"Brother, your Innate Soul Power has broken through level one hundred. Are you going to absorb ten Soul Rings all at once in a little while?"

The three walked through the forest. Qian Renxue held Qian Nuo's little hand and blinked as she asked curiously.

Qian Daoliu, who was following behind and looking around for any Soul Beast attacks, also turned to Qian Nuo with curiosity when he heard this.

Normally, if Qian Nuo absorbed ten Soul Rings at once, he could become a god-level existence surpassing a Peerless Douluo on the spot.

A six-year-old god-level existence would be the first in all eternity!

According to the countless records passed down through the generations since the Angel God, no one so terrifying had ever appeared.

"My Soul Rings need to be carefully selected. For my First Soul Ring, I'm planning to absorb a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring," Qian Nuo said calmly after some thought.

"A hundred-thousand-year First Soul Ring?!!!"

Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu both cried out in shock, their eyes wide.

"Qian Nuo, is that really possible? The resentment in a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring is terrifying!" Qian Daoliu had been through it himself and had plenty of experience, so he naturally understood these things.

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't."

"Besides, I'll make them obediently sacrifice themselves."

Qian Nuo spoke calmly.

Thinking of his terrifying strength, it did seem possible.

Qian Daoliu chose to remain silent and said nothing more.

Before long, the three found a Light Tiger just over a thousand years old.

Light-attribute Soul Beasts were relatively rare.

Finding one like this was already very good.

"This Light Tiger is fifteen hundred years old. Will an extra five hundred years be all right?" Qian Daoliu frowned and asked with some concern.

The three hid behind a tree, watching the sleeping tiger ahead, whose entire body was the color of light.

Qian Nuo said calmly, "It's not much of a problem. Silly Xue's physical strength is more than enough to withstand it."

Qian Renxue was a little excited to hear that.

"All right, I'll go catch it now," Qian Daoliu said.

"You're too slow."

As soon as he finished speaking, a cloud of black Qi appeared around Qian Nuo, then turned into a gigantic black hand that reached for the Light Tiger.

What evil energy!

At that moment, Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue both felt an involuntary sense of disgust, along with an urge to destroy it.

But they quickly shook their heads and suppressed the feeling.

They knew the Six-Winged Angels within them had to be acting up again.

After all, darkness and evil were the opposite of light.

The moment the Light Tiger sensed danger approaching and opened its eyes, its entire body was already caught in a gigantic black hand.

It panicked and struggled furiously, but it didn't do a damn bit of good.

The next moment, it was lifted into the air and brought before Qian Nuo and the other two.

When the Light Tiger saw Qian Nuo, its eyes met his. Panic and terror instantly filled its gaze. The next second, its whole body trembled, and it was so frightened that it pissed itself.

A stench of urine wafted out.

Then it fainted.

As it lost consciousness, its struggling body also lost the strength to resist.

"It was so scared it peed itself."

Qian Renxue's face was a little flushed, and she felt a trace of pity.

Qian Nuo placed the Light Tiger in front of her and said calmly, "Pick up the knife, aim at its neck, and stab it in hard. That's the fastest way to end its suffering."

"Xue'er, this is a step you must take to become strong. Come on, do as your brother says and stab it in the neck. That will finish it off fastest, and it's also the least painful way for it to die."

At that moment, Qian Daoliu handed Qian Renxue a knife. He truly couldn't bear to see her kill at such a young age, but the world was just that cruel.

Qian Renxue took it and drew a deep breath, her gaze gradually sharpening.

She aimed the knife at the Light Tiger's neck, breathed out, gritted her teeth, stamped her foot, squeezed her eyes shut, and stabbed down with all her strength!

Puchi!!!

Blood splattered as the knife plunged in.

The Light Tiger's body twitched a few times, and then it breathed its last.

Particles of energy floated out of its body, forming a purple circle that hovered above the corpse.

This was the Light Tiger's Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

"Good. You've finally taken that step."

"Next, summon your Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, draw the Soul Ring into it, and start absorbing it."

Qian Nuo spoke calmly.

"Mm, Xiao Xue knows!"

Qian Renxue closed her eyes and immediately wiped the blood from her hands.

A flicker of panic flashed through her eyes.

She immediately sat down cross-legged, summoned her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, and drew the Thousand-Year Soul Ring into her body.

What followed was the process of absorbing and refining it on her own.

Still worried, Qian Daoliu said, "If anything goes wrong with her in a moment, I'll step in and interrupt her. Then we can find a Hundred-Year Soul Beast for her to absorb."

This was the first attempt, after all, and he didn't want his granddaughter to absorb the energy and explode.

If she died, there would be nothing left.

"With me here, she won't die."

"Old man, you worry too much."

Qian Nuo stood with his hands in his pockets, calmly watching the scene before him as he spoke.

"Let's hope so." Qian Daoliu let out a breath.

Under the two men's watchful gazes, Qian Renxue's body began to react.

Her body began to react violently, swelling and turning red as steam rose from it.

Qian Daoliu was so frightened that he nearly stepped in to stop her.

But Qian Nuo stopped him.

"Don't panic. She's fine. This is a normal reaction. If you interfere, you'll only harm her and ruin her, because she's about to succeed."

Qian Nuo watched Qian Renxue, his eyes following the flow of energy inside her body.

Startled, Qian Daoliu withdrew his hand and continued watching.

Soon, the reactions in Qian Renxue's body subsided.

Her skin stopped smoking too.

She gradually calmed down.

Qian Daoliu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

At the same time, his heart soared with joy.

She had really succeeded!!!

A thousand-year First Soul Ring!!!!

Their Qian Family was actually the first on the continent!!!

Soon, a purple light radiated from Qian Renxue's body.

Then a purple Soul Ring rose from beneath her and hovered quietly around her.

This meant Qian Renxue had successfully absorbed a thousand-year First Soul Ring!

"Done!! I, Lord Dao, have done it!!"

"Sorry, wrong set."

"She did it! Wonderful, she succeeded!!!"

Qian Daoliu shouted excitedly, jumping up in delight.

She had really succeeded!

It was something he had always imagined but never dared take the first step toward, and at this moment, his own granddaughter had actually succeeded in testing it!

He himself had considered absorbing a thousand-year Soul Ring as his first.

But he had only ever thought about it and never put it into practice.

He had never dared take that step either.

He had been worried that if he failed, he would really be done for.

But he had never expected that, through a strange twist of fate, it would actually succeed today!!

From another perspective, he still had Qian Nuo to thank.

If Qian Nuo hadn't insisted so strongly, she wouldn't have dared take that step either.

Seeing how happy Qian Daoliu was also proved that his own idea had been acknowledged, so Qian Nuo naturally felt proud as well.
