| Lin Ye — First Soul Ring: 700-year yellow | 2 | Absorbed at Level 20+ despite the usual first-ring limit; granted Evil God Thirteen Slashes and raised him to Level 22. |
| Lin Ye — Second Soul Ring: nearly 2,000-year purple | 4 | Taken from the Darkrock Giant Rhino. Raised Lin Ye from Level 22 to 25 and granted Evil God Guard. |

| Lin Ye — Third Soul Ring: Ten-Thousand-Year black | 31 33 32 | Lin Ye endures the Soul Beast's lingering will and completes the absorption; his Soul Power reaches Level 37. |
| Zhu Zhuqing — Third Soul Ring: nearly 2,000-year purple | 50 51 | Absorbed from the Golden-Armored Shadow Leopard; grants Invincible Golden Body and raises her from Level 30 to 36. |
| Zhu Zhuqing — Fourth Soul Ring: 5,000-year purple | 107 116 108 | Obtained after identifying her need for a direct frontal-attack skill; her four-ring configuration is later shown as yellow, yellow, purple, purple. The ring comes from the Shadow Wind Demon Tiger, which she kills before beginning absorption under Lin Ye and Yue Guan's protection. |
| Lin Ye — Fourth Soul Ring: 30,000-year black | 116 138 82 84 | His fourth ring is shown at the Ten-Thousand-Year tier; a successful thirty-thousand-year absorption at Level 40 is later referenced. The source is the Three-Eyed Thunder Demon Tiger, subdued by Yue Guan before Lin Ye begins absorption. |
| Lin Ye — First four rings evolve to black | 131 | After Devouring the Ten-Headed Solar Serpent's inner core and body, Lin Ye's first two purple rings evolve into Ten-Thousand-Year black rings, leaving him with four black rings. |
| Lin Ye — Fifth Soul Ring: black | 141 152 | The wounded fifty-thousand-year Netherworld Thunderstorm Tiger is secured for Lin Ye; he is later revealed with five Ten-Thousand-Year rings. |
| Zhu Zhuqing — Fifth Soul Ring: 32,000-year black | 258 259 | Absorbed from the Shadow Demon Sovereign Cat; raises her to Level 53 and greatly improves her speed and physique. Grants Netherworld Light, which also places her body in a Super Armor state during its three-minute use. |
| Lin Ye — Sixth Soul Ring: 60,000-year black | 270 266 279 | Absorbed from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. Absorption raises Lin Ye seven levels at once, from Level 60 to Level 67, aided by the immense energy of the previously fused Evil God Orb. Grants Evil Tiger Annihilation Strike. |

| Lin Ye — Seventh Soul Ring: Hundred-Thousand-Year red | 293 294 307 | A Divine Bestowed Soul Ring forms according to Lin Ye's endurance, allowing him to obtain a red seventh ring without hunting a Soul Beast. |
| Zhu Zhuqing — Sixth Soul Ring: approximately 70,000-year black | 298 336 299 | She begins absorbing a ring from a Cyclone Spirit Cat nearing seventy thousand years; successful absorption raises her from Level 60 to Level 63. Her later six-ring configuration confirms a black sixth ring. |
| Lin Ye — Eighth Soul Ring: Titan Giant Ape's Hundred-Thousand-Year ring | 332 334 341 | Lin Ye begins absorbing the Titan Giant Ape's red ring at Level 80 and later states that he already possesses an eighth ring. He subsequently displays six black and two red rings at Level 85. |
| Bibi Dong — Sky Azure Bull Python's Hundred-Thousand-Year ring | 332 | Begins absorbing the Sky Azure Bull Python's red ring at Level 98 while Lin Ye absorbs the Titan Giant Ape's ring; both endure violent energy and the beasts' lingering resentment. |
| Zhu Zhuqing — Seventh Soul Ring: Hundred-Thousand-Year red | 335 336 337 | A Divine Bestowed Soul Ring becomes red after ten hours of absorption; Zhu Zhuqing rises from Level 70 to Level 75. |
| Lin Ye — First six rings evolve to red | 373 | Devouring the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Origin Divine Light completes the evolution of his first six black rings into Hundred-Thousand-Year rings, giving him eight red rings and strengthening his Soul Skills. |
