Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 985 Phoenix Yang Fire and Phoenix Yin Fire

After Ouyang Sun left, Yu Xiaogang also turned and left, intending to find Dai Mubai later and have a good talk with him about the situation of the Evil Eye Saint King.

"Teacher Zhou."

Flander stayed behind and called out to Zhou Qing, who was about to transform into a spirit sphere and return to his original form, "I have a request."

"As for Ma Hongjun? You don't need to worry about that. Although Dai Mubai's team chose 'team', it's not that I won't guide them in their individual cultivation. As long as Ma Hongjun has the will and is willing to persevere, then returning to normal is only a matter of time."

With Zhou Qing's assurance, Flander felt relieved, but still stepped forward and asked somewhat nervously, "May I know the specific treatment plan first?"

Zhou Qing smiled: "No need to be so nervous, it's only right that I tell you."

After all, Ma Hongjun was Flander's disciple and was raised by him like a son. As a teacher, it was only natural for him to care about his disciple.

"As I've mentioned before, Ma Hongjun's case involves a mutated martial soul with an inherent evil fire that possesses mental attributes, affecting his own spirit. He is a typical example of a martial soul controlling a person."

Zhou Qing said, "The solution is actually quite simple: balance the two 'gears' between the human body and the martial soul. The key lies in his own active control over the evil fire."

His three main soul skills are: Flame Ascension, which increases fire attribute energy by 50%; Fiery Phoenix, which forms a vortex of flames with evil fire and releases area-of-effect explosive damage; and the third soul skill, Wind and Fire Nirvana, which increases fire attribute energy by another 50%, transforming purple fire into black flames and forming the shape of a phoenix.

Tsk tsk.

"Are there any problems with these three soul skills?" Flander asked nervously.

“If Ma Hongjun’s martial soul is a natural phoenix, then these three soul rings will naturally be no problem, and may even help him become a Soul Master with extremely strong combat power,” Zhou Qing said. “Yu Xiaogang must have suggested this to you, right?”

“Yes, he… he is also a theoretical master of martial spirit cultivation.” Flander paused for a moment before continuing.

"Yes, that's true."

Zhou Qing did not deny it, "Ma Hongjun's choice of these three soul skills should be based on Dai Mubai's situation. Both of them have top-tier beast martial souls, and the first soul skill is an amplification type, an attack type, and an enhancement type. Just from the point of view of the enhancement of soul rings to the strength of soul masters, choosing an enhancement type for the first soul skill is the most cost-effective."

However, because Ma Hongjun possesses the Evil Flame, amplification-type soul skills actually increase the difficulty for him to control the Evil Flame independently.

In particular, he now has two skills that amplify flames, and the amplification effect is 50% each, which can be stacked to double the power.

Admittedly, this made the destructive power terrifying, but after using his third soul skill, the purple flames turned black, becoming even more violent and chilling. How could he, at only twelve years old, possibly control it?

Flander's heart tightened, and he asked, "What should we do then?"

“Since I’ve mentioned the effects of his soul skill, I will naturally help him solve this problem from the perspective of his soul skill.” Zhou Qing gestured for him to calm down. “His third soul skill, Wind and Fire Nirvana, is also an amplification-type soul skill that can increase the fire attribute by fifty percent, but its external manifestation is that it forms a phoenix made of black flames.”

Therefore, the so-called fire attribute enhancement effect should only be superficial. Its real effect should be the activation of a part of his Phoenix bloodline in his martial soul.

Unfortunately, if the problem of the evil fire is not resolved, the faster this bloodline originating from the martial soul is activated and the more the evil fire energy accumulates, the greater the possibility of him falling into depravity.

The solution I devised for him was to use his third soul skill to truly guide out that portion of the phoenix bloodline, forming another flame to achieve balance with the evil fire.

Flanders asked, "Is that the real Phoenix Fire?" "Evil fire is also Phoenix Fire."

Zhou Qing said, “The phoenix is ​​divided into male and female. In terms of attributes, the evil fire is yin and soft, with strong corrosiveness and adhesion, and has spiritual attributes. It should be called the Phoenix Yin Fire, while the Phoenix Yang Fire is extremely strong and yang, and is blazing and brilliant.”

Once the Phoenix Yang Fire within Ma Hongjun's martial soul is drawn out and balanced with his own Phoenix Yin Fire, his problem can be solved.

After that, he activated his second soul skill, Fiery Phoenix—although it is an area-of-effect attack skill, the attack form is to create a vortex of fire.

The attack is the surface; what Ma Hongjun needs to control is the form of the 'vortex' so that the Phoenix Yang Fire and the Phoenix Yin Fire can achieve a balance in the rotation.

Finally, he used his first soul skill, "Flames Rise." Soul skills that amplify elemental energy generally work by increasing the purity of that energy. Therefore, using this skill to purify the two flames would accelerate his process of mastering the Phoenix Yang Fire and the Phoenix Yin Fire.

Flanders was immediately thrilled.

According to the treatment method given by Zhou Qing, Ma Hongjun can not only resolve his mental stress, but also control the evil fire and the phoenix fire at the same time. No, it should be the phoenix yang fire and the phoenix yin fire.

Does that mean Ma Hongjun will become even more powerful?

As expected of Zhou Qing!
However, Zhou Qing only stated the theoretical situation. To truly master the Phoenix Yang Fire and the Phoenix Yin Fire, Ma Hongjun needed to first fill in the theoretical knowledge of the human body's meridian circulation, and this was the most basic of all.

Otherwise, even if he helped guide the Phoenix Yang Fire out, it would at most spare Ma Hongjun from the torment of the Phoenix Yin Fire. However, having both the Phoenix Yang Fire and the Phoenix Yin Fire simultaneously would significantly improve Ma Hongjun's control over flames. If he were humble and eager to learn in the future, he might very well be able to truly join the Crimson Society...
···
Reassured, Flander watched Zhou Qing transform into a blood-red spiritual sphere and disappear into the sky before heading to find Shao Xin, ready to explore the Holy Soul Village thoroughly.

This was their first time visiting Holy Soul Village—the houses and buildings were smaller than those in Nottingham City, but the interior furnishings were no less impressive.

The streets were bustling with people, and the roads were well-connected. Moreover, according to the locals, the area of ​​Holy Soul Village was dozens of times larger than before, making it a city that was booming!

Moreover, in the western region where Tiandou and Xingluo meet, villages, towns, and small cities along the way all have dealings with the Chihui, and some have even established branches of the Chihui.

Convenient transportation! Thriving economy! Friendly residents!
More importantly, in other regions of the Heavenly Dou Empire, Flander had never seen villagers in the countryside with such a good mental state.

“Holy Soul Village, and the surrounding villages, must be the happiest place on the entire continent.” Flander walked up a nearby hillside, watching the children chasing each other on the terraced fields, and couldn’t help but ponder a question, “What would it be like if I were born here?”

Then, Flander thought of one of the Red Society's philosophies—that the elders work hard so that the younger generation won't have to suffer.

He had only been somewhat moved by these words before, thinking that Chi was too naive. But now, he understood that Zhou Qing and the others truly wanted to change the situation created by the two great empires and the Spirit Hall!
Maybe I should take a gamble!

Flander wasn't particularly fond of nobles either; otherwise, with his abilities, he could have easily found a prestigious academy to retire at, or become a retainer of a nobleman. Wouldn't that have been more carefree than starting his own Shrek Academy?

However, in the process of establishing the academy, he was forced by various realities to select the best students and gradually move towards elite education.

And now-

The Red Society had already shown him another path...
