Douluo Continent: My strongest soul beast was exposed by the Heavenly Curtain?

Chapter 58 Artificial Soul Rings, Automatic Advancement? (Please continue reading)

On the Douluo Continent, countless people could clearly see with their own eyes that a brand new spirit ring was being born in Li Yannian's hand in the sky.

It's not a phantom.

It's not a projection.

It is not a fabricated illusion created by the celestial curtain.

That was a true spirit ring.

Soul power flowed, rules condensed, and the ring was stable and pure, as if heaven and earth themselves had recognized its existence.

There is no need to hunt soul beasts.

There is no need to suffer any backlash.

It doesn't even require any traditional rituals.

Before anyone could react, the spirit ring had already taken shape.

At this moment, throughout the entire Douluo Continent, whether it was the imperial city, the sacred grounds of sects, the academy square, or the far north, the shores of Lake Life, or the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest, everyone who looked up at the sky fell into a brief silence.

Quiet.

A deathly silence.

The next instant, a shock, like a tsunami, swept across the heavens and earth.

"Soul—Soul Ring?!"

"He—he didn't do anything?!"

"No soul beasts? No sacrifices? They just appeared like this?!"

Countless Soul Masters subconsciously rubbed their eyes, fearing that what they were seeing was an illusion.

No matter how many times they watched it, the scene in the sky still clearly and cruelly told them that spirit rings could indeed be artificially created.

For the Dragon God, this scene was almost equivalent to his faith being torn apart.

【How is that possible?!】

In the celestial canopy, the Dragon God's majestic and ancient voice lost its composure for the first time.

How did you do that?!

This question was no longer a condescending judgment, but rather stemmed from instinctive shock and unease.

The Dragon God knew all too well what this meant.

Soul rings are the greatest bond between soul beasts and soul masters, and also the root of their conflicts.

But now, this "link" has been completely bypassed by humans.

Li Yannian did not answer immediately.

He simply raised his hand, letting the spirit ring slowly rotate in his palm.

Soul power surges like a tide, rules are as fine as silk threads.

The entire sky seemed to be making way for this spirit ring.

At the same time, the reactions of countless powerful figures on the Douluo Continent erupted almost simultaneously.

The Spirit Hall, Headquarters, Hall of Offerings.

Qian Daoliu stood beneath the statue, his long golden hair moving without wind, his soul power almost instantly spiraling out of control.

His golden eyes were fixed on the soul ring in the sky.

"This is impossible."

His voice was soft, yet carried a tremor that was almost absent-minded.

The Soul Ring system is the foundation of the Douluo Continent for ten thousand years.

Even a god could not easily shake it.

But now, Li Yannian has done it.

Inside the offering hall, terrifying fluctuations of soul power spread out in layers, causing the ground to crack and the pillars to tremble.

Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke in a deep voice: "The Grand Elder's cultivation has improved again."

But the next moment, he shook his head.

"However, it doesn't matter anymore."

All the offerings turned their gazes back to the heavens.

Because they all knew very well that what truly changed the world was not Sendo Ryu's breakthrough.

It was that spirit ring.

Under the watchful eyes of thousands, Li Yannian finally spoke.

The spirit ring in my hand was crafted using fragments of a spirit beast's soul.

One sentence caused an uproar across the entire continent once again.

[No living soul beast is required.]

[Only the remains of a soul beast are needed.]

This is not over yet.

Li Yannian's voice was calm and clear, yet it struck everyone's perceptions like a heavy hammer.

More importantly,

Soul beasts that die of natural causes can also be crafted.

Furthermore, the remains of a single spirit beast can be used to create several, or even a dozen, spirit rings.

boom!

At that moment, countless Soul Masters felt their minds explode.

A dozen or so spirit rings?!

A soul beast?!

Doesn't that mean that spirit rings are no longer scarce?

Is hunting no longer necessary?

The Dragon God remained silent.

