Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 27 A 100,000-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone! The Theory of Luck!

Zhu Ziyang suppressed his smile, put away the Jing Shi Xiu Ming Scythe, and continued to sort through his harvest.

Following the increase in soul power and the evolution of his martial soul, came the 100,000-year soul ring of the Silver Dragon Wolf. The 100,000-year soul ring provided his Heavenly Frost Sacred White Dragon martial soul with two soul skills. One was the Heavenly Frost Ice Dragon Claw, which Zhu Ziyang had used before, allowing Zhu Ziyang's power to instantly increase to three to four times his maximum power, making it extremely powerful. The other was an even more powerful control-type soul skill.

Besides a 100,000-year soul ring, a 100,000-year soul beast will always produce a soul bone. The soul bone left behind by the Silver Dragon Wolf is a right arm bone, which Zhu Ziyang calls: Silver Dragon Wolf Right Arm Bone!

The Silver Dragon Wolf's right arm bone also possesses two major soul skills. One is a control-type soul skill, "Frozen Time," which releases absolute zero ice to freeze time. Within Zhu Ziyang's influence range, time is frozen for 3 seconds! Currently, Zhu Ziyang's influence range is five meters. It can only be used once every three days. The other is an offensive soul skill, "Dragon Wolf Extreme Cold Strike," which gathers the extreme cold of ice to release a freezing ray of light that freezes everything. This is the Dragon Wolf's signature soul skill.

Having fused with a 100,000-year spirit ring and a 100,000-year spirit bone, Zhu Ziyang's physical strength has been greatly enhanced, allowing him to easily withstand the power of a 10,000-year spirit ring. Once he reaches the fourth ring, he can directly consider 10,000-year spirit beasts.

Finally, according to the legacy in the Silver Dragon Wolf's memory, it was sacrificed to Zhu Ziyang, and the fortune it carried would be inherited by Zhu Ziyang.

Luck, a mysterious and enigmatic concept, has been studied by numerous scholars across the continent, yet no substantial conclusions have been reached. Where does luck originate? How is it quantified? What are its patterns? These are all mysteries that Soul Masters cannot unravel. Aside from a few ancient and powerful sects that pass down their stories orally, the Soul Master world knows nothing about luck.

Zhu Ziyang had read an explanation of fortune by a certain pope of the Spirit Hall in the ancient church books. According to the pope, fortune is bestowed upon the spirit beast race. Only in large gathering places of spirit beasts is it possible for auspicious beasts that can carry fortune to be born. All spirit beasts in areas with auspicious beasts will receive the blessings of heaven and earth.

These were three seemingly statements, but in reality, they said nothing at all. However, this at least made Zhu Ziyang understand one thing: auspicious beasts could grant other soul beasts the blessings of heaven and earth.

What is the blessing of heaven and earth? It is a special state in which cultivation speed increases, cultivation bottlenecks decrease, and cultivation effects are twice as effective. It is a rare and highly sought-after state of enhancement.

What changes will occur when humans inherit the fortune of auspicious beasts? Zhu Ziyang pondered deeply.

After a moment, Zhu Ziyang shook his head and decided to put the matter aside for the time being.

After sorting out his gains, Zhu Ziyang calmed himself down, then extended his right hand, palm up, his gaze focused, and a ray of light appeared in his palm.

Looking at the light in his palm, Zhu Ziyang's lips curled up. With a thought, the light in his palm disappeared, and then a thin layer of frost appeared in his palm.

"Not bad!" Zhu Ziyang waved his hand, the frost in his hand dissipated, and a smile appeared on his face.

As the possessor of the ultimate martial soul, his affinity for the light element barely reaches ninety, while his affinity for the ice element reaches ninety-five.

The affinity for the Light element has just reached the lower limit of the ultimate attribute, which is ninety. Don't underestimate this ninety elemental affinity, because countless geniuses with unparalleled talent spend their entire lives trying to raise it from eighty-nine to ninety. Eighty-nine and ninety, just a tiny difference, are worlds apart!

Because his elemental affinity exceeds ninety, Zhu Ziyang's control over the light and ice elements has become instinctive, as natural as eating and sleeping—a unique talent possessed by those with ultimate martial souls. His actions just now are the best proof of this.

