Chapter 434 - 433: Soul Shaping

Chapter 434: Chapter 433: Soul Shaping

Yiyi entered the Medicine Garden and began to frantically devour the Spiritual Essences.

Ling Fei, however, waited outside calmly.

Meanwhile, people were continuously entering the core region of the North Spirit Ruins.

Xu Zitao had entered the core region of the North Spirit Ruins early on.

’I’ll check out those Martial Halls first, then head to the North Spirit Demon Sealing Platform.’ A glint flashed in Xu Zitao’s eyes. He, too, planned to visit the Martial Arts Inheritance Region first.

Besides Xu Zitao, other prodigies were also entering one after another.

With the few Nascent Soul Realm Great Demons no longer blocking the way, the latecomers had a much easier time.

’Medicine Vein, here I come!’ Yuan Chong and Mo Fan flew together toward the region of the Medicine Vein.

So were Jiang Chen, Wan Qianxiang, and other Alchemy Dao prodigies.

...

Time passed. In the blink of an eye, two hours had gone by since Yiyi entered the Medicine Garden.

Yaa!

The little one patted its furry belly and let out a burp.

At this moment, it had eaten too many Spiritual Essences, most of which were over a thousand years old. Their medicinal effects had reached a level unimaginable to ordinary people.

Even if these Spiritual Essences were refined into pills, their effects would have surpassed those of Spirit Pills.

Rainbow light now swirled around Yiyi’s body. Some Mystical Technique Patterns condensed and gradually restored themselves, and its aura had completely stabilized at the Nascent Soul Realm.

The Spiritual Essences in this Medicine Garden had restored a good portion of its foundation.

Yiyi was now becoming more and more suffused with a compelling Spiritual Qi.

However, having eaten so many Spiritual Essences, the little one felt a bit drowsy and needed to digest their medicinal power.

With a hint of sleepiness, Yiyi blinked its lively eyes and continued to scan the Medicine Garden, which it had ravaged beyond recognition.

Yaa, yiya!

Yiyi mumbled to itself, searching for the medicinal ingredients Ling Fei needed.

Although the little one was a glutton, it still remembered what it had promised Ling Fei.

Its little paws swept out, pulling in one Spiritual Essence after another.

Then, fast as lightning, the little one zipped back and forth across the Medicine Garden.

From the looks of it, it was clearly searching for the Soul Dao Essence Ling Fei had mentioned.

Finally, in a special area of the Medicine Garden, where Array Patterns were still present, it found a spot that seemed to be gathering Heaven and Earth Essence Qi to nurture a single Spiritual Essence.

The Spiritual Essence stood three feet tall with a single flower blooming at its top. The open flower was wreathed in a misty vapor, a floral shadow seeming to condense above it. A dense Soul Qi wafted out, and Yiyi couldn’t help but twitch its nose. As it inhaled the Soul Power, a look of pure intoxication spread across its face; it desperately wanted to devour the whole thing.

Yaa!

The little one covered its nose, trying hard not to breathe in the dense Soul Qi to resist its allure.

But the Spiritual Essence was just too tempting.

Yiyi plucked it, but its face was full of worry.

This Spiritual Essence had a single flower, on which patterns swirled. The condensed floral shadow did not disperse; this was where its essence lay.

In addition, nine leaves grew on its stem, also containing a dense Soul Qi that swirled like Spiritual Qi.

Yaa!

The little one blinked, gritted its teeth, plucked a leaf, and ate it.

As the leaf entered its mouth, the Soul Power felt like it was cleansing its very soul.

The little one couldn’t resist and plucked another leaf to eat.

After eating it, the craving only grew stronger.

Yaa!

Finally, Yiyi gritted its teeth, snatched the Spiritual Essence, and flew out.

It was terrified that it wouldn’t be able to stop itself from eating the whole thing, so it decided to just go out and give it to Ling Fei.

Otherwise, if it stayed any longer, the entire Spiritual Essence would have been devoured.

The Power of Soul emanating from this Spiritual Essence was simply too alluring.

Yiyi was even drooling at the thought!

Outside, a flash of light appeared, and Ling Fei saw Yiyi fly out.

In its little paws was a Spiritual Essence radiating a dense Soul Power.

Yaa!

Yiyi handed the Spiritual Essence to Ling Fei.

The little one’s eyes narrowed into slits, a smile spreading across its face, giving it an endearingly naive look.

But who knew how badly the little one wanted to gobble up the Spiritual Essence in one bite.

"What dense Soul Qi!" Ling Fei’s eyes lit up as the Spiritual Essence was handed to him. "It’s a Nine-leaf Soul Branch, and it’s even bloomed!"

As the dense Soul Qi entered his mind, his soul felt incredibly comfortable.

"Two leaves are missing?" Ling Fei noticed at a glance.

Then his gaze shifted, and when he saw Yiyi staring intently at the Nine-leaf Soul Branch, he knew what had happened.

The little glutton must have eaten two of them.

Still, Ling Fei was pleasantly surprised that Yiyi had left the Soul Flower.

After all, the Soul Flower was the part of the Nine-leaf Soul Branch with the densest Soul Qi.

Yiyi stared at Ling Fei with a smile, not saying a word, but it was drooling. The allure of the Nine-leaf Soul Branch before it was just too great.

It surpassed all the countless Spiritual Essences from before.

"Haha, here, you can have two more leaves," Ling Fei said with a smile, seeing Yiyi’s expression. He plucked two leaves and handed them to the creature.

"Yaa, yiya!" Seeing this, the smiling, endearingly naive Yiyi cried out excitedly. It couldn’t have been happier.

