Zhu Zhuqing returned
[Temporary training target Shui Bing'er breaks through to Soul King, reward issued.]
Congratulations, host, you have obtained: The Spirit Ascension Method.
"Um?"
Qian Xunji's eyes lit up instantly. The Spirit Ascension Method?
Isn't it just a method to increase the age of Soul Ring?
This reward was somewhat unexpected.
The reward Shui Bing'er received for becoming Soul Ancestor was nothing more than the Vajra Fist martial art.
Compared to the many martial arts techniques that already exist, the Spirit Ascension Art is extremely rare.
Qian Xunji decisively comprehended the secret, and after a moment, she opened her eyes. "Good stuff."
This Spirit Ascension Method is different from the Spirit Ascension Platform mentioned in the original Douluo novel.
Rather, it is a completely self-consistent approach.
In other words, even if Soul Master obtains Ten-Year Soul Ring Soul Ring, without relying on external forces, he can increase the age of the Soul Ring through his own cultivation.
At the same time, the higher the age of the Soul Ring, the stronger the effect of the Soul Skill corresponding to the Soul Ring will be.
However, the Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo Soul Ring cannot grant the Entanglement skill.
In other words, both the ten-year baboon Soul Ring and the ten-year Titan Giant Ape Soul Ring can be upgraded to 100,000 years or even higher.
However, the skills associated with Soul Ring are different. The Soul Skill that the Titan Giant Ape can grant are more powerful because this ability is present in its bloodline.
As for baboons, their bloodline doesn't contain certain abilities, so no matter how much you improve them, it won't help.
Baboons may mutate and evolve while alive, but once they die and become Soul Ring, they cannot mutate or evolve.
"It will ultimately be of great use."
Qian Xunji thought of this, then shattered the space and left. When she returned, she had a dying Shadow Falcon in her hand.
This Shadow Falcon is 1.2 meters long and is a 20,000-year-old Soul Beast.
Although its cultivation level is not high, the Shadow Falcon itself has extremely high bloodline quality, possessing extreme speed, powerful attacks, and terrifying stealth abilities.
"Zhu Zhuqing, you absorb its Soul Ring."
Zhu Zhuqing's fourth ring has yet to be found, although there are indeed many Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in the ocean.
However, the dark attribute is well hidden, and the speed attribute has not been found.
so...
It'll have to do.
Of course, Shui Bing's sixth ring couldn't be compromised, after all, he was already one of his people.
At least get a God-Given Soul Ring.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Although Zhu Zhuqing was disappointed, she dared not utter a single complaint.
Moreover, the fourth ring has a lifespan of 20,000 years, which is already quite remarkable.
In the month I've been here, I've learned the Bright Jade Art and two other martial arts techniques, and I've also obtained a 200,000-year-old Soul Bone.
Although her treatment couldn't compare to Shui Bing'er's, she was still content.
With Zhu Zhuqing's current physique, absorbing a 20,000-year Soul Ring is not difficult.
As for the Soul Shock... Qian Xunji will handle it himself.
An hour later, Zhu Zhuqing opened her eyes, but before she could thank Qian Xunji, a wisp of divine thought was imprinted on her mind.
"Give it a try."
The Spirit Ascension Method is not difficult to master. Ultimately, it boils down to a trick. The process may be somewhat convoluted, but once you discover it, it becomes very easy.
For example... solving a Rubik's Cube.
It's difficult without skills, but very simple with skills.
Zhu Zhuqing learned the Spirit Ascension Method in just half an hour. Immediately afterwards, Qian Xunji drew upon the power of heaven and earth to infuse his body.
Energy is conserved; increasing the age of Soul Ring consumes a significant amount of the Soul Master's Soul Power.
However, with Qian Xunji's external help, Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Ring age increased rapidly, so there was no need to worry about consumption.
Another hour passed, and Zhu Zhuqing's first three Soul Ring all turned black.
This is still due to Zhu Zhuqing's own weakness and low maximum power.
Two hours later, Zhu Zhuqing frowned. The lifespan of her Soul Ring had reached its limit, putting a strain on her physical body.
