#902 - Upgrade your soul ring!
Simple and unadorned, yet unable to conceal its inherent divinity.
The Dragon Phoenix Goddess had completed the crucial step of shedding her superficial splendor.
The outward manifestations of power and strength were all restrained, returning to a state of plainness.
Perhaps, the current Dragon Phoenix Goddess was her true form.
Having successfully completed the Martial Soul Fusion Technique, the two were deeply shaken by the surging power within the Goddess.
In this state, their consciousness penetrated the golden furnace, instantly covering the virtually limitless Shadow Space.
Moreover, it wasn't long before even this limitlessness could not hinder the Goddess's consciousness from extending.
Her senses directly broke through the barriers of the Shadow Space, continuously expanding outwards.
The entire universe, the entire plane, was encompassed within the Goddess's perception at this moment.
Despite the influx of such vast and complex information, the Goddess effortlessly processed it all, and at the same time, the Law insights accumulated by Quan Yi and Huo Wu during this period were internalized into genuine knowledge, driving the improvement of their Law control.
After sorting and digesting the information, she didn't forcefully push forward, but instead raised her slender jade hand, gently forming a profound hand seal, and a magnificent crimson 100,000-year Soul Ring floated out from within her body.
This was Huo Wu's sixth Soul Ring, and also the origin that propelled Quan Yi towards self-condensed Soul Rings.
Since that was the case, then it should receive its first transformation.
The Goddess lightly flicked her finger, and the complete, magnificent Soul Ring suddenly transformed into light spots and dissipated.
However, very quickly, the light spots transformed back into a Soul Ring, with countless light spots scattering and reassembling before the Goddess's chest.
Although it repeated countless times, the entire process was exceptionally brief.
"Hmm, besides the Phoenix's Protection and Phoenix Cry Towards the Sun, this Soul Ring also contains other different skills."
After repeated testing, Quan Yi saw the other skills hidden within the Soul Ring's origin.
Unlike self-condensed Soul Rings, Soul Rings composed of the heterogeneous origins of Soul Beasts could be evolved and selected by Quan Yi and Huo Wu, but they couldn't forcibly add extra 'heterogeneous substances'.
The rejection reaction between different heterogeneous substances would cause instability in the origin, and even if forcibly fused, it would become a significant unstable element in high-intensity battles.
Therefore, selecting promising parts from the original origin and nurturing them would be more cost-effective.
Huo Wu currently had over ten skill factors displayed before her.
"Body strengthening skills, close-range single-target powerful attack skills, control skills...
What skills should I choose?"
The happy annoyance of being able to choose freely once again found Huo Wu.
Seeing Huo Wu's slight annoyance, Quan Yi suggested, "Among all the skills to retain, the best and strongest skills are the two you've already obtained.
For the remaining one, compared to the already powerful control skills, pure body strengthening skills might also be an excellent choice."
Huo Wu carefully considered Quan Yi's suggestion and replied:
"Indeed, I currently possess two sets of armor, yet I don't have a single effective close-range offensive skill.
In that case, instead of continuing to play to my strengths, I can choose to avoid my weaknesses and make up for the lacking parts.
Since that's the case, I've made my choice."
Quan Yi nodded in agreement, and then began to transform the Soul Ring.
The Goddess's fingertip moved, and the Soul Ring shattered once again, except this time, the Yang纹 (yang纹: Yang pattern) of Huo Wu's brow appeared on the back of the Goddess's hand.
The Divine Power, fused with the Ultimate Light and Ultimate Fire, was massively integrated into the Soul Ring, starting the transformation from the most fundamental Soul Ring attribute.
Evolving this Soul Ring from a Undead Phoenix to a Sacred Spirit Phoenix had a very high degree of compatibility with the equally sacred Ultimate Light.
In that case, why not incorporate the Ultimate Light when evolving the Soul Ring?
The energies of the Ultimate Light and Ultimate Fire propelled the origin of the Soul Ring, that is, the origin of the Sacred Spirit Phoenix, to evolve to a higher level of bloodline.
At this moment, a pair of magnificent golden-red wings unfolded on the Goddess's back.
The Phoenix Bone Wings from the Sacred Spirit Phoenix also entered a synchronized evolution stage under the Goddess's control.
The already sacred wings became even more powerful with the flavor of holiness and purity after being infused with the power of Ultimate Light.
The sacred and scorching Phoenix Wings actually made the Goddess look like a descended angel.
The part belonging to the Sacred Spirit in the Sacred Spirit Phoenix bloodline burst forth with its own brilliance under the infusion of the Ultimate Light.
A pure spiritual fluctuation, both scorching and capable of cleansing the soul, spread from the Goddess's body.
During this process, Quan Yi and Huo Wu inside the Goddess jointly enjoyed soul soothing and massage.
The damage and fatigue that had seeped into the deepest part of their souls seemed to be eliminated one by one under the caress of a pair of gentle hands.
Quan Yi keenly noticed that his soul had not strengthened after being combed, but the smoothness and calculation speed had significantly improved.
Unexpectedly, the fusion of the Sacred Spirit and the Ultimate Light had such a miraculous effect, capable of relieving soul fatigue and restoring it to its optimal state.
This was because Quan Yi's soul had not damaged its origin, otherwise, he could have also enjoyed the Sacred Spirit Light's effect of replenishing the soul's origin.
The Soul Bone was the first to complete its evolution, as the Soul Bone, which was already at the Divine level, only needed to complete the integration of the Ultimate Light to complete its evolution.
The evolved Soul Bone gave birth to a brand new Phoenix bloodline power.
The peculiar bloodline power, fused with sacredness and scorching heat, spirit and bloodline, under the control of the Dragon Phoenix Goddess, flowed along the body and into the origin of the Soul Ring.
With the catalysis of this homologous bloodline power, the Soul Ring's own bloodline also rapidly improved, and the absorption efficiency of the Ultimate Light also greatly increased.
There was a strange shadow flickering with streamers under the Goddess's feet.
This shadow was frantically absorbing the power of the sun and moon, transmitting it into the Goddess's body.
Faced with the Soul Ring's greatly increased absorption efficiency, the black shadow expanded outward by a factor of one, increasing the intake of energy.
The new Dragon Phoenix Goddess's energy conversion efficiency also sublimated accordingly.
The Soul Ring's efficiency in absorbing Divine Power couldn't keep up with the speed of Divine Power recovery.
"Chirp."
Along with a rich and powerful Phoenix bloodline aura and a phoenix cry, the 100,000-year Soul Ring, shimmering with a crimson luster, burst forth with a dazzling golden light from its depths.
The divine light spread rapidly from one point to the entire ring.
When all the origins successfully entered the million-year level, her slightly flickering eyes accurately selected the two hidden skills within the academy and, together with the original two skills, occupied the four corners of the Soul Ring.
Seizing the opportunity, the Goddess softly called out, "Condense!"
The scattered origins instantly solidified.
Upgrade successful, Divine-level Soul Ring!
