Where is the hundred-year soul ring?

Su Changqing and Hu Liena strolled through the marketplace in Martial Soul City like a couple, until noon when they found a restaurant to eat.

"Little Brother Changqing."

"What's up, Sister Nana?"

"You..."

Hu Liena pursed her cherry lips, "You're already level forty-five. You definitely won't be staying at Martial Soul Hall Academy for long. Do you have any plans for the future?"

"The future?"

Su Changqing smiled, "I plan to graduate next year. After graduation, I'll leave Martial Soul Hall for a while to gain some experience. I'm used to freedom, after all, and I can't stay in one place for too long."

Hearing Su Changqing's answer, Hu Liena's face showed extreme disappointment.

But more than that, it was reluctance.

"Changqing, you're a disciple of the teacher. If you stay at Martial Soul Hall, all resources will be directed towards you. Can you please not go?"

As she said this, Hu Liena suddenly grabbed Su Changqing's hand, her face filled with reluctance as she looked at him.

Su Changqing said, "Sister Nana, I know you don't want me to go, but the teacher knows about this. He also agreed to let me go out and train on my own. This is a necessary lesson for me to become a strong person."

As soon as he said this, Hu Liena's delicate eyebrows furrowed. She didn't know how to answer Su Changqing.

Even her own teacher agreed, so what reason did she have to keep him here?

Seeing Hu Liena's dejected look, Su Changqing raised his hand and patted her head.

"Sister Nana, I'm just going out for training, not disappearing forever. Don't worry, I definitely won't forget you. I'll always remember you, no matter what." Su Changqing said in a gentle tone.

Hu Liena pouted, her cheeks puffing out, looking rather cute.

"If you dare to forget me, no matter where you run to on the Douluo Continent, I will definitely find you and beat you to death!"

"Alright, alright, whatever you say. I said I won't forget you, and I won't."

"That's more like it!"

Hu Liena felt much better, but her mood was still low.

She truly didn't want Su Changqing to leave. Perhaps she had fallen for him the moment he saved her from the Wolf Bandits.

After they finished eating, the two left the restaurant and walked side-by-side on the streets of Martial Soul City.

"Sister Nana, I have something to go to the Star Dou Great Forest for. You should head back first," Su Changqing said.

Hu Liena's delicate eyebrows furrowed upon hearing this. "You want to send me away just because you're going to the Star Dou Great Forest? Do you even have me, your Sister Nana, in your heart?"

"Uh... then let's go together?"

"Okay, let's go together!"

The two departed from Martial Soul City and hired a carriage to the Star Dou Great Forest.

They arrived at the outer area, and the earthy scent and the fresh smell of grass and trees rushed towards them. Towering ancient trees blocked out the sky, with only scattered patches of light filtering through the dense layers of leaves onto the ground.

Compared to the last time he came with Bibi Dong, Su Changqing felt much less oppressed this time.

With his current strength, unless he was extremely unlucky, it was almost impossible to encounter any danger in the outer area.

Su Changqing began to release his spiritual power. Relying on the records in the Immortal Herb Manual, he started searching for the location of the Immortal Herb over a large area.

After searching for about half an hour, Su Changqing finally determined the direction.

"Found it! I just don't know what its cultivation level is!"

A smile appeared on Su Changqing's face, and he then took Hu Liena's hand.

This scene couldn't help but startle Hu Liena, her heart rate unconsciously quickening.

Why was he suddenly holding her hand?

"Hold on tight, I'm going to accelerate."

Hearing this, Hu Liena instantly understood Su Changqing's intention. A hint of disappointment flashed across her shy, pretty face.

So he just wanted to take her and run!

The last time Su Changqing was chasing speed, he was still holding her. Why wasn't he holding her this time?

Although Hu Liena had her doubts, she didn't choose to ask. Instead, she nodded in agreement.

"Mhm..."

Su Changqing led Hu Liena through the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest. Wherever they passed, the Soul Beasts collectively avoided them.

The absolute suppression brought by the terrifying power of light made the Soul Beasts in the outer area almost unable to resist. The entire process was very smooth.

Su Changqing and Hu Liena ran for about an hour, arriving at the entrance of a cave.

The two stopped.

"It should be inside the cave," Su Changqing said, looking into the dark cave.

"Then let's go in quickly."

"No rush."

"What's wrong?"

Su Changqing suddenly hooked the corner of his mouth, turned his body, and looked at the endless, tree-covered forest ahead, his expression turning cold.

"Come out. You've been following us for so long, you're quite patient!"

As Su Changqing's voice fell, a masked man in black appeared from a clump of grass not far ahead.

Hu Liena's expression also turned cold upon seeing the man in black.

Who dared to assassinate her, the Saintess of the Martial Soul Hall?

"Who are you?!" Hu Liena asked coldly.

The man in black didn't answer her, instead focusing his gaze on Su Changqing.

"With a mere cultivation of the fourth ring, how did you discover me?"

Su Changqing sneered upon hearing this.

"Can your stealth techniques hide from my spiritual exploration?"

Hearing Su Changqing's answer, the man in black's eyes flashed with anger.

"At such a young age, with this cultivation and strong spiritual power, if you grow up, you'll definitely be a hegemon. What a shame, a hero's life cut short!"

As soon as the man in black finished speaking, his soul power fluctuations emanated.

Six soul rings, two yellow, two purple, and two black, rose up. Then, a giant axe appeared in his hand.

"A Weapon Spirit, a Soul Emperor at level sixty-three. It seems you're quite confident you can kill me," Su Changqing said calmly.

The man in black replied, "I've long investigated your Martial Soul. It suppresses all fire, darkness, and light-attribute Martial Souls. Your soul power isn't high, but you always win by suppressing others with your Martial Soul. My Soul Breaking Axe won't be suppressed by you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the axe instantly erupted with a sharp edge, causing Su Changqing and Hu Liena's bodies to feel a stinging pain.

"Is that so? If you think all my victories are due to Martial Soul suppression, I think you'll soon realize how foolish your idea is!"

With that, Su Changqing also released his Martial Soul. A phantom image of a humanoid rabbit appeared behind him, with two giant light fists hovering beside Su Changqing's arms.

Three purple and one black soul rings rose up!

Looking at the opponent's soul ring configuration, the man in black's eyes widened instantly.

"What?"

He had heard before that Su Changqing had an exceeding spirit ring ratio of one yellow and two purple, and that he had broken through to the fourth ring, with the fourth soul ring undoubtedly being a thousand-year one. But now, he was completely dumbfounded!

Where were the hundred-year soul rings?

Why was his first soul ring also purple???
