It's obvious that the bond between Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi will be unbreakable in the future. Getting acquainted with them now is always a good idea.

Helplessly, Xu Zihuang stretched out his slender index finger and pressed it on the head of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, which provoked a protest from Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. With a flash of golden light, it emerged from his other shoulder.

He mumbled something, but didn't say anything more.

“Sister Lingyi, Tianmeng does indeed have a million years of cultivation. However, its situation is rather special.” Xu Zihuang explained a few words, and at the same time, he stood up and touched Ye Guyi’s forehead again, transmitting the part of his memory about Tianmeng Ice Silkworm to Ye Guyi through his mental power.

Now that Tianmeng Ice Silkworm has shown itself, there's no need for him to hide these things anymore.

Ye Guyi began to digest that part, while Xu Zihuang returned to his seat, looked up at Electrolux, and said sincerely.

“Elder Yi, since Sister Lingyi trusts you, I am also willing to trust you.”

Electrolux nodded slightly, his smile remaining as gentle as ever.

After processing her memories, Ye Guyi quickly came to her senses, and her gaze towards Xu Zihuang held not only tenderness but also an indescribable pride.

Despite their difficult childhood, they have finally been blessed by heaven. Each of them has received an opportunity that is enough to defy fate.

"Zihuang, I have two purposes for bringing Elder Yi out this time. One is to tell you the correct way to use the Gold of Life, and the other is to teach you a special method of making a contract."

"The 'Gold of Life' refers to this carving knife, right?" Xu Zihuang took out the purified Soul-Devouring Carving Knife from his storage soul tool. The carving knife, clear as blue crystal, was brimming with vitality. The rich life aura it exuded made the three people and one beast present feel as if their bodies had been cleansed.

“This piece of living gold is of even better quality than I imagined. You little fellow are truly blessed.” Electrox sighed softly.

"If you trust me, put it on your forehead. Remember, no matter what happens later, don't panic, stay calm and leave everything to me."

"it is good."

Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi exchanged a glance, and then decisively placed the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife vertically between their eyebrows.

The Soul-Devouring Carving Blade, with its smooth, warm touch, suddenly shone with a brilliant azure light, and an intensely vibrant life force instantly flowed into Xu Zihuang's body through his brow. In that instant, Xu Zihuang's entire body was tinged with azure, including his sea of ​​consciousness.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm immediately returned to the sky above the Sea of ​​Spirit, observing the changes around it. It didn't completely trust Electrolux.

Xu Zihuang's body had long been accustomed to the cleansing of this life force, while Ye Guyi benefited from it.

Her meridians became more elastic, and her internal organs became more resilient. However, like Xu Zihuang, she was exceptionally talented, and her body was originally free of impurities and filth. This cleansing of life energy, at most, only served to enhance her already excellent condition.

Just then, the immense life force paused for a moment. The Soul-Devouring Carving Blade had somehow moved away from Xu Zihuang's brow, its sharp tip now pointing directly at it.

Driven by bodily instinct, he subconsciously released the external soul bone located between his eyebrows.

Strange scales of gold and silver suddenly appeared, shimmering with nine colors.

Ye Guyi and Electrolux already knew about Xu Zihuang's external soul bone beforehand, so they weren't surprised.

But what happened next caught Electrolux somewhat off guard.

The Soul-Devouring Carving Blade seemed to be swallowed by the scale, leaving no trace, and went straight into Xu Zihuang's brow.

As a result, Xu Zihuang's spiritual world underwent a tremendous transformation.

The sea of ​​spirit has completely turned into a blue ocean.

A second spiritual sea opened up between his eyebrows, and the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade quietly floated above this second spiritual sea.

The two spiritual seas are independent entities, but they can be connected to each other under Xu Zihuang's control.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm's eyes were filled with astonishment. However, having lived for millions of years, it understood that this was a rare opportunity for Xu Zihuang. Without reservation, it broke the seal and used its spiritual power to fill and expand Xu Zihuang's second sea of ​​consciousness.

When everything settled down, Xu Zihuang's original spiritual sea didn't change much, because before fusing with the head soul bone, his brain could no longer withstand the improvement in his spiritual power level.

However, the size of the second sea of ​​consciousness was expanded to the same size as the original sea of ​​spirit.

In other words, Xu Zihuang's total spiritual power is now twice what it used to be. Moreover, the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade in his second sea of ​​consciousness has special abilities waiting for him to discover.

Having discovered the mystery, Electrox said with relief, "So you little fellow had already subtly developed the rudiments of a second sea of ​​consciousness. And this scale..."

"Elder Yi, did it succeed?" Ye Guyi asked tentatively. She had only heard about the various miraculous properties of this Life Gold from Electrolux. She didn't know exactly what changes would occur.

Electrolux said calmly, "Although some changes occurred and the Eye of Life did not appear, the result is still the same. With the existence of that piece of Life Gold, this little guy's spiritual sea can be said to be immortal. Even his physical body will be affected by the Life Gold. No matter what kind of trauma he suffers in the future, as long as his brain is still intact, it will not be easy for him to die."

