Chapter 166 - 65

120 Soul Ring Age

The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family really didn't dare to act recklessly. The three of them took a carriage and arrived at Dugu Mansion in Tiandou City smoothly.Dugu Bo had already prepared the supplies. Late that night, the four of them quietly left the mansion and went out of the city, heading on foot. They changed to horse-drawn carriages in towns along the way to continue their journey.

In the carriage, Yang Yunhai touched the bones of the two women to determine their physical strength and confirm the years of soul ring absorption.

Is there a sign? Glancing at Dugu Yan who lowered her head slightly and took back her hand, Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly:

"Xiao Hai, how is it?"

"Zhu Qing is about 3,000 years old, and Sister Yan is less than 10,000 years old, so it shouldn't be a problem." Yang Yunhai replied.

As expected of an immortal product linked to the dragon clan, it also absorbed 30,000-year-old soul bones, which improved the physical body a lot. As for Dugu Yan's current physical strength, he had to admit that it was a bit beyond the standard. It was a pity that his mental strength was not enough.

"Such a long period of time?" Dugu Yan was immediately surprised. She had never expected this result.

"A little bit indeed." Dugu Bo was also surprised, but when he thought about the fact that his granddaughter had taken the Nine Treasures Dragon Ganoderma that could greatly increase the strength of the body, and had absorbed the 30,000-year-old left arm bone, he felt it was reasonable.

He nodded slightly and turned to look at Yang Yunhai.

"Xiao Hai, have you two discussed the choice of Zhu Qing's third spirit ring?"

"Yeah." Yang Yunhai nodded. "Zhu Qing's speed and skills are not bad now, but she lacks strength. This makes her attacks less destructive and unable to fully exert the piercing ability of her martial spirit." Although cat claws are sharp, they still need enough force to ensure that they penetrate, just like the sharpest nails need to be hammered with force to penetrate hardwood.

"So, for the third soul ring, I plan to let Zhu Qing hunt soul beasts that focus on strength but also have speed."

"Strength can sometimes be converted into speed. For example, the speed of the Cruel Claw Beast is not inferior to that of the top-level pure agility-type soul beasts. The reason is the terrifying strength of its limbs. There are also sickle dragons, black-scaled horned wolves, etc. like this."

"That makes sense." Dugu Bo nodded. "The strengths of the soul beasts you mentioned all lie in their forelimb strength and sharp claws, especially the Claw Beast with dragon blood. Its attack method is very compatible with Zhuqing's cat-like martial soul."

"However, these soul beasts are relatively rare." After a moment's hesitation, he continued, "Help Yanzi hunt Medusa first."

"At least I know the approximate location of this soul beast. Let's go straight there first. It would be best if we can find a suitable one for Zhuqing on the way. If we can't find a suitable one, we can change the route and look for it slowly after hunting down Perfect Dusha. This way, we can save time."

"Okay." Yang Yunhai nodded.

The soul beasts hunted by Dugu Yan were quite old, so he must have gone deeper into the forest than Zhu Zhuqing, so it was just right for him to go along the way.

"Then it's settled." Dugu Bo smiled slightly and said, "You guys should practice first, I'll call you when we get there."

"Yes." The three of them nodded in unison and began to sit down and practice.

Two days later, the four arrived at the Sunset Forest and headed deeper into it under the leadership of Dugu Bo.

With a Titled Douluo leading the way and Yang Yunhai's Blue Silver Grass sensing ability assisting in their exploration, the four of them had an unimpeded journey.

During the journey, he encountered many thousand-year-old soul beasts, but unfortunately, he did not find any soul beast suitable for Zhu Zhuqing to hunt. With Dugu Bo as his strong support, Yang Yunhai certainly hoped that this trip would be completely satisfactory.

Therefore, if it is not suitable, just bypass it and move forward.

A few days later, they finally arrived at the Medusa activity area recorded by Dugu Bo, which was a canyon mouth with rugged rocks and caves on the side.

Looking around, many of the rocks I saw had animal features or were the remains of bones, but they were all small in size.

"Medusa has the habit of storing food. After petrifying an enemy, she will not eat it immediately, but will choose to drag it back to the nest first." Dugu Bo explained: "What we are seeing now are weak soul beasts that have been completely turned into stone due to the petrification effect. The stronger ones will gradually return to their original state because of the abundant energy in their bodies to offset the petrification effect, and will not be completely turned into stone."

