What did it mean for a martial soul to possess its own consciousness?
It meant that if Yu Xiaogang grew strong enough, he alone would be equivalent to at least two Titled Douluo of the same rank.
What was more, considering the Golden Sacred Dragon's formidable combat power, Yu Xiaogang would most likely be able to fight opponents above his level.
That was terrifying...
"He agreed to come to Spirit Hall Academy?"
"Yes. He said he would report there once he broke through to level twenty."
"Mm, you may leave. You did well."
"This subordinate takes his leave."
Bibi Dong no longer had the mood to handle official affairs.
Most of it had been dealt with anyway. What remained were merely trivial matters.
She could let those below make the decisions themselves.
"Xiao Gang..." Bibi Dong did not know what attitude she should take when facing Yu Xiaogang.
Her thoughts were complicated and conflicted.
Innate Full Soul Power... It should not take him long to break through to level twenty.
According to Yue Guan, Yu Xiaogang had already reached level sixteen.
She needed to make some preparations first.
In the blink of an eye, two months passed.
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang sat cross-legged in an open clearing, wholly focused on absorbing his Second Soul Ring.
Yu Yuanzhen stood guard nearby, a trace of concern in his eyes. Can he really succeed in absorbing a five-thousand-year Soul Ring as his second ring...?
He had assumed Yu Xiaogang would choose a dragon-type soul beast around three or four thousand years old for his Second Soul Ring.
Then, his third ring would be close to ten thousand years, and his fourth Soul Ring would surpass ten thousand years.
Yet Yu Xiaogang had chosen a 5,340-year-old Radiant-Winged Sub-Dragon as his Second Soul Ring.
At this rate, was this brat planning to challenge a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring for his third ring?!
But seeing Yu Xiaogang's calm expression, it seemed his Second Soul Ring was secured.
"What a little monster..."
"But then again, he had been an unparalleled genius who forcibly cultivated to level ninety-nine with only half a level of Soul Power in his previous life. Now that he had been reborn, how could he possibly be lacking?"
"A ten-thousand-year third Soul Ring..." As Yu Yuanzhen considered it, it actually seemed feasible.
The spiritual shock of a Soul Ring over ten thousand years old was not worth mentioning to Yu Xiaogang, who possessed Divine Sense.
He only needed to consider whether his body could withstand such a powerful Soul Ring.
Once Yu Xiaogang became a Soul Ancestor—
Purple, purple, black, black. The moment those Soul Rings appeared, they could scare his opponents to death on the spot!
And as his father, Yu Yuanzhen naturally would not be short on face.
As Yu Yuanzhen thought about it, the corners of his mouth could not stop rising.
"Hoo—" Yu Xiaogang let out a long breath.
He rose to his feet, looking incomparably energized.
"Xiao Gang, how was it?"
"I feel incredibly good right now!" Light shone in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
The foundation he had laid now was countless times better than in his previous life!
"Good! Good! Good! What is the effect of your Second Soul Skill?" Yu Yuanzhen asked impatiently.
He was truly curious how powerful a five-thousand-year Second Soul Ring could be.
"Second Soul Skill—Sacred Dragon Swift Blessing. Speed increased by 70%, strength increased by 30%."
"That's all?" Yu Yuanzhen pressed.
That was not right. His First Soul Ring even had an additional trait, so why did his Second Soul Ring have none?
Yu Xiaogang smiled and shook his head. "Of course there's more. Aside from the enhancements, while the Second Soul Skill is active, all attacks will inflict Holy Light Scorch on enemies."
"How long does it last?" Yu Yuanzhen's eyes lit up.
With that trait added, it truly was a top-tier Soul Skill!
"Same as the First Soul Skill—until my Soul Power is exhausted."
However, unlike the First Soul Skill's unconditional purification, which had a three-minute cooldown.
The Holy Light Scorch of the Second Soul Skill had no cooldown. As long as he hit the opponent, he could apply this debuff.
Yu Yuanzhen beamed.
But just as he began to laugh, Yu Xiaogang interrupted him. "Don't celebrate yet, Father. There's more."
"There's more?!"
"Yes, but it isn't from the Soul Ring."
Divine light burst from Yu Yuanzhen's eyes. "Could it be?!"
A pair of radiant dragon wings unfurled directly from behind Yu Xiaogang!
"Sacred Dragon Radiant Wings. They are 5,340 years old and will grow alongside me. They are precisely the External Soul Bone dropped by that Radiant-Winged Sub-Dragon."
"At present, they have one passive and one active skill."
"The passive greatly increases my flying speed, while the origin of light continuously nourishes my body."
"As for the active skill..."
Yu Xiaogang paused slightly.
"Xiao Gang, hurry up and say it! Aren't you making me anxious?" Yu Yuanzhen grew impatient.
Why stop talking at the crucial part? Hurry up!
"Active skill—Radiant Heaven Dragon Wings: the dragon wings spread, holy light sweeps forth, purifying all enemy buffs, allied debuffs, domains, and sinister energy."
"The range increases as my strength rises. Currently, when cast with my level twenty-two Soul Power, it has a radius of fifty meters."
As Yu Yuanzhen listened, he spotted the key issue. "Wait! What did you say?!"
"Domains are within the purification range too?!"
Yu Xiaogang did not think there was anything strange about it. "An enemy's domain is a debuff to us, isn't it? Why shouldn't I be able to purify it?"
Yu Yuanzhen was dumbfounded. "That works too?!"
666—He's got cheats!!!
This guy was not even pretending anymore!
"Doesn't that mean any enemy who fights you in the future will effectively have no domain?"
"While you can still use your own domain... Hiss~"
Even Yu Yuanzhen had to marvel at how utterly shameless this Soul Bone skill was.
What kind of nonsense was this? You banned my domain while still being able to use your own?
"Once this External Dragon Wing Soul Bone reaches one hundred thousand years, it can gain another Soul Bone skill."
He just did not know how it would compare with the Soul Bone skill from his previous life.
It would most likely be even stronger.
After all, in this life, his foundation was absurdly solid.
"My son has the bearing of an invincible champion!" Yu Yuanzhen smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits.
"Ah, Father, you can't say that carelessly."
"Why not?"
"It won't be too late to say it once I'm truly invincible." Yu Xiaogang was happy to trade jokes with his old father.
At least during the time he had been here, Yu Yuanzhen's vitality and spirits had visibly improved.
Wasn't that what people lived for—a source of hope?
Now that he was here, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's next generation had someone to hold it up, and it even showed signs of flourishing. Naturally, Yu Yuanzhen had hope.
So naturally, his spirits had improved greatly.
Yu Yuanzhen naturally knew his son was joking with him.
Still, there were things that needed to be said. "Xiao Gang, remember this: before your strength is sufficient and you have fully matured, do not use this Dragon Wing External Soul Bone lightly."
"There is no shortage in this world of people who would kill out of envy to seize treasure, regardless of the consequences."
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang nodded lightly. "Don't worry, Father. I know what I'm doing. Unless it's necessary, I won't use the External Soul Bone."
He still could not afford to lower his guard.
Seeing that Yu Xiaogang had taken the warning to heart, Yu Yuanzhen said no more and changed the subject. "Xiao Gang, now that you've reached level twenty-two, it's time for you to head to Spirit Hall Academy."
