Long Tian looked at the beauty before him, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
"It's good that you're alright."
Long Tian reached out, his fingertips lightly brushing past Shui Bing'er's hair.
A wisp of ice debris was deftly brushed away.
They stood extremely close, and Shui Bing'er could even smell the faint fragrance lingering on Long Tian.
This intimate gesture made Shui Bing'er's body stiffen slightly.
The blush on her face spread all the way to her delicate ears.
"Thank you so much for what happened just now."
Shui Bing'er lowered her head, her fingers somewhat nervously clutching the hem of her clothes.
"If it weren't for your assistance, I might have lost my life here today."
Shui Bing'er took a deep breath, trying hard to calm her emotions.
"I am Shui Bing'er of Skywater Academy. May I ask the name of my benefactor?"
Shui Bing'er raised her head, ripples flowing through her beautiful eyes.
Long Tian withdrew his hand, looking perfectly composed.
"Long Tian."
Long Tian pointed at the red-haired beauty walking over.
"This is my teacher, Spirit Kite Douluo."
Upon hearing that title, Shui Bing'er's heart immediately trembled.
Spirit Kite Douluo, one of Spirit Hall's elders and a Titled Douluo famous for many years.
"Shui Bing'er of Skywater Academy pays respects to Your Excellency Spirit Kite."
Shui Bing'er hurriedly bowed.
Her etiquette was impeccable, without the slightest flaw.
Spirit Kite Douluo waved her hand, her beautiful eyes sweeping over Shui Bing'er.
"I have heard of Skywater Academy's genius student."
Spirit Kite Douluo walked to Long Tian's side, a hint of approval in her voice.
"Now that I have seen you today, you truly live up to your reputation."
Spirit Kite Douluo turned her head and fixed her gaze on Long Tian.
"Long Tian, what exactly was that soul skill you used earlier?"
Spirit Kite Douluo finally could not hold back the question in her heart.
As a fire-attributed Titled Douluo, Spirit Kite Douluo knew all too well how difficult it was to counter and enhance attributes.
The support ability Long Tian had displayed earlier had completely overturned the Soul Master world's understanding.
"That was merely my second soul skill, Ice Soul Divine Armor."
Long Tian's tone remained calm.
"It can grant teammates an Ultimate Ice attribute enhancement and render them immune to most physical and energy damage."
Shui Bing'er listened from the side, her beautiful eyes widening.
"Ultimate Ice..."
Shui Bing'er murmured to herself.
No wonder that when she had used Repelling Ice Ring earlier, the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul within her had trembled as though it were about to submit.
"Long Tian, your enhancement is truly terrifying."
Shui Bing'er looked at Long Tian, her eyes filled with admiration.
"Under the effects of that soul skill, my Soul Power nearly increased severalfold. Even the purity of my ice attribute reached an unimaginable level."
Spirit Kite Douluo let out a sigh.
"I once believed that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect represented the pinnacle of support."
Spirit Kite Douluo looked at Long Tian, an unusual gleam flickering in her eyes.
"But now it seems that your Rainbow Dragon Martial Soul is the true god-tier support."
"If you grow stronger in the future, every powerhouse in this world will likely scramble to form a team with you."
Spirit Kite Douluo gave him extremely high praise.
To Soul Masters, a support capable of providing ultimate attribute enhancements was no different from a second life.
Long Tian remained calm, showing no pride despite the praise of a Titled Douluo.
"My Martial Soul is naturally suited for support."
Long Tian said softly.
Then, Long Tian stepped forward and walked toward the enormous Thunderclap Demon Wolf corpse.
Finishing blow. Kill confirmed.
A Soul Ring rose.
Shui Bing'er and Spirit Kite Douluo shifted their gazes toward it as well.
Above the massive corpse, a pitch-black Soul Ring was slowly condensing.
Black light flickered in the night, radiating violent energy fluctuations.
A Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
It was a priceless treasure that countless Soul Masters dreamed of obtaining.
Long Tian stopped before the black Soul Ring and extended his right hand.
Within him, the Rainbow Dragon's Heart was pounding wildly.
His True Dragon Bloodline boiled, driving Long Tian to seize this immense power.
Watching Long Tian's actions, Spirit Kite Douluo suddenly felt a sense of foreboding rise within her heart.
"Long Tian, you want to absorb it?"
Spirit Kite Douluo hurriedly shouted.
Long Tian nodded slightly.
"Exactly."
"Nonsense!"
Spirit Kite Douluo's expression changed drastically as she strode forward to stop him.
"You are only level thirty right now. The limit for your third Soul Ring is at the millennium level!"
Spirit Kite Douluo's voice was full of urgency.
"The energy contained within a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring is incredibly violent. Your current body simply cannot withstand it!"
"Furthermore, when a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast dies, it produces a spiritual shockwave that will directly destroy your spiritual world!"
Shui Bing'er hurried over as well.
"Long Tian, Her Excellency is right."
Shui Bing'er's face was filled with worry.
"A Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring is far too terrifying. Even a level-forty Soul Ancestor would face near-certain death trying to absorb one."
"Don't act on impulse. We can search the Star Dou Great Forest for a Millennium Soul Beast suitable for you."
Shui Bing'er even wanted to reach out and grab Long Tian's sleeve.
However.
Long Tian ignored their attempts to dissuade him.
His right hand had already pressed against the pitch-black Soul Ring.
Nine-colored light abruptly erupted from Long Tian's palm.
"Long Tian!"
Spirit Kite Douluo cried out in alarm.
But everything was already too late.
The instant the pitch-black Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring touched the nine-colored light, it transformed into a violent black stream of light that surged madly into Long Tian's body through his arm.
Violent lightning power ran rampant through the forest.
Spirit Kite Douluo stood frozen in place, both hands clenched tightly, her eyes full of anxiety and self-reproach.
If this astonishingly gifted disciple were to explode and die before her eyes, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.
Shui Bing'er also shut her eyes nervously, unable to bear watching the gruesome scene that might follow.
The black light was like a wild beast that had broken free of its reins, instantly flooding Long Tian's entire body through his right arm.
The savage lightning power rampaged wildly through his meridians.
Purple-black lightning patterns emerged across Long Tian's skin.
His meridians swelled violently under the impact of that immense energy.
Long Tian closed his eyes tightly.
A dull sound came from the bones within his body.
At that moment, the Nine-Colored True Dragon Bloodline fully awakened.
The Rainbow Dragon's Heart pounded powerfully within his chest. With every beat, it released incomparably pure Nine-Colored Divine Light.
This supremely noble power coursed through his limbs and bones, forcibly taming the violent lightning energy.
After encountering the Nine-Colored Divine Light, the savage lightning.
Melted away like ice and snow.
And became incomparably docile.
The physique granted by the True Dragon inheritance had long surpassed the limits of ordinary people.
Absorbing a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring was not difficult for the current Long Tian at all.
The violent energy was stripped away and transformed bit by bit, ultimately merging into his bones and meridians.
The damaged meridians were reshaped under the nourishment of the Nine-Colored Divine Light, becoming tougher and broader than before.
