Quan Yi looked at Huo Wu's charming retort with doting eyes, his affection for her growing stronger.
He stroked Huo Wu's hair, stood up, and said, "Get up, seeing how energetic you are, you should be able to eat."
With that, Quan Yi walked out of the house without looking back.
Once outside, Quan Yi quickly hid behind the wooden wall, calming himself.
Quan Yi realized that his resistance was getting weaker and weaker.
At this rate, he wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
At that moment, Quan Yi made a secret decision in his heart.
He would propose to Huo Wu and then formally marry her.
Separated by a house, they calmed their surging emotions.
After regaining their composure, they realized that their current location was not suitable.
They knew that they weren't the only two people here.
Quan Yi took out the soul-guided iron pot and cooked a lavish Evil Demon Tiger Whale meat set meal.
Dugu Bo hadn't eaten Quan Yi's cooking in a long time, and moreover, this was rare Evil Demon Tiger Whale meat, plus, his body was recovering after solving the toxin problem.
With all these factors combined, he actually ate three times his usual amount.
Meanwhile, Quan Yi and Huo Wu maintained their usual appetites.
Even so, Dugu Bo's appetite still couldn't match Huo Wu's.
Huo Wu had opened up two hidden meridians, and her ability to mobilize her internal organs and blood throughout her body was stronger than Dugu Bo's.
Plus, Huo Wu, who had consumed a lot of energy not long ago, was already very hungry, and her appetite was also a bit larger than the day before.
After a hearty meal, the sun began to slowly set.
That night, Quan Yi lay in the scorching Yang Spring, cultivating his soul power.
Huo Wu, on the other hand, sat cross-legged in the wooden house, cultivating.
Playing around was playing around, but neither of them had forgotten that they were here for secluded cultivation.
Starting the next day, Quan Yi once again put on the weighted armor weighing 100,000 kilograms.
However, this time, Quan Yi decided to never take off this weighted armor until the end of the secluded cultivation.
Quan Yi's current physical strength could barely reach the athletic level of an average adult.
But that wasn't enough, Quan Yi had to completely adapt his body to the weight of 100,000 kilograms.
Logically speaking, with Quan Yi's own growth curve, he could reach this goal as long as he gradually waited to absorb his seventh soul ring.
However, Quan Yi was not satisfied with this, he had to reach this realm with six soul rings.
Fortunately, Quan Yi's goal was not a pipe dream under the nourishment of the spring water.
Under the alternating ice and heat of the spring water, Quan Yi's body training efficiency was five times that of the outside world.
This efficiency, although not comparable to Huo Wu's 'self-harm' style of training, was also a great increase.
The meat of fifty Evil Demon Tiger Whales, the environmental enhancement of the Ice and Fire Spring, and the extremely harsh physical training, made Quan Yi's body stronger and stronger, and his physique also became more robust.
Without hammer forging, Quan Yi changed his physical training back to the original three-stage training.
Quan Yi seemed to have returned to the Primary Soul Master Academy.
Three times a day, morning, noon, and night, of extreme physical training, Quan Yi put the remaining energy into the design work of the armor.
He listed all the soul-guided patterns he had mastered at this stage, and selected the soul-guided patterns that could be superimposed on the armor.
He had to draw the pattern blueprints first, and then, after the armor was reshaped, engrave the patterns on it.
At this stage, Quan Yi's initial ideas were as follows.
First, the armor must have its own exclusive soul-guided space.
This was to facilitate the carrying of the 'Burst' Spear and the 'Devouring Flame' Shield.
After wearing the armor, it was impossible for Quan Yi to reach through the tight breastplate and take out the weapon from the Heart of Scorching Sun.
Therefore, the armor itself must have the function of storing weapons.
Second, the armor's jet device must be changed to a variable control type.
Quan Yi's back, elbows, legs, palms, and soles of his feet were equipped with dozens of large and small propulsion devices.
To achieve propelled flight, Quan Yi had to precisely fine-tune the thrusters.
However, the armor forged by Lou Gao did not have such a function.
To achieve this goal, Quan Yi set his sights on the control system of the Dragon Abyss Boat.
The control system of the Dragon Abyss Boat controlled the hull through a circular crystal ball.
This method of operation could inject soul power and mental power at the same time, which would be the best object of imitation for Quan Yi.
After talking about the control system, Quan Yi also had an idea, which was to use the memory metal characteristics of Lou Gao to create a special armor that could be used simultaneously in water, land, and air.
Land and air, in fact, to some extent, the Crimson Dragon Skyfire Armor had already achieved it.
But the water, it had not yet been achieved.
Because the Crimson Dragon Skyfire Armor was not a fully sealed mecha, so, wearing it into the seabed, the water would still flow into the inside of the armor through the gaps.
In this way, it could not resist the water pressure of the seabed like a submarine.
In addition, there was also a fundamental problem, that was, even if the gaps in the armor were filled, the inside of the armor, which was close to the body, could not store too much oxygen.
Therefore, it could not operate underwater for a long time at all.
However, after Quan Yi's long-term research, he discovered an important breakthrough.
This breakthrough was Yun Qiong's sixth soul skill, Scroll of Mountains and Rivers.
This special space-based soul skill, which sucked enemies into a special space through a powerful suction force, gave Quan Yi great inspiration.
Quan Yi had observed the soul power patterns when Yun Qiong released the soul skill through the Crimson Dragon Eye.
Through comparison with the Ruyi Treasure Pouch soul-guided patterns, he discovered the similarity between the two.
These two not only had space-based abilities, but also could store living things, the biggest factor in this was that they could absorb and store air.
Quan Yi, through comparing one by one and repeated experiments, finally found the soul-guided patterns of related functions.
With these discoveries, Quan Yi could open the space soul-guided patterns for storing air inside the armor.
In this way, even if the armor was completely sealed, it could achieve long-term underwater activities.
Moreover, there was also a special function on the Dragon Abyss Boat that could detect the air content.
Quan Yi could completely copy this function to warn himself.
After solving the air problem, the remaining problem was the wearing of the fully sealed armor.
Regarding this problem, Quan Yi actually got inspiration from the Dragon Abyss Boat.
That was the technology to seal the cabin with soul power.
This was a technology that could firmly lock the hatch without devices such as buckles.
Combining this technology, Quan Yi, through the ductility of the memory metal, could allow the armor to automatically connect various air raids to form a special airtight state.
In this way, Quan Yi could operate with soul power, to open and close the fully sealed state by himself, and then realize the underwater combat function.
