Douluo Continent: I ushered in this era

However, the formation of the soul core is related to mental power. The reason why soul masters can begin to condense soul cores after entering the Soul Saint realm is because they focus on cultivating mental power.

Chu Ci's spiritual power has reached the Spirit Abyss Realm, which is a spiritual power that only a Title Douluo can possess. Therefore, judging from this, there is a considerable hope for the formation of the Yin-Yang Soul Core.

As the Taiji Qiankun Dao was activated, the black and white energies were completely integrated into the soul power within Chu Ci's body.

Suddenly, Yin and Yang lost their restraint and began to run rampant, with the two attributes of soul power rampaging through Chu Ci's body.

At this moment, Chu Ci felt as if he were in magma one moment and in ice and snow the next, and so on.

The meridians throughout my body were swaying precariously, making cracking noises, as if they were about to snap at any moment.

Chu Ci gritted her teeth, enduring the pain with unwavering willpower, and released powerful spiritual energy to begin regulating the Yin and Yang attributes of her soul power within her body.

Ya Li, who was outside, sensed that Chu Ci's physical condition was not good, so she quickly guided the life energy of Seagod Island to gather in the cultivation room where Chu Ci was.

A massive surge of life energy flowed into Chu Ci's body, protecting his body and meridians.

Taking this opportunity, Chu Ci sprinted with all his might to make the Yin and Yang soul forces within his body collide, recombine, be purified, and condense, finally merging together to achieve a state of Yin-Yang balance.

Having completed the first step, Chu Ci did not relax at all and immediately began the second step: compressing soul power.

Unlike other soul cores, the Yin-Yang Soul Core cannot be compressed all at once. It requires the continuous fusion of Yin and Yang attributes of soul power during the compression process, and the Yin and Yang must not be out of balance, so that it can achieve the state of Yin-Yang circulation when it is transformed into a soul core.

This requires a sufficiently strong mental fortitude to sustain the completion of this process.

A few drops of cold sweat trickled down Chu Ci's forehead; the process of compressing his soul power was an enormous burden on his mental strength.

If it weren't for that life energy protecting Chu Ci's body, preventing him from having to focus on dealing with the pain, the compression process would probably have encountered several problems already.

The black and white soul power formed a black and white vortex, which swirled wildly within Chu Ci's body like a tornado.

With Chu Ci's control, the black and white vortex rotated slower and slower, its size decreased, and it kept moving closer to the dantian.

The compression process has been smooth sailing so far, without any major incidents.

But crises often lurk beneath the surface of success!

Suddenly, Chu Ci rolled her eyes, and her brain suddenly felt dizzy.

The process of compressing soul power in the Yin-Yang Soul Core already consumes a lot of energy from Chu Ci. Moreover, perhaps due to the Divine Balance Martial Soul, the quality of the soul power in Chu Ci's body is extremely high. Currently, he has only discovered that Gu Yue's soul power quality is comparable to his, which further increases the difficulty of compressing soul power.

The frantic depletion of his mental energy caused Chu Ci to experience a momentary mental lapse.

However, this momentary mental lapse caused the compressed soul power to lose its balance, and the soul power of the yin and yang attributes instantly became disordered and began to explode within the body.

Chu Ci was shocked and began to desperately restrain the soul power in his body, but he could only curb the speed at which the Yin and Yang attribute soul power became disordered, and could not restore them to their original balance.

"Ah... Damn it!" Chu Ci roared in a low voice, veins bulging on his face. Once the Yin-Yang Soul Power exploded, it would be a devastating blow to his body. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, the impact on his future potential would be immeasurable.

Moreover, because Chu Ci is compressing his soul power and doesn't have enough to summon the Divine Balance Martial Soul, he is currently helpless.

At the critical moment, just as Chu Ci was about to call out to Ya Li to see if there was any way to save himself, a flash of silver light suddenly appeared beside him.

The next moment, the Dragon God Core landed in Chu Ci's hands.

When Chu Ci saw the Dragon God Core, he was stunned for a moment, and then, as if struck by inspiration, he activated the Dragon God Core.

The core of the Dragon God suddenly emitted a soft, seven-colored radiance, and Chu Ci's spiritual power was instantly boosted.

Chu Ci was overjoyed. He didn't care how a human could activate the Dragon God Core. He quickly focused his spiritual power to control the Yin and Yang attributes of his soul power.

"boom……"

A thunderclap seemed to resound within Chu Ci's body. The Yin-Yang soul power that had been restless was now obedient under the control of this spiritual power, and returned to the balanced black and white vortex of Yin and Yang.

