Soul Ring

Biodata

Power Progression

Overview

Soul Rings condense from slain Soul Beasts and are absorbed by Soul Masters to break through major Soul Power thresholds and gain Soul Skills. Jin Feng's Golden Horned Behemoth differs from conventional Externalized Martial Souls: although his first ring was initially meant for the externalized beast, it rejected the ring, requiring Jin Feng himself to absorb it. His resulting skills can be used through either Martial Soul Possession or the externalized Golden Horned Behemoth. 7

Soul Ring age is a major measure of power. Jin Feng repeatedly exceeds ordinary absorption limits through his strengthened physique, the Golden Horned Behemoth's Origin Blood, and energy gained from Devouring soul-beast corpses. 19 41 80

Known Ring Colors and Ages

Acquisition and Absorption

• A Soul Beast's Soul Ring condenses after its death; Jin Feng draws the ring with Soul Power before beginning absorption. 7
• Absorption channels violent ring energy through the user's body, including their flesh, bones, and meridians. 7
• High-age rings may carry a Soul Beast's residual resentment, capable of attacking the absorber's soul. Jin Feng's Golden Horned Behemoth Origin Blood protects his mind from this danger. 19 80
• A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring can grant multiple Soul Skills; Jin Feng receives four from the Titan Giant Ape. 80
• Jin Feng's rings may yield more than ordinary rings: his 1,500-year first ring grants two skills, and his fourth-ring gains comprise two ring skills plus a skill from the devoured Origin Black Pearl. 7 52

Soul Ring Evolution

Strengthen

Jin Feng awakens the innate secret technique Strengthen after reaching level 40. Energy that the Golden Horned Behemoth cannot refine from devoured Soul Beast corpses is stored within Jin Feng and can be redirected to increase a Soul Ring's age or empower Soul Skills and physical strength. 41

• Evolves Jin Feng's first ring from thousand-year to 15,000-year Ten-Thousand-Year level. 41
• Greatly enhances the defense and lethality of Golden Scale Body Protection and Golden Light Slash. 41
• Can temporarily multiply the power of a Soul Skill or Jin Feng's physical attacks. 41
• Can also be applied to other Soul Masters' rings. Jin Feng raises Niu Gao's ninth ring by 11,000 years, transforming it into a genuine Hundred-Thousand-Year ring and granting an additional Soul Skill. 62
• Jin Feng later upgrades the ninth rings of Dugu Bo, the Great Elder, and the Second Elder to Hundred-Thousand-Year level using accumulated energy. 83 84

• At five rings, Jin Feng's displayed configuration is four black rings and one red ring. 92
