Third Spirit Ring

When the others mentioned the gains from this trip, Ning Bei smiled proudly.

"My Soul Power Level has already reached level 30, and it's still far beyond that."

"What?"

"Really?"

After their surprise, worry quickly followed. Chen Xin even flashed straight to Ning Bei's side and placed his right hand on his shoulder.

After a long while, Chen Xin relaxed his tightly furrowed brows and said with a smile, "Bei Er's spirit power is very solid. There's no sign of it being unstable."

Only after they were reassured did they ask Ning Bei why his spirit power had increased.

After he told the three of them about the effects of the Eight Petal Immortal Orchid and the other Immortal Herbs, they all clicked their tongues in amazement.

Ning Fengzhi sighed at the wonders of nature.

"To think such small, unremarkable flowers and plants could have such miraculous effects."

At that moment, Ning Bei looked toward Chen Xin beside him.

"Sword Grandfather, can you test how much pressure my body can withstand?"

"Hmm? You mean..."

Seeing that Chen Xin understood what he was thinking, Ning Bei did not hide it.

"These few Immortal Herbs greatly strengthened both my body and my Spiritual Power. I want to see whether I can try absorbing a spirit ring with a higher age."

Chen Xin nodded, then released his own spirit power and pressed it down toward Ning Bei. At first, it was only pressure at the Soul Elder level. Seeing that Ning Bei's expression did not change at all, Chen Xin slowly increased the intensity of the pressure.

"Level 36. Level 37."

Only when the pressure reached the level of 48 did Ning Bei begin to frown, but clearly, even this was not his current limit.

Chen Xin directly withdrew the pressure, his expression excited as he praised Ning Bei.

"Bei Er, with your current physical strength, absorbing a spirit ring below ten thousand years should be no problem."

Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong were also full of joy. As the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, if Ning Bei could greatly exceed the limits when absorbing spirit rings, then his future achievements would be even higher.

Ning Bei nodded in satisfaction. He had never planned to force himself to get a Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring while still in the Soul Elder realm. What if it made him explode? Even if it didn't, it would definitely hurt a lot. No way!

"In that case, I'll have to trouble Sword Grandfather again to help me obtain a spirit ring."

When Chen Xin heard this, he waved his hand. If it was for Ning Bei, he would not mind being dragged out Soul Hunting every day.

But the thought of Soul Hunting suddenly jolted Ning Bei awake, and he looked toward Ning Fengzhi.

"Father, have you found your spirit ring yet?"

After Ning Fengzhi's martial soul evolved into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, his Soul Power Level had also broken through the level 79 bottleneck that had trapped him for many years and reached level 80. He only needed to obtain one spirit ring to become a Soul Douluo. During the time Ning Bei had been absorbing the Immortal Herbs, he did not know whether Ning Fengzhi had already obtained a spirit ring.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Bei with amused eyes and teased, "I thought you wouldn't care about your father's affairs."

Ning Bei smiled awkwardly.

"Of course I do. It's just that there was too much going on, so I forgot."

Ning Fengzhi summoned the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. On the eighth tier, a pitch-black spirit ring had suddenly appeared.

"Father, you've already obtained your spirit ring? What's the spirit skill?"

"While you were absorbing the Immortal Herbs, your Sword Grandfather and Bone Grandfather accompanied me on a trip. My Soul Power Level has now reached level 85. This Eighth Spirit Skill is the Nine Treasure Body Protection Divine Light. It can make me immune to any attack below the Ninth Spirit Ring and convert the opponent's attack into defensive power."

After hearing this, Ning Bei secretly clicked his tongue. As expected, it was the Nine Treasure Body Protection Divine Light. In the original work, Ning Rongrong's Eighth Spirit Skill was also this.

With this divine skill, even if the two Titled Douluo, Sword and Bone, faced opponents of the same level several times their number, they could still fight them. Unfortunately, before Ning Rongrong obtained this skill, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was already gone.

