Douluo: Emerald Poison King

Chapter 11: Sacrifice of Control

"Soul masters should respect death, but they should not be afraid of death."

Chen Ming shook his head, unable to explain any further.

In fact, in the past few years of cultivation, Chen Ming also seemed to feel that he did have some special golden fingers, but this golden finger seemed too abstract, so he still didn't understand what it was, he only knew that it seemed to be a spiritual trait. So he paid special attention to those "spiritualities" over the years.

This Pearly Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower was indeed what he fell in love with at first sight. At that time, the flower was not even a soul beast, but just a plant with soul power fluctuations. It was Chen Ming who used his own blood to water the roots and rhizomes and used his soul power to nourish it bit by bit after practicing, and only then transformed it into a soul beast a few months ago. It is probably only about five hundred years old.

Because of the soul power injected into it and the blood watered it, Chen Ming could feel that this bead plant had already left his mark to some extent. Although he didn't know what effect this mark would have, at least it wouldn't have any negative effects.

Chen Ming believed that he could absorb its soul ring.

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Chen Shijie and Chen Tianyun stopped talking. They just clenched their fists, their bodies trembling slightly. They looked at Chen Ming with pleading eyes, hoping that Chen Ming would change his mind.

Chen Ming did not have any weapon that could deal with the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower. Even after being possessed by his martial spirit, he was unable to cause fatal damage to the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower.

Moreover, all this is based on the assumption that Chen Ming's actions will not trigger a chain counterattack from this Pearl Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower or even other Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flowers in the cave.

The rhizome of the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower is so well developed that even if the leaves on it are destroyed, it is impossible to completely kill it. It is not something that an ordinary soul master can easily deal with.

It was just that Chen Ming closed his eyes at this time and summoned his martial soul. He seemed to feel something. The mental power and soul power in his heart combined at this moment, transmitting some kind of characteristics to the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower.

A force came from the Pearly Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower, reflecting Chen Ming's martial soul and blood. The Pearly Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower bloomed rapidly in just a few breaths, and the originally calm soul power was completely ignited in an instant.

Sacrifice, this special ability that could only be activated by a hundred thousand year soul beast was forcibly activated at this moment in a way that Chen Ming himself did not understand the principle.

The Pearl Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers began to devour their own kind around them. The Pearl Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers that had become soul beasts could still rely on their instincts to barely resist, while the Pearl Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers that had not yet become soul beasts could only obediently transfer all of their accumulated energy to the other party.

If this energy is absorbed as a foundation, then the age of the Pearly Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers can probably exceed a thousand years in a short period of time. However, this power did not remain at all, but was completely burned up in an instant.

The flower bloomed, vitality and soul power surged, and a visible emerald green soul power beam appeared between the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower that was burning to the extreme and Chen Ming as a link.

Just when Chen Shijie and Chen Tianyun were so shocked that they could no longer think, the Pearly Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower finally bloomed to its fullest, producing an illusory eighth petal that shouldn't have existed.

Then, the huge plant turned into ashes in an instant as if its vitality was drained away. The soul power in the flower gathered together and poured into Chen Ming's body. Chen Ming subconsciously sat cross-legged in meditation, and a deep yellow soul ring appeared beside him.

"Sacrifice? Isn't this just..."

Chen Shijie opened his mouth wide and managed to utter a few words. He used all his thinking ability in this life but was unable to continue describing.

Sacrifice is said to be a special ability that only hundred thousand year soul beasts possess, and it will only occur when a hundred thousand year soul beast is willing to give everything it has to someone.

This kind of thing is equivalent to a myth in Douluo Continent, and it occurs much less frequently than the appearance of angels and gods. If it weren't for the fact that the ancestral law of Douluo Continent has always been said to be immutable, sacrifice, which no one has ever seen, would have been deleted from the books as a rumor. But what did they see today?
A hundred-year-old plant-type soul beast was sacrificed to a prospective soul master who had not yet absorbed his first soul ring?
This is no longer something that can be described as "there are some flaws"...

This kind of thing is a hundred, a thousand, or even ten or nine times more outrageous than an angel god descending to bestow a soul ring!

However, at this moment, Chen Ming had no time to care about the two people's thoughts, because at this moment, he had fallen into a deep meditation that was difficult for ordinary soul masters to encounter under the sacrifice of the Pearly Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower.

If Chen Ming was locked before, then the moment this soul ring appeared, Chen Ming could feel that the shackles that were originally bound on him were broken through a layer because of this soul ring.

At this moment, he understood something in his heart.

Soul masters and soul rings are the laws of the Douluo world. Every time a soul master advances, it is equivalent to using the soul ring as a medium to intersect with the laws of the Douluo Continent, completing a transformation.

Martial soul is a manifestation of the essence of the world, a way of the Douluo world, and soul ring is a derivative of this way.

Both of them are flawed, and only by combining them can they achieve perfection and obtain true derivation from the world.

With the soul ring as a medium, Chen Ming's spirit entered a mysterious realm. He could feel that he could take the initiative to obtain something.

As his consciousness grew, one picture after another unfolded before him. Those were the laws hidden within the Green Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers, things engraved on the most essential origin of the Green Phosphorus Seven Absolute Flowers race.

Soul masters with different martial spirits can see different things, and everyone sees different things. But strictly speaking, the only one who can actually see this abstract concept from beginning to end is Chen Ming.

"Poison Arrow...Poison Light...Poison Coil...Poison Shot...Poison Enhancement...Poison Pincers..."

"These... these are not enough. These are just changes in soul power, not the essence..."

Other soul masters can only randomly obtain one soul skill that suits them after absorbing soul rings, but Chen Ming has now opened all the skills of the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower that have the potential to become soul skills. He browsed through them one by one and deleted and modified them to a certain extent to make them more suitable for his own wishes.

Chen Ming only glanced at the soul skills such as entanglement and growth that were not suitable for his own martial soul for a moment or two and then paid no further attention to them. Instead, he focused his attention on more important things.

Soul rings and soul skills are equivalent to spell slots or skill slots. Soul masters can use them, but most people will never understand how they use them in their lifetime, let alone get close to the essence of soul rings.

Some skills, such as Fireball and Fireline, are essentially the same, but most people cannot make any changes. Some soul skills with simple principles can actually be acquired by soul masters through training without wasting a precious soul ring slot.

Chen Ming was exploring the essence of the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower within the flower's soul ring. Finally, one picture after another overlapped in front of him, and a soul skill that theoretically only a soul master with the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower martial spirit could obtain after absorbing the Green Phosphorus Seven Wonders Flower appeared in front of him.

"Poison Cloud Technique..."
