As a stream of golden energy was injected into the solid Bloodline Power, a surge of purple-green energy poured into the solid Spiritual Power, causing the two masses of solid soul power to begin rioting uncontrollably.
Seeing the soul power within the solid masses becoming increasingly manic, Yun Ming could no longer afford to worry about anything else. Golden flames rose in his eyes, and his Divine Origin Realm Spiritual Power erupted fully, suppressing the two masses of solid soul power like a physical force.
The sudden turn of events caused the expression of Yang Wudi to change drastically. The riot of the two solid soul power masses did not just affect Yun Ming; it also impacted Yang Wudi. Yun Ming could no longer fully suppress the solid soul power, causing the two masses to begin indiscriminately absorbing the surrounding energy, which included the soul power of Yang Wudi. At the same time, the leakage of the solid soul power's aura allowed Yang Wudi to clearly perceive just how terrifying a destructive energy Yun Ming was currently controlling.
Yun Ming noticed the change in Yang Wudi's side, and before Yang Wudi could even speak, Yun Ming immediately shouted a warning.
"Grandfather! Get away from here quickly!!"
The pure soul power of a Soul Douluo, bearing a strong personal imprint, was different from normal heaven and earth energy. If too much of this soul power were absorbed by the solid soul power, it would affect Yun Ming's control over them and significantly lower the success rate of his plan. Once it failed, the soul core would explode, and both he and Yang Wudi would undoubtedly suffer heavy injuries, or even face life-threatening danger. In this situation, having Yang Wudi retreat was the only correct choice.
Yang Wudi desperately wanted to go up and help, but he did not understand soul cores. Moreover, judging by the energy fluctuations radiating from Yun Ming's solid soul power, his own cultivation as a mid-level Soul Douluo was not enough to intervene. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and retreat to a position a hundred meters away, where he could still see Yun Ming without being too affected by the solid soul power.
With Yang Wudi's departure, Yun Ming's concerns were cleared. While suppressing the two solid soul power masses with all his might, he began to divide his attention to consider the nature of the two strange energies and deduce a solution.
God Slaying Power, Golden Tree Origin; I never expected such two powers to be hidden within the Atlas Divine Spear! Yun Ming thought to himself.
Just as Yun Ming had perceived, the two pure energies that had suddenly appeared from the Atlas Divine Spear were precisely the energy of the God Slaying Soul Missile that had cost Yun Ming his life in his previous existence, and the power of the Golden Tree that had provided him with immense help on his path of growth.
The reason these two opposing energies, containing the power of annihilation and creation, appeared within the Atlas Divine Spear was certainly due to that Shrek Extinction War, but the specific reason actually lay in the Atlas Divine Spear itself.
Back then, when Yun Ming burned everything to assist the Atlas Spear in its ultimate leap, it certainly allowed the Atlas Spear to become a divine artifact, but it also left behind problems.
When the Atlas Spear first became a divine artifact, its realm was unstable. Yun Ming had already fallen, leaving only his soul, and he was about to be swept away by a Space-Time Rift, leaving him powerless to help the Atlas Spear stabilize its realm. At this critical moment, the divine artifact instinct of the Atlas Spear, in order to protect itself, had no choice but to extract the God Slaying and Golden Tree powers that were dissipating in the space before it departed, drawing them into the spear to temper the artifact's origin through the two opposing energies and achieve the effect of stabilizing its realm.
Originally, in the years since Yun Ming's rebirth, these two energies had been almost completely consumed in the process of stabilizing the spear's origin. It was estimated that they would have dissipated completely in another year or two, which was why Yun Ming had not discovered these two energies in the Atlas Divine Spear—they were simply too thin.
However, he had not expected that the solid Bloodline Power he condensed through the Star Luo Spirit Pearl would trigger the residual Golden Tree energy, which in turn stirred up the God Slaying Power that had been contending with it for years.
Now, the solid Bloodline Power had received the blessing of the Golden Tree energy, which symbolized the power of creation, while the solid Spiritual Power had received the God Slaying energy, which represented the power of annihilation. From the perspective of the soul core alone, this was undoubtedly good. The two high-quality energies fit the characteristics of Yin-Yang Complementary absolute opposition, and they were also very compatible with the properties of the two solid soul power masses. The injection of these two energies would undoubtedly make their quality higher and increase their future growth potential.
