237. Chapter 235: Disappearance of Spirit Rings
……
"High Priest, something happened."
Wuhun City, Angel Temple.
"What's wrong?" Qian Daoliu opened his eyes.
"Recently, Wuhun Halls everywhere reported that Spirit Masters went to hunt spirit beasts, but they couldn't obtain spirit rings," Golden Crocodile said.
Qian Daoliu was startled. "What do you mean?"
"The spirit rings born after the death of spirit beasts cannot be absorbed," Golden Crocodile said.
"If a Spirit Master tries to draw a spirit ring, that thing will explode."
"Hundred-year spirit rings are okay, they will explode as long as you try to draw and absorb them, but thousand-year and ten-thousand-year spirit rings will explode when they are attached halfway. Exploding in that situation, no matter what kind of Spirit Master it is, they can't bear it and will explode and die on the spot."
Qian Daoliu frowned. "All of them are like this?"
"Yes," Golden Crocodile said.
"The news reported by Wuhun Halls everywhere is like this. Now no one dares to hunt spirit rings, and no one dares to kill spirit beasts."
"Because the explosion of that kind of spirit ring, the power far exceeds the corresponding spirit skill, more like the Clear Sky Sect's Ring Explosion, or even more thorough. The energy in the spirit ring is all exploded at once, and the power is extremely terrifying. Many people have already been blown to death."
"In many places, it is said that this is God's punishment, and human Spirit Masters can no longer cultivate from now on."
"Also..."
"Also what?" Qian Daoliu asked.
"Some people say this is Nan Feng's curse," Golden Crocodile said.
"Why? What does this have to do with him?" Qian Daoliu asked, puzzled.
"Because Nan Feng has expressed more than once in public that human slaughter of spirit beasts will eventually eat its own bitter fruit," Golden Crocodile said.
"If humans think this wrong way is a correct one, then be prepared to bear the price of this correctness."
"Moreover, many people know that Nan Feng brings many spirit beasts with him, so... many people believe it."
Qian Daoliu frowned. "What else happened?"
Golden Crocodile hesitated. "There are rumors everywhere that Spirit Masters are about to disappear, the violent organization standing on everyone's head is about to collapse, the Douluo Continent is about to usher in true liberation, Nan Feng is right, this must be Nan Feng's doing, it is Nan Feng's heroic soul protecting them."
"Even... even in many places, temples dedicated to Nan Feng have appeared. They firmly believe that Spirit Masters have no future."
"A profession that is about to go extinct is no longer worthy of their respect, nor is it worthy of their worship."
"Commoners have started to rebel."
Spirit Masters can become a respected profession because of the power of Spirit Masters, the privileges of Spirit Masters, and the core of supplying the Spirit Master class with the entire grassroots.
But now, Spirit Masters are about to disappear, and even those who want to become Spirit Masters have their path completely cut off.
Unable to become a privileged class, completely losing hope of becoming a privileged class, those people no longer have any concerns! "How did the two empires handle it?" Qian Daoliu asked.
"They didn't handle it," Golden Crocodile said.
"The two empires have a mixed management system. The disappearance of Spirit Masters has little impact on them." Spirit
After all, the work of officials is complicated, Spirit Masters need to spend a massive amount of time cultivating, and the profession of Spirit Master makes money quickly; there are simply not many Spirit Masters who would think about climbing the official ladder to get rich.
Therefore, the vast majority of officials in the two great empires are non-Spirit Masters.
Now, with the disappearance of spirit rings, the ones most affected are these large Spirit Master sects, as well as the Spirit Hall.
And among the Spirit Master sects, the one least affected is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
For that group of merchants, the power of Spirit Masters is merely to ensure the safe conduct of commercial transactions, so that the rules of trade are not forcibly broken by Spirit Masters possessing powerful strength; moreover, for a support-type Spirit Master sect like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the power of Spirit Masters was never an important factor to begin with.
The essence of commerce is trade, and powerful, excessive strength is a rather unstable negative influence on trade.
Furthermore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is a major, established house, not those upstarts who got rich overnight from one or two deals; they care more about long-term development!
It is no exaggeration to say that without powerful Spirit Masters, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can actually develop even better! Because they no longer need to spend more energy on preventing excessive power from breaking trade.
With less expenditure, there is more profit!
Now, quite a few Spirit Masters from the Spirit Hall are jumping ship to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
This work was organized and uploaded by 69 Book Bar~~
The power of Spirit Masters has lost its permanence, their descendants can no longer become Spirit Masters, and the Spirit Master class, which is about to be universally reviled, is in urgent need of huddling together for warmth!
And since the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is both a Spirit Master sect and a commercial organization, joining at a time like this is their final means of fighting for more benefits!
If you don't have power, at least you still have money! "No Spirit Master riots?" Qian Daoliu asked suspiciously.
Not all Spirit Masters rely on Spirit Master organizations; a large portion of Spirit Masters are freelance personnel. In such chaotic times, wouldn't those guys cause trouble?
"There are, but the impact is not great," Jin E said.
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect seems to have been prepared for a long time. They prepared a large amount of weapons in various places. Once any Spirit Master causes trouble, they directly distribute the weapons and let those ringleaders who were prepared early on lead the commoners to fire a thousand arrows at once!"
"Those Spirit Masters who intended to fish in troubled waters are now all dismembered and hung high on the streets."
"Spirit Masters will also bleed, Spirit Masters will also feel fear, Spirit Masters will also die; Spirit Masters are no longer high and mighty."
"Are they not afraid of the Spirit Masters' desperate counterattack before death?" Qian Daoliu asked.
The high-powered weapons developed nowadays can indeed cause fatal injuries to Spirit Masters, but that is only when the Spirit Masters are caught off guard.
If they were to go head-to-head, those weapons would require a huge price to cause fatal damage to a Spirit Master.
Moreover, ordinary people have no spirit skills; once a Spirit Master releases a spirit skill, they can only wait for death.
It's not as if there haven't been rebellions by the commoner class in the history of the Douluo Continent, but every time it was all thunder and little rain; after making a scene and having a few more people die, it would quiet down.
Even mindless Spirit Beast groups would feel fear when facing a powerful Spirit Master, let alone humans? "Before, they were afraid, and now they are also afraid, but..." Jin E's expression was somewhat unnatural.
"Grand Elder, it's not like you don't know what Nan Feng did."
"One person's strength is not enough, but a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand—even if you can't kill the opponent, you can exhaust them to death. This kind of talk would definitely not have been taken seriously in the past, but now those soul tools have given them the power to kill high-level Spirit Masters."
"Once they have hope, those people are crazy."
"Once the shackles of slaves are opened, it is very difficult to put them back on." (End of chapter)
