Chapter 282: Powerful Soul Guidance Devices

~14 min read 2,725 words

Ning Feiliu did not know the conversations Ning Fengzhi, the Sword Douluo, and the Bone Douluo had after he left; in his view, his departure from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future was an inevitability.

After all, he had always been an outsider; perhaps he was somewhat conflicted—on one hand, he did not consider himself a part of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, nor was he the original owner of this body, but on the other hand, he highly approved of his big brother, Ning Mingrui.

Therefore, because of Ning Mingrui, he had gone out of his way to help the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a great deal.

He made the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect more affluent and stronger, making it at least capable of dealing with the upcoming Soul Hunting Operation attack by the Spirit Hall, while also potentially evolving it into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the future.

This seemed like giving too much help; compared to what he gave Ning Mingrui and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, was the help Ning Mingrui gave him worth it? It was not worth it; the help Ning Mingrui gave might not even compare to a single Mysterious Water Pill.

But Ning Feiliu felt that he was just that kind of person; if someone was even a little good to him, he wanted to repay them tenfold, or even a hundredfold.

Is this hard to understand?

It is not hard to understand.

His personality is simply like this.

In this world, many things do not necessarily require so much calculation; if one calculates too much, one will become a person like Ning Fengzhi.

Even a little bit of family affection must be calculated to the end; only those who fit his value will be taken seriously by him.

But in many cases, not everything must be calculated, and one does not always have to look at how much the other party can give you.

People who are too shrewd easily calculate themselves into a trap, just like Ning Fengzhi; he only saw that the Crown Prince "Xue Qinghe" could provide him with a lot of value in the future, so he only invested in "Xue Qinghe," while ignoring the playboy Fourth Prince, Xue Beng.

In the end, he lost everything, leaving behind only a daughter who was a god in name only, unable to inherit his martial soul, and who was the Deputy Sect Master of the Tang Sect in reality, despite being the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Therefore, Ning Feiliu would not deliberately calculate so much; as long as he felt it was worth it, he would treat that person well, even at any cost.

Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo, Ye Lingling, his big brother Ning Mingrui, Shui Bing'er, and Shui Yue'er were all people he currently felt were worth everything, so he would treat them well at any cost.

He would even love the house and its crow, extending benefits to their relatives as well.

In his view, there was no such thing as whether it was worth it or not.

However, this had nothing to do with his decision to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Establishing his own sect in the future was inevitable; after all, he did not belong to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in the first place.

In the following period, Ning Feiliu's daily life remained the same: researching the next Soul Guidance Devices, and then, when he had leisure time, going to find Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and the others.

Finally, another month later, he had developed the remaining three Soul Guidance Devices: the "Moonstone Regenerator," the "Symbiotic Rabbit Shoes," and the "Phoenix Snake Wings."

"Moonstone Regenerator"—the equipped Spirit Master increases their own soul power and vitality recovery effect by fifty percent; it also comes with the soul skill Starlight Grace, which, within half an hour after active use, can enhance the effect of gain or Auxiliary System soul skills by one hundred percent, and at the same time, an Auxiliary System Spirit Master can apply their enhancement soul skills to two or three targets simultaneously.

"Symbiotic Rabbit Shoes"—the equipped Spirit Master increases their own speed by fifty percent; it also comes with the soul skill Teleportation, which can be used three times a day, with each use allowing for an instant movement of up to sixty meters.

"Phoenix Snake Wings"—equipped on the Spirit Master's back, it grants flight ability upon activation; it comes with the active soul skill Wind-Riding Lightning, allowing for rapid flight at the speed of a Ten Thousand Year Phoenix Tail Crested Snake for the duration of one stick of incense.

Then, he crafted five enhanced versions of the "Explorer Bracer," which could be activated once a day and could block even the attacks of a Title Douluo-level Spirit Master, providing invincible defense for 2.5 seconds.

As for the other Soul Guidance Devices, he thought about it and decided there was no need to make enhanced versions, so he let it be.

Then he took the five ordinary Explorer Bracers, the five enhanced Explorer Bracers, and two sets of the "Moonstone Regenerator," "Symbiotic Rabbit Shoes," and "Phoenix Snake Wings," and found Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.

"Here, Sister Yan, Lingling, these are gifts for you." Ning Feiliu specifically took two gift boxes to pack them, handed them to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling respectively, and said with a smile.

"What is this?" Dugu Yan asked curiously.

"Soul Guidance Device equipment," Ning Feiliu said with a smile, "Didn't I say I've been researching new types of Soul Guidance Devices during this time? I just happened to make a set for you to use."

