Douluo: I am ready to leave the Spirit Hall. The system will come.

Chapter 150 Absorbing the Eighth Soul Ring, Er Ming Arrives

Compared to the young and inexperienced Er Ming, Daming is quite intelligent.

It knew how powerful the creature that could kill the Emperor Golden Lion Beast in an instant was, and if it approached it rashly, it would probably lose its life in vain.

Therefore, it specifically warned other soul beasts not to approach that area easily, and only allowed a few sentinel soul beasts with both concealment and detection capabilities to conduct detection at the edge of that area.

Therefore, only the strongest sentinel soul beast saw You Chen's incarnation from afar, confirmed his identity as a soul master, and then sent the news back.

Er Ming was running at full speed, but although the core area was not large, this place was on the edge of the core area. Even if Er Ming ran at full speed, it would take at least half an hour.

And half an hour?
For You Chen, who had already absorbed a hundred thousand year spirit ring, this absorption process was easier than the last time.

In just about twenty minutes, You Chen successfully completed the absorption of the soul ring.

With the addition of the fourth hundred thousand year soul ring, the comprehensive age of You Chen's second life once again surpassed that of his first life. At the same time, the normal soul power level of his second life reached level 50.

You Chen glanced at the corpse of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast. The soul bone explosion rate of this kind of top soul beast is extremely high. For example, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear will directly explode an external soul bone, and the Emperor Golden Lion Beast is no exception.

A golden left metacarpal bone emerged from it.

You Chen did not absorb it immediately, but put it into his bag along with the corpse. Then he disbanded all his incarnations and hid himself again using the Breath-Containing Technique.

When Er Ming arrived, he was nowhere to be seen.

……

In the process of composing his own soul skills, You Chen realized that, unlike in the past, the energy of the hundred thousand year soul ring was sufficient to condense two soul skills, but there was another option, which was to concentrate all the energy on one soul skill, so that it would have higher strength.

However, the latter actually feels like something you can only encounter by chance.

You Chen realized during the process of condensing his soul skill that before the age of the soul ring exceeded 100,000 years under the system props, perhaps due to insufficient compatibility, the interference power of You Chen's self-imagined soul skill secret method was weakened, and this soul ring naturally began to condense into a soul skill.

But after breaking through 100,000 years, it will naturally tend to give birth to a second soul skill instead of continuing to strengthen the first soul skill.

I'm afraid the rules of the world are more inclined to the birth of two relatively weak hundred thousand year soul skills, rather than a single stronger hundred thousand year soul skill that is close to the power of a ferocious beast's soul ring soul skill.

That’s why this kind of natural development happened.

But fortunately, at the beginning, this soul ring was only a 90,000-year soul ring, and it had already taken the step of deriving the first soul skill. This made it easier for You Chen to generate only one soul skill.

In the end, with You Chen's deliberate intervention, the only one hundred thousand year soul skill "Emperor Golden Body" was born from the several possible soul skills of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast.

A soul skill that is completely constructed by the soul ring itself, and does not involve or call upon the attributes of Youchen's martial soul.

In other words, this is a soul skill that does not develop the power of the martial soul itself at all, but directly inherits the ability of the soul beast.

Generally speaking, the effect of this kind of soul skill is obviously inferior to that of the soul beast when it was alive.

After all, it's impossible that a fake soul skill like yours that has nothing to do with your own martial soul can be more powerful than the one displayed by the original master, right?
But probably because You Chen used the age card to increase the age of his soul ring to 100,000 years, and supplied all the energy that should have given birth to two soul skills to this one soul skill, in terms of effect alone, this soul skill is no worse than that performed by the Emperor Golden Lion Beast itself.

Using this soul skill will enter the state of Emperor Golden Body, immune to attacks below the God level for 5 seconds, and within the 5 seconds of invincibility and the 10 seconds after the invincibility ends, the power will be greatly increased. It can be used only 3 times a day.

The bloodline of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast is far superior to that of the trash Soft Bone Rabbit, so the original effect of the Emperor Golden Body is far stronger than that of the Invincible Golden Body.

