Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Dragon Abyss Sword, has become its scabbard.

Chapter 60 Taking Action

Wei'er looked at Ding Quan with surprise; he had changed his clothes and looked much better.

Ding Quan touched his face. He had noticed it while rinsing earlier: his body had become stronger than before, but his skin had become much smoother and fairer.

I glanced at the blue-eyed sea dragon; it still didn't have a soul bone. Soul bones are truly too rare.

There were still many sea spirit beasts surrounding the iceberg on the sea surface. Indeed, there were far more spirit beasts in the ocean than on the continent.

After a quick cleanup, the group flew towards the mainland.

In the sky, Ding Quan and his group were moving much faster than they had come.

Feeling that his soul power had not been depleted at all, it seemed that the recovery speed of his soul power after using the soul bone skill far exceeded the consumption.

"I'll have to stay away from you when I cultivate from now on." Wei'er used her golden feather to stand next to Ding Quan and felt the surrounding energy of heaven and earth constantly surging towards him. She couldn't compete with him at all.

"indeed."

"My soul power conversion speed is much faster than before." Ding Quan relaxed his mind, and the absorption speed slowed down a bit.

"With such a fast recovery speed, Izumi, you shouldn't have to worry about soul power issues when using your second soul."

Although Ding Quan's second soul skill is not as powerful as his fourth soul skill, its potential is definitely the highest.

As long as one has soul power and a body strong enough to withstand the boost, this soul skill can increase Ding Quan's strength several times over.

Previously, when soul power was exhausted, attributes would increase by about 80% to 90%, and now the increase will be even greater.

"Maintaining this state indefinitely is unrealistic. Over time, the consumption of soul power will become extremely high, and recovery will not be able to keep up."

"The increase will be much higher than before, and there's no need to worry too much about running out of soul power."

"That's true." Ding Quan smiled. With his current soul power recovery speed, he could confidently use his second soul skill.

"There aren't many opponents who can significantly deplete the Spring Soul Power."

"And it seems our strength is much greater than we anticipated!" Vera waved her right hand, and it seemed that the group could face the 30,000-year-old dragon in an instant.

The strength of the dragon, which had been around for over 30,000 years, far surpassed that of an ordinary Soul Saint, even though Ding Quan had some control over it.

The fact that the opponent couldn't unleash their full strength after leaving the seawater also shows that the group is currently very strong.

"Don't get too cocky. We're not that strong right now."

"Know."

For some powerful forces, the strength of a Soul King is dispensable, and although a Soul Saint is also a powerful figure, he is still not enough.

"But Izumi, is it possible for us to achieve this given your condition?"

Ling was held in Ding Quan's arms, and she could feel Ding Quan's frantic speed of absorbing the energy of heaven and earth even more clearly. If he cultivated at this speed, the speed at which his soul power would increase would be unimaginable.

"That's actually quite possible, but it will take some time." Ding Quan nodded upon hearing this. Being able to absorb the energy of heaven and earth for cultivation and recovery, Ding Quan thought of the key to breaking through to the Title Douluo level ten thousand years later: the Soul Core.

As times progressed, the cultivation system became more complete ten thousand years later, giving rise to a cultivation method called Soul Core, which can increase the recovery speed of Title Douluos and also help them cultivate.

This also resulted in a significantly larger number of Title Douluos ten thousand years later than they are now, and the emergence of several Limit Douluos who reached level ninety-nine without undergoing divine trials.

And in this era, there is only one Tang Chen.

Although the strength of a Title Douluo does not increase much after possessing a Soul Core, their Soul Power recovery is extremely strong, allowing them to release Soul Skills more easily.

More importantly, it aids in cultivation. Having a soul core is equivalent to cultivating at all times, accelerating the cultivation speed of a soul master and making it easier to break through bottlenecks.

After becoming a Title Douluo, the time required to advance to the next level is several times longer than before. Without the assistance of a Soul Core, the increase in Soul Power is too slow.

Ding Quan assessed his current physical condition and realized that his state was similar to that of a soul core.

He had originally planned to condense a soul core, and now it seems that he can do so much earlier.

"Really?" Wei'er's eyes lit up. If there was such a recovery speed, wouldn't it be possible to release soul skills at will, and her strength would definitely increase a lot?

Her skills consume a great deal of soul power. Once her fifth soul skill is released, her soul power begins to be consumed rapidly, and she can't use other skills many times.

"However, you must raise your mental strength to the level of a Title Douluo first," Ding Quan said to Wei'er beside him. Even ten thousand years later, normally it is only Title Douluos who begin to condense their soul cores, which means that only Title Douluo-level mental strength can achieve this.

"The mental power of a Title Douluo?!" Wei'er looked at Ding Quan with some doubt. Even if Ding Quan was strong now, his mental power could not possibly reach the level of a Title Douluo.

