Chapter 176: Jealousy from Yu Xiaogang
🕑 Added 2024-05-30 19:05:49 +0000 UTC"Pope, do we really need to give him all of Su Wen's information?" Chrysanthemum Douluo cautiously asked.
Following Bibi Dong as her guardian before she grew up, Chrysanthemum Douluo was aware of the entanglements between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang.
Bibi Dong glanced over coldly, "Just give him the sources of Su Wen's four Spirit Rings and his Spirit Skills."
"Yes," Chrysanthemum Douluo sighed inwardly.
As expected, the Pope still takes care of that guy.
Spirit Skills are a Spirit Master's privacy; aside from voluntarily telling others, even if guessed by others during use, it's usually just a rough idea.
However, Bibi Dong plans to give Yu Xiaogang the intelligence on Su Wen registered in Spirit Hall.
If Su Wen, who infiltrated Heaven Dou under a hidden identity as a genius from Spirit Hall, knew about this, it could lead to disloyalty and discord.
But it seems Su Wen is under the young master's command, and since the young master does not get along with the Pope, it doesn't seem to matter much.
Watching Su Wen being pushed to Qian Renxue and having his intelligence given to Yu Xiaogang, along with all the previously formulated plans, Chrysanthemum Douluo found it increasingly difficult to understand Bibi Dong's true intentions.
To outsiders, all her actions appeared well-organized and aimed at strengthening Spirit Hall, but the things she privately allowed contradicted her goals.
Chrysanthemum Douluo shook his head internally and stopped pondering.
Regardless, they were now tied to the Pope's faction and could only do their best to assist her.
Yu Xiaogang looked at the information on Su Wen's four major Spirit Rings and Spirit Skills in his hand and fell into deep thought.
"The first Spirit Ring comes from the Starlight Fruit Tree? Lucky guy, encountering such a rare Spirit Ring in Nuoding City's Spirit Hunting Forest, and the age is top-notch."
"The second Spirit Ring comes from a thousand-year Phantom Fox? Spirit Skill: Wind and Fire Element Control."
"The third Spirit Ring is from a three-thousand-year Stone Monster? Spirit Skill: Stone Formation, which also caused the second Spirit Skill to mutate, adding Earth Element Control."
"The fourth Spirit Ring comes from a seven-thousand-year old Bright Flower? Spirit Skill: Healing Light?"
The combination of the first three Spirit Rings alone left Yu Xiaogang's mind reeling. While feeling jealous of Su Wen's luck, he also couldn't understand the effectiveness of Su Wen's combinations.
Just these three Spirit Skills allowed Su Wen to master so many techniques for using wind and fire elements?
Doesn't that mean all of Su Wen's abilities are essentially self-created Spirit Skills?
This made Yu Xiaogang even more uncomfortable.
Seeing the fourth Spirit Ring, Yu Xiaogang was even more baffled.
What kind of strange combination is this?
Clearly, after developing the Book Martial Spirit into a combat Martial Spirit with great difficulty, why pair it with Healing Light?
Although it's normal for Su Wen's well-rounded combat methods to include a healing auxiliary Spirit Skill, Yu Xiaogang felt this didn't align with the balanced or extreme styles he knew.
It seemed like a random combination.
Even though Su Wen's techniques are comprehensive and he has the capability to add other Spirit Rings, why not add a powerful water-attribute Spirit Ring? It might increase the chance of mutating the second Spirit Skill.
Although Yu Xiaogang was jealous of Su Wen's luck, with each Spirit Ring being top-notch and even the third ring causing the second Spirit Skill to mutate, he had to admit that Su Wen's approach was correct.
So, why not pair the fourth ring with another attribute?
"Or is it that he wants to rely on this Sunflower to not only add Healing Light but also gain the even rarer life attribute?" Yu Xiaogang speculated.
If that's the case, then this kid is truly greedy.
Betting on getting a new elemental control is already lucky enough, and he still wants the life attribute?
Analyzing Su Wen's Spirit Ring combination strategy, Yu Xiaogang, believing he had figured out some ideas, set it aside for the moment.
"The cultivation method of twin Martial Spirits is the key point. Bibi Dong actually said to absorb them directly, but the risk is extremely high, so there must be corresponding techniques."
With Su Wen's information in hand, Yu Xiaogang felt he had plenty of time to study it and believed he could uncover some insights.
He thought the most important thing right now was how to cultivate twin Martial Spirits.
"Bibi Dong is the only one who has successfully cultivated twin Martial Spirits, but if she doesn't talk, where else can I get information?"
...
Visiting Spirit City for the first time, Su Wen marveled at its grandeur.
It was even more splendid than Heaven Dou City.
What was most striking was the mysterious radiance that Spirit City emanated, with the towering angel statue at its center, visible from afar outside the city, glowing with golden light.
"Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, I don't know why you were in the team pursuing Tang Hao, but since you were part of that battle, you are also my targets."
"As for Bibi Dong, a lovesick and crazy woman, it's better to stay away from her and avoid contact if possible."
Now that Su Wen had reached level fifty-nine, he had the confidence to think this way.
"Brother Xiaowen, that angel statue is so special," Ning Rongrong whispered.
Su Wen nodded and followed Ning Rongrong's gaze to the giant statue at the center of Spirit City.
Not just special.
That was the symbol of the entire Spirit Hall, the statue of the Angel God.
It gathered the faith of countless Spirit Masters from across the Continent.
Even though most of this faith was absorbed by the Angel God, the faith power swirling around the statue as a mere symbol was still extremely dense.
Originally, Su Wen hadn't planned to study the power of faith so early.
At least, he didn't think it would be possible to forcibly study the power of faith before reaching Limit Douluo.
The preparations he could make were only for collecting faith in the future, such as establishing the Wisdom Palace.
However, after coming to Spirit Hall today and seeing that enormous angel statue, Su Wen realized he could actually sense that special energy.
"Is it because of my Spirit Fusion Technique with Rongrong?" Su Wen pondered silently, trying to understand the root cause of why he and Ning Rongrong could sense this special energy.
The Heavenly Book Martial Spirit has now evolved into a top-tier Martial Spirit, and its level is very high.
But this is not the key point. Even though the Heavenly Book Martial Spirit is exceptional, there are still Spirit Masters on the Continent with Martial Spirits that are not much different in quality from Su Wen's.
It's not so much the high quality of Su Wen's Martial Spirit but rather the unique development of it.
Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, while not a god-level Martial Spirit, has some extraordinary traits, nearly reaching the level of Law-based abilities.
When combined with Su Wen's Heavenly Book in a Spirit Fusion Technique, they might have reached a level that allows them to sense the angel statue.
"Although it's just a vague sense, it's a good start."
Just as sensing elemental power is the beginning of harmonizing with it, with the right method and enough talent, one can always grasp some techniques.
Although the power of faith is far higher than elemental power, the principle remains the same.