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling both took them curiously, then they slowly opened them and discovered that inside were two blue-gold bracers, a special pendant, a pair of rabbit-fur long boots, and a pair of... transparent little feathered wings?

The two bracers were overall a gorgeous blue-gold, woven from exquisite metal threads, with a brilliant sapphire embedded on the surface, emitting a charming glow.

The overall design was elegant and noble, with smooth lines, as if it were a work of art.

The edges of the bracers were decorated with exquisite vine patterns, looking extremely delicate.

However, the bracer on the left seemed a bit lighter and more delicate, though the blue crystal on it looked more eye-catching.

And that pendant was oblate, with silver wing-like protective corners, and the green gemstone embedded in the middle emitted a deep, ghostly light.

As for the rabbit-fur long boots, they looked plain, but Ning Feiliu had painted one pair into emerald green boots and the other into purple boots according to Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's preferences for colors.

It just so happened that Dugu Yan preferred emerald green, while Ye Lingling preferred color schemes like pink, purple, and pink-purple.

As for those little transparent wings, the whole body looked like it was made of crystal, crystal clear, emitting a faint blue light.

The wings seemed to be carved with traces of feathers, and every feather shone with brilliant radiance, as beautiful as the starry sky.

"These... are all Soul Guidance Devices?" Ye Lingling said curiously, "Are they the kind of Soul Guidance Devices you mentioned, Feiliu?"

During this time, Ning Feiliu had of course told them what he was busy with, and even explained the effects of these Soul Guidance Devices.

"That's right, these two... I named them Explorer Bracers," Ning Feiliu picked up the two bracers and introduced them one by one, "I call this one the enhanced version of the Explorer Bracer... never mind, let's call it the Stagnation Bracer; it can only be used once a day."

"You can actively inject soul power yourself to increase the usage effect, but unless you are at the Title Douluo level, our soul power recharging is very slow, and might not even support the energy consumption of using the soul skill once."

"This is because the attached soul skill is called Invincible Golden Body; it can block even the attacks of a Title Douluo-level powerhouse, providing true invincibility for 2.5 seconds."

"For this ordinary Explorer Bracer, its Invincible Golden Body can only block the attacks of Spirit Masters below the Title Douluo level; it also stagnates for 2.5 seconds, but it can be used three times a day, and this one's self-recharging can support several releases."

"So powerful..." Dugu Yan opened her small mouth, looking at Ning Feiliu in disbelief, her beautiful eyes full of shock, and said.

Ye Lingling was also somewhat surprised, and... "Soul Guidance Device... can actually release soul skills?" she asked, somewhat unexpectedly.

"That's right, just like the Sun Box I gave you, Lingling, before, it can release soul skills," Ning Feiliu said with a smile.

In fact, compared to the Soul Guidance Devices he was researching now, the Sun Box was simply as crude as could be.

Because whether it was the Sun Box or the Steel Sun Box, what they released couldn't be called soul skills at all; they were simply releasing the energy stored inside.

Only Soul Guidance Devices like the Explorer Bracer truly released soul skills, using a Soul Skill Core to release a soul skill identical to one performed by a Spirit Master.

"Then what about this?" Dugu Yan asked curiously, picking up the silver pendant again.

"This, I call it the Moonstone Regenerator," Ning Feiliu said with a smile, "It is mainly for enhancing Auxiliary System Spirit Masters, but Battle Soul Masters can use it as well."

"The effect is that it comes with the soul skill Starlight Grace, which, within half an hour after active use, can enhance the effect of one's own gain or Auxiliary System soul skills by one hundred percent, and at the same time, an Auxiliary System Spirit Master can apply their enhancement soul skills to two or three targets simultaneously."

"Enhance the effect of one's own gain or Auxiliary System soul skills by one hundred percent!" Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were both full of shock at this moment.

That is to say, with the Moonstone Regenerator, if they were Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Spirit Masters, their soul skill enhancement effects would double.

For example, Ning Fengzhi... his current enhancement effect is eighty percent; with the Moonstone Regenerator's one hundred percent enhancement of auxiliary soul skills, wouldn't that be one hundred and... sixty percent? Yet it really was like that, even if the value was a bit exaggerated.

But the effect of the Moonstone Regenerator was indeed like that; as for the most important material, Moon Stone, Ning Feiliu had gone to great pains to produce a batch at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

The Moonstone Regenerator, which carries the power of moonlight, is truly effective.

