Innate Soul Power Pill

Every soul skill it brought was incomparably powerful, as though each had been tailor-made for him.

"This isn't a place to linger!"

The heavy stench of blood in this area kept Ling Feng from letting down his guard in the slightest. If he stayed any longer, even more terrifying soul beasts would surely be drawn here.

Thus, Ling Feng hurriedly gathered the spoils from this trip and prepared to leave the perilous Sunset Forest.

With a flash, Ling Feng sped toward the outskirts of Sunset Forest like lightning.

Just as he was fleeing at full speed, the system's icy voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

A Thousand Year Soul Beast has been detected in the area where the host resides. It poses a fatal threat to the host.

Mission issued: Successfully escape from the Thousand Year Soul Beast.

Mission reward: Innate Soul Power Pill ×1 (can increase innate soul power by one level and has a certain chance of causing Martial Soul mutation)

Ling Feng was instantly dumbfounded upon hearing this, inwardly thinking, This system mission came far too suddenly.

However, he quickly calmed down and warily surveyed his surroundings.

Moments later, he detected traces of the Thousand Year Soul Beast in a tree beside him.

Its massive body flickered in and out of view among the branches and leaves. Ling Feng recognized it at once as a Man Faced Demon Spider.

Recalling his past encounter with a Thousand Year Man Faced Demon Spider, he remembered how bedraggled he had been then, constantly on the brink of death.

But now, after his Martial Soul Evolution and breakthrough to level thirty-six soul power, his strength had increased tremendously. He had no fear of this Man Faced Demon Spider whatsoever.

Without the slightest hesitation, Ling Feng decided to end the battle quickly. Soul power surged as he released his Void Mirror Martial Soul.

The silver-white mirror surface emitted a mysterious glow as it floated before him.

Ling Feng continuously poured the soul power within his body into the Void Mirror. In an instant, the first soul ring on his body shone brilliantly.

"First Soul Skill: Space Blade!"

As soul power flooded into it, sheets of Space Blades rapidly condensed before him.

These Space Blades flickered with strange Space Power fluctuations, as though they could slice through the void itself.

With a sweep of his hand, the Space Blades shot toward the Man Faced Demon Spider ahead at a speed almost impossible to catch with the naked eye, like a swarm of silver meteors.

He knew full well that the Man Faced Demon Spider was incredibly fast, as elusive as a ghost. However, he had already planned for it, using the vast number of Space Blades to completely seal off all of the spider's escape routes from every direction.

This left the Man Faced Demon Spider in a desperate situation, with no possibility of escape. It could only brace itself and face the fierce attack.

These Space Blades contained half the soul power in Ling Feng's body. Their might was obvious.

Against this all-out strike, the Man Faced Demon Spider found it impossible to resist. Its death was certain.

Sure enough!

"Bang!"

A thunderous explosion rang out, and a powerful shockwave spread in all directions. A rain of blood scattered across the ground.

At the same time, a huge purple soul ring floated above the Man Faced Demon Spider's massive corpse, emitting an enticing fluctuation of soul power.

A flicker of delight crossed Ling Feng's eyes. Forming a hand seal, he attached a Void Mark to the soul ring and stored it in his Storage Ring.

This Thousand Year Soul Ring was extremely valuable. If he sold it to another soul master in the future, it would surely fetch him a substantial sum of Gold Soul Coins.

Congratulations to the host for escaping the soul beast's clutches and successfully killing it, exceeding the mission requirements. Reward critical hit beginning...

Mission reward: Innate Soul Power Pill ×5 (can increase innate soul power by one level and has a certain chance of causing Martial Soul mutation)

The system notification sounded in his mind once more. Ling Feng nodded in satisfaction, his heart full of curiosity and anticipation for this reward.

On Douluo Continent, Martial Souls were certainly important, but one's innate soul power level was likewise one of the key factors determining a soul master's future achievements.

The higher one's innate soul power level, the faster one's subsequent cultivation would be, and the farther one could go on the path of a soul master.

Ling Feng impatiently took the five Innate Soul Power Pills out of the system space.

The pills were pitch-black and dull, looking utterly ordinary without anything special about them.

Though Ling Feng was puzzled, he still picked one up and placed it directly into his mouth.

Time passed second by second, but after a long while, Ling Feng detected no changes whatsoever in himself. He could not help wondering, Could this Innate Soul Power Pill be fake?

Just as he was filled with doubt, a line of text suddenly appeared before him.

Innate Soul Power Pill: Only effective when consumed by someone who has not awakened a Martial Soul.

Ling Feng's face darkened when he saw the notice. He inwardly complained that the system had not reminded him sooner, making him waste a precious Innate Soul Power Pill for nothing.

According to the system's timeline, he had only just been born not long ago. It seemed perfectly reasonable for the Innate Soul Power Pill to have such a restriction.

Thus, Ling Feng did not dwell on it any further. He put away the remaining four Innate Soul Power Pills; they might prove useful in the future.

Once everything had been settled, Ling Feng hurried home without stopping and immediately entered cultivation.

His experience in Sunset Forest had greatly increased his strength, but it had also made him realize his own shortcomings.

His cultivation speed was simply too fast, so his foundation was inevitably somewhat unstable. He needed to spend several days consolidating it.

Five days quietly passed.

In an open area of the room, Ling Feng opened his eyes and looked at the Thousand Year Soul Ring floating before him, delight appearing in his gaze.

His gains over these five days had been quite plentiful. During the first two days, he wholeheartedly consolidated his cultivation, carefully sorting out the somewhat disordered soul power within his body and making his strength more stable.

During the remaining three days, he immersed himself in a bold attempt—Soul Ring Fusion.

In truth, Ling Feng had conceived of this idea long ago.

However, his Bronze Mirror Martial Soul had been too low-level at the time, making it impossible to carry out this plan.

Now that his Martial Soul had successfully evolved into a God-tier Martial Soul while retaining the unique qualities of the Bronze Mirror Martial Soul, he immediately began attempting Soul Ring Fusion.

Over these three days, he extracted soul rings of different ages from different soul beasts one after another.

He carefully placed the extracted soul rings together, then used his unique understanding of soul rings to begin attempting to fuse them.

The process was like feeling his way forward in darkness, filled with the unknown and danger.

The powers within the soul rings clashed with and repelled one another, but Ling Feng did not give up. He continually adjusted his soul power, searching for the point of balance between the soul rings' powers.

Finally, through his unrelenting efforts, he successfully created a fused Thousand Year Soul Ring.

Ling Feng knew that once this fused Thousand Year Soul Ring appeared before the world, it would surely cause a massive uproar.

Its existence alone was enough to overturn the understanding of soul rings held by the people of Douluo Continent.
