A dizzying spin, when Qian Mo and Gu Yuena opened their eyes again and stood on solid ground, they had already been brought to the Shrek Library by Yun Ming.
The Shrek Library was clean and tidy, simply decorated with rows and rows of bookshelves.
Yun Ming led Qian Mo and Gu Yuena to a row of bookshelves, placed his hand on one of the shelves, and softly chanted a few words, causing a golden light to flash across the shelf.
Then Yun Ming specifically instructed, "The books in this section are the cultivation insights that Spirit Ice Douluo stored at Shrek, and you can only read the books in this section.
The rest of the books have protection mechanisms that have already been activated; if you touch them and something unexpected happens, Shrek Academy will not be responsible."
"Also, you can only read them here, you cannot take them out!"
"I understand, Senior," Qian Mo said obediently.
"You two look first, I'm leaving," Yun Ming said, and instantly disappeared from the spot.
Only Qian Mo and Gu Yuena remained in the library; Qian Mo looked gratefully at Gu Yuena, held her fair and tender little hand, and said affectionately, "Thank you, Na'er!"
Gu Yuena blushed and pulled her hand back, saying in a low voice, "Just thank me, don't get handsy."
"Hehe, wasn't I just a bit too excited?" Qian Mo smiled sheepishly.
Gu Yuena was afraid Qian Mo would say more cheesy words that would make her face flush again, so she quickly changed the subject.
"Why do you want to find Spirit Ice Douluo's twin spirits cultivation insights? Is it for the Thousand Faces Angel Project?"
Hearing this, Qian Mo's expression turned serious, and he said earnestly, "That's part of the reason, but more importantly, I want to see if there are techniques for simultaneously controlling twin spirits."
"Techniques for simultaneous control? Isn't your goal twin spirits fusion?" Gu Yuena asked in confusion.
While searching back and forth through the bookshelf for the cultivation insights he wanted to read, Qian Mo explained, "That's different; simultaneous control is 1+1=2 in a normal state, while Spirit fusion is 1+1>2 in an extreme state.
I need both."
Gu Yuena sighed and said worriedly, "You're spending so much time and resources on the path of twin spirits cultivation to seek a breakthrough; what if it all ends up being in vain?"
Qian Mo stopped his actions, looked at Gu Yuena with resolute eyes, and said firmly, "Even if I might fail, I have to do it, because the current development environment for twin spirits is too poor.
I must make a completely new breakthrough to have a higher ceiling."
The Sacred Knowledge Vault once conducted a comprehensive and detailed investigation into twin spirits, concluding that the situation of twin spirits was extremely worrying, even worse than single spirit Spirit Masters.
Logically speaking, a Spirit Master's power comes entirely from their Spirit; twin spirits are born with one more Spirit, so twin spirits Spirit Masters should have a higher ceiling and be stronger in combat at the same rank than single spirit Spirit Masters.
But the reality is that twin spirits Spirit Masters cannot use both Spirits at the same time, so the advantage in quantity is not reflected.
Furthermore, because they have to divide their attention to develop both Spirits, their understanding and application of their Spirits are not as good as single spirit Spirit Masters who focus all their effort on studying their one Spirit, perfectly achieving 1+1 finally < 1.
This can be seen from the fact that among twin spirits Spirit Masters, only Light and Dark Douluo Long Yeyue can be ranked among the top tier of powerhouses on the Douluo Continent.
Although the number of twin spirits Spirit Masters is small, their strength is actually not high.
Therefore, among twin spirits, except for those like Wu Siduo who have innate Spirit fusion abilities, the advantage compared to single spirit Spirit Masters is actually not much.
This is something Qian Mo absolutely cannot accept, and it is the most important reason for the creation of the Thousand Faces Angel Project.
He wants twin spirits to have a ceiling that single spirits cannot reach; he wants those single spirit Spirit Masters to have no way to catch up even if they want to.
"All right," Gu Yuena said, seeing that Qian Mo had made up his mind, and could only choose to help him find the information he needed.
Working together, and since there weren't many notes, they quickly found the part of the cultivation insights Qian Mo needed.
The two little heads leaned together, and it didn't take long to finish reading the insights on the application of twin spirits left by Huo Yuhao.
In this part of the insights, Huo Yuhao stated that to perfectly use two Spirits at the same time, he only found one method, which was to condense an Yin-Yang Complementary Twin Soul Core.
By making his spirit power simultaneously possess two attributes, he could provide spirit power to both Spirits at the same time, and naturally, he could use both Spirits simultaneously.
But the two soul cores were too far apart; it would take at least a Titled Douluo to achieve it, which was too late for Qian Mo.
However, Huo Yuhao also provided a line of thinking.
He wrote in his cultivation insights that before condensing the Yin-Yang Complementary Twin Soul Core, he could actually achieve temporary simultaneous use of twin spirits.
Because the Spirit Eyes Spirit was a mental type Spirit, when he used spirit power to drive the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion Spirit, he could simultaneously use mental force to control the Spirit Eyes Spirit to maintain simple auxiliary type Spirit Abilities such as mental detection.
"Using mental force to control a Spirit? Your Divinity Mask Spirit is not a mental type Spirit; this path won't be easy, right?" Gu Yuena gave her evaluation.
Qian Mo, however, shook his head, "No, whether it's replicating faces or controlling puppets, I need to use mental force, so mental force should be a relatively important attribute of the Divinity Mask Spirit.
If I choose to attach a mental type spirit soul later and cultivate in a mental attribute environment, it should be able to promote the transformation of the Divinity Mask Spirit towards a mental type Spirit."
Hearing this, Gu Yuena's delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she said coldly, "Are you sure doing this won't affect the development of the Divinity Mask Spirit?"
"I'm sure," Qian Mo said, indicating that Gu Yuena's concern was not a problem, "Don't forget, what is the core ability of the Divinity Mask Spirit?"
"Simulating the Spirit of a Spirit Master or the bloodline of a Spirit Beast for one's own use; this core ability has already been provided to me by the Silver British Beast spirit soul."
"This is equivalent to a large tree; its main trunk has already grown well, and there are no fixed requirements for what the branches should look like; I can prune them according to my needs."
"But the notes also said that this method has many limitations, and I think what you need is not a short-term simultaneous control of Spirits," Gu Yuena pointed out another problem.
Qian Mo waved his hand and said optimistically, "This is even less of a problem; just because he couldn't break the limitations doesn't mean I can't break the limitations.
Moreover, I have various powerful teams behind me who can look for ways to break the situation from multiple directions."
"Also," Qian Mo continued to brainstorm, "since mental force can control Spirits, can Qi and Blood Power also control Spirits!"
In this regard, Tang Wulin is actually a relatively good example.
Although strictly speaking, what he has is not a Spirit but the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, it has spirit rings and Spirit Abilities, which are actually quite similar to a Spirit, essentially equivalent to a Spirit controlled by Qi and Blood Power, which can be used in conjunction with his Blue Silver Grass simultaneously.
