Chapter 82: Strange Red Light, The Danger to Qian Renxue
A 1,500-year Spirit Ring did not exceed the limit of the third ring, so for Nan Feiling, who had consumed an Immortal Herb, there was not the slightest problem.
One hour later, Nan Feiling's soul power had already stabilized, successfully forming her soul skill and completing the strengthening of her body and soul power, reaching level 31.
"Hee hee, a ten-year-old Soul Elder; now, this Princess can also be called a peerless genius, right?" Nan Feiling was immensely proud. The current her was truly a candidate for a Title Douluo!
"Alright, stop being so smug. You should thank your younger brother; without him, you would likely have needed at least fourteen or fifteen years to reach today's level." Nan Tianchen tapped his daughter on the head; she was truly getting too carried away.
"Hehe, Father, Daughter knows. Daughter will not forget younger brother's help." Nan Feiling smiled adorably. She was a doting sister by nature, and now that her younger brother was so good to her, she naturally cherished this biological brother even more.
Lan Xue smiled and said, "Alright, then next, once we find Dian Wei's third Spirit Ring, the few children can go back."
Dian Wei's aptitude was much stronger than Nan Feiling's; having consumed Whale Glue and an Immortal Herb consecutively, his capacity to withstand Spirit Rings was definitely much stronger than Nan Feiling's.
Therefore, there was a high probability he could absorb a Spirit Ring above his level.
Moreover, unlike Nan Feiling, he had already reached level 30. It was impossible for the Strange Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum not to increase his soul power; as long as he had one Spirit Ring, the medicinal power within his body could be truly ignited.
A suitable third ring was very important for Dian Wei.
At the same time, Qian Renxue and the other two had already arrived in the deeper parts of the forest. In the place where they were, ten-thousand-year-level Spirit Beasts could be seen everywhere.
Just not far from them, in a cave near the Life Lake, flames swirled. That creature that had hissed because of Nan Feihuang back then opened its blood-red eyes once again.
It felt it; it had once again sensed the arrival of Nan Feihuang.
Back then, due to certain factors, it did not dare to go out to meet him, but today, no matter what, it had to go out to see him.
A blood-red light rushed out of the cave, its speed even countless times faster than the limit speed of Lan Xue, a Title Douluo.
"Angel Light Blade!"
Qian Renxue had by this time already found a Spirit Beast suitable for herself, a Heavenly Spirit Horse with a cultivation of twenty thousand years.
The Heavenly Spirit Horse was a sacred-attribute Spirit Beast possessing the bloodline of the legendary Spirit Beast, the Unicorn. Like the unicorn, it was rumored to be a pure horse that only an ice-clean and jade-pure virgin could ride, making it just right as Qian Renxue's sixth Spirit Ring.
It was said that there was also a type of bicorn, which was the exact opposite of the sacred Heavenly Spirit Horse; it possessed an evil attribute and was the mount of succubi. It would absolutely never let a pure young girl ride it; on the contrary, the dirtier the woman, the better.
Qian Renxue was ice-clean and jade-pure, so if she wanted to sit on the back of this Heavenly Spirit Horse, there would be no problem at all.
But the Heavenly Spirit Horse was not an idiot. Just because it liked being ridden by a pure young girl did not mean it liked being hunted. Since its life was at stake, it didn't matter how pure she was.
Thus, it rose up to resist. The inherited soul skill of the Heavenly Spirit Horse clan was called Holy Spirit Light Bomb.
It spat a light ball with a sacred attribute from its mouth to attack the enemy, capable of purifying evil.
As a twenty-thousand-plus-year Spirit Beast, its cultivation was slightly superior to Qian Renxue's, but Qian Renxue's martial soul was special; the Six-Winged Angel fighting above its level was like a daily routine.
With one slash of the Angel Light Blade, the Holy Spirit Light Bomb was cut into two halves.
