Douluo: I'll take the benefits, you bear the side effects

Ning Chuan's heart skipped a beat, and the three giant Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords pierced directly through the bodies of the three Thousand-Pound Ant King brothers.

With the appearance of three black spirit rings, they ceased to exist.

Ning Chuan raised his hand and inhaled, and three soul bones flew out: a left arm bone, a right arm bone, and a torso bone.

"These three brothers, the Thousand-Pound Ant King, are all over 90,000 years old. The older a soul beast is, the greater the chance of it dropping a soul bone. These three brothers, the Thousand-Pound Ant King, are really delivering soul bones to our doorstep."

Xiao Wu smiled.

Ning Rongrong knew that Ning Chuan favored Zhu Zhuqing the most, so she suggested, "Among the three of us, only Zhuqing is a strength-type Soul Master. In my opinion, we should give the left arm bone and torso bone to Zhuqing."

Ning Chuan said, "We need to keep the torso and head bones. With Zhu Zhuqing's current foundation, her eighth soul ring is enough to absorb a 100,000-year soul bone. Let her absorb this left arm bone. Also, you all need to keep at least two soul bone slots."

"Let Zhuqing absorb the left arm bone. Xiaowu already has her own soul bone for the right arm bone, so Lingling, you can take it and absorb it. The torso bone can be given to Bing'er."

Under Ning Chuan's arrangement, Ye Lingling, Zhu Zhuqing, and Shui Bing'er put away the soul bones, while Ning Chuan sat cross-legged in the center of the three soul rings.

"Ning Chuan, are you going to absorb these three spirit rings?"

Shui Bing'er was taken aback.

"Not bad, it's time to add spirit rings to my second spirit."

Ning Chuan thought that even if he was not satisfied with this spirit ring in the future, he could destroy it and absorb another one. So after answering, he began to absorb the three spirit rings without thinking.

The simultaneous infusion of energy from three spirit rings over 90,000 years old into his body caused even Ning Chuan to show a pained expression.

Fearing that something might happen to Ning Chuan, Ye Lingling and Ning Rongrong quickly released their Nine Treasures True Body and Sacred Heart True Body to amplify Ning Chuan's power.

Only then did the pain on Ning Chuan's face gradually disappear.

As time went by, Ningchuan began to change.

First, the tens of thousands of mature Gold-Eating Insects began to devour each other.

In the first instance of mutual cannibalism, the number of Gold-Eating Insects plummeted from over 40,000 to around 20,000.

Although the number of these gold-devouring insects has decreased, their aura has soared, and each one is no less powerful than a Soul Master.

The number of the second mutual devouring transformation reached ten thousand, and the aura soared again to the level of Soul King.

The number of beings devoured each other for the third time decreased sharply again, reaching about five thousand, and their aura soared to the level of Soul Emperor.

Five thousand Soul Emperor-level Gold-Devouring Insects, impervious to swords and spears, and immune to water and fire, left the women speechless. This was a force capable of destroying a major sect.

At this moment, Ning Chuan finally opened his eyes. Three crimson halos appeared around them.

"Soul Ring Mutation!"

These four words simultaneously popped into the minds of the five women.

Xiao Wu eagerly stepped forward and asked, "Ning Chuan, what kind of soul skill did you acquire?"

Ning Chuan shook his head. "I didn't gain any soul skills. I just evolved the Gold-Eating Insect and incidentally raised my soul power to level 87."

Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes: "You've only got three spirit rings, and you've already created five thousand spirit emperors. When you have nine spirit rings, won't you create dozens or even hundreds of titled Douluo?"

Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Shui Bing'er all nodded in deep agreement.

"Maybe they'll create a few gods?" Ningchuan Verdun Circuit.

The five women remained noncommittal, but to be honest, if things continued like this, they might actually create a god-level gold-devouring insect.

Ning Chuan said, "Alright, we've been out for quite a while now. In another seven or eight days, we'll be holding Rongrong's succession ceremony as sect leader. Don't be late."

That afternoon, Ning Chuan led everyone back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The five beauties went back to cultivate, some focusing on absorbing soul bones, others on absorbing soul bones themselves.

Ning Chuan himself went to the City of Slaughter to transfer the messy side effects on Tang Ritian to Tang Chen.

Finally, they arrived at the underground cultivation chamber of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to begin their secluded cultivation.

This retreat is for no other reason than...

It is precisely for the purpose of condensing the soul core.

Ning Chuan had been considering the condensation of the soul core for a long time.

I just couldn't find the right method before.

Now that we have this bead from the Dark Demon God Tiger, perhaps it will work.

After refining the bead, Ning Chuan transferred the energy inside to his dantian, and then, using the bead as a support, began to compress his soul power.

With the help of the bead and Tang Chen's power bank, Ning Chuan actually managed to condense the soul core.

During this time, they also encountered the backlash of the remnant soul of the Dark Demon God Tiger, but they were saved by the effect of the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder.

It posed absolutely no danger to Ningchuan.

At this time, it was time for Ning Rongrong to succeed as sect leader.

On the day of the ceremony, many guests came, including the Heaven Dou royal family represented by Qian Renxue, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect led by Yu Luomian, as well as the four lower sects and various nobles of the Heaven Dou Empire.

Of course, there's also Ningchuan's teacher, Louise.

Ning Fengzhi also invited the four former affiliated sects of the Haotian Sect: the Po Clan, the Li Clan, the Min Clan, and the Yu Clan.

Also invited was Tang Yuehua, the head of Yuexuan Pavilion from Haotian Sect. It seems that old bastard Ning Fengzhi is still not giving up.

Originally, they had hoped to let Ning Fengzhi live for two more years, and even to relieve him of the side effects of the blood ginseng.

It seems better that the other party died sooner.

Ning Chuan had no interest in engaging in empty pleasantries with these so-called 'big shots'.

After showing his face and exchanging glances with Qian Renxue, he made an excuse to leave and used his stealth skill to sneak away.

They went straight to the Heavenly Dou City, to the Snow Night Emperor's palace.

Before long, Xue Beng and Xue Xing were taken into the palace by the people that Qian Renxue had placed next to Emperor Xue Ye!

"Your Majesty, Prince Xuexing and His Highness Xuebeng request an audience," said the person Qian Renxue had placed beside Emperor Xueye.

"What are they doing here? Never mind, let them in." Xueye, unaware that his death was imminent and still kept in the dark, summoned them without a second thought.

"Royal brother, and fourth prince, what are you doing here? Speak, what is it?"

This was the first thing he said to them when he saw them on a snowy night. Because he wasn't feeling well, his voice was a little weak.

"Didn't you send us?" Xue Xing and Xue Beng looked at each other in bewilderment. Just as Xue Xing was about to speak, Xue Beng's soul tool was ripped off his waist and then, right in front of the two of them, he slammed it against Xue Ye's neck. In just a few blows, Xue Ye breathed his last.

Xuexing and Xuebeng were startled. At this point, even if they were fools, they would realize that they had fallen into someone's trap.

Avalanche instinctively tried to run, but Xuexing grabbed her and covered her mouth, saying, "Come back here! Where are you going?"

"Father... Father, he..." Xue Beng was so frightened that he wet himself.

"Shut up if you don't want to die." Xue Xing's face was extremely ugly; the murderer was now obvious. (End of Chapter)
