Chapter 236: Bai Chuan's Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring

~13 min read 2,498 words

After hearing Bai Chuan's words, Li Xuan also slowly opened his eyes.

"Alright, Bai Shu, sit near the Geng Gold Grass, and then I'll begin." Li Xuan nodded and said that to Bai Chuan.

"Yes, young master." Bai Chuan nodded in response, then used his soul power to form a protective shield that bore the surrounding dense Geng Gold aura and arrived near the Geng Gold Grass.

Bai Chuan mobilized the soul power within his body, then sat cross‑legged, closed his eyes to cultivate, preparing to receive the Sacrifice.

Li Xuan watched Bai Chuan, nodded with satisfaction, then closed his eyes again, slowly released his soul power, and entered the Spiritual World of the Geng Gold Grass.

Compared with the Purple Thunder Walnut tree, the Geng Gold Grass takes even less time from sprouting to Hundred‑Thousand‑Year Cultivation, so its Spiritual World is smaller and therefore easier to control.

After mastering the Geng Gold Grass, Li Xuan found that the Geng Gold aura was by no means weaker than the lightning power of the Purple Thunder Walnut, and was even sharper and more ferocious.

"The Geng Gold Grass must be of higher quality than the Purple Thunder Walnut tree, hehe, Bai Shu found a good thing." Li Xuan chuckled to himself, then began to mobilize the blood‑line power of the Geng Gold Grass.

Second by second, the Geng Gold Grass gradually withered, and all the soul skills within its body were poured into Bai Chuan's body.

"Haha, Bai Shu, now is not the time to thank me; seize the moment to solidify your cultivation, and later we'll go drink." Li Xuan smiled at Bai Chuan and said.

Li Xuan finally took a lazy nap.

This Hundred‑Thousand‑Year Geng Gold Grass soul bone should be considerably stronger than the hereditary soul bone of the Bai Chuan family.

Li Xuan absorbed the soul of the Filthy Flame Yin Lotus and the soul of a blood‑red nine‑headed bat, resulting in his soul power becoming abnormally strong, yet there remained a great amount of soul power he could not absorb.

Therefore, the Hundred‑Thousand‑Year Soul Ring offers the best cost‑performance ratio, and of course, it is also the safest.

"Thank you, young master, for the rebirth grace!" Bai Chuan said excitedly to Li Xuan.

The soul power within the Geng Gold Grass continuously strengthened Bai Chuan's body, nourished his meridians, and purified his soul power.

Then the two of them simultaneously began to slowly retract their Domains back into their bodies.

Next, Li Xuan dealt with the problems that Zhou Chen couldn't handle during this period, then entered the Heaven‑Palm Bottle space and, after returning to the room, Li Xuan directly entered the Heaven‑Palm Bottle space again, began to write down the ideas he had conceived on the road over these days, and after organizing them, compiled them into a small booklet.

The next day at noon.

This process is long and meticulous, requiring a great amount of time.

At this moment Bai Chuan, with a rosy complexion, lay on the ground, breathing evenly; it seemed nothing serious had happened, only that he hadn't awakened for unknown reasons.

Li Xuan was also within the Geng Gold Domain and sensed the sharp intent emanating from Bai Chuan.

"I've broken through to level 85, mainly because a portion of energy split from the Soul Ring helped reconstruct my right arm; otherwise, I could have risen to level 86," Bai Chuan nodded at Li Xuan and said.

Li Xuan also specially took out a wine recipe and gave it to Tao Lin, letting Tao Lin brew the medicinal wine.

"Young master, little young master." Bai Chuan smiled toward Li Xuan and Bang Chui.

Suddenly, Li Xuan thought of soul power.

"Damn, it turned into an egg; quickly record it." Li Xuan hurriedly took out a notebook and recorded the process of Bai Chuan absorbing the Soul Ring.

Li Xuan also had many things he wanted to ask Bai Chuan, but for now he could only wait until Bai Chuan's cultivation stabilizes.

"By the way, Bang Chui, come over." Li Xuan suddenly thought of something and called out to Bang Chui.

A roar of anger burst from Bai Chuan's mouth, and the next second a dense Silver‑White Energy surged from his body, enveloping him.

Moreover, having undergone a Sacrifice, Li Xuan had already grasped some key points.

An hour later, Bai Chuan finally solidified his cultivation completely.

Within this Geng Gold Domain, the unstoppable forward thrust of Bai Chuan's sword technique was amplified infinitely, enough to affect others within the Domain.

After hearing Bang Chui, Li Xuan glanced at Bai Chuan's arm.

Another half hour passed, the Silver‑White Energy slowly dissipated into the air, revealing Bai Chuan inside, and the sword intent in the surrounding air gradually faded.

Unlike the test subject, the moment the blood‑red Soul Ring appeared, it abruptly contracted and entered Bai Chuan's body directly.

