Spirit cultivation and immortality, how do you control an aircraft carrier?

Upon hearing that voice, Shen Huang was completely stunned.

According to the description of the spirit awakening section in the jade slip, the spirit does not have the ability to communicate directly during the initial spirit awakening.

It can only convey some simple emotions.

That would be a sign of successful spiritual awakening, but it would take at least one or two hours.

Therefore, Shen Huang was completely unprepared.

However, this moment of stunned silence only lasted a very short time before he immediately came to his senses and was overjoyed!

It really worked?

"Xiao Wan, is that you?" Shen Huang asked in his mind, his voice trembling slightly.

"It's me." The voice was still faint, but this time, there was no doubt!

It really did!

It was much faster than expected.

However, just as Shen Huang was about to say something more, Xiao Wan's voice came again.

"Master, may I complete the final step of the Awakening first?" The voice was soft, but it seemed as if something was being suppressed.

Shen Huang suddenly realized, that's right, there's still the final step of awakening the spirit.

That is the shaping of quality, which is the innate talent of a spirit.

Generally, spirits can only truly convey emotions and engage in the most basic communication after completing this step, but in Xiao Wan's case, it was the opposite.

But now is not the time to explore.

"Give it your all," Shen Huang responded with unwavering conviction in his mind. "My talent, my passion, the combined efforts of countless elites, and the pinnacle of craftsmanship in this civilization—your quality will absolutely not be low!"

"Xiao Wan understands."

The instant Xiao Wan responded, Shen Huang could clearly sense that something around him had suddenly changed.

Not only him, but also He Ye and the other guards all suddenly narrowed their eyes!

Compared to Shen Huang, who was in the very center, those on the periphery had a much clearer view.

In that instant, the gray mist that had formed a vortex under the "Spirit Gathering Array" stopped abruptly, as if some powerful force had brutally penetrated into the vortex and ordered everything to stop.

And then, the entire vortex roared and exploded!

It surged wildly in a way that caught everyone completely off guard!

Under some powerful attraction, a large amount of gray fog shrieked as it surged into the vortex, rushing madly toward the location of the phone at the very center.

And this vortex expanded in the blink of an eye, clearly exceeding the effect of the "Spirit Gathering Array," enveloping everyone within it.

"Is this shaping the innate qualities of a spirit creature!?"

The guard named Shan Er shouted out, seemingly asking the others a question, but his tone was full of disbelief.

They are all people who have gone through this process.

Even if they use relatively ordinary items, they know that when a spirit is born and begins to shape its qualities, it will actively absorb the gray mist.

However—how could it be so crazy!

Shan Er still remembers how Guard Captain He Ye activated his spirit back then. He only absorbed about one-tenth of the gray mist gathered by the "Spirit Gathering Array," which already amazed them.

Even the lord took it seriously.

But now?

Is this five times, or ten times, the amount of gray mist gathered by the Spirit Gathering Array?

How could a newly born spirit, with at most a slight budding of self, possess such an ability?

Not only Shan Er, but all the guards, including He Ye, were incredulous at this moment.

They guessed that Shen Huang's spiritual item must be of high quality, after all, Shen Huang's talent was undeniable; he was a legendary top-tier prodigy.

However, the scene before them was still beyond their comprehension.

However, even if one cannot imagine just how powerful this quality is, anyone can see that it is absolutely extraordinary.

"Our little village is really going to produce a real big shot!" a guard muttered to himself, but then an indescribable excitement welled up inside him.

They didn't ask such a prodigy to stay, but as long as he could leave some benefit for the village, it would be enough to change their own and their family's fate!

Just then, from the depths of the gray fog behind them, came a series of dense, low roars, accompanied by a thick, malevolent aura.

All the guards' expressions changed slightly.

"Gentlemen, a formidable mist monster has been attracted here." He Ye gripped his spirit weapon longsword, his voice low yet resolute. "No matter what, we cannot allow Lord Shen's spirit-awakening ceremony to be disturbed!"

"Understood!" Shan Er and the others took out their weapons, their expressions showing more excitement than fear!

The gray fog vortex continued to expand, and just looking at this scene beyond their comprehension, they couldn't help but feel awe.

It was as if a future great being had been born before their very eyes!

In comparison, what are a few fog monsters?

"Perfect! Let's use these fog monsters as a blood sacrifice for Lord Shen Huang's spirit creatures!" Shan Er gripped his axe, his voice trembling slightly.

He glanced one last time at the very center of the gray mist, at the figure still seated cross-legged, then abruptly turned around and, aided by the radiance of the spiritual object, charged forward.

Under normal circumstances, when a spirit awakens, although some fog monsters will be attracted by the gathered gray fog, most of them are just insignificant little fog monsters that dare not approach in front of several second-stage Transcendent Spiritual Lights.

Only occasionally will some powerful fog monsters arrive, and then a fierce battle will ensue.

If they're particularly unlucky and a truly powerful being comes, this place is still not far from the sanctuary, so everyone can retreat in time. At worst, they can stop the awakening process and the quality will drop, which is better than dying.

But this time, it's different.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these guards, including He Ye, all seem to be in high spirits and full of confidence.

But they all knew in their hearts that this battle was different from any of the previous ones.

The gray fog is ultimately a terrifying place, a place occupied by fog monsters.

No one knows how many fog monsters this powerful commotion, this ever-expanding vortex, will attract.

However, even so, we must not give up easily!

Ordinary spiritual awakening is one thing, but if such power cannot reach its full potential due to the incomplete ritual, it would be a huge regret for their entire village, or even the town!

Shan Er's hand holding the axe was trembling slightly, but as long as he thought about the emergence of a genius like Lord Shen in the village and the enormous benefits that this would bring to the village, he was extremely excited.

"Die!"

A spiritual light shone from the axe, and with a single stroke, it cleaved a twisting, lunging tree spirit in two. The spirit's aura wailed as it was swept into the vortex, becoming nourishment for the ritual.
