Biodata
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Name | Soul Ring |
| Original Name | 魂环 |
| Classification | Soul Master cultivation component; energy and ability gained primarily from Soul Beasts |
| Status | Central to the Soul Master advancement system 71 101 |
| First Appearance | Chapter 4 4 |
Function in Cultivation
Soul Masters must obtain and absorb Soul Rings to advance through the established cultivation system. A Soul Ring carries power from its source and can grant a Soul Skill; however, Liu Yanyang considers the energy within an absorbed ring not wholly native to its wielder, limiting unrestricted use of Soul Skills 71 101.
- Soul Ring selection can shape the development of a Martial Soul. Liu Yanyang advises Shui Bing'er to obtain rings from Phoenix Subspecies or Phoenix-blooded flying Soul Beasts to complete her Ice Phoenix's evolution 4.
- A Martial Soul can possess only nine Soul Rings, making each selection consequential 6.
- Soul Beasts are the normal source of rings: the Soul Master kills a suitable beast, then draws its manifested ring into their Martial Soul for absorption 9 61.
- According to an ancient account relayed by Liu Yanyang, the requirement for Soul Masters to hunt Soul Beasts and absorb rings was imposed after the Dragon God's defeat 101.
Acquisition and Absorption
Standard Absorption
After a Soul Beast dies, its Soul Ring manifests above the body. The recipient guides the ring into their Martial Soul and absorbs its energy while enduring physical and mental strain 9 61.
- A ring's age, the Soul Beast's bloodline, and compatibility with the Martial Soul affect its value and danger 8 9.
- High-grade rings can cause severe bodily pressure, violent energy surges, and meridian strain during absorption 9 13.
- Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings pose a notable mental shock in addition to their physical burden 30.
- Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings remain dangerous even to exceptionally strengthened Soul Masters; Liu Yanyang endured visible pain throughout his nine-day absorption of the Gold Devouring Beast's ring 99.
- Physical strengthening can raise a Soul Master's tolerated ring age. Thousand-Year Whale Rubber is stated to increase tolerance by at least 400–500 years, while Dragon Ganoderma also strengthens the body and purifies dragon bloodlines 6.
Exceptional Sources
| Source | Result |
|---|---|
| Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent Inner Core | Stored much of the Soul Beast's power and abilities; after Dugu Yan absorbed it, it manifested an additional ancient black fifth Soul Ring 82 |
| God-bestowed Soul Ring | A reward granted to Shui Bing'er after completing the first Trial of Life; its eventual strength depends on her physical constitution 177 106 |
| Soul Ring–Soul Bone resonance | Yang Wudi's matching Gold Devouring Beast Soul Ring and Soul Bone temporarily caused his black-and-red ring to become Hundred-Thousand-Year red 99 100 |
Ring Colors
Observed Soul Ring colors correspond to the age and quality of their sources.
| Visible Color | Documented Examples |
|---|---|
| Yellow | An approximately eight-hundred-year Thunderstorm Claw Dragon produced Liu Yanyang's first yellow ring 9 |
| Purple | A Mutant Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear cub produced Liu Yanyang's second purple ring; a roughly three-thousand-year Condensing Water Flying Luan also produced a purple ring 13 34 |
| Black | Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, including the White Phoenix's ring; Liu Yanyang's nearly fifty-thousand-year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon ring was likewise black 77 61 |
| Red | The Hundred-Thousand-Year Gold Devouring Beast produced Liu Yanyang's red sixth ring 99 100 |
Concealment and Alteration
Soul Tool rings can alter a Soul Ring's visible color, allowing high-age rings to be concealed from observers.
- Cheng Ying — Conceals the user's aura and form while Soul Power is not used; it can also change Soul Ring colors 2.
- Han Guang — Changes Soul Ring colors after the wearer reaches the Soul Grandmaster realm; Liu Yanyang gives it to Shui Bing'er so a potentially thousand-year second ring will not attract attention 2 19.
- Liu Yanyang uses Cheng Ying to make his yellow-and-purple first two rings appear as two yellow rings 13.
- Cheng Ying also enables concealment during dangerous Soul Beast hunts, allowing Liu Yanyang to avoid detection in Thunder Gorge 60.
Documented Soul Ring Examples
| Recipient / Ring | Source | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Liu Yanyang — First Ring | Approximately eight-hundred-year Thunderstorm Claw Dragon with True Dragon bloodline | Granted Dragon Roar: attacks gain paralysis and disruption of enemy Soul Power circulation; attack power rises by 80% and movement speed by 100%. His Soul Power reached level fourteen and a half 9 |
| Liu Yanyang — Second Ring | Mutant Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear | Granted Po Jun: 60% armor penetration and a 200% increase to strength and defense. His Soul Power reached Rank 22 13 |
| Liu Yanyang — Third Ring | More than six-thousand-year Golden Tyrant Dragon | Granted Unyielding: 30% all-attribute amplification; the amplification rises by 10% at every major Soul Power breakthrough and removes negative effects. His Soul Power reached level 32 20 |
| Liu Yanyang — Fifth Ring | Nearly fifty-thousand-year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon | Granted Qian Jun, an expanding lightning ring that sweeps objects outward before detonating at its perimeter. His Soul Power reached level 56 61 |
| Liu Yanyang — Sixth Ring | Hundred-Thousand-Year Gold Devouring Beast | Produced a red ring and granted the Talent Domain Domain of Destruction 99 100 |
| Shui Bing'er — Fourth Ring | Ten-Thousand-Year White Phoenix | A black ring obtained from a Soul Beast suppressed by Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix bloodline; Liu Yanyang expects its skill to be recovery-oriented 77 |
| Dugu Yan — Fifth Ring | Ten Headed Fierce Yang Serpent Inner Core | An ancient black ring manifested alongside the evolution of her Martial Soul and Eight Spider Lances Soul Bone 82 |
Refinement Research
Liu Yanyang seeks to refine his Soul Rings rather than merely absorb them, believing it could reduce the system's dependence on external Soul Beast energy and smooth his future cultivation path 71.
His first attempt to inject Soul Power into his first ring failed: he spat blood and required healing from his Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone 71.