Next, Bai Chuan began to stabilize his cultivation.

"Brother! Brother! Brother! Bai Shu's arm, look at Bai Shu's arm!" Bang Chui suddenly, excitedly pulled Li Xuan and said to him.

At the instant all the soul power of the Geng Gold Grass vanished, the silver‑white formation beneath his feet swiftly turned red.

It is a sign of high compatibility between the Soul Ring and the martial soul.

Suddenly, several cultivation levels were added out of thin air, and Bai Chuan needed to adapt. After his cultivation stabilized, Bai Chuan slowly opened his eyes.

There is no sun or moon inside the Heaven‑Palm Bottle, so Li Xuan could not tell how much time had passed.

Soon, a unique piece of information entered Li Xuan's mind; after a quick verification, he found that the Sacrifice methods are basically the same, with only slight differences in some aspects.

The next second, Bai Chuan's martial soul 'Broken Sword Tiger Soul' suddenly manifested out of nowhere, reflecting brilliantly with the light formation beneath his feet.

A transparent soul power radiated outward from Bai Chuan as its center, forming a field controlled by him.

"Indeed, young master, the Geng Gold Domain greatly amplifies my martial soul; please feel it." Bai Chuan nodded, then his thoughts shifted.

"The dust has settled; it seems my Fourth Soul Ring can also absorb a Hundred‑Thousand‑Year one, and even the soul bone!" Li Xuan leapt up from the bed excitedly. Although he is capable of cultivating a Million‑Year soul beast, the Million‑Year Soul Ring is too dangerous, and it exceeds the Continental Will, making it easy to be targeted.

This was not controlled by Li Xuan, but a natural resonance and echo between Bai Chuan's martial soul and the Geng Gold Grass.

"Sword waterfall, this is a great thing—wide‑area attack, and the strikes are continuous. Good soul skill, good soul skill!" Li Xuan nodded at Bai Chuan and said.

However, this technique demands extremely high requirements of the user; not only must one be intimately familiar with the meridians, but also have deep knowledge of bodily structure, and most importantly, possess extremely strong soul power. Coincidentally, Li Xuan meets the requirements.

Just a moment.

A yellow light being identical to Li Xuan appeared before him.

……

Li Xuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration and wanted to test which was stronger, his Killing Domain or the Geng Gold Domain.

Then, Li Xuan, using his soul power to internally view the bones and meridians within his own body, simultaneously simulated them on a Fake Dummy with his soul power. After another ten‑plus minutes, Bai Chuan finally opened his eyes.

"Uncle Bai succeeded!" Li Xuan and Bang Chui exclaimed excitedly together.

Although the soul power was massive, it was unusually gentle and had no effect on Bai Chuan's body.

"Elevating five levels out of thin air—could it affect the foundation?" Li Xuan furrowed his brows and asked Bai Chuan.

"Brother, you are using the highest‑grade Sacrifice method; this kind of Sacrifice will not produce any negative effects for the sacrificer, meaning there are only benefits and no drawbacks," Bang Chui explained.

Then, a flash of white light passed through Bai Chuan's hand, a miniature Tiger Soul Blade the size of a fingertip; with a flick of the wrist, the miniature Tiger Soul Blade turned into a silvery‑white beam and shot straight out.

"As for White Tiger Vajra Break, it's a rather domineering sword technique, not convenient to demonstrate here," Bai Chuan scratched his head, a bit embarrassed, and said to Li Xuan.

Moreover, Li Xuan could feel that within this Domain, metal‑type soul power was more active, and Bai Chuan's speed and strength should also be enhanced.

After hearing Li Xuan's words, Bang Chui hurried obediently to Li Xuan's rear, and Li Xuan instantly activated the Killing Domain, shielding the surrounding sword intent.

"Young master, your Domain is purer than my Geng Gold Domain, even quite terrifying," Bai Chuan came to Li Xuan's side, frowned, and said to Li Xuan.

"As for the right‑arm soul bone, it brings two soul skills: Hundred‑Mile Flying Dagger and White Tiger Celestial Vajra Break," Bai Chuan explained to Li Xuan.

As soon as Li Xuan finished speaking, the aura emanating from Bai Chuan began to rapidly contract and returned to Bai Chuan's body.

"By the way, Bai Shu, eat this; it will stabilize your cultivation faster," Li Xuan took out a ten‑thousand‑year‑old Brahma Sound Glazed Flower from the box and handed it to Bai Chuan.

Every meridian, every muscle, every inch of bone… everything was exactly the same as Li Xuan's.

"What? It grew?" Li Xuan widened his eyes and said in disbelief.

"I see," Li Xuan nodded.

Then Li Xuan felt the energy within the Geng Gold Grass being rapidly channeled through the light array into Bai Chuan's body.

