章 21: Yin-Yang complimentary soul core technique
Wang Lin and Di Tian arrived at a clearing. Behind them were the other Great Beasts of Star Dou: Xiong Li, Bi Ji, the three-headed mastiff, and two more spirit beasts in human form.
"Before you can learn the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core Technique, there is an alternative. You must first learn the Soul Resonance Technique," said Di Tian, placing a hand on Wang Lin's torso and using his spiritual sense to observe his body.
"It is as I suspected. You are already using Soul Resonance intuitively, although your application of it is crude. Let me teach you," Di Tian said as he began instructing Wang Lin in the method of the Soul Resonance Technique.
Wang Lin learned quickly. Using his newfound knowledge, he controlled his poison soul core and blood essence core, reducing the chances of an explosion. After seeing Wang Lin's progress, Di Tian continued with another lesson.
"Now that you know the Soul Resonance Technique, let me teach you the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core Technique. There are many ways to have two soul cores, but among them, the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core Technique is the strongest. It also has an advantage that other techniques don't: if you create your soul cores using this method, there is a possibility of forming a third soul core," said Di Tian.
"But there is a catch. When using the Yin-Yang Complementary Technique, you must split your spiritual and soul power completely. In the case of your poison soul core, there are traces of your spiritual power. If you want to utilize the Yin-Yang Complementary Technique, you must destroy both your soul and blood essence cores and recreate them," Di Tian explained.
"If it were a human, destroying their soul core would kill them. However, a spirit beast's body can withstand the force created by the destruction of a soul core. Even though it will be painful, there is a chance of success. What do you think? Do you want to learn the Yin-Yang Complementary Technique?" asked Di Tian.
"If you say it's painful, I will pass for now. Teach me the technique—you never know, I might change my mind one day," replied Wang Lin.
"Even though I'm disappointed, it is wise not to hastily attempt to destroy your soul cores. It is lucky that you somehow managed to create your soul core with resonance, which should be impossible for a spirit beast's physique. I wouldn't bet on your survival after destroying them. Let me teach you the technique as the Lord instructed," said Di Tian, as he taught the method of the Yin-Yang Complementary Technique.
"Bastard! You should have told me this crucial information before asking me to decide. Phew, luckily my aversion to pain saved me this time," Wang Lin thought to himself.
"Now that you have learned the Yin-Yang Complementary Soul Core Technique, it is time to learn the most prized possession of our Black Dragon Clan: the Dragon Claw Technique, bestowed upon us by the Dragon God," said Di Tian.
"Even though I'm reluctant to teach this technique to a snake with only a trace of dragon blood, if the Lord commands it, I cannot disobey. Now, look closely," said Di Tian.
Di Tian, who was in human form, transformed into his majestic black dragon form, floating in the air. His front claw shone with a rainbow brilliance, infused with soul power of multiple elements. As Di Tian displayed the Dragon Claw Technique, Wang Lin began to feel a pressure unlike anything he had experienced—even greater than the suppression of Gu Yuena.
Due to the nature of Wang Lin's soul being human, he could reduce the blood suppression of the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, to a minimum. But now, facing the power of the Dragon Claw Technique, something within his blood beckoned him to submit.
All the other Great Beasts of Star Dou transformed back into their spirit beast forms at the display of the Dragon Claw Technique. Bi Ji transformed into a beautiful emerald-green swan; Xiong Li became an enormous bear with metallic claws; the green-haired man transformed into a demonic tree; the purple-haired lady into a purple-scaled dragon; and the three-headed mastiff remained unchanged. All the spirit beasts knelt in submission to the Dragon Claw Technique, a representation of the Dragon God's power.
Wang Lin, however, was an exception. Facing the full brunt of the aura, he remained standing, defying the Black Dragon.
"I underestimated you. It seems the Lord was correct in her assumption—you are somewhat capable if you can withstand this pressure," said Di Tian, eyeing Wang Lin.
"Now that the demonstration is finished, let me show you how the technique is accomplished," said Di Tian, as he began teaching the Dragon Claw Technique.
The lesson continued for hours. For Wang Lin, it was a new experience, as he learned about dragon physiology, meridians, soul power circulation, and more.
"Now that you have learned the theory, it's time to apply it. Weren't you in a hurry to leave Star Dou? The fastest way to learn any technique is through combat. Look at your fellow beasts—they will help you learn the technique through fighting. You said you could learn it in a couple of days, so let's see if you can manage that after fighting them for a couple of days," said Di Tian, flying away.
Xiong Li and the other beasts looked at Wang Lin menacingly. Meanwhile, Bi Ji gave him a pitying look.
"I warned you repeatedly to watch what you said. Now look at the trouble you've got yourself into," she said.
"It's okay, Bi Ji. It's not a problem. My body has been itching to let loose since forming my blood essence core. There's no way I can't handle them," said Wang Lin confidently.
"If you're that confident, let's do it," said Xiong Li, marching toward him. He wasn't alone—along with him, the other Great Beasts also moved to surround Wang Lin.
"You bastards! This is cheating. It isn't fair to fight all of you at once!" shouted Wang Lin.
"Hang on, Wang Lin! I'll heal you after the fight!" cheered Bi Ji from a distance.
Thus began the group beating of Wang Lin, which lasted for three whole days.
