Douluo Continent: I possess astonishing wisdom as I control energy!

……

A moment later, inside the pavilion,

Da Ming and Er Ming returned to their previous positions and sat down, but the atmosphere was no longer as relaxed as before, and it became somewhat dull.

After a long silence, Erming finally couldn't hold back and tentatively spoke up:

"Brother, what do you think about this?"

"Lie down and watch."

"They're not going to kill anyone?"

"No rush." ​​Da Ming said calmly, his eyes clear. "Although we don't know the specifics, there's no need to rush for now."

Da Ming pointed a finger at the head inside his body, "Since he withdrew his divine sense from our sea of ​​consciousness, it proves that he doesn't want other beings to know that he ordered us to kill."

"And what he would fear would likely be other deities. If we were to intervene, regardless of success or failure, I'm afraid..."

Da Ming sighed softly, not finishing his sentence, but the meaning was crystal clear.

"Are we just going to go and die like this?" Erming asked angrily, his voice filled with resentment.

"What's the panic?" Da Ming glanced at Er Ming. "Let's stall for time. That guy's afraid of being exposed as the one who ordered it, so he removed all the restrictions within our spiritual sea."

"Our divine senses were also withdrawn and sealed away in the secret room. In any case, at least for the time being, he cannot affect us."

"One day in the God Realm is equivalent to one year in the Douluo Realm. Let's stall for a few years. That guy is so pure and innocent, how could he possibly take action against us personally? He finds it disgusting."

Erming chuckled self-deprecatingly, but nodded in agreement, "That's true."

"Remember to send someone to the Sun Moon Empire to investigate, just to make a show of it. We can't just do nothing. If that guy doesn't urge us, let's leave it at that for now."

"clear."

Erming nodded slightly, then turned and left to relay the order.

Inside the pavilion, Da Ming drank tea alone, his gaze fixed on the distance.

That direction led to the Sun and Moon Empire.

……

……

In the blink of an eye, a few days later,

The Sun and Moon Empire, the Kong Family Residence.

"Boom——! Boom——! Boom——!"

The sound of fists shattering the air echoed throughout the training ground.

Having already doubled his workout for the day, Xiao Hongchen stared at Kong Ming'an in the arena with a twitching expression, then couldn't help glancing at his younger sister beside him:

"You drugged him?"

Meng Hongchen glanced at his older brother speechlessly and shook his head: "There's no such opportunity for now."

"Why has he been acting so outrageously these past few days?"

Xiao Hongchen's voice rose several octaves.

Four hours of high-intensity, excessive "body-training" practice is not just overtraining, but utter self-destruction!

If it were him, he would probably be in emergency care by now. How come this guy is still acting like nothing happened?

"Who knows? Perhaps it's Ming'an's latest achievement."

Miss Meng spoke casually, without the slightest surprise.

Ming'an was like this; he could produce impressive results every now and then, and his progress was incredibly rapid. She was already used to it.

Compared to these unimportant things, Miss Meng's icy blue eyes were fixed intently on Kong Ming'an, who was exercising shirtless not far away.

Hmm. Ming'an's figure is so good? I wonder what it feels like to touch. It must be pretty good?

With her eyes slightly narrowed, Miss Meng's lips curled up slightly, giving her an inexplicably relaxed air.

Time passed slowly, and after a long while, Kong Ming'an finally withdrew his fist, closed his eyes, and calmed his body.

Meanwhile, the illusory figure, visible only to Kong Ming'an, watched him with interest and commented:

"Using soul power as a foundation, it simulates special soul skills to stimulate acupoints throughout the body, thereby achieving the effect of body tempering."

"It's somewhat similar to the techniques knights practice, but it's also very different."

"This is simply a fundamental difference caused by the different power systems. Moreover, compared to the framework I designed, the current 'body cultivation' is still too rudimentary."

Kong Ming shook his head inwardly, speaking the truth without a trace of feigned modesty.

Faced with the potential threat of a certain god-king, he felt that the current achievements were not enough.

With a calm gaze, he spoke slowly.

"The knight system doesn't apply to the Douluo Continent, but I find the 'Blood Refined Golden Body' technique you gave me quite valuable."

Electrolux became interested. He had been observing Kong Ming'an's experiments for the past few days, and it was these experiments that made him increasingly certain that the boy in front of him was the same kind of person as him.

—He has a great interest in exploring the unknown.

He initially considered taking the boy as his disciple, but now his attitude towards the boy is more like that of an equal "fellow traveler".

"You're planning to use the essence blood of a soul beast instead of the blood of a demon beast?"

"No"

Kong Ming'an shook his head, his tone filled with anticipation, "Actually, we can be more direct, such as directly replacing the demon god's blood with 'qi and blood' to achieve the same result."

"Qi and blood forge a golden body."

Chapter 19 Nine-Year-Old Soul King Physique, I Gained It Purely Naturally!

Is his proposal of "Qi and Blood Forging a Golden Body" an indication that he wants to start researching it now?

That's not the case at all. He has a clear plan for himself, knowing exactly what to do and when to do it.

"Qi and Blood Forge a Golden Body" is indeed very important, but for him, who is currently very busy, it's just a project that he just created and named a new folder. He has the idea, but he doesn't even have a basic framework yet.

It is certain that this project will not generate revenue for him in the short term, and may even slow down his progress.

If that's the case, why did he even propose this project?

Naturally, it was to pique Electrolux's interest!