"This is a special case for me, it's related to the spirit ring I absorbed."

"Is that so?"

"The method I mentioned does exist, but we can't do it right now, and I don't know how to do it either."

Ding Quan only knew about the Soul Core, but he didn't know how to condense it.

Although I know a little about the theory of soul cores, I think it is very different from reality, so I need someone to help me experiment with it, and this person has probably already started researching it.

"Not now? That means you'll be able to do it in the future."

"Once I'm stronger, I should be able to do it. I already have an idea." Once my strength increases, I can start researching it. I have the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone, so I don't have to be afraid of getting injured. I can try to get it out.

Moreover, my current state is very similar to the effect of the Soul Core, so I might be able to learn from it.

"Around when?"

"At least a Soul Saint."

Ding Quan thought for a moment and said that although his physical strength and mental power were good, they were far from enough.

The Soul Saint is a watershed moment for Soul Masters. We'll see when our strength reaches that level. If we're confident, we can give it a try.

Ten thousand years later, Huo Gua condensed his soul core at the Soul Saint level.

Ding Quan also knew that his conditions were very different from Huo Gua's, and the probability of success was very small.

"And what about us?"

"I'm not sure either, since I'm not sure either, but the mental strength of a Title Douluo is a basic requirement."

"Then I don't know when that will be."

"Then we need to strengthen our mental power first, so that we can start cultivating directly."

"I will train my mental strength."

Although condensing a soul core requires other conditions besides mental strength, Ding Quan thought that these should not be a problem given the current strength of their soul power and physical strength.

It seems that there was a titled Douluo in this era who had the prototype of a soul core, and that was Dugu Bo. If nothing unexpected happens, he is also researching his poison pill, after all, that is the way for him to completely solve the poison of his martial soul, although many things in the letter that Ding Quan gave him were just speculation.

His poison pill was unique on the continent, and he said that it was formed when he became a Title Douluo, which was indeed somewhat similar to a soul core.

I wonder how Dugu Bo's research is going. Should I go and find out? If he has really made progress, it will be helpful for me to refer to it.

It would be difficult for me to study this from beginning to end on my own; it would be best to have a strong mentor to guide me.

However, no Soul Master in this era possesses this item.

Furthermore, Ding Quan shook his head, realizing that finding soul beasts was even more unrealistic; those guys were probably hiding somewhere in this era.

All we know is that they suddenly appeared after ten thousand years; there is absolutely no information about them in this era.

After a while, seeing the frozen forest appear in the distance, the group showed a hint of joy.

Drifting on the ice floes of the ocean, there's never a sense of security or groundedness.

Woohoo!

A clear and high-pitched bird song came from afar.

"Is it another Soul Master hunting souls?"

Ding Quan and his companions, who were rapidly flying over the frozen forest and heading towards the interior of the continent, looked in the direction from which the sound came.

Although this place is close to the North Sea and located at the border between the Frozen Forest and the North Sea, it can also be said to be the central area of ​​the Frozen Forest, where there are still many soul beasts over ten thousand years old.

"They are very strong." Vera looked at the snow and ice swirling in the distance. She could see it from a great distance, and judging from the scale of the fight, they had been fighting for some time.

"Judging from this commotion, is a Soul Saint hunting souls?" Ding Quan looked into the distance with some surprise.

The commotion in the distance was similar to the one the group of Haote had encountered some time ago, who had been chasing a 30,000-year-old icefield bear.

Another Soul Saint. Soul Saints, whom I used to rarely see, I now encounter frequently in this Soul Hunting Forest.

Owl!

The latest novel is first published here!

A clear, phoenix-like cry rang out once more.

"Quan! That's a Water-Condensing Flying Kite!" Ling looked at a beautiful, ice-blue bird flying up in the distance. Although it was far away, he could see that it seemed to have several rings of patterns on its body.

Those are spirit rings!

Ding Quan, who was flying, paused, his golden-red eyes gazing into the distance.

After a brief ascent, the bird quickly flew back down to the ground, but it caused an even bigger commotion.

"It is indeed the Water Condensation Flying Kite, and this is the true form of a martial soul." Ding Quan nodded. The Water Condensation Flying Kite is a high-level martial soul, and Ding Quan recognized it.

"Martial Soul True Form? Is it the Dean of Tianshui Academy?" Upon hearing this, Wei'er glanced at Ding Quan, then looked at the Water Condensation Flying Kite in the air.

The dean of Tianshui Academy has a martial soul called Condensed Water Flying Kite. According to Shui Bing'er, her martial soul, Ice Phoenix, evolved from Condensed Water Flying Kite.