However, You Chen speculated that if the Emperor's Golden Body was generated according to the steps of the double hundred thousand year soul skill at the beginning, it would probably be invincible for only 3 seconds like the Invincible Golden Body, and the extra time would only be the subsequent strengthening part.

Moreover, the duration of the power-enhanced state and the number of times the Emperor's Golden Body is used every day may not be as many as they are now.

In addition to the soul skills, You Chen also felt that the Stardust Dragon Soul's soul origin had been strengthened, just like when the Star Skeleton Dragon Soul absorbed the fourth, fifth and sixth soul rings of his previous life.

Because the soul ring is older, reaching a full 100,000 years, and the Emperor Golden Lion Beast is a top-level soul beast, the corresponding soul master's martial soul is also super-level, so even a super martial soul can get a clear and noticeable enhancement.

This may also be because the Stardust Dragon Martial Soul has only just entered the super realm and still has a lot of room for growth.

You Chen felt that the most obvious improvement was in strength, followed by toughness.

Overall, You Chen couldn't be more satisfied with the result.

The biggest gain was indeed obtaining the invincible skill.

Among all soul skills, its priority is probably only below time and space skills.

Space skills are easy to deal with, but as for time skills, even if you look through all the records in the Spirit Hall, only the "Dark Demon Evil God Tiger" soul beast has such power.

However, although You Chen II did not pursue or care about how much the fourth, fifth and sixth soul rings on his body would increase his martial soul's original power, it would be another matter if the soul rings would cause conflicts.

As a soul beast with ultimate evil power, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's conflict with You Chen's Stardust Dragon Martial Soul is even above the killing realm.

Even if it was only the fourth, fifth or sixth soul ring that had a relatively small impact on his martial soul, You Chen did not intend to choose the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

If it weren't for the conflict of attributes, in order to pursue the evolution from Stardust Dragon to Meteor Dragon, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger would undoubtedly be an important consideration for his seventh ring. When You Chen absorbed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger soul ring to obtain the sublimation of his martial soul, he could use the power of perceiving time to peek into the ultimate speed that surpasses human intelligence at that moment.

Although it is a pity, You Chen would not make such a gamble.

After leaving the core area and returning to the internal mixing area, You Chen quickly took out the left metacarpal bone of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast.

There is nothing much to say. The value of this extra external soul bone is higher to You Chen than the hundred thousand year soul bone. You Chen absorbed it quickly. In the process of integrating it into his palm, he also attached the ten thousand year soul bone age to it, thus improving the strengthening of his own martial soul as much as possible.

The strengthening of martial soul by soul bones is less than that by soul rings, and more importantly, it improves the numerical value of the soul master himself.

Therefore, the improvement of martial soul is minimal, and You Chen's own numerical value is already terrifying enough. Even the hundred thousand year soul bone can only be said to be icing on the cake, and it only focuses on strengthening the destructive power of his left hand.

After completing the absorption, You Chen quickly grasped the information of this soul bone.

This kind of "hint" is a bit like a game mechanism. Rather than complaining about it, You Chen tends to understand it as a "world rule".

Both are external soul bones with a gold attribute. If the characteristic of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's right metacarpal bone is crushing, then the Emperor Golden Lion Beast's is sharp and penetrating.

The accompanying soul bone skill is the "Emperor Gold Sword", which condenses the ultimate sharpness of gold in the left hand to launch an unbreakable penetrating attack, or it can condense without firing and maintain its use as a weapon soul skill.

You Chen did not directly test the power of this move here, but just from the "sharpness of ultimate gold" and "hundred thousand year soul bone skill", he could tell that the power of this move was definitely extraordinary.

It can be used as a supplementary killing move during the cooldown phase of "Sonic Shooting", and can also be used as a weapon to increase the tolerance rate in close combat.

And like all external soul bones, this left metacarpal bone also has the means to increase lifespan.

