Prison-Suppressing Demon Spider (Part Two)
Lin Chen immediately took out a piece of Dragon Ganoderma Leaf, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it. The warm medicinal power instantly spread, protecting his heart and meridians.
He sat cross-legged, focused his mind, and began to draw upon his Soul Ring.
A deep black Soul Ring slowly rose from the demon spider's body, thicker than an ordinary Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, with dark red chain patterns Entanglement around it, carrying a terrifying aura from the underground purgatory.
The Soul Ring slowly descended and landed on Lin Chen's head.
boom--
A surge of violent Soul Power instantly flooded his body, like magma from hell rushing into his meridians.
Lin Chen shuddered violently, his face turning deathly pale.
Soul Ring that lasts for 28,000 years is indeed powerful.
The black Soul Ring slowly sank into his body, and the violent Soul Power surged through his meridians like a flood bursting its banks. Even more terrifying was the impact on his mental state.
An ancient will from the depths of the earth surged into his mind through the Soul Ring, like countless chains trying to drag his soul into purgatory.
The resentment, roars, and despair of countless Soul Beast that the Prison-Suppressing Demon Spider had suppressed throughout its life rushed into his consciousness, as if to tear his spirit apart.
"Well--"
Lin Chen grunted, veins bulging on his forehead, his hands clenched into fists, his nails digging deep into his palms.
"Brother Lin Chen!" Xiao Wu exclaimed, trying to rush over, but was stopped by Dugu Bo.
"Don't touch him!" Dugu Bo frowned, his eyes fixed on Lin Chen. "He's currently experiencing a mental shock. Touching him now will only distract him."
He was also on tenterhooks.
Soul Ring that's 28,000 years old has a mental impact far exceeding that of an ordinary Soul Beast. If this kid can't withstand it, at best his Soul Ring will shatter, and at worst his consciousness will dissipate, turning him into an idiot.
But when he looked at Lin Chen, although he was trembling all over, he kept his back straight and showed no sign of panic.
Inside his dantian, the Chaos Pearl began to spin wildly.
Gray, attribute-less Soul Power surged forth like a tide, enveloping the raging Soul Ring Soul Power, refining and neutralizing it little by little. On the spiritual level, the Chaos Pearl emitted a faint halo, layer by layer enveloping that ancient will of suppressing the prison, slowly grinding and assimilating it.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was also drawn over. Two streams of energy, one red and one blue, flowed along the meridians, nourishing the damaged meridians on one hand and assisting the Chaos Soul Power in suppressing the rage of the Soul Ring on the other.
Lin Chen gritted his teeth, desperately trying to keep his mind clear.
He knew this was both an opportunity and a test.
If he survives, his Second Soul Ring will become his trump card; if he fails, all his previous efforts will have been in vain.
Time passed little by little.
One hour, two hours.
As the sun gradually set in the west, the light in the valley dimmed.
The black aura around Lin Chen grew stronger, and the Second Soul Ring beneath his feet gradually solidified from its ethereal state, with the chain patterns on it becoming increasingly clear.
The raging Soul Power gradually calmed down, flowing orderly through the meridians and completely merging with the Chaos Pearl.
That hellish mental shock was completely assimilated by the chaotic will and integrated into the Soul Skill.
Finally, Lin Chen slowly opened his eyes.
Two faint gray glints flashed in his eyes, then disappeared.
Two Soul Ring silently rotated beneath his feet.
The first ring is purple for a thousand years, the second ring is black for ten thousand years; the halo is warm and gentle, yet it carries an invisible suppressive force.
The air around him seemed to freeze, and even the falling withered leaves paused in front of him before slowly drifting down.
"You succeeded?" Xiao Wu immediately ran over, her eyes sparkling. "Brother Lin Chen, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Lin Chen stood up and stretched his limbs. His meridians were full of Soul Power, several times stronger than before he absorbed it.
His cultivation level broke through the level 20 bottleneck directly, and he steadily stopped at level 26 Soul Grandmaster. The level of Soul Power condensation far exceeded that of ordinary level 30 Soul Elder. More importantly, he obtained the Soul Skill he had always dreamed of.
"Second Soul Skill, Chaos Prison Suppression."
Lin Chen's mind raced.
Buzz--
A gray and black area instantly spread out, covering an area of ten zhang in radius.
Within the domain, space seemed to be solidified into thick amber, with dark red chain phantoms slowly moving within it, emitting faint metallic clanging sounds. The air was filled with the dual pressure of chaos and imprisonment, even distorting the light.
Standing at the edge of the domain, Xiao Wu felt a sudden heaviness all over her body, and her Soul Power flowed sluggishly, as if she had sunk into an invisible quagmire. She subconsciously tried to activate Teleportation, but found that the space around her was as if it were nailed shut by countless chains, and even the fluctuations of her Soul Power were locked in place, making it impossible to mobilize.
"This..." Xiao Wu's eyes widened, "Such strong suppression!"
Dugu Bo's pupils contracted slightly.
Although he was also at the edge of the domain, he could feel the suppressive force. Not only his physical body, but also his Soul Power and mental power were being suppressed in every way.
"Your Soul Skill is a domain-type skill?" His voice carried a hint of shock.
"Yes." Lin Chen nodded, his tone calm. "The Chaos Prison Suppression is much stronger than the previous Chaos Suppression. Within the domain, the enemy's Soul Power consumption increases by nearly 50%, and the power of their Soul Skill, movement speed, and attack speed decrease by nearly 30%. Spatial displacement skills such as Teleportation and earth-burrowing will be forcibly locked within the domain by chains, making them completely unusable."
He paused, then continued, "It also carries the impact of the Prison Suppression Will, imprinted with the ancient will of the Demon Spider that has suppressed for ten thousand years. It can weaken the opponent's mental attacks and make them immune to ordinary mental control. The longer the enemy stays in the domain, the more the Power of Chaos will continuously erode their meridians and Soul Power like fine teeth, causing their defense to constantly weaken, and they will inevitably collapse in the long run."
With each sentence he spoke, Dugu Bo's expression grew more serious.
This is no ordinary Second Soul Skill.
This is practically a meat grinder in team battles.
Suppressing Soul Power, weakening Soul Skill, blocking movement, mental impact, continuous erosion... comprehensive suppression. Once trapped within the domain, there is almost no chance of turning the tide for those of the same level. In particular, the ability to block Teleportation is a nightmare for Agility Attack System Soul Master.
"Soul Ring of 28,000 years, truly domineering." Dugu Bo took a deep breath, his gaze towards Lin Chen filled with even more admiration. "You kid, you really dared to gamble, and you won."
He thought it would be good enough if Lin Chen could absorb it successfully, but he didn't expect to directly obtain a top-level Domain Soul Skill. This Soul Skill is not inferior to a Soul Douluo- level Soul Ring.
Lin Chen, however, was not overly delighted.
He knew very well that this was just the beginning.
If the Second Soul Ring is already so powerful, the Chaos Pearl's potential will be gradually unleashed as the Third Soul Ring Fourth Soul Ring are added.
"Senior, the Soul Ring has been fully absorbed." He turned to Dugu Bo and bowed slightly. "In a few more days, once I have stabilized my cultivation and broken through to the Soul Elder, and my meridians are fully repaired, I can begin your first Soul Bone poison-preserving guidance."
At this mention, Dugu Bo's eyes flickered.
"Okay." He nodded, a hint of barely perceptible expectation in his voice.