"It should be her, but it looks like she's in trouble. Shall we go check on her?" Ling asked, looking at Ding Quan's uncertain gaze. A Soul Saint releasing their Martial Soul True Body, coupled with a long battle, would surely lead to a stalemate.

"Then let's go take a look."

Ding Quan put aside his thoughts, knowing that he and Ling had received some help from her in obtaining their fifth soul rings.

Although everyone had their own motives, I did receive help.

In addition, he had met her in Beibingcheng before, and she brought her students to the Frozen Forest to hunt souls.

Although it's unclear why they ended up in the Frozen Forest near the North Sea, the fact that they've released their Martial Soul True Form and are still engaged in fierce combat suggests they've encountered a powerful Soul Beast.

And it seems she didn't leave; is she protecting the students? But she probably wouldn't be here hunting souls with the students.

Ding Quan and the others quickly flew in that direction.

"It really is her!" A few minutes later, the group arrived at a short distance away under the cover of Ling's second soul skill. Wei'er saw the two teachers from Tianshui Academy whom she had met in Beibing City before.

Seeing the situation before him, Ding Quan finally put aside his previous doubts; they wouldn't bring students here to hunt souls.

Instead, it was the academy's teachers who hunted souls.

A teacher from Tianshui Academy had a snow wolf about two meters tall beside her, but it was already dead. Five spirit rings appeared on the teacher's body: two yellow, two purple, and one black. A black spirit ring was being put onto her Snow Fox Martial Soul.

It seems that this person's martial soul is the Snow Fox's teacher, who broke through to the Soul Emperor realm, and that's why he came here to obtain a soul ring.

But this also caused trouble.

Wolves naturally travel in packs and are very vengeful. It seems that they took revenge after seeing someone hunt down their pack of wolves and absorb their spirit rings.

A giant wolf that is nearly 30,000 years old is fighting the dean of Tianshui Academy. Although the dean of Tianshui Academy is a Soul Saint and his Water Condensation Flying Kite Martial Soul is stronger than this snow wolf, he can suppress the opponent but find it difficult to injure him.

More importantly, this was a wolf pack, and several snow wolves nearby were also helping the wolf king.

On the other side, several snow wolves over ten thousand years old were staring fiercely at the Soul Emperor who was absorbing the Soul Ring, and the Dean of Tianshui Academy had to keep on guard.

As for the other teacher, she was only a Soul King. Judging from her appearance, she could only hold her own against the Soul Saint who had released his Martial Soul True Form. She was already panting heavily.

Ding Quan glanced at the quasi-Soul Emperor who was absorbing the Soul Ring. He was clearly disturbed, and his aura was already disordered. If he was disturbed again, it would be dangerous.

If the absorption of a spirit ring is interrupted, the consequences can range from severe injury to death.

"spring?"

"Make your move! But we should walk over there." Seeing Wei'er's gaze, Ding Quan nodded.

The fact that they possessed soul bones must not be revealed, otherwise it would cause trouble, even if the other party was the dean of Tianshui Academy.

"clear!"

The group quickly ran in that direction. They couldn't handle wolves that were over 30,000 years old, but they could manage to deal with several that were over 10,000 years old.

A snow wolf inhaled another wave of cold air and attacked the Soul Emperor who was absorbing the Soul Ring.

A green arm covered in soul power reached out to block the cold air, but a layer of ice instantly condensed on the arm.

A surge of soul power erupted, and the ice slowly dissipated. He felt his physical strength was severely depleted, and his soul power was also running low. If he didn't absorb it quickly, he really wouldn't be able to hold on any longer.

However, it's unclear how long it will take before the absorption is complete.

The snow wolves beside him unleashed their chilling aura once more and attacked him again.

It's unstoppable!

She turned her gaze to Ning Shui Fei Yuan, who was being entangled by the Snow Wolf King and several ancient snow wolves.

The Falcon Crocodile Soul King immediately activated his soul power, a purple soul ring lit up on his body, and a layer of ice armor appeared on his body, intending to use his body to withstand the attack.

Uh~!

A chill froze her body, slowing her movements.

A cold current surged forth, turning the snow on the ground into ice crystals that flowed towards the snow fox soul master who was absorbing the soul ring.

"No!"

"Damn it! It's too late!" Seeing this, Ning Shui Fei Yuan let out an angry female voice, and her whole body burst out with soul power, forcing the Snow Wolf King back.

The Water-Freezing Kite is inherently poor at defense, and it will inevitably fall if defended for too long.

"Damn it!"

Just as Ning Shui Fei Yuan was preparing to make a rescue, an even stronger chill swept in from afar!

"Senior! Long time no see." Ling landed directly on the snow with the Snow Lotus Martial Soul on his head.

With a raise of his hands, the burst of soul power instantly created a massive ice wall beside the Snow Fox Soul Emperor.

"It's you! But...!"
