Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass, Simulating Godhood

Chapter 34 The Seventh Soul Ring! Soul Douluo Level 83!

The simulation is still ongoing.

Standing amidst the ravaged remains of roots, you slowly lower your raised right hand. The core of the 100,000-year-old plant spirit beast is now fully exposed; the dark green sphere of light trembles incessantly, radiating a palpable sense of impending collapse. Its spiritual will, weakened by wave after wave of life-suppressing and hallucinogenic interference, has become scattered and feeble, utterly powerless to resist; only its most primal life force stubbornly sustains it.

You stepped forward and knelt before the dark green sphere of light. Without a word or hesitation, the power of Life's Return to Nothingness condensed in your palm, like a slowly rotating vortex of absorption, gradually stripping away, absorbing, and purifying the remaining life force of the 100,000-year-old plant spirit beast, ultimately condensing it into a deep red 100,000-year-old spirit ring, quietly suspended in mid-air.

[Seventh spirit ring, obtained.]

You sit cross-legged, drawing the spirit ring to your feet, closing your eyes, and guiding the vast life force into your body. Although this plant-based spirit beast excels in mimicry and defense, its essence, like the Blue Silver Emperor, belongs to the broad category of plants. Its energy contains extremely rich plant essence and earth power, perfectly matching your Golden Blue Silver Emperor. The absorption process, though somewhat lengthy, remains smooth and stable, without any unexpected disruptions.

About two hours later, you slowly opened your eyes. The seventh crimson spirit ring rose slowly from beneath your feet, echoing the previous six rings. The seven rings, arranged in purple, black, blue-purple, red, red, red, and red respectively, emitted a breathtaking seven-colored halo. The crimson light almost dyed the shadows of the entire valley blood-red.

[Two entirely new soul skill information flooded into your mind; these were two soul skills besides the Martial Soul True Body.]

[First Soul Skill, Roots of the Earth. In an instant, you can merge the roots of the Blue Silver Emperor with the earth, becoming an energy-absorbing network within a radius of a hundred feet. As long as your roots remain connected to the earth, you can continuously draw upon the power of the earth's veins to replenish your soul power, repair physical wounds, and perceive the movements of all things—truly an inexhaustible energy base. Within this domain, you are the earth itself; as long as your feet are on the ground, your soul power will never run dry, and your perception will be multiplied.]

[Second Soul Skill, Vine Armor. You can condense a layer of vine armor on your own body or a designated target's body, constructed from the life energy of the Blue Silver Emperor and the power of the earth. Its defensive power is extremely formidable, capable of withstanding a full-force attack from a Soul Douluo-level opponent. Simultaneously, it continuously heals the wearer's injuries and reduces soul power consumption, and also has a certain degree of damage reflection. Whether used for self-defense, protecting allies, or providing group protection in legion-level battles, it is an excellent strategic-level support Soul Skill.]

You stand up, clench your fist, and feel the increasingly powerful and profound flow of soul power within your body. Level seventy-nine—just one step away from becoming a Soul Douluo. You can even clearly sense the outline of that door already faintly appearing; a gentle push will open it.

However, your gaze immediately falls to the side. Among the remains of the plant-like soul beast, as the soul ring peels away, a piece of soul bone, entirely dark green with flowing dark gold patterns, is slowly detaching from the outer shell of its right forelimb. It emits a warm and ancient luster, as if it were a natural treasure formed from the depths of the earth.

[A 100,000-year-old right arm bone.]

You stepped forward and picked it up. It felt heavy in your hand, carrying a weighty quality like the earth itself. The energy contained within the soul bone was extremely pure, resonating strongly with your Golden Blue Silver Emperor, as if it had always been prepared for you. Without hesitation, you placed it on your right arm, slowly guiding its energy into your bones and meridians.

[The energy of this soul bone is slightly milder than the previous 180,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor left leg soul bone, but the total amount is still extremely large. Wave after wave of heavy energy from the depths of the earth surged into your right arm, re-tempering, strengthening, and elevating your arm bones. Your meridians were widened again, and a wisp of dark golden luster was infused into your blood. Your entire right arm became stronger and more powerful, as if it contained the power to move mountains and rivers.]

This absorption took about an hour, much faster than the absorption of the spirit ring. Once the spirit bone was completely integrated into your right arm, you clearly felt your spirit power level surge like a bursting dam, breaking through the level 79 bottleneck and climbing unstoppably to level 80, 81, 82, finally settling firmly on the threshold of level 83, the Soul Douluo level!

An indescribable sense of exhilaration surged through your body like an electric current. Every inch of your flesh rejoiced, every strand of your soul power surged. The feeling of power overflowing made you involuntarily tilt your head back and exhale a long, stale breath. The white breath shot through the air like an arrow for several meters before slowly dissipating.

At the same time, information about two brand-new Soul Bone skills clearly appeared in his mind.

[One of the right arm's soul bone skills, Earth Shattering. You can concentrate all your soul power in your right arm and slam it into the earth with the force of a punch, detonating the earth's vein power to create a massive shockwave of earth and rocks. This strike is enough to completely reshape the terrain within a hundred feet radius, possessing terrifying strategic value whether for breaking formations, clearing areas, or attacking distant targets. Even a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse would suffer greatly from taking this strike head-on.]

Standing in the center of the empty valley, you slowly exhale a breath of stale air, looking down at the even more dazzling Golden Blue Silver Emperor in your palm. You have now absorbed four 100,000-year-level soul bones and seven 100,000-year-level soul rings. Such a configuration of soul bones and rings is probably unparalleled in the entire history of the Douluo Continent. You vaguely sense that the accumulation needed for your next step towards becoming a Titled Douluo is drawing ever closer.

Your gaze sweeps across the valley littered with the wreckage of roots and fragments of broken scales. A lingering admiration remains for the tenacity and camouflage of this plant-spirit beast. Its legacy will accompany you as you grow, becoming the foundation upon which you climb to even greater heights.
