Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 10 Successfully absorbed
The next second, thousands of flying insects flew out from the sunflowers, and many strange-looking creatures on the ground quickly fled. It was obvious that these were soul beasts that used the sunflowers to practice.

"Those are mutated fire and light dual-attribute slimes and sun scarabs. I just don't know if they'll meet the age limit. Will they wait until I reach the level of Great Soul Master or Soul Venerable..."

When Xu Yang, who was lying on the tree and observing quietly, saw the two kinds of soul beasts mixed in, he stood up straight instantly with his eyes wide open. He didn't expect to see these two kinds of soul beasts here.

Slime, an extremely common elemental spirit, is comparable in quality to the bluesilver grass found in plants. It's mostly water-attributed and quite common. Due to its inherent properties, it's extremely easy to mutate into slimes of other attributes, so this spirit beast possesses a wide variety of attributes.

But even so, the slime's attack method is still very simple and very rubbish.

However, slime has a special characteristic that can be inherited by weapon spirits as a soul skill, and that is its own splitting and fusion characteristics. This characteristic is the foundation of slime's survival. As long as the core is still there, they can recover in a short time.

After absorbing the slime soul ring, weapon spirit and elemental spirit soul masters will 100% gain the soul splitting skill, especially elemental spirit soul masters will 100% inherit this characteristic of slime.

The soul skill is also very simple, which is to split one's own weapon soul into two, two into four, and continue to split. After the split, it can be merged into one again.

The Sun Scarab is much more famous than the Slime. It is a rare high-level insect soul beast and is very good at shaping soul power. Its most famous move is to condense a holy sword on the horns on its head. It can even ignore the defense of罡气 and stab the enemy from the air at lightning speed. Basically, no soul beast or soul master of the same level can dodge it.

This kind of soul beast can give elemental soul masters weapon-related soul skills such as the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, which are generally holy swords.

When Xu Yang read about this soul beast in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, he speculated that Qian Renxue's sacred sword might have been derived from it. In his opinion, the essence of this soul skill should be the concentration and shaping of the soul skill. Because some sun scarabs do not condense the holy sword, but instead condense a suit of armor around their bodies, it can be seen that the use of this soul skill depends mainly on the user.

These were the second and third soul rings he chose for himself after reading the books in the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. He had originally planned to have the sect disciples investigate for the two soul beasts when he was close to breaking through, but he didn't expect to see these two soul beasts just after he had obtained the first soul ring.

Just as Xu Yang was shocked, Ning Haiyan's figure had already reached above the golden-edged sunflower. He grabbed the sunflower branch with his left hand and pulled it out by the roots with force. Then he turned and rushed towards Xu Yang.

Plant-type soul beasts have basically the same characteristics as plants, and their vitality is amazing. Even if their roots are out of the soil, they will not lose their lives in a short period of time. This is why Ning Haiyan is so rough.

After Ning Haiyan left, the sea of ​​sunflowers that had originally closed their buds bloomed again.

"Master, kill it and absorb its spirit ring! I'll be by your side to protect you!"

Ning Haiyan threw the sunflowers of appropriate age in front of Xu Yang and began to give him instructions.

Hearing this, Xu Yang nodded, took out a dagger from his storage ring, and began to chop the roots of the sunflower with force. For plants, roots are the source of life. If the roots are rotten, the plants will die sooner or later. This also applies to plant-type soul beasts, at least it was like this ten thousand years ago.

After chopping the roots into pieces, Xu Yang discovered that the golden-edged sunflower was not dead yet. He couldn't help but sigh at its vitality. He casually cut off its main stem with another stroke, thus ending its life.

Suddenly, a deep yellow soul ring floated out, hovering above Sunflower's corpse. Xu Yang quickly put away his dagger, sat cross-legged on the ground, and calmed his mind. He summoned his martial soul and began to absorb the soul ring according to the method recorded in the meditation method.

As the soul ring was put on the Sun Martial Soul, Xu Yang suddenly felt a huge amount of energy surging into his body. This energy was hot and violent. As soon as it entered his body, it began to run around, trying to destroy his body.

Fortunately, he had swallowed whale glue and had been consciously exercising his body. His physical fitness far exceeded that of soul masters of the same level. After entering into meditation, he used his own soul power and mental power to guide it, so this energy was still within his tolerance range.

In the original novel, Yu Xiaogang was able to research the existence of some meridians. The meditation method of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect has been passed down for thousands of years, so naturally there is also research in this area. Although it may not be as thorough as Chinese traditional medicine and ancient martial arts, the mainstream meridians used for cultivation and application of soul skills are still recorded, which can form the simplest Zhoutian.

Now Xu Yang uses his own soul power to transfer this energy along these meridians, constantly digesting this energy.

He did not want to study the meridians too much. They were the result of nearly ten thousand years of research on the human body in China. He could not figure them all out in just a few years of study. However, he did not need to worry because he had heard a theory that he thought made sense, which was that when water is full, it will overflow.

The Dantian is the dam that stores water, and the meridians are the rivers through which it flows. Once the soul power fills the dam, the excess soul power will naturally flow through these rivers. Once the soul power accumulates within the rivers, it will naturally clear the previously blocked channels, and all the meridians in the body will then be unobstructed. This is the so-called theory of overflowing water.

Therefore, he needs to focus more on the soul power itself and its application, rather than wasting time on the meridians.

Perhaps it was because the Sun Martial Soul and the Sunflower Soul Beast were highly compatible, so even though he had seven hundred years of cultivation, it did not cause much damage to his body. The process was extremely smooth and did not take much time at all.

boom!
With the complete absorption of the soul power, Xu Yang only felt that the soul power in his dantian became more and stronger, from the original trickling stream to a winding river; the solar soul power that was originally converted into only a trace also increased to 10%.

It worked!
Xu Yang was ecstatic!

Not only did he successfully absorb the first soul ring, his own soul power was also approaching the sun martial soul.

Not only that, his body also became stronger and stronger under the tempering of the solar soul power, which is the most yang and strong force, and is comparable to a soul master at the soul master level.

The most important thing is that he instinctively felt that he could draw together the power of the sun within a radius of 100 meters. Although it could not be condensed into shape, it would definitely be able to assist in cultivation. Even the consumption of his first soul skill seemed very small.

When he stood up, he felt full of strength, and killing a cow with one punch was a piece of cake.

However, he also knew that this was an illusion caused by a sudden surge in power, not that he really had such power.
