Acquisition Methods

Soul Beast Rings

A slain Soul Beast can leave behind a Soul Ring for a Soul Master to absorb. Qian Renxue obtains a blood-red ring from the dead Holy Flame Golden Lion, while Tang San absorbs the nearly fifty-thousand-year ring of the Dead Illusion Rafflesia 186 227.

• The ring's age affects the danger and benefits of absorption.
• Tang San endures six hours of absorption to obtain a God-Bestowed ring at his physical limit of 65,000 years 235.
• Qian Renxue relies on a hundred-thousand-year head Soul Bone to withstand the Holy Flame Golden Lion's soul assault during absorption 186.

God-Bestowed Soul Rings

God-Bestowed Soul Rings appear as milky-white orbs that transform into pure Soul Power when crushed.

• Tang San's first God-Bestowed ring is absorbed almost instantly but initially forms as a ten-year ring 30.
• Its Soul Skill, Blue Silver Bamboo Dragonfly, is a growth-type flight ability whose speed and duration improve as the ring ages 31.
• A later God-Bestowed ring adapts to Tang San's endurance, ultimately reaching 65,000 years 235.

Formless Soul Rings

Formless Soul Rings are specialized God-Bestowed-type rings intended for a tenth Soul Ring slot 212.

• Their final age depends on the recipient's physique, spiritual power, and willpower 246.
• Bibi Dong uses one to reach level 100 and attach a tenth ring to her Soul-Eater Spider Emperor 212.
• Qian Renxue's Formless Soul Ring reaches five golden patterns before she ends the absorption, producing a five-hundred-thousand-year tenth ring 246.

Silver Light Orb Bindings

Lu Xian's Silver Light Orb can bind objects, elements, living creatures, and even people into Soul Rings. Bound Soul Beasts do not die; they can be summoned as Soul Skills and continue growing 21 75.

Soul Ring	Bound Target	Result
First	Broom	Begins as a ten-year white ring; after reaching the thousand-year threshold, the broom gains faster flight, wind control, regenerative bristles, and steel-like projectile bristles 1 18
Fourth	Bamboo viper “Xiao Qing”	The first successful living-creature binding. Xiao Qing can be summoned or recalled through Lu Xian's mental connection 21
Sixth	Concentrated sunlight / Sun Ray	Binding sunlight produces a ten-year ring and advances Lu Xian to Soul Emperor 41
Eighth	Lovesick Heartbreak Red	Creates a black ring with red streaks; subsequent age increases restore its golden veins, confirming that the fairy herb is not a one-use ring 115 134
Ninth	Bibi Dong	A six-hundred-thousand-year human Soul Ring that can summon Bibi Dong 144
Tenth	Lu Xian himself	A million-year golden Soul Ring with four Soul Skills 200
Eleventh	Bo Saixi	A five-hundred-thousand-year ring; Bo Saixi is granted a water-pattern divine mark after binding 241

Bound Living Rings

Living targets remain conscious individuals when summoned, rather than becoming inert power sources.

• Xiao Qing becomes affectionate toward Lu Xian after binding and can be dismissed into ring form at will 21.
• Bound creatures can grow stronger through Lu Xian's rewards; Xiao Qing eventually develops dragon-like traits, while Xiong Da gains strength comparable to a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast 41.
• Bibi Dong continues cultivating and absorbing her own Soul Rings after becoming Lu Xian's ninth ring; her growth adds further golden patterns to Lu Xian's ring 148.
• A bound person can be retracted to their unreleased ring state to avoid danger 241.
• Lu Xian and a bound ring share linked stakes: if Lu Xian dies, the bound individual cannot live; if the bound individual dies, Lu Xian's cultivation may be damaged and his realm may fall 241.

Notable Soul Skills

Blue Silver Bamboo Dragonfly

Tang San's growth-type Soul Skill forms a Blue Silver Grass propeller that allows flight.

• Initially permits only slow flight for several dozen seconds 31.
• At the century level, it enables mosquito-speed flight for ten minutes 41.
• Its duration and speed are expected to improve as its Soul Ring ages 31.

Come Forth, Bibi Dong

Lu Xian's ninth Soul Skill summons Bibi Dong from her state as his Soul Ring 144.

• Bibi Dong retains her martial souls, Soul Skills, and independent will while summoned 144 148.
• Lu Xian can forcibly withdraw her, returning her to the unreleased ring state 144.

Tenth Soul Ring Skills

Lu Xian's million-year tenth Soul Ring grants four documented Soul Skills 200.

• Heavenly Authority, Earthly Might — Borrows the power of heaven and earth to greatly enhance Lu Xian's Soul Power and physical strength.
• Swallowing Mountains and Rivers — Named among the tenth ring's four skills.
• Clouds Roll and Unfurl — Named among the tenth ring's four skills.
• Extinction of All — Nullifies Bibi Dong's Invincible Golden Body during their duel 200.
