In the current era, although the concept of ultimate attributes would not exist until ten thousand years later,
Dongzi, as a woman who could climb step by step to the position of Rakshasa God through her own efforts,
when it came to researching Martial Souls,
was naturally an expert among experts.
"Xiao Huai, while making sure the Soul Skills you obtain are suitable, we must strengthen the light attribute and bloodline power within your White Tiger Martial Soul as much as possible."
"Only then will you be better able to step into the realm of Peerless Douluo in the future."
Jiang Huai naturally had no objections to this proposal.
But he felt Dongzi's horizons were still too narrow. How could a mere level 99 be enough?
He was a man who wanted to bed a deity!
Not to mention, the future evolution path Jiang Huai had his sights set on for his Nether Civet Martial Soul was none other than the Dark Demon Evil God Cat (doge)!
That thing commanded six whole attributes: evil, darkness, time, space, wind, and lightning.
There were some things he had to start preparing for early.
Before long, under Bibi Dong's guidance, the three of them arrived at a place filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
Ahead of them, several Soul Beasts were quietly drinking beside a stream. They resembled deer, but had no branching antlers, only a single horn growing from each forehead. Their bodies were white as snow, and their eyes shone golden.
"Xiao Huai, that Light Unicorn, around a thousand years old, would make just the right first Soul Ring for you."
"This Soul Beast's bloodline is relatively high-ranking in its own right, and its control over the light element is outstanding as well. It is just the thing to stimulate your Martial Soul Evolution."
"In your teacher's opinion, you have quite an affinity with this type of Soul Beast."
Bibi Dong pointed at the targeted Soul Beast, her face brimming with pride.
Thanks to her utter loathing for the evil Angel Clan,
she knew the habitats of the light-attribute Soul Beasts suitable for those with Angel Martial Souls to hunt like the back of her hand.
Since her beloved disciple Jiang Huai's Martial Soul had the potential to evolve into a Holy Light Tiger,
these top-quality Soul Beasts absolutely could not be left for that evil Angel Clan to absorb.
As soon as she finished speaking, Bibi Dong flickered away, then returned to her original spot carrying the already dying Light Unicorn.
Ah... this...
That fast?
Sure enough, Dongzi was Dongzi, and Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong was Bibi Dong!
After taking the dagger Bibi Dong handed him, Jiang Huai shut his eyes and plunged it into the Light Unicorn's eye socket.
A pained whinny escaped the Light Unicorn's mouth.
But with Bibi Dong restraining it from the side, its body merely twitched a few times before it fell completely silent.
Then a purple, gemlike thousand-year Soul Ring slowly emerged above its corpse.
"Xiao Huai, sit cross-legged. Draw the Soul Ring onto your Martial Soul, then absorb it with peace of mind."
"Don't worry. Your teacher is here. I absolutely won't let anything happen to you!"
Hu Liena also cheered Jiang Huai on from the side.
A genius junior brother with a thousand-year first ring-how much face would she gain taking him out in the future!
Jiang Huai took a deep breath, then followed the method Bibi Dong had taught him, sitting cross-legged and drawing it onto his White Tiger Martial Soul.
The next moment, some special resonance seemed to occur between the Martial Soul and Soul Ring!
The trace of light presence hidden within his body seemed to have been fully activated, bathing Jiang Huai's entire body in dazzling golden light.
A faint golden presence also surfaced over his original White Tiger Martial Soul, making it look ever more sacred and majestic.
Bibi Dong and Hu Liena were both stunned!
Was this the kind of imposing presence those white cat Martial Souls of the Dai Family could possess?
"Teacher, I think Junior Brother has the makings of a Titled Douluo!"
Bibi Dong rolled her eyes in exasperation at her eldest disciple, who seemed more foolish the longer she looked at her.
Wasn't that obvious?
Had she expected too much of her before?
"Nana, you ought to work harder."
Hu Liena: (๑•́₃•̀๑)
Time passed, second by second.
At a certain moment, a sound like shattering glass abruptly rang out inside Jiang Huai's head!
His Soul Power was strengthening, and his Martial Soul was growing!
An endless stream of power surged madly into his body!
The shackles of a level 10 Soul Scholar shattered with a crash, and his Soul Power climbed several levels in succession, only barely stopping at level 17!
The remaining medicinal potency that had yet to be digested would be slowly absorbed within Jiang Huai's body!
A golden gleam flashed through Jiang Huai's eyes and vanished!
This Daoist master has done it!
At this moment, having broken through the shackles of an antlike Soul Scholar, he had finally become a real man!
A true Soul Master powerhouse!
Beside him, Bibi Dong sensed her beloved disciple's increased Soul Power and was naturally beside herself with joy.
Just look at that talent. Innate level 20 Soul Power was utterly wasted on that unfilial daughter!
"Xiao Huai, what is your Soul Skill?"
Hu Liena also turned her head to look over curiously. The first Soul Skill from a thousand-year first ring-it had to be powerful!
Jiang Huai closed his eyes to sense it, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly.
How should he put it? This thing was usable, at least.
But as an evil otherworldly heavenly demon,
once this move was in his hands, he naturally could not use it the way its Soul Skill description said.
"Teacher, my first Soul Skill is called Holy Radiance Protection. Although it is a defensive skill that can block three attacks with my current Soul Power, it has also given me the ability to control the light attribute."
When Bibi Dong first heard that Jiang Huai's first Soul Skill was merely a defensive skill, she felt terribly guilty,
feeling that she had wasted one of Jiang Huai's Soul Ring slots.
But when she heard the latter half, Bibi Dong's eyes instantly lit up.
"Oh? Xiao Huai, tell me more."
The first Soul Ring beneath Jiang Huai's feet flickered slightly, and the dazzling radiance of Holy Radiance Protection, which should have been used for defense, suddenly contracted!
It then turned into blinding light-attribute elements, compressed within Jiang Huai's hand.
Immediately afterward, under Jiang Huai's deliberate control, this mass of elements gradually formed a serrated disc of light, then began spinning rapidly, producing a piercing whistle as it cut through the air!
"Teacher, I've named this move Ultra Slash!"
"It makes up for my lack of offensive methods in the early stages."
Jiang Huai bared a mouthful of pearly white teeth, staring at Bibi Dong and grinning foolishly.
The strength of Ultra Slash was tied to Jiang Huai's own Soul Power Level,
and he did not even dare imagine
just how terrifyingly powerful this move would become once his Soul Power Level rose in the future!
Blue Silver Entanglement, was it?
Blue Silver Overlord Spear, was it?
Let's see whether your Uncle Jiang Huai's great disc of light is powerful!
At that moment, in the distant Nebula M78, a certain unspeakable, terrifying existence cast an approving gaze his way!
Douluo Continent needed a meatpacking plant director of its very own too!
As everyone knew, Soul Beasts could not feel pain!
