Chapter 12

Super Fusion: Triple Martial Soul Fusion

"Tell me, what exactly happened during your final battle with the Giant-Pawed Black Tiger?"

In the Spirit Pagoda, in Leng Yaozhu's personal office.

Leng Yaozhu, dressed in a fitted suit, looked down at Gu Lie, who was kneeling on the coffee table, with an "indifferent expression."

On the sofa next to her, Na'er was comfortably nestled in it, enjoying a bucket of fried chicken with bones, and occasionally taking a sip of a large glass of soda, then revealing an extremely happy smile.

"Damn it, that's my favorite flavor of fried chicken from the place I found!"

Gu Lie's mind was filled with a sharp, raging roar, but faced with the imposing aura emanating from Leng Yaozhu, he could only sit obediently and accept Leng Yaozhu's questioning.

According to Leng Yaozhu, if his answer satisfies her enough, then the remaining fried chicken in the bucket is his.

But this also means that if he is even a little slow, he will have to say goodbye to his favorite fried chicken.

Therefore, Gu Lie had no choice but to honestly tell Leng Yaozhu about his thought process during the battle with the giant black tiger Afu, as well as the self-created soul skills he used.

As a result, it would have been better if he hadn't said anything. As soon as he finished speaking, he was hit on the head with an iron fist from Leng Yaozhu.

"Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble, Gu Lie, for recklessly using your self-created soul skill that consumes a lot of energy without any prior preparation?"

"You even dragged Na'er into this mess?! Do you know how worried I was watching you fight the Giant Paw Black Tiger from outside the screen?!"

"If that place weren't the Ascension Platform, but the real world, even I couldn't guarantee that I could rescue you in time!"

"If you were targeted by those unreasonable insects from Shrek Academy, or ambushed by inherently evil evil spirit masters, you would already be dead!"

Leng Yaozhu's scathing rebuke rained down on Gu Lie, leaving him no choice but to obediently bow his head and admit his mistake.

His actions this time were indeed somewhat risky; one could even say, "I suddenly had a brilliant idea."

After he and Na'er's dragon power were enhanced in different ways for some unknown reason, he used "Dragon's Wrath" with all his might, at the cost of almost exhausting his soul power, to destroy most of the giant black tiger's soul power regardless of the difference in their strength, and at the same time, to create huge flaws in its movements.

Then, with Na'er's all-out "Dragon God Dive," she finally killed the giant black tiger in one fell swoop.

Whether it's "Dragon's Fury," which was removed from recent game iterations and could deal fixed damage regardless of level differences or attribute advantages, or "Dragon God's Dive," which is also incredibly powerful in the game and has a stunning effect, the cost is still too high for Ancient Hunter and Na'er at this stage.

If it weren't for the unspoken understanding and cooperation between the two, coupled with the enhanced control over earth elements that Gu Lie obtained from Na'er, which enabled him to use the ground-type skill "Stomp" to influence the Giant Palm Black Tiger's actions, their fate would most likely have been to become "Emergency Escape Type Soul Masters".

"Teacher, please don't blame your brother anymore, because Na'er did the same thing."

"If my brother is to be punished, Na'er is willing to accept the punishment along with him."

Seeing Gu Lie bowing his head as Leng Yaozhu scolded him, Na'er couldn't help but feel that the bucket of fried chicken she was holding didn't smell so good anymore.

Even that glass of sugary soda had taken on a slightly bitter taste.

Looking up at the reprimanded Gu Lie, then down at the bucket of fried chicken in her arms, Na'er hesitated slightly before making her choice—

She climbed onto the coffee table and knelt beside Gu Lie, accepting Leng Yaozhu's reprimand alongside him.

Seeing Na'er's behavior, Leng Yaozhu's initial anger subsided considerably.

Although she had higher expectations for the Ancient Hunter, Na'er's appearance made it easier for her to feel pity. This had nothing to do with favoritism; it was simply the instinct of a normal creature to love beautiful things.

"Alright, just remember this lesson. But I'm curious, there was a special energy flow between you two when you shook hands."

"What exactly is it? Can the teacher take a look?"

She picked up the two little ones, one in each hand, and placed them on the sofa. Leng Yaozhu also sat down on the sofa next to her, her long, slender legs wrapped in black stockings crossed together. After taking off the glasses that she used to enhance her authority, her aura became much softer.

