However, Ye Guyi's fusion of the soul bone still lasted a full three days. It wasn't that something went wrong during the fusion process, but rather that she entered a state of deep meditation after gaining some insights.
However, she is currently at the bottleneck of level 70, and the benefits of deep meditation cannot be reflected in her soul power level before she obtains her seventh soul ring.
In fact, her deeper insights from deep meditation came from the Golden Flame Bird's right arm bone, which provided her with a clearer understanding of the true meaning of light and fire. The soul skill associated with that Golden Flame Bird's right arm bone was also related to this kind of ability.
Having successfully fused with the soul bone, Xu Zihuang carefully sensed it with his spiritual power and found that Ye Guyi's physical strength was now no less than Ma Xiaotao's. However, fusing a 100,000-year-level soul ring at level 70 was still far too difficult.
As planned, Xu Zihuang began to have Ye Gu's clothes enhanced with whale glue.
Three days later, on the day Ye Guyi finished her deep meditation.
Silver starlight and moonlight climbed up the windowsill, and the gold-threaded curtains swayed from side to side with the sea breeze.
Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi, who had just finished dinner, returned to the central room on the top floor of the castle, where the crystal chandelier on the ceiling illuminated the room brightly.
Ye Guyi bent her long, straight legs, hugged her knees, and leaned against the headboard.
Xu Zihuang sat by the bed, using the intense heat from his ultimate lightning strike to soften the fist-sized piece of 100,000-year-old whale glue. As the heat increased, it gradually transformed into a soft, gelatinous substance, like gold in a semi-molten state, emitting a rich fragrance. It was also enveloped in a golden glow, making it extremely mystical.
Xu Zihuang called out softly.
"Sister Lingyi."
"Feed me." Ye Guyi stared straight at Xu Zihuang, a strange smile appearing in her noble and aloof golden eyes.
"it is good."
Xu Zihuang chuckled and used his left hand to pinch off a small piece, which he then brought to Ye Guyi's lips.
Ye Guyi didn't eat it, but continued to repeat the sentence with her smile unchanged.
"Feed me."
Xu Zihuang was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly understood what Ye Guyi meant.
At this moment, Ye Guyi's smile faded a bit. She stretched out her jade-like foot and placed it on Xu Zihuang's thigh, saying with a hint of jealousy.
"Feed me the same way your senior, Orange, fed you before."
Gazing into Ye Guyi's eyes, Xu Zihuang, feeling apologetic, no longer hesitated. He put the whale gel in his mouth and, under Ye Guyi's ambiguous gaze, got up and moved closer.
Whale gum hardens gradually as the heat decreases. In the oral cavity, this hardening process is significantly prolonged.
Ye Guyi stretched out her arms and hugged Xu Zihuang's neck, enjoying being fed by Xu Zihuang with a smile on her face.
Again and again, until the fist-sized piece of ancient whale glue was completely swallowed.
Ye Guyi stuck out her tongue and licked her lips with satisfaction, then patted Xu Zihuang's shoulder as if in praise.
"Good performance."
After consuming a piece of 100,000-year-old whale glue, Ye Guyi's pretty face flushed slightly. A strong heat flowed through her limbs and bones.
But that's all. Whale collagen is a highly yang and potent tonic, possessing a certain aphrodisiac effect, but that's only for men.
Using whale glue on leaf bone clothing completely eliminates these side effects.
But she soon found herself unable to remain so composed. The medicinal effects of the 100,000-year-old whale glue were too immense, forcing her to quickly sit cross-legged and enter a meditative state, mobilizing all her soul power to absorb it.
Xu Zihuang breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down on the chair by the bed, guarding Ye Guyi. Fortunately, Ye Guyi had been so engrossed in the task that he had obediently licked everything clean, leaving not a single drop. Otherwise, if he had accidentally ingested some, he would have been in considerable discomfort. With his bodily functions nearing completion and his internal energy at its peak, such intense stimulation could have caused him to explode at any moment.
For the next month or so, Ye Guyi continued to consume whale glue to strengthen his physique. The whale glue he consumed was, of course, from the 50,000-year-old giant demon whale. That piece of whale glue was the size of a millstone; if he were to consume and refine it all, the effect would definitely be better than that fist-sized 100,000-year-old whale glue.
Ye Guyi would take a small piece every day. To promote absorption and maximize the effectiveness of the whale gelatin, Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi would engage in fierce battles every day until Ye Guyi was exhausted.
