Chapter 97: Yin and Yang Soul Refining
Twin Sun Qi didn't make a choice outright.
He sat cross-legged, channeling his Soul Power into meditation.
In meditation, he channeled the energy generated within his body after consuming the nutritious meal, sensing its properties.

"It's actually been able to partially offset the side effects of Whale Glue to the point where they're barely noticeable?"
Twin Sun Qi was utterly astonished.
He even called over Eye Sun Qi, allowing him to use most of his consciousness to aid him in sensing the changes within.
The more he sensed, the more alarmed he became.
"Yin and Yang complement each other! This Ju Douluo can even replenish the evil fire of Whale Glue."
Sun Qi was astonished, gaining a new understanding of Ju Douluo's pharmacological knowledge.
This fellow's understanding of pharmacology, especially the principles of yin and yang, surpassed Dugu Bo's.
At least Dugu Bo hadn't given Dugu Yan the Whale Glue yet.
After carefully sensing the medicinal properties, Twin Sun Qi noticed something unusual.
Even with the complementary yin and yang of the two extremely stubborn medicinal forces, they remained stubborn.
In his meditation, these two forces were actually sinking into his martial soul.
"Left hand, right hand."
Feeling the alternating sensations of burning heat and chill in his arms, Twin Sun Qi knew something was amiss.
Whether it was evil fire or the corresponding yin energy, once it entered his martial soul, it was definitely not a good thing, as the Evil Fire Phoenix's performance showed.
He immediately stood up and began intensive training, absorbing all the experience of his other bodies.
Bibi Dong, Ju Douluo, and Ghost Douluo witnessed the entire process.
"Xiao Qi is indeed the most stable one. He meditates to feel the changes in himself, and he can also arrange the rhythm of the exercise so smoothly in advance," Bibi Dong secretly made a judgment in her heart.
Ju Douluo was also surprised by the performance of Twin Sun Qi.
These exercises will be very beneficial to the absorption of the medicinal effects.
"This kid has some ideas."
Ghost Douluo looked at this scene, but felt something was wrong.
Although Bibi Dong is Twin Sun Qi's teacher, Ghost Douluo has the most contact with Twin Sun Qi. His martial spirit is even more ghostly, and his mental strength is very outstanding. Therefore, he understands Twin Sun Qi very well and can feel that something is wrong with Sun Qi now.
Sun Qi felt a little anxious.
During the exercise of Twin Sun Qi, he was also feeling the changes in the medicinal power in his body. He found that although he was digesting the medicinal power, these medicinal powers seemed to have identified his martial spirit and stubbornly stayed in his arms.
"We have to develop our martial soul!"
He understood. This should be the principle behind the other two plans Ju Douluo mentioned.
This strange energy combining yin and yang can actually penetrate deep into the martial soul, so it is very likely to play an effect in the process of developing the martial soul.
Whether it is the improvement of Soul Power or the cultivation of Soul Skills, this is all about developing the martial soul!
His arms became thicker, the skin on his arms was bursting, and two yellow Soul Rings rose from the soles of his feet.
He was the only one among the seven bodies who did not skip levels.
It's not that he didn't want to skip levels, but from some of Bibi Dong's teachings, he knew the difficulties of skipping levels.
The biggest problem in cultivating twin martial souls is physical fitness.
If the body can't bear the pressure of the Soul Ring, it will explode. This is a problem that normal Soul Masters will encounter when absorbing Soul Rings, and the same is true for twin martial souls. A Soul Master has to bear the Soul Rings of two martial souls, and the pressure is simply skyrocketing.
While each absorbed Spirit Ring improves a Soul Master's basic qualities, there's a limit to human strength. The closer one approaches this limit, the harder it becomes to improve. Consequently, absorbed Spirit Rings won't provide the Soul Master with enough strength to absorb the next one.
And that's just ordinary Spirit Rings.
If the second spirit attempted to absorb all ten-thousand-year or even one-hundred-thousand-year Spirit Rings, it would further disrupt the balance between the two spirits, leading to conflicts between the two spirits caused by the second spirit's mutation or evolution.
"First Spirit Skill, Iron Arms!"
"Second Spirit Skill, Cross-arm Fist!"
His arms radiated a black iron sheen, as if transformed into steel.
Punches struck the air with explosion-like sounds, and a distorted air appeared in front of him as his fists struck.
Twin Sun Qi's second Spirit Skill was acquired from a Cross-arm Monkey. He wasn't as lucky as Stone Monkey Sun Qi, who encountered a group of Cross-arm Monkeys with spatial talents, but he was also a Cross-arm Monkey with a mutated bloodline that Ghost Douluo had helped find.
A black iron sheen seemed to flow through his arms, seeping into his flesh and blood.
Tongbi Fist harnesses all forces exerted upon his arms, including the energy of his other Spirit Skills.
Every practice session was an opportunity to further develop his Iron Arm Spirit Skills.
Twin Sun Qi had previously refined the scope of his first Spirit Skill, Iron Arm, from skin as hard as steel to arms as hard as steel. The flowing black iron sheen could penetrate his flesh and blood, strengthening any part of his arms at any moment, making them as strong as steel while still allowing for normal arm movements.
Now, as the evil fire and another stubborn yin force erupted simultaneously within his arms, the black iron power coursing through his arms suddenly merged with both forces.
Twin Sun Qi cursed inwardly.
"Oh no!" He cursed.
"How could this evil fire find his spirit?" He knew it must have been Ju Douluo's doing. The combined medicinal properties of the many other herbs in the nutritious meal were likely channeling medicinal properties to fill the gaps in his spirit.
If used within the major sects, this would be considered a secret medicine.
Even within the Spirit Hall, it's undoubtedly a high-level pharmacological combination.
But using it on Whale Glue would be downright fatal!
Ju Douluo undoubtedly knew this, so he countered the evil fire with another stubborn force of yin and yang demonic energy. This way, the two forces would sink into the spirit. While difficult to digest, they wouldn't cause any side effects.
Of course, this all presupposes proper digestion.
The Soul Master must redouble their efforts to assimilate this yin and yang energy within the spirit. Otherwise, if it accumulates too much, it will gradually accumulate and become toxic.
Twin Sun Qi had no time for further thought. His mind was now preoccupied with digesting the yin and yang medicinal power. He swung his fists furiously, drawing on the black iron power of his Tongbi Fist to absorb both forces.
Since he couldn't escape the fusion, he frantically absorbed both forces, completely transforming them into his own.
His arms turned a crimson red.
Tempered by the yin and yang forces, the Black Iron Power began to rapidly transform.
Ju Douluo's eyes lit up as he observed the transformation of Twin Sun Qi's arms.
Bibi Dong and Ghost Douluo also set their sights on Twin Sun Qi.
Ju Douluo had, of course, reported the development of this nutritious meal to Bibi Dong, so she knew full well that the better the meal was absorbed, the greater the benefits to the spirit would be.
Ghost Douluo needed no further explanation; his best friend knew everything.
Twin Sun Qi could sense a change in his first Spirit Ring, and the Black Iron Power within him gradually took on a bronze hue as it was tempered by the yin and yang forces.