"Teacher, that is the fusion of our different kinds of dragon power."

"My martial soul tells me that it is different from all other dragon martial souls, and Na'er's Silver Dragon Spear also possesses very high-quality dragon power."

"When our hands clasp together, the dragon power between us will merge and sublimate, allowing us to use more powerful self-created soul skills, while also enhancing our abilities."

"The only downside is that the consumption is indeed too high. Originally, I didn't expect that my skill 'Dragon's Wrath' would consume so much soul power. Na'er, when you activated 'Dragon God's Dive,' it seems that you also used up all your soul power, right?"

As Gu Lie explained, he glanced at Na'er beside him.

"Yes, brother, although I didn't unleash the full power of that skill, my soul power was also exhausted."

Na'er nodded obediently, picked up a piece of fried chicken with practiced ease, paused slightly in mid-air, and handed it to Gu Lie.

"Can you let the teacher take a look? We don't need to use soul skills, just entering that state is enough."

Ignoring the feeding between the two, Leng Yaozhu made a further request.

"Okay, Na'er, shall we do it again?"

Gu Lie immediately agreed and extended his hand to Na'er.

Seeing that Na'er hesitated because her hands were a little oily, Gu Lie decisively took her hand.

The next moment, the dragon power belonging to the two of them merged again, forming a special fusion relationship.

"This, this is... even my Heavenly Phoenix Martial Soul felt a trace of fear and resentment, but their soul power clearly hasn't merged?!"

Having personally witnessed the fusion of Gu Lie and Na'er's dragon power, Leng Yaozhu also felt the pressure emanating from the two, a kind of suppression from a superior martial soul that she had almost never experienced before.

She finally understood why the giant black tiger, despite having a huge advantage, didn't pounce on it immediately.

But why does her martial spirit, besides fear, also contain feelings of resentment?

It was as if her martial spirit was telling her that Na'er's current position actually belonged to her?

"Gu Lie, Na'er, may we let your teacher sense your soul power?"

For some reason, Leng Yaozhu said it subconsciously.

She quickly came to her senses. Why had she acted this way under the influence of an unspeakable will?

But Gu Lie and Na'er were clearly unaware of this. After they loosened their grip, Gu Lie reached out his other hand and clasped Leng Yaozhu's hand together.

The two soul powers merged almost instantly upon shaking hands.

Purple and red light burst forth from their hands without warning, transforming into phantom images of Garchomp and Tenhou, enveloping them within them.

"This is... a spirit fusion? And a very high-level spirit fusion at that?"

"not good!"

As soon as Leng Yaozhu experienced the wonderful feeling brought about by the fusion of martial souls, she realized a problem.

The difference in cultivation level between her and Gu Lie was beyond description; it was like a small horse pulling a large cart.

The fusion of their martial souls even gave Leng Yaozhu a significant boost. So what would happen if their fused soul power entered Gu Lie's body uncontrollably?

Realizing this, Leng Yaozhu quickly adjusted her soul power output, changing the total amount of soul power fused between the two of them to the level of a second-ring soul master.

Only then did she have time to experience the benefits that the fusion of their martial souls brought to each other.

Aside from the current increase in soul power cultivation speed and recovery speed, which is almost useless to Leng Yaozhu due to the large gap in their cultivation levels, the dragon power that entered Leng Yaozhu's body through martial soul fusion is sublimating Leng Yaozhu's martial soul in a peculiar way.

For Leng Yaozhu, who was already a four-word Battle Armor Master and a Limit Douluo, this was undoubtedly an unexpected joy.

For a powerhouse of her caliber, once she has reached the limit of her efforts in other areas, the improvement of her martial soul quality is enough to give her an overall leap forward in strength.

Qian Gu Dongfeng was able to become the master of the Spirit Transmission Tower for two reasons. Firstly, his family was full of talented people, who could be his strongest support. Secondly, it was because of the special nature of his martial soul, the Panlong Staff. The evil dragon soul contained within it made the owner of the Panlong Staff martial soul even stronger.

Now, if Leng Yaozhu's martial soul can advance further, she can confidently say, "My martial soul is not inferior either!" and thus join the ranks of the top powerhouses on the continent, truly standing on equal footing with top powerhouses like Yun Ming and Chen Xinjie.

