The jet-black, Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring floated silently above the Radiant Devouring Pelican.
Several streams of black energy swirled around it, just like the vortex created when the Devour Heaven and Earth was activated.
The oppressive aura unique to the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring continued to emanate, and Xiao Xiao could even feel the unique resentment emanating from that Soul Ring.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xiao Xiao sat directly in the shallow water. The pond water soaked through Xiao Xiao clothes, outlining her developing curves.
She exudes a unique beauty and allure characteristic of young girls.
Xiao Xiao didn't care about any of that. Instead, she cheered herself up, " Xiao Xiao, you can do it!"
Then, Xiao Xiao turned her head and glanced at Huo Yuhao beside her.
Seeing the trust in Huo Yuhao's eyes, Xiao Xiao felt completely at ease.
Instead of starting immediately, she took out Milk Bottle from her storage bag and began to replenish the Soul Power she had just used up.
Try to absorb the Soul Ring by utilizing your own physical condition.
Wu Feng Ning Tian and Wang Dong Er stood beside Huo Yu Hao, looking at Xiao Xiao in the water, and couldn't help but ask with some concern, "Yu Hao, is Xiao Xiao alright after absorbing this soul ring?"
Huo Yuhao calmly stated, "Absorbing Soul Ring always carries risks, but since Xuan Zi hasn't intervened, there's nothing to worry about."
Wu Feng nodded in agreement, " Yuhao is right, let's protect Xiao Xiao."
Ning Tian stroked his chin, thought about it carefully, and also felt that it made sense.
Wang Dong'er didn't consider any of that. Instead, she looked at Xiao Xiao, who was soaking in the water, and then at Huo Yuhao, whose eyes she couldn't take off.
She even felt that Xiao Xiao was doing it on purpose; she was really scheming.
However, since it was a major event involving absorbing Soul Ring, she didn't dwell on these matters and instead went to the side to protect Xiao Xiao.
Huo Yuhao watched Wang Dong'er walk away and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the past two months had been somewhat effective.
Once everyone was ready, Xiao Xiao in the water stopped absorbing the Soul Power from the Milk Bottle.
Her Soul Power had also returned to its peak.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Xiao's hands began to move. After making several hand seals, she activated her Soul Power, and the black Soul Ring flew directly towards her.
The moment the Soul Ring merged, an invisible aura spread out, causing ripples to spread across the calm water surface.
The dark air currents shot out in all directions like ribbons, quickly blowing the hair of Wu Feng and the others in the distance, and the water surface seemed to be half-boiling, constantly bursting with water droplets.
"Eh!..."
Unconsciously, the phantom of the Radiant Devouring Pelican condensed above Xiao Xiao's head, and opened its huge mouth, preparing to swallow Xiao Xiao whole.
Wu Feng and the others were instantly gripped by fear; they hadn't expected the residual energy within that Soul Ring to be so terrifying.
Huo Yuhao narrowed his eyes, a purple light flashing in them as he shot towards the illusory figure!
This is the moment we've been waiting for.
The moment the purple light and the phantom touched, the condensed phantom shattered like glass, turning into several fragments that dissipated into the air.
Xiao Xiao frowned, and at the same time, a bell-like sound rang out from within her body, and a heavy aura directly condensed into a Soul Suppressing Cauldron behind her.
The Soul Suppressing Cauldron spun behind it, and as the light flowed, an invisible suppressive force landed directly on the Soul Ring.
As the suppressing power increased, the Soul Suppressing Cauldron slowly shrank in the air, transforming into a small cauldron the size of a fist, which hovered above its crown.
Seeing this, Wang Dong'er and the others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that something unexpected was about to happen.
That terrifying phantom must have been shattered by Xiao Xiao's Soul Suppressing Cauldron.
After all, Xiao Xiao's Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron also possesses a certain degree of attack power against the soul, so it's not impossible for it to shatter the remnant soul of the Radiant Devouring Pelican.
Fortunately, it now appears that Xiao Xiao is fully capable of absorbing this Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
Xiao Xiao's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
The resentment on that Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring completely disappeared, leaving only pure energy.
