Douluo: Not enough blood? Use your brain

He was simply conscious within the Soul Stove, the only difference being that his Soul Stove's ability was his original ability; this was inherently his power.

"Your situation is essentially this," Xu Zhi affirmed Xu Yuan's thoughts. "Perhaps your body cannot fuse with a Soul Stove, but you can consider starting directly from the essence, using my method of integrating your will into the Soul Stove, rather than slowly immersing your will after your body fuses with it."

Different stages allow for different approaches.

Xu Zhi himself had cultivated step by step from weakness to strength, so he could only proceed gradually.

However, Xu Yuan was different. His current strength was already sufficient to allow him to DIY according to his needs.

"However, a Soul Stove ultimately needs a carrier, so you can use essence, qi, and spirit as carriers, integrating your will into three Soul Stoves. Eventually, the three Soul Stoves will return to the main body, making it easier to complete the fusion with the help of your current body."

Xu Yuan nodded in agreement.

It sounded very reasonable.

Although no one had ever tried this approach, once the theory was established, it could be tested in practice.

He was already a Soul Stove himself, and since he was composed of consciousness, it would be easier to perform the operation of integrating into a Soul Stove.

"The current problem is choosing what kind of three Soul Stoves," Xu Zhi said. "Different combinations of Soul Stoves will naturally result in different effects after fusion. For example, my Heavenly Eye Soul Stove has fused resonance, space, spiritual vision, repulsion, and holy guidance. As for the form of the Soul Stove, it was finalized after fusing with the Wisdom and Spiritual God's Throne."

"The fusion of Soul Stoves is a profound field of knowledge. The organic reactions that can occur between them are enough to create entirely new abilities. For example, the Holy Guidance Soul Stove and the Repulsion Soul Stove. The Holy Guidance Soul Stove's effect is that after activation, enemies will only target you. The Repulsion Soul Stove, as the name suggests, generates a strong repulsive force. After the fusion of the two Soul Stoves, the abilities are interconnected, allowing my Soul Stove to exert attractive force in addition to repulsive force, and holy repulsion in addition to holy guidance."

Xu Yuan slowly opened his mouth wide, moved his lips, and found himself unable to retort.

What a Universal Pull, what a Divine Push.

Moreover, holy guidance and holy repulsion could be interconnected like this.

If the path of Soul Stoves truly developed, it could indeed become a profound field of knowledge.

Unfortunately, Soul Stoves are scarce on the Holy Demon Continent due to the invasion of the Demon Race.

"Dad, did you choose the Wisdom and Spiritual God's Throne early on?"

"More or less," Xu Zhi said vaguely.

With this God's Throne, the progress of his super artifact Soul Stove greatly advanced and completed the most crucial fusion.

If it weren't for this throne, his Soul Stove would not have been able to fuse until now.

On the contrary, he was delighted to hear about Xu Yuan's situation, feeling that he inherently possessed the key opportunity for Soul Stove fusion.

"The combination of Soul Stoves..."

Xu Yuan fell into thought.

Xu Zhi said, "I suggest you try the Holy Guidance Soul Stove. This Soul Stove inherently possesses evolutionary abilities, which I believe is the key."

Xu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly.

He understood Xu Zhi's meaning.

The ability of evolution might be able to be fused in.

"Moreover, the effect of the Holy Guidance Soul Stove should also be useful to you. After all, your martial soul is a spear. Fighting with a spear means that enemies can only fight you, which is a very practical ability."

Xu Yuan was thoughtful.

Holy Guidance...

His brain martial soul also had a 'Star Shift' soul skill. Could stacking it reverse the effect of Holy Guidance? Would his attacks have to land on the enemy's head?

Target acquisition?

"In addition to Holy Guidance, the Yuan Vortex Soul Stove is also very suitable for you, and it also possesses multi-stage evolutionary abilities."

"The Yuan Vortex Soul Stove can condense a vortex that constantly absorbs external energy, which is very compatible with Jue's ability. It can be combined with his devouring ability."

After hearing Xu Zhi's description of the Yuan Vortex Soul Stove's effect, Xu Yuan clearly revealed an expression of interest.

Condensing a vortex that constantly improves is secondary. The main point is that pairing it with the active devouring ability might greatly strengthen Jue's devouring ability.

After all, Jue's devouring ability is derived from the Five Elements and belongs to a side path.

If some abilities from devouring are combined, it might truly transform into the attribute of devouring and embark on the path of true devouring.

Moreover, Xu Yuan also discovered a common point in the two Soul Stoves recommended by Xu Zhi, which was the ability to evolve.

"In fact, all Soul Stoves possess the ability to evolve, only differing in the number of evolutions. These two Soul Stoves both possess three evolutionary abilities, which should be because the Soul Stoves themselves have more easily evolved traits. I initially added the Holy Guidance Soul Stove for this trait, but unfortunately, the Heavenly Eye Soul Stove doesn't seem to have obtained this ability. After reflection, I feel that one Holy Guidance Soul Stove is not enough."

"The two Soul Stoves I recommended to you both possess relatively strong evolutionary abilities. If you choose another Soul Stove with three stages of evolutionary abilities that suits you, you might be able to inherit that evolutionary trait and allow Jue to transform because of it. Of course, even if you don't inherit this trait, the abilities of the three Soul Stoves integrating into Jue's origin will be enough to pry open his bottleneck and provide an excellent opportunity for breakthrough."

Xu Yuan slowly nodded.

The solution given by Xu Zhi was very reasonable and reliable.

This was more useful than simply breaking through the million-year heavenly tribulation.

Moreover, the million-year heavenly tribulation was too hopeless for the current Xu Yuan and Jue.