| Lin Ye — Ninth Soul Ring: Million-Year scarlet-gold | 376 377 | Obtained after killing the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. Lin Ye devours its remnant soul and spends three days refining the ring's energy; his Soul Power rises from Level 90 to peak Level 97, and his body is extensively reconstructed and strengthened. |
| Lin Ye — All nine rings receive an age increase | 378 | The Evil God's blessing increases each ring's age by ten thousand years. His first eight red rings reach 110,000 years each, while his Million-Year ninth ring also gains ten thousand years and stronger energy fluctuations. |
| Lin Ye — Nine-ring configuration publicly revealed | 380 | Displays eight red Hundred-Thousand-Year rings and one crimson-gold Million-Year ring before Bibi Dong and Zhu Zhuqing. The ninth ring's pressure forces the Level 98 Bibi Dong backward and cracks the amethyst on her Papal Scepter. |
Function and Mechanics
- Soul Masters must obtain a new Soul Ring after reaching each ten-level cultivation threshold; without a third ring, for example, a Level 30 Soul Master cannot continue advancing. 28
- Ordinary Soul Rings appear after a Soul Beast dies, including the Hundred-Thousand-Year rings left by the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape. 332
- Absorption strengthens Soul Power and physical constitution, but high-level rings can violently damage meridians and carry the dead Soul Beast's lingering spiritual will. 4 31
- A Soul Ring grants a Soul Skill upon successful absorption, such as Lin Ye's Evil God Thirteen Slashes and Evil God Guard, or Zhu Zhuqing's Invincible Golden Body. 2 4 51
- A ring's age and attributes must be suitable for the recipient's constitution, Martial Soul, and intended skill set. Lin Ye recommends speed-based feline or leopard Soul Beasts for Zhu Zhuqing's third ring, then powerful tiger, leopard, or lion Soul Beasts when she needs a frontal-attack skill for her fourth ring. 44 107
- Conventional absorption limits include a first-ring limit of 423 years and a third-ring range of roughly one thousand to eighteen hundred years. Ten-Thousand-Year rings are ordinarily first attempted at the Level 50 Soul King stage, when physical constitution and spiritual strength are sufficient to reduce the risks. Lin Ye exceeds these limits through his Martial Soul, Devour, and improvements from Immortal Herbs. 2 29 44
- Exceeding the body's endurance can cause death by bodily explosion regardless of the recipient's talent. Lingering spiritual attacks from Ten-Thousand-Year beasts can render ordinary Soul Masters unconscious or cause mental collapse. 31 83
- The seventh ring provides Martial Soul True Body, also described as Martial Soul Avatar. Lin Ye uses his seventh Soul Skill to transform into a gigantic Dark Demon Evil God Tiger during his battle with the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King. 141 169 373
- Slaughter City prevents Soul Rings from manifesting and blocks the use of their Soul Skills. Lin Ye and Zhu Zhuqing both experience this restriction on entry, and Lin Ye confirms that his rings and skills return after leaving Hell Road. 117 131
- Higher ring ages strengthen the corresponding Soul Skills. Both the evolution of Lin Ye's first six rings to red and the later ten-thousand-year age increase produce further improvements to his combat abilities. 373 378
- Martial Soul limitations can restrict ring acquisition: the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda permits no more than seven Soul Rings and prevents its user from breaking through Level 80. 356

| Hundred-Thousand-Year | Red | Lin Ye's Divine Bestowed seventh ring; Zhu Zhuqing's Divine Bestowed seventh ring. Lin Ye later possesses eight red rings, each raised to 110,000 years by the Evil God's blessing. 307 336 373 378 |
| Million-Year | Scarlet-gold / crimson-gold | Lin Ye's ninth ring from the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King, whose power greatly exceeds that of Hundred-Thousand-Year rings. 376 377 380 |
Exceptional Properties
Evolution Through Devour
