Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 13 The Fifth Soul Ring

Because of Ye Xiaofan's arrival, it was safer for Yuan Changqing's family to hunt for spirit rings. His grandparents, parents, and others completed their spirit ring hunting under the guidance of his uncle.

Over the years, Yuan Changqing frequently visited Soto City and, while chatting with the blacksmith at the Iron Hammer family's shop, he also gleaned some useful information.

News of the Haotian Twin Stars is now circulating in Douluo Continent. Yuan Changqing guessed that Tang Hao might be about the same age as him, but he didn't know if they had encountered the Blue Silver Emperor, Ah Yin.

Yuan Changqing also planned to go to Tiandou City after obtaining his fifth spirit ring, and also to look for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

Yuan Changqing's blacksmithing skills have now reached the level of a thousand forgings.

The bracelet-shaped soul tool was also repaired; upon inspection, it was found that the innermost core component had been damaged.

Through understanding this soul tool, Yuan Changqing learned about the manufacturing process of soul tools, including the outer shell, the soul tool core, and the inscription of runes.

These are similar to the magical artifacts I craft using feng shui techniques, only the runes are different. It seems that it is still a difference in the world.

Since reaching the Thousand Refinement level, I have been experimenting with the rune route map on that Soul Guidance Core, wasting a lot of my precious materials.

This broke Yuan Changqing's heart; it was all money, and he wasn't wealthy to begin with.

In the end, the route map of the soul guide core runes was perfected. Finally, using the rune engraving knife he made himself, he engraved a new soul guide core, added a new outer shell, and assembled a new soul guide storage bracelet.

Having obtained a 5-cubic-meter storage bracelet, he continued his efforts and made storage soul tools for each member of the family, in both bracelet and pendant styles.

As for storage rings, because the core components are too large and I haven't had access to other soul tools, such as their size, I can't make one.

These are things that he cannot make himself right now; Yuan Changqing can only copy them at most.

...

Six months later, Yuan Changqing and his aunt both reached level 50 Quasi-Soul King.

Since the chosen spirit path is the offensive type, the fourth spirit skill is to hunt the Iron Sword Tree, and the resulting spirit skill is Blade Storm, a spirit skill that attacks continuously. The fifth spirit skill is also planned to be an offensive spirit ring.

Grandpa had already verified this before, and the effect was quite good. This also enabled Grandpa and Grandma's martial souls to evolve into intermediate martial souls after reaching the level of Soul King, at the level of Blue Silver to Black Iron.

Yuan Changqing's parents, aunt, and he himself had already evolved to the Blue Silver Grass Black Iron level when they reached their third spirit ring.

After two days of preparation, we were heading to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for a Soul Ring.

The group of five—grandparents, aunt and uncle, and himself—embarked on the journey to hunt for spirit rings.

Because the Star Dou Great Forest was very dangerous, Dad, Mom, and Wang Yuyan stayed at home to take care of the children.

...

It is located at the edge of the Starry Sky Forest.

My uncle-in-law is the strongest and most experienced, and he is leading the team this time.

"We're about to enter the Star Dou Great Forest. This time, we're hunting ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts."

"So everyone must maintain formation and stay alert."

"Now I'll walk in front, Mom and Linglong will walk side by side behind me, Changqing will be behind, and Dad will be at the back. Everyone get ready, we're about to set off."

"good!"

Everyone answered in unison.

So everyone mustered their spirits and entered the forest.

The aunt's fourth soul skill is Thorn Cage, and her fifth soul skill is prepared to hunt down Vajra Vine.

Because my grandparents used to hunt spirit beasts in that area, they know that those spirit beasts might be in that location.

The group searched in the forest for a day. Although they knew the location, the spirit beasts might not necessarily be there. They only knew the general location, but they still couldn't find a suitable one.

That evening, my uncle began making arrangements for the overnight stay.

"Since there are some nocturnal spirit beasts tonight, everyone must not sleep too soundly. Therefore, everyone should take turns keeping watch."

"I'm the strongest here, so I'll guard the first half of the night. Dad, you guard the second half. We don't know how long we'll be in the forest."

"So, we'll take turns coming over these few days."

"Okay, Xiao Fan, we understand."

After dinner, everyone except my uncle started to rest, since they had been in a state of high concentration all day.

The next day, the group continued their journey and finally found the Vajra Vine that the aunt needed. Because Blue Silver Grass is a herbaceous plant-type soul beast, it is relatively fragile. Therefore, the purpose of choosing a soul beast is to enhance its hardness and toughness.

Therefore, one must be selective in choosing a soul beast, and the Vajra Vine is a very suitable one.

Uncle said, "Mom, you control the Vine now, and Dad and I will finish this quickly."

"Changqing and Linglong should observe their surroundings and communicate promptly if anything happens to avoid any emergencies."

"good!"

After everyone responded, they all settled into their places.

"Initiate the attack."

"Fifth Soul Skill, Frost Sword".

"..."

After a barrage of attacks from the three, coupled with the fact that the uncle's fire-attribute martial soul was effective against plant-type soul beasts, the Vajra Vine was quickly brought to the brink of death.

"Linglong, prepare to kill the soul beast and absorb the soul ring."

The aunt took out a long sword and killed the soul beast with one strike. A black soul ring appeared, and the aunt sat down on the ground to absorb the soul ring.

Yuan Changqing said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle, you should recover your soul power first. I will protect you. I will call you if anything happens."

"it is good."

"Changqing, keep an eye on your surroundings and speak up immediately if anything happens."

After responding, the three of them each found a place to recover their soul power, while Yuan Changqing also kept an eye on the surrounding movements.

Two hours later, after the aunt had absorbed the spirit ring, everyone gathered together again, found a place, and began to spend the night resting.

...

In the Starry Sky Forest, there is a valley with an icy eye, so cold it chills to the bone, making the entire valley feel like an ice cave.

Outside the valley, Yuan Changqing and his group appeared, hoping to find the soul beast Frost Sword Grass they needed.

Upon entering the valley, the group began searching for a ten-thousand-year-old Ice Sword Grass Soul Beast.

After searching for a while, they found a suitable Ice Sword Grass not far from the Ice Eye.

Uncle Ye Xiaofan observed the surrounding situation.

"We don't know much about the situation at this ice eye either. I estimate that there might be a powerful ice-attribute soul beast sleeping beneath it."

"We don't know if we'll wake it up when we hunt the soul beast later."

"Do you guys think we should leave this place, or risk a hunt?"

Grandpa's last spirit ring was attached in the Northern Ice Plains, so my aunt's husband's idea is that if we give up here, it would be better to go to the Ice Plains to get the spirit ring.