After everything was over, Zhu Ziyang prepared to go home. Only then did he realize that he had been naked the whole time. But he remained calm and unhurriedly took out a set of clothes from his jade bracelet and put them on. While putting on the clothes, he felt that they seemed to be a little ill-fitting, but he didn't care. Instead, he quickly ran towards Beihezhuang.

If you don't come home all night, Liang Ying will probably be angry. It's best to go home as soon as possible.

He arrived home quickly.

He had barely stepped inside when Liang Ying approached and said, "Zhu Ziyang, you've really made something of yourself! You even stay out all night now! Do you think you're so great just because you've become a Soul Master? Humph, don't think I won't beat you up just because you have the same soul power level as your mother!"

Liang Ying had recently broken through to the Soul Master level and obtained a Soul Ring, reaching level 32 in Soul Power, which is why she said that. However, she didn't know that her good son had already reached level 35.

"Hehe, no way! I just had a sudden realization last night, so I didn't come back!" Zhu Ziyang said with a smile, offering an explanation before readily admitting his mistake, "Mom, I was wrong, I won't do it again!"

"Hmph! You're smart enough to know what's good for you!" Liang Ying snorted with satisfaction, then suddenly stared at Zhu Ziyang and stopped talking.

The way she looked at him, as if he were a stranger, puzzled Zhu Ziyang. He touched his face and asked, "Mom, is there something on my face? Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I didn't even realize my son had grown so tall and handsome!" Liang Ying murmured, a look of satisfaction and pride on her face.

"Mom, why are you suddenly praising me? I'm a little embarrassed! Hehe!" Zhu Ziyang couldn't help but smile smugly when he heard Liang Ying's words.

"It's all my fault, I didn't even notice that my son's clothes don't fit anymore!" Liang Ying stepped forward, tugged at Zhu Ziyang's clothes, and said with a sense of self-reproach.

"How can I blame you? It's just that I've grown too fast!" Zhu Ziyang realized that he seemed to have grown quite a bit taller overnight, but he wasn't in the mood to think about the reason. Instead, he put his arm around Liang Ying's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Go away, you're just talking nonsense!" Upon hearing this, Liang Ying's self-reproach disappeared. She playfully punched Zhu Ziyang's shoulder and said, "Come with me, find some of your dad's clothes to wear for the day. Mom will make you some new clothes today."

"Okay!" Zhu Ziyang followed Liang Ying eagerly and replied.

After changing his clothes, Zhu Ziyang stood in front of the mirror and realized that he had indeed changed quite a bit. He was now over 1.7 meters tall, almost 1.75 meters. His delicate face, influenced by the evolution of his martial soul, had gained a touch of gentle temperament and a cool demeanor, which was extremely attractive to young girls just beginning to experience love.

"I'm getting more and more handsome!" Zhu Ziyang thought to himself, a little narcissistic, as he looked in the mirror.

Zhu Ziyang decided to go find Jiang Nannan.

"Nannan!" Zhu Ziyang found Jiang Nannan at her home.

The girl was practicing Soft Techniques in the backyard. These were combat techniques honed by Soft Bone Rabbit Soul Masters over thousands of years, and their origins were naturally related to that Soft Bone Douluo. Soft Techniques could effectively utilize the flexibility of the Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul in combat, and when developed to its extreme, it could even achieve the effect of using minimal force to overcome great strength.

Although Jiang Nannan did not follow the traditional path of a Soft Bone Rabbit Soul Master, her soft skills were still very helpful in her fighting style.

"Oh! Brother Ziyang, you're back!" Jiang Nannan's face lit up with joy upon seeing Zhu Ziyang, then she looked surprised and said, "Brother Ziyang, why do I feel like you've changed?"

Zhu Ziyang stayed at Jiang Nannan's house for half a day.

-

That night, Zhu Ziyang sat on his bed, preparing to cultivate.

Just as he entered meditation, an aged voice reached his ears: "Holding the sun and moon in your hands and plucking stars from the sky, there is no one like me in this world. I never imagined that my remnant soul would be able to survive!"
