Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Under the blazing sun, a figure streaked across the sky above the mountain range where the Elemental Holy Academy was located, before landing atop a secondary peak.

With the advent of the "Gathering Ring Technique," Mu Yang planned to use the method of gathering a soul ring for his Ice Flame Sacred Shadow Martial Soul to push his own soul power level to 90, a quasi-titled Douluo, and then use a divinely bestowed soul ring to advance to a nine-ring titled Douluo, thus cultivating the Ice and Fire Immortal Jade Ginseng Martial Soul to its peak.

In this way, his soul power level will surge again in a short period of time.

As soul power levels surge, the ability to control soul power will inevitably decline, making it much more difficult to condense a second soul core.

Therefore, Mu Yang planned to condense his second soul core before he could condense his own soul ring.

Although in later generations, a protagonist who started with a million-year soul ring only condensed his second soul core when he advanced to the title level.

However, Mu Yang's foundation is not bad either, and his current soul power of level 84 is not too low. In addition, he has a way to protect himself, so he is not without the ability to condense a second soul core.

Unlike the first soul core, the second soul core has two different condensation methods, and the resulting soul cores are not as strong.

One is the isotopic resonant soul core, and the other is the yin-yang complementary soul core.

The concept of a soul core is to compare it to the center of a circle. The idea of ​​a dual soul core with co-positional resonance is to turn one center into two, forming a larger circle, which makes the soul core more effective in purifying the soul power of the soul master.

The concept of Yin-Yang complementary dual soul cores is to condense a second soul core that operates in the opposite direction to the first soul core.

When the two soul cores operate in opposite directions, their powers collide and merge, causing the soul master's soul power to recombine, be purified, condense, and sublimate, thus giving the soul power the characteristics of both soul cores.

Once a Yin-Yang complementary soul core is formed, its effect on purifying soul power will be stronger than that of a soul core with identical resonance. Moreover, the newly formed soul power will not only become vortex-shaped, but also possess extremely strong destructive power.

From the perspective of effects alone, the efficacy of the Yin-Yang complementary soul core is far superior to that of the isotopic resonance soul core.

Of course, while the Yin-Yang complementary soul core is effective, the difficulty of condensing it is also far greater than that of the same-position resonance soul core.

If Mu Yang had no effective way to save his life, he might not have used the extremely dangerous Yin-Yang complementation method to condense his second soul core.

After all, he has already passed the Asura God Test, and his ascension to the position of Supreme God King is just around the corner. Even if he does not have a soul core in his body, it will not affect the strength of the Supreme God King standing at the top of the universe. The risks and rewards are seriously disproportionate.

However, if he could obtain something better and be absolutely certain that he wouldn't fail in the process of condensing the Yin-Yang complementary soul core, Mu Yang would naturally pursue the most effective Yin-Yang complementary soul core.

Sitting cross-legged on a giant rock atop the mountain, Mu Yang concentrated and prepared to begin condensing his second soul core, which complemented Yin and Yang.

The human body has three major acupoints that can accommodate a soul ring: the upper dantian between the eyebrows, the middle dantian in the chest, and the lower dantian in the abdomen.

Currently, the Ice Flame Soul Core has occupied the lower dantian, leaving only the middle and upper dantian as acupoints to accommodate the second soul core.

However, although it is said that he can choose one of the two, in reality there is no other choice. Mu Yang can only condense the second soul core of Yin-Yang complementarity in his middle dantian.

After all, the middle dantian is located between the lower and middle dantians. If he chooses to condense the second yin-yang complementary soul core in the upper dantian now, then once the yin-yang complementary soul cores are formed, under the influence of the power of the two soul cores operating in opposite directions, the middle dantian, located in the middle dantian, will basically have no chance to condense the third soul core.

Therefore, whenever a Soul Master wants to condense three Soul Cores, regardless of whether it is a resonance in the same position or a yin-yang complement, the position where the second Soul Core is condensed can only be adjacent to the first Soul Core.

Either the first soul core is in the lower dantian, the second in the middle dantian, and the third in the upper dantian.

Either the first soul core is in the upper dantian, the second soul core is in the middle dantian, and the third soul core is in the lower dantian.

Alternatively, you could use the middle dantian as the first soul core and the upper or lower dantian as the second or third soul core.

The attributes of a soul core are not limited to its own soul power attribute, and even if multiple soul cores with the same attribute are condensed, the effect of a Yin-Yang complementary soul core, which can simultaneously possess the characteristics of multiple soul cores, cannot be brought into play.

Having acquired the Ice Flame Soul Core with the Ice Flame attribute, Mu Yang naturally wouldn't condense a second Soul Core with the same Ice Flame attribute, which complements Yin and Yang, in his middle dantian. Instead, he would prepare to condense a second Soul Core with the Qi and Blood attribute.

To be precise, the second soul core that Mu Yang wanted to condense was a solar soul core formed by combining the powerful blood and qi he possessed after cultivating the "Sun Body Refinement" with the fire attribute soul power split from the ice flame soul power.

However, before condensing the Sun Soul Core, Mu Yang needs to try to deplete the soul power of the Ice Flame Soul Core in his lower dantian to reduce the strong interference from the existing Ice Flame Soul Core when condensing the Sun Soul Core.

A flash of icy blue light appeared, and the Ice and Fire Immortal Jade Ginseng Martial Soul materialized before him.

After consuming a Purple Jade Profound Yellow Ginseng, Mu Yang released his spiritual power, severing the connection between the Ice Flame Soul Core in his lower dantian and the outside world. Immediately, his first and second soul rings flashed frequently. Relying on the characteristic of the Purple Jade Profound Yellow Ginseng that its martial soul true body grants no cooldown for soul skills below the seventh ring, he quickly consumed the soul power contained within the Ice Flame Soul Core, producing a large quantity of Crimson Jade Soul-Returning Ginseng and Orange Jade Blood-Replenishing Ginseng.

Consuming the Crimson Jade Soul-Returning Ginseng during the condensation of the Sun Soul Core ensures that mental energy is fully restored, while also rapidly restoring Ice Flame Soul Power, which is then broken down into fire-attribute soul power to supply the condensation of the Sun Soul Core.

The Orange Jade Blood-Nourishing Ginseng can heal injuries, restore physical strength, and supply the large amount of blood and energy required to condense the Sun Soul Core.

These two types of soul-power ginseng, along with the several silver jade immortal ginsengs stored in the soul guide storage bracelet that can be preserved indefinitely, gave Mu Yang complete confidence in condensing a yin-yang complementary solar soul core.

Even if he fails the first time, he can use his Soul Bone Skill: Invincible Golden Body to save his life for three seconds. During these three seconds, he can take the Silver Jade Undying Ginseng. Even if his Soul Core explodes inside his body, Mu Yang will not lose his life.

Mu Yang may seem carefree, but when it comes to protecting his life, he's a professional and would never joke around with it.

Whether it's Earth in the past or the Douluo Universe, energy is conserved. The reason why the soul core can quickly and automatically recover soul power is because this recovered soul power is transformed from the external spiritual energy absorbed by the soul core.

Currently, Mu Yang has used his mental power to isolate the Ice Flame Soul Core from the outside world. The immense power contained within it has become like water without roots. With the large-scale production of Crimson Jade Soul-Returning Ginseng and Orange Jade Blood-Replenishing Ginseng, the soul power contained within the Ice Flame Soul Core has begun to be rapidly consumed.

As a large amount of soul power was extracted, the Ice Flame Soul Core gradually became more violent. However, before it could cause any significant disturbance, it stabilized again under Mu Yang's control. (End of Chapter)
