"Indeed, there are soul power circulation routes set in the spirit ring like soul guidance lamps, saving soul masters a lot of time. Otherwise, those dense circulation patterns would be impossible for soul masters to figure out."

Xiao Wu knew that there were soul power flow routes inside the spirit ring, but these routes were extremely complicated. Even the simplest waist bow soul skill had tens of thousands of soul power flow routes, involving many details of soul power flow. If it was left to humans to do it themselves——

If it was just imitating the movements, it would be possible to make a rough outline, but the more detailed things were not something that humans could handle. In fact, humans didn't have that many soul power circulation paths in their bodies.

However, just because it couldn't be done now didn't mean that it couldn't be done after becoming a Titled Douluo.

The spiritual power of Titled Douluo was very powerful!

"In other words, as long as the soul power circulation patterns inside the spirit ring are not very different, or rather, are consistent, then it's possible to fuse the rings?" Xiao Wu asked.

"Not necessarily."

Tang San shook his head, "If it was really that simple, wouldn't all soul masters who follow the extreme path be able to fuse rings? We also need to consider whether the spirit ring itself can withstand the energy after the fusion."

"Spirit rings produced by the same kind of soul beast have the same soul skills and the same soul power flow patterns inside. They may not be able to fuse. In fact, I think they will even repel each other."

Xiao Wu was puzzled, "Why? Spirit rings produced by the same kind of soul beast have the same soul skills. Why would they repel each other?"

"The book 'The Legend of Huo Yang' describes a case where a Soul King named Huo Yang was cultivating the fusion of rings. After the fusion of five spirit rings, they directly exploded. Huo Yang's body and bones were nowhere to be found in the impact of that energy."

Tang San told a case, "Huo Yang's martial soul was fire, a pure elemental martial soul. His five spirit rings all came from a soul beast called the Fire Bird. His soul skills were all about the sublimation of fire, a soul skill that could continuously purify the fire."

"This Huo Yang was a genius. He relied on his soul skills to continuously purify his own flames. Even though he didn't have any offensive soul skills, the temperature of his flames alone was enough to prevent Soul Sages from getting close."

"In order to pursue a higher temperature, he chose to cultivate the fusion of rings. He believed that his five spirit rings all came from the same kind of soul beast, and their soul skills were the same. He could definitely succeed in cultivating it."

"However, when he first started cultivating, he encountered trouble. He found that the attributes of the five spirit rings could fuse, but when they got close, there was a very serious repulsion. It was difficult to fuse them. Huo Yang only felt that his control was not enough, so he spent five years training his soul power control."

"Five years later, he succeeded. He could forcibly suppress the five spirit rings together with his soul power, but the repulsion became even greater. However, he saw that the five spirit rings were closer than last time, so he felt that he was on the right track. He then spent another five years training his soul power control, and then he made his final attempt——"

"It exploded with a bang."

Xiao Wu was speechless, "What kind of ghost story is this?"

Tang San said seriously, "This is not a ghost story, but a true case. When Huo Yang was cultivating, his family members recorded his situation. After Huo Yang failed, his family listed the fusion of rings as a forbidden technique and left a rule that future generations of descendants who cultivated the fusion of rings must have consistent spirit ring attributes. At the very least, they could not conflict, but they absolutely could not let spirit rings with the same soul skills fuse with each other."

"This is also why I speculate that the soul power flow patterns inside the spirit ring are the key to the success of the fusion of rings."

"It's like a puzzle. Only when the pieces are put in the right positions can there be no conflict and can they exist in the same space better, or even perfectly."

"A complete puzzle doesn't need two identical puzzle pieces."

"To use a more vivid metaphor, it's like magnets. Like poles repel each other, and opposite poles attract each other."

Xiao Wu understood. She gave an example, "So, in the future, when we choose soul skills, we must make sure that they can complement each other, right?"

"That's right. It's like my Blue Silver Grass. The first soul skill is Endless Life. Its essence is to root in the ground, absorb the energy of the earth, and transform it. The second soul skill is positive and negative Buff. Aside from the effect of the seeds, it can use the energy released by the first soul skill to absorb the power of the earth and convert it, and they can complement each other."

Tang San was happy that Xiao Wu was willing to think, "In this way, even if we can't successfully cultivate the fusion of rings, we can still make our soul skills complement each other and thus produce a stronger effect. There won't be a situation where each soul skill has a single function and there's no direct connection between them, or even a conflict."

"Every time we obtain a spirit ring, it's a strengthening of our martial soul. Similarly, if we consider it carefully, we can also make the puzzle of soul skills more complete."

"In my own case, if there are no other factors that can strengthen me in the future, then as long as my cultivation reaches the Soul Saint level, aside from my martial soul's true body, if the first six soul skills can be perfectly combined, then I have a more than ninety-five percent chance of fighting any Titled Douluo below level ninety-five and have a chance of winning."

Xiao Wu opened her mouth wide. She wanted to say that Tang San was joking, but she recalled that Tang San's first soul skill, Endless Life, could continuously absorb the power of the earth to replenish himself, and his second soul skill, positive and negative buff, could weaken the enemy. Although he was afraid of the wind, he had an endless grassland to provide him with energy, so he could also release it continuously.

Coupled with the fact that Tang San had created his own soul skills, was now practicing his control over his soul power, and had a way to increase his physical strength.

Xiao Wu felt that it didn't seem to be a problem for a Soul Sage to fight a Titled Douluo. She even felt that Tang San could compete with a Titled Douluo when he reached the Soul Emperor level.

This was really···

Spicy!

Xiao Wu felt that if she followed Tang San's arrangements, she might be able to rival a Title Douluo when she reached the Soul Sage level. At that time, she would definitely teach Di Tian and the other savage beasts a lesson and let them know who the real big sister of the Star Dou Great Forest was!

Hehehe!

Beast God Di Tian?

I'll make you call me Sister Xiao Wu in the future!

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you thinking about? Your saliva is flowing out."

Tang San woke Xiao Wu from her dream with a disdainful look, handing her a handkerchief. "Wipe it off, then go practice climbing trees."

"Got it, you're so naggy." Xiao Wu made a face and walked to the jujube tree that had been trampled on. She started her noisy practice again.

Now, she no longer needed to use running as momentum like she did at the beginning. She could walk upright directly, and she had made great progress. However, she would still fall down.

Tang San touched Guang Ling's head and said, "When you reach level ten and obtain your first spirit ring, you also need to do this kind of training. Your soul power is too weak now."

"Yes, I'll listen to Brother's arrangements." Guang Ling nodded vigorously. Although she had been accepted as a student by Tang San, she didn't want to call him teacher. She preferred to call him brother.

Tang San didn't care about this. He just thought that he was very charming——