Chapter 247 Yin-Yang Soul Core Formed, Third Soul Spirit

Outside the training room, Ya Li sensed that Chu Ci's condition had stabilized and breathed a sigh of relief; she had almost broken down the door just now.

Because of the problem in the training room, Yali didn't notice that Na'er was standing motionless behind her.

Na'er remained silent, her head bowed, her long silver hair falling naturally to cover her face, making it impossible to see the emptiness in her eyes.

"That was close! My brother almost got into trouble," Na'er thought to herself.

Another clear, cold voice suddenly rang in Na'er's heart.

“I’ve said it before, with me here, Chu Ci won’t have any problems.”

"Yes, yes, Gu Yue." Na'er rolled her eyes inwardly.

Chu Ci was able to activate the Dragon God Core just now because Gu Yue and Na'er worked together in secret.

Inside the cultivation room, after the Dragon God Core helped Chu Ci gather the Yin and Yang attribute soul power within his body, it restored another wave of soul power for him. Then, with a flash of silver light, it disappeared instantly.

The Dragon God Core is, after all, the power of the Dragon God. Even though Gu Yue and Na'er have granted Chu Ci, a human, the power to activate the Dragon God Core, it is only temporary. When the time comes, the Dragon God Core will naturally be taken back by Gu Yue.

Chu Ci mobilized his spiritual power, controlling the black and white vortex within his body to compress and shrink while condensing it towards his dantian.

Soon after, the black and white vortex finally arrived at Chu Ci's dantian and, under Chu Ci's control, gradually merged into a soul core that was half black and half white.

The soul core circulated within Chu Ci's body, surrounded by black and white energies, and a small Tai Chi diagram appeared within it.

Afterwards, when the Soul Core operates, it signifies that the Taiji Qiankun Dao is operating with power many times greater than before. This causes the Yin and Yang of Chu Ci's soul power to merge, circulate endlessly, and generate life indefinitely.

Meanwhile, when Chu Ci successfully condensed the Yin-Yang Soul Core, he broke through to level 70. After obtaining his seventh soul ring, he would become a true Soul Saint.

The door to the cultivation room opened, and Chu Ci walked out, his exhaustion barely concealed.

Ya Li stepped forward, grasped Chu Ci's wrist, and probed with powerful soul energy to carefully examine Chu Ci's condition.

Then Ya Li discovered the strangeness of the soul core in Chu Ci's body. The self-circulating and ever-renewing nature that she initially noticed shocked Ya Li.

"Chu Ci, you are truly a genius. Your future achievements will certainly not be inferior to Ming Ge's," Ya Li couldn't help but praise.

Ya Li thought to herself, "To forge a new path in soul core condensation, such creativity is probably only found in the ancestors Huo Yuhao and Tang San from ten thousand years ago."

Chu Ci bowed slightly and said gratefully, "Thank you for protecting me, Sister Ya Li. If it weren't for the life energy that Sister Ya Li provided, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to succeed so smoothly."

Yali waved her hand and said gently, "It's mainly because you are naturally gifted. The life energy I transferred can only ensure your safety, not help you condense your soul core."

Chu Ci chatted briefly with Ya Li, and after Ya Li confirmed that Chu Ci had no hidden injuries, she spoke to him.

"This time, condensing the soul core has greatly depleted your mental energy. Go back and rest well first. We can consider the seventh soul ring later."

"I understand, Sister Yali," Chu Ci said with a smile.

Na'er jumped out from behind, ran to Chu Ci's side, took his arm, and said playfully, "I'll go see my brother off."

……

As the two walked side by side back to the inner courtyard, Chu Ci suddenly turned to Na'er beside him and whispered, "I was able to activate the Dragon God Core because of your and Gu Yue's help, right?"

After Gu Yuena revealed her relationship with Na'er in Dragon Valley on the Star Luo Continent, Gu Yue secretly told Chu Ci about it, and Chu Ci finally no longer had to pretend to be stupid.

Na'er nodded obediently, "That's right, Gu Yue and I combined our strength and used a dragon clan secret technique to temporarily grant you the power of the Dragon God's core."

"Thanks to your help, otherwise I would be lying on the ground receiving treatment from Sister Yali right now," Chu Ci said with lingering fear. The feeling of having a time bomb inside you is really unpleasant.

……

Back in his dormitory, Chu Ci felt a wave of drowsiness wash over him, a side effect of excessive mental exertion.

Chu Ci yawned widely, then fell asleep and slept until the moon was high in the sky.

After eating something simple to replenish his energy, Chu Ci entered the Realm of Ciyue.

