Douluo: System Cross-Dressing as Qian Renxue Empress Consort

"The Spine of the Abyss, quite fascinating..."

Even Li Yu couldn't help but marvel at it.

With his current spiritual power, just the 100% Earth Element affinity alone would allow him to achieve all of this.

But it wouldn't be this easy.

Moreover, under the influence of the [Spine of the Abyss], Li Yu could sense that with his current spiritual power, he could effortlessly and perfectly control the earth within a hundred-mile radius.

It was easy.

Such power was already akin to that of a "God".

However, due to the unique nature of the [Spine of the Abyss], it seemed to offer Li Yu a sense of creativity.

Thus, it did not provide any additional skills or domains.

Of course, for Li Yu, this was not a big deal.

"Creation" might be difficult for people from this world, but for him, it was hardly a challenge.

He already had a pile of skills related to the Earth Element in his mind.

For example, "Heaven Moves Ten Thousand Phenomena", "Earth Flow Wall", "Mountain Earth Art"...

"Not bad."

Li Yu nodded, and the next moment, he reappeared in the Eastern Palace's sleeping quarters.

Lying on the lounge chair by the window, his consciousness entered the Spiritual Sea.

At this moment, with the sacrifice of the Skydream Ice Worm, his soul power hadn't been directly pushed forward.

But his spiritual power had greatly improved.

Previously, under the nourishment of the skull skill "Eternal", his spiritual power had grown rapidly, even starting to take on a tangible form.

But the process had still been slow.

After all, transitioning into "Divine Consciousness" wasn't something that could be achieved easily.

Before, judging by progress, he had reached about 10% of materialization.

Now, it had been directly pushed to 25%.

The improvement was staggering, saving Li Yu a lot of time.

At this moment, Li Yu spiritual body stood on the Spiritual Sea, gazing at the center of the sea.

The [Elemental Spirit] was curled up, emitting a divine aura. Twelve points of light circled around it, representing the twelve elements Li Yu now controlled.

In addition to the nine elements provided by the nine soul rings, there were also three additional elements of Evil, Darkness, and Wind, granted after the [Elemental Spirit's Guardian] transformation.

A total of twelve elements.

These twelve elements now formed various colored dots, resembling small planets, swirling around the [Elemental Spirit], making it appear even more divine.

However...

Li Yu gaze now rested on the side of the [Elemental Spirit].

There was an invisible but clearly existing [Martial Spirit].

But for now, it remained in an "empty" state, waiting for Li Yu to actively "add" to it.

With Li Yu current strength, he naturally wouldn't be assigned a Martial Spirit. He had absolute freedom regarding this second Martial Spirit.

However, he hesitated about what to choose as his second Martial Spirit.

Just as the Skydream Ice Worm had arranged for Huo Yuhao, choosing the Ice Empress was naturally out of the question.

He didn't care for it.

If that were the case, he might as well enter the Star Dou Forest's sealing space and catch any random Bear Lord, which would be better than the Ice Empress.

Moreover, the ultimate ice had no use for him.

"For me, what's more important is to shore up my weaknesses," Li Yu whispered.

The term "weakness" was somewhat exaggerated in his case.

With so many elements under his control, combined with the [Elemental Spirit Divine Armor], even if he stood still and let others attack him, it would still be a rather laborious task.

But putting that aside, he did indeed have some "weaknesses."

First, his physical body.

With the support of [Water and Fire Spiritual Body] and [Indestructible Body], his physical body was almost on par with some fierce beasts.

But in comparison, it was still a weakness.

However, at this moment, the only physical body enhancement he could think of that was impressive enough was the Golden Dragon King bloodline sealed within Tang Wulin in the later timeline.

But that thing was still sealed in the "God Realm", and even if he wanted to, there was no way for him to access it.

"Wait a minute..."

Li Yu suddenly thought about the bold actions of the "Emperor of the Wasteland" — using oneself as a seed.

Could he use himself as a seed to cultivate a special physical Martial Spirit?

"Damn, I'm crazy..."

Li Yu broke into a cold sweat, realizing that such an idea was akin to seeking death.

Although the world here was vastly different from the world of the "Emperor of the Wasteland," and lacked such "strange" existences, it still had entities with physical Martial Spirits.

Yet, "using oneself as a seed" was undoubtedly an extremely dangerous idea, much like using oneself for alchemy.

"I'll treat it as a backup plan for now..." Li Yu whispered, suppressing the thought, and then turned his focus to his second choice.

Second, his spiritual power.

His spiritual power was undeniably strong.

But his use of it was still quite "superficial." In fact, even the techniques of the little brat might be stronger than his.

He had mostly focused on using elemental power, which was quite refined.

But his development of spiritual power itself was very limited.

It was like guarding a treasure mountain without the tools to mine it.

Therefore...

If his second Martial Spirit were to be a soul beast related to spiritual power, then every soul ring would provide him with "skills" related to it, which could be his "fuel."

Originally, the Skydream Ice Worm, being a million-year soul beast with a focus on spiritual power, would have been a good choice.

But since it had already become the ninth soul ring of [Elemental Spirit], it could no longer serve as his second Martial Spirit.

Additionally, the "weakling" setup of the Skydream Ice Worm made Li Yu somewhat disdainful of it.

Thus...

Another powerful spiritual beast became a candidate for Li Yu second choice.

In the Sun Moon Continent, the Evileye Tyrant — Evil Eye.

It had nearly 800,000 years of cultivation and was on the verge of breaking through to 800,000 years.

It was the most powerful existence beneath the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King Di Tian and also the top spiritual soul beast in terms of spiritual power.

"Sun Moon Continent..."

A strange gleam flashed in Li Yu eyes.

Based on the timeline, although the Sun Moon Continent had not yet connected with the Douluo Continent, it definitely existed.

Moreover, it had already surpassed Douluo Continent in terms of "technology."

Currently, the Blacksmith Guild in the Douluo Continent, hiding in Gengxin City, was still in its "weak" phase.

On the Sun Moon Continent, the Blacksmith Guild might have already evolved into the Forge Master Guild, and Soul Guidance technology was in rapid development.

It was definitely not like the Douluo Continent, where Soul Guidance devices were still rare.

Even the little brat's hidden weapons had become the talk of the town.

"Gengxin City, Sun Moon Continent..."

Li Yu gaze flickered, then he remembered something and murmured, "I almost forgot, [Yi] needs a lot of metals and soul bones. I must visit Gengxin City..."
