"My son Tianyang has the potential to become a Limit Douluo!"
Looking at Xu Tianming, who seemed to take it all for granted, Xu Xiang couldn't help but reach out and pat his head, sighing softly:
"However... a five-thousand-year spirit ring is equivalent to the third or even fourth spirit ring of an ordinary spirit master. If one is not careful, one will explode and die."
"Are you really sure you want a five-thousand-year-old Evil-Eyed Tyrant as your first spirit ring?"
Although he believed in his son's talent, the first spirit ring in five thousand years was indeed beyond Xu Xiang's imagination.
"Don't worry, Father, I know what's important."
Xu Tianming pursed his lips and nodded firmly.
"In that case, you should absorb this 50,000-year-old whale glue first."
Xu Xiang took out the wooden box containing whale glue from his storage soul tool.
"Speaking of which, although narwhals live in our far northern sea, I have only seen a few narwhals that are 50,000 years old."
This narwhal is a unique soul beast from the far north sea. Because the long horn on its forehead is an extremely precious material for making soul tools, it has been hunted on a large scale by the Sun Moon Empire.
They are now almost extinct.
He took out the whale glue from the box, and an invisible yet intensely hot soul force instantly condensed in Xu Tianming's palm.
Xu Xiang's Sun Martial Soul was already a top-tier Martial Soul, second only to the Ultimate Flame.
Under the catalysis of his scorching soul power, the clump of whale glue quickly transformed into a viscous, golden, and shimmering gel.
The previously not particularly strong fragrance suddenly became much stronger.
Xu Xiang and Kong Yue, one a Soul Saint with seven rings and the other a Soul Emperor with six rings, were naturally not affected much.
However, Xu Tianming was just a six-year-old child with a soul power of only level ten. After smelling this strange fragrance, his cheeks slowly turned red.
"This thing can increase the age of a Soul Master's Soul Rings... but it's not exactly a legitimate item!"
Seeing the unusual redness on her son's face, Kong Yue couldn't help but lightly spit out a mouthful of saliva.
"Hey, it may be a bit unconventional, but it's definitely good stuff."
Xu Xiang seemed to have thought of something, and a lewd smile appeared on his face.
But the smile vanished in an instant, and he became serious again.
"Open your mouth!"
Xu Xiang whispered a shout to Xu Tianming.
Xu Tianming had been waiting for this moment, and upon hearing Xu Xiang's words, he subconsciously opened his mouth.
"Hmm!"
Xu Xiang flicked his finger, and the whale glue, enveloped in his soul power, smoothly fell into Xu Tianming's stomach.
hot!
This was Xu Tianming's first reaction.
An inexplicable heat began to rise from his lower abdomen, and within just a few breaths, this warm current had spread throughout his entire body.
Immediately, the warm current flowing through his entire body exploded!
A burst of scalding energy erupted from Xu Tianming's dantian, sweeping through his limbs and bones like a tsunami.
Every inch of bone seemed to be emitting a slight popping sound.
Xu Tianming immediately sat cross-legged on the ground, and the Yin-Yang Profound Body Refining Technique began to operate wildly within his body, refining the 50,000-year-old whale glue into a vast amount of energy.
However, this energy did not transform into soul power that could help a soul master break through, but instead all merged into Xu Tianming's bones, flesh, and meridians.
His body was constantly being tempered and strengthened.
"Strange, according to Mingde Hall's research, although ordinary Soul Masters can absorb whale glue, there must be energy loss in the process!"
"Especially high-aged whale glue, low-level soul masters often cannot fully absorb the energy in it and can only let the excess energy be excreted from their bodies."
Xu Xiang frowned slightly as he looked at Xu Tianming, whose skin looked as if it had been scalded.
"But why is there no energy leaking out of Tianming's body at all?"
As a Soul Saint-level expert, he considered himself quite perceptive of the energy fluctuations in the world.
However, ever since Xu Tianming took the whale gelatin, he has not been able to detect any whale gelatin energy leaking out of his son.
It's just like a glutton that only takes in and never gives out!
A stream of black impurities gradually seeped out from Xu Tianming's body, and the misty gas mixed with the gray impurities expelled from his body formed a faint fog around him.
The mark on his hand suddenly changed, and Xu Tianming's originally red skin quickly returned to its original state.
For ordinary Soul Masters, 50,000-year-old whale glue is naturally a treasure containing enormous energy, and it may take a considerable amount of time to refine it.
However, for Xu Tianming, who wanted to "turn bones into white jade and blood into a mysterious spring," the energy involved was clearly far from sufficient.
"call!"
Xu Tianming exhaled a breath of turbid air, which actually condensed into a brief white streak in mid-air.
The golden and silver light flashed in Xu Tianming's eyes, causing Xu Xiang and Kong Yue to be momentarily stunned.
It was as if he was being oppressed by the bloodline of a superior martial soul.
Only after the light in Xu Tianming's eyes faded did the two of them come to their senses.
"Strange, strange, really strange!"
Xu Xiang was startled, and a look of extreme confusion appeared on his face.
"Even if you have innate full soul power, you shouldn't exert the pressure of a superior martial soul on my Sun Martial Soul, right?"
Strictly speaking, the Sun Martial Soul does not belong to the Beast Martial Soul or Weapon Martial Soul categories; rather, it is a top-tier elemental Martial Soul.
Only a martial soul with ultimate attributes can make an elemental martial soul like the Sun feel the pressure of a superior martial soul.
Is now the time to talk about this?
Kong Yue glared at Xu Xiang with annoyance, but without caring about the dirt on Xu Tianming's skin, she reached out and helped him up.
"Tianming is just a child, how could he know these things?"
Xu Xiang didn't say anything, but simply reached out and placed his hand on Xu Tianming's wrist.
A moment later, his expression suddenly became strange.
"You've swallowed a piece of 50,000-year-old whale glue, how come your soul power hasn't increased at all?"
"You have clearly refined this 50,000-year-old whale glue completely, without leaking even a trace!"
Xu Xiang was completely baffled by what had happened to his son.
"The main function of whale glue is to strengthen the body; enhancing soul power is a secondary function, right?"
Xu Tianming couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Right now, all the energy from the whale gel has been absorbed by my body. This is probably the special feature of my original martial soul."
Some things are indeed hard to explain, but Xu Tianming can attribute everything to his own martial soul.
In any case, the Sun Moon Empire had absolutely no understanding of the original martial soul.
"A true martial soul... truly amazing!"
Xu Xiang clicked his tongue and then shook his head helplessly.
"However, if all the energy from this 50,000-year-old whale glue were used to strengthen your body..."
"Given the unique nature of your original spirit, you might actually be able to absorb the first spirit ring in five thousand years."