Now that Ning Bei had used the Immortal Herbs to change the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's fate, the two of them, Sword and Bone, would no longer be defeated so easily.

After learning about Ning Fengzhi's spirit power and spirit skill, Ning Bei looked toward Chen Xin again.

"Sword Grandfather, then let's go. The sooner we leave, the sooner we'll be back."

The others nodded. Chen Xin then summoned the Seven Kill Sword, brought Ning Bei with him, and flew toward the Star Dou Great Forest.

Before long, the two arrived at that familiar place.

Having already come to the Star Dou Great Forest for the third time, Ning Bei had lost the freshness he once felt. Now, he only wanted to get down to business.

After searching for several days, the two discovered a Gale Demon Wolf around eight thousand years old. After asking Ning Bei's opinion, Chen Xin swiftly knocked it unconscious and placed it before him.

Ning Bei also skillfully ended its life, summoned the Pill Pagoda, and began absorbing the deep purple spirit ring.

Two hours later, amid the roars of a group of soul beasts, Chen Xin grabbed Ning Bei and immediately fled.

Arriving at the valley they had visited last time, Chen Xin set him down.

"Bei Er, the commotion you cause when absorbing spirit rings is getting bigger each time. When you absorb your eighth or ninth spirit ring in the future, you won't attract a group of hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, will you? If that happens, even this old man, together with Fengzhi and Old Bonehead, wouldn't be able to handle it."

Chen Xin looked at Ning Bei worriedly. Some Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts had already appeared in this Beast Tide, even if those soul beasts had only barely broken through Ten-Thousand-Year Cultivation. One had to remember that this was only Ning Bei's third ring.

Ning Bei, however, smiled with utter indifference.

"Sword Grandfather, aren't you worrying too much? By the time I can attract a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast, my Martial Soul should be able to mass-produce hundred-thousand-year Soul Beasts too, right? Would we still need to be afraid of them then?"

Chen Xin thought about it and realized that was true, then immediately relaxed.

"Bei Er, how is this Spirit Skill?"

Ning Bei summoned the Pill Pagoda, and the third purple Soul Ring lit up. Three Elixirs appeared in his hand.

"The white one is called the Wind Walker Pill. It can increase the user's speed by forty percent."

"Oh, a support-type Elixir? The effect is quite good."

Chen Xin then swallowed the Wind Walker Pill and felt the changes in his body, praising the effects of Ning Bei's Elixir.

"What about the others?" Chen Xin said, pointing at the other two Elixirs.

"This pale-yellow Elixir is called the Mind Awakening Pill. After taking it, it can increase cultivation speed, but the higher one's cultivation, the worse the effect seems to be."

Chen Xin nodded when he heard that. If it increased cultivation speed without distinction, wouldn't that be far too heaven-defying?

"The last one is called the Qi Return Pill. It can greatly increase the speed of Soul Power recovery, and its effect can stack with the Spring Return Pill."

After trying it, Chen Xin once again praised the effects of Ning Bei's Elixir.

Ning Bei was also overjoyed inside. After so long, there was finally an Elixir he could use himself.

What Ning Bei meant here was the Mind Awakening Pill. Whether it was Elixirs that healed injuries or restored Soul Power, they hadn't been of much use to Ning Bei before. It wasn't as if he had any Battles to take part in.

Even if he charged forward when a Battle broke out, plenty of people would stop him. Now that he had the Mind Awakening Pill to increase his cultivation speed, Ning Bei said he was very satisfied.

After returning to the Sect, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong learned about the wonderful uses of Ning Bei's Third Spirit Skill, and smiles appeared on their faces as well.

Starting today, Ning Bei had one more job: mass-producing Mind Awakening Pills. Aside from the portion he kept for his own use, the rest would be supplied to the Sect disciples.

Ning Bei complained bitterly in his heart, A working stiff. No matter what world you're in, you're still a working stiff.