Although Ye Guyi's Holy Angel Martial Soul was extremely powerful, it was completely outmatched by Xu Zihuang. She was suppressed throughout the entire encounter. As for the abilities Elder Yi had taught her, it was definitely not advisable to use them under these circumstances, since they weren't fighting to the death. It wouldn't be good if those strange abilities were seen.
Wang Xiao returned safely during this time. Xu Zihuang personally handed over the design blueprints for the Level 9 fixed-mount soul-guided cannon and other high-level soul-guided devices to Wang Xiao.
There's also the method for making a thunder rocket.
Making a Thunder Rocket isn't difficult. The key lies in synthesizing the rare metal alloy Thunderfire Gold in the correct proportions.
Xu Zihuang himself also spent more than a month in arduous training, and with the support of the spiritual attribute soul core, his soul power cultivation was steadily improving.
He has been away training for more than three months, and now there are less than half a year left before the start of the next All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament.
In another month, he will be seventeen years old.
The castle is located on the west coast, above the crescent-shaped inner sea.
Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi stood facing each other.
Ye Guyi held the golden-white Angelic Holy Sword, pointing it forward. A massive sword beam instantly streaked across the sky, covering a distance of tens of meters, and slashed vertically downwards towards Xu Zihuang's body.
Xu Zihuang held the Thunder Holy Sword and the Destruction Holy Sword in his hands. With his left hand, he slashed horizontally with the Destruction Holy Sword, unleashing a massive sword beam, but this time it was a deep purple.
The clash between vertical and horizontal forces is also a collision between destructive and divine attributes.
Ye Guyi's invincible divine attributes completely lost their advantage in front of Xu Zihuang.
The golden-white sword light was corroded by wisps of deep purple, then shattered in mid-air, turning into countless specks of light. A terrifying surge of soul power swept over, causing the sea below them to tremble.
Ye Guyi frowned slightly, and a pair of pure white wings flapped behind her, appearing before Xu Zihuang in the next moment. The tip of the golden-white light sword in her hand trembled slightly, transforming into thousands of sword shadows.
Xu Zihuang's eyes flashed with obscure, brilliant golden patterns as he shifted his body using the dark red crystal mirrors in the air. His hands wielded the Holy Sword of Destruction and the Holy Sword of Thunder, engaging in a series of exquisite parries.
The clash between the two had already left Nana, who was watching from the shore, in a daze. She knew that even if she broke through to the Soul Emperor level, she was still not on the same level as Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi.
"Clang!" A crisp explosion rang out as Xu Zihuang gripped the Holy Sword of Destruction in his backhand and held it in front of him, while Ye Guyi's Angelic Holy Sword, which had come into contact with it, shattered with a crash.
To some extent, the Destruction attribute can counter any other attribute. Leafbone Robe's Holy attribute is no exception.
With each collision, the Angelic Holy Sword, forged by Ye Guyi using the power of the Holy Angel Martial Soul's origin, would be eroded by the destructive attribute. After so many consecutive collisions, it had long since begun to collapse from the inside out.
Xu Zihuang controlled the Destruction Holy Sword and the Thunder Holy Sword to dissipate in the air, then lightly touched the ground with his toes and naturally embraced Ye Guyi's slender waist.
"Sister Lingyi, no matter how many times I try, it's still the same. The destruction attribute of my second martial soul is still too special."
Having carefully experienced the power of this weapon-type soul skill during this time, he began to have the idea of adding this kind of soul skill to his second martial soul, the Purple Thunder Prison Dragon.
"That's not what I care about."
Ye Guyi gave a charming hum, and the slight annoyance in her eyes instantly turned into a sweet smile. She wrapped her arms around Xu Zihuang's waist and back, and spread her angel wings to climb higher.
She was naturally pleased by Xu Zihuang's strength. What frustrated her was that her current strength was inferior to Xu Zihuang's; how could she possibly protect him?
But now she feels at peace. Some things are beyond change, and enjoying the feeling of being pampered and protected by Xu Zihuang doesn't seem so bad.
Chapter 326 Return to the Mainland
Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi ascended to a height of over a thousand meters, with Yue Shu City shrouded in a golden-red sunset in the distance.
Ye Guyi's pure white wings enveloped their bodies, transforming into a giant cocoon of light as they plummeted downwards.
The speed of their descent increased rapidly. After a dozen or so breaths, just as they were about to plunge into the sea, the angelic wings behind Ye Guyi suddenly unfurled, whipping up violent waves.