As a fellow researcher, he didn't believe Electrolux wouldn't be interested in this.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Electrolux pondered for a moment, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

"A clash and fusion of systems? That's certainly impressive."

Electrolux murmured, but after a moment's thought, he unconsciously shook his head: "Unfortunately, I haven't studied the knight system much; I'm more inclined towards magic and souls, so I can't offer you any help for now."

"It's ok!"

Kong Ming'an smiled, but instead directly transmitted a document titled "Self-Created Soul Ring" to Ilex using his mind.

"Mr. Yi, would you like to take a look at this?"

"Ok?"

Electrolux took it and glanced at it; his eyes immediately brightened.

This thing is interesting!

Electrolux became interested after just a few glances, but after watching for a while, he realized what was happening and looked at Kong Ming'an with amusement.

"You little rascal, you want me to be your laborer?"

"Well, ultimately, you're the expert when it comes to 'souls,' and besides, isn't this all for your resurrection? Don't you think soul rings have a high degree of potential for development?"

Electrox listened, then unconsciously glanced at the data regarding the speculation on "Spirit Ring Materialization," and chuckled and cursed:

"You little rascal!"

Electrolux sighed and nodded slightly. "Alright, I'll take care of this."

"Thank you, Mr. Yi."

"You're welcome. In your words, it's just a mutually beneficial arrangement."

Electrolux spoke with a smile, then transformed back into a gray streak of light and entered the Eye of Life between his brows.

Kong Ming'an breathed a slight sigh of relief.

With Electrox helping him continue advancing his spirit ring research, he no longer needs to focus his attention on the research itself.

Next step: cultivation and body strengthening!

And so, as planned, time began to pass day by day.

Spring goes and autumn comes; time slips away silently like grains of sand through your fingers. Before you know it, a year and a half has passed.

That year, Kong Ming'an turned nine years old, his soul power level was ten, and his physique was comparable to that of an ordinary Soul King.

In that year, the Sun Moon Empire secretly established three special Soul Master Battle Groups. The Sun Moon army began to harass the Star Luo army on the border in small squads, setting the stage for war on the frontier.

That year, the Grand Master and Second Master of the Haotian Sect simultaneously announced their intention to go into seclusion for cultivation, entrusting all sect affairs to the elders within the sect, and confirming the right of succession to the Young Master.

In the same year, a business association called "Mingmeng" began to emerge in the commercial market of the three major empires of Douluo Plain and gradually gained a monopoly in the soul tool market.

……

……

"Damn, how come you're so hard?"

Inside the laboratory of the Kong family mansion, Xiao Hongchen, who had obtained his second soul ring some time ago—a thousand-year-old one at that—clutched his fist, staring at Kong Ming'an in disbelief.

Kong Ming'an seemed to be deep in thought, but a slight smile appeared on his lips. "Perhaps... my constitution is rather special?"

Several years have passed, and the once somewhat immature boy has grown into a young man.

Although he was still developing, his physique was no longer as thin as before, and even a simple white lab coat couldn't hide his gentle, refined temperament, like a bamboo swaying in the breeze.

Her features were delicate, her eyes warm yet carrying a nonchalant, cynical air, perfectly complementing the faint smile at the corners of her lips.

In conclusion, with eyes that seem to look at dogs with deep affection, the signs of a scumbag are beginning to emerge, and they seem to be evolving further.

Of course, all of the above only applies to the opposite sex. In Xiao Hongchen's eyes, this guy is a total blondie, a pig trying to steal her cabbage, and he's just asking for a beating.

Hearing Kong Ming'an's perfunctory words, Xiao Hongchen finally couldn't hold back.

"So special that he can fight a Soul King single-handedly with his bare hands?! Do you think I'm stupid? This guy must have activated his powers, right?!"

"Hmm, who knows?"

Kong Ming'an smiled and shrugged.

He celebrated his ninth birthday a little over a month ago.

Meanwhile, he also practiced the "body tempering method" for two years and eight months.

Some might ask, "How can one possess a Soul King-level physique after only two years and eight months of cultivating the 'Body Tempering Method'? Isn't that an awakening?"

He can explain it here; it's very simple, he just opened it.

Don't forget, when the "Body Tempering Method" was first created, the average cultivation efficiency of other "Body Tempering Method" practitioners was only one-fifth of his usual cultivation efficiency.

This isn't because he monopolizes knowledge or hides good things from others.

It's because no one else can have such strong control over their own soul power as he does, not even those with titles.

Now, let's look at the results of his two years and eight months of cultivation, which brought his body to the Soul King level. If we were to compare that to someone with average talent, it would take at least thirteen to fourteen years.

Furthermore, his achievements in training his body to the Soul King level over the past two years and eight months, coupled with his almost unlimited resource provision and the terrifying regenerative power brought by the Life Gold,

If we make a reasonable calculation, it would take at least twenty years to obtain a Soul King level physique by relying solely on the "Body Tempering Method" without the subsequent "Ring Tempering Method".

The path of progress in "body cultivation" is reasonable; it's just that Kong Ming'an's approach is unreasonable.

"Your progress is not slow either. The second ring has a lifespan of 1,300 years. At this rate, you might be able to try for a soul ring of around 6,000 years for the third ring?"

After all, he was a genius who became a Soul King at the age of fifteen in the original work. Although Xiao Hongchen is sometimes a bit abstract, his talent can definitely be described as outstanding.

Xiao Hongchen raised an eyebrow, showing some interest. The third ring lasts six thousand years, so wouldn't the fourth ring have a chance to last ten thousand years?
