One had to know that a Soul Ring obtained through sacrifice could be absorbed by a Soul Master without any loss. Depending on the body's endurance, they could directly obtain a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring.
"Because of the little rabbit."
"Xiao Wu?" A Rou's brow lifted slightly.
She found it hard to believe. Why did this matter involve her daughter?
"Let me tell you a story." Qian Chenzhou sat directly atop a rock.
"Once, a little rabbit entered the human world. After spending an unknown number of years with a human boy, she fell in love with him. When the boy needed a Soul Ring, he devised a plan that made the little rabbit willingly sacrifice herself."
"The young man directly obtained a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring."
"However, this method was not exclusive to him alone. That young man's father had also obtained his ninth hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring this way."
A Rou looked at the child before her, her gaze flickering uncertainly.
Though he had not said it outright, every word pointed toward Xiao Wu. She did not understand why her daughter would fall in love with a human child.
And what did he mean by saying it was not exclusive to just one person?
That child's father had also obtained a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring through such despicable means?!
"How can I believe what you say?" A Rou kept her eyes fixed on Qian Chenzhou.
A story was ultimately just a story, but now that she knew in advance, she could not help but harbor doubts.
"What does whether you believe me have to do with me?" Qian Chenzhou looked at A Rou. "Is whether you believe it or not important to me?"
A Rou fell silent.
That was right. He had no reason to deceive her.
If he truly wanted a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring, he could have forced her to sacrifice herself long ago.
Three days later, they gradually woke up.
"Uncle Golden Crocodile, let's go."
"Alright!"
Golden Crocodile did not bring Qian Chenzhou back to Sunset Forest. Instead, he flew directly toward Spirit City.
Ghost and Yue Guan went straight to Sunset Forest to bring the carriage back to Spirit City.
Spirit Hall, Offering Hall!
When the six offerings saw Golden Crocodile, Qian Chenzhou, and Bibi Dong return, they could not help stepping forward to ask how many years Qian Chenzhou's Soul Ring had.
"My first ring is five thousand years." As Qian Chenzhou spoke, he directly revealed his first Soul Ring.
Purple!
The crowd, already filled with curiosity, immediately fell silent before erupting in wild joy.
A five-thousand-year first ring would still be useful even after becoming a Titled Douluo. The first Soul Ring slot had not been wasted at all.
"Chenzhou, release your Soul Skill and let us see it."
Even Qian Daoliu, a level 99 Peerless Douluo, could not suppress his excited expression. The stone chair beneath him creaked as his palm clenched it.
With Chenzhou here, Spirit Hall would welcome another century of prosperity!
"First Soul Skill, Human Sovereign Might!"
The first Soul Ring lit up.
An immense, unparalleled majesty spread from Qian Chenzhou's body and pressed down upon everyone else.
Other than Bibi Dong and Qian Chenzhou, everyone present was a Titled Douluo, with even the lowest-ranked among them being level 96!
Yet they all felt an inexplicable pressure from within Qian Chenzhou. Though it only affected them slightly, they were Titled Douluo!
Bibi Dong fared the worst. The overwhelming pressure made her feel as though she had to kneel in worship.
At the same time, her possessiveness toward Qian Chenzhou grew even more frenzied.
He is mine!
Qian Chenzhou directly withdrew his Soul Skill. "This is my first Soul Skill. It enhances my own majesty and suppresses others. It can affect even Soul Masters two major realms above me."
"You're still being too conservative." Golden Crocodile laughed heartily.
"Forget it. It's only a Soul Skill; it doesn't matter." Qian Chenzhou waved a hand and took out the jade boxes from his Storage Soul Tool. "These are greeting gifts for all of my uncles."
"This Flying Bird is the immortal herb for Uncle Azure Luan."
"This Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower is the immortal herb for Uncle Lion."
"This Extreme Cold Ice Lotus is the immortal herb for Uncle Light Plume."
"This Twin Purple-Gold Bamboo is the immortal herb for Uncles Thousand Jun and Subduing Demon."
The five of them were somewhat bewildered, unable to understand what these immortal herbs represented.
"Chenzhou, let me explain it to them. Go take care of your business first." Golden Crocodile immediately burst into laughter. He could finally broaden these fellows' horizons and had no intention of giving Qian Chenzhou a chance to show off.
"Wait a moment."
Qian Chenzhou directly took out thirty Soul Bones stained with Crimson King's blood and inscribed with Foundation Anchor formations from his Storage Soul Tool.
"These are Soul Bones!" When Golden Crocodile saw the thirty-six Soul Bones, he could not help sucking in a cold breath.
He had seen the piled-up Soul Bones before, but he had not known Qian Chenzhou had managed to pocket some for himself!
"Why are these Soul Bones stained with blood?" Qian Daoliu looked at the Crimson King's blood on the Soul Bones. "And the Soul Power fluctuations in this blood are very strong."
"Father, this is the gift I prepared for you." Qian Chenzhou casually placed the Soul Bones around the Offering Hall, guiding them underground with Soul Power. "The formation formed by these Soul Bones can grant even greater power. By converting Soul Power within it, there is a chance for all of you uncles to break through level 100 and become gods!"
The Offering Hall fell quiet for a moment, followed by an uproar.
"Chenzhou, is what you said true?!" The five offerings' breathing grew heavy.
Becoming a god was a legend to ninety-nine percent of Soul Masters. Reaching the level of Titled Douluo was already the ultimate pursuit of their lives.
Yet for these Titled Douluo within the Offering Hall, becoming gods was their final goal.
But becoming a god was not so easy!
"Yes, but it will take quite some time." Qian Chenzhou nodded. "Perhaps ten years, twenty years, or even fifty years!"
"But these immortal herbs can raise the limits of all my uncles."
"Good, good, good!"
"Uncles, I'll be leaving first." Qian Chenzhou cupped his fists in farewell and departed.
Afterward, Golden Crocodile recounted everything he had seen and heard during this trip with Qian Chenzhou in the Offering Hall. The few who had just been immersed in fantasies of becoming gods immediately frowned deeply.
They had never imagined that such powerful Soul Beasts existed within Star Dou Forest.
Pope Hall.
"Yo, big brother, keeping busy?" Qian Chenzhou teased as he looked at Qian Xunji.
Just as Qian Xunji was about to speak, a jade box flew toward him. He caught it in his palm with a slap. After opening it, he found a small golden flower lying inside. The fragrance it emitted made his Soul Power stir after just one breath.
"What is this?"
"Blazing Sunlight Flower. It will greatly improve your talent, and it's a fine treasure that can let you touch the threshold of a level 99 Peerless Douluo." Qian Chenzhou casually waved a hand, sat down, and poured himself a cup of tea.
