Xiao Zhan was also uncertain whether he could successfully break through. Although Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower gave him a strange feeling, as if it could cause him to undergo evolution, his breakthrough required the condensation of the Spirit Core. Once unsuccessful, the backlash would be light, he could still recuperate, but if the backlash was quite severe, his meridians might burst and he could die.
Therefore, before the final breakthrough, he called his daughter to introduce her to Su Wen.
Listening to Xiao Zhan's words, which sounded like he was arranging his affairs, Su Wen was speechless for a moment.
"Uncle Zhan, as long as you don't change the framework of the Soul Power Circulation Route I gave you, your life will be fine."
Su Wen's framework developed initially was primarily for life preservation. Even if the condensation failed, it wouldn't directly lead to loss of life. As long as he was alive and had the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, even if his meridians burst, Su Wen could rescue him.
After Xiao Zhan gave a few more reminders, he began his closed-door cultivation. Su Wen accompanied Xiao Huo, waiting for Xiao Zhan's results.
"Sister Huo'er, what's your Martial Spirit?" Su Wen asked curiously.
Xiao Huo didn't conceal it and directly summoned a bluish-green lotus formed by converging green flames.
"Compared to the Jade Fire Cyan Lotus, I prefer others to call my Martial Spirit the Cyan Lotus Jade Fire," she replied.
Su Wen looked at the bluish-green flames forming the lotus shape, feeling intrigued. These flames actually carried a hint of vitality.
"Sister Huo'er, is your fire of the auxiliary type?" he asked in surprise.
"Attack type," Xiao Huo replied.
"Although my flames carry a hint of vitality, it's very faint. Compared to healing others, using this vitality to heal myself has a more astonishing effect. My Spirit Skill also greatly amplifies my own outbreaks, partly because while I'm bursting, this vitality is also healing the injuries caused by the outbreak."
Su Wen pondered.
He hadn't expected such a unique Martial Spirit. However, this should be a mutated Martial Spirit.
After some conversation with Xiao Huo, Su Wen immersed himself in his research. His current tasks were still quite heavy. While Xiao Zhan was in closed-door cultivation for his final breakthrough, Su Wen couldn't go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Instead, he invested a considerable amount of energy into his research.
"I'm still lacking something."
Despite having gained a lot through the power of knowledge conversion, making him invincible at the same level, Su Wen couldn't help but feel unsatisfied.
Because what makes him invincible at the same level is more the Fire Demon Style layered with the Fiery Heavenly Sun.
At his current level forty-nine, Su Wen can challenge Spirit Kings beyond his level, but defeating those who are among the best among Spirit Kings is undoubtedly impossible.
"Could this be the gap in Martial Spirits?"
Books ultimately don't provide any enhancement in battle.
Su Wen's current approach is to create Spirit Skills based on his own knowledge, achieving effects even surpassing those of other Spirit Masters with Martial Spirit-enhanced Spirit Skills. This is already a remarkable achievement.
"The enhancement from the Martial Spirit." Su Wen knew that this was what he lacked now.
The composition of combat power is very complex, with enhancements from the Martial Spirit itself, the power effects of Spirit Skills, and the support of Auxiliary Spirit Masters, all of which can be mutually reinforced.
At present, Su Wen relies solely on the power effects of Spirit Skills to catch up with other geniuses who possess top attack Martial Spirits.
If he could solve the issue of Martial Spirit enhancement, he could narrow the gap with other battle Spirit Masters in this aspect, and his overall combat power would also be higher.
"Furthermore, the support of auxiliary types, I can achieve that on my own." This is implicit because nowadays Su Wen fights with Ning Rongrong, so there's actually no difference between him fighting alone.
"The most important thing is still the Ring Replacement Method." Su Wen returned to the main topic.
As long as the foundation is strong enough and absurd enough, Su Wen believed that even with the self-created Spirit Skills he currently mastered, he would still have an advantage even after becoming a Titled Douluo.
First, he studied the Ring Explosion Secret Technique.
Half a month later.
The fluctuations of Soul Power in the room finally became calm.
Although the fluctuations were no longer intense, the intensity of this fluctuation was indeed breathtaking, and Su Wen had only experienced this feeling from Titled Douluo.
This also means that Xiao Zhan's current Soul Power fluctuations have reached the level of a Titled Douluo, indicating the successful condensation of his Solid Soul Power.
Before long, Xiao Zhan appeared in front of Su Wen and Xiao Huo.
"Congratulations, Dad."
"Congratulations, Uncle Zhan."
Xiao Zhan's face was filled with smiles, unable to contain his excitement.
He had broken through!
He finally broke through this bottleneck. Due to his initial attempts, his Soul Power was nearing solidification at level seventy-nine, facing a bottleneck as difficult as breaking through to become a Titled Douluo, making it hard to know where to start.
Now, with the help of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and the Spirit Core Method, he had finally succeeded.
The effect of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower was astonishing, transforming Xiao Zhan's Fire Demon Book had been transformed into a Flaming Demon Book completely.
"I feel like my Soul Power will be more than level eighty-one after absorbing the Spirit Rings."
After reaching Spirit Saint, even if you absorb Spirit Rings at your current limit, it's basically impossible to directly increase a Spirit Master's Soul Power by two levels.
Xiao Zhan's implication now is that the efficacy of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower didn't just increase his level by one.
Of course, part of this is due to the rebound caused by his long suppression and the breakthrough, triggering a chain reaction with the help of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower's medicinal power, which allowed him to absorb a large amount of heaven and earth energy, greatly increasing his Soul Power.
"Uncle Zhan, when will you acquire your eighth Spirit Ring?" Su Wen asked.
Breaking through to Spirit Douluo and absorbing the eighth ring, Xiao Zhan's strength would likely reach a higher level. With his potential, he could be considered among the top experts at the level of Spirit Douluo.
"The eighth ring." Xiao Zhan took a deep breath, also contemplating the acquisition of the eighth Spirit Ring.
"If you're not in a hurry, Uncle Zhan, then just wait a bit. After all, I'm about to break through too. When the time comes to acquire the Spirit Ring, Poison Douluo and a Titled Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will help me. Uncle Zhan, you can join us then."
Grabbing some benefits.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan felt like his mind was in chaos after his breakthrough.
Hold on, what do you mean you're about to break through?
"Kid, didn't you just get your Fourth Spirit Ring about half a year ago?" Xiao Zhan widened his eyes, looking at Su Wen and asked.
Don't tell me that while I was breaking through, you've broken through twice?
And, why is your treatment so outrageous?
Xiao Zhan felt bitter in his heart. Just now, when he was contemplating who to invite for obtaining the eighth Spirit Ring, he realized that the lineup he could come up with was far inferior to Su Wen's. He could only think of Huo Tianyang and his own wife. At most, he could expose the fact of his breakthrough and invite one of the three from the board of education to help.
Can three Spirit Douluo compare to Su Wen's two Titled Douluo?
Forget about Poison Douluo, any one of the two Titled Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is at least above level ninety-five!
Xiao Zhan's head was buzzing.
At the same time, Xiao Huo's head also began to buzz.
