Chapter 178 It's Not Easy Along the Way
Chapter 178: The Journey Has Not Been Easy
Eyes Sun Qi and Twin · Sun Qi each merged with two Spirit Bones as the situation dictated.
Spirit Bones do not directly increase spirit power, but they stimulate the Spirit Master. Whether it's stimulation to the meridians or to the Spirit, it can cause changes in spirit power. With good luck, it might even increase spirit power by one or two levels.
After merging with the two Spirit Bones, Eyes·Sun Qi broke through to level forty-four, and Twin · Sun Qi broke through to level forty-six.
Before their training in Death Canyon, one was level thirty-nine and the other was level forty-three. After three months, both made significant progress. Eyes·Sun Qi, having merged with a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, improved by five levels in three months, almost comparable to the boost from an Immortal Herb.
Twin · Sun Qi also made considerable progress, increasing by two levels in three months, and then another level due to the stimulation of the two Spirit Bones.
"That's good, I've escaped the lowest spirit power status."
Now, among the seven main bodies, Seal Sun Qi has the lowest spirit power level.
Although there has been a continuous comparison, in reality, all seven Sun Qi, with their unified consciousness, are very satisfied with their seven main bodies.
At an age of less than fourteen, none of the seven main bodies have a spirit power level below forty-three, which is an extremely impressive achievement.
In another three months, when the Soul Master Competition opens, Sun Qi as a whole can improve by another level.
By then, there is real hope of all achieving the Spirit Kingaccomplishment by the age of fifteen.
Heaven Dou City.
Since the baptism of life, in these three months, the three main Sun Qihave been diligently cultivating.
Stone Monkey · Sun Qi and Armor · Sun Qi had already broken through to level forty-nine at that time, while Golden Cudgel · Sun Qi broke through to level forty-eight.
Now, after three months, none of the three have been able to make further breakthroughs.
"It's fine for us two, it's normal for the level fifty bottleneck to be harder to break. But Golden Cudgel body should at least break through to level forty-nine."
Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
The three Sun Qi gathered together for a battle.
That's right, this is Sun Qi's new training method.
Fighting himself.
They engage in three such battles every day, with each of the three main bodies fighting each other once.
The purpose of this is, of course, to familiarize themselves with the abilities of each main body, to analyze their respective weaknesses from a combat perspective, from an enemy's perspective.
Only by finding weaknesses can they better compensate for them.
This is cultivation.
Of course, part of the reason is also that their teammates are too weak.
Even Dugu Yan is somewhat outmatched in front of the three Sun Qi; the three Sun Qi know too many things.
They don't just learn from each other among the seven main bodies; they also collectively tackle various cultivation bottlenecks. For instance, with ordinary spirit power bursts or the most common physical techniques, if any one of the seven main bodies breaks through, the others immediately follow suit, making it practically seven times the cultivation efficiency.
The consciousness is one, but the seven-in-one main bodies have allowed his consciousness to make significant progress, essentially no different from the combined thinking ability of seven independent consciousnesses.
"Wait!"
During the battle, Golden Cudgel · Sun Qi stopped his movements and sat down cross-legged on the spot.
Seeing this, Armor · Sun Qi did not continue fighting.
With a single consciousness, they actually made the movements simultaneously.
"Finally, a breakthrough."
Stone Monkey · Sun Qi looked at the seated Golden Cudgel body, lost in thought.
This breakthrough by the Golden Cudgel body gave him a completely new feeling.
Time passed.
Another two months went by.
Stone Monkey · Sun Qi left the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
He had felt the sensation of a breakthrough half a month ago, so he took leave and came to Dugu Bo's medicinal garden.
It wasn't the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, but the valley where he originally obtained the Long-Armed Ape spirit ring.
After half a month, Little Sun had also gotten to know the Long-Armed Apes here quite well.
Once facing each other in life and death, now they mingled together.
Screech!
Little Sun let out a startled cry, broke free from the Long-Armed Apegroup, and ran back to Sun Qi in a few steps, sitting down cross-legged opposite Sun Qi, just like him.
He's about to break through!
Little Sun was overjoyed.
"Alright, quickly help me."
Sun Qi communicated with Little Sun using Ape Heart Clarity. Little Sun didn't hesitate, quickly circulated his spirit power, drew in the elemental energy of heaven and earth to accumulate within his body, and then fed all the energy within his body back into Sun Qi's body.
With Little Sun's assistance, Sun Qi's spirit power within his body surged, directly breaking through that barrier.
Boom!
Within the valley, the elemental energy of heaven and earth converged.
Above the sky, an invisible vortex subtly gathered.
"This kid, to have such a phenomenon just breaking through to level fifty. When he breaks through to level seventy, won't it be no different from when I broke through to level ninety?"
"No, his fifth ring won't be bad either, and his spirit power quality will undergo another tempering. Perhaps at level sixty, he'll already have the phenomenon I had at level ninety."
Dugu Bo was secretly astonished.
Sun Qi's spirit power aura fluctuated between strong and weak, and after a series of undulations, it stabilized.
Level fifty!
Before the Soul Master Competition, Sun Qi finally had one main body break through!
Stone Monkey · Sun Qi opened his eyes, and various past events flashed through them, filled with emotion.
"Soul Master Competition, Spirit King, fourteen years old…" His mind felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation at this moment.
From the awakening of the Stone Monkey Body with only level one innate spirit power, to its transformation into the unparalleled talent it is today, every step, every little detail, converged in his heart.
"Screech~"
Little Sun appeared beside Sun Qi, letting out a soft cry.
In the Ape Heart Clarity state, he resonated with Sun Qi.
It wasn't just the man and the monkey; the other six Sun Qi also simultaneously felt the resonance in their soul will.
"My journey has truly not been easy."
Sun Qi held the miniaturized Little Sun in his arms and said with emotion,
"Screech!"
Dugu Bo, watching this scene from afar, was also slightly lost in thought.
He, in his younger days, had also struggled and fought like Sun Qi.
Compared to Sun Qi, his journey was even more arduous, cultivating to the Titled Douluo realm despite a Spirit defect.
"Senior, we should depart."
Ultimately, it was Sun Qi who roused Dugu Bo from his memories.
"What's the rush? I've already found your target. We're just going to hunt that War God Ape."
War God Ape is generally the name given to a Battle Ape after its cultivation reaches ten thousand years, awakening the power of the War God and becoming stronger the more it fights.
Sun Qi obtained the Battle Heaven and Earth battle intent amplification Spirit Ability from a Battle Ape for his third spirit ring. Now, if he absorbs a spirit ring from a War God Ape for his fifth spirit ring, there's a high probability he can acquire its talent of growing stronger the more it fights.
"This War God Ape is thirty thousand years old. Can you withstand it?"
"No problem."
The ten-thousand-year nutrition meal brought a new round of strengthening to Sun Qi's physical constitution, at least increasing his endurance by five thousand years.
A normal Spirit Master's fifth ring is around twelve thousand years, and the sixth ring is twenty thousand years.
Sun Qi's fourth ring was already ten thousand years, so with normal growth for his fifth ring, it would be around twenty thousand years.
However, Sun Qi is currently going to absorb a twenty-five-thousand-year spirit ring.
Exceeding levels again and again, each time he obtains a spirit ring far beyond the age limit that his Spirit should merge with at his current stage, he will gradually transform his Spirit into the most powerful Spirit on this continent.