Soul Ring ages are conventionally believed to be fixed once absorbed. Lin Ye's Devour ability breaks this rule by converting absorbed energy into cultivation and ring-age growth. 283 284
- Lin Ye's first yellow ring evolves into a purple Thousand-Year ring after he Devours Wolf Raiders. 17
- Devouring the Ten-Headed Solar Serpent advances Lin Ye's first two rings from purple to black, giving him four Ten-Thousand-Year rings. 131
- Energy transferred to Zhu Zhuqing during their Martial Soul Fusion Skill upgrades her first two rings to purple and her fourth ring to black. 283
- Devour can share converted energy with Zhu Zhuqing while they are fused as the Dark Nether Tiger. 279 283
- After Devouring Dai Tianfeng, Lin Ye's sixth ring develops a dark-red glow within its black color and approaches the Hundred-Thousand-Year threshold. He reasons that Devour could eventually raise all of his rings to that tier. 284
- The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's Origin Divine Light completes the transformation of Lin Ye's first six rings from black to red. His seventh and eighth rings are already red, producing a full eight-ring Hundred-Thousand-Year configuration. 373
Divine Bestowed Soul Rings
A Divine Bestowed Soul Ring is granted through the Evil God's inheritance rather than produced by hunting a Soul Beast. 293 294
- Its final age depends on the recipient's physical constitution, spiritual power, and endurance; the longer the recipient withstands its energy, the stronger the ring becomes. 293 335
- The resulting Soul Skill is stated to be perfectly suited to the recipient's Martial Soul. 293
- Lin Ye receives his seventh Divine Bestowed Soul Ring after reaching Level 70. 293 294
- Lin Ye later gives another Divine Bestowed Soul Ring to Zhu Zhuqing for her seventh ring. 334 335
- The gifted ring is initially contained in a golden bead. Lin Ye explains that it is an Evil God reward which he does not immediately need because he already possesses his eighth ring. 334
- Zhu Zhuqing withstands ten hours of absorption and pushes the ring to the Hundred-Thousand-Year tier, obtaining a final configuration of purple, purple, purple, black, black, black, red and reaching Level 75. 336
- Bibi Dong personally verifies Zhu Zhuqing's red seventh ring and Level 75 cultivation, recognizing the extraordinary value of the Divine Bestowed Soul Ring. 337
Million-Year Ring Absorption
The Deep Sea Demonic Whale King's death produces a scarlet-gold ring explicitly identified as a Million-Year Soul Ring. Its energy is described as vastly exceeding that of Hundred-Thousand-Year rings, with its formation exerting enough pressure to create tiny cracks in the surrounding space. 376
Lin Ye begins absorption aboard the Black Pearl beside the whale's corpse. The ring's energy tears through his meridians and threatens to make his body explode, while the whale's remnant soul invades his Spiritual Sea in an attempt to seize his body. Devour suppresses and converts the violent energy, but the spiritual confrontation must also be resolved before the absorption can be completed. 376
Lin Ye's spiritual body transforms into the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger and devours the whale's remnant soul. He then spends three days refining the remaining energy, reconstructing his body and advancing seven levels from Level 90 to peak Level 97. The completed ninth ring leaves him with eight Hundred-Thousand-Year rings and one Million-Year ring. 377
Age Increase Through the Evil God's Blessing
The Evil God's blessing provides another means of increasing already-absorbed ring ages. After Lin Ye obtains his ninth ring, the blessing adds ten thousand years to each of his nine Soul Rings. His first eight rings advance from one hundred thousand to one hundred and ten thousand years, while his ninth ring retains its Million-Year classification with a further ten-thousand-year increase. All corresponding Soul Skills receive another boost in power. 378