Ning Feiliu actually took it over to let Ning Fengzhi test it before confirming that this effect was indeed error-free, but its soul power consumption rate is also extremely fast; this enhancement of a high-level Spirit Master's amplification effect only takes one minute to completely drain the energy of a Soul Power Crystal that could supply the Explorer Bracer with three uses of Invincible Golden Body.

But Ning Fengzhi suddenly discovered a bug...

That is, he can inject soul power into the Soul Power Crystal himself to recharge it, thereby extending the amplification effect of the Moonstone Regenerator.

At the same time, he can even use Seven Treasure True Body himself, using the soul power consumption halving effect of Seven Treasure True Body to further extend the duration of the Moonstone Regenerator.

Ning Feiliu expressed... genius! He immediately thought that other Soul Guidance Devices could also be injected with soul power by oneself, and using the soul skills attached to Soul Guidance Devices in this way was also feasible.

However, he tried it himself, and with his current terrifying amount of soul power, he could only allow the Stagnation Bracer to use an enhanced version of Invincible Golden Body one more time.

That goes without saying for Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.

However, Ning Feiliu still has the Rune of Presence of Mind; simply put, as long as he keeps fighting in group battles, his soul power recovery can sustain his continuous use of Invincible Golden Body, which is absolutely no problem.

But Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling can only use the soul skills attached to the Explorer Bracer and Stagnation Bracer as they did before.

However, other Soul Guidance Devices can indeed have their soul skill durations extended by injecting soul power oneself.

For example, the Phoenix Snake Wings; one can indeed continuously inject soul power to fly or use the soul skill Wind-Riding Lightning.

"This, the Symbiotic Rabbit Shoes, increases the wearer's speed by fifty percent, and also comes with the soul skill Teleportation, which can be used three times a day, with each use capable of instantly moving a maximum distance of sixty meters." Ning Feiliu picked up the Symbiotic Rabbit Shoes and Phoenix Snake Wings and continued his introduction.

"This, the Phoenix Snake Wings, can grant flight ability after activation, and comes with the active soul skill Wind-Riding Lightning, allowing one to fly rapidly at the speed of a Ten Thousand Year Phoenix Tail Crested Snake for the duration of one stick of incense."

After listening to Ning Feiliu's introduction, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling didn't know what to say.

At first, they actually thought that these Soul Guidance Devices capable of performing soul skills didn't possess any particularly powerful soul skills.

But the soul skills attached to these Soul Guidance Devices are one more powerful than the last.

An Invincible Golden Body that can even block the attacks of a Title Douluo, a Starlight Grace that provides a one hundred percent boost to gains and amplification effects, a Teleportation soul skill that can move sixty meters instantly, and a flight soul skill.

"Feiliu, these Soul Guidance Devices you've researched are truly... I feel that if the Spirit Master world finds out about the effects of these Soul Guidance Devices, it will likely cause a huge stir." Dugu Yan said with emotion.

Indeed, these Soul Guidance Devices don't need to absorb Soul Rings at all, nor do they require one to have a massive amount of soul power, yet they can directly release powerful soul skills...

Who wouldn't be bewildered by this?

At the same time, it also gives people the feeling that one can become stronger without working hard at cultivation.

However, the development of the era is indeed like this; in the original plot, as Soul Guidance Device technology developed, the Spirit Master's own efforts began to become somewhat less important.

Even later on, when Battle Armor appeared, the Spirit Master's own cultivation became even less important.

Because although Battle Armor has certain requirements for a Spirit Master's soul power and mental power, the strength of any Battle Armor Master is more than twenty levels higher than a Spirit Master of the same rank.

For example, if a One-Word Battle Armor Master is originally a five-ring, after putting on the Battle Armor, their strength is equivalent to a seven-ring.

A Two-Word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to an eight-ring, a Three-Word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to a nine-ring, and a Four-Word Battle Armor Master is equivalent to a Limit Douluo.

Is this not more unfair than these Soul Guidance Devices of Ning Feiliu's? However, the use of these Soul Guidance Devices of Ning Feiliu's actually has no requirements.

But the help given to Spirit Masters at present won't be too outrageous; for example, even if the Moonstone Regenerator has the most heaven-defying effect, it is impossible for Ning Fengzhi to help a Soul Saint defeat a Title Douluo.

Even if a Soul Saint is amplified ten times, it is only at the level of a Soul Douluo, and it is absolutely impossible to cross ranks to fight a Title Douluo.

However... the amplification of these Soul Guidance Devices is still very large.

After all, there is a saying: "More rings and more bones, skills and power in one wave; fewer rings and fewer bones, turn tail and run."

In a sense, these Soul Guidance Devices are equivalent to an external soul bone!