The hundred-meter-long warships moored in the crescent-shaped inner sea were all slightly undulated by the wind and waves.
Ye Guyi, her face flushed, withdrew her martial spirit. Xu Zihuang, understanding, carried Ye Guyi and, stepping on the crystal mirror, walked step by step to the shore at the edge of the inner sea.
There are also ports built around this inland sea. However, these are the private ports belonging to Viscount Yue Nan, Yao Yang. At this moment, besides Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi, only Nana is serving them.
"Master, mistress."
As soon as Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi touched the ground, Nana hurriedly came over with a tray.
Two glasses of freshly squeezed juice with ice are placed on the tray. Through the crystal-clear glass, the small, distinct pieces of fruit pulp can be clearly seen inside.
Xu Zihuang casually took the cups and handed one of them to Ye Guyi, nodding in acknowledgment.
"Sister Lingyi, let's go."
"Mmm." Ye Guyi took Xu Zihuang's arm and responded softly, reverting to her usual aloof and dignified demeanor.
Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi walked up the blue stone steps toward the castle, while Nana silently followed behind them.
Unbeknownst to him, Xu Zihuang had already spent over a month on Moon Pivot Island. Having achieved his goals, there was naturally no need for him to linger there any longer.
Today, he and Ye Guyi are preparing to leave Moon Pivot Island and return to the mainland.
To avoid attracting attention, they scheduled their departure by sea for nighttime. Before leaving, a farewell banquet would be held at the castle.
When Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi arrived at the castle, it was just getting dark. Soft, soul-guided streetlights illuminated the wide square in front of the castle, creating a bright and peaceful atmosphere.
Several tables were laden with a variety of delicacies and drinks.
No one, including Wang Xiao and Yao Yang, took their seats; they were clearly waiting for Xu Zihuang.
Upon seeing Xu Zihuang and Ye Guyi approach, Wang Xiao and a group of soldiers from the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Corps respectfully saluted.
"Young Master, Miss."
"Please don't stand on ceremony, everyone. Please take your seats." Xu Zihuang smiled slightly and led Ye Guyi to the round dining table in the center. Wang Xiao, Yao Yang, and other senior members of the Imperial Dragon Soul Instructor Group were there to keep them company.
For example, Linlong, Mengcang, and Elder Yu and Elder Cheng, who are not strong in cultivation but have more seniority.
After Xu Zihuang and the others took their seats, the others followed suit.
Everyone was in high spirits. They clinked glasses and chatted loudly. Since Soul Masters could readily use their Soul Power to evaporate the alcohol from their bodies, there was no need to deliberately abstain from alcohol.
Instead, many of them will be on board as guards for a period of time in the coming period, so it's good for them to relax a bit beforehand.
The amber-colored liquor shimmered with a dazzling halo under the illumination of the Soul Guiding Light.
After clinking glasses with everyone, Xu Zihuang took a small sip of the aged white wine in his delicate crystal glass. The subtle fragrance instantly filled his mouth, a truly delightful experience.
Even after Ye Guyi sat down, she still leaned against Xu Zihuang.
Just then, Wang Xiao, who had recently finished his secluded research, spoke up: "Young Master, the design drawings for that thing are fine and complete. Mingde Hall shouldn't have hidden any details from you. However, it's quite difficult to manufacture, and it requires many extremely rare metals. Some of these rare metals are firmly controlled by the Sun Moon Empire, making them very difficult to purchase through conventional channels."
“I’ll handle the rare metals issue,” Xu Zihuang said thoughtfully.
"Elder Wang, with your level nine soul master abilities, if there are enough materials, how long would it take to successfully manufacture a level nine fixed-mount soul guide cannon?"
Wang Xiao responded decisively, "Success is certain within a year."
While his abilities at the Soul Master level lean towards close-combat Soul Tools, many are quite similar. Moreover, this fixed-mount Soul Cannon is unique; he only needs to maximize its power, and other aspects can be disregarded.
The difficulty in making them is actually not as great as that of ordinary soul tools that are driven by soul power.
This is why Fan Yu, Xian Lin'er, and Qian Duoduo were so excited back then. Many level-nine soul tools are the result of a level-nine soul master's dedication, combining their own abilities and characteristics.
It is very difficult to replicate.
Just like the Sun and Moon Divine Needles of Starry Sky Douluo Ye Yulin. Even if other level nine soul masters had complete and detailed design blueprints, they might not be able to successfully create them.