A smile bloomed on Ye Guyi's beautiful face, while Xu Zihuang, who was comprehending the wonders of his second sea of ​​consciousness, slowly opened his eyes.

As time passed, Electrolux, who had become increasingly ethereal, floated in front of Xu Zihuang, his fingertips touching Xu Zihuang's brow, and a gray light flashed past.

Having done all this, Electrolux's phantom vanished into thin air, leaving only his aged and weary voice echoing in the air.

"Little one, this is a contract method I developed after studying the cultivation system of your world. Your spiritual power level is above that of Bone Robe, so the success rate should be much higher if you use it. But the prerequisite is that those soul beasts agree to complete that equal contract with you. In my remaining memories, I have three abilities. Two of them were passed down to people belonging to my plane, and this last one is also the one I achieved the most and still retain. If you are willing, you can also try this inheritance with Bone Robe. Alright, that's all for now. My wisp of divine consciousness cannot leave Bone Robe's spiritual sea for too long. When I awaken next time, I hope you can tell me your answer."

Xu Zihuang remained silent for a long time, but his heart was filled with turbulent waves.

"This is... a method of soul fusion?"

Chapter 283 Breaking the Taboo

Following Electrolux, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm also went silent.

Although Xu Zihuang's original spiritual sea was not expanded, it was filled with a life force so dense it was almost tangible, thanks to the metal of life. Xu Zihuang's originally golden spiritual sea had turned into a vibrant blue-green.

It takes time for these life energies to gradually integrate into Xu Zihuang's body. During this period, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm can use this rich life energy to condense and stabilize its spiritual consciousness.

This will be of great benefit to it. When its spirit body becomes stable and strong enough, it can even transform into human form and temporarily leave Xu Zihuang's body to act independently, just like Elder Yi.

Of course, this is also closely related to Xu Zihuang's spiritual power level and cultivation. For Tianmeng Ice Silkworm to achieve this, Xu Zihuang would at least need to have the cultivation level of a Title Douluo and reach a tangible and substantial spiritual power level.

Since the most primordial power merged with Xu Zihuang, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Xu Zihuang have long been inseparable, sharing both glory and loss.

The master bedroom on the third floor of the attic was far less spacious than those in large hotels, but it was kept impeccably clean and tidy by Ye Guyi, and a refreshing, rich fragrance permeated the air. Soft, warm-toned soul-guided lighting cast a warm glow, making the room feel incredibly cozy.

The two sat facing each other at a wooden table carved with simple and elegant patterns. Through a wooden window not far away, they could see the green vines hanging over the courtyard. Influenced by the overflowing vitality, these vines became even more lush and vibrant.

Ye Guyi poured Xu Zihuang a cup of fragrant and warm black tea, then rested her chin on her hand, gazing at Xu Zihuang with a smile on her face.

Xu Zihuang couldn't help but pick up the exquisite porcelain cup and take a small sip. Meeting Ye Guyi's direct gaze, he was able to remain composed at first, but as time went on, he felt a little uneasy.

They had known each other for almost a year, and Ye Guyi had taken the initiative in many intimate and excessive ways. He knew that Ye Guyi had unusual feelings for him, but there was always a hurdle in his heart.

The dependence and closeness he felt in his childhood, coupled with the growing attraction Ye Guyi, now an adult, had after their reunion ten years later, resulted in complex emotions in his presence when facing her.

He trusted Ye Guyi completely, and their relationship was free of any calculation or self-interest. Similarly, this affection, which began as familial but began to change, was pure and sincere.

"Sister Lingyi, have you tried that method of soul fusion that involves forming an equal contract with a soul beast?" Xu Zihuang asked, his expression somewhat unnatural, trying to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.

Ye Guyi smiled and shook her head.

“Soul beasts and us soul masters are inherently opposed. When my mental strength was strong enough to perform that contract method, I was already at the Soul King level or above. If I choose to fuse with a soul spirit, I would at least need to find a soul beast with a cultivation of more than ten thousand years. Soul beasts of this level have considerable intelligence, so how could they possibly fuse with me willingly? However, Zihuang, your situation with that ice silkworm meets this condition, and you might be able to make history.”

A soul that has existed for millions of years.

When the conversation turned to serious matters, Xu Zihuang's expression became solemn, and his mind stirred slightly. His original plan was to make the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm his seventh soul ring. At that time, his spiritual power level would likely be able to advance further, and fusing with this unprecedented million-year-old soul spirit would not be impossible.

However, it's best to experiment with this soul spirit system first to accumulate experience. When the time is right, he can consider fusing a soul spirit into his second martial soul, the Purple Thunder Prison Dragon.

Or perhaps he could return to Moon Pivot Island and try it out for his loyal subordinates.

