Second Soul Skill: Thousand Jun Strike! (Second Update! Please Vote and Bookmark!)
(Sorry, everyone, something really came up today, so I'm late. Please bear with me. I'll try my best to prevent this from happening again.) After that enormous black ape Soul Beast left, Su Yi looked in the direction it had gone and murmured softly, "An ape?"
"Alright, little ones, we need to quickly find the Soul Beasts you need, then get out of this place as soon as possible!"
After coming back to his senses, Yue Guan looked at Su Yi and Hu Liena. "Nana, go with your Grandpa Ghost to find the Soul Beast you need. I'll take little Su Yi and find the Soul Beast he needs. We'll split up. This place is far too dangerous."
"Mm, alright, Grandpa Chrysanthemum!"
Hu Liena agreed with Yue Guan's arrangement.
Although the four of them had been standing very close together, none of them heard Su Yi's murmur. Or rather, none of them heard it clearly.
After all, his murmur and question had been so quiet that even he could barely hear it himself. Much less Ghost Douluo, Yue Guan, and Hu Liena, whose attention had been entirely focused on that Soul Beast.
Once Yue Guan finished speaking, Ghost Douluo directly took Hu Liena and vanished before Su Yi and Yue Guan, heading deeper into the small Soul Beast Forest to search for the Soul Beast Hu Liena needed.
After Ghost Douluo and Hu Liena left, Yue Guan led Su Yi farther inside with a solemn expression.
"Little fellow, what kind of Soul Beast do you need?"
As Yue Guan led Su Yi onward, he asked the question.
"Strength."
Hearing Yue Guan's question, Su Yi answered indifferently.
It was as though Yue Guan were not looking for a suitable Soul Ring for him, but for someone else.
Yue Guan had long since grown accustomed to Su Yi's detached, cold personality. After hearing the type of Soul Beast Su Yi needed, he immediately released his Soul Power and spiritual power, spreading them into the surroundings to sense whether there were any Soul Beasts suitable for the little fellow.
After they had traveled several thousand meters, Yue Guan's eyes lit up slightly. He stopped with Su Yi.
"Found one!"
As Yue Guan spoke, he waved a hand toward a patch of Blue Silver Grass in the distance.
A pale yellow ant about twenty centimeters long appeared in Yue Guan's hand, wrapped in his Soul Power.
Su Yi looked at the ant in Yue Guan's hand. Its size was worlds apart from that of the Soul Beast whose Soul Ring he had absorbed first.
Even so, Su Yi did not question it.
He knew that the man before him would never casually catch some weak Soul Beast for him to absorb.
"Little fellow, don't be fooled by this Soul Beast's small size. It's far from ordinary."
"It is both a terrifying Soul Beast and the least terrifying Soul Beast."
Without even waiting for Su Yi to ask, Yue Guan began introducing the pale yellow ant before him.
"This is a Thousand Jun Ant Soldier. Soul Beasts like these rarely reach a Thousand Year cultivation."
"That is because Thousand Jun Ants are social Soul Beasts. Every Thousand Jun Ant obeys the Ant Queen's commands. The Ant Queen has no offensive power whatsoever and is only responsible for issuing orders and reproducing."
"Whenever a soldier ant among the Thousand Jun Ants reaches a Thousand Year cultivation, if the Ant Queen senses that it is slipping beyond her control, she will issue an order for the other soldier ants to surround and kill it."
"So, Thousand Jun Ants virtually have no Thousand Year cultivations. That is why they are not frightening, and why they exist at the very bottom of the Soul Beast hierarchy."
"If the Ant Queen of this type of Soul Beast did not restrict the cultivation growth of these soldier ants, just imagine it. A Thousand Jun Ant colony contains hundreds of millions of them. Forget all of them reaching Ten Thousand Year cultivation—even if only one-tenth reached Ten Thousand Year cultivation, it would be a terrifying disaster for the Soul Beast Forest and even the entire Douluo Continent."
Yue Guan looked at the Thousand Jun Ant Soldier struggling incessantly in his hand and could not help sighing.