But the trouble they caused for Yun Ming lay right here. His original plan was already like walking a tightrope, with every condition tightly constrained. Now that this situation had occurred, the formation strength of the two soul cores would definitely be stronger than his expected initial state, which disrupted all his subsequent calculations. Yun Ming was not even sure what the final result would be.
The sudden change also drew the attention of the four great Soul Spirits within his body. Tian Ling, the Evil King, and both versions of Ao Tian appeared behind Yun Ming.
Without needing Yun Ming to say anything, the two Ao Tians immediately activated their stabilization attributes to help stabilize the solid soul power.
With their help, Yun Ming was finally able to catch his breath. Tian Ling said with a grave expression.
"Master, what should we do now?"
Originally, Yun Ming's arrangement for them was to help suppress the soul core conflict when he was fusing them, but now they had to act in advance. For Tian Ling and the others, who had lost their physical bodies and only had their origins left, this was a huge additional consumption, and whether they would have the strength to help later was unknown.
Hearing this, Yun Ming pondered for a moment, a look of determination flashing in his eyes as he spoke to the four Soul Spirits.
"Things have come to this, we can no longer pull back. We can only go all the way to the end."
"How about it, friends? Do you dare to gamble your lives?!"
The four Soul Spirits laughed out loud.
"Of course! When this King was risking his life, your ancestors didn't even know if they were born yet!" This was the future Ao Tian.
"Let's do it!" This was the Evil King.
The remaining two held the same attitude. The life of a Soul Beast was a daily gamble, so naturally, there was nothing they dared not do.
Yun Ming responded.
"Then let's begin!"
Afterward, the two Ao Tians were responsible for continuing to stabilize the soul power with all their might to promote the formation of the soul cores; the Evil King used his devouring power to help Yun Ming recover his Spiritual Power and soul power; Tian Ling was responsible for isolating the suction force of the solid soul power from Yun Ming and the Evil King.
Through the concerted efforts of one human and four beasts, the solid soul power was re-stabilized and entered the final stage of energy accumulation.
As time passed, the colors of the two solid soul power masses changed once again. The solid Spiritual Power changed from its original noble, pure gold to a dark purple-gold containing a hint of violent aura, while the solid Bloodline Power changed from its original red to a bright scarlet gold. Moreover, tiny space cracks began to appear around the two solid soul power masses.
Around the funnel-shaped solid soul power, the cracks also turned into dark purple-gold and scarlet gold. Amidst those two-colored golden lights, the black of the Space-Time Rift flickered in and out of existence.
Seeing that this stage of the solid soul power was coming to an end, Yun Ming changed his hand seals, and countless space forces around the solid soul power began to condense and pour into it. As the space force was devoured, the space cracks became larger and larger, which made it increasingly difficult for the two Ao Tians who were assisting in stabilizing the solid soul power. The present-day Ao Tian said.
"Yun Ming, if this continues, I probably won't have the ability to help you suppress the fusion riot later. Prepare yourself!"
Hearing Ao Tian's words, Yun Ming said in a deep voice.
"I understand. Focus on stabilizing, leave everything else to me."
Finally, seeing that the soul bodies of the two Ao Tians were becoming somewhat dim, and the space cracks on the surface of the two solid soul power masses had become as dense as a web, with black cracks constantly appearing and being swallowed and absorbed by the solid soul power, the rotation speed of the solid soul power approached its limit. All the space around them became completely distorted.
Yun Ming saw that both masses of solid soul power had turned into strange light clusters intermingled with black light, storing extremely vast and terrifying soul power. Knowing that the final step had arrived, he immediately took action.
Come! Collapse!
Yun Ming roared in his heart, injecting Spiritual Power and Bloodline Power into the two solid soul power masses respectively.
Success or failure, it all depended on this one move.
Receiving the power of the same attribute, the two solid soul power masses trembled slightly. The solid soul power, which had been rotating rapidly, stopped in this instant. From extreme motion to extreme stillness, this abrupt feeling made Yun Ming feel as if he were dying. However, in the very next instant, Yun Ming felt that everything around him had become blurred. He felt as if he were in the starry sky, surrounded by that strange and gentle space force.
In an instant, space suddenly collapsed. Everything seemed to collapse toward his body as the center. The terrifying space force seemed to tear his body into pieces in an instant.
However, in the instant after being torn apart, his body recombined, and his consciousness returned. Yun Ming was shocked to see that the two solid soul power masses had completely collapsed, becoming two black hole vortices. Yun Ming sighed with emotion.
"That wasn't easy! The first step is finally done."
