Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 18 Going Home
As Tong Rui continued to treat, he still did not see the words "Power of Faith" displayed on the proficiency panel.

Tong Rui was also very disappointed, but since he had already agreed to help the villagers with their illnesses, he couldn't ignore the rest of the people.

Especially when he saw an old man with a limp who still insisted on queuing, Tong Rui felt that he could not let them down.

So in the process of constantly seeing patients and treating illnesses, Tong Rui also forgot to observe the changes on the panel.

Even though he was already a level 37 Soul Master, it was not easy after treating hundreds of people. Fortunately, there were not many people in this village, only about households in total.

As his soul power recovered for the third time and the last person was treated, Tong Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

Some of the villagers who had been cured did not leave. Seeing Tong Rui's hard work in treating them, they were very grateful. Some even went home to get eggs and vegetables to give to Tong Rui to thank him.

Tong Rui insisted on not accepting them, but they insisted on giving them to him. Tong Rui could only symbolically take the dolls given by a few children on the grounds that he couldn't take them all.

As it was getting dark, the father and son did not hesitate to stay at the village chief's house for one night.

When Tong Qingtian and Tong Rui were alone, he hurriedly asked, "How is it? Do you feel the power of faith?"

Tong Rui looked at the proficiency panel, and then said in surprise: "Really! But it's pitifully small."

The power of faith was indeed not reflected, but progress towards godhood did appear.

But enough is enough!

Although it is small, it proves that the path to becoming a god is promising.

Even with the growth of the power of faith alone, the eyes of the gods will sooner or later focus on Tong Rui.

Tong Qingtian couldn't help but feel proud of his son after hearing this: "My son Tong Rui has the potential to become a god!"

Tong Rui was originally very happy, but hearing this was like pouring a bucket of cold water on him: "Dad, please don't say this again in the future. I'm afraid that I will have an uncertain old age before I become a god."

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid. But let's go back to town tomorrow, otherwise I won't worry about your mother being a healing spirit master. We can go to a village near the town for treatment. I'll take you there in the morning and bring you back in the evening."

Tong Rui listened and nodded.

Then he took out the Heavenly Star Vine Bead and practiced cross-leggedly. Seeing this, Tong Qingtian also took out a Heavenly Star Vine Bead to practice.

After a long period of use, the three Heavenly Star Vine Beads had been tempered day and night in the Space-Time Treasure House and had become ten thousand years old. Because Tong Rui could not fully digest the soul power transformed by the three beads, the three beads were used by each of the three members of the family.

As time goes by, although the improvement progress of the other two is not as good as the one in Tong Rui's hand, they are also rare treasures for cultivation.

It was supposed to be a normal practice, but Tong Rui felt that the starry sky was particularly active today.

As Tong Rui cultivated his soul power, he felt more and more that the starry sky was calling him.

In a place he didn't notice, the subtle power of faith he collected today was resonating with the stars along with the star plate in his hand and with the help of the Heavenly Star Vine Beads.

The activity of the stars also brought the arrival of star power. The Tong family father and son felt that the progress of their cultivation today was faster than before.

After Tong Rui finished his training, he looked at his panel as usual.

However, he discovered that the position of the deity had changed from 'Nothing (0.0001%)' to 'Star God (0.0011%)'.

Not only did the position of the god change, but even the power of faith changed, increasing by 0.001%.

Tong Rui intuitively felt that this was related to the call of the starry sky just now. If he could improve this much every time he practiced, then it would only take 274 years to advance to %!
Although it is very slow, compared with the thousand years of time that the Sea God spent conquering the sea, he only needs to practice every day for 274 years without fail, which is enough.

During this short period of training, he even acquired the spirit bones of the Heavenly Star Vine Bead and the Moonlight Tongbi Lotus, which was a significant improvement compared to usual.

With excitement in mind, Tong Rui began to improve his soul skills.

After taking out the herb seeds and planting them in the pots, Tong Rui began to gather his soul power and use his second soul skill.

Accompanied by the silver and green lights, the seed slowly sprouted, grew branches and leaves, and then grew slowly.

This short ten minutes of use almost exhausted Tong Rui's spiritual power, but the effect was also remarkable. Tong Rui had matured this herb for three months.

This is why Tong Rui's second soul skill improves much faster than other soul skills.

The other soul skills can only be improved rapidly when fighting with his father Tong Qingtian, but the second soul skill, whether it is the treatment in the hospital in the past or the continuous production of herbs every day, is inseparable from the transformation of vitality and mental power of the second soul skill.

Through the precise control of his second soul skill over the years, Tong Rui can not only fix the soul skill at the position where it is needed, but also double the effect of the soul skill by using a large amount of soul power.

With the improvement of soul power, Tong Rui, who originally improved by 1% per minute, improved his soul skills by one year in just ten minutes.

As Tong Rui's soul ring increases, his body strength and soul power will also increase faster.

As the sky gradually brightened, Tong Rui looked at the panel and ended today's practice with satisfaction.

In the morning, the two left the village amid the villagers' gratitude.

After returning home, Tong Rui couldn't wait to run into the ward and hug his mother Mo Yun.

Upon learning that the two of them had returned home straight away in the morning, he quickly asked Tong Rui to go upstairs to rest.

Tong Rui couldn't persuade his mother, so he went upstairs to deal with the bodies in the space.

To be honest, Tong Rui couldn't think of any use for these corpses. Apart from their martial spirits, the only use of soul masters was to be tools for evil soul masters to use to explode corpses.

People in Douluo are dead forever when they die. Even gods will be reincarnated after death.

Although the souls of mortals can be intercepted by gods, Tong Rui does not think that his martial soul is powerful enough to intercept souls, nor does he think that these corpses are worth intercepting.

So what can you do with a strong body?

Tong Rui didn't know, so he chose to let the Space-Time Treasure House make the choice to see what could be refined.
