Second Soul Ring, Who Is Jingjing?

After catching several more Black-Scaled Vipers that were around four to five hundred years old in this woodland, Jiang Lin and the others left.

About half an hour later, after dealing with the Black-Scaled Vipers, Jiang Lin followed the habits of the Windfeather Falcon to the top of a high cliff. He then opened the sack, and a strong bloody stench immediately wafted out.

"Dragon Sister, let's wait from afar now. A Windfeather Falcon should show up this time."

"And even if it doesn't, other flying soul beasts will come. If their age is suitable, I can use one as my second Soul Ring."

"Mm."

Jiang Lin's luck was much better this time. In only a short while, a large bird with a wingspan of more than four meters and covered in bluish-gray feathers flew in from the distance, landing on the sack of snake meat.

"It's a Windfeather Falcon!"

"And it's a Windfeather Falcon that's around 2,100 years old. Dragon Sister, please help me seriously injure it!"

Jiang Lin's eyes instantly lit up as he spoke to Little Dragon Girl beside him.

"Don't worry, Jiang Lin. It won't escape."

Little Dragon Girl's face was filled with confidence. The Frost Dragon Soul instantly appeared behind her, and she let out a roar directly at the Windfeather Falcon that was still feeding.

"Roar!"

An incomparably frigid dragon breath burst forth. Just as the Windfeather Falcon tried to take flight, it was stunned by the dragon's roar and then completely frozen by the icy dragon breath.

With that single strike, the Windfeather Falcon's aura weakened to the extreme!

"Thank you, Dragon Sister."

A flash of delight appeared on Jiang Lin's face. He immediately walked up to the Windfeather Falcon, and the King's Power Sword appeared in his palm before piercing its neck amid its fearful and resentful gaze.

"Screech—"

Its final cry rang out, and the Windfeather Falcon completely lost its life. A purple Soul Ring, far richer in color than the previous one, rose from its corpse.

Excitement immediately appeared on Jiang Lin's face. Just as he was about to absorb it, Xiao Wu's voice rang out from afar.

"Jiang Lin, this Windfeather Falcon's Soul Ring is over two thousand years old. You only just became a Soul Master—is it really alright for you to absorb it?"

"Don't worry, Xiao Wu. I'm confident. Before, I could absorb the Soul Ring of a thousand-year Netherworld Leopard even when I wasn't a Soul Master yet. What is there to worry about now that I'm absorbing a Windfeather Falcon's Soul Ring?"

"Mm, but you still need to be careful, Jiang Lin."

Although she had confidence in Jiang Lin, Xiao Wu could not help reminding him once more.

Jiang Lin nodded, then sat cross-legged beside the Windfeather Falcon and began meditating to absorb it.

This absorption was clearly far more difficult than the first. It was only after a full two hours that Jiang Lin opened his eyes, his face pale.

"Although the absorption process had some twists and turns, the result was good in the end."

Jiang Lin murmured to himself. Then, two purple Soul Rings bloomed from his body, and an aura of Soul Power several times stronger than before swept through the surroundings!

"As expected of a 2,100-year Soul Ring. It directly pushed my Soul Power Level to level 28. As long as I cultivate for a while longer, I can obtain my third Soul Ring and advance to Soul Elder."

"By then, I should only be seven years old at most. A seven-year-old Soul Elder—this should make me the youngest Soul Elder in the entire history of Douluo Continent!"

"Right, I should test the soul skill granted by my second Soul Ring."

A trace of excitement appeared in Jiang Lin's eyes as all the Soul Power in his body surged toward his back.

"Second soul skill, Azure-Feather Sword Wings!"

The next moment, the King's Power Sword in Jiang Lin's hand split into countless fragments. Drawn by a stream of azure air and Jiang Lin's Soul Power, they all fused into the spine on his back.

As an intense pain and tingling sensation washed over him, two azure wings made from fragments of the King's Power Sword's blade extended directly from his spine. With a light flap, Jiang Lin's figure appeared a hundred meters away!

"Damn, this speed, this feeling... is this what flying feels like?"

Feeling this unprecedented and wonderful experience, Jiang Lin's eyes were filled with shock and excitement.

"Jiang Lin is flying! Is this Jiang Lin's second soul skill?"

A hint of envy and admiration appeared in Xiao Wu's eyes.

Little Dragon Girl: Jiang Lin has grown stronger again. I should cultivate properly too and hurry up and break through to the next realm.

"This brat's strength is progressing incredibly fast. How long has it even been, and he has already reached this level? If my seal remains unbroken, perhaps in a few years, this brat's strength will surpass mine."

"By then, I'll truly be at this brat's mercy."

"No, I absolutely cannot allow that to happen. I have to quickly coax the method for breaking the seal out of this brat!"

Watching Jiang Lin soar freely through the air, Tian Yan fell into deep thought.

A moment later, Jiang Lin retracted the Azure-Feather Sword Wings behind him and landed on the cliff once more.

"Whew, this feeling is truly amazing, but the consumption is seriously huge. In just ten minutes, more than half the Soul Power in my body has been used up."

"And unlike Little Dragon Girl and the others, I don't have any cultivation techniques. I can only rely on hard cultivation to recover."

"Right, I still have more than seven thousand Collapse Points. They'll just sit there otherwise, so why not draw a few times and see if I can get a cultivation manual?"

"But this doesn't seem like a suitable time. Little Dragon Girl and Xiao Wu are both here. Right, I'll ask the system first."

"System, if I draw cards now, will anyone else discover you?"

[Ding!]

[Please rest assured, Host. The space where the card-drawing roulette exists does not overlap with the current world, so only the Host can see it.]

"Oh? So that's how it is?"

A trace of surprise appeared in Jiang Lin's eyes, and he immediately summoned the Bronze Roulette.

[Ding!]

[Bronze card draws +1, Collapse Points balance -1000, current Collapse Points: 6630]

After taking a deep breath, Jiang Lin willed it, and the Bronze Roulette immediately began spinning. The indicator swept across card after card before finally slowing to a stop.

[Ding!]

[Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a Bronze one-star pill: Spirit-Gathering Pill]

[Effect: Greatly increases the user's efficiency in absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Duration: 3 days.]

"J-just a one-star pill?"

Hearing the system prompt, Jiang Lin froze. An indescribable ache rose from his heart, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.

"Could it be that I used up all my good luck with those golden pulls before? Now that my Collapse Points have finally increased, is it time for me to pay it back?"

"Eh? Jiang Lin, what's wrong? Why do you look like that?"

A hint of confusion appeared on Xiao Wu's face. She clearly could not understand why Jiang Lin, who had been so excited just moments ago, suddenly looked completely dejected.

"That's right, Jiang Lin. What happened? Is there something wrong with your second soul skill?"

Little Dragon Girl also walked over and asked in confusion.

"Don't worry, it's nothing. I just want some peace and quiet."

Jiang Lin sighed and prepared to draw once more. He refused to believe that he could not get something good on his second draw.

However, just as he was about to draw again, Tian Yan's voice sounded from beside him.

"Brat, who is Jingjing? I never expected that having Xiao Wu and Little Dragon Girl already wouldn't be enough for you, yet you're still thinking about other women."