"Can I absorb the Soul Ring now?"
Only after Yue Guan finished explaining and was sighing at the Thousand Jun Ant in his hand did Su Yi ask coldly.
"..."
Hearing Su Yi's chilly tone, Yue Guan was first speechless, then helpless. "Here."
As Yue Guan spoke, he directly crushed the Thousand Jun Ant Soldier with a cultivation of twelve hundred years into a crippled state and tossed it before Su Yi's feet.
Su Yi casually looked at the Thousand Jun Ant Yue Guan had thrown over, then used the dagger in his hand to cut off its head.
As its life faded away, a purple Soul Ring floated out from the Thousand Jun Ant's corpse.
Upon seeing the Soul Ring appear, Su Yi immediately sat cross-legged and began absorbing it.
Standing nearby, Yue Guan watched little Su Yi absorb the Soul Ring. Looking at the yellow Soul Ring floating around him and the purple Soul Ring he was currently absorbing, he could not help sighing inwardly.
He truly had no idea what kind of monster this little fellow was. His second Soul Ring was already Thousand Year level. Yue Guan did not dare imagine just how high or terrifying this child's future achievements would be.
Not to mention that the little fellow was already incomparably cold-hearted, ruthless in his attacks, and every move he made was a killing blow.
This boy's future was unimaginable.
Just as Yue Guan watched Su Yi and sank into thought, Su Yi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground and absorbing the Soul Ring with all his strength, had already successfully absorbed the twelve-hundred-year Soul Ring.
After absorbing this Soul Ring, Su Yi's level directly rose to level twenty-two. He was only one step away from level twenty-three.
Moreover, after absorbing this Thousand Year Soul Ring, Su Yi could clearly feel it.
A great deal of the excess Soul Power within the Soul Ring had actually been absorbed by his body.
Otherwise, with this Thousand Year Soul Ring alone, his level would have reached at least level twenty-three, perhaps even level twenty-four.
It seemed that the feeling he had experienced when absorbing that seven-hundred-year Soul Ring last time had not been mistaken.
The excess Soul Power within a Soul Ring was actually absorbed by his body.
No wonder he had been able to break convention.
His physical constitution was not entirely the result of his training. A large part of it came from the Soul Power within the Soul Rings being absorbed by his body during absorption, creating the person he was now.
After absorbing this Thousand Jun Ant Soul Ring, Su Yi could feel that his body's strength had risen considerably once more.
However, it had not yet reached the level where he could absorb a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
This twelve-hundred-year Thousand Jun Ant Soldier had provided him with an auxiliary-type Soul Skill: Thousand Jun Strike.
Second Soul Skill: Thousand Jun Strike: After use, the power of his next attack increases by 300%. Cooldown: ten minutes.
This skill seemed useless, but in Su Yi's eyes, it was an extremely practical Divine Skill.
For example, if his strength was one hundred, then after using this skill, the power of his next attack would be three hundred—directly tripled. It might only be one strike, and the increase in strength might not seem like much.
However, a person's strength could be continually trained and increased.
What if his strength reached ten thousand? Wouldn't his next attack then have a power of thirty thousand?
This Soul Skill could grow along with the improvement of his own strength.
For a Thousand Year Soul Ring skill to produce such an ability, it was simply a Divine Skill.
The second update is here. I'll continue writing the third update and will definitely finish it before midnight.
Also, everyone, don't think the protagonist's skill is weak. After all, it is only a Thousand Year-level skill. At this level, it already counts as a cheat for the protagonist. How powerful could a Soul Skill from a one-thousand-year Soul Ring possibly be? Don't think it is weak either. If he were invincible and crushed everything in his path, it would be boring. If that were the case, I might as well have made the protagonist invincible from the start, wiping out Douluo with a wave of his hand.
This is a new author's new book. If there are any shortcomings, please bear with me. I will do my best to correct them and improve.
Lastly, thank you all for your support and affection. Thank you.
Something really did delay me today, and I was late for far too long. It won't happen again. Please bear with me, everyone. Hearts! (A newbie groveling to save his life!)
