Douluo: I'll take the benefits, you bear the side effects

Chapter 15 The First Soul Ring
He suspected that Louise had given Ning Chuan a drug with significant side effects. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to cultivate so fast, surpassing Xiao Wu and his disciple Tang San, who were both at full soul power.

"I don't know, but I trust Director Louise. And the child's efforts are obvious to all."

Dean Geno had no doubts and thought that it was the result of Ning Chuan's hard work and Louise's special guidance.

Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang not only did not believe it, but became more suspicious, because he was also at the half-level of innate soul power, and knew how difficult it was to cultivate this damn talent and how difficult it was to improve soul power. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a snail's pace.

There is definitely something fishy going on, and the most likely possibility is that Louise gave Ning Chuan drugs.

"He must be using drugs. Sooner or later, he'll be stuck at level 29, unable to advance. Even becoming a Great Spirit Master is a question. He won't be able to go far, and he won't be able to compete with Xiao San at all."

Thinking of the beating Louise gave him and Ning Chuan's talent that was the same as his own, Yu Xiaogang, who felt unbalanced, comforted himself in this way.

That afternoon, Louise took Ningchuan to buy some wilderness survival supplies.

The next morning, the two rented a carriage and set off.

After spending a day and a night, we finally arrived at the Soul Hunting Forest on the morning of the third day.

Plant-type soul beasts are not difficult to find.

Because when they grow to ten thousand years ago, plant-type soul beasts cannot move.

Normally, they are hidden deep in the jungle, no different from ordinary vegetation. If you don't have the ability to sense soul power fluctuations, it is difficult to identify them.

Under the guidance of Louise, Ning Chuan searched along the densely wooded area of ​​the Soul Hunting Forest and finally stopped under a big tree.

"This sacred soul tree is over six hundred years old. Xiaochuan, do you really want to absorb it?"

The two stopped ten feet away from the big tree. Louise looked at the Holy Soul Tree in front of her and couldn't help showing a worried expression.

In the jungle, there stood a sturdy banyan tree that looked no different from any other tree. If it weren't for the strong fluctuations of soul power on its body, Louise would not have been able to identify it.

Normally, if the Soul Power Holy Tree is over ten meters tall, it is a hundred-year-old soul beast. Above ten meters, every meter of growth is a hundred years. This Soul Power Holy Tree is over fifteen meters tall.

In other words, this sacred soul tree is at least six hundred years old.

Ning Chuan said, "Teacher, do you remember what I told you before? The time it takes to absorb a spirit ring is related to the spirit master's physical strength. Over the past year, I have never given up physical training. Furthermore, this Spirit Power Sacred Tree is one of the most gentle spirit beasts. It also has the same wood attribute as my Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, making it a perfect match. There will be no spirit ring rejection. I am confident..."

On the way here, Ning Chuan explained to Louise some of the theoretical knowledge about soul masters that he had learned in his previous life, in order to convince her to let him absorb soul rings beyond the age limit.

There would be no one to help him hunt down older soul beasts and larger enemies to divert the side effects.

That's why he chose this 600-year-old one.

Otherwise, he would have absorbed a spirit ring that was more than ten thousand years old.

However, getting a hundred-year soul ring and two thousand-year soul rings in the early stage are enough for him to use and show off.

At worst, I can find a way to blow up the soul ring in the future and transfer the side effects to the Tang family father and son.

Anyway, it is very simple to destroy a spirit ring, and almost every spirit master can do it. The difficulty lies in that after it is destroyed, it is often impossible to recover, let alone reabsorb it.

Unless there is a secret book of ring explosion like the Haotian Sect, or those shameless pseudo-gods in the God Realm take action.

Ning Chuan possesses a god-level side effect system, so he can change the soul ring whenever he wants. He just needs to choose the candidate carefully.

After all, a side effect can only be borne by one person. "That being said," Louise wanted to say something, but after seeing Ning Chuan's resolute eyes, she finally chose not to dissuade him.

Because Ningchuan's physique is indeed very strong.

Over the past few days, her insights into the soul master theory have completely conquered her.

The most important thing is that in just one school year, that is, nine months, he raised his soul power from level five to level ten, and he was still practicing swordsmanship and studying cultural subjects at the same time. This was already a miracle.

She had no reason to refuse.

Pink light surged in Louise's right hand, and she summoned a dark red rapier and rushed towards the Holy Soul Tree.

A hundred years ago, the Holy Soul Power Tree had no attack power and could only rely on disguising itself as an ordinary tree to avoid being hunted by soul masters.

Once it reaches over a hundred years old, it can extend its branches to bind and restrain its enemies, initially possessing a certain degree of offensive power.

By the millennium, the attack power had increased further.

After ten thousand years, it can move short distances by creeping its roots, and its branches have the ability to regenerate.

Fifty thousand years old, it is no different from those fifty thousand year old animal-type soul beasts, and has a strong group attack ability. Even among fifty thousand year old soul beasts, it is an extremely terrifying existence.

However, there are almost no soul power holy trees that are more than 50,000 years old. At least Ning Chuan has never seen them in the books given by Louise or in the library of Notting College.

The sacred soul tree in front of her was more than six hundred years old. The moment Louise approached, branches as thick as an adult's arms coiled towards her like poisonous snakes, trying to restrain her.

But unfortunately, facing Louise, a high-level Soul Master with agility attack system and sword martial spirit, he was completely useless.

In a short while, the Holy Soul Power Tree was chopped down, leaving only the bare trunk.

"Is it really okay?"

After doing all this, Louise did not put away her martial spirit, but stood aside, looking at Ning Chuan worriedly, her charming face filled with nervousness and uneasiness.

"Teacher, I trust my own judgment. Please protect me."

Walking to the Holy Tree of Soul Power, Ning Chuan summoned the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, gripped the hilt with both hands, and poured all his soul power into it. Suddenly, the small sword, which was originally only the size of a palm, became three feet long, and then he swung it violently.

boom!
Ning Chuan chopped the tree, which was nearly as tall as a man's arms, in half. Faint yellow light gathered above the tree stump, forming a yellow halo.

Ning Chuan sat down cross-legged next to the yellow halo.

He closed his eyes, and with the pull of his soul power, the soul ring was gradually absorbed into his body.

Since the Soul Power Holy Tree is a relatively gentle soul beast, Ning Chuan's own martial soul, the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, has wood attributes and he had practiced it diligently for a year. Furthermore, given the various side effects he had previously inflicted on Tang Hao, the absorption of this over six hundred year old Soul Power Holy Tree spirit ring was relatively smooth, without any discomfort.

At most, during the absorption process, one will continue to feel that one's soul power is approaching saturation.

But that's all.

Whenever his meridians could not bear it, the side effects caused by swelling and pain would be transferred to the old mouse.
