In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 232 Unexpected and Reasonable

Thinking of this, everyone suddenly became envious of the divinely bestowed inner core in Qian Daoliu's hand. After all, it was equivalent to a "fresh" 100,000-year soul ring. If they brought it back to their respective forces, they could cultivate a level 90 quasi-titled Douluo in the future...

Ugh.

However, in the end, everyone present could only suppress their regrets and mixed feelings. After all, today's occasion was too important, and besides, the divine inner core in Qian Daoliu's hands came from the Angel God, so it was not their turn to obtain it.

As for seizing by force, that's no joke.

The Holy Sword warns!!

Ning Fengzhi, Xue Ye, and the other people from Tiandou City secretly looked at Salas, and could only sigh in their hearts that the Spirit Hall was about to produce another talent. There was also Chen Xin, who, despite recently breaking through to level 97, couldn't help but envy Salas.

Although Salas already knew about this matter, he still couldn't help but be excited when the divine elixir was truly passed into his hands.

"Begin absorbing. The method is to swallow the inner core, feel the power surging within your body, and then circulate your soul power as you normally would when absorbing a soul ring, gradually condensing the soul ring."

Qian Daoliu glanced at him, then calmly stood next to him, making a gesture as if he were to personally protect him.

Salas was somewhat flattered, but when he realized that Qian Daoliu's actions were not because he was about to break through to the Title Douluo level, but because he was the first person to publicly reveal his inner core soul ring experiment, he quickly calmed down.

He couldn't afford to be complacent. If he were to be careless, not only would his own path to advancement be jeopardized, but if he messed up the whole thing, the Spirit Hall would no longer tolerate him.

Immediately afterwards, his expression turned serious, and he swallowed the colorless inner core, then sat down cross-legged.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, eight spirit rings of perfect proportion slowly rose around Salas's body, and on the last, eighth spirit ring, the outline of a transparent spirit ring gradually appeared.

Seeing this, everyone's expressions varied, but they all tacitly refrained from making a sound to disturb them.

Soon the originally transparent outline of the spirit ring turned white, then quickly turned yellow and purple, symbolizing that the age energy of Salas's ninth spirit ring was gradually increasing.

Once the black color, representing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, was reached, the spirit ring's color began to deepen little by little, and the speed was no longer as fast as before. Everyone quickly understood this after a moment's thought.

After all, the human body is not an inanimate object. If you pour water into a cup, it will overflow. How much more so when a person has to withstand the gradual increase of domineering energy over tens of thousands of years.

Of course, Salas could actually bear the physical pressure, since he was absorbing an inner core spirit ring, unlike when absorbing a spirit beast spirit ring where he had to face the soul shock pressure at the same time.

Time passed little by little.

The ninth spirit ring hovering around Salas grew increasingly dark, and everyone could even faintly see a hint of red beneath its black color.

Just as everyone was waiting with different feelings for Salas's ninth spirit ring to completely turn blood red, Salas's aura suddenly stabilized, and the spirit ring's color was completely fixed in a "blackish-red" state.

"?!?!"

With his experience, Chen Xin immediately realized that Salas's fixed ninth spirit ring was very close to 100,000 years old, about 99,000 years old, which was similar to his ninth spirit ring that produced the powerful spirit skill "God and Demon Slash".

"What's going on?"

Qian Daoliu couldn't help but look at Salas, his brows furrowing slightly.

The inner core, which is similar to a divinely bestowed soul ring, given by the angel god—well, actually the angel god's divine will—cannot be wrong. So the problem must lie with Salas.

"My body..."

Salas looked pale and unwell, and could only sigh in the end.

"Sigh, I've been stuck at level 89 for too long. I'm too old to withstand the domineering energy of a 100,000-year soul ring."

"I'm sorry, High Priest, there's nothing wrong with my inner core and spirit ring. It's just that my body is severely depleted due to aging. I've done my best, and I also hope that my ninth spirit ring will be 100,000 years old..."

As he spoke, Salas couldn't help but feel a little regretful. His Highness the Holy Son (Wang Zhao) had repeatedly asked him to be more restrained in that area, but he hadn't listened.

Normally, all quasi-titled Douluo should be able to withstand the energy of a 100,000-year spirit ring. The reason why he failed to condense a 100,000-year ninth spirit ring this time is partly due to his advanced age, but it cannot be ignored that he has always been "vigorous in his old age" and indulged himself!

This incident teaches us that young people need to be moderate! (doge.jpg)

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu simply shook his head in disappointment and said nothing more.

Seeing this, the leaders of other major forces and top experts understood that the inner core and soul ring system was generally not the problem.

However, the issue of Soul Master physique will likely receive widespread attention after this event, which is destined to be recorded in history.

Getting back to the original topic, Salas's situation was actually both unexpected and reasonable. After all, Ning Fengzhi, who also frequented the upper echelons of Tiandou City, must have known quite a bit about Salas.

What a waste of this divinely bestowed soul ring core! Salas is squandering its potential!

Many more people are secretly complaining.

It would be better to leave the opportunities to the younger generation...

Just then, no one noticed that Salas was emanating an invisible power of faith, which slowly rose into the void and disappeared.

Afterwards, the two sides continued their discussion on the matter of the soul beast clans scattered throughout the mainland.

According to Qian Daoliu, this incident was orchestrated by the Angel God and the Soul Beast Lord, and the Soul Beast race should rightfully benefit from it. Therefore, the human delegation would not act unreasonably.

The final conclusion reached was that the leaders present should, upon returning, restrain the members of their respective factions and try to avoid interfering in the territories of soul beasts across the continent.

Meanwhile, the Spirit Hall will expedite the production of the first batch of spirit ring cores for distribution across the mainland.

It's worth mentioning that, perhaps to appease the other forces present, the Spirit Hall, in their view, was extremely confident in the divinely bestowed secret method for creating spirit rings and inner cores, something the other forces lacked the ability to replicate. Ultimately, the Spirit Hall agreed to give the other forces a small share, granting them certain resale rights.

Of course, the leader of the "enterprise" of spirit rings and inner cores must still be the Spirit Hall, since the core secret techniques are firmly in the hands of the Spirit Hall, and the spirit rings and inner cores sold by other major forces can only come from the Spirit Hall.
