Chapter 68: The Third Soul Ring, Sisters Reconcile
A day passed, and Qi Tian's divided soul left Zhu Zhuqing's body, the two divided souls merging into one.
This time, he clearly felt a surge of soul power appear out of nowhere and flow into his body.
This is the soul power that Zhu Zhuqing absorbed to break through her soul ring. After Qi Tian absorbed it, his soul power also broke through from level 29 to level 30.
"I'm level 30 now, and I haven't hit any bottlenecks!" Qi Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he knew he wouldn't be stuck at level 29.5 like Yu Xiaogang, he was still somewhat worried.
Qi Tian is now facing a dilemma: should he first absorb a soul ring to break through to level 30, or should he continue to refine his skills?
His body is strong enough now, but his soul strength is insufficient, and he probably cannot withstand the soul shock of a ten-thousand-year soul ring.
"I should break through to level 30 first!" Qi Tian thought to himself.
A third spirit ring that is over 10,000 years old cannot be forced, unless a 100,000-year-old spirit beast is willing to sacrifice itself for it.
After making his decision, Qi Tian headed towards the Blue Silver Forest, which was more than ten miles away.
There are many plant-based spirit beasts there, all of which would be suitable as his spirit rings.
"Why are you here again?"
He arrived before the Blue Silver King without any hindrance and awakened the sleeping Blue Silver King from his cultivation.
"Blue Silver King, I'm level 30 now, and I need to absorb a soul ring!" Qi Tian said confidently.
The higher his cultivation level, the greater the chance he will have to help the Blue Silver King bring back the Blue Silver Emperor. The Blue Silver King will definitely help him.
"Alas! Human, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
Blue Silver King sighed; it had never seen such a shameless human soul master.
Human Soul Masters need to kill Soul Beasts to break through their bottlenecks, which is why humans and Soul Beasts are natural enemies.
But Qi Tian came to ask it for a spirit ring. Is that right?
"Blue Silver King, you should be happy that my strength has grown so quickly!"
"The seed of the Blue Silver Emperor is in the hands of a Titled Douluo. If my strength is too low, I simply cannot rescue the Blue Silver Emperor!"
Qi Tian was fearless. Now that he had a divine artifact by his side, he could unleash it with all his might, and even the Blue Silver King would have to be careful.
Moreover, he had the Blue Silver King's Achilles' heel, which was the Blue Silver Emperor.
The Blue Silver King has a very long lifespan, so Qi Tian's growth time is nothing to it.
Therefore, it can wait for Qi Tian to grow up and rescue the Blue Silver Emperor.
In the end, the Blue Silver King compromised.
"Your body should be able to withstand a ten-thousand-year-old spirit ring, but your spiritual strength isn't enough. I'll find you a spirit beast that's nearly ten thousand years old!"
After speaking, the Blue Silver King fell silent as if he had fallen asleep.
However, Qi Tian sensed its blue silver domain, which enveloped the entire blue silver forest, seemingly helping Qi Tian find a suitable soul beast.
After a long silence, the Blue Silver King finally spoke again.
"In the valley west of the forest, there is a nearly ten-thousand-year-old mutated Azure Vine. Go find it!"
"However, it's not very intelligent, but it's extremely aggressive. Whether you can kill it depends on you!"
Qi Tian nodded: "Thank you, Blue Silver King!"
After saying that, he headed west and found the canyon that the Blue Silver King had mentioned.
A vine, called Azure Vine, perched on a huge rock in the canyon, its shape somewhat resembling a coiled dragon.
Its vines resemble a dragon's body, its exposed roots gripping the boulders resemble dragon claws, and its canopy resembles a dragon's head.
Liu Erlong's Fire Dragon Spirit resembles an Yinglong, while this mutated Azure Vine is coiled in the shape of an Azure Dragon.
"The Blue Silver King really knows how to pick soul beasts!" Qi Tian thought to himself.
Qi Tian didn't stand on ceremony and directly released his Blue Silver Domain, spreading out and unleashing the aura of his Blue Silver King Spirit.