In fact, all soul bones will increase in age as they are nurtured by the soul master's soul power (as set in the original work). In other words, except for external soul bones that cannot be peeled off, the more times and longer soul bones are passed down, the longer their age will be.

However, there is no additional means of attached soul bones to increase the age of normal soul bones, and it requires a long period of accumulation. For the original novel, which normally only covers a plot of 20 to 30 years, this effect is almost nothing for the protagonist.

The way to increase the lifespan of the left metacarpal bone of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast is very simple, that is, to absorb those different precious metals. Each precious metal has an upper limit for improvement, that is, after eating a certain amount, the left metacarpal bone will be picky and stop eating.

As the behind-the-scenes boss of the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, You Chen has no problem collecting precious metals, but some rare precious metals are really priceless and scarce.

"Anyway, let Grace and Dugubo worry about it. I don't care about the number of years. I will be satisfied if I can reach 200,000 years and reach the level of fierce beast soul bones. This is the harvest of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast. Next, it will be the turn of the eighth soul ring of the first life."

A hundred thousand year soul ring naturally and easily pushed You Chen's soul power level to the bottleneck of level 80.

The ninth ring of one's life still has the pursuit of breaking through the level of life, but the eighth ring has almost no restrictions.

And this time, You Chen’s goal is also very clear.

The power of stardust is formed by the fusion of three forces: wind, stars, and sacredness. Naturally, improving the control over these three forces can also assist in the practice of the power of stardust.

Among these three powers, the wind power that accompanied You Chen from beginning to end was undoubtedly the power with the highest control. Still according to the classification from introductory to perfect, You Chen was already in the late stage of great success in controlling the wind power.

Star power followed closely behind. The first three rings of You Chen's second incarnation were all related to star power. In addition, he had devoted a lot of effort to studying the starlight incarnation in the past few years, and his progress in this area was catching up. Although it was not as good as the wind power, it could at least be regarded as being in the early stage of great success.

As for divine power, You Chen was very weak...

Starlight Incarnation and Starlight Avenue, although both skills have some use of divine power, they are both based on star power.

In the Sanctuary of Sacrifices, the three types of power can be said to be equally powerful.

In the past six months, You Chen has also specially allocated a field research project and devoted more time to it.

but……

Too abstruse.

If you use and practice the field based on your feelings, you will become more and more proficient in it.

But to completely transform this feeling into a product of your own understanding?
At least in the past six months, You Chen can be said to have gained almost nothing.

Even though the 10,000-year soul ring soul skill was weakened and was not as good as the innate realm, You Chen still had not made any progress in "self-transformation soul skill".

Relying on the proficiency and feeling of the Sacrifice Sanctuary, one can naturally gain some inspiration on the fusion of the three powers, but wanting to comprehend one of the powers alone? That's difficult.

You Chen's control over the divine power can only be said to be at the entry level, let alone a small level.

After all, he is not a god. Since he has not spent much time studying it before, his level of proficiency is naturally not very high.

But You Chen has clearly realized that his control over the divine power is too low, which has obviously affected his control over the power of stardust.

So... the eighth ring, which has the most relaxed conditions, must naturally be used for this sacred power.

You Chen has taught Yan using spirit rings and spirit skills as his teacher, so of course he will not abandon it.

He knew that a big part of the reason why he had not improved his control over divine power was that he did not have a soul skill that was completely based on divine power. The cost-effectiveness of learning and improving it was too low, so he had not touched on this aspect for a long time.

Then, a new problem arises. Like the power of stars, the soul beasts that control the divine power are also very rare.

At least according to the information You Chen had gathered through the Beast Soul Chamber of Commerce, even in the Star Dou Great Forest, there were no sacred soul beasts of the 80,000 or 90,000 level.

There are no ones that are 80,000 or 90,000 years old, and the oldest is only 50,000 years old.

But... You Chen cannot accept spirit rings less than one hundred thousand years old.

Consuming an extra fifty thousand years of age card meant that in order to complete the seventh ring of his planned perfect second life body, he would need to complete more tasks to make up for it.