This was the first time he had truly and seriously examined Li Yannian.

【how?】

Li Yannian raised his eyes and looked directly at the Dragon God.

[The sovereign of the Dragon Gods.]

Do you think my technology could be the key to the equal coexistence of humans and spirit beasts?

Inside and outside the canopy, everyone held their breath.

The Dragon God did not answer immediately.

But he knew very well that this was no longer a question of "whether or not".

If you don't accept it, you will be abandoned by the times.

After a brief silence, the Dragon God finally spoke slowly.

Since that's the case—

【Then you will be fully responsible for the production of this kind of spirit ring.】

We, the soul beast race, will provide the remains.

[In exchange for human cooperation.]

At that moment, the world seemed to fall silent for a brief instant.

This is the first time the Dragon God has yielded to humanity on the level of rules.

But he quickly raised another crucial question.

【but----】

Can spirit beasts of different ages only create spirit rings of the corresponding age?

If that's the case, we can't provide many remains of ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

As soon as the words were spoken, countless Soul Masters pricked up their ears.

This is the core issue.

If it can only be "manufactured on an equal footing", then the significance of artificial spirit rings will be halved.

Li Yannian laughed.

It was a kind of composure, as if the problem had been anticipated long ago.

【No.】

【Lord of the Dragon Gods, you've misunderstood.】

The spirit ring in my hand is far more complex than it appears.

As these words were spoken, the soul power within Li Yannian's body slowly began to change.

The next instant, the spirit ring suddenly lit up!

White!

Ten-year soul ring!

Before anyone could react, the white light intensified rapidly, turning yellow!

century!

The yellow color became even more intense!

millennium!

Immediately afterwards, purple suddenly erupted!

A ten-thousand-year-old soul ring!

The entire process was smooth and seamless.

As Li Yannian adjusted his soul power, the color and age of his soul rings changed in real time!

At this moment, the entire Douluo Continent fell completely silent.

The dragon god in the sky had its golden eyes wide open to the limit.

The dragon's body was tall and stiff as stone.

Without exception, everyone on the Douluo Continent was frozen in place by this scene.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

"Aaaaaaah!!!"

Yu Xiaogang broke down once again.

This time, it was more thorough than ever before.

"This is impossible!!!"

"How can a spirit ring grow?! How can it advance with spirit power?!"

His voice was sharp and out of control.

"If that's the case—if that's the case—"

His body was trembling.

"Doesn't that mean..."

"Anyone can reliably obtain a ten-thousand-year spirit ring?!"

"Even—the first spirit ring can grow into a ten-thousand-year spirit ring?!"

Tang San fell silent.

For the first time, the Shrek Seven Devils felt that their proud cultivation system was being completely crushed.

In the sky above, Li Yannian calmly delivered the final blow.

As a Soul Master's Soul Power level increases, their Soul Rings will also grow stronger.

[Until the theoretical upper limit of this stage is reached.]

【so,】

Even if it's just the remains of a ten-year-old soul beast, we still need it.

At this moment, the Dragon God had no more doubts.

The cooperation agreement has been formally reached.

Li Yannian thus acquired a brand new identity: Soul Beast Master.

They teach 100,000-year-old soul beasts how to grow, how to advance, and how to coexist with humans.

Under his guidance, for the first time, soul beasts and soul masters truly began to cooperate and coexist.

This scene is worthy of being recorded in history.

Lake of Life.

Gu Yuena gazed silently at the sky, her eyes growing increasingly profound.

Xiong Jun grinned broadly, "As expected of you, sir! I knew the Dragon God hadn't misjudged you!"

Di Tian and the other soul beasts nodded in unison.

However, just when everything seemed perfect...

Li Yannian, however, turned and left the human world.

Because the Douluo's will has begun to reject his continued interference.

But the seeds of a new order have already been sown.

This scene thoroughly provoked certain entities lurking in the shadows.
