Douluo Continent: Awakening the Original Martial Soul at the Start.

Chapter 12 Soul Hunting (Part 4)

"The two forces are the soul power contained within the soul ring and the spiritual power carried by the remnant soul of the soul beast. Resisting the soul power is very simple, as long as the physical fitness of the body meets the standard. The difficulty lies in dealing with the spiritual power of the remnant soul of the soul beast. This requires focusing on improving spiritual power during meditation, which is the result of long-term accumulation. My brother was able to withstand an eight-hundred-year soul ring because we paid close attention to improving our physical fitness and spiritual power every day after awakening for a year."

Li Fei laid out all his theories without reservation. He dared not hold anything back. Although the Spirit Hall was very friendly to commoners, its status in the Soul Master world was unquestionable. Going against it without absolute strength was simply courting death.

He was not Tang Hao; his father was a Soul King, and he didn't have a super sect like the Clear Sky Sect backing him up.

"Physical fitness and mental strength?!" Qian Renxue murmured, then looked up and asked, "How is mental strength assessed?!"

"The simplest way is to withstand the mental pressure from high-level Soul Masters; the stronger the mental strength, the greater the pressure!"

This was also Li Fei and Li Fan's testing method. Through the mental pressure of Li Fan, the Soul King, the two roughly knew their limits. This is also why Li Ming and Jiang Xin dared to let Li Fan and Li Fei absorb soul rings beyond their limits. Otherwise, what parents would let their children take such a risk?

"That's definitely a good idea!" Qian Renxue nodded, finding it very reasonable. She looked up and continued, "You sounded very confident when you explained this theory, so you must be able to absorb spirit rings beyond your limits. What kind of spirit beast do you want?! What age do you want?!"

"As expected, the heirs of powerful families are never simple!"

He sighed inwardly, knowing that Qian Renxue was still somewhat unsure about her theory and wanted to find someone else to test it. One person's success might be accidental, but if two people succeeded, it would mean that the theory was very likely to be successful.

"Your Highness, my target soul beast is the Gluttonous Pig, which is just over a thousand years old!"

Knowing he couldn't resist, Li Fei went along with it and immediately said respectfully.

"Uncle Yu, could you make this trip?" Qian Renxue turned to look at Yu Long!

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Yu Long nodded slightly, and his whole body disappeared in a blur. In less than three minutes, a gluttonous boar that was just over a thousand years old crashed to the ground, and Yu Long returned to behind Qian Renxue.

"Please!"

Without hesitation, Li Fei picked up the short sword from Li Fan's hand and chopped off the Gluttonous Boar's head with a single strike. A pale purple soul ring appeared above the Gluttonous Boar.

"That's some real strength! The attack power of that sword strike is comparable to some powerful offensive Soul Masters! It seems that this kid's theory might actually be true." Yu Long was somewhat surprised and began to believe Li Fei's words.

Li Fei sat cross-legged on the ground, meditating and guiding the soul ring to begin absorbing energy. As the soul ring was put on his body, thick streams of soul power surged into his body. Along with the soul power came streams of spiritual energy, which rushed directly along the meridians to the Baihui acupoint.

A series of sharp pains began to emanate from his body and mind. Li Fei dared not be careless and endured the pain to begin meditating. His own soul power also began to circulate through the body in the simplest way, refining the soul power brought by the soul ring. He focused his mind on Baihui (GV20) and began to resist the mental impact of the Gluttonous Pig.

As time passed, Li Fei felt the pain gradually lessen until it became bearable, followed by a feeling of comfort.

Li Fei's expression became calm, and the soul power he emitted was much stronger than before.

"Your Highness, it seems this lad has succeeded. Judging from the fluctuations in his soul power, he should be at level fifteen!"

Sensing that Li Fei's soul power and spirit had calmed down, Yu Long leaned down and whispered in Qian Renxue's ear.

"Okay, I understand. We'll talk about the rest when he wakes up!"

"yes!"

At this moment, Qian Renxue looked at Li Fei with surprise, but more so with curiosity and envy. Through their previous conversation, she knew that this young man was only a year older than her, yet he had such strong opinions, completely different from her. Most importantly, his parents loved him very much, as could be seen from their subconscious actions of protecting Li Fei and Li Fan with their hands.

Li Fei's refining speed was slightly faster than Li Fan's. In less than three hours, he felt that there was no more alien soul power or Gluttonous Pig's spiritual power in his body.

It was already dark by now, and the Star Dou Great Forest was extremely dangerous. However, with two newly promoted Title Douluos beside Li Fei's family, they were practically safe in this area.

Slowly rising to his feet, a pale purple soul ring was placed around Li Fei's body, shimmering with a faint glow. Instantly, Li Fei felt a warm sensation in his stomach, and streams of powerful soul energy circulated through his meridians, completing the simplest cycle of Qi circulation.

"Not bad, it seems your theory is true!" Qian Renxue looked at the faint purple soul ring with some surprise on her face.

"You flatter me, Holy Maiden!" Li Fei remained humble and composed, showing no joy at obtaining the first ring of the millennium, which made Yu Long and Ci Tong look at him with new respect.

"Since you have unique insights into soul ring absorption, then let me ask you how to configure soul rings for someone with innate level 20 soul power?!" Qian Renxue asked Li Fei with a smile.

She had just awakened her martial soul this year and reached an unprecedented level of innate level 20 soul power. She was originally annoyed that she hadn't found a suitable soul beast, but now she was filled with joy. She was glad that she had met this man and that she could also surpass her limits to absorb soul rings.

"Level 20 innate?! If it really is level 20, even without training or meditation, the age of the first soul ring should be able to be absorbed for about 600 years; once you get systematic training, the first soul ring of a thousand years will be a piece of cake!" Li Fei said, pretending to think.

"Alright! Report to Wuhun City in two weeks. From now on, you'll be my best man during my cultivation!" Upon receiving the answer, Qian Renxue nodded with a broad smile.

"Yes, sir!"

Knowing that resistance would only bring disaster to the Li family, Li Feibao agreed without hesitation. Moreover, he also needed the Spirit Hall to provide him with a simulated cultivation environment to improve his cultivation speed.

"Let's go, Uncle Yu, we'll postpone the spirit hunting for now!"

After saying that, Qian Renxue turned around and walked towards the outside of the Star Dou Great Forest. Yu Long and the porcupine followed behind her. Li Fei and his family quickly followed. Yu Long only glanced at her and did not say anything.

This relieved Li Ming and Jiang Xin. With a Title Douluo leading the way, the family could safely leave the Star Dou Great Forest in the darkness.