"Forget it. Anyway, there are still many [Destiny People] (people with high destiny power) left on this continent. If Xue'er's 100,000-year life card is not enough, I can just do more missions if I'm really short of time."

After his strength increased, You Chen's mentality is not so urgent now.

A ten-thousand-year card, if not swiped by a destiny person, will probably come out once every six months or several months.

This amount of time was completely within the tolerance range. After all, he still had a lot of training to do, so he could find some tasks to do during this time.

But it is difficult to make up for the spirit ring once it is missed.

This time, You Chen’s goal was not to generate only one soul skill like the Emperor Golden Lion Beast.

In order to make better use of the spirit ring to learn and control the divine power, at his current level, a super model hundred thousand year spirit skill is far inferior to two ordinary hundred thousand year spirit skills.

However, the soul ring and soul skills are determined during the soul ring generation process.

If the soul ring is not accumulated for 100,000 years when it is generated, it is equivalent to losing a sacred soul skill.

Although he had never trained the divine power systematically, he was not unfamiliar with it because he had a disciple with an angel spirit.

Without having to look through the memory palace in his mind, You Chen can find many suitable targets.

The soul beast that You Chen is targeting this time is called the Holy Spirit Bird.

As the name suggests, the Holy Spirit Bird is regarded as auspicious and holy spirit both among soul beasts and in the eyes of humans in the past.

This Holy Spirit Bird is not a good killer and prefers peace and nature. It is clearly a quasi-top-tier soul beast like the Hefeng Zhenglong, but despite its powerful strength, it is also willing to protect weak creatures.

Also because it does not kill, but only absorbs the essence of heaven and earth to practice, the Holy Spirit Bird can rely on its bloodline to quickly reach the level of ten thousand years of cultivation, but it is rare to see it break through a hundred thousand years.

So even though it is only a nominal auspicious sign and does not have the same effects as the emperor's auspicious beast, as long as the soul beast is not of evil attributes, it will naturally feel close to the Holy Spirit Bird and will not usually be hostile to it.

There are even ancient records that show that humans in the past had a history of worshiping and sacrificing to the holy bird.

However, You Chen naturally didn't care whether this soul beast was kind or a sage among beasts. He only cared whether the other party was useful to him.

With You Chen's current vision, anything that is not a quasi-top soul beast is no longer worth his attention.

As for the Holy Spirit Bird, it was exactly what he wanted.

This 50,000-year-old holy bird also lives in the core area.

Soon after You Chen entered the core area again, he discovered his whereabouts.

But unlike the Emperor Golden Lion Beast, this holy spirit bird that did not like fighting chose to submit to the Ming Dynasty and the Second Ming Dynasty early on.

Daming and Erming are also very friendly to soul beasts like the Holy Spirit Bird that do not fight or compete with each other, and allow it to live in an area close to them.

You Chen didn't know the reason, he just analyzed the phenomenon and came to the conclusion that it would be very difficult to wait for the Holy Spirit Bird to reach the edge area far away from Daming and Erming.

You Chen had no intention of staying in this mountain valley for another month just for a holy spirit bird.

Continuing to wait is not a solution. If Daming and Erming really come to the rescue, he will try his best to use the Starlight Avatar to delay them. If that doesn't work... he has a backup plan.

Having made up his mind, You Chen quickly took action.

The Holy Spirit Bird is similar to a socialite among soul beasts, and is often accompanied by soul beasts.

This is the second trouble.

Fortunately, You Chen is no longer the same person he used to be. He is not afraid at all even when several soul beasts that are tens of thousands of years old join together.

According to the Spirit Hall's laws, soul masters should try their best not to kill soul beasts that are not their targets, but You Chen has no such concerns at all.

In order to prevent these guys from causing trouble again after he started absorbing spirit rings, he killed them all at once.

There is no need for much description. Even the strongest Holy Spirit Bird among them is only a quasi-top soul beast of only 50,000 years old, with the combat power of the top Soul Douluo level.

Under the sweep of the incarnation of starlight, You Chen did not let any of them escape, and killed all the ten thousand year soul beasts involved in the scene.

