Absorbing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring

"You! What are you trying to do?"

When Lin Feng finished setting up the Level 7 Defense Soul Tool, the knocked-out Xiao Wu also woke up. Seeing that there were only herself and Lin Feng in the room, a bad premonition arose in her heart.

"Let me go right now! Otherwise, I won't let you off in the future!"

Hearing this, Lin Feng smiled. "The premise of not letting me off in the future is that you even have a future, Hundred Thousand Year Soft Bone Rabbit."

As Lin Feng's words fell, Xiao Wu's face instantly turned deathly pale. She almost blurted out, "How do you know?" But after a moment, considering that Lin Feng didn't seem to be an Eight-Ring Soul Douluo, and that admitting it would mean her death, she forced herself to stay calm and speak.

"I, I don't know what you're talking about. If you want to find a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, you need to go to the Star Dou Great Forest. Why are you coming after me?"

Xiao Wu was trying to argue, but Lin Feng had no interest in listening to her excuses. He turned the folding fan in his hand into a dagger and walked up to Xiao Wu.

"No! Don't come any closer!"

Sensing that her death was imminent, Xiao Wu shrank back, trying to dodge, but at only Rank 29, where could she possibly go?

The dagger in Lin Feng's hand quickly plunged into her neck. Accompanied by a sharp pain, Xiao Wu only felt her body growing colder and colder.

"Relax. Feeling dizzy is normal."

Xiao Wu's throat rolled slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but the moment blood flooded into her throat, it was destined that she could say nothing at all.

Before long, a blood-red soul ring floated out from Xiao Wu's corpse. Lin Feng glanced at it, then took out a soul tool and stored that blood-red Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring inside.

Inside that soul tool, the soul ring could be preserved for an extra week, giving Lin Feng enough time to prepare.

After storing the soul ring, Lin Feng cut open Xiao Wu's body and found a Hundred Thousand Year Soft Bone Rabbit Left Leg Bone inside.

Without any hesitation, Lin Feng immediately sat down and began to absorb it.

According to the setting of Dou Yi, soul bones could be directly fused by any level of soul master. According to the setting of Dou Er, soul bones required a certain level of strength to fuse. But regardless of which setting applied, with Lin Feng's Rank 60 Soul Power, absorbing this mere Soft Bone Rabbit soul bone would pose no problem at all.

Thus, two and a half hours later, the Soft Bone Rabbit Left Leg Bone from Xiao Wu was fully fused by Lin Feng, granting him the two soul skills of Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body.

Sensing those two soul skills, Lin Feng's brow couldn't help but twitch. The soul bone skills were Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body—could it be that the soul ring skills would be Intangibility and Explosive Kill Eight-Stage Fall?

Intangibility was fine, but Explosive Kill Eight-Stage Fall was absolutely unacceptable!

That thing could summon Xiao Wu's soul to fight!

That ability wouldn't be a problem in Dou Yi, but in Dou Er, it would be a huge disaster. Having a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit soul ring wasn't a big deal in itself, even if that soul ring carried a bit of Xiao Wu's aura.

Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, and a rabbit that gave birth to litters at that. Moreover, ten thousand years ago, soul beasts acted purely on instinct and had almost no self-awareness.

Under these circumstances, over a hundred thousand years, not all Soft Bone Rabbits in the Star Dou Great Forest were Xiao Wu's descendants, but many would inevitably be somewhat related to her. Therefore, it wasn't strange for the soul rings they produced to carry traces of Xiao Wu's aura. Even Tang San would subconsciously overlook this point.

But if Lin Feng's sixth soul skill actually created Xiao Wu's soul, then given Tang San's extreme obsession with Xiao Wu, he might really descend to the mortal world without a second thought.

"Please don't let it be Explosive Kill Eight-Stage Fall! If it really is that skill, then killing this soul ring specifically would be meaningless!" Lin Feng prayed inwardly, then released Xiao Wu's soul ring from the soul tool.

"Soul."

After glancing at Xiao Wu's soul ring, Lin Feng released his Two-Character Battle Armor.

In Dou San, Tang Wulin once asked Tang San whether battle armor provided any physical enhancement. Tang San said he didn't know, because he had never seen battle armor.

But by combining the settings of Dou Er and Dou San, it was clear that battle armor definitely enhanced the body.

In the Dou Er era, only Titled Douluo had Soul Cores. Two Soul Cores were exclusive to Limit Douluo. Huo Yuhao's brilliance lay in the fact that he condensed his first Soul Core at the Soul Sage level.

That was an outstanding achievement in the Dou Er era, but merely average in the Dou San era, because Dou San explicitly stated that Soul Sages had Soul Cores.

With Soul Cores at the Soul Sage level, and the setting that reaching Titled Douluo required a second Soul Core, it was evident how much battle armor enhanced a soul master's body.

Lin Feng needed this enhancement to have any confidence in absorbing Xiao Wu's soul ring.

"Come on, let me see the power of this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!"

After absorbing the soul bone and releasing his battle armor, Lin Feng began attempting to fuse Xiao Wu's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

"Mmh!"

As soon as the soul ring entered his body, an intense pain surged from within. This was a normally hunted Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, carrying the endless hatred of the soul beast before its death.

Unlike soul rings from Soul Spirits, where even if the Soul Spirit was unwilling, it knew that to survive, the soul master and it were one. To a certain extent, they shared glory and loss.

If the soul master died, the Soul Spirit would die too. But if the soul master lived, they would not perish.

Under these circumstances, the Soul Spirit needed to help the soul master absorb the soul ring, even trying to make its power less violent.

That was why, in Dou Yi, Tang San almost died absorbing a two-thousand-year third soul ring. In Dou Er, Xiao Xiao, who had two soul bones, could only handle a two-thousand-year third soul ring as her limit. But in Dou San, the unremarkable Xu Xiaoyan absorbed a three-thousand-year Ice Bear soul ring without any problem. The absorption limit for soul rings had nearly doubled. This was one of the benefits of being a Soul Spirit soul master.

Except for soul beasts that absolutely refused to cooperate with humans—the Unyielding Soul Spirits—other soul beasts, even if unwilling, were in a symbiotic relationship with the soul master. Their continued existence depended on ensuring the soul master's safety.

However, because of the fear of Tang San from Dou Er descending, Lin Feng couldn't accept a Xiao Wu soul ring that shared glory and loss with the soul master. What he could accept was only a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit soul ring.

This soul ring, filled with the intense hatred of a Soft Bone Rabbit, and the fact that Xiao Wu could never continue living inside Lin Feng's body, meant that the soul ring's rampage was Xiao Wu's final means of revenge against Lin Feng. The two sides could never reconcile.

Instead, Xiao Wu was doomed to die. The only difference was whether Xiao Wu could use the soul ring's frenzy to take Lin Feng with her when he absorbed it.
