"Xiao Tian, begin."
Chen Junting watched, also expecting.
He didn't know what changes the Yearning Heartbroken Red, as a divine product among Immortal Herbs that had also undergone metamorphosis, would bring?
Ning Tian sat cross-legged and opened her mouth to hold the petals of the Yearning Heartbroken Red. As soon as the petals, soft like willow catkins yet hard as metal and stone, entered her mouth, they immediately turned into juice and melted.
A warm current subsequently flowed into Ning Tian's throat.
As petals of the Yearning Heartbroken Red turned into juice and flowed into Ning Tian's body, a layer of faint golden-pink light began to appear around her body. Her originally golden hair also became crystal-like under the rendering of the light, as if each strand were a crystal thread.
At this moment, a massive energy surged from her. The illusion of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower Martial Soul also appeared behind her at this time. As nine-colored light circulated, it merged with the golden-pink light.
Immediately, the illusion of a large flower appeared accordingly.
Petals swayed, love filled the sky. The intertwining of the Martial Soul and the Immortal Herb illusion caused two different powers to gradually combine. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower sank, the Yearning Heartbroken Red sank, and golden-pink light filled the illusion of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower Martial Soul.
Watching this scene, Chen Junting smiled at the corner of his mouth.
He dared to confirm that after Ning Tian finished absorbing the Yearning Heartbroken Red, her Martial Soul would inevitably welcome a transformation. Moreover, this transformation would absolutely allow her Martial Soul to reach the God-level tier.
Although not extreme, it surpassed the extreme.
Just at this moment, a strange fluctuation spilled out. Light and shadow like a revolving lantern uncontrollably flashed through his mind.
Without the coverage of that love from before, this fluctuation, same as before, immediately made Chen Junting feel surprised.
"This is… the power of memory?"
But the guess about "memory" just emerged and was rejected by himself. Because now, he could clearly feel that not only was his consciousness flashing through those fragments, but even his body underwent subtle changes under this strange power.
"What power is this exactly?"
Simple amplification?
No, absolutely not.
To verify this power, Chen Junting gently sliced a cut on his finger. But in an instant, the finger returned to normal.
Immediately, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He roughly guessed what this power was!
Not healing, but Time!
To make a wound heal instantly, there were only two situations. The first was the infusion of vitality to heal the wound; the second was to make time reverse or time advance, either restoring the wound's position to its original state or accelerating the wound's self-healing.
Obviously, Chen Junting, who possessed the Gold of Life, understood the life attribute very well. He knew this was absolutely not the power of life.
So this strange power was Time!
But why?
"The transformed Yearning Heartbroken Red is love, how could time attributes appear?"
Regarding this, Chen Junting was puzzled.
If forced to connect them…
Perhaps there was only one explanation: Love can make people feel time passes quickly, and can also make people feel the length of time while waiting. Love can make people young, while the passage of time reveals the truth of love.
"Could it really be like this?"
Chen Junting shook his head secretly.
Since he couldn't figure out why, then don't think about it. Anyway, no matter what, having the power of time was ultimately good.
As for what happened next…
It was how to let Xiao Tian utilize this power of time.
After all, if this was wasted, it would be a pity.
Thinking to this point, he watched quietly.
As time passed, Ning Tian's surging energy gradually calmed down, but her cultivation level climbed layer by layer. It reached the threshold of level 70 before stopping.
After a long time, Ning Tian slowly opened her eyes.
At this time, dusk had passed, and the sky had already dimmed.
"Phew—"
As a mouthful of turbid air was exhaled, she stood up and gently moved her body. She felt her current condition was incredibly good. Compared to before, it was like being completely reborn.
"Xiao Tian, how do you feel?"
Chen Junting spoke out, pulling Ning Tian's thoughts back.
She looked at her Brother Junting and smiled slightly.
"I feel incredibly good."
"Then look at your Martial Soul."
