Displaying Stats, or Still Too Dependent on Skill

The third soul ring corresponds to "Energy."

This soul ring provides him with only one passive effect: Energy Siphon.

It can automatically absorb all free-roaming energy from the surrounding environment and efficiently convert it into the most fundamental "Holy Spirit Power" to replenish himself.

As long as he isn't instantly absorbing destructive energy that exceeds his endurance limit, he possesses nearly infinite soul power support!

The fourth soul ring is "Life."

Active soul skill: Light of Resurrection. It can rapidly heal all physical injuries on himself or allies and dispel negative status effects.

With the increase in the soul ring's age and his own comprehension of the laws of life, he may even touch upon the forbidden realm of "resurrecting the dead and bringing back the departed" in the future.

Passive effect: Blessing of the Holy Spirit. This triggers automatically when he suffers fatal damage sufficient to break through "Void" and "Elemental Control," consuming Holy Spirit Power to "instantly revive on the spot at full health!"

It could be said to be extremely shameless.

The fifth soul ring is "Samsara." Compared to the "Energy" ring which only provides a passive effect, "Samsara" is the opposite, providing only one active soul skill.

Active soul skill: Mark of Samsara. It can strike a target with an invisible "Mark of Samsara."

Those marked will fall into a "Samsara Dream" constructed and guided by the caster's mental power, experiencing a brief yet incredibly realistic hundred-year life cycle within the dream.

Furthermore, the content of the samsara can be guided.

Used well, it can temper mental power; used poorly, it can directly destroy another person's mental power. It is quite useful.

In addition to the stunning soul skills granted by these five major soul rings, the "Holy Spirit Domain" effect he obtained at the beginning of his martial soul awakening is also simple and brutal.

Within the Holy Spirit Domain: All his own attributes are increased by 100%, and he unconditionally suppresses all attributes of "people, spirits, and beasts" within the domain whose life level is lower than his by 50% (multiplicative; Dai Mubai's might be additive).

"It seems there are a few too few offensive soul skills..."

Zhao Linchuan finished his inspection and stroked his chin, lost in thought.

"'Elemental Control' counts as half, and I mainly rely on the 'stats' brought by the martial soul itself and these functional, high-survivability soul skills to crush opponents... Well, combined with those soul bone skills and self-created soul skills, it's enough."

"Dealing with ordinary opponents is probably like a max-level god-geared player returning to the novice village in a past-life game; even basic attacks have a crushing effect."

Flashes of the powerful skills granted by his soul bones crossed his mind, along with several "self-created soul skills" he had pondered over the past few years, such as that simple, brutal, and always effective "Left/Right Fist Warning."

"However..." Zhao Linchuan sighed softly, a hint of "Versailles-style" annoyance appearing on his face, "The Puni martial soul is great in every way, except that it requires too much 'operation' and 'understanding'."

"Although these soul skill effects are strong, how to combine them, when to use them, and how to deal with different enemies all require precise 'control' and 'prediction'."

"Is there no such thing as... well, a martial soul that is simpler and more brainless to operate, where you just unleash a burst of damage upon meeting, or stand still and make your opponent despair?"

Just then, with a soft "click," the door was pushed open.

Xiao Wu pushed in an exquisite silver dining cart. She had changed into a pink and white dress today, her long scorpion braid meticulously groomed, and a sweet smile on her face, making her look exceptionally charming and lovely.

Seeing that Zhao Linchuan had woken up and was sitting on the edge of the bed, her eyes lit up, and she called out softly: "Young Master, are you awake? I've chosen breakfast for you; it's all the flavors you usually like..."

"...Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Wu. Come, let's eat together."

After breakfast, the four of them met at the hotel entrance as agreed.

Zhu Zhuqing was still dressed in black, standing quietly to the side with her head slightly lowered.

Ning Rongrong wore a pretty goose-yellow dress, but her mind was clearly not on her attire.

Her lively eyes darted back and forth between Zhao Linchuan and Xiao Wu, filled with curiosity, exploration, and a hint of gossipy excitement.

Zhao Linchuan felt uncomfortable under her gaze and glared at her irritably, "Hey, what are you looking at?"

"Have flowers grown on Xiao Wu's face or mine?"

Ning Rongrong stretched out her fair fingers and pointed vaguely at the two of them, her little face looking very "serious," "Me? I'm conducting a very serious observation!"

"I'm seeing if you have... well, 'eaten' my little sister Xiao Wu!"

"You're just a young girl, what kind of messy things are you thinking about all day!" Zhao Linchuan glanced at her with disdain, though the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, "Simply unreasonable!"

Just then, the steady sound of wheels approached from afar.

A carriage that looked simple but was made of solid materials and exquisite craftsmanship, exuding a low-key and steady temperament, slowly drove to the front of the hotel.

The two horses pulling the carriage were extraordinary, their coats oily and bright, their steps steady and powerful.

Driving the carriage was a man with an extremely burly and majestic build.

He wore dark gold half-body armor. He didn't wear a helmet, revealing a square face with firm features, eyes as calm as an ancient well, and an aura restrained to the extreme.

At first glance, he seemed like an ordinary person with a stronger physique.

But the moment he sat there, he was like an immovable small mountain, giving people an inexplicable sense of reliability and oppression.

The carriage stopped steadily.

The burly man jumped off the carriage shaft with agile movements, strode to within three steps of Zhao Linchuan, knelt on one knee without hesitation, cupped his hands, and said respectfully:

"Subordinate Jin Da, greets the Young Master!"

Zhao Linchuan looked at the man who looked like he was cast from gold, a flash of surprise in his eyes, "Jin Da? Why are you here?"

Jin Da raised his head, a simple and loyal expression on his face, and reported truthfully: "Replying to the Young Master, it is by the orders of Lady Yue Shen and Lady Yan Fei."

"Although the two ladies are well aware of the Young Master's divine might, one must always have someone to attend to trivial matters and ensure complete protection while traveling abroad."

"Therefore, they ordered this subordinate to follow and await the Young Master's commands, so as to safeguard the Young Master's safety."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Linchuan understood and nodded. "They are thoughtful. Since you have come, then come along."

"Thank you, Young Master!" Jin Da stood up, respectfully stepped aside, and opened the carriage door.

Zhao Linchuan was the first to board the spacious and comfortable carriage, with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing following closely behind.

Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes, stood on no ceremony, and grinning, she squeezed in after them, familiarly finding a good seat by the window.

Through the gap in the lifted curtain, she curiously sized up the tall back of the person driving the carriage outside.

"Young Master, where shall we go?" Jin Da's steady voice came from the front.

Zhao Linchuan leaned back against the soft cushion, pondered for a moment, and said casually, "No rush. Let's head toward the Star Dou Great Forest and look around."

"There is no need to hurry. Just take it slow and enjoy the scenery along the way."

(The next summon will be the Young Master of Fate or the Great Master of Fate.)

You all might not know this, but Puni's seven seals are not the entirety of his power.

Because the macro-universe could not contain his physical form, he performed a self-seal, stripping the seven great laws, such as Nothingness, out of his body.

As for those active skills (Holy Spirit Magic Flash), they will become available once the spirit rings are upgraded.

Finally, Puni is currently just a beam of light, and there is still plenty of room for his stats to grow, so there is no need to worry too much about his current values.
