Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 33 The Third Soul Ring

Swish!

Jiang Li brought his two fingers together, and a sharp sword aura shot into the roots of the Crimson Blood Thorn.

As the sword energy struck the roots of the Crimson Blood Thorn, the thorn, already corroded by the poison, died completely.

Then, a purple soul ring emerged from the Crimson Thorns.

Huff—Jiang Li took a deep breath, then sat cross-legged and began refining the soul ring.

With the spirit ring entering his body, powerful spirit energy surged through Jiang Li's body.

Generally speaking, a five-thousand-year soul ring is something a Soul Master should absorb, but Jiang Li's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. The first two soul rings provided him with powerful vitality, and after consuming the immortal herb, his martial soul evolved, which nearly doubled his vitality, so he didn't feel particularly uncomfortable.

"I feel a bit full, but it's okay." Jiang Li reacted the moment he sensed the soul ring's power.

"In that case, why not..." Without thinking, Jiang Li activated the Yin-Yang Technique, guiding the excess soul power to the Du Meridian.

"puff!"

With the impact of soul power, Jiang Li's Du Meridian was opened, and the remaining pure soul power was slowly absorbed through the operation of the Yin-Yang Technique.

Outside, Dugu Bo was intently watching Jiang Li's reaction to absorbing the spirit ring. If Jiang Li couldn't withstand it, Dugu Bo would intervene to stop him.

"Grandpa, how is Jiang Li?" Dugu Yan asked with a puzzled look.

As the granddaughter of a Title Douluo, it's impossible for her to lack any perspective; Dugu Yan also knew how dangerous it was to absorb knowledge beyond her level.

"He's fine, his condition is stable, he'll be alright in a bit," Dugu Bo said.

As time passed, the aura of soul power emanating from Jiang Li continued to increase.

Three hours later, the purple spirit ring was completely attached to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of stale air, and then began to observe his own condition.

His soul power level reached level 33. Tang San, who absorbed the two-thousand-year soul ring and external soul bone beyond his limit, was only at level 32, and was just stuck at the level 30 threshold. He was different. He was only level 23 when he absorbed the Black Jade Divine Bamboo. The evolution of his martial soul consumed a lot of medicinal power. The remaining medicinal power allowed him to reach level 30. Part of the soul power of the five-thousand-year soul ring was used to open the Du Meridian, and the rest was used to break through the bottleneck and increase his level by three.

"How is it?" Dugu Bo looked at Jiang Li. With his cultivation level, he could tell at a glance that Jiang Li's cultivation had reached level thirty-three.

"It feels great. My soul power level has reached level 33. As for soul skills..." Jiang Li said, waving his right hand. A large number of Blue Silver Grass sprouted from various angles, their sharp leaves gleaming coldly in the night sky.

"This is my third soul skill, which I call Blue Silver Strangulation. When Blue Silver Grass surrounds an enemy, it will cause cutting damage, and it can also be used in conjunction with my first soul skill."

As for the changes in his martial soul, he inherited the sharpness, regeneration, and resilience of the Crimson Thorns. After saying this, Jiang Li began to observe his own martial soul.

As before, it is dark blue, and the leaves are like small swords. The difference is that the length has increased a lot, to about half a meter. The patterns on it have changed from half gold and half silver to light gold. Although it has inherited the sharp attribute, no thorns have been produced on the Blue Silver Grass. Its toughness has increased by about 40%, which is a good inheritance of the characteristics of Crimson Thorn.

It can be said that Jiang Li has now improved in all aspects. His cultivation speed is no longer slow, his attack power has also increased, and he can recover quickly if he is injured. According to Jiang Li's estimation, ordinary Soul Sect members would not be able to defeat him.

Dugu Bo gasped, realizing that the abnormality of this soul skill was not just due to its nature, but also because it touched upon the martial soul. What does a weak martial soul represent? It means that it has potential. As long as it is nurtured properly, it may not be impossible to break through the limit. Jiang Li in front of him was a perfect example.

Of course, that's all there is to it. If it weren't for the immortal herbs, Jiang Li would need at least a long time to undergo a transformation.

"Xiao Li, you no longer have any weaknesses. As long as you continue to cultivate step by step, you will definitely become a strong person. There is nothing I can do for you except protect you from harm. The only thing I can do is help you in obtaining soul rings," Dugu Bo said.

"Huh? What are you saying? Protecting me and helping me obtain the soul ring are the most important things. Everything else is trivial," Jiang Li said.

Jiang Li believes that in addition to teaching knowledge, a master should also have strong strength and be able to protect the personal safety of his apprentices. If you don't have these abilities, you shouldn't take on apprentices. Don't you agree?

Meanwhile, in Nottingham.

"Achoo!" Yu Xiaogang, who was studying the development direction of Blue Silver Grass, suddenly sneezed.

"Strange, could it be that someone is talking about this master?" Yu Xiaogang was confused by the sudden sneeze and thought someone was talking about him.

"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's see which direction the Blue Silver Grass is best suited for. The Spirit Hall, and the ignorant masses of the continent, I will make you pay the price!"

…………

Jiang Li knew nothing about Yu Xiaogang; he was just a good-for-nothing, what could he possibly accomplish?

"Alright, now it's time to choose a spirit ring for my good junior nephew. Tell me, how many years do you want? Your uncle will find one for you." Jiang Li said cheekily, since Dugu Yan had messed with him so casually before.

"Jiang! Li! That's enough! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you've been taken in as my grandfather's disciple. Don't forget you're not even as old as me!" Dugu Yan was humiliated by Jiang Li calling her "junior niece." What kind of person was he? He was clearly younger than her, how dare he call her "junior niece"?

The two then started playfully fighting.

"Haha, stop fooling around. How about this, we'll each call each other by our own way. Jiang Li will call me Master, and you'll call her Sister Yan. How about that?" Dugu Bo said, stopping the two of them who were acting like sworn enemies.

The two stopped what they were doing when they heard Dugu Bo's words. Then Dugu Yan glanced at Jiang Li, snorted, and turned her head away.

Jiang Li didn't have any particular thoughts. He didn't care much about how he was addressed. His rude remarks earlier were just revenge for Dugu Yan's previous physical contact with him, and he didn't feel anything special about it.

"Since there are no objections, let's help Yan Yan obtain a soul ring. Xiao Li, your ability is quite useful. Use your ability to search for one. Yan Yan's body is not as strong as yours, so let's find a sub-dragon soul beast that is about three thousand years old for Yan Yan," Dugu Bo said.

Jiang Li nodded upon hearing this. Dugu Yan's physical fitness was inferior to his, and the soul power of the dragon soul beast was more violent than that of the plant type. Therefore, the three-thousand-year soul beast was just the right age for Dugu Yan.

Jiang Li then began to sense the Blue Silver Grass and started collecting dragon-type soul beasts that were over two thousand years old.

Before long, Jiang Li found a suitable soul beast for Dugu Yan based on the information about the Blue Silver Grass.

"Let's go, we found it. It's over 2,800 years old, and the dragon blood is quite abundant," Jiang Li said to Dugu Bo.

The three then headed towards the direction of the soul beast that Jiang Li had sensed.
