Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring

Good heavens!

I could even earn Identity Points by defeating the Man Faced Demon Spider?

Ning Rongrong clapped a hand over her mouth in shock.

It was as if something unbelievable had happened.

Startled, everyone hurriedly descended from the sky, only to find that nothing had happened at all.

Of course, that was how it looked to them.

And on top of completing a hidden quest, she had actually unlocked a luck-stealing quest.

Destroyed the Soul Ring Tang San originally absorbed at level thirty?

Ning Rongrong fell into thought for a moment.

Could the Man Faced Demon Spider I injured be the wounded one Tang San stumbled across through sheer dogshit luck in the original story?

Come to think of it, it was certainly possible.

After all, the Peerless Dragon Snake and their party had been the first to find the Man Faced Demon Spider in the original story. Now she was with them, and here was the spider.

Only this time, she was the one who had injured it, not them.

Talk about a coincidence, huh?

You can't blame me for this, Tang San.

It was all arranged by fate!

But the Man Faced Demon Spider isn't quite dead yet. Did the system really just hand me the reward so hastily?

What if Tang San suddenly jumps out and steals the killing blow?

Will the system compensate me?

Ning Rongrong looked at the half of the Man Faced Demon Spider, which was barely clinging to life, then glanced warily around. She hurriedly said to Meng Yiran, "The Soul Ring from this Soul Beast is yours. Finish it off and start absorbing it."

"Huh?" Meng Yiran was stunned at first. After looking at her grandparents and seeing them nod in agreement, she hesitated no longer and drove her blade into the Man Faced Demon Spider's head.

After all, everyone present except her had all the Soul Rings they needed to advance.

"Thank you!"

As the Soul Beast died, the thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring appeared beside its corpse. With the Peerless Dragon Snake couple standing guard, Meng Yiran began absorbing it with peace of mind.

Ning Rongrong, meanwhile, walked over to Zhu Zhuqing and began examining the unexpected rewards she had just received.

Sixty thousand years of actual Soul Ring age in total, fifty thousand Identity Points, and a fifty-thousand-year External Soul Bone.

These rewards are almost too generous, aren't they?

Or has all my cultivation been less worthwhile than stealing a little of Tang San's luck?

"Add fifty thousand years of actual Soul Ring age to my First Soul Ring, and the remaining ten thousand to my third Soul Ring."

Ning Rongrong gave the system her orders as she thought.

All three of her Soul Rings were now Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings. Her First Soul Ring was around fifty thousand years old, while her second and third were both around ten thousand years old, yet their boosts were the same.

There was no need to divide the reward evenly among all three Soul Rings.

She would get a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring first.

Whoosh-

After she gave the system its orders, it quickly finished adding the years.

In the space of a moment, Ning Rongrong's First Soul Ring evolved into a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, while her third Soul Ring reached twenty thousand years of age.

Looking at her First Soul Ring, so red it was almost purple, she felt indescribably exhilarated.

Meanwhile.

After her First Soul Ring became a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, its Soul Skills changed once again.

"Ding~"

"Congratulations, Host. Your First Soul Ring has advanced to a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring."

"Ding~"

"The Soul Skills of the Host's First Soul Ring will change."

"Please check them yourself."

"Ten Treasures turn forth to reveal Glazed Tile, the Ten Treasures are named.

First: Strength.

Provides the target with a twofold boost to strength.

First: Divine Strength.

Provides the user with a tenfold boost to strength.

Divine Strength effect: Ten Treasures Ultimate Slash (guaranteed hit). Releases ten streams of Sword Qi to attack the target. The Sword Qi remains constant, can restrict the target's range of movement, and its damage does not change. All Sword Qi ignores all physical defenses.

First: Demonic Strength.

Ten Treasures Demon Sect Slash: Cancels the Divine Strength state and activates the Demonic Strength state, providing a twentyfold boost to strength for a brief time and unleashing a powerful slash that deals immense damage to the target. Enchants the target, weakening the target's strength attribute.

Note: Can only be used once every two hours."

She had gained another Soul Skill: the Demonic Strength state. Moreover, the Soul Skill in this state was an extraordinarily powerful offensive skill.

Judging by its description, it was even more terrifying than Ten Treasures Ultimate Slash.

Good gracious.

A twentyfold boost! That's a full two times the damage of Ten Treasures Ultimate Slash in the Divine Strength state.

It could also enchant the target, lowering their strength attribute.

It could both attack and wear down an opponent.

The one flaw in the jade was perhaps that Ten Treasures Demon Sect Slash lacked the guaranteed-hit property and the ability to ignore defenses.

Moreover, the boost only lasted a short time; unlike the Divine Strength state, it could not be maintained indefinitely.

But on second thought, she really should not ask for so much.

Otherwise, who could withstand such a powerful Soul Skill?

If Zhao Wuji showed up, could I kill even him with one slash?

I'm getting ahead of myself.

As things stood, she ought to be satisfied.

Ning Rongrong's previously calm composure gave way when she saw the enormous changes to her Soul Skills. Her body trembled slightly, and she leaned against Zhu Zhuqing.

Ever since arriving on Douluo Continent, she had wanted to use the system to accomplish something great, but thinking about it was easy; making it happen was hard.

Her Soul Power Level was still stuck at thirty. Fighting Soul Masters at the same level was easy enough, but she could not beat Soul Masters at higher levels at all.

Now, with this reward,

she felt she could give it a try.

At the very least, with the powerful boost, she was confident she could instantly defeat Ye Zhiqiu of Canghui Academy if she encountered him again.

"Rongrong, have you gotten stronger again?" Zhu Zhuqing could not help chuckling as she looked at Ning Rongrong leaning against her.

In the past, whenever Ning Rongrong did this, she had assumed Ning Rongrong was tired, only to find out that Ning Rongrong had gained one Soul Skill or another.

Fortunately, she was used to it by now, even when Ning Rongrong looked exhausted.

That had to mean what she had gained was simply too generous!

Ning Rongrong nodded and whispered, "Much, much stronger. We have a much better chance against the Star Luo Imperial Family now."

Ning Rongrong had held nothing back from Zhu Zhuqing and had been entirely honest with her, except that she had never told her about the system.

Give me your whole heart, and I will repay you with boundless trust.

It was a simple principle that many people failed to live by, but Ning Rongrong understood it.

"The Star Luo Imperial Family..."

At those words, Zhu Zhuqing grew somewhat downcast, but the desolation on her face quickly vanished. Forcing a smile instead, she continued looking at Ning Rongrong.

She did not know when it had begun, but her heart had changed. She had lost interest in the opposite sex and was instead always filled with joy and anticipation when it came to Ning Rongrong.

Yet she had never regretted it.

Whether it was the growing closeness between them as they spent their days and nights together or Ning Rongrong's own inherent charm, she could resist neither.

"I still have one more thing to obtain. Wait for me a moment."

Ning Rongrong did not notice the desolation that had flashed across Zhu Zhuqing's face. She continued examining the rewards she had just received.

There was one last item.

A fifty-thousand-year External Soul Bone.
