The crowd dispersed. They were all staying in this building, each with their own room. Yun Ze's room was on the fifth floor. The layout was simple, and the only decorations were probably the various books on the shelves. He had a lot of books in his room; two bookshelves were completely filled, probably totaling over two hundred books. They covered a wide range of topics, including soul beasts, Martial Souls, soul tools, mechs, Battle Armor, and continental history. To understand this world, reading was undoubtedly a good way. Through reading, he now understood this world even better than the people who lived in it. For the past seven years, because he couldn't cultivate, he spent most of his time reading, and some time guiding soul beasts. He sat cross-legged on the relatively empty floor of his room and took out the purple soul spirit orb. The phoenix appeared behind him, spreading its wings and crying out. Blazing flames burned fiercely, slightly distorting the air. He controlled the temperature of the flames well, confining them within a half-meter radius centered around his body, preventing them from spreading outwards. There were many wooden objects in the room, and if the temperature of over a thousand degrees spread, the entire room would ignite. He reached his hand into the purple soul spirit orb, feeling a warm, moist sensation. The touch of this Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird soul spirit was like warm water. The Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird was released, flapping its wings and hovering in front of Yun Ze. Its nine heads were lowered, and its body was trembling. In front of the phoenix, the Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird lowered its proud head, without even the slightest thought of resistance. "Chirp!" The phoenix cried out, and with a 흡 towards the Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird, the latter turned into a ball of flame and entered its abdomen. Energy entered his body, and Yun Ze immediately began to circulate his Soul Power to refine it. The process was not difficult. Not only did the Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird not resist, but it also actively merged with Yun Ze. Its cultivation of over seventeen hundred years did not cause Yun Ze any trouble. Half an hour later, Yun Ze successfully merged with the soul spirit. A dozen seconds later, two purple soul rings of the same color rose from the ground one after another. After the soul rings appeared, Yun Ze's cultivation also broke through, increasing directly from level twenty to level twenty-one. This was one of the disadvantages of breaking through with soul spirits. The energy from two soul rings of over seventeen hundred years should theoretically have been enough to increase his Soul Power by more than two levels.
However, the actual energy provided to Yun Ze by the two soul rings was only that of over seventeen hundred years, which was the energy of the soul spirit itself.
This was understandable. After all, the soul spirit only had that much energy; it couldn't just appear out of thin air.
With a thought, a ball of flame light appeared out of thin air in front of him. Its shape changed, and the figure of the Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird appeared.
"Chirp chirp chirp..." As soon as it appeared, the miniature Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird excitedly chirped at Yun Ze, very affectionately.
However, it didn't dare to approach Yun Ze casually. The aura on the latter instinctively made it fearful, and it needed to maintain a distance.
After letting the Blazing Fire Nine-Headed Bird stay outside for a while, Yun Ze put it away. He wasn't in a hurry to get up and carefully felt the changes in himself.
At the same time, he tried to circulate the Immortal Phoenix Legacy Art. This was his main cultivation technique before, the strongest secret scripture of the phoenix race.
As he circulated it, the surrounding world's Soul Power quickly gathered and surged into his body.
This speed of absorbing Soul Power was much faster than that of those Soul Elders, far exceeding the cultivation speed of a level twenty-one Great Soul Master.
After cultivating for ten minutes, Yun Ze temporarily stopped, opened his eyes, and showed a look of disappointment on his face.
It was too slow. The energy in this world was too thin, completely failing to show the effect of the Immortal Phoenix Legacy Art.
This was like putting a hundred-meter diameter water pipe into a nearly dry river. There was only so much water, and no matter how strong the water pipe's ability was, it could only extract that much, completely failing to exert the proper function of this powerful water pipe.
Moreover, his Soul Power was too weak, providing limited power to the water pipe, which resulted in an unsatisfactory speed of absorbing Soul Power.
At this time, Yun Ze's Immortal Phoenix Legacy Art was in this awkward situation, being overqualified while also being unable to exert its full strength.
Yun Ze quickly suppressed his disappointment. If the speed was slow, then so be it. It was already a fact, so he could only accept it.
"Huh?" Just as he was about to continue cultivating and consolidate this improvement, he felt an unusual movement from his heart.
"Ancient Dragon Life Pearl!" After carefully sensing it, Yun Ze confirmed the source of the unusual movement.
Yun Ze could clearly feel a warm current flowing from his heart, gradually moving towards his brain.
He subconsciously wanted to stop it, but in the end, he didn't make a move and let the energy flow into his mind.
After the warm current entered his brain, a large amount of information surged out, and a swelling sensation came. Yun Ze felt like his brain was going to explode from being expanded.
He didn't cry out in pain, nor did he lose control due to the pain. His expression remained as usual, and he endured this uncomfortable swelling sensation.
Half an hour later, this feeling disappeared. Yun Ze couldn't wait to comprehend this vast amount of information.
It took him a full hour to sort out this information, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Chaos Ancient Dragon Scripture.
The information that surged into his mind was a cultivation technique called the Chaos Ancient Dragon Scripture. This was the supreme heart method of the Chaos Ancient Dragon race.
Its level was the same as his Immortal Phoenix Legacy Art, a peerless secret scripture of the dragon race, and also one of the seven great supreme techniques in the Immortal Realm.
"I finally got you." Even with Yun Ze's temperament, he was ecstatic about this at this moment.
Dragon and phoenix singing together, dominating the universe. Once he merged the two supreme techniques into one, he could create a supreme technique that surpassed the Immortal Emperor.
At that time, he could use this to break through to a realm above the Immortal Emperor, detach from heaven and earth, and become the only strong person throughout the ages.
That was the realm he had been pursuing. Before, he was always half a step away. Now, this half step might be crossed, how could he not be happy?
Yun Ze was Yun Ze after all. He didn't stay excited for long before calming his emotions and beginning to comprehend the Chaos Ancient Dragon Scripture.
The difficulty in comprehending the Chaos Ancient Dragon Scripture was comparable to the Immortal Phoenix Legacy Art. With the experience gained from comprehending the latter, understanding the former became much easier.
As someone who was once an Immortal Emperor, Yun Ze's comprehension ability was naturally exceptional. He quickly figured out the cultivation method for the initial chapter.
He was surprised to find that there were many common points in the initial chapter. Could it be that these two cultivation techniques were actually one?
"If they are truly one, then merging them will be much easier," Yun Ze thought to himself.
He began cultivating the initial chapters of both techniques simultaneously, using his mind for two purposes. He controlled them perfectly, preventing any conflict between them.
The realm of the cultivation technique was also affected by the cultivator's strength; the two were synchronized.
Currently, Yun Ze was cultivating here, and the progress of the cultivation technique was basically zero. At this rate, even cultivating for a thousand years would likely not yield much progress.
Yun Ze was not surprised by this. He had long known that the progress would be slow to the point of being negligible, but he still circulated the cultivation technique.
It wasn't for the sake of the technique's realm, but to enhance his own understanding of the technique, preparing for when he left this world.
It was worth mentioning that simultaneously circulating both techniques increased Yun Ze's speed of absorbing Soul Power, which was already comparable to a high-level Soul King.