Seeing Chen Junting's smile, Ning Tian's heart moved.
Extending her right hand, a colorful nine-layer glazed tower stood in her hand, spinning roundly, attracting attention.
At this moment, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was already very different from before!
The pink glazed tower body seemed to pan with faint golden light, surrounded by nine-colored flowing light.
But most importantly, the position of the tower base became similar to a flower base. Nine petals opened, supporting the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower.
Like interdependent, making it seem even harder to part with, as if the Yearning Heartbroken Red and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower had fused.
"Evolved once again."
Ning Tian murmured, her tone like she was sighing with emotion.
"And from now on, my amplification is no longer a ten percent increase, but fifteen percent per every ten levels."
Hearing this, Chen Junting's eyes immediately lit up.
"That means!"
"Hm. Wait until I get the seventh soul ring, my amplification effect will no longer be eighty percent, but one hundred and twenty percent."
"How is it?"
A trace of playfulness appeared on Ning Tian's face. "Not bad, right."
"It is very good."
Chen Junting clapped his hands in praise. "But not only that."
He extended his finger and gently tapped the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower in Ning Tian's hand. A strange power flowed out.
"This is…"
"The power of Time!"
After feeling it slightly, Ning Tian learned the attribute of the energy, and a trace of surprise also revealed itself in her eyes. She never expected her Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower would actually produce a time attribute.
"Yes, Time."
Chen Junting silently withdrew his finger. "Since Xiao Tian your Martial Soul has developed a Time attribute, then don't waste it."
"But it's not easy to handle."
Brows slightly furrowed, Ning Tian shook her head slightly after thinking.
To let the time attribute be utilized, the best and simplest method was to borrow the power of soul rings. But the problem was that Soul Beasts with time attributes were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, or even these types of Soul Beasts had already vanished unknown how long ago.
If really looking for one, it was as hard as climbing to heaven.
Not to mention the soul ring age she needed next was quite high.
Ning Tian's thoughts were naturally known by Chen Junting.
Since soul rings wouldn't work, she can create soul skills herself, first by conducting a simple utilization of the power of time. Perhaps when she develops self-condensed soul rings, this problem could be solved easily.
"Do you have confidence?"
Ning Tian looked at Chen Junting, asking with concern.
"Of course."
Palms flipped, the God-bestowed soul ring obtained from the Haotian Fortress previously fell into Chen Junting's hand. "Wait until I personally experience the mystery of the God-bestowed soul rings, then I can start on self-condensed soul rings. Perhaps after success, I will wash all the soul rings."
"Wash Rings? Why?"
Tilting her head, Ning Tian's tone was full of curiosity.
"Are you unsatisfied with your soul skills?"
"Perhaps."
The answer Chen Junting gave was ambiguous.
Actually, regarding this, he hadn't completely thought it through either.
Of course, the idea of washing rings was not him acting on impulse, a sudden decision. But after making thoughts on his own path to Godhood, he proposed a possibility for subsequent behavior.
That was the source of Divine Skills.
Although a long time had passed, making his memories from his previous life become blurry, he still vaguely remembered that when Tang San became a God, his God Skills came from the inheritance of the previous Sea God.
Then where did the previous Sea God's God Skills come from?
It should be known that the previous Sea God was a first-generation God.
That is to say, God Skills came from the transformation of soul skills. As for whether it was soul ring soul skills or self-created soul skills… Chen Junting leaned more towards the latter. Because even if the former was raised to the hundred-thousand-year level, it was ultimately still a mortal skill, unless the provided Soul Beast was of the level of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, Di Tian, or the Evil Emperor, Snow Empress.
But self-created soul skills were different; they would continuously grow.
As for ordinary soul skills…
Strictly speaking, after becoming a God, it couldn't be said to be useless, only that their utility dropped sharply.
Just like saying this,
Which God is so weak, still using Blue Silver Bind!?
Ring washing does not mean the contracted soul spirit will disappear.
