"Is this really the Inner Courtyard of Shrek?" Xiao Hongchen was also in a state of amazement at this moment.
No wonder the Soul Masters cultivated by the Shrek Academy in the past have a higher level compared to those Soul Guides who joined Mingde Hall and frequently used precious herbal medicines to accelerate their cultivation.
Not to mention the Inner Courtyard, just when Xiao Hongchen passed by the Outer Courtyard, he felt that the whole Shrek Academy's concentration of Primordial Energy was comparable to the exclusive cultivation rooms of Mingde Hall.
The role of the Soul-guiding Device is quite extensive, among which are Soul-guiding Arrays related to gathering Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and naturally, Mingde Hall is inscribed with such an Array.
However, even though Mingde Hall is inscribed with such an array, it cannot compare to the primordial energy naturally gathered by the Golden Ancient Tree.
Or rather, it's not just the primordial energy gathered by the Golden Ancient Tree, but also because this place is located at the very center of the entire Douluo Continent, making it a natural place for the aggregation of primordial energy, which is further condensed by the Golden Ancient Tree, creating an environment extremely fitting for Soul Masters' cultivation within Shrek.
Moreover, not only is Shrek's primordial energy denser, but it is also easier for Soul Masters to achieve insight.
Xiao Hongchen already felt the Soul Power within him starting to stir.
He felt that this time his cultivation could see obvious progress!
Dream Hongchen was also sensing the aura emitted by the Golden Ancient Tree with closed eyes and feeling the surrounding concentration of primordial energy, with joy in her heart.
Her Martial Soul inherently had flaws, as with the increase of Soul Power Level, she would be eroded by the toxin within.
However, Su Yu selected a Ninth Grade Dragon Ginseng for her, which is an Immortal Grass nurtured by absorbing the energy of ultimate ice and fire attributes. After consumption, it has a pure attribute effect for Soul Masters with water and fire attributes, and for possessors of Beast Martial Souls, the contained Dragon Qi can even promote the evolution of their Martial Soul.
Under the transformation by the Ninth Grade Dragon Ginseng, Dream Hongchen's Martial Soul underwent an evolution.
The Poison Attribute still exists but became a means inherent to her after the evolution.
In a literal sense.
The Poison Attribute is produced by her Martial Soul's unique ability, not the inherent poison of the Martial Soul itself.
In actuality, the toxin of the Vermilion-eyed Ice Toad is the ice poison nurtured from the powerful Ice Attribute, further contaminated with fire poison by the refinement of the potent Fire Attribute.
Essentially speaking, this is a feature of the Vermilion-eyed Ice Toad itself, rather than an attribute.
The poison carried within is also an ancillary product under the unique structure of its own Ice and Fire Attributes.
After consuming the Ninth Grade Dragon Ginseng, Dream Hongchen's Martial Soul is close to the ultimate level in both Ice and Fire Attributes.
It did not reach the actual extreme, which is a pity, but this is because the efficacy of the Ninth Grade Dragon Ginseng enhances her control over the two attributes rather more than achieving their extremes.
Currently, as long as Dream Hongchen does not actively use Soul Power to generate Ice and Fire Poison, her Martial Soul remains non-toxic.
Because of this, the flaw in Dream Hongchen's Martial Soul was also resolved.
Furthermore, the two attributes, close to extreme state, are inherently opposing. Under her control, whether it is generating Ice and Fire Poison or causing elemental collision to produce stronger attacks, both are not inferior to genuine extreme attributes.
At this moment, closely feeling the aura of the Golden Ancient Tree, Dream Hongchen felt she touched a certain bottleneck.
As long as she enters the Sea God Pavilion to cultivate for some time, she will gain unprecedented opportunities.
...
From afar, Su Yu already felt a rich presence of rules enveloping the Golden Ancient Tree.
Even he can't actually feel the power of the rules right now, but through the existence of Life and Death Rune, he can sense the fluctuations of the Life and Death Rule, borrowing transformations to further perceive other rules' fluctuations.
"Truly a Golden Ancient Tree!" Su Yu sighed with admiration.
The claim of being the Plane Core was not false at all.
This Golden Ancient Tree must be the true core of the entire Plane.
Looking at the group, who were genuinely amazed without pretense, Elder Xuan and other Sea God Pavilion elders also showed proud expressions.
"This is our Shrek's Sea God Pavilion!"
Su Yu paid no attention to the expressions of these elders, and with them, flew across the Sea God Lake, entering the Sea God Pavilion.
"This Ninth-Level Soul Guide, your honor, please halt." Elder Song stopped Xuan Ziweng, saying calmly.
According to the agreement, Mingde Hall could send five people into the Sea God Pavilion for one-time cultivation.
Xuan Ziweng, strictly speaking, was only here to escort the five.
Following all the way to the front of the Sea God Pavilion door was already the limit.
Xuan Ziweng did not insist, nor was he vexed, stopping in his tracks, watching Su Yu and the others enter the Sea God Pavilion.
Inside the Sea God Pavilion.
Su Yu felt an unprecedented comfort.
The entire Sea God Pavilion was filled with dense primordial energy that nourished his body, as if refining it.
"I wonder if it enhances qualification?" Su Yu thought.
However, he was not very concerned with this effect.
After all, even if there is a possibility to enhance qualifications, it would not happen quickly, and the total enhancement would not be too high, beneficial only to a small degree for him.
Su Yu focused more on the rule fluctuations surrounding him.
This kind of fluctuation!
Su Yu has a heaven-defying comprehension, which stems from his soul being inherently close to rules, making insight and cultivation easier, often leading him into epiphany.
The greatest utility of comprehension for him was also reflected in the Rune System he created, which enabled him to almost delineate rules in a visualized form using runes.
Now, entering the Golden Ancient Tree, Su Yu felt this kind of rule fluctuation, allowing him to easily find a breakthrough when contemplating issues encountered in cultivation.
The Soul Power within him was already stirring, as if it was about to imprint and engrave marks internally, thus enhancing further.
However, the breakthrough of Soul Power was not of significant necessity to him at present; the two major challenges ahead were the condensation of the Second Soul Core and the choice of the Ninth Soul Ring.
"First connect with the Plane Will; if it goes smoothly, the Ninth Soul Ring should not be a problem. As for the condensation of the Second Soul Core, it still depends on the Virtual Soul Core Technology."
The Virtual Soul Core was a theory Su Yu proposed to Kong Deming before the Soul Fighting Competition, which adds richness to the Armor System.
If this technology succeeds, a Soul Master's Soul Core would no longer be limited to at most three within the body; the Soul Core could also be simulated within the Battle Armor, creating resonance with the Soul Master's internal Soul Core, thereby enhancing the Soul Master's power.
At that time, the main purpose of proposing such a technology was to facilitate the condensation of the Second and Third Soul Cores, not merely to enhance the Battle Armor's reinforcement of the Soul Master.
"Teacher has already developed the technology to a bottleneck; with insights within the Golden Ancient Tree, I wonder if I can completely perfect it."
Su Yu hesitated only momentarily, then regained his composure.
"With my talent, it's more than enough!"