Then, he asked the six incarnations to guard him around while he began to absorb the soul rings.

With the help of the soul ring age card, this soul ring quickly turned into blood red.

Compared to the Emperor Golden Lion Beast, the Holy Spirit Bird with similar attributes obviously has a higher degree of compatibility.

Every multiple of ten when the age of the spirit ring is multiplied is a qualitative change. Even if the Holy Spirit Bird is only a quasi-top-level spirit beast, under a high degree of compatibility, the improvement it brings to You Chen is no less than that of the Emperor Golden Lion Beast with top-level bloodline.

Compared to the surging vitality that could only be felt when absorbing the Emperor Golden Lion Beast, this time there was a surge of more sacred and pure power.

You Chen carefully felt the changes brought about by the absorption of the soul ring, and at the same time, he divided his mind and began to interfere with the development of the soul ring and soul skills.

Since the purpose was to strengthen and train the control over the divine power, You Chen naturally chose skills that were as irrelevant as possible.

One of them is naturally the most representative power of divine power, “healing”.

Healing is naturally one of the unique skills of the peace-loving Holy Spirit Bird. You Chen felt that the process of learning his own soul skill was as smooth and refreshing as being liberated after ten days of constipation.

Although he had not actually started using it, You Chen already felt that he had gained some understanding in the process of creating his own soul skills.

For another soul skill, You Chen chose a killing skill that is completely opposite to healing.

When it comes to killing, the divine power often focuses on purification and dissolution.

The former is more of a fusion of light and divine power, while the latter is more of a fusion of fire and divine power.

Perhaps it is this natural fit that the divine power with greater lethality is often easily produced in soul beasts and martial souls that possess holy and fire attributes or holy and light attributes, further highlighting their "purification" or "dissolution" characteristics.

But Youchen's sacred power has nothing to do with fire or light.

And in this world, there are no soul beasts that use the power of the combination of stars and holiness, or the combination of wind and holiness.

That was why he specifically chose the Holy Spirit Bird, a soul beast that also used divine power as a means of attack but did not possess the attribute of fire.

In the process of nurturing this soul skill, You Chen quickly felt the majestic side of the divine power.

The vastness that embraces evil and darkness and then crushes them completely, and the ruthless majesty that purifies everything equally like a god.

He realized an aspect of divine power that was different from what he had previously understood.

Suddenly, You Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

The starlight incarnation placed outside has already sensed the approach of the living beings.

"Is he here as expected?"

If he was inclined to "live in peace", You Chen would not hesitate to slaughter other irrelevant ten thousand year soul beasts, just to prevent their subsequent interference and to deter other soul beasts.

He had foreseen this situation when he made this choice.

……

"Humph! That stubborn lion is fine! He actually killed soul beasts in the core area again and again, and this time he directly slaughtered so many of our companions!"

Er Ming's eyes were red and he was burning with anger. He ran towards You Chen faster and more violently than last time.

The earthquake, which seemed to indicate the earth's anger, caused countless surrounding soul beasts to flee in all directions.

Er Ming has a bad relationship with the Emperor Golden Lion Beast, but it is different for other soul beasts.

Although they are not actually "companions", they are still loyal brothers in its heart!
How could Er Ming not be angry when his younger brothers were slaughtered!
Especially the Holy Spirit Bird, Er Ming really likes to play with it and treats it as his favorite pet!
In just a few minutes, Er Ming saw from afar the clone that You Chen had placed hundreds of meters away from his original body.

“Human…!!!”

It roared, making a somewhat dull and angry human voice.

Some soul beasts can speak normally after only tens of thousands of years of cultivation, and the one hundred thousand year old Titan Giant Ape goes without saying.

It opened its mouth deliberately to convey its anger truthfully.

The thunder-like sound echoed in the forest for a long time, and it seemed to have successfully conveyed the owner's meaning.

You Chen's six starlight incarnations had already sensed Er Ming's movements in advance and gathered here.

The war is about to start.
