Chapter 384 Recording the Awakening of the Martial Soul
When Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina and Wang Sheng arrived at Nottingham Square, the area was already crowded with people.
Fortunately, civilian students and part-time students had occupied their seats early, allowing them to squeeze to the front.
In Notting City, the place where the Spirit Hall helps the city's eligible children awaken their spirits is not inside the Spirit Hall, but on the square.
After all, parents will be present when helping children of school age to awaken their martial spirits. If the location is set in the Spirit Hall, with the population of Notting City being much larger than that of a small village in the countryside, the number of children of school age will exceed two hundred every year, and their parents will have to block the perimeter of the Spirit Hall.
In order to avoid traffic congestion, Matthew No placed the location for awakening martial souls in the center of the square in Notting City, and the mayor of Notting City would also lead a team to maintain order.
In the past, it was Xiao Lang who maintained order.
But now——
But the man became Romanak.
However, the people in the city were quite fond of Romanyak. After all, Romanyak had always been very friendly to the people. Now that he had become the city lord, he had reduced the city's taxes by nearly 40%, so that everyone applauded and praised him.
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Mashuno released his martial spirit and spirit rings, one white and one yellow, which silenced the noisy crowd around him.
This is not a fear of Matthew's strength, but a heartfelt respect for Matthew himself.
Although Mashunuo had not accomplished anything great in Notting City, he was kind and sincere, and was quite familiar with the people in the city. Even among the parents present, most of them had been helped by Mashunuo to awaken their martial spirits when he was young! Today, their children still need Mashunuo to help them awaken their martial spirits!
"Martial Soul Awakening Ceremony! Start now!"
Immediately afterwards, Mashuno let the first child enter the awakening stone circle that had already been set up.
Unlike Su Yuntao who only brought six awakening stones at the beginning, the number of awakening stones used by Mashuno for awakening people reached thirty-six.
This also confirms Zhou Qing's previous conjecture that the function of each awakening stone is actually the same. Using multiple awakening stones together can effectively help soul masters save soul power while maximizing the effect.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing patted Romantina on the shoulder, signaling her that it was time to change people.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm came online in an instant, using the skills of mental detection and mental sharing. After Romantina herself mastered the power of the aura, when she used her soul skills, the soul ring did not have to be fully revealed. It could be allowed to float on the inside of the brain, that is, the periphery of the brain inside the skull.
This is a phenomenon that can only be achieved by soul masters like Zhou Qing and Romantina, whose martial souls can overlap with the organs in the body.
As for other soul masters who want to release soul ring skills without revealing their soul rings, perhaps they can only do so if their soul power level reaches above level 95 and they have a sufficient understanding of their martial souls.
Case: Jian Douluo! When he used the Seven Killing Sword, he was able to integrate the nine soul rings into the sword body, so that the soul rings would not be revealed!
With the spirit sharing skill, Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu clearly saw the situation detected by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm:
After the golden light penetrated into the child's body, it touched the barrier of the Soul Palace, causing ripples to appear.
Then——
Wave!
In the dark, Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and other people and soul beasts who were able to see this process heard the sound coming from the Soul Palace.
After that——
The Soul Palace shattered, but the fragments turned into something like mist, gradually dissipated, and disappeared from the sight of Zhou Qing and others. Even the mental power of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm could no longer detect its specific traces.
However, Zhou Qing keenly noticed one thing, that is, after those fragments turned into mist, the process of dissipation did not seem to dissipate directly, but spread to the meridians of the human body.
Based on this, can we make a guess:
After the Soul Palace was shattered, did it not dissipate, but instead attached itself to the human body's veins in another form, becoming a bridge for communication between humans and martial souls?
This makes sense, why humans can perceive the martial soul through meditation, and thus sense the way the martial soul drives the innate soul power to circulate in the corresponding meridians.
It is precisely because the Soul Palace is attached to the meridians around the human body in another form that a bridge of communication and connection is created between the two.
"Did you get the desired result?" asked Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.
"Only one. Too little data."
When it comes to collecting data, the more the better.
If Romantina's soul power level had not been low and her brain martial soul had not yet grown, the data of these nearly two hundred children of school age would have to be recorded.
When the data on the 93rd child was collected, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm returned the body to Romantina.
Because the data and information collected subsequently were mostly similar, and Romantina's body was occupied by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm for a long time, and the two skills of mental detection and mental sharing were used for a long time, causing her meridians to feel swollen and painful all over her body, and she could only recover by resting.
Fortunately, the conditions presented by these ninety-three children at the moment of their martial spirit awakening were enough for Zhou Qing to confirm his previous guess.
The Soul Palace is the place where martial souls are nurtured. When the baby takes its first breath, it establishes a connection with the air, the energy of heaven and earth, and even the entire world, so that the martial soul seeds inherited from the parents form a womb-like shape in another space parallel to the material world and transform into the Soul Palace.
The Soul Palace can actively use the baby's instinctive breathing to intercept the energy of heaven and earth contained in the air inhaled into the baby's body, thereby nourishing the martial soul seed and making it condense.
When the baby grows to about six years old, the martial soul has grown enough to be "born". If this birth period is missed, it will die in the womb.
The moment the martial soul is "born", that is, awakened -
There might be a possibility of awakening on its own, but if there is no golden light emitted by the awakening stone, I am afraid that the martial soul itself will need to break through the soul palace...
[From this perspective, the role of the Awakening Stone and the golden light spots it emits is similar to performing a "Caesarean section" on a martial soul? ]
Thinking of this, Zhou Qing did not dismiss it as a distraction. After all, it was really similar to a caesarean section.
Without this "Caesarean section", I'm afraid most of the martial spirits would be "stillborn" because they can't awaken on their own...
Back to the point.
When the martial soul awakens, the soul palace that nurtures it is not useless, but is transformed into another invisible, intangible, and imperceptible existence, which is integrated into the human body's meridians, allowing human mental power to sense the existence of the martial soul through this medium.
"If you describe it this way, it feels a bit similar to the nine invisible pipes between the martial soul and the spirit ring." Tang San pondered, "Those nine pipes that connect the martial soul and the spirit ring are also invisible and intangible in nature. It is possible that they are a circle of membrane or something like that formed by the joint action of the martial soul and the spirit ring."
