A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring truly was worthy of its name. Even though Lin Feng had prepared himself long ago and had always deliberately sought ways to strengthen his physique, his body still inevitably began to flush as the immense power of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring was drawn in.

Under the tremendous pressure of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, his blood accelerated through his body, and some capillaries ruptured, causing that abnormal redness.

At that moment, Lin Feng somewhat understood why Zhang Lexuan had needed time to recuperate after absorbing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

Lin Feng had prepared beforehand, so only some capillaries had ruptured. That was not much of an issue for a soul master. For someone unprepared, merely protecting their most vital meridians would likely have been difficult enough.

Zhang Lexuan's accident had occurred before Ma Xiaotao and the others', yet more than five years had passed and her Soul Power had only reached a pitiful level eighty-six. Even if absorbing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and soul bone had only raised her Soul Power to level eighty-one, rather than reaching level eighty-three like Tang San through a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and soul bone, gaining only five levels of Soul Power in over five years showed just how severe the aftereffects of her unprepared absorption had been.

"Stop struggling. Did you really think I would be completely unprepared to absorb a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring? This kind of power can't break through my body." His body ached slightly, but the pain did not disgust Lin Feng in the slightest. Instead, it left him unable to contain his excitement.

"Damn bastard! Sister Xiao Wu will fight you to the death!"

Within Lin Feng's Sea of Consciousness, Xiao Wu had already lost her human form and returned to her original beastly shape, transforming into a gigantic rabbit as she roared.

Ten-thousand-year soul beasts still possessed soul shockwaves, while the soul shockwaves of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts allowed them to confront a soul master on the spiritual level in their original forms.

At that moment, Lin Feng was not facing the Xiao Wu from her two-ring stage, but an attack originating from the soul of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Charm Rabbit.

"What, is that all you can do? Your soul shockwave doesn't seem like much. Are you really a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

Within his own Sea of Consciousness, Lin Feng taunted Xiao Wu, trying to provoke her into losing control and using her soul shockwave against him.

If it had been an ordinary soul master, even a Spirit Douluo, facing the soul shockwave of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast would have been fatal. But Lin Feng's martial soul was the soul itself!

And that soul shockwave was taking place within his own Sea of Consciousness.

With a Soul Martial Soul and the advantage of fighting on his home ground, Xiao Wu using all her soul power to unleash soul shockwaves was the safest possible scenario for Lin Feng, whose own soul was his martial soul.

As long as Xiao Wu's soul power was exhausted, the remaining immense ownerless energy of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring could be guided into his body by Lin Feng's soul power and absorbed bit by bit.

Xiao Wu was indeed a being who had lived for a hundred thousand years. She did not sense Lin Feng's deliberate provocation and merely continued using the soul shockwave employed by all soul beasts over ten thousand years old, trying to shatter Lin Feng's soul.

Other than rapidly draining her own soul, such shockwaves had no effect whatsoever on someone whose soul power had already reached the peak of the Spirit Abyss Realm, like Lin Feng.

"Damn bastard!"

Xiao Wu gathered the last awareness she could maintain. With her senses about to disperse, she was already preparing for one final all-out burst. Lin Feng likewise focused his mind to the utmost, ready at any moment to deal with that final attack.

Before long, Xiao Wu seized the instant before her soul completely dispersed and unleashed her final means of attack.

Feeling that immense spiritual energy and Soul Power, Lin Feng's left leg soul bone lit up amid the final eruption of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring. It was Xiao Wu's strongest defensive soul skill—Invincible Golden Body!

"How could this be!"

Xiao Wu had never imagined that her strongest defensive soul skill would now become Lin Feng's trump card against the impact of her Soul Ring.

Unwilling to accept it, she tried to gather the Soul Ring's power again for a counterattack. But as her energy began its final countdown, Lin Feng no longer intended to hold back. He unleashed Invincible Golden Body one after another, the only rule being: Invincible Golden Body! Invincible Golden Body! Invincible Golden Body!

During Xiao Wu's final outburst, all the energy she tried to use to blast apart Lin Feng's body was blocked by her own Invincible Golden Body. In the end, with her soul shockwaves completely incapable of inflicting fatal harm upon Lin Feng, Xiao Wu's consciousness dispersed in resentment.

At the same time, without Lovesick Heartbreak Red protecting her, Xiao Wu, like any ordinary slain Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, no longer had any possibility of revival.

As Xiao Wu's soul completely dispersed, the immense energy of the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring finally became ownerless, allowing Lin Feng to absorb and refine it as he pleased.

That energy was immense—so immense that even an ordinary Spirit Douluo would risk death absorbing it. Yet for someone who had used Exploding Ring before and had already raised both his cultivation and physical constitution to the Spirit Douluo realm, it was still bearable.

Bit by bit, he guided the enormous energy into his body. After a full day and night of absorption and refinement, six soul rings—black, black, black, black, black, red—pulsed around Lin Feng, showing that his cultivation had officially reached the six-ring Soul Emperor realm.

"Whew..."

After exhaling a breath of stale air and opening his eyes again, Lin Feng discovered that his clothes were covered in grime and blood scabs.

Those were the impurities expelled from his body after successfully fusing with the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

After washing up briefly, Lin Feng changed into a fresh robe and took out a crystal ball. As he injected Soul Power into it, the number sixty-seven appeared, representing that his cultivation had reached level sixty-seven.

"Not bad. Just as expected."

In the original Dou Yi novel, Tang San had just broken through level sixty when he obtained Xiao Wu's Soul Ring and soul bone, which raised his cultivation straight to level sixty-six. Not long afterward, he reached level sixty-seven.

Lin Feng himself had already waited at level sixty for some time, so reaching level sixty-seven in one leap was well within expectations.

"Soul."

After testing his Soul Power in his normal state, Lin Feng summoned his Two-Character Battle Armor once more. As the armor appeared, he injected Soul Power into the crystal ball again, and the displayed number changed from sixty-seven to eighty-five, proving that with the Two-Character Battle Armor, Lin Feng already possessed the strength of level eighty-five.

Of course, with four hundred-thousand-year soul skills and several other abilities, if they truly fought, Lin Feng's strength was far beyond that of an ordinary Spirit Douluo. He could already contend with certain Titled Douluo in his normal state, and if he unleashed his full power, even a Super Douluo would have to avoid his edge.

After briefly activating his Battle Armor, Lin Feng inspected the soul skills granted by Xiao Wu's Soul Ring.

"A hundred-thousand-year soul skill. The first is Void, and the second is..."
