise!

After experimenting, Su Wen 'transfered' more Spirit Ring Soul Power into the Martial Spirit Space.

"No impact!"

It still circulates within the body, not because it's necessary, but because it can't enter.

Su Wen opened up the Martial Spirit Space, making a little effort to let this Spirit Ring Soul Power squeeze in.

"It's too much, it can't come in anymore!"

Su Wen promptly stopped the injection and started to attempt manipulating the Spirit Ring Soul Power absorbed within the Martial Spirit Space.

This Spirit Ring Soul Power is neither the Origin Soul Power cultivated by himself nor the Soul Power bestowed with characteristics by the Martial Spirit. He doesn't have direct control over it. So, he was relying only on the basic relationship established with the Spirit Ring and the use of Origin Soul Power to make simple adjustments.

"It's time to give it a try."

Su Wen mobilized Origin Soul Power, delicately integrating it into the Martial Spirit that is currently merging with the Spirit Ring's essence while trying to avoid any mistakes.

As Origin Soul Power merged with the Martial Spirit, Su Wen's excitement grew.

Yes!

The integrated Origin Soul Power became the nourishment for the evolution of the Martial Spirit!

"I can't continue to merge it." Su Wen stopped the operation of merging Origin Soul Power. "First, use up the Soul Power of the Spirit Ring, then merge the Origin Soul Power."

He need the Origin Soul Power to manipulate the Spirit Ring Soul Power, so naturally, he can't deplete the Origin Soul Power first.

"The transformation of Martial Spirit by the Spirit Ring also requires energy consumption. Normally, this energy come from the essence of the Spirit Ring, and a small proportion of the Spirit Ring Soul Power that slowly infiltrates the Martial Spirit Space, but I can chane that.

By actively mobilizing more Spirit Ring Soul Power to penetrate into the Martial Spirit Space, integrating into the process of transforming Martial Spirit with the Spirit Ring, it becomes the energy for the Spirit Ring's transformation. This results in less 'meaningless' consumption of the essence energy of the Spirit Ring and allows for a more extensive evolotion of my Martial Spirit."

Using a small portion of his Origin Soul Power, Su Wen manipulted the Spirit Ring Soul Power and merged into the essence of the Spirit Ring that was entering his Martial Spirit Space allowing it to serve as the energy source consumed for evolving the Martial.

This way, the Martial Spirit was gradually growing stronger, and Su Wen, filled with genuine joy, summarized the entire process in excitement.

"The Spirit Ring's Soul Power causes a rough transformation in the Martial Spirit while the Spirit Ring's Essence focuses on the finer details. But this kind forcful transformation of the Martial Spirit requires the Origin Soul Power to help it withstand it and smooth things out"

Not all Martial Spirits can endure such a metamorphosis.

At this moment, Origin Soul Power plays a role, acting as a backup energy source to assist the Martial Spirit in persevering through the transformation.

...

Time passes.

Two hours later.

"It actually took this long!"

Generally, Spirit Masters absorb their first Spirit Ring within half an hour.

Su Wen has now exceeded two hours.

"Don't worry, Xiaowen's aura has been continuously strengthening, and I can sense his Martial Spirit undergoing transformation. This is a good sign," Sisi observed more closely. "This Spirit Ring is very suitable for him!"

At this moment, Su Wen has depleted nearly half of the Origin Soul Power in the Martial Spirit Space.

"The transformation of the Martial Spirit is ultimately limited, and now it has reached its limit."

In simple terms, it's full, like having eaten too much.

Even if he continues to integrate Origin Soul Power to support it, he can't continue; otherwise, the Martial Spirit would be overstretched.

"There's still some Origin Soul Power and Spirit Ring Soul Power left."

With the completion of the Martial Spirit's transformation, Su Wen also sensed that he has broken through his own bottleneck.

Origin Soul Power circulated, integrating into the Soul Power within his body.

The remaining Spirit Ring Soul Power circulating within Su Wen's body, after infiltrating the Martial Spirit Space, was also refined into Soul Power and integrated back into Su Wen's body.

Little by little, Su Wen refined all the Soul Power.

Another half-hour passed.

Opening his eyes, Su Wen felt as if he's entered a new world.

His current inner state can be described as extremely complex.

'Success!'

Absorbing the first Spirit Ring is just the most basic step.

For Su Wen, what truly excited him and lifted a long-standing weight off his heart was the evolution of his Martial Spirit!

"My theory is correct!"

The joy of personally verifying the success of his theory brought delight to Su Wen.

"Xiaowen, how is the First Spirit Skill?" Su Yuntao can tell from Su Wen's expression that it must be something impressive and decided to ask.

However, he doesn't directly inquire about the effectiveness of Su Wen's Spirit Skill.

"Brother Tao, the Spirit Skill's effect is excellent!"

Spirit Masters' Spirit Skills are considered personal privacy and are generally not disclosed unless the relationship is exceptionally close. However, since Su Yuntao and the others assisted him in hunting the Spirit Ring, Su Wen naturally doesn't hide everything.

"My Spirit Skill is an Enhancement-type Spirit Skill."

"Support type?" Su Yuntao's eyes light up.

He always thought that Su Wen would excel in the support direction, and now, learning about Su Wen's Spirit Skill type, he felt genuinely happy for him.

"Brother Tao, let me finish." Su Wen interrupted Su Yuntao with a helpless smile.

Brother Tao, you got excited too soon.

"It is indeed an enhancement-type Spirit Skill, with a supportive nature. However, this Spirit Skill acts on my own Martial Spirit, not on others"
