"Junior Brother? Junior Brother, where are you?" Hu Liena looked around nervously.
"Senior Sister, I am here..." Ling Feng's voice echoed in her mind, "I have turned into your battle armor."
Hu Liena looked down at the battle armor covering her body, and her face instantly blushed as red as an apple.
The battle armor formed by the Mo Yun Vine tightly enveloped her delicate body, showcasing captivating curves.
"This... this is too embarrassing!"
"Senior Sister, don't be shy, this is a normal phenomenon for a Martial Soul Fusion Skill," Ling Feng's voice carried a hint of pride, "Besides, look, our spirit power is completely fused."
Hu Liena carefully felt it and discovered that her spirit power had indeed undergone a massive change.
Her original Rank thirty-one spirit power had now reached around Rank forty!
"This is too amazing!" Hu Liena exclaimed.
"Try the Spirit abilities," Ling Feng suggested.
Hu Liena unleashed her First Spirit Ability, the Fox Fire Command.
This time, the flames were no longer purely red but carried black and red patterns, their power several times greater than usual!
"Wow! This power... it's simply many times stronger than my previous First Spirit Ability!"
"Second Spirit Ability, Fox Charm!"
Hu Liena unleashed her Second Spirit Ability. This time, the Charm light was no longer purely pink but carried black and red patterns. Hu Liena felt that even her mental force was several times stronger than usual.
"Junior Brother, this feeling is magical!" Hu Liena spun around excitedly, "I feel like my strength has at least doubled!"
"Senior Sister, try the Third Spirit Ability," Ling Feng suggested in her mind.
"Third Spirit Ability, Heavenly Fox Transformation!"
Instantly, the battle armor on Hu Liena's body emitted an even more dazzling light. Her aura, speed, attack power, and defense all received a massive boost.
"This... this is simply too incredible!" Hu Liena exclaimed, "I feel like I could fight ten of my previous selves right now!"
"Senior Sister, don't get too excited, be careful of spirit power consumption," Ling Feng reminded her.
Just then, a faint sound of footsteps came from the shadows.
Bibi Dong had only intended to check on the state of her two Disciples after they returned, but she never expected to witness a shocking scene the moment she reached the courtyard entrance.
Hu Liena was wearing that black and red battle armor, testing out various Spirit abilities.
That fluctuation of spirit power, that perfect coordination—this was clearly a Martial Soul Fusion Skill!
Bibi Dong stopped in her tracks, a look of surprise flashing across her purple pupils.
A Martial Soul Fusion Skill required two Spirits that were extremely similar or complementary to manifest, and it demanded extremely high tacit understanding and trust between the Spirit Masters.
Even so, the combinations of Spirit Masters who could successfully execute a Martial Soul Fusion Skill were exceedingly rare.
But now, Little Feng and Nana could actually perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill?
"How is this possible?" Bibi Dong thought to herself,
"Little Feng's Spirit is the plant-typeMagic Cloud Vine, and Nana's Spirit is the Beast SpiritCharming Fox. They are completely unrelated; logically, they shouldn't be able to generate a Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
When Bibi Dong performed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Ling Feng, she could sense that the Mo Yun Vine and his Death Spider EmperorSpirit shared a commonality: absorption.
But Hu Liena's Charming Fox and the Mo Yun Vine were somewhat baffling.
Bibi Dong carefully observed the battle armor on Hu Liena, realizing it was exactly the same as the one Ling Feng had displayed in the Supreme Pontiff Palace before.
"Could it be..." A bold idea surfaced in Bibi Dong's mind, "Little Feng's Spirit can form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with anyone?"
The moment this thought appeared, it stirred up a massive wave in Bibi Dong's heart.
If this were true, then Ling Feng's Spirit talent would be too Heaven-Defying.
One must know that across the entire Douluo Continent, the number of Spirit Master combinations capable of executing a Martial Soul Fusion Skill was countable on one's fingers; every pair was a legendary existence.
And if Ling Feng could truly form a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with anyone, his value would be immeasurable.
Bibi Dong's fists clenched involuntarily, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.
She had once attempted a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Ling Feng. That wonderful sensation of their spirit powers intertwining and their consciousness merging made her vaguely feel that between her and this child, there existed a connection deeper than that of a master and Disciple.
And now, seeing Ling Feng's Spirit attached to Hu Liena, that unique connection that should have belonged to her was actually occurring with another Spirit... This caused a monstrous wave to surge in Bibi Dong's heart. The exclusive experience that should have been hers and his could actually be replicated?
"This child..." Bibi Dong murmured softly, "is becoming more and more surprising."
Yet, even Bibi Dong herself did not realize that a trace of possessiveness was secretly rising within her heart.
This special child should remain by her side forever.
Inside the courtyard, Hu Liena was still excitedly testing the changes in various Spirit abilities.
"Junior Brother, can you control this battle armor?" Hu Liena asked curiously.
"We can try," Ling Feng replied.
The next second, Hu Liena found her body beginning to move without her control.
The vines on the battle armor started to move, executing various attack motions.
"Wow!" Hu Liena cried out, "Junior Brother, are you controlling my body?"
"Not controlling, but leading."
Ling Feng explained,
"However, you need to grant permission, Senior Sister. If you resist, I cannot force control."
Hu Liena relaxed her mind, allowing Ling Feng to completely lead the movements of the battle armor.
Hu Liena's body began to perform various high-difficulty movements—attack, defense, evasion—every move was fluid and flawless.
"Junior Brother, you are amazing!" Hu Liena praised, "This feeling is just like dancing!"
"Senior Sister, you try taking the lead too," Ling Feng said.
Hu Liena regained control of her body and discovered that her manipulation of the battle armor had become much more skillful.
"I see," Hu Liena suddenly understood, "The Martial Soul Fusion Skill can be led by either party, but it requires cooperation from the other."
"That's right, and if my spirit powerRank is higher than the other party's, I can directly gain the leading right," Ling Feng added.
Hearing this, Hu Liena thought to herself: Junior Brother is only Rank eleven now, and I am Rank thirty-one. Who knows how long it will take for his spirit power to surpass mine.
But then she reconsidered; given Junior Brother's talent, perhaps it wouldn't take many years to surpass her.
Thinking of this, a strange sense of anticipation welled up in Hu Liena's heart.
"Junior Brother, what name do you think we should give this Martial Soul Fusion Skill?" Hu Liena asked.
Ling Feng thought for a moment: "How about demon fox battle armor? Since Senior Sister is the one leading it."
"demon fox battle armor?" Hu Liena repeated, "It sounds good!"
Just as the two were chatting happily, Ling Feng suddenly felt that his spirit power consumption was too great, and he could barely sustain it.
