Chapter 223: Chapter 222: Progress of Partners
"The progress wasn\'t fast at first, but it seems that the Purple Sun Fruit is especially beneficial for the training of Purple Demon Eyes; my progress has significantly quickened recently. I can already externally project my spiritual power to launch assaults."
"Good, the technique I\'m teaching you is a bit complex, I call it the Mother-Son Soul-Chasing Ball. When you start training, you should begin with one Mother-Son Soul-Chasing Ball."
Originally, the Mother-Son Soul-Chasing Ball was a concealed weapon crafted from metal, capable of remarkable power. But with Wu Bingji\'s Ice Spirit change, Tang San had devised a method for him to create it using ice element, which would be even more powerful and effective.
"First, you need to condense ice needles, and inside the ice needles, prepare a two-stage acceleration. You can start with two ice needles, and add an extra layer of shell outside of them. Once thrown, the shell will explode upon any collision or can be detonated actively, but during the explosion, it must not damage the ice needles inside, and instead should propel them. Therefore, the condensation of this shell is very important. The accelerated ice needles will charge toward the enemy, then achieve a second acceleration in the air, using constant acceleration to catch your opponent off guard. Eventually, they will pierce the enemy\'s body, followed by an Ice Blast."
Upon hearing his explanation Wu Bingji couldn\'t help but be stunned, "This, this is possible for a human to achieve? Can you do it with your wind element?"
Tang San shrugged his shoulders and said, "I can\'t! Not right now, anyway. Maybe with divine-ranked strength, I could give it a try. The wind element is too free-flowing to maintain stability. But the ice element is much easier. I believe you can do it."
Wu Bingji said helplessly with a wry smile, "What can I do? I\'ve been training for so long just for a second acceleration on a single ice needle, and what you\'ve described, is this really a power humans can control?"
Tang San smiled and said, "How can a technique be called complex if there\'s no difficulty? This one is definitely among the top of all the concealed weapon techniques I know. So, take it step by step, bit by bit. When you can fit a hundred ice needles within a single Ice gall, you\'ll have reached a significant level of mastery. Let me first teach you how to refine the shell. You can start with a small number of ice needles inside, without the two-stage acceleration. And generally speaking, the Mother-Son Soul-Chasing Balls are meant to be launched in pairs. Because if the enemy dodges, what if one doesn\'t explode on contact? With two, we can use the swiftly or Two Dragons Play with Pearls technique to make them collide on their own."
"Wait, wait, now we have swiftly and Two Dragons Play with Pearls too. I\'m feeling dizzy," Wu Bingji said with a helpless expression on his face.
"Take it slow, we\'ll go step by step, I\'ll teach you how to refine the Ice gall first, you get that down before we talk about the rest." Thereupon, Tang San began to explain the refining method of the Ice gall to Wu Bingji.
Although Wu Bingji didn\'t believe he could truly master the Mother-Son Soul-Chasing Ball, he still listened very attentively.
Before he knew it, he had gradually entered a state of epiphany, and by the time he had a preliminary understanding of the principles of the Ice gall refining, Tang San had long since left.
However, Tang San didn\'t leave the academy directly but went to look for his several senior brothers and sisters.
As it had been a while since his last visit, he decided to check on the others\' cultivation progress while meeting with the eldest senior brother.
"Brother Du Bai," Tang San first arrived at Du Bai\'s room.
"Eh, Xiao Tang, you\'re back? I didn\'t see you today," Du Bai, upon opening the door and seeing him, immediately embraced him in a hug.
Tang San followed him into the room and closed the door.
"How is it going?" Tang San asked with a smile.
Full of excitement, Du Bai said, "The Purple Sun Fruit is truly amazing! My spiritual power has now completely liquefied, and the whole Sea of Spirit seems to have been stretched open. My spiritual power has improved greatly; the extent of the daily increase is so significant that even I find it hard to believe. I can feel that my bloodline is also changing under the influence of such strong spiritual power. It\'s as if my spiritual force can filter my bloodline power, and after filtering, it becomes much purer."
Tang San nodded and said, "That\'s the benefit of improving spiritual power. Do you feel like you\'re about to break through to the Fifth Stage?"
"Not yet," Du Bai said. "I\'ve only eaten one Purple Sun Fruit. After I eat another one, I think I\'ll be close to having a chance."
Tang San\'s eyes lit up, "That\'s great, looking forward to your breakthrough! Release your Purple Demon Eyes and let me see the strength of your spiritual power now."
"Alright."
Du Bai turned around, facing Tang San sideways, his eyes instantly turned purple, and twin bolts of purple lightning-like light burst forth from his eyes.
The substantial purple light shot out more than a foot, and it also had a cohesive and undispersing quality. The strong spiritual fluctuation caused Tang San\'s Spirit Rhinoceros Eye to feel like it was about to release on its own.
As the light receded, Du Bai turned back to Tang San with delight, "How about that? How is it?"
Tang San gave him a thumbs up, "Very good, judging purely from the spiritual power level, you\'re already comparable to a typical Seventh Stage. Once your Heavenly Fox Transformation breaks through to the Fifth Stage, I estimate there will be an additional boost to your spiritual power."
Truly worthy of being a top-tier bloodline! With just Fourth Stage of cultivation base, his spiritual power has reached the Seventh Stage. Keep in mind, Du Bai does not possess divine consciousness nurturing; the development of his spiritual power to this extent must be closely related to the Heavenly Fox Bloodline.
"I feel more and more confident now. And I think the greatest luck that Heavenly Fox Transformation has brought me is having you come into my life! Hahaha!" As the Heavenly Fox Transformation began to improve, the darkness within Du Bai\'s heart gradually dissipated. Even the Fourth Stage of Sky Fox\'s Eye also had its significant role, and when it reached the Fifth Stage, its effect would naturally be even greater.
"No, meeting you all is my luck," Tang San said.
Following this cultivation method, Du Bai\'s Sky Fox\'s Eye should have a chance to advance to the Sixth Stage. However, the barrier between the Sixth and Seventh Stage is clearly not something that can be breached by sheer spiritual power alone.
Once he reaches the Sixth Stage, his spiritual power should have reached the Ninth Stage. Spiritual power alone cannot break through to a higher divine consciousness level, and when he encounters a bottleneck in spiritual power, if he wants to continue enhancing the Sky Fox\'s Eye, he will have to work on evolving his bloodline. This is a troublesome issue. Unless he can hunt a high-stage member of the Heavenly Fox Clan and use their blood, there\'s a possiblity. But members of the Heavenly Fox Clan are Children of Luck, let alone a higher-staged one, even the lower-staged ones are not easy to hunt! This is a big problem. I\'ll have to check later if the Redemption Organization has a way to collect the blood of the Heavenly Fox Clan.
Of course, he wouldn\'t mention any of this to Du Bai for now. The Purple Sun Fruits purchased this time totaled five for Du Bai. If two could induce his advancement to the Fifth-stage Sky Fox\'s Eye, the remaining three should be able to push his spiritual force to a higher level, making the Sixth Stage not far off.
Tang San wanted to ensure that all of his Demon God Transformations reached the peak of the Sixth Stage before he tried to break through to the Seventh. Ideally, they would break through together. Currently, it seemed unlikely for the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, but there was still a chance for the other transformations.
He had already planned to change the Flash Leopard Transformation, and what it would become was beyond question. Teleportation undoubtedly had many times the advantage of Leopard Flash, especially since it involved controlling the powerful bloodline of space power.