After the 900,000-year Heavenly Tribulation mixed with Thunder Tribulation, Xu Yuan and the other would have to deal with it with all their strength. They would definitely not be able to withstand a million-year Heavenly Tribulation.

The intensity of this Heavenly Tribulation had begun to change after 700,000 years. It was definitely no longer a fixed intensity, but was determined by the strength of the tribulation passer.

This was truly purely to prevent Soul Beasts from becoming gods.

Now that there was an additional path, allowing Jue's abilities to reach a higher level, the possibility of passing the million-year Heavenly Tribulation was even greater.

Although Jue's improvement would lead to another increase in the million-year Heavenly Tribulation, Heavenly Tribulations would eventually come to an end.

This was a man-made calamity.

If even a God King-level power could not pass the Heavenly Tribulation for Soul Beasts becoming gods, then it would be too outrageous.

Not to mention God King-level, the power of a first-level god should be able to pass it steadily.

If the Dragon God wanted to prevent a Soul Beast race that possessed this level of strength before passing the million-year Heavenly Tribulation from becoming a god, then the karma owed would be too great.

Of course, this was almost impossible.

Even Xu Yuan, before becoming a god, had a huge gap in strength from a first-level god.

However, this world allowed for cheating.

Tang Wulin could rely on the Golden Dragon King's bloodline to possess excessive power before becoming a god, and so could Jue.

Jue was Xu Yuan's Soul Spirit, and the stronger Xu Yuan was, the stronger it would be.

This was Jue's cheat.

"Three Soulforges, it's best to also consider Jue's tribulation passing. If the first two Soulforges are chosen as the Holy Guidance Soulforge and the Yuan Vortex Soulforge, then the third Soulforge must be one that strengthens combat power, and one that can directly improve combat power."

Moreover, one point was very important.

He only needed to release three layers of domain here to trigger the Thunder Tribulation.

And after the Thunder Tribulation was mixed with the Heavenly Tribulation, the dominant factor would definitely still be the laws of the Divine Demon Continent.

At this time, using the Soulforge system of the Holy Demon Continent to resist the calamity might be easier.

Because many of the Soulforges possessed absolute certainty, especially in the Holy Demon Continent, this would be most strongly guaranteed.

So, among the Soulforges of the Holy Demon Continent, which one was suitable for Jue and possessed the effect of restraining Thunder Tribulation?

Xu Yuan frowned and pondered.

However, he still had to ask Xu Zhi about this.

After all, Xu Yuan's understanding of Soulforges was too superficial.

"Dad, do you have Soulforge information here? In the current era, what other powerful Soulforges are suitable for Jue that you would recommend?"

"Yes, yes, Xiao Yuan, there are as many as nine Soulforges in the current Holy Demon Continent that are suitable for Jue. In addition to the two Soulforges I recommended to you, there is also the Thousand Strike Soulforge, which may involve the power of time, and also..."

Xu Zhi listed many alternative Soulforge options for Xu Yuan.

Xu Yuan was not very satisfied with any of them.

The effect of the Thousand Strike Soulforge sounded like it just made the spear thrust faster, and the so-called involvement of the power of time was just a possibility.

Moreover, simply thrusting faster had too little effect on tribulation passing.

"Actually, there is another option."

Xu Yuan pondered for a long time, his eyes slightly narrowed.

"Oh?"

Xu Zhi looked at Xu Yuan, curious about his son's thoughts.

"Condense a new Soulforge yourself," Xu Yuan said.

His tone was very firm.

"The Soulforges of the Holy Demon Continent are not fixed either. The current Soulforge rankings are just the known Soulforges of the current continent."

Xu Yuan was very authoritative on this point.

Because his current body was the one that had just been condensed.

This Soulforge was definitely not on the Soulforge rankings currently compiled by the Federation.

So, condensing a new Soulforge was completely feasible.

It was just that the ability of the new Soulforge...

Xu Zhi looked at Xu Yuan, revealing a puzzled expression.

What ability did he want?

And how could he guarantee that he would obtain the desired ability?

Xu Yuan looked at Xu Zhi and said his answer.

"Dad, your goal is actually very clear. The abilities of the three Soulforges are not crucial to me. In your plan, the most important thing for me is actually that evolutionary ability."

Xu Zhi revealed a smile.

He understood Xu Yuan's meaning.

"You want to promote the gestation of a brand new Soulforge, and the ability of the Soulforge is evolution."

"Yes," Xu Yuan nodded.

"But how do you guarantee that you will condense such a Soulforge?"

"This is what I am good at."

Xu Yuan laughed.

"You're good at it?" Xu Zhi revealed a puzzled expression.

Could one specify the ability of a Soulforge when condensing it?

If the Holy Demon Continent had such a method, then the Soulforge system would have been developed and perfected long ago, and it would not have formed the current situation where Soulforges were so difficult to obtain.

"Evolution is just another form of burst. Superimposing the various abilities of burst can maximize the probability of gestating a Soulforge related to evolution," Xu Yuan said.

"As for how to gestate a new Soulforge, it's nothing more than creating an environment where Soulforges can be gestated."

"It is still very easy to create an environment for nurturing natural treasures, just open up a small world."

Open up a small world?

The corners of Xu Zhi's mouth twitched.

What kind of statement was this?

Just open up?

Was this something that could be done casually?

Thinking of Xu Yuan himself saying that he already possessed three small worlds that he had completely perfected, Xu Zhi had nothing to say.

This was indeed a unique skill.

"But, there are many types of natural treasures, nurturing Soulforges—"

Before Xu Zhi could finish speaking, Xu Yuan interrupted him.

"I have a feeling."

Xu Yuan's words were vague.

However, his tone was very firm.
