Chapter 115: Qian Daoliu Condenses a Soul Core
At this moment, Zhou Heng finally remembered that he had just accepted a God Trial from the Angel God.
Although the first trial was a complete giveaway, the remaining six trials would likely be of no small help to him.
Zhou Heng sensed the light cocoon in his mind and inquired about the task for the next God Trial.
As the light cocoon pulsed slightly, the second trial appeared in Chen Ming's mind.
"Angel Seven Trials, Second Trial: Defeat Qianjun Douluo and Jiangmo Douluo. Reward: Soul power increased by one level. Time limit: One hundred years."
"What?"
Looking at his second trial, Zhou Heng slowly typed out a question mark.
Defeating two Title Douluo, who were also Super Douluo with super martial souls, only rewarded a one-level increase in soul power?
No, buddy, aren't you being a little stingy?
Zhou Heng wanted to complain, but then he remembered that he had first obtained the swordsmanship of the Angel God and the past High Priests through contact with the Angel Holy Sword.
Then he strengthened his martial soul through the Angel God's statue, and later, at level fifty, he picked up the first trial for free, which was equivalent to getting a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring for nothing.
Alright, given the Angel God's assets, it seems that besides the Angel Holy Sword and the Angel Divine Equipment, she probably only had herself and the Spirit Hall left; there really was nothing else to give him.
Being able to increase soul power by one level is better than nothing, right? What if the subsequent God Trials provide even better things?
After all, this is only the second trial.
Zhou Heng comforted himself this way, opened his eyes, and the fierce aura on his body vanished in a flash.
After absorbing the Right Palm Bone, the five fingers of Zhou Heng's right hand had turned into five sharp blades; as Zhou Heng moved his fingers slightly, the sound of air being torn apart followed.
Although Zhou Heng did not reveal any malice and was merely moving his fingers, everyone present felt as if they had been slashed by a sharp blade.
Qian Renxue, whose strength was the weakest, could not help but take a step back, and only calmed down after grabbing Qian Daoliu's hand.
That was the oppressive feeling brought about by the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear soul bone after breaking through the hundred-thousand-year threshold and returning to its origin; if a Spirit Master with a bear-type martial soul were under this pressure, nine out of ten would kneel and kowtow to Zhou Heng.
"As expected of you; this soul bone truly cannot pose any threat to you."
Qian Daoliu had already given up on further investigating just how strange Chen Ming was.
In his heart, Zhou Heng was now some deity who had descended into the human world.
As a deity, whatever strange things that transcended common sense happened to him were a matter of course.
Zhou Heng suddenly thought of something and said to the Honorary Elders and Qian Renxue: "Seven teachers and Senior Sister, this time I have researched a secret technique that can guarantee that Spirit Masters above the seventh ring can break through to the Title Douluo realm.
I intend to hand this secret technique over to the Spirit Hall to enhance the strength of the Spirit Hall."
Zhou Heng's words shocked everyone present.
After all, in this era, Title Douluo were still very rare existences; a secret technique that could stably break through to Title Douluo was incredibly precious.
Crocodile Douluo hurriedly asked: "Little Heng, is what you said true? Can one really stably break through to Title Douluo?"
Zhou Heng nodded solemnly and explained the matter of condensing a Soul Core to everyone.
"Condensing a Soul Core? Are there any hard requirements for practicing this secret technique?" Qian Daoliu asked his question.
Zhou Heng said: "There are indeed some requirements.
First, one's mental power must reach the Title Douluo level; only then can one ensure that the condensed soul power will not dissipate while condensing the Soul Core.
Furthermore, after the Soul Core is initially condensed, the circulation of soul power also requires the assistance of mental power until the Soul Core can circulate soul power on its own, at which point one can relax their mental power.
Second, one needs extremely strong soul power control; this is the most important point and the key to ensuring one does not die after failing to condense a Soul Core.
Third, one must have at least the total soul power of a Soul Saint to be able to condense a Soul Core."
After hearing the three requirements, the Seven Consecrators breathed a sigh of relief; this was normal. How could such a powerful secret technique have no cultivation requirements?
Subsequently, Zhou Heng allowed the Seven Consecrators to probe the Soul Core condensed within his body with their mental power, which finally made all the Seven Consecrators believe everything Zhou Heng had said.
After the Seven Consecrators discussed it, they decided that Qian Daoliu, who had the strongest strength, would attempt to condense a Soul Core, and then they would decide whether to include this secret technique in the Spirit Hall.
Hearing that Qian Daoliu was going to personally attempt to condense a Soul Core, Zhou Heng thought for a moment and said: "I have experience in condensing a Soul Core; I can help the Great Elder condense his Soul Core."
Qian Daoliu did not refuse this; after all, this secret technique was created by Zhou Heng, and with Zhou Heng's help, he would be safer when condensing his Soul Core.
Just like that, Qian Daoliu took Zhou Heng into seclusion; during this period, all matters of the Offering Hall were left to Crocodile Douluo to resolve.
As for the other Honorary Elders, they each went about their own business.
Qian Renxue, who was recuperating in the Offering Hall, went to the Spirit Hall's library to start searching for the origin of the divine power that had dealt with her this time.
Time passed like a white horse galloping past a crack; ten days later, a golden pillar of light shot up into the sky from Qian Daoliu's place of seclusion, reaching the heavens.
The next moment, the golden pillar of light disappeared, and a golden stream of light flew into the sky, heading north.
The various Honorary Elders in the Offering Hall felt these movements at the same time, then flew up together, following the trail of the golden stream of light, and flew north together.
Finally, the golden stream of light landed in a barren mountain; Qian Daoliu was seen grabbing Zhou Heng's clothes as they landed on the peak of the barren mountain.
Faint golden specks of light scattered from Qian Daoliu's body, revealing an incomparably sacred aura.
Not long after, the remaining Honorary Elders arrived on this barren mountain.
Crocodile Douluo felt the aura on Qian Daoliu's body and clearly sensed that Qian Daoliu's strength had received a huge boost.
Lion Douluo hurriedly spoke: "Boss, how do you feel now?"
Qian Daoliu laughed heartily: "Fourth brother, watch this!"
Qian Daoliu casually tossed Zhou Heng toward Crocodile Douluo, then activated his Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, performing the Angel Sword Technique one by one; countless golden sword auras shot out, and even space was sliced open by Qian Daoliu's attacks.
Finally, Qian Daoliu performed a horizontal slash toward the barren mountain; a hundred-meter-long sword aura flew out, slicing off the peak of the barren mountain, and the remaining power of the sword aura did not diminish, continuing to fly into the distance.
Watching Qian Daoliu's attack, the Honorary Elders, as old friends who had spent over a decade together, could naturally tell that Qian Daoliu's strength had clearly received a huge boost.
Qian Daoliu said to the Honorary Elders: "After condensing a Soul Core, not only can soul power be endless, but most importantly, the quality of soul power will be greatly improved, and mental power will also be enhanced.
My control over the soul power in my body can now be said to be as easy as moving my own arm."
