Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 3 The First Soul Ring
Three days later, with the help of three medicinal baths, Lin Po's injuries had healed.

Lin Po was wearing a tight suit and standing in front of the mirror. He looked at his face and then looked down at the half of his arm that was exposed.

"If nothing else, this recovery ability is incredible. Not only did I recover from such a severe burn the first time without leaving any trace, but I was also able to recover from multiple burns and injuries without leaving any trace. It seems that I definitely have some secrets. I just don't know if it was brought with me after traveling through time, or if someone gave it to me."

After pondering for a while, Lin Po gave up thinking because he couldn't figure out anything.

"Who cares? I've lived a new life, and God has given me another chance. I've already earned a lot. I'll think about the rest when I become stronger. If they are kind to me, I will repay them with a plum and return a peach. If they have malicious intentions, I won't wait to be killed. I don't know what kind of spirit ring I will get today."

"Your Highness Lin Po, it's time to set off." said the Soul Saint attendant at the door.

"Okay."

After a while, Lin Po was brought to Zhongli Wu's yard.

Zhongli Wu stood in the courtyard, with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance.

"Lin Po greets the teacher." Lin Po stood behind Zhongli Wu and spoke to him with the courtesy of a disciple.

Zhongli Wu turned around, looked Lin Po up and down, and nodded with satisfaction: "You've recovered well. Okay, let's go. Your first spirit ring has been prepared for you personally."

Lin Po was very surprised. Even if the first soul ring was a thousand-year soul ring, it was an exaggeration to prepare it personally by Zhongli Wu, a level 98 Super Douluo.

Looking at the surprised Lin Po, Zhongli Wu smiled and said, "Your martial soul is very special. I need to observe whether there will be any changes in your martial soul and its abilities after absorbing the spirit ring."

Lin Po understood, and then followed Zhongli Wu without saying a word.

Zhongli Wu walked slowly ahead and suddenly said, "Shrek, after two years of soaking in medicinal baths and your own training, your body is now strong enough to absorb a spirit ring of around 1500. Can you guess what kind of spirit ring your master will prepare for you?"

After hearing Zhongli Wu's test, Lin Po thought for a moment and responded, "My martial soul is my eyes. Although I don't know what abilities they possess, they are definitely related to mental strength. Therefore, absorbing spirit beasts with mental attributes is definitely the right choice."

Zhongli Wu nodded. "Yes, that's right. Although your spirit eye has mutated, it's still related to your mental strength. Therefore, your first spirit ring is an evil eye that's over 1,400 years old."

"Evil Eye? If I remember correctly, it should be a soul beast unique to the Sun-Moon Empire, famous for its powerful mental power." Lin Po pretended to be surprised. After all, no one had told him that this was the Sun-Moon Empire so far.

"Yeah, that's right."

Seeing that Zhongli Wu was unwilling to say anything more, Lin Po stopped asking questions. Seeing Lin Po's understanding, Zhongli Wu nodded secretly. He thought that he had good talent and knew when to advance and retreat. After two more years of testing, if there were no problems, he would make Lin Po the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Church.

After walking for more than ten minutes, they entered a secluded courtyard. The courtyard was very empty, with a cage in the middle. Inside the cage was an evil eye that could die at any moment.

Zhongli Wu stopped and said without turning back, "Go, kill it, this will be your first spirit ring."

Lin Po nodded in agreement, took a dagger soul guide from the accompanying Soul Saint, and walked towards the Evil Eye.

Without hesitation, he struck the Evil Eye dead with a single blow. A purple spirit ring condensed in mid-air. Following what he had learned from the book, Lin Po sat cross-legged on the ground, using his spirit power to draw the spirit ring into his body.

The moment the spirit ring approached, a massive surge of spirit power surged into his body, filling and expanding Lin Po's meridians. In this critical moment, Lin Po used his mental strength, which far surpassed that of his peers, to slowly guide the flow of spirit power. After a moment, after the first wave of spirit power had passed, the spirit ring's absorption gradually stabilized.

During the process of absorbing the soul ring, Lin Po felt that there was something strange in his eyes. He guessed what it was in an instant, but he didn't have time to think about it and continued to work hard to absorb the soul ring.

An hour later, the purple spirit ring was absorbed into his body. Lin Po opened his eyes, his eyes filled with excitement. He finally had his first spirit ring, a moment that was two years late.

"How is it?" Zhongli Wu walked over after seeing his disciple absorb the soul ring.

Lin Po calmed down his excitement, took a quick look at his own situation, and responded, "My soul power has broken through to level 17. It should be due to the digestion of the medicinal power in my body over the past two years, plus the significant soul power boost brought by this super-age soul ring."

"My soul skill is mental lock, which can lock onto multiple targets. The locked targets cannot escape my perception. The effective range is one thousand meters, and this range can be expanded as my mental strength grows."

Zhongli Wu nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad soul skills. With the cooperation of this soul skill, I will be able to hit the enemy with soul skills in the future."

"That's right, this soul skill will also be of great use in the future." Lin Po regained his composure and said frankly, "Also, my martial soul seems to have evolved and feels stronger than before."

Zhongli Wu immediately became interested, "Release your martial spirit and let's see."

After hearing this, Lin Po immediately released his martial spirit. His eyes were still blood red, but now they had a black pupil. Around the pupil, a black magatama appeared, constantly rotating around it.

Zhongli Wu observed for a while, carefully feeling Lin Po's martial soul, and said while stroking his chin, "It shouldn't be a martial soul evolution. The quality of your martial soul is already very high. The current state is more like an unsealing. As your strength increases, you will be able to withstand more of your martial soul's power. There is no problem at the moment, so you can rest assured."

"Since the soul ring absorption is complete, you can go back first. I have something else to do, and your training will begin tomorrow." Zhongli Wu saw that the task was completed, and began to wave his hand to drive people away.

"Okay, teacher."

Zhongli Wu left with satisfaction. Lin Po returned to his room as quickly as possible to sort out his gains.

The first soul ring has been obtained, and the soul skills are very good, which has won Lin Po's heart. And the martial soul has also been confirmed, which is the bloodline limit of Naruto, and the one-magatama Sharingan has greatly enhanced Lin Po's insight.

In addition, Lin Po also gained a pair of external soul bones for his eyes. Different from Huo Gua's external soul bones in the original novel, Lin Po's external soul bones are embedded in the eyeballs, similar to the two small round crystals of contact lenses.

After feeling the effects of the external soul bone, Lin Po thought to himself, "This external soul bone is quite concealed and will hardly be discovered. As for the effects, it increases mental power by 30%, reduces mental power consumption by 30%, and also comes with a soul skill that can cause mental shock. Not bad, it makes up for the shortcoming of no damage ability in the early stage, and these effects will be improved in the future."

The purple first ring, the soul bones attached to the eyes that cannot be discovered, and the most important martial soul, the Sharingan, the combination of these three makes Lin Po full of confidence in his future.

After a burst of excitement, Lin Po calmed down and sat cross-legged on the bed to prepare for cultivation. At this time, a strange yet familiar voice interrupted Lin Po's idea of ​​cultivation.

"Ding ~"
