Black Jade Divine Bamboo Staff

As the sun rose and the moon set, a morning sun rose in the eastern sky.

Ye Chen was not refining the medicinal power of the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Shoot very quickly. After all, he was only a level 12 Spirit Master. Naturally, his efficiency in refining the immortal herb's medicinal power could not be very high.

It was not as though no soul beasts had come looking for them last night, but Xiao Wu had easily driven them all away, leaving her no chance to fire her gun.

At this moment, Ye Chen, who was still refining the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Shoot's medicinal power inside the tent, was also nearing the end.

Suddenly, Ye Chen, having finished refining the immortal herb's medicinal power, opened his eyes.

Of course, although he had supposedly finished refining it, the immortal herb's medicinal power was not limited to just that little. Most of its medicinal power had already lain dormant within Ye Chen's body.

Before Ye Chen's Soul Power level reached Soul Saint, this dormant medicinal power would greatly accelerate his cultivation speed.

Then, with a flick of his hand, a black-jade-colored Bamboo Staff martial soul appeared.

"Sure enough, my guess was right. My martial soul has evolved, transforming from ordinary bamboo into Black Jade Divine Bamboo!"

Looking at his martial soul, which had transformed from an unremarkable Bamboo Staff into the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Staff, Ye Chen was naturally thrilled.

According to the classification of martial soul quality, his original Bamboo Staff martial soul had merely been an ordinary martial soul. But now that it had transformed into the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Staff, his martial soul was a top-tier martial soul.

In other words, consuming the Black Jade Divine Bamboo Shoot had directly saved Ye Chen one small goal's worth of Gold Soul Coins.

After all, once he had resolved the issue of his cultivation talent, Ye Chen would definitely address the quality of his martial soul as well. If the quality of his martial soul was low, he would inevitably be at a disadvantage when fighting opponents of the same rank.

However, Ye Chen had no plans to spend money on upgrading it to god-tier quality anytime soon.

After all, he had no idea how many Martial Soul Upgrade Cards it would take to transform a top-tier martial soul into a god-tier martial soul.

And most importantly, he was out of money~

Open the Attribute Panel.

Immediately afterward, a golden light screen appeared before Ye Chen.

Attribute Panel

Host: Ye Chen

Soul Power: Level 20

Martial Soul: Black Jade Divine Bamboo Staff

Soul Ring: Yellow

Soul Skill: First Soul Skill, Bind

"Very good. My Soul Power level has also reached level 20, Quasi Great Soul Master!"

Looking at his Attribute Panel, Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction. However, he could also sense that his Soul Power had only just reached level 20, without any excess accumulation.

After all, most of the immortal herb's medicinal power had already lain dormant within Ye Chen's body. A small part had been used to improve the quality of his martial soul, and only the final tiny portion had been converted into Ye Chen's Soul Power.

"Next is adding my second soul ring."

Thinking about how he had still been a level 10 Quasi Soul Master yesterday, yet could become a Two Ring Great Soul Master today, Ye Chen felt a tremendous sense of accomplishment.

Leaving aside the increase in strength, the tribute from his "Own Son" cheat would definitely increase as well.

At the Soul Scholar stage, it paid tribute with one Gold Soul Coin per second. At the One Ring Soul Master stage, it paid two Gold Soul Coins per second. He just did not know whether, as a Two Ring Great Soul Master, it would pay three Gold Soul Coins per second or directly double to four Gold Soul Coins per second.

Though it seemed like only a difference of one Gold Soul Coin, over the course of a year, that amounted to more than thirty million glittering little darlings.

And if it doubled every time, the amount would become astronomical in the later stages.

But Ye Chen thought it was impossible for it to double every time. If it really did, perhaps one day the entire Douluo Continent would be paved with Gold Soul Coins.

Tsk~, the troubles of the rich were truly so plain and unpretentious!

Then Ye Chen stood up and walked out of the tent.

When Xiao Wu saw Ye Chen emerge from the tent, she immediately let out a sigh of relief. She had been standing guard outside for him all along.

After all, Ye Chen had been refining it for an entire night. Although Xiao Wu had not said anything, she had been extremely anxious inside.

After living together for the past few years, their relationship was far more than simply that of little brother and Big Sister Head. They just had not made it explicit.

"Xiao Wu, I made you wait anxiously!"

Seeing the faint worry on Xiao Wu's face, Ye Chen could not help saying.

"Hmph hmph~, Sister Xiao Wu wasn't anxious at all!"

Xiao Wu felt that she could not show any anxious expression in front of her little brother. Otherwise, would that not be embarrassing?

"Yes, yes. Go get some rest."

"That won't be necessary. I'm not tired yet! By the way, has your Soul Power level really reached level 20?"

Xiao Wu asked with a skeptical look. Since the difference between their levels was not great, she had not been able to tell.

"That's right, I'm already level 20. It won't be long before I catch up to you. When that happens, remember to call me big brother!"

"Tch~, talk when you've surpassed me! Go absorb the soul ring. Let's head back early."

Xiao Wu waved her hand, looking unconcerned, but inwardly, she secretly swore that once they returned, she would cultivate diligently.

Was this a joke? Did Sister Xiao Wu not care about her pride? If her Soul Power level were surpassed by Ye Chen, who had once been a "weakling," where would the Big Sister Head's dignity go?

Nodding, Ye Chen walked toward the thousand-year-old Chaos Grass in the distance.

It was the same old routine. He directly tossed out a White Phosphorus Incendiary Bomb, and before long, the thousand-year-old Chaos Grass collapsed beneath the blazing flames.

If Ye Chen had not been one hundred percent confident in absorbing a thousand-year soul ring when he was level 10, then now he had absolute confidence.

After all, after adding his first soul ring, it was not merely his Soul Power that had increased. Even his physical constitution had improved greatly.

Furthermore, an increase in Soul Power level also brought a very noticeable enhancement to one's physical constitution.

It was precisely because of this that, even without emphasizing physical training, the upper limit of soul rings a Spirit Master could endure would be much higher than that of the previous soul ring.

After the Chaos Grass soul ring emerged and the firelight faded, Ye Chen stepped forward to absorb the soul ring.

Although this Chaos Grass soul ring was considerably older than the more than six-hundred-year Creeping Ivy soul ring from before, Ye Chen found it even easier to absorb.

Fortunately, the soul ring's age was not particularly important to Ye Chen. As long as he was willing to spend Gold Soul Coins and his body could endure it, he could increase the age of all his soul rings.

By noon, Ye Chen had refined the immense Soul Power contained within the Chaos Grass soul ring. His Soul Power level broke through its bottleneck, advancing to level 22 Great Soul Master.

Ye Chen did not bother checking his Attribute Panel or what soul skill he had gained. The first thing he did was look at the tribute from his Own Son.

"Ha ha ha~"

Seeing that his Own Son cheat was now paying tribute with four Gold Soul Coins per second, Ye Chen could not help bursting into loud laughter.

Who would ever complain about having too many glittering little darlings? Besides, they did not take up any space.