"The matters in the territory should be handled by Zhou Chen and the others, so I don't need to intervene. Next, besides cultivating the Extreme Spirit Ice Core, I also need to finish improving the technique," Li Xuan stroked his chin and muttered.

Li Xuan and Bang Chui hurried forward and arrived at Bai Chuan's side.

Li Xuan went to the Hot Spring, sat on the Lotus Platform, closed his eyes, and let his soul power slowly release, gradually coalescing before him into a pale‑yellow, semi‑transparent light figure about the same height and weight as Li Xuan.

Li Xuan pondered briefly, then decided to use the Sacrifice method described in the Geng Gold Grass inheritance information; after all, turning original broth into original food is ultimately not wrong.

"No big problem, Bai Shu. Since you've already absorbed the soul ring well, we should go out for a drink, let's go," Li Xuan said, then led Bai Chuan and Bang Chui out of the Palm Sky Bottle space, found a secret room, and started drinking.

Bai Chuan flipped like a kite, landed steadily on the ground, and then knelt on one knee without hesitation.

An unrivaled aura of dominance radiated, and at the same time Li Xuan also sensed the Domain's aura.

"Besides bringing the Domain closer, the soul ring also granted another soul skill called Blade Waterfall, which uses soul power and Geng Gold qi to form countless steel blades that fall from the sky, hang inverted in the galaxy, with an enormous attack range. Of course, it also consumes soul power heavily; even at my peak I can only release it once before exhausting, and I expect it will improve after breaking through Title Douluo," Bai Chuan continued speaking to Li Xuan.

"No, young master, I feel my control over the soul power inside my body is much stronger now than before," Bai Chuan said with a smile, shaking his head.

"Haha, this Geng Gold Grass really suits Bai Shu's soul ring!" Li Xuan said, watching the martial soul and light array, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Congratulations! Once Bai Shu's cultivation stabilizes, we'll drink together," Li Xuan patted Bang Chui's shoulder and continued observing Bai Chuan's condition.

"Roar!"

Li Xuan simply nodded.

"It should be the soul bone; otherwise Bai Shu's arm wouldn't recover so easily," Bang Chui, hiding behind Li Xuan, nodded at Li Xuan and said.

Li Xuan, after hearing Bang Chui's words, also silently nodded.

More importantly, the previously missing arm had miraculously restored to its original state, merely a bit pallid.

Gaining the benefits of Sacrifice with a Soul Saint body far outweighs the benefits obtained at the level of a Great Soul Master over twenty levels.

"If I practice directly on my own, it's easy to get injured," Li Xuan frowned at the cultivation manual in his hand and mused.

As Li Xuan stimulated the Geng Gold qi within the Geng Gold Grass, the Geng Gold qi turned into a silvery liquid like mercury, slowly coalescing on the ground into a light array.

While Li Xuan was drinking, Zhou Chen and Tao Lin led people to take away most of the Dragon Tooth Rice, allocating a portion to the people Li Xuan had selected in Ladi Canyon, and using the rest to brew wine.

"Right‑arm soul bone?" Li Xuan suddenly recalled something, widened his eyes and said.

Therefore, Li Xuan prepared to use soul power to mimic corporeal cultivation, thereby ensuring the technique's safety and feasibility.

"By the way, Bai Shu, what are the remaining soul skills you have?" Li Xuan asked Bai Chuan further.

"Thank you, young master!" Bai Chuan said after a thank you, then grabbed the Brahma Sound Glazed Flower and shoved it into his mouth.

Li Xuan also circulated his soul power, and the Killing Domain slowly spread out.

Li Xuan thought of stimulating the Geng Gold Grass bloodline again to obtain information about the Sacrifice ceremony within its bloodline, to verify whether the Sacrifice methods inherited in the bloodlines of the two different soul beasts are the same.

"By the way, Bai Shu, did you acquire a Domain‑type soul skill?" Li Xuan showed a knowing expression to Bai Chuan.

A chilling, terrifying atmosphere instantly filled the external Geng Gold Domain.

"Haha, Bai Shu also obtained a Domain, wonderful!" Li Xuan's eyes brightened, and he exclaimed delightedly to Bang Chui.

"Bai Shu, how much has your cultivation improved?" Li Xuan smiled brightly, then asked Bai Chuan.

"Hmm… basically it's about the same. After the first model is made, as long as there are no issues, it can be mass‑produced," Li Xuan exhaled.

Creating such a Soul Body Fake Dummy does not consume a large amount of soul power, but it must be identical to a human body, so it consumes more spirit.

"It also needs to simulate soul power circulation," Li Xuan stroked his chin, his mind moving, and injected a mixture of Burning Heart Divine Flame and Filthy Flame into the little soul dummy's body, where it ran through the meridians, perfectly simulating soul power circulation.

"Not bad, not bad. In that case, we can start the experiment," Li Xuan nodded satisfactorily.

Li Xuan then began the formal experiment. (End of chapter)
