Chapter 12 - Thousand-Year Soul Ring

Because everyone's goal was only a thousand-year soul beast to serve as the first soul ring, they did not take a long journey to the largest Star Dou Great Forest, but instead came to the Sunset Forest not far from Heaven Dou City.

"Rongrong, Daddy will test you. For Soul Masters who possess the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, what are the choices for soul rings and soul skills?"

"Soul Masters who possess the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, their first soul skill is usually strength amplification, and the second soul skill is speed amplification. Usually the choice for the third and fourth soul skills will also be amplification of soul power and defense. The first four are all basic attribute amplifications, and are also the usual choice of most Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Masters. Even support-type Soul Masters of other Martial Souls will have such choices." After all, she had gained one more studious and competitive big sister. Although Ning Rongrong was still young, she had also learned a lot of Martial Soul theory from Qian Renyue, especially knowledge regarding her own Martial Soul.

"Not bad. It seems our little princess has studied well during this time. A thumbs-up for you!"

"Of course, all thanks to Sister Yue's good teaching!" Ning Rongrong happily grabbed Qian Renyue's arm and acted spoiled.

Arriving at an open space, Ning Fengzhi ordered the two Soul King-level subordinates he brought to stand guard and protect the two little princesses. Then he said to the Sword Douluo beside him:

"Uncle Sword, it's getting late. I'll trouble you."

"Alright. Fengzhi, you all wait here. I'll be back soon."

After speaking, Chen Xin swept up a gust of wind and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Qian Renyue looked at the soul beasts passing by. Perhaps because they were too low in age, some soul beasts were not afraid of these humans, but instead looked curiously at them. It made her involuntarily think of the little unicorn cub in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Thinking of the unicorn who sacrificed for her, and the first being she treated when she first used her Martial Soul, Qian Renyue couldn't help but murmur, "I wonder how that little guy is doing now."

Ning Rongrong, who was constantly paying attention to her big sister, instantly exploded, "Hmph! Bad woman! Tell the truth — do you have someone else out there?! To dare think of someone else right in front of me! Rongrong is angry!"

Qian Renyue was startled by Ning Rongrong's sudden outburst, froze for a moment, then helplessly laughed: "Haha, Rongrong is jealous? No, I was thinking about when Grandpa took me to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt my first soul ring and the little fellow we met then."

"Speaking of which, we only know Yue girl had a fortunate encounter when acquiring her first soul ring, but we don't know the details. Why not take this opportunity to tell us?" Ning Fengzhi was clearly also very curious about Qian Renyue's past experience.

"At that time, I went with Grandpa to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt a soul ring. I didn't have any big ideas, just planned to hunt a suitable hundred-year soul ring."

"But we didn't expect to encounter a Holy Light Unicorn being chased by a Man-Faced Demon Spider. The baby unicorn was at death's door. At that time, its mother rushed over to save it, but she couldn't heal her child's injuries."

"And then? Did the little unicorn die?"

Qian Renyue patted Ning Rongrong's head and continued, "Grandpa and I couldn't bear to watch, so we prepared to leave. The unicorn mother who arrived begged me to save her child. In order to give me the ability to heal her kid, she ultimately chose to sacrifice herself to me. That is why I could obtain a ten-thousand-year first ring."

"All karmic fate has its cause and effect. Yue'er, this is your blessing." Even someone as knowledgeable as Ning Fengzhi couldn't help feeling envy hearing Qian Renyue's experience.

"What about later? Was the little unicorn healed by Sister?"

"Yes, healed. That was the first time I used my soul skill to heal. Being able to use my Martial Soul and my soul skill to save them, I was really happy."

"After the little unicorn recovered, it brought me and Grandpa to the place they lived. The little unicorn's father was also a powerful soul beast. To thank me for saving their child, he took me to a magical and beautiful place. There was a ten-thousand-year Falling Moon Golden Butterfly Lily there — that is the origin of my ten-thousand-year second ring."

"Wow, Sister's experience is really amazing!"

"The Douluo Continent is vast, and there are many wonderful places. If you want a more brilliant life, then work hard to become strong and experience more possibilities. Alright, Rongrong, come prepare to absorb your first soul ring." Qian Renyue's story ended just as Sword Douluo Chen Xin returned with a suitable thousand-year soul beast for Ning Rongrong.

Qian Renyue handed Ning Rongrong the sword that Chen Xin had given her for practice, cheering her on: "This is exactly a thousand-year Lightning Rabbit. It doesn't have much attack power, its spiritual power is also not strong. To survive this long in the soul beast forest, it's likely relying on its extremely fast speed. Its danger level is much lower than strength-type soul beasts, so the chance of success will be higher. Rongrong, don't be afraid. Use Sister's sword to stab it, then sit and absorb the soul ring. Leave the rest to Sister."

"Sister Yue, I'm not afraid. Rongrong will definitely succeed."

Finishing her words, Ning Rongrong used Qian Renyue's sword to stab the dying Lightning Rabbit. Immediately, a purple soul ring rose from the Lightning Rabbit's body. Seeing this, Ning Rongrong quickly gave the sword back to Qian Renyue and sat cross-legged to begin absorbing it. The swords Qian Renyue used at each stage of her training were all forged by Chen Xin at great cost with rare metals, so after killing the Lightning Rabbit there wasn't a trace of blood on the blade.

Seeing this, Qian Renyue didn't hesitate, sat down facing Ning Rongrong, and released her Martial Soul.

With months of cultivation and training, she could now put away her wings when releasing her Martial Soul, otherwise that would be too conspicuous. When necessary she could release her wings to fly, producing unexpected effects in battle.

At first, the soul ring absorption was very smooth. But after about one incense stick of time, Ning Rongrong's expression gradually became ugly.

Her face turned bluish-purple, her originally fair skin gradually reddened like a boiled shrimp. Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin clenched their fists, inwardly extremely nervous.

They began questioning themselves whether they had been too impulsive. Rongrong was their treasure. Even if she weren't an innate full-soul-power genius — even if she were a mediocre person — so what? They could still take care of her. Why take such a huge risk? If it were really that easy, the entire continent wouldn't be without over-age soul rings.

Seeing blood beginning to ooze from Ning Rongrong's lips, and her blood vessels showing signs of rupturing, Qian Renyue hurriedly released her Martial Soul: "Second soul skill — Angel Halo."

A golden halo enveloped Ning Rongrong. Her frightening expression gradually returned to normal. Qian Renyue let out a breath and gently held Ning Rongrong's hand, beginning to circulate her soul power.

Ning Rongrong's seven-colored soul power and Qian Renyue's platinum soul power began to merge together. The excess power generated by absorbing the over-age soul ring was gradually digested within the fusion of the two.

Qian Renyue found the merging of their soul powers so natural, with no rejection at all, and felt joy in her heart. She guided the excess soul ring energy through Ning Rongrong's meridians, repairing her earlier injuries and strengthening the inherently weak constitution of a support-type.

In the blink of an eye, half a day passed. The sky that was bright earlier was now filled with stars. Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin watched as Ning Rongrong's soul power gradually calmed and her complexion returned to normal due to Qian Renyue's intervention, and they finally relaxed.

Gradually, the two awoke. Unlike Qian Renyue who was weak from excessive soul power consumption, Ning Rongrong was radiant. She threw herself into Qian Renyue's arms, happily and gratefully whispering: "Sister Yue, thank you."

"You already called me Sister — why are you saying such silly things now?"