Upon entering, Chu Ci saw Gu Yue meditating and cultivating.

Gu Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly. After sensing someone enter, she opened her eyes and saw Chu Ci, and couldn't help but smile.

"Not bad, the soul core you condensed is very strong. In terms of soul power quality and recovery speed, no one of your level can match you in the future." Gu Yue stood up, looked him up and down, and quickly discovered some clues with his powerful spiritual power.

Chu Ci's soul power attraction to the external world's elemental energy is too strong. Moreover, after the elemental energy enters his body, it seems to enter a peculiar cycle, providing Chu Ci with more soul power.

"I have to thank you for delivering the Dragon God Core to me in time, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to condense the Soul Core," Chu Ci said.

Gu Yue smiled and said, "You said you would stand behind me, but haven't I also stood behind you?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Ci's eyes flashed with tenderness as he stepped forward and gently embraced Gu Yue.

Gu Yue leaned against Chu Ci's chest, quietly listening to Chu Ci's strong heartbeat.

After a tender moment, Gu Yue suddenly spoke up: "You've reached level seventy, which means you can form a contract with your third soul spirit. What are your goals for this soul spirit?"

"Yes," Chu Ci nodded and told Gu Yue about the Yin Yang Xuan Yuan Flower that had comprehended the power of creation.

Gu Yue frowned and said solemnly, "Comprehend the power of creation? There is such a genius among the immortal herbs, but this is not an opportunity, but a guillotine. This world will never allow a being who has mastered the power of creation to appear."

After saying that, Gu Yue grabbed Chu Ci's collar and said firmly, "Change it. You can't let the Yin Yang Xuan Yuan Flower become your soul. When it breaks through 100,000 years, the terrifying heavenly tribulation that follows will turn you to ashes."

"No, it's not necessarily impossible. The Divine Balance Martial Soul also possesses a portion of the power of creation. It was able to be born in this world and become my Martial Soul. So why can't other living beings?" Chu Ci said in a deep voice.

Gu Yue gripped Chu Ci's collar tightly, her voice trembling slightly, "I don't know how the Divine Balance Martial Soul was born in this world, but I can guess that when this Yin-Yang Profound Origin Flower breaks through 100,000 years, it will bring a heavenly tribulation that even Di Tian cannot withstand. I will never allow the Yin-Yang Profound Origin Flower to become your soul spirit."

Chu Ci grabbed Gu Yue's hand and said firmly, "I know it's dangerous, but I don't want to give up this opportunity that could make me rise to the top."

Chapter 248 Absorbing the Third Soul Spirit, A Terrifying Crimson Heavenly Tribulation

“If I could seize the power of creation, then I would truly have the right to challenge the gods. I don’t want to give up such a good opportunity,” Chu Ci said slowly.

“But the risk is too great, I see no hope.” Gu Yue’s eyes were full of worry.

"Don't worry, I'll have enough backup plans. Even if something goes wrong, I can get out of there safely," Chu Ci reassured him.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yue thought that with the power of the Scales of God, severing the fusion of souls shouldn't be a problem. Only then did he sigh and say helplessly, "Alright, but you must guarantee your safety."

"Then Gu Yue, you can rest assured. I'm someone who values ​​my life the most. When have you ever seen me disregard my life?" Chu Ci said with a smile.

The next day, Chu Ci, fully prepared, arrived at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye with Gu Yue.

The six plant-type soul beasts, including Qiluo Tulip, received Chu Ci's notification yesterday and are now waiting inside the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.

"Master Chu Ci, Your Majesty," said Qi Luo Tulip, bowing respectfully along with the other immortal herbs.

Chu Ci's eyes were deep as he said in a deep voice, "Today I have come here to help the Yin Yang Xuan Yuan Flower break through 100,000 years to become my soul spirit."

Qiluo Tulip solemnly cupped her hands and said, "Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Chu Ci."

Chu Ci nodded and added, "You should know how dangerous it is for the Yin Yang Xuan Yuan Flower to break through 100,000 years. Even I cannot guarantee that it will definitely succeed."

Qiluo Tulip sighed and said sadly, "Originally, when the Yin-Yang Profound Origin Flower embarked on the path of creation, its death and annihilation were inevitable. But now, with the hope given by Mr. Chu Ci, no matter how great it is, it is already a blessing. So Mr. Chu Ci, just do your best."

Chu Ci arrived in front of the Yin Yang Xuan Yuan Flower. This immortal herb, nourished by the life essence he had given it, was on the verge of breaking through 100,000 years, only needing Chu Ci to give it that final push.