At the same time, Qi Tian's second spirit ring flashed, and the Blue Silver Overlord Spear began to charge up.
Although his spirit is not the Blue Silver Emperor, as the king of Blue Silver Grass, it still has a certain suppressive effect on ordinary plant soul beasts.
This Azure Vine has not yet broken through the ten-thousand-year limit, and it will also be suppressed by Qi Tian.
Qi Tian's actions angered the Azure Vine, which released the boulder, its body gleaming with azure light.
The entire vine transformed into a wooden dragon, crashing towards Qi Tian.
Qi Tian's Blue Silver Overlord Spear was fully charged, and with a thrust, he shattered the wooden dragon formed by the Azure Vine.
The vine leaves, resembling dragon whiskers, fell to the ground, but the plant itself was not seriously damaged.
"What a powerful plant spirit beast! It actually withstood my charged attack!" Qi Tian was somewhat surprised.
His second spirit ring was also from a thousand-year-old spirit beast, but he was at a disadvantage in terms of spirit power.
After testing it, Qi Tian saw its core.
Its vitality does not gather at the head of the wooden dragon, but at the root of the azure vine at the tail end.
Having suffered a setback, the Azure Vine gathered the Wood Dragon once more, intending to strike the Heavenly Emperor.
However, Qi Tian directly took out the divine artifact, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, infused it with his soul power, and swiped it towards the place where the life force of the Azure Vine was gathering.
In an instant, the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl emitted five-colored light, obscuring all prying eyes within the canyon.
The Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, carrying immense power, hurtled towards the roots of the Azure Vine pressed beneath the boulder.
With a "poof," the azure vine snapped, breaking the place where it stored its life force.
Taking advantage of its weakness, Qi Tian used the Blue Silver Grass to grab its roots and pulled hard, tearing out its roots and exposing its heartwood.
With his true dragon physique and his original spirit, his power is comparable to that of a thousand-year-old or even ten-thousand-year-old soul beast.
The roots were pulled out, and the Azure Vine was no longer alive. A deep purple soul ring appeared.
Qi Tian retrieved the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl and began absorbing its soul ring.
...
The Zhu family's territory, the home of Zhu Zhuyun.
Since awakening her spirit at the age of six, Zhu Zhuqing has never come to see her older sister, Zhu Zhuyun.
This was the first time she had visited Zhu Zhuyun's residence in more than four years.
As a Soul Elder, Zhu Zhuyun easily sensed the commotion outside the door.
"Oh my, has the sun risen in the west? My dear sister, how could you bear to come see me?" Zhu Zhuyun asked curiously.
Zhu Zhuqing, with a cold face, wanted to retort when she heard Zhu Zhuyun's sarcastic words.
However, remembering Qi Tian's instructions, she forced herself to refrain from hurling insults.
"Sister!" Zhu Zhuqing called out with difficulty.
Zhu Zhuyun's eyes lit up; she felt very comfortable being called "sister" by Zhu Zhuqing.
Her attitude softened considerably: "Don't just stand there, come in and talk!"
"Hmm!" Zhu Zhuqing still had that indifferent and aloof personality, but Zhu Zhuyun could sense the change in her.
"What, have you come to your senses and are you going to admit defeat to your sister?" Zhu Zhuyun asked.
Zhu Zhuqing was about to shake her head in denial and declare war on Zhu Zhuyun, knowing that she would never bow down to Zhu Zhuyun.
But thinking of the possibility Qi Tian mentioned, she held back what she was about to say again.
But she couldn't soften her stance towards Zhu Zhuyun for the time being.
Therefore, Zhu Zhuqing remained silent, neither admitting defeat nor declaring war on Zhu Zhuyun.
All she wanted to do now was complete Qi Tian's mission, and she spent all her time drinking tea.
Zhu Zhuyun raised an eyebrow. Although Zhu Zhuqing didn't treat her the way she used to when she was six, she was still very happy to see her sister's change.
Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was only drinking tea, she felt sorry for her sister. Her fiancé had run away, and she was struggling financially. Could she not even afford flower tea?
