Chapter 173 The Seventh Soul Ring
After resting for about half an hour, the four of them were all done. Next, they had to absorb the spirit rings, otherwise, if too much time passed, the spirit rings would dissipate and be wasted.
After consuming the herbs, the four of them had mostly recovered their soul power, especially Yang Podi, whose overall soul power was relatively low, and he was expected to recover about 70%.
Dugu Bo set up a poison array around the Titan Python to prevent it from being disturbed by other people or soul beasts while absorbing soul rings, while his father Yang Zhentian and second grandfather Yang Wushuang began to patrol the surroundings to prevent any accidents from happening.
Yang Podi straightened his spirits, sat down next to the Titan Python, and prepared to absorb the 100,000-year soul ring, which was also Yang Podi's first 100,000-year soul ring.
It has to be said that a 100,000-year spirit ring is indeed much more powerful than a 10,000-year spirit ring. Even the previous methods of absorbing spirit rings from higher levels are far less painful than the process of absorbing this 100,000-year spirit ring.
During the absorption process, countless soul energies flew into the body, making the person feel as if they were in magma, with endless tearing forces, as if they were going to tear the person's entire body apart. Especially in the mind, it was as if a giant python appeared, almost occupying the entire mind, as if it was going to swallow the entire silver giant along with its gun.
From the three outside, Yang Podi appeared to be in great pain, with blood trickling from his mouth, eyes, and nose. His face was extremely ferocious, and the three of them looked worried.
Just as Yang Podi was about to collapse, he seemed to think of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood in the City of Slaughter, and the endless killing intent of the Road to Hell. Then, Yang Podi gritted his teeth so hard that he seemed to have broken his gums, and his eyes even showed endless ferocity.
At this moment, his entire body turned silver, and the Soul-Breaking Spear and his body flashed with white light. Even his tightly closed eyes could not block the red light shooting out from them, and the white light seemed to permeate the space around Yang Podi's body.
At this moment, the entire space in his mind seemed to turn blood red. A huge, blood-red Soul-Shattering Spear pierced directly into the Titan Serpent in his mind. The Titan Serpent seemed unwilling to be restrained and let out a series of fierce roars, as if it was fighting with all its might.
As time slowly passed, the blood-red Soul-Shattering Spear gradually gained the upper hand. Even though the Titan Serpent was unwilling, it was slowly pierced and torn apart by the Soul-Shattering Spear, and everything seemed to slowly begin to calm down.
After an unknown amount of time, Yang Podi's soul power gradually stabilized, and his expression slowly calmed down. Yang Zhentian and the other two finally breathed a sigh of relief. Judging from the situation, they had successfully absorbed the 100,000-year soul ring.
When Yang Podi opened his eyes, he felt more comfortable than ever before, and his soul power was extremely solid, as if a huge shackle had been removed.
Yang Bodi looked around and couldn't help but say, "Dad, I did it."
Yang Zhentian, the father, was also overjoyed: "Po Di, you did a great job. From now on, you will be the first person in history to have a seventh soul ring that lasts for 100,000 years."
It has been confirmed that Yang Podi absorbed the spirit ring for a full forty-eight hours, which is two whole days.
"How's the 'Breakthrough' spirit ring? What skills does it have?"
Yang Podi thought for a moment before speaking: "The seventh soul skill is the True Form of the Weapon Soul. When used, its attack power increases by 500%, making it indestructible."
"Moreover, after absorbing the seventh spirit ring, my physical attributes have been greatly improved. It is estimated that my strength has at least doubled, and the Soul-Breaking Spear now weighs eight thousand jin. My spirit power has now reached level seventy-three."
Dugu Bo, standing to the side, couldn't help but shake his head: "You're a real little monster. After you get your seventh spirit ring, if you use your Martial Soul True Body, you might be able to fight against a Title Douluo. With those amplification skills you had before, you might even have a chance to win."
Yang Podi shook his head: "I can indeed fight against a Title Douluo, but my soul power level is much lower than that of a Title Douluo, and my soul power is far less profound. Unless I win quickly, I will still lose in a long battle."
Dugu Bo couldn't help but retort, "You already have such exaggerated strength, and you're still not satisfied? Even if you can't win, you can still escape quickly with your wings. Have you ever seen anyone under twenty years old with this kind of strength?"
The group couldn't help but chuckle upon hearing this.
At this moment, Yang Zhentian took out a blood-red soul bone and handed it to Yang Podi: "Podi, this Titan Python dropped a right arm soul bone. You should absorb it now. It's a top-grade soul bone from 100,000 years ago, and it's a strength-type soul bone, which is perfect for you."
After thinking for a moment, Yang Podi decided to put the right arm soul bone away first: "Dad, let's talk about the soul bone when we get home. Let's go to the next place."
Dugu Bo was a little confused: "Where else do we have to go? Didn't you already absorb a 100,000-year soul ring?"
