Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 631 Dai Chengfeng's Astonishing Discovery
This discovery shocked Dai Chengfeng.

He slowly raised his head, ending the kiss, but his body remained pressed against hers, not immediately releasing his hold on her.

But Dai Chengfeng's gaze no longer held the previous mockery; instead, it was filled with focus.

Zhu Zhuqing was finally able to breathe, panting heavily: "Aren't you getting up?"

"do not move."

Dai Chengfeng interrupted her, his voice low and serious.

Zhu Zhuqing was taken aback, somewhat bewildered by his sudden seriousness.

"What trick are you planning to pull now?"

"Feel it."

Dai Chengfeng did not explain, but instead loosened the pressure on her wrist slightly, but did not completely let go.

His thumb was still pressed against the center of her wrist, but it was no longer an ambiguous caress; instead, it carried a guiding meaning.

"Calm down and feel the flow of your soul power, especially in the areas where we are in contact."

Zhu Zhuqing didn't want to listen to him, but Dai Chengfeng's unusually serious expression made her hesitate.

She bit her lower lip, still feeling ashamed and indignant, but still closed her eyes as instructed, trying to calm herself down and perceive the situation.

At first, she could only feel the shame of their bodies being pressed so close together, and the discomfort of his restraint on her wrists and other parts of her body.

But gradually, as she truly calmed down, she realized—

The soul power that was flowing smoothly within her body was now uncontrollably flowing in several directions:
The place where her wrist was held, the arm pressed down below her collarbone, and the lips that he had just kissed.

From these points of contact, a scorching, domineering yet not repulsive soul force was slowly flowing in, merging and fusing with her soul force, and then carrying a portion of her soul force back into the other party's body.

This process formed a wonderful cycle. With each cycle, she felt as if her soul power had been tempered by the scorching soul power, becoming more solid and active.

And within that foreign soul power lay a certain extremely sharp and superior aura.

It must be the "Asura Divine Power" that Dai Chengfeng once mentioned—it didn't violently reject her as he said, but instead gradually became gentler as it came into contact with her soul power.

No, it's not gentleness, it's a kind of "acceptance"?
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly opened her eyes, looking at Dai Chengfeng with surprise and uncertainty:
"This is.?"

"Soul Power Resonance".

Dai Chengfeng chimed in, his eyes shining with an astonishing light, “No, it’s deeper than resonance. It’s attraction, a spontaneous tendency to merge.”

Dai Chengfeng finally released his grip on Zhu Zhuqing completely. Zhu Zhuqing immediately sat up, but her wrist was still held by Dai Chengfeng.

"Feel it carefully, Zhu Qing. This is very important."

Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously, "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"We've always wanted to try a spirit fusion technique..."

Dai Chengfeng stared into Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, "But there has always been a barrier between us—the Asura God Power within me."

"It is too domineering, rejecting all external forces, including your soul power."

“Every time I try to guide it to come into contact with your soul power, it causes a violent conflict, making it impossible to complete the fusion.”

Zhu Zhuqing certainly remembered.

A few months ago, when Dai Chengfeng first proposed trying a spirit fusion technique, the two briefly tried it.

As a result, the moment her soul power came into contact with the strange dark red power within his body, it was violently repelled. She even suffered a minor injury and felt tightness in her chest for several days.

Since then, Dai Chengfeng has never mentioned it again, focusing instead on his control over that power.

"But now..."

Dai Chengfeng raised their clasped hands. "Look." "Our soul power is spontaneously exchanging and circulating. The Asura God Power is not rejecting you; on the contrary, it is adapting to your soul power attributes."

Dai Chengfeng paused, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes: "I have a guess..."

"Perhaps it's not about making my divine power adapt to your soul power, but rather the other way around, allowing your soul power, and yourself, to gradually adapt to the existence and characteristics of the Asura divine power."

"When your body and soul power reduce their resistance to it to a minimum, and can even withstand some of the characteristics of divine power, the fusion of martial souls may naturally follow."

Zhu Zhuqing understood and was shocked: "You mean you want me to get used to divine power?"

"But that's god-level power. I'm not even a Soul King, how could I possibly—"

"It's not about making you bear all the divine power right now."

Dai Chengfeng interrupted her, "It's about gradually adapting."

"Just like now, through the natural flow of soul power, a trace of divine power's aura and characteristics slowly integrate into your soul power cycle, subtly changing the nature of your soul power and gradually making it 'compatible' with divine power."

He became more and more excited as he spoke, his previous frivolous playfulness completely replaced by this new discovery: "And..."

"If we can complete this two-way adaptation process, the final Martial Soul Fusion Skill will likely not be a simple addition of power, but a true qualitative change!"

"My domineering power and the killing nature of an Asura, combined with your extreme speed and Netherworld penetration, and further amplified by divine power..."

"Zhu Qing, just imagine what kind of power that would be!"

Zhu Zhuqing's heart raced as Dai Chengfeng spoke.

As a proud Soul Master, her thirst for power is second to none.

If she could complete the Martial Soul Fusion with Dai Chengfeng and possess even greater power, she would certainly be more than willing to do so.

but……

She looked down at their clasped hands.

"But..." Zhu Zhuqing bit her lower lip, her voice lowering, "How am I supposed to get used to it? Do we have to... keep this kind of contact going on forever?"

A smile appeared on Dai Chengfeng's lips.

"I'm afraid so."

"Deep communication and adaptation of soul power require physical contact as a medium."

"The effects might be weaker on the hands, wrists, and arms. To speed up the process, we might need to make contact over a larger area, or at key points in the flow of soul power, such as... the core area of ​​soul power on the back, or..."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over her lips before quickly shifting away: "In short, this is a process that requires time and intimacy."

Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed again, this time not only with embarrassment but also with a hint of annoyance:
"So you treated me like that just now, just for this?"

"of course not."

Dai Chengfeng immediately denied it, "I really... couldn't help it just now."

His straightforward admission left Zhu Zhuqing unsure how to react.

"But this is an unexpected discovery, and it could be a crucial one, Zhuqing. I need you to consider it carefully."

He released her hand and stepped back a little. "This will not only give us the opportunity to achieve Martial Soul Fusion, but it will also benefit your own cultivation."

"Even a trace of Asura's divine power is a form of tempering for your soul power."

“I can feel that during that brief exchange just now, the solidity of your soul power slightly improved.”

"In the long run, it will help your cultivation speed and the quality of your soul power."

“Of course,” he said, his expression turning serious, “there could be risks involved.”
