Chapter 571: Dual Origin
The condensation of Fruit Positions and promotion to Venerable.
The choice of this first Fruit Position is very important; the first Fruit Position condensed is also called the Origin Fruit Position.
Subsequent Fruit Positions will grow based on the Origin Fruit Position.
The Origin Fruit Position is also the core of a Venerable’s strength, or rather, their weakness. If the Origin Fruit Position is destroyed, this Spirit Master will directly fall out of the Venerable Realm, and years of hard training will be destroyed in one fell swoop.
In addition,
When condensing Fruit Positions, one can choose to use Spirit Robes as fruits, or to use Spirit Artifacts as fruits.
However, generally speaking, Spirit Masters with slightly higher Spirit Artifact levels and extremely high cultivation talent will choose to use Spirit Artifacts as fruits when condensing their fifth Fruit Position.
After all, the fifth Fruit Position greatly enhances strength, far more than the previous four, and has a significant evolutionary effect on Spirit Artifacts.
Xia Feng naturally planned to use his A-class Spirit Artifact to form a fruit during the condensation of his fifth Fruit Position.
For the first Origin Fruit Position, it mainly depends on Miss Mu’s idea.
He is just someone tagging along, he has no say.
Well, but on the surface, he is still extremely arrogant.
“Miss Mu, hurry up, this place is not safe to linger. We should go.”
Xia Feng walked to the side of the black-dressed woman and patted her slender shoulder.
Although Jin Yanghong had left, it was impossible to guarantee that he wouldn’t suddenly notice something was wrong and come back.
If the four of them were still here, they would truly be caught in a trap.
Mu Qingtong nodded thoughtfully after turning the last page, then set fire to burn all the paper materials.
This was also Feng Jiany’s request.
The materials contained some basic research on “transportation force.” Although even if this information leaked, no one could research anything with just this information.
But Feng Jiany, to be safe, still asked Xia Feng to destroy all the materials.
This was to prevent someone with even greater Spirit Science talent than him, Feng Jiany, from appearing and creating another Collapsing Stone Slab.
From this point of view, Feng Jiany was quite humble, knowing that there were always people better than him, but unfortunately, he was still not cautious enough.
He actually believed that Xia Feng and the other three would keep their promise.
Of course, Xia Feng and the other three did keep their promise, but Feng Jiany didn’t say they couldn’t quickly flip through the materials for a minute before burning them, did he?
Perhaps Feng Jiany actually thought that Xia Feng and the other three would secretly read these materials, but he most likely thought that even if they read them, they wouldn’t understand them, let alone be interested.
However, among Xia Feng and the other three, not only was someone interested, but they all understood.
“Let’s go.”
As Mu Qingtong said softly, Xia Feng used the Shadow of the Blood Fiend to scour the laboratory. Then, he activated the Sacred Knight · Capsule Ship to break through the seabed barrier and float up towards the dark ocean current above.
“Miss Mu, which Spirit Robe are you planning to choose as your Origin Fruit Position?”
Xia Feng handed Mu Qingtong a Sky-Mending Stone Embryo and a Life Origin Stone, helping her complete the last missing Spirit Materials.
Now, the two of them possessed four A-class Spirit Robes: Musashi Tengu, God King Statue, Blood Spirit Throne, and Blood Spirit Construct.
The God King Statue had stringent usage conditions, requiring the user to be a believer of a certain god, and only after consuming the extremely rare Divine Faith Fruit could the god’s authority be activated.
After learning this Spirit Robe on Witch Island, Xia Feng had barely used it because he never obtained the Divine Faith Fruit.
As for the Blood Spirit Throne and Blood Spirit Construct, the former could create Blood Spirit Incarnations using blood, while the latter could control targets using blood.
When combined, they could form a fusion skill – Throne Construct. This fusion skill was the strongest and most practical ability, greatly amplifying combat power.
Mu Qingtong hesitated for a moment, then said softly, “Throne Construct. Mr. Xia, I suggest you also choose Blood Spirit Construct and Blood Spirit Throne to condense a Dual Origin.”
Dual Origin? Xia Feng was slightly shocked. Wait, there was such a thing? I’ve never heard of it!
However, it was easy to understand from the literal meaning: at the moment of condensing the Origin Fruit Position, two A-class Spirit Robes’ Spirit Particle Structures would be perfectly constructed simultaneously and merged into one fruit.
One fruit, Dual Origin.
If successful, two A-class Spirit Robes could be strengthened simultaneously.
In theory, such synergistic Spirit Robes were indeed feasible, but the difficulty coefficient was outrageously high, and the risk was more than ten times that of normal promotion to Venerable.
One could fall into a state of Spirit Base collapse and complete annihilation at any moment.
But Xia Feng… was no longer afraid!
Well, mainly because he had no other choice.
!
“Dual Origin, huh? Alright,” Xia Feng said with a faint smile. “Let’s choose this one.”
Mu Qingtong nodded. “In terms of combat power amplification, condensing Fruit Positions this way is the most practical. The drawback is that to realize its full potential, you, Mr. Xia, will need to stay by my side forever—”
“Let me correct you, Miss Mu. It’s you who needs to stay by my side forever, not me by your side.”
“Don’t interrupt, just listen to me properly.”
“…Alright, speak.”
“Every time a Fruit Position is condensed, a ritual is required based on the characteristics of the A-class Spirit Robe. Condensing a Dual Origin requires two [Fruit Condensing Rituals]. This is one of the troublesome parts.”
“The second troublesome part is that in the months after your death, I investigated the Astronomical Bureau and have completely confirmed that the two of us have been defined by the Empire as the Sirius, destined to destroy the world.”
Mu Qingtong stared seriously at Xia Feng’s black eyes. “Every time we advance in rank, a Sirius will appear and twinkle in the Astral Realm. Although we don’t know why the other one disappeared after only twinkling once, it is certain that one of us is that twinkling Sirius.
Once we become Venerables, Sirius will shine again, and its brilliance will be unprecedented, inevitably attracting the attention of the Empire.”
Hearing Mu Qingtong’s explanation, Xia Feng was shocked. Something like this happened?
The Astronomical Bureau had been monitoring the two of them by observing the Astral Realm?
If that was the case, it was indeed troublesome.
“No one knows if the Empire has any other means of locating and surrounding Sirius.”
Mu Qingtong said in a deep voice, “If we are to become Venerables, we must ensure that the Empire cannot find us this time. Or, we must have absolute strength to guarantee that we can easily escape encirclement when attacked again, and not be as passive as last time.”
Xia Feng fell into contemplation. If he wanted to achieve Venerable status in a safe location, the Evil Dragon Space was undoubtedly the first choice.
However, he was unsure of the Empire’s high-level tracking methods and whether they would expose the fact that Miss Evil Dragon had awakened.
But since Miss Evil Dragon’s eighth-generation remnant spirit was Her Majesty the Empress, then the Empire’s high-level officials should already know about Miss Evil Dragon’s awakening, right?
Unless, for some reason, Her Majesty the Empress had not informed anyone else.
As they conversed, Xia Feng had already controlled the Capsule Ship to float from ten thousand meters under the sea to the sea surface. After a while, it drifted to the edge of the beach.
The city skyline, constructed from towering buildings and aerial airships, came into view. Airships were adorned with dazzling advertising signs, and the city’s nightscape was prosperous under the moonlight.
This was Li Tian City.