"It seems that the Spirit Ascension Method cannot increase the age of Soul Ring indefinitely."
Qian Xunji drew a conclusion, then looked at Shui Bing'er.
This young lady possesses two extremely powerful Soul Ring... it must be due to the sacrifice.
Sacrifices are better.
"Qingxian, Ah Yin, come here. I will teach you the Spirit Ascension Method."
After Qian Xunji finished his experiment on Zhu Zhuqing, he immediately summoned Ye Qingxian and Ah Yin.
As the age of Soul Ring increases, its Soul Power will also increase accordingly.
Once the two women's Soul Power reaches level 60, they can also find suitable Soul Beast to induce them to sacrifice.
Of course, you should use the best for your own woman.
"The Spirit Ascension Method?"
Was that the method Zhu Zhuqing used to increase the age of her Soul Ring?
Ye Qingxian was excited; she also wanted a ten-thousand-year-old Soul Ring.
"Hmm, the little trick I just figured out is actually quite useful."
I will teach you.
... Original timeline...
The entire Douluo Continent suddenly fell silent.
The once bustling street was suddenly silenced.
The coachman unconsciously tightened the reins, and the vendor frying dough sticks suddenly hissed as he burned a large blister on his hand.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Ning Fengzhi stared at the sky in disbelief, while Chen Xin and Gu Rong beside him accidentally crushed their teacups.
"Increase the age of the Soul Ring?"
"Hmm... it's just a minor technique."
Sword Douluo added another sentence, Ning Fengzhi could no longer maintain his composed expression.
"Uncle Jian, is there anything you've figured out?"
"Fengzhi, you really think highly of me."
Spirit Hall.
Qian Daoliu was also shocked by Qian Xunji's work.
"This kid is too monstrous! He doesn't seem like my son."
"Dad's Spirit Ascension Method should be able to do more than just increase the age of Soul Ring."
Qian Renxue was excited; her father was amazing.
They can even figure out a method to increase the age of Soul Ring.
"Increasing the age of Soul Ring will in turn improve the Soul Master's cultivation, but that's not the most important thing."
The most important thing should be the power of the Soul Skill.
The same Soul Skill can have vastly different power depending on whether it's from a thousand years or ten thousand years.
If it takes 100,000 years, perhaps other Soul Skill will appear; that depends on whether the Soul Ring absorbed by the Soul Master have that potential.
Qian Daoliu was, after all Peerless Douluo. Having cultivated for over a hundred years, he could deduce many things even from mere speculation.
"Grandpa, actually, the Bright Jade Art that Dad taught me can also allow ordinary people to cultivate Soul Power."
I've been thinking lately about whether we should train a group of people like that.
Qian Renxue suddenly asked, Qian Xunji was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head. "There's no need."
"Your most important task right now is to become a god."
The Spirit Hall has no shortage of Soul Master; there's no need for them to go to such lengths.
... Sky Curtain Timeline...
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed, and it's time for Zhu Zhuqing to return.
At this time, Zhu Zhuqing already possessed a cultivation level of 68, and her Soul Ring configuration was five black and one red.
"The Life-Death Talisman within you will erupt in the seventh month, at which time Bing'er will return."
Qian Xunji temporarily suppressed the Life-Death Talisman within Zhu Zhuqing's body, but only for seven months.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded quickly. "Yes."
Upon returning, Zhu Zhuqing will immediately go to the Spirit Hall to await Qian Renxue's orders and to await Madam Shui Bing'er's return.
As Zhu Zhuqing spoke, she bowed deeply again, kowtowing repeatedly. "Thank you for your His Holiness the Pope and support over the past six months, Zhu Zhuqing Holiness. I will never forget your kindness and will repay you with my life."
As soon as she finished speaking, a time-space portal opened, drawing her in.
... Original timeline...
Heaven Dou City, Blue Tyrant Academy.
Zhu Zhuqing returned to the place she had left behind.
However, at this time, Blue Tyrant Academy was already heavily surrounded by the heavy cavalry regiment of the Heaven Dou Empire.