Seeing this, the Heavenly Spirit Horse did not give up, but instead fired light bombs in succession, exerting its soul power to shoot out two more.
Unfortunately, Qian Renxue did not come alone; she still had two Title Douluo by her side.
One saw those two Douluo not even releasing their martial souls, but relying solely on the formidable physical strength of Title Douluo, they shattered the light bombs it fired with brute force.
The gap in strength was obvious; the strength of a twenty-thousand-plus-year Spirit Beast was only between that of a Soul Emperor and a Spirit Saint.
At this moment, Qian Renxue's Light Sword had no more obstacles, and with one sword slash, it struck the Heavenly Spirit Horse's chest, instantly knocking it to the ground.
Qian Renxue was just about to step forward to deliver the final blow, yet at this very moment, the red light that had just rushed out of the cave, for some reason, charged toward this side again.
"What is that? Young Master, be careful!" How keen was the danger perception of a Title Douluo? She Long and Ci Xue immediately had their martial souls possess them, blocking in front of Qian Renxue.
Around each of the two men circled nine Spirit Rings: two yellow, three purple, and four black.
The reason these two guys had not had any progress in their soul power for so many years was perhaps related to this non-optimal Spirit Ring configuration.
Early-stage Spirit Rings might seem to have little impact on later battles, but they significantly affect one's foundation.
How important the foundation is, many people are very clear about; the saying "if the foundation is not firm, the earth will shake and the mountains will sway" is not just something said casually.
Ma Hongjun from the original work, wasn't it precisely because he did not work hard in his cultivation when he was young, leading to an unstable foundation, that even though he had the qualifications to open the Fire God trials, he still failed, and in the end, could only settle for the next best thing and choose the Second-Class God, the Phoenix God?
Of course, even if the potential of these two had reached its end, it did not mean their strength was weak.
Even if it was not the optimal Spirit Ring configuration, it did not affect the fact that they were Title Douluo.
The two exerted their soul power and struck out with a palm simultaneously; the powerful impact of the Title Douluo level clashed head-on with that fire light.
They had originally thought that it should have been a tug-of-war, but unexpectedly, just as the two sides made contact, Snake Spear Douluo and Citun Douluo felt their entire body's blood and Qi surging, feeling abnormally uncomfortable.
The next second, both were sent flying, spitting blood from their mouths.
"She Shu, Ci Shu, how are you?" Qian Renxue looked at the red light in front of her with both surprise and fear. She could not see clearly what kind of thing was inside the red light, but to be able to heavily injure two Title Douluo in an instant, she feared it was not something an ordinary Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast could do.
"Young Master, run! This is a monster; we are absolutely not its match. Ci Xue, you take the Young Master and leave first, this old man will cover the rear. Seventh Soul Skill: Weapon Soul Avatar!" She Long's seventh Spirit Ring lit up, and the snake spear in his hand underwent a change, transforming into a huge golden two-headed snake.
This was the rarest type of Spirit Avatar: Weapon Soul Avatar with Beast Spirit Transformation.
It possessed both the beast-transformation amplification of a Beast Spirit and the toughness and strength of a Tool Spirit; it was a top-tier existence among Spirit Avatars.
The golden two-headed snake rushed into the red light. Ci Xue took this opportunity to come to Qian Renxue's side, grabbed her shoulder, and said, "Young Master, this monster's strength is too terrifying. Even She Long, who possesses the Weapon Soul Avatar with Beast Spirit Transformation, cannot block it for too long. Let's escape quickly."
Having said that, Ci Xue did not wait for Qian Renxue to reply, turned into a torrent, and fled rapidly.
Yet, not even two seconds after they fled, the golden snake that She Long had transformed into was flicked out of the red light.
The golden snake's body was full of wounds, and there were many traces of burns; it quickly turned back into an ordinary snake spear.
She Long had not expected that his full strength in his avatar state could not even persist for three seconds against the monster inside this red light, and his Weapon Soul Avatar had even been dispersed.
