It took Zhu Zhuqing two years to be tempered into a spirit body by Lin Jie. Ning Rongrong is still in a semi-spiritual state.
Initially, it took so long because Lin Jie lacked strength and control over his soul power. Now, Lin Jie has mastered distraction control, which has icing on the cake. His soul power control is now very precise, and his strength is also very strong.
For a Soul King or below, Lin Jie only needs one month to temper his physique into a spirit body. Two months for a Soul Emperor. Four months for a Soul Sage, six months for a Soul Douluo, and within a year for a Titled Douluo. Lin Jie is confident that he can temper his physique into a spirit body.
"You can really double the cultivation speed of a Titled Douluo," Bibi Dong said solemnly.
Lin Jie's words shocked her. What a concept! Doubling the cultivation speed of a Titled Douluo!
"Teacher, I'm absolutely certain. However, tempering a spirit body isn't something that can be accomplished overnight. With my current strength and precise control of soul power, it would take at least a year to temper a Titled Douluo's special spirit body."
Bibi Dong suppressed her shock, calmed down, and said calmly, "Well, you can continue."
Lin Jie felt a pity when Bibi Dong showed no interest.
Lin Jie had speculated about Bibi Dong's current strength. Based on some estimates, Bibi Dong should have already begun the Rakshasa Divine Exam, with soul power at least above level 95, a Super Douluo. His lack of interest was understandable.
"Teacher, I just said that besides the immortal herbs and my spirit, lightning, there's also soul power that can change a person's aptitude."
"Soul power is the most magical energy in this world. A soul master relies on soul power for everything. Without soul power, a soul master has lost everything. However, soul masters in this world generally only use soul power as a vehicle for using soul skills. They value soul skills more than soul power. This has become a common mindset on the continent. Teacher, is it the same?"
Bibi Dong thought for a moment and nodded in response to Lin Jie's question.
She realized that although she also cultivated soul power, most of the time, she used it solely for the purpose of using soul skills. She had never considered anything more than that. The stronger the soul power, the more powerful the soul skills she could use. But the purpose was always to use soul skills.
"This is the key point I want to make. The soul masters on the mainland are under the inertia of thinking. They always think about using soul power to use soul skills, but they have never thought about using soul power to temper the body cells. When I was using lightning to temper my body, I once experimented with using soul power to temper my body, and the effect was similar to my lightning body tempering. It's just that the effect is not as good as my lightning body tempering."
"However, this soul power body tempering technique is not something that ordinary people can use. He must first have precise control over soul power. Because the ultimate goal of tempering is to temper the body's cells and enhance cell activity. Therefore, the control of soul power must be very precise."
"Teacher, do you know the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's method of distraction control?"
"Of course I know this. This method is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's secret. The reason why they became the number one auxiliary soul master on the mainland is inseparable from this distraction control."
"Indeed, this distraction control method allows a spirit master to achieve exquisite control over their spirit power. If the disciples of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect possessed my spirit power forging method, their cultivation speed and strength would soar. But unfortunately, they don't."
"Teacher, did you know that I once considered creating a different cultivation system?"
"Another cultivation system."
"Yes, a different cultivation system than the one where spirit masters must absorb spirit rings. In this world, spirit masters must hunt spirit beasts to break through every time they reach level ten. But if this continues for a long time, in decades, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, the spirit beasts will eventually be hunted to extinction. What will happen then, soul masters without spirit beasts?"
At this point, Lin Jie's eyes flashed with enthusiasm as he stood up from his seat.
Bibi Dong, noticing Lin Jie's state, didn't interrupt him. She was shocked. She hadn't expected Lin Jie to think so far ahead, and it was something she had never considered before.
"At this time, I thought of a soul power cultivation system, one that doesn't require soul rings or the hunting of soul beasts."
"Soul power is the most magical energy in the world."
"As for soul skills, why do you have to hunt soul beasts to acquire soul skills? Why can't you create your own?"
"Like me, although I have soul skills, I have more self-created soul skills than I can from hunting soul beasts."
"Hunt a soul beast and you only gain one soul skill, but create your own, and you'll have countless soul skills. But most people are foolish. They never think of creating their own soul skills, only of acquiring them by hunting soul beasts. They never realize that self-created soul skills are the most suitable for them."
Unconsciously, Lin Jie had already scolded Bibi Dong.
At this point, Lin Jie seemed to be getting a little fanatical, completely ignoring Bibi Dong's status as the Pope. He spoke with increasing enthusiasm.
