Chapter 229 The Art of Eating Spirits
"So what exactly is this 'Spirit-Eating Technique' you're talking about?"
Wu Heyi stared intently at the young man before him, his tone tinged with urgency. He took a small step forward and pressed for further information.
The young man smiled slightly and replied very gently:
"Well, if you want to figure this out, first of all, you need to activate your own martial spirit or the soul power you possess!"
As he spoke, his gaze swept over Wu Heyi, looking him up and down.
At this moment, Wu Heyi was wearing only very ordinary linen clothes, which looked no different from the surrounding environment.
For this reason, the young man quickly made a judgment—that Wu Heyi's social status should be similar to his own.
Therefore, when faced with Wu Heyi's questioning, he did not show any of that arrogant or unruly attitude.
Upon hearing this, Wu Heyi hesitated for a moment, then raised his head, looked at the young man with firm eyes, and said confidently:
"Oh, I see! But actually, you don't need to help me awaken my martial soul, because I already have one!"
Before he finished speaking, he gently waved his right hand, and a ball of five-colored light suddenly shone brightly. Then, a five-element array plate that shimmered with strange light slowly emerged and stood steadily on his left hand.
This sudden turn of events caused the young man, who had been smiling, to widen his eyes in surprise.
It should be noted that the market here is entirely led and convened by his tribe.
Moreover, these markets are usually held only once every 3 to 5 years.
One of the most important purposes of each market opening is to spread knowledge and skills related to martial spirits and soul power to the public.
However, the seemingly ordinary Wu Heyi in front of him had actually summoned his martial spirit on his own, which was truly beyond the young man's expectations.
Normally, as long as someone steps into his shop and chooses to purchase West Lake Martial Soul, that person will be firmly remembered by him.
However, Wu Heyi, who was standing in front of him at this moment, was clearly not a Soul Master who had awakened through him.
While the young Soul Master was still in a state of shock, Wu Heyi unhesitatingly unleashed his own Soul Ring.
In an instant, the dazzling light seemed to freeze the surrounding air.
Five spirit rings appeared one after another, one of which was a noble and mysterious purple, while the other four emitted a deep black light.
This scene left the young Soul Master on the other side speechless, completely shocked.
In that brief moment, Wu Heyi captured a multitude of complex emotions in the young man's eyes—extreme shock dominated, but a fleeting hint of anger also flashed by.
Wu Heyi was quite surprised by this, and thought to himself:
"I don't seem to have any grudge against this guy."
Why did he show such anger towards me?
Despite his deep doubts, Wu Heyi did not reveal them.
The young soul master did not dwell on the matter excessively. Instead, he quickly adjusted his emotions and then showed Wu Heyi his own soul ring status.
As the first yellow spirit ring slowly rose, Wu Heyi's gaze was already fixed on it.
As the second and third spirit rings appeared one after another, Wu Heyi's heart began to beat faster.
Finally, the last black spirit ring, symbolizing immense power, shone with dazzling light. Wu Heyi could no longer contain his excitement and became thrilled.
That mysterious and profound black soul ring symbolizes the condensation and accumulation of the powerful energy of a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
However, after two long years of searching, he had not even seen a single ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
The young man standing before us at this moment, regardless of how he raised his cultivation to the Soul King realm, undoubtedly possesses a remarkable ten-thousand-year soul ring.
This fact alone is enough to show that this person must know where the traces of the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast exist.
After showing everyone his spirit rings, the young spirit master did not ask Wu Heyi any further questions about the matter of spirit power enlightenment.
He looked focused and said slowly:
The so-called "method of consuming spirits" can be divided into two important parts.
First, to successfully master this method, you must possess a certain degree of precise control over your soul power.
This ability to control one's abilities can be gradually acquired and accumulated through diligent practice in various side professions such as alchemy, weapon crafting, talisman making, and magic array construction.
When you make sufficient progress in these areas and become proficient in controlling your own soul power, you can use this control to shape and create your own 'Soul-Eating Hand'!
After speaking, the young Soul Master once again stretched out his hands towards Wu Heyi. Instantly, a pair of enormous hands formed from powerful soul energy appeared out of thin air, emanating a chilling aura.
Since the core principles of this technique are inscribed on special dominoes, the young soul master does not intend to repeat them here.
He paused for a moment, then continued, "As for the second part of this 'Spirit-Eating Technique,' it is of paramount importance..."
"The so-called 'eating ring' refers to obtaining the massive amount of soul power contained within the soul rings of slain soul beasts."
The Soul Eater, on the other hand, directly captures the opponent's Martial Soul and forcibly devours its Soul Rings, thereby temporarily gaining access to a Soul Skill.
Upon hearing this, Wu Heyi couldn't help but exclaim in shock:
"what?"
You know, when he first witnessed the amazing technique of devouring spirit rings, a thought involuntarily popped into his mind—could this method be applied to actual combat to see if it could really devour other people's spirit rings?
However, this is only a preliminary idea and has not yet been put into practice.
But now, not only have we received a definitive answer, but what's even more unexpected is that the eclipse ring is actually just a relatively simplified effect!
Immediately afterward, Wu Heyi eagerly pressed on with the question:
"So, if I consume the opponent's spirit ring, is it possible for them to return to their original state?"
Faced with Wu Heyi's question, the young Soul Master was once again deeply shocked.
He never expected that the powerful Soul Master in front of him, who possessed four ten-thousand-year Soul Rings, would be so kind-hearted as to care about such a question.
After all, in most people's minds, Soul Masters with such strength and status are often ruthless and only pursue the improvement of their own power.
"This thing can indeed restore health, but if you swallow it, the consequences will be severe!"
The opponent's cultivation level will drop by a full ten levels!
What's worse, for the next year, he had no way to improve his cultivation level.
Only after a year has passed will the damaged spirit ring have a chance to slowly repair itself.
However, even if the spirit rings are repaired by then, he'll still have to start cultivating them back to their original level because of you!