Just moments ago, it had been desperately fighting the urge to eat the Nine-leaf Soul Branch. Even after giving it to Ling Fei, it still desperately wanted a couple of leaves.

But Yiyi, wanting to maintain its perfect image as a cute, non-greedy little beast, had stubbornly held back.

Now that Ling Fei had personally offered them, it couldn’t hold back any longer. It took the two leaves and swallowed them in one gulp.

The speed was incredible.

Seeing this, Ling Fei naturally knew how long it had been holding back.

Ling Fei couldn’t help but chuckle.

For Yiyi to have managed this much was truly remarkable.

"But, I’ll be eating the rest. I really need this to break through right now!" Ling Fei said, stroking Yiyi’s head.

"Yaa!" Yiyi squinted its eyes and nodded obediently.

"Good Yiyi!" Ling Fei said with a smile.

Yiyi’s obedience filled his heart with affection.

Yaa!

Yiyi nodded, then gestured with its little paws. It pointed at the Medicine Garden and drew a circle with both paws, as if to say there were still plenty of Spiritual Essences inside.

Then, the little one turned into a flash of lightning and disappeared into the Medicine Garden.

An instant later, Yiyi brought out numerous Spiritual Essences for Ling Fei.

Once, twice.

Yiyi made dozens of trips, almost completely emptying the Medicine Garden.

’So many?’

’They’re all over a thousand years old!’

’Spiritual Medicines like these are more effective than Spirit Pills!’

Seeing this, even Ling Fei was stunned.

"Well done," he said, praising Yiyi while stroking its fluffy little head.

"Yaa!" Yiyi looked up, its eyes squinted, revealing an endearingly naive smile.

It seemed the little one greatly enjoyed being praised.

It looked just like an obedient child.

"Alright, I’m going to consume this Nine-leaf Soul Branch first. You go play," Ling Fei said. He stored the Spiritual Essences and prepared to consume the Nine-leaf Soul Branch.

Because this type of Spiritual Essence easily loses its Soul Power after being removed from the soil, affecting its potency, Ling Fei wanted to consume it as soon as possible.

"Yaa..." Yiyi let out a soft cry, looking a little sleepy.

"You’re sleepy?" Ling Fei was taken aback for a moment, then he brought Yiyi into the Dragon Bone Space.

After entering the Dragon Bone Space, Yiyi immediately fell into a deep sleep and began to digest the massive amount of medicinal Essence Qi it had just absorbed.

’Looks like its Essence Qi has recovered quite a bit this time.’ Seeing this, Ling Fei smiled faintly.

Yiyi had once exhausted too much of its origin source, becoming extremely weak. Ling Fei was happy for the little one now that it could recover.

A moment later, Ling Fei began to circulate the True Dragon Refining God Technique.

WHOOSH!

As the Cultivation Technique activated, a Qi Vortex formed between Ling Fei’s eyebrows, directly pulling the Nine-leaf Soul Branch into his mind.

The immense Soul Power was absorbed by his soul.

This boundless Soul Power was like an ocean, beginning to nourish Ling Fei’s soul.

After receiving this immense Soul Power, Ling Fei’s soul seemed to break its former shackles, beginning to expand and grow wildly.

His Divine Sense Power grew stronger and stronger.

’Soul Power, through Transformed Knowledge, becomes Divine Sense. Once it becomes Divine Sense, it condenses and grows stronger. After it reaches a certain level, the soul will transform again. My Divine Sense is already powerful enough, and my Soul Power is immense. Next should be another Realm of the True Dragon Refining God Technique.’

As his Divine Sense Power grew stronger, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred.

’That would be... Soul Shaping!’

Soul Shaping!

This was another Realm.

This involved condensing Divine Sense to ultimately transform the soul.

It meant making the entire soul, like Divine Sense, contain a powerful Power of Will and Divine Technique. That would be an even more profound Realm.

As his Divine Sense condensed, Ling Fei’s soul became completely immersed in another Realm.

A massive Power of Will was gathering around him.

Even the sky above the ancient ruins stirred in response.

The clouds roiled as a formless Power gathered above Ling Fei’s head.

That Power was like Celestial Might!

"What’s going on?" At this moment, within the Medicine Vein, Yuan Chong, Mo Fan, and the others looked up in surprise. They too had felt this powerful Celestial Might.

’Such Celestial Might... could it be that a Cultivator is about to undergo a tribulation?’ Wan Qianxiang’s heart trembled, and waves of shock crashed within her.

If the tribulation was successful, they would step into the Nascent Soul Realm!

If it was a human Cultivator, once they emerged, none of the prodigies here would be able to compete with them.

If it was a Demon Cultivator, they would become an even greater threat.

For this reason, all of them frowned.

On the mountaintop, however, Ling Fei was completely absorbed in his soul’s transformation.

’Soul Shaping isn’t just about fusing the Power of Soul and Divine Sense Power. I must also integrate my Soul Dao Mystical.’ Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit was incredibly clear.

For him, Soul Shaping was a critical moment.

If he could master it, his strength would see a massive increase.

’My soul was tempered by True Dragon Blood Qi and possesses True Dragon’s Might. This True Dragon’s Might must be integrated. Then, whenever I release my Power of Soul, it will possess Dragon’s Might and have a deterrent effect.’ Ling Fei thought to himself. ’This way, I’ll have an advantage on the soul level that ordinary people can’t match.’

It was just like advancing from the Quasi-Nascent Soul Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm.

They also had to integrate their own Mystical of Martial Arts.

By doing so, the power of their Nascent Soul would also increase.

With a single thought, the True Dragon Soul Power in Ling Fei’s mind condensed, forming patterns that continuously fused with his Divine Sense.