Thinking of this, Xu Zihuang took out a pendant necklace and a gold bracelet with beautiful patterns from his soul tool.

This gold bracelet is a level 6 invincible shield that he recently made in his dormitory.

The necklace, however, was a shimmering silver-white, with a central pendant in the shape of small, exquisite golden wings—the very image of Ye Guyi's Holy Angel Martial Soul when she unleashed it.

Level 6 Soul Tool: Milk Bottle.

Compared to the ordinary level-six baby bottles he previously sold to the Audu Auction House, he put much more effort into this pendant necklace. He meticulously crafted every component, down to the core magic array.

Although this is only a level six soul tool, most level seven soul masters would not be able to replicate it.

These two soul tools, crafted from top-grade rare metals, are far more luxurious and dazzling than ordinary jewelry. This is because such top-grade rare metals far surpass ordinary gemstones in both aesthetics and practicality.

"Sister Lingyi, these two level-six soul tools are a level-six healing bottle and a level-six invincible shield. With these two soul tools, I can feel more at ease about your trip."

Ye Guyi's gaze lingered on the two soul tools for a moment before turning to Xu Zihuang again, a strange smile appearing in her gentle golden eyes.

"Since it's a gift for me, shouldn't you put it on me yourself?"

With a slight curve to her red lips, she extended her slender hand to Xu Zihuang. Her five long, delicate fingers, as white as scallions, hung down in a slight arc.

Xu Zihuang had no choice but to wisely hold Ye Guyi's wrist with one hand and use the other to put the golden bracelet on her wrist. The golden bracelet glided across Ye Guyi's delicate skin, its light swirling, and it quickly and perfectly adhered to her skin.

Then Ye Guyi raised her jade-like neck, gesturing for Xu Zihuang to put the necklace on her.

It must be said that these two soul tools really complement Ye Guyi's flawless white skin and her smooth, long golden hair.

The small, golden wing pendant slipped into the deep cleavage, perfectly matching the golden wing-shaped pattern on Ye Guyi's chest.

Xu Zihuang's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

Ye Guyi appeared completely at ease, but in the next second, without warning, she grabbed Xu Zihuang's wrist and guided his hand to cover the golden wing-shaped pattern and pendant.

Caught off guard, Xu Zihuang felt the smooth, warm touch on his palm and froze on the spot.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Guyi suddenly stood up and leaned closer.

Their deep purple and golden eyes met, leaving only each other's reflections. Xu Zihuang's eyes were filled with astonishment, while Ye Guyi's eyes held only tenderness and lingering affection. Her long eyelashes brushed against Xu Zihuang's cheek; she was deeply moved and lost in the moment.

A moment later, Xu Zihuang subconsciously pursed his lips. The sweet, moist feeling between his lips proved that what had just happened was not an illusion. However, his right wrist was still firmly restrained by Ye Guyi.

“Sister Lingyi…” he murmured in a dry voice.

As if knowing what Xu Zihuang was thinking, Ye Guyi whispered, "Zihuang, we actually think the same thing, right?"

Xu Zihuang naturally understood what Ye Guyi meant. He opened his mouth but before he could speak, Ye Guyi tightened her grip on his wrist with her right hand, a smile on her face.

"Zihuang, why do you think you can attract those young girls but not me? My childhood memories are vivid, but that was ten years ago. We are no longer the children we were back then."

Seeing that Xu Zihuang still looked hesitant, Ye Guyi continued to respond with practical actions.

From the moment Xu Zihuang showed no resistance, she had already obtained the answer she wanted. What she needed to do now was to resolutely use her actions to erase that obstacle deep within Xu Zihuang's heart.

A strong possessiveness and long-suppressed emotions caused Ye Guyi, who was initially in control, to completely succumb. Xu Zihuang, on the other hand, began to take the lead. This time, his right hand no longer needed Ye Guyi to guide its movements; it was entirely driven by emotion and instinct.

Outside the window, the silvery moon drifted gently and disappeared into the clouds. Inside the room, light and shadow overlapped.

After a long while, strands of moonlight shone down, and two figures leaned against the windowsill, gazing at the night view of Mingdu in the distance.

Ye Guyi leaned on Xu Zihuang's shoulder, her pretty face slightly flushed. The height difference between the two was perfectly matched. Having calmed down considerably, she gazed at Xu Zihuang's profile, her eyes opening and closing, and said softly, "Zihuang, you seem quite skilled at this."

Xu Zihuang gave a wry smile, momentarily speechless. He couldn't very well tell Ye Guyi at this critical juncture that he and Ning Tian had already tried it before her.

It's not that I'm intentionally trying to hide it, but I simply feel it's not appropriate to say it at this time. I will definitely be honest, but not now.

Ye Guyi, seeing Xu Zihuang's expression, assumed he was still struggling with his decision. With a flash of light, she retrieved a blue-purple crystal ring engraved with a blue lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex from her storage soul tool.

Xu Zihuang's gaze narrowed slightly.