"And what happened to your body just now? When you absorbed the spirit ring, your body turned silver?"
Yang Podi and Yang Zhentian exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile, leaving Dugu Bo and Yang Wushuang completely bewildered.
Finally, Yang Podi spoke up: "Second Grandfather, Grandfather Dugu, I'm really sorry, I've been keeping it from you all this time. Actually, I have twin martial souls, and my other martial soul is my body."
After Yang Podi finished speaking, his soul power flickered, and his entire body turned silver from top to bottom, like a metal man, appearing exceptionally explosive and also exceptionally strong in defense.
Upon seeing this, Yang Wushuang, the second grandfather, and Dugu Bo quickly approached Yang Podi, looking him up and down with utter astonishment and curiosity.
Finally, Dugu Bo spoke up: "Brother Wushuang, have you ever seen a martial soul that is the entire body? And it's silver at that."
Grandfather Yang Wushuang was also speechless for a moment: "I've only ever seen a martial spirit that's a part of the body, never one like this, but judging from its appearance, it definitely is a martial spirit. But even if a martial spirit is a part of the body, how could it turn silver?"
After observing for a while, the two whispered among themselves. Dugu Bo seemed somewhat speechless: "Brother Wushuang, your grandson has kept this a secret for too long! He hasn't let anyone know that he has twin martial souls, and such a rare physical martial soul at that?"
Yang Wushuang was speechless for a moment: "Brother Dugu, this is the first time I've heard of this. I've never heard Podi mention it before, and I guess even my elder brother doesn't know."
After studying the matter for quite some time, Dugu Bo finally spoke up: "You little monster, you really are a monster. But even if you have twin martial souls, it's best not to acquire a second spirit ring for your second martial soul right now. Cultivating two martial souls at the same time can easily cause the body to explode. Moreover, from beginning to end, only Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall has successfully cultivated twin martial souls."
Yang Podi shook his head: "Since my second spirit is my original body, there will be no repulsion between the two spirits. Moreover, the acquisition of spirit rings for my second spirit was planned in advance, so there shouldn't be any problems."
Dugu Bo suddenly felt a little scared: "You kid, you're not thinking of getting a second 100,000-year soul ring, are you? I don't know where there are 100,000-year soul beasts, and we can't beat the Titan Giant Ape and the Titan Giant Python in the Star Dou Great Forest unless we call your grandfather, maternal grandfather, and your mother."
Yang Podi shook his head: "This time it's not a 100,000-year-old soul beast, and this soul beast is relatively easy to deal with, it's just a little troublesome."
Dugu Bo suddenly became curious: "Given your personality, how could you possibly set your sights on a soul beast that isn't at the 100,000-year level, and even risk using your second martial soul to obtain a soul ring ahead of time? Is this soul beast something extraordinary?"
Yang Podi smiled and said, "This soul beast is indeed quite interesting. It is located in a special forest 800 kilometers west of Soto City. The forest is full of Blue Silver Grass, and there is one Blue Silver Grass that has reached 85,000 years old. This is my target."
Over the years, Yang Podi has studied the map of Douluo Continent and has basically determined the location of the Blue Silver Forest.
Yang Wushuang, standing to the side, was also puzzled: "Po Di, why would you want a plant-type soul beast? You don't have a plant-type martial soul, do you? Besides, isn't the Blue Silver Grass soul beast a bit too weak? Blue Silver Grass is a well-known useless soul beast and a famously useless martial soul. You don't need to be in such a hurry. We should be able to find a better soul beast in the future."
Yang Podi then asked in return, "Second Grandfather, what do you think is the most distinctive characteristic of the Blue Silver Grass Soul Beast?"
Yang Wushuang thought for a moment before speaking: "Blue Silver Grass has always been known for its tenacious vitality, as well as its rapid growth ability and even its good healing ability."
Yang Podi then smiled and said, "The most powerful thing about Blue Silver Grass is its terrifying vitality. If I have an 85,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass spirit ring, my body's vitality will be greatly enhanced, and even my healing and recovery abilities will be greatly enhanced. At that time, my body and martial spirit will be even stronger."
"Especially with the body as the martial soul, the biggest advantage is the body's compatibility. No matter what kind of soul beast or soul ring it is, I will not experience any rejection when absorbing it. Even if I absorb the Blue Silver Grass soul ring, it will not have any impact when I absorb other types of soul rings in the future."
"And most importantly, even in the entire Star Dou Great Forest, there are probably no soul beasts whose life force surpasses that of this 85,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass."
Yang Podi thought to himself: Normal soul beasts need 100,000 years to be able to speak, but this Blue Silver King has only been around for 85,000 years and can already speak and communicate normally. Moreover, it has extremely high intelligence, so it is obviously not simple.
After some discussion, the group decided to go to the Blue Silver Forest to hunt for spirit rings, especially Dugu Bo, who seemed to want to see the rare Blue Silver Grass high-level spirit beast.