As if he had finally found an outlet, Lin Jie unleashed all his thoughts on Bibi Dong.
As a suitable listener, Bibi Dong did not interrupt Lin Jie. The more she listened, the more shocked she was.
She had not expected Lin Jie to have such high ambitions. You know, the soul master's training system of hunting soul beasts has existed on the continent since ancient times. Now suddenly someone came to tell her that he wanted to change such a training system and create another one. How could she not be shocked. Moreover, this person was the disciple she had just accepted.
After an unknown amount of time, Lin Jie, who was a little dry-mouthed, stopped talking. Completely disregarding Bibi Dong's identity, he picked up the tea on the table and drank it.
Bibi Dong saw Lin Jie directly picked up her cup of tea and drank it, and her face showed a strange color. But she didn't think too much.
"I'm sorry, teacher. I got a little carried away."
"It's okay, I didn't expect you to have such an ambition. I support you. However, if you really want to accomplish such a thing, it will be very difficult. Because the practice of soul masters hunting soul beasts for cultivation has existed on the continent since ancient times, and it is difficult to change." Bibi Dong said frankly.
"I know, have I ever thought about changing it all of a sudden? Moreover, my current system is not yet complete. I still need to conduct more in-depth research. This is also one of the reasons why I joined the Spirit Hall."
"Don't worry, you are my disciple. You can read any books in the Spirit Hall. I am also looking forward to the release of your cultivation system."
"Well, thank you, teacher. Teacher, I want to ask you something." Lin Jie said solemnly.
"Well, tell me."
"Have you ever thought about unifying the continent."
"What did you say?" Bibi Dong exclaimed.
"Eliminate the two empires and unify the continent."
Bibi Dong's eyes fixed. She did have such an idea. But she didn't expect Lin Jie to have the same idea.
Bibi Dong calmed down and said, "Tell me what you think."
"Teacher, you know I was born in the Tiandou Empire. My father and mother are both commoners. When I was very young, I went out with my parents once. In Tiandou City, just because we were walking on the road, the royal family of the Tiandou Empire happened to be traveling, and my father blocked their way. They actually beat my father so badly that he died. If it weren't for Sister Erlong's rescue, perhaps my mother and my younger sister would have died. The revenge for killing my father must be avenged, so I swore at that time that I must make the royal family of the Tiandou Empire pay the price. When I grew up, the more I understood, the more I discovered the ugliness of this world. The gap between the nobles and the common people is serious. The nobles are the common people. The tribe never treated civilians as human beings. And on the continent, wars often broke out between empires. So, I thought about how to unify the continent and then carry out reforms. Then, I saw the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall is excellent and powerful. It is currently the strongest force on the continent and the one with the greatest hope of unifying the continent. And teacher, you must have thought about unifying the continent too."
Bibi Dong said frankly: "Yes, I did have such thoughts, but I didn't expect you to see it."
She believed that many people across the continent had long seen the Spirit Hall's ambitions, and with Lin Jie's intelligence, there was no reason why he couldn't see it.
At this moment, Bibi Dong suddenly thought of the second dragon that Lin Jie had just mentioned. "Could it be Liu Erlong?" Or maybe it was just a coincidence. "
Since Teacher has such thoughts, I wonder if I could offer some suggestions?"
"Yes, of course. You are my disciple now. Feel free to share any ideas with me."
"Since you want to unify the continent, changes must be made."
"Oh, what kind of changes?"
"The Spirit Hall is essentially a religion, governing a small group of Spirit Masters. Ninety-five percent of the continent is civilians. Having Spirit Masters governing civilians is not feasible. Therefore, we must establish our own empire. A Spirit Empire. Only in this way can we better realize the dream of unifying the continent."
Upon hearing Lin Jie's words, Bibi Dong quickly sat up straight, her curvaceous figure becoming even more upright, drawing Lin Jie's involuntarily a second glance, but he quickly looked away.
Bibi Dong naturally noticed his departing expression and smiled, unconcerned.
What concerned her was what Lin Jie had just said: establishing a Spirit Empire. She had always harbored this idea.
Only in this way could she break free from Qian Daoliu's constraints. As long as she remained the Pope of the Spirit Hall, she would remain under Qian Daoliu's control.
But if she founded an empire, she would definitely control it in her own hands and not let Qian Daoliu get involved.
She didn't expect that Lin Jie's ideas coincided with hers!
