Chapter 156
Li Su needed to accumulate between 500 and 5689 points of Build God Energy to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. The minimum requirement was 500 points, while the upper limit was 5689. The number 5689 represented the amount of Build God Energy Li Su needed to create the most potent Nascent Soul.
Why isn’t it a whole number? Li Su pondered. Soon, he comprehended the reason. The fractional value resulted from specific portions within the Divine Building Energy that enhanced the soul. The Nascent Soul transformation involved merging the Nascent Soul with the soul or spirit to shape it into a Nascent Divinity. Like Golden Cores and Nascent Souls, Nascent Divinities of the same level exhibited varying qualities.
Li Su had fortified his soul but had not focused excessively on further strengthening it. The 5689 points of Divine Building Energy encompassed a portion dedicated to enhancing the soul.
The specific allocation of Divine Building Energy was as follows:
- Cultivation gains: 1 year of cultivation equaled 1 point of Divine Building Energy.
- Experience gains: 2 points of experience equaled 1 point of Divine Building Energy.
- At least 40% of the Divine Building Energy needed to come from experience.
In contrast to the upper limits of the Elemental Spirit and Elemental Infant, top-tier Elemental Spirits displayed exceptional potential. Additionally, progress in soul cultivation was not strongly linked to one’s spiritual roots. A cultivator with a first-grade spiritual root might not necessarily excel in soul cultivation compared to others. However, joining a renowned sect could provide access to powerful techniques and soul-enhancing elixirs, giving them a significant advantage.
From Li Su’s perspective, constructing an Elemental Spirit with 2000 points of Divine Building Energy would be remarkable. If he amassed the full 5689 points, the Elemental Spirit he created would likely be the most potent in history. Even a first-grade Golden Core, aided by a first-grade spiritual root, might not compare to it. The potential of an Elemental Spirit was significantly higher due to its fluctuating upper limit.
Li Su was determined not to settle for less. If he aimed for Divine Transformation, he aspired to become the most formidable Divine Transformer in history. Having over five thousand points of Divine Building Energy wasn’t considered a substantial amount. Although the energy required a specific proportion of experience, he needed to use experience to fortify his soul.
However, Li Su was on the brink of receiving a substantial reward. Once the grand reward for the descendants of spiritual roots breaking through 500 arrived, his Divine Building Energy would be brimming. Any excess would still be available after he attained Divine Transformation. As Divine Transformation neared, Li Su’s mood improved significantly.
At this moment, Li Su heard a sound resembling the rustling of the sea breeze. It jogged his memory, and he retrieved the conch shell from the Mermaid Bai Ling. As expected, the conch shell emitted a sound. Li Su remembered Bai Ling’s words. Did she wish to see him? It had been nearly two decades since he parted ways with the Mermaid Bai Ling. He wondered how she had fared during all these years. Her cultivation must have fully recovered by now, thanks to the resources in the Mermaid Clan. That particular clan territory had awaited her for tens of thousands of years, and perhaps her cultivation had advanced even further.
The Sunflower Water Pearls alone were extraordinary treasures, and Li Su possessed about half of them. Over the years, after marrying Liu Xinyue, Li Su had her identify numerous spiritual fruits and treasures from the sea. He had also discovered some alchemical formulas at the Danxin Sect and refined special elixirs to expedite the growth of both sisters. Achieving Divine Transformation wouldn’t be too challenging for them.Inside the conch shell, the sound persisted. Li Su wondered where Bai Ling was blowing the conch from. He picked up the conch shell and blew it, experiencing a magical connection with Bai Ling’s consciousness.
“Bai Ling?”
“Li Su, I want to see you.”
Bai Ling wishes to meet him. Li Su thought momentarily and communicated with her consciousness again, “Where?”
“You choose the location.”
“Do you know Linhai City? Let’s meet near Linhai City,” Li Su proposed.
After suggesting Linhai City as the meeting point, Li Su inquired, “Has your strength fully recovered? There are many cultivators in that area.”
“Alright, I’m in that city. I’m already nearby,” Bai Ling replied.
“I’m here. In Linhai City,” she said.
Li Su’s second visit to this place took him east of Linhai City. Flying a thousand miles, he spotted a beautiful island with a lake in the middle, a place with likely few cultivators. Li Su landed on the island and called, “Bai Ling.”
His divine sense scanned the entire island, revealing Bai Ling emerging from the lake, resembling a water lily rising from the water. She walked to the shore, and to his surprise, she had legs. Ordinary Mermaids might find it challenging, but they were all Divine Transformers now. Though her aura was deliberately concealed, as a Peak Elemental Infant cultivator, Li Su could sense the change in her aura, signifying her restored cultivation.
Even though Bai Ling had regained her cultivation, Li Su felt no emotional turbulence when facing her. As a Peak Elemental Infant cultivator, he had confidence that he could handle any potential hostility.
“How have you been?” Li Su inquired.
“It’s been tens of thousands of years, and I assume all of Bai Ling’s old acquaintances are no longer around?” he continued.
Bai Ling explained, “The North Sea Mermaids have split into several tribes. Over these years, I’ve been working on uniting these tribes.”
Li Su responded with an “Oh” and asked, “Has it been successful?”
Bai Ling revealed, “It has been relatively successful, but these tribes have one condition: they want me to become their queen, and I need to give birth to an exceptional child to prove my royal lineage.”
She gazed at Li Su with beautiful eyes and continued, “I want you to assist me with this. Let’s have a child together.”