"Just like my head soul bone skill, if it is used on an ordinary person, the opponent will be permanently turned into stone. But if it is used on a powerful soul master, the petrification effect can only last for a period of time, and the stronger the opponent, the shorter the petrification time."

"I see." Yang Yunhai nodded to show his understanding.

"If I remember correctly, this Medusa here should be more than 9,000 years old. It is the most suitable for geese among all the known ones." Dugu Bo said as he strode forward, "Wait here for a while, I will go and pull it out of the nest."

"Okay." The three nodded and watched Dugu Bo walk into the canyon.

There was no sound of fierce fighting, only a few dull sounds of bodies hitting hard objects. Then Dugu Bo came out dragging a dark purple snake with a triangular head and stone scales all over its back.

I thought it was a human body with a snake tail. Yang Yunhai was greatly disappointed.

With a snap, Medusa's strong body was thrown directly in front of the three people by Dugu Bo.

It was wilting, with bright red blood oozing out of its eyes and mouth, and it was obviously poisoned. It was obvious that Dugu Bo had poisoned it outside the nest, and it had poisoned it inside the cave.

"Yanyan, hurry up. If you wait any longer, you'll be poisoned to death." Dugu Bo urged.

"Okay." Dugu Yan quickly took out a dagger, walked forward, squatted down and stabbed it hard into the eye socket.

The snake's body trembled slightly, and soon there was no sound, and a purple soul ring floated out.

Dugu Yan walked to an open space nearby, sat down, closed his eyes and absorbed the soul ring.

Soon, Duguyan's body began to tremble and twitch continuously, and her brows were furrowed. Fortunately, it only lasted for a short while before returning to normal.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Dugu Bo then secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Xiao Hai, Zhu Qing, you two can go practice on the side."

"Yanzi's condition has stabilized. I'll just watch over him from now on."

"Okay." Yang Yunhai nodded slightly, led Zhu Zhuqing to an open space, spread a carpet, sat down and practiced soul power.

Dugu Bo looked at Yang Yunhai, then at his granddaughter Dugu Yan, his eyes flickering.

He hardly had to guess that Xiao Hai was able to determine the age of his granddaughter's current absorbable spirit rings so clearly because of the opponents he had encountered before, especially those Soul Master opponents he met in the individual competitions in the Grand Soul Fighting Arena.

With a bunch of vines, it is easy to determine the opponent's physical limit. After that, it is not too difficult to summarize and calculate the approximate age of the spirit ring corresponding to the physical strength.

However, the calculation results should only be limited to the physical body, and only applicable to the Soul Sect realm.

Mental shock can only be experienced by ten thousand year soul beasts, and Xiao Hai himself has not absorbed a ten thousand year soul ring. Therefore, he has no reference at all.

In other words, Xiao Hai's research results on the theory of absorbing soul rings of higher levels are currently only applicable to the fourth soul ring.

Therefore, if his granddaughter wants to enjoy the benefits of this theory in the future, she must keep in touch with Yang Yunhai.

And they must always maintain an absolute trust relationship!

He couldn't help but think of the time when his granddaughter hadn't broken up with Yu Tianheng. If he put himself in her shoes, Yang Yunhai would never agree to let his granddaughter train with him, because it would expose her own martial spirit with thunder attribute and could attract thunder for training. He would never take the initiative to propose the theory of leapfrogging soul rings and help determine the age, and also give advice on soul ring matching and martial spirit training direction.

Trouble comes from the mouth. What if her granddaughter leaks the information to her boyfriend Yu Tianheng? The consequences will be absolutely disastrous for Xiao Hai.

Similarly, if his granddaughter falls in love with another man, will Xiao Hai still trust her completely like he does now? Will he still help her with all his strength? The result is obvious, no! Maybe he can keep it before he has children, but once he has children, what mother in the world doesn't want to give the best to her children? I guess by then, including me, he will no longer trust her completely, right?

Maybe we can still maintain a good relationship, but it is impossible to be so open and honest now!

So, there is only one way. His gaze moved to his granddaughter again.

"Well, there are still 4 months until the Chinese New Year, so the time should be about right." While thinking, he walked towards the open space.