She even had the hope of beating them to their knees and forcing them to go back with her...

On the other side, sensing the fusion of martial spirits between the two, Gu Lie was also quickly analyzing the situation.

"I can feel that this is a 100% Martial Soul Fusion, comparable to Lao Huo and Lao Dong back then. It's just that because my teacher's cultivation level is too far behind mine, the effect is not as exaggerated under her control."

"Also, my teacher and I actually have two Martial Soul Fusion Skills, even though we only have one Martial Soul..."

"Could it be a 100% Martial Soul Fusion? It can provide multiple Martial Soul Fusion Skills to begin with, but since Lao Huo and Lao Dong were brought together by the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, with its extraordinary wisdom, creating four Martial Soul Fusion Skills and giving Lao Huo control over three of them is already the limit, so..."

"However, at this stage, apart from delaying the teacher's time and increasing my cultivation speed and soul power recovery speed, this martial soul fusion doesn't seem to have any other use for me."

"But that's enough."

Perhaps the effect of this martial soul fusion is not significant at this stage, but Gu Lie is very confident that it will become one of his strongest and most powerful trump cards in the future.

Why are the two gay swordsmen of the Tang Sect famous throughout the continent? Because they possess a soul fusion skill that is intertwined and extremely long-lasting.

Ao Rui, the Hao Ri Douluo in the War God Hall, also became the Hall Master of the War God Hall after Chen Xinjie, the Han Hai Douluo, and Guan Yue, the Yue Tian Douluo, because he could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with another War God who was ranked higher.

The combination of Gu Lie and Leng Yaozhu, the Earth Dragon and Heavenly Phoenix, is even more formidable in terms of martial soul fusion skills.

In the future, when Gu Lie's strength officially reaches the level of Super Douluo, or even just Title Douluo, his Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Leng Yaozhu will officially awe the Douluo!

"Ugh, it's so unfair that only my brother and teacher are together! Na'er wants some too!"

Seeing that Gu Lie and Leng Yaozhu had entered the spirit fusion state, Na'er, who was about to continue eating fried chicken, put down the fried chicken in her arms and came to the two of them in a huff to protest.

Although it was a protest, she just watched from the sidelines and didn't actively disturb them.

"Okay, teacher's coming right away..."

Leng Yaozhu and Gu Lie exchanged an apologetic glance. At the same time, they severed the connection of their martial soul fusion, loosened their grip on each other's hands, and then Leng Yaozhu reached out and shook hands with Na'er.

however……

Nothing happened.

Even though Na'er's face turned bright red from trying to forcefully transfer her soul power to Leng Yaozhu, there was no sign that their martial souls were about to merge.

Although Leng Yaozhu had anticipated this outcome, since any two people could perform a Martial Soul Fusion, especially since it involved two seemingly unrelated Martial Souls, the probability of such a fusion was even lower than that of Yun Ming and Ya Li having offspring.

But seeing Na'er's disappointed expression, she was also trying to think of how to start a conversation to comfort Na'er's wounded little heart.

Just then, Leng Yaozhu suddenly realized that her other hand had been grabbed by Gu Lie.

Gu Lie's other hand held Na'er's free hand in his.

"Teacher, Na'er, let's try again."

"Since you can all merge your power with mine, then if I were to act as a conduit, it's not impossible to achieve a three-in-one fusion."

While comforting Na'er, Gu Lie also reminded Leng Yaozhu, and at the same time, he channeled his dragon power and soul power to merge with Na'er and Leng Yaozhu respectively.

The next moment, both Na'er and Leng Yaozhu stared wide-eyed in surprise.

The soul power that the two could not originally merge began to show signs of merging with the addition of Gu Lie.

Their eyes lit up, and they immediately channeled their respective powers, working together with Gu Lie to merge his power and with each other to accelerate the fusion of their powers.

Soon, as the three people completed the fusion of their powers in pairs, their soul power also began to move towards the final trinity fusion.

A purple Garchomp phantom, a red Ho-Oh phantom, and a silver dragon phantom appeared behind the three, transforming into three beams of light that perfectly enveloped them.

As the fusion process progressed, the power of the three individuals began to gradually sublimate.