Xiao Xiao absorbed the Soul Ring more and more smoothly, and streams of pure Soul Power continuously flowed into her body, causing her aura to rise steadily.
About half an hour later, the black Soul Ring slowly merged into Xiao Xiao's body, and invisible ripples shook the water's surface, causing waves to collide with the shore.
As Xiao Xiao withdrew her Soul Power, she slowly opened her tightly closed eyes, a sharp light flashing in them, and her Xiao Xiao level began to rise instantly!
"Thirty-one, thirty-two, thirty-three... thirty-six!... thirty-eight!" Wang Dong'er held the Soul Power measuring instrument in her hand and shone it on Xiao Xiao, looking at the data on it.
Wu Feng and Ning Tian were also speechless with shock as they looked at the information, their mouths agape.
Xiao Xiao stood up directly from the water, her Soul Power surging within her body, and her clothes were instantly dried.
Three Soul Ring immediately appeared beneath her feet, two yellow and one black, especially the last one, which was an eerie black and emitted a jet-black light.
Looking at her ten- Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, Xiao Xiao's excitement was palpable. She waved at Huo Yuhao and shouted, " Yuhao! I did it!"
Then, Xiao Xiao took a step, her speed twice as fast as before, and threw herself into Huo Yuhao's arms.
Huo Yuhao patted her head and asked softly, "Congratulations! What skill did you acquire?"
Wang Dong'er and the others also put away their Soul Power measuring devices and came over.
Wu Feng was delighted with Xiao Xiao's success and excitedly congratulated her, "Congratulations, Xiao Xiao! This is a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring -Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring! I never expected it to be so powerful, allowing you to break through to level thirty-eight directly."
Ning Tian and Wang Dong'er also congratulated him on finding out.
Xiao Xiao nodded her thanks, then explained, "This Soul Ring complements my Soul Bone Soul Bone, activating the hidden energy within it and allowing me to increase my Soul Power by five levels in one go."
"Moreover, I've been cultivating at level 30 for almost half a year without absorbing Soul Ring. Luckily, my accumulated strength has finally paid off."
Looking at his two yellow and one purple Soul Ring, Wu Feng said somewhat dejectedly, "That's still pretty impressive. I don't even know how high I can break through after absorbing more Soul Ring."
" Wu Feng, you've worked very hard too. I feel your improvement this time won't be small either," Xiao Xiao comforted her.
Ning Tian blinked and asked curiously, "By the way, Xiao Xiao, is your Soul Skill the same as that Radiant Devouring Pelican's signature move?"
Xiao Xiao nodded, then shook her head.
Seeing this, the group was somewhat puzzled as to what Xiao Xiao meant.
Xiao Xiao then explained, "My Soul Bone already possesses the skill of Devour Heaven and Earth, as for this Soul Ring..."
Seeing the group's great curiosity, Xiao Xiao kept them in suspense once again.
Wang Dong'er asked eagerly, " Xiao Xiao, what kind of skill is it? Stop keeping me in suspense!"
Xiao Xiao winked playfully, then patiently explained, "This Soul Skill of mine is another signature move of the Radiant Devouring Pelican, called ' Mouth Transforms into Heaven and Earth,' but because it was absorbed by my Martial Soul, it's now called 'Cauldron Transforms into Heaven and Earth.'"
" The Cauldron Transforms into Heaven and Earth?"
"That's right, it's roughly that my Soul Suppressing Cauldron will instantly expand to several times its original size, and can even enlarge according to the total amount of my Soul Power. Then, in conjunction with Devour Heaven and Earth, a vortex will appear within the Soul Suppressing Cauldron to swallow everything!"
"It can be described as Soul Skill that combines attack and control."
Hearing Xiao Xiao's introduction, Wang Dong'er and the others were so shocked that they couldn't speak. If that was true, then this Soul Skill was definitely a trump card!
Looking at the group of women so close together, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel that this trip had indeed been quite fruitful.
