Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 153 One Year

"I lost."

Just before his vital energy and soul power were about to be exhausted, Ning Wuque took a step back and voluntarily deactivated his Blood Gold True Body, returning to his original form and standing in place, watching Wu Ming slowly descend from mid-air.

He lost, which was an expected result. His opponent was a seven-ring Soul Saint with a top-tier Beast Martial Soul, who could kill an ordinary Soul Emperor with a single kick.

Wu Ming's soul skills are all powerful. When he deals full damage, Ning Wuque's "health bar" drops piece by piece. If the opponent were to activate his Martial Soul True Form and use six soul skills without restriction, Ning Wuque felt that he might not be able to last even a minute!

Since it was just a cut, he decided to stop short of defeat.

"You little bastard, you had a good time cursing just now! But you are indeed very capable. In a head-on confrontation with that form, no Soul Emperor would be a match for you. You are a complete monster."

Wu Ming, being a forgiving person, readily forgave Ning Wuque's earlier offense, knowing that it might have been one of the side effects of him activating that special soul skill.

In her memory, Ning Wuque was still very polite, and boys who like to read and study are usually very quiet. His swearing just now could only be a side effect of his soul skill.

Ning Wuque bowed in gratitude for Wu Ming's forgiveness.

"Thank you for your understanding, Sister Ming. I gained a lot from this battle against Soul Master Wuque, and I have come to realize the gap between myself and Soul Saint."

After saying this, Ning Wuque began to regulate his breathing and recuperate, while the whispers of the spectators could be heard around him.

After the battle ended, everyone dispersed shortly afterward. Wu Ming and Zhang Lexuan said goodbye and left as well.

Ning Wuque was pulled along by Ning Tian and Wu Feng as they walked out of the academy. Today was a rare day off, so how could they not relax?

Ning Wuque did not refuse. He had already figured out his future path, and he could leave his daily training for the evenings, squeezing out time for cultivation.

Anyway, he is passively increasing his cultivation every moment. This speed is roughly equivalent to the total amount of soul power that a level 5 innate soul power soul master can absorb and convert every day. It's neither too much nor too little.

Time is like doing homework; by the time you remember it, it's already too late.

Soon, a year had quietly passed.

Ning Wuque did not waste any time during this year.

Using a week as a benchmark, he would spend Monday through Friday in Shrek's large library, training and enriching his collection of books and knowledge to optimize his future direction.

At night, one might cultivate soul power, research how to use the exploding ring to accelerate cultivation, or investigate and deduce some hidden dangers and shortcomings of the middle three gates.

On Saturdays, he would leave the library and either go to the outer courtyard's Great Soul Arena to fight two Soul King seniors using only their physical bodies, or he would meet up with Senior Sister Wu Ming to practice using the Standing Tall Stance.

There's not much to say about physical combat; it's purely something Ning Wuque enjoys, but it doesn't really have much effect on him anymore, unless it's a life-or-death battle.

However, he has made great progress in standing tall and firm. Now he can not only fully control the frenzied battle intent that appears when he transforms into the Blood Gold Giant, but he can also last for a full two minutes when fighting against Wu Ming's Martial Soul True Body!

In the evening, he would accompany Ning Tian and Wu Feng to stroll through the night market, and then stay overnight at their home. Occasionally, there would be some small perks, but he was generally very restrained, limited to kissing, hugging, and cuddling. If Ning Tian was in the mood, he would also touch their hands and feet.

After all, Ning Wuque was already fourteen years old and had reached the Great Perfection stage. Now he's fifteen, and in another three years he can basically get married.

Finally, Sunday arrived, and Sunday daytime became even simpler. Ning Wuque didn't know when it started, but every Sunday he would dedicate all his daytime hours to Ning Tian and Wu Feng.

From the time the two woke up at six in the morning until ten at night when he sent them back, Ning Wuque left all his time to them, while he was dragged around to wander around and play.

We drink the same juice, eat the same cake, watch the same news, and enjoy the morning dew and evening glow from the same perspective.

In the evening, he would return to Shrek's Great Library, where he would train and search for books to read.

This cycle repeats itself every seven days, perhaps interspersed with occasional minor incidents:

For example, Ning Tian needs his help, Wu Feng is bullied by older students and he needs to stand up for him, or he needs to show his face during the entrance exam, etc.

Generally speaking, the daily routine of each seven-day period remained largely unchanged, continuing until today: "The effect is so-so. It takes half an hour to absorb all the energy from the explosion of the two spirit rings, along with my own spirit power? Putting aside the wasted energy, the efficiency is too slow!"

After finishing his cultivation, Ning Wuque sensed the increase in his soul power.

A year later, his soul power level had soared to level thirty-seven. At that time, the thousand-year soul ring allowed him to reach level thirty-two after his level breakthrough.

Reaching level five in a year is basically equivalent to the highest cultivation speed before becoming a Soul Saint with full innate soul power and not possessing an ultimate martial soul.

With normal innate full soul power, under the amplification of various external forces, one can only reach level four or occasionally level five in a year at most.

But that wasn't enough, far from enough. Ning Wuque was still not satisfied with this. He wanted to break through at an even faster pace!

The reason is simple: when he reaches the fourth level of the Ninefold Yama Gate, he can then eat the immortal herb.

According to Ning Wuque and Electrolux's calculations, the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum would be most effective if he digested it while attempting to break through to the fourth ring.

The core of his fourth challenge lies in mastering soul power and blood energy. Only by ensuring that the soul power within his body is always flowing smoothly can his physical body be guided by the soul power to flow smoothly.

The main function of the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is to open up the internal organs, circulate Qi and blood through the limbs and meridians. During the soul power impact of the Four Rings exploding, it can assist Ning Wuque in guiding the soul power of his whole body to form a fixed reflux.

This is a flow of soul power that will not change in the slightest, no matter how much soul power impacts its body in the future. It will only make the flow thicker and wider, and at the same time, it will extend into many small corridors that spread throughout the body, so that the soul power in its blood, flesh and bones will be replenished the moment it is consumed.

After completing these steps, you can then refine your body through ice and fire, thus achieving a solid foundation both internally and externally, and a unified flow of energy.

Then, with the aid of sea pressure to temper the body, making the physical body solid and firm, the fourth level will be a level that can be opened naturally!

Perhaps you've gone in the wrong direction? Wuque, the human body is like a funnel; no matter how much water is poured out, only a small amount can escape, but...
