Yu Changge said with a smile, "Dad, you can test me. With my current physique, my second soul ring can absorb at least a four-thousand-year-level soul ring."
"Also, those two immortal herbs gave me the effect of being immune to all poisons, and I now have tremendous resistance to both ice and fire attributes."
"And Xiao Huang naturally has the same effect. In other words, from now on, even if Xiao Huang is attacked by something poisonous, it won't be poisoned. And when I recall it, I naturally won't be poisoned either."
The moment he said that, Yu Tianqing and the other were both rather shocked.
Originally, an external beast martial soul could not add attributes to the soul master himself, which was already an enormous drawback. On top of that, the soul master himself was as fragile as an auxiliary-type soul master.
But compared with those flaws, there was an even more serious problem: the negative statuses Xiao Huang suffered would feed back to the soul master himself.
And the most common negative status was naturally poisoning. The ice poison and fire poison mentioned before also counted among them.
Now, this drawback had been perfectly resolved.
This immunity to all poisons could even dissolve Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor Poison. And on this continent, if one had to say whose poison could surpass the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor Poison, then only Bibi Dong after becoming a Titled Douluo would qualify.
But Bibi Dong was his sworn elder sister, so naturally, she would not make a move against him.
Besides, even Bibi Dong's poison might not necessarily be impossible to dissolve!
Yu Changge believed it would depend on his own strength. After all, the benefits those two immortal herbs had given him now were only the most preliminary ones.
He had merely absorbed them at an initial level. There was still a great deal of medicinal effect remaining in his body.
"Besides that, when I was circulating soul power in the spring just now, after Xiao Huang advanced, the speed at which my soul power circulated increased several times over. I should barely count as having squeezed into the ranks of geniuses now."
If his original innate soul power speed had been comparable to level two, then now it should be roughly comparable to around level seven.
This was already an enormous improvement.
Xiao Huang should now count as having truly succeeded in its second awakening, becoming dragonized. From the outside, it looked like a true Golden Sacred Dragon cub.
And as soul rings were bestowed, its body would definitely grow larger step by step, while his talent would naturally rise subtly as well.
It was still the same saying: the current changes were only the initial changes after taking the immortal herbs. In the end, it would still take some time to completely absorb the medicinal effects remaining in each of their bodies.
"Dad, Mom, now it's your turn to absorb the immortal herbs. I'll keep watch for you here," Yu Changge said.
Yu Tianqing said, "Don't you still have an immortal herb that increases spiritual power left unabsorbed?"
Yu Changge said with a smile, "I absorbed too much in one go this time. I plan to wait a while before absorbing that one."
Including Xiao Huang's herb, strictly speaking, he had absorbed three immortal herbs. Too much of a good thing could be harmful. Even if the medicinal effect of Wangchuan Autumn Dew was relatively gentle, he could not take too great a risk.
Yu Tianqing was also somewhat curious and emotional. "I never expected there to be an immortal herb here that can increase spiritual power. Then if you absorb this immortal herb, won't you have hope of obtaining a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring in the future?"
Yu Shuyao also said from the side, "Elder Yu should have told you before, right? A ten-thousand-year soul ring is different from a thousand-year soul ring. A ten-thousand-year soul ring contains the resentment of the soul beast after its death, and this resentment impact can only possibly be endured once a soul master reaches level fifty."
"If you want your fifth soul ring to be ten thousand years old, then your first four soul rings must be two yellow and two purple, and they need to be as close as possible to the limits your body can endure. Only then will the success rate be greater."
Yu Changge nodded. "Maybe it's possible. Dad, Mom, I'm actually not too clear on this point either."
"The records regarding Wangchuan Autumn Dew only say that it can increase spiritual power. However, according to my guess, it can also let me cultivate a pair of good eyes."
In the original work, he remembered that once Wangchuan Autumn Dew was taken, it could cultivate Fiery Golden Eyes. Although that was an exaggeration, it still showed how extraordinary this immortal herb was.
Even if he did not have Purple Demon Eye like Tang San, its effect on him would still not be small.
Although when Tang San absorbed a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring, he had relied on the environment of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and only barely completed it, and even with his spiritual power realm, it had seemed extremely dangerous.
Logically speaking, it should be impossible for him to absorb a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring, assuming his soul ring configuration were the same as Tang San's.
Unfortunately, his soul ring configuration was going to crush Tang San's, so even without Purple Demon Eye, he still had a chance at a ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring.
Absorbing soul rings of different ages provided soul masters with an all-attribute increase, an all-around enhancement, and that naturally included spiritual power!
One had to know that other soul masters did not have Tang San's eye-training method that could cultivate spiritual power, and their methods of increasing spiritual power were limited. Aside from natural growth, there was only the bestowal of soul rings.
As for the bestowal of immortal herbs and soul bones, except for a few rare cases, they did not have those at all.
So in truth, as long as his third soul ring could absorb an eight- or nine-thousand-year soul ring, then his fourth soul ring would definitely be able to absorb a ten-thousand-year one. This also corresponded with what his mother had just said.
Two hours later.
Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao had both finished absorbing their respective immortal herbs.
Yu Tianqing said somewhat excitedly, "As expected of immortal herbs. My soul power rose by one level. I'm already level seventy-six now."
"However, the increase in soul power is secondary. The main thing is that the speed at which my soul power circulates has clearly increased by quite a bit, and my own lightning attribute has improved by at least twenty to thirty percent!"
Yu Shuyao also said with a smile from the side, "My situation is about the same. I'm now at level seventy-five soul power, and my lightning attribute has also increased a lot."
Although these two immortal herbs had not advanced their lightning attribute to the so-called ultimate attribute, it could still be said to have drawn much closer.
Wanting to rely on a single immortal herb to form an acquired ultimate attribute was, after all, still too difficult. Even in the original work, after Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix evolved twice, his Ten-Headed Fire Phoenix was still not ultimate fire.
Yu Tianqing was so excited that wisps of lightning surged all over his body. He clenched his fists. "At this rate, within two years—as long as I'm given two years—I have hope of breaking through to Soul Douluo!"
Previously, when their son had said that after they absorbed immortal herbs, they had hope of becoming Titled Douluo within ten years, they had actually still not quite believed it in their hearts.
It was not that they did not believe their son. The main thing was that this was simply too inconceivable.
But at this rate, even if during their time as Soul Douluo they only improved by one level a year, they would still just about be able to break through to Titled Douluo in around ten years!
