After so many days of deep meditation, Chen Yuan finally woke up. Ning Rongrong, who had been keeping watch by his side, immediately exclaimed with joy:
"Brother Chen Yuan, you're awake!"
Chen Yuan turned his gaze toward Ning Rongrong, and seeing her delighted expression, a smile spread across his face. "Rongrong, did I take a long time absorbing this spirit ring? You seem so happy just because I woke up!"
Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly. "From the start of the absorption until now, it's been seven or eight days! My sisters and I agreed to take turns keeping watch over you while the others cultivated. Today was my turn again. Now that you're awake, I'll go call the others back."
Chen Yuan immediately waved his hand, stopping Ning Rongrong from calling the others. "They're all cultivating right now. Let's not disturb them. Besides, I still have one final step to complete."
Under Ning Rongrong's astonished gaze, Chen Yuan summoned his martial soul. The Seven Kill Sword hovered in mid-air, and a massive blood-red spirit ring with golden patterns rose from beneath his feet.
What Chen Yuan wanted to do was refine this eighth spirit ring into his martial soul, allowing his Seven Kill Sword to truly possess the cultivation of a million years.
With that, Chen Yuan began. He placed his hand on the spirit ring and began channeling his spirit power into it. To refine the spirit ring, the first step was to suppress it, solidifying the energy form of the spirit ring into a physical state.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to separate it from its original form and transform it into a star within his martial soul.
Only someone like Chen Yuan, with his three spirit cores, could achieve this at his current level of spirit power. His spirit power quality was on par with that of a Super Douluo, or else refining the spirit ring would have been impossible.
As his spirit power poured into the spirit ring, the seven golden patterns on the massive ring erupted with dazzling light, instinctively resisting the spirit power Chen Yuan was infusing.
Chen Yuan couldn't afford to fail now. With a focused mind, he entered a state of unity between man and sword. His sword aura shot into the sky, piercing the heavens. The relentless, aggressive spirit power enveloped the seven golden patterns one by one.
"Refine!"
Chen Yuan's expression was solemn, his eyes filled with determination. The 700,000-year cultivation was indeed terrifying, but with his three spirit cores, his spirit power was inexhaustible.
Amidst the dazzling golden light, the energy form of the spirit ring gradually solidified and rapidly contracted inward, condensing into a liquid energy. The terrifying energy fluctuations caused the air to distort.
The Seven Kill Sword shot forward, plunging into the head-sized mass of liquid energy. As the liquid energy enveloped the sword, it was rapidly absorbed until the last trace of energy flowed into the martial soul.
On the Seven Kill Sword, in addition to the seven five-pointed stars—one yellow, two purple, two black, one black with red, and one pure red—an eighth star appeared. This was a red star that shimmered with golden light.
As the red star took shape, the Seven Kill Sword trembled slightly. Then, a resounding sword cry echoed through the heavens, heard by everyone on Sea God Island. People instinctively stopped what they were doing and turned their gazes toward the center of the island.
At this moment, the Seven Kill Sword, now radiating golden sword energy, exuded an overwhelming divine might. Just a single glance at it caused stinging pain in the eyes, as if a sharp sword hung overhead, sending chills down the spine.
With the cultivation of 1.26 million years, Chen Yuan's Seven Kill Sword had completed its divine transformation, becoming a divine-level martial soul.
A smile spread across Chen Yuan's face, one of unrestrained joy. As he looked at his Seven Kill Sword, a thought suddenly occurred to him:
'Perhaps even the Chen family ancestor who created the Refining Spirit Ring technique never imagined that refining a million-year cultivation into a martial soul could transform it into a divine artifact. From now on, the Seven Kill Sword should be called the Seven Kill Divine Sword.'
At that moment, Chen Yuan raised his hand, and the Seven Kill Divine Sword landed in his grasp. The instant he held the sword, he felt an overwhelming sense of grandeur, as if no one in the world could withstand a single strike from him.
As a swordsman, this invincible mindset allowed him to unleash 200% of his strength with the sword in hand.
The Clear Sky Hammer's core skill, Ring Explosion, was hailed as a divine technique. Generations of the Tang family—Tang Chen, Tang Hao, and Tang San—had each used the Clear Sky Hammer to defeat the Spirit Hall's popes.
However, Chen Yuan believed that his Refining Spirit Ring technique was no less impressive than Ring Explosion. Not only was it safer, but it was also more stable. Now, every strike he made could deliver what was known as a divine strike. The sharp golden sword energy was enough to make anyone feel as if a blade was pressed against their back.
Although it was difficult for a normal soul master to accumulate a million years of cultivation across nine spirit rings, relying on Ring Explosion to boost explosive power came with severe backlash, both to the user and their martial soul. This was something no ordinary soul master could endure.
On Sea God Mountain, Bo Saixi was also lost in thought. Despite being only a Spirit Douluo, Chen Yuan had forged his own divine artifact. The sharpness of that sword had even sent a chill down her spine.
Although it was unbelievable, Bo Saixi had to admit that without invoking the Sea God's divine power, she wouldn't be able to suppress Chen Yuan quickly. With the sharpness of that sword, he was already capable of standing against her.
Taking a deep breath, Bo Saixi snapped out of her reverie. She opened her mouth, using her spirit power to amplify her voice and transmit her orders to the guardians of the Seven Sacred Pillars, instructing them to reassure the residents of Sea God Island.
Meanwhile, within the Sea God's Light, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and Zhu Zhuqing, who had been cultivating, were also startled awake by the commotion. They exited the Sea God's Light and, seeing that Chen Yuan had awakened and was the source of the disturbance, rushed over with a mix of surprise and joy.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan smiled and said, "It seems I disturbed your cultivation."
Dugu Yan shook her head, her eyes filled with amazement as she looked at the Seven Kill Sword in Chen Yuan's hand. "Your martial soul has changed. How did you do that just now?"
Chen Yuan smiled and explained, "My eighth spirit ring, thanks to the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, reached 700,000 years. Just now, I refined this 700,000-year eighth spirit ring into my martial soul, giving it a total cultivation of over a million years. This completed the divine transformation of my martial soul. Now, the Seven Kill Sword can be called the Seven Kill Divine Sword. Unlike an ordinary martial soul, it has naturally become something extraordinary."
Upon hearing this, the four women were utterly shocked. A 700,000-year eighth spirit ring, a Seven Kill Divine Sword with over a million years of cultivation...
Even though they knew Chen Yuan's gains would be significant, hearing him say it out loud was still incredibly astonishing.
Dugu Yan felt both joy and a tinge of loss. She was happy for Chen Yuan but also felt the gap between them had grown even wider. Suddenly, she remembered the Ten-Headed Fiery Yang Snake's inner core that Chen Yuan had given her.
Her Jade Phosphorus Dragon martial soul had evolved from the Jade Phosphorus Snake. If she refined the Ten-Headed Fiery Yang Snake's inner core, could she make up for her shortcomings and advance her martial soul further? It seemed like a promising possibility.
