Douluo Continent: I, an evil soul master, work nine-to-five in the Tang Sect.

Chapter 64 Soul Master, Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring!

"Haha, how about that? Speechless with surprise at my strength, aren't you? But don't be discouraged. When I was young, my strength was about the same as yours."

"With your talent, I think it won't be long before you surpass me. But it's only at level ninety-eight. Although it took me half my life to reach this level, it shouldn't be difficult for the two of you, right?"

Seeing that Luo Chen and Tai An had both fallen silent, Xuan Zi's weathered eyes revealed a smile, clearly wanting to tease them.

Although he was very optimistic about their talents, a cultivation level of 98 was not something that could be easily broken through. The bottleneck of becoming a 90-level Title Douluo alone had killed countless people.

Just like Du Weiren next to him, although he has strong talent and is already an eight-ring Soul Douluo level expert at only forty years old, even so, he only has "hope" to break through to the Title Douluo level.

If the bottleneck of becoming a Title Douluo were so easy to break through, there wouldn't be such a huge gap in the number of Soul Douluos and Title Douluos across the entire continent.

It should be noted that the total number of officially recognized Title Douluos across the entire continent is only in the double digits, but the number of Eight-Ring Soul Douluos is a terrifying several hundred!

This result doesn't even include the powerful figures who reside in ancient families or hidden sects; otherwise, the gap would be even greater!

Even a titled Douluo with a cultivation level of 94 and a strength at the mid-level is enough to be a powerful protector of an empire. After all, a titled Douluo who has reached the ninth ring level is now truly an absolute powerhouse on this continent!

However, Luo Chen and Tai An both nodded seriously in response to Xuan Zi's teasing words.

For them, although reaching level 98 Super Douluo sounded quite difficult, it was actually not that difficult. Both of them firmly believed that with their persistence and hard work, they could reach that level.

Especially for Luo Chen, after his Death Scythe Martial Soul truly awakened and he witnessed its true form, his state of mind underwent a great change, no longer confined to this small area.

Although the Tang Sect is his starting point, it will definitely not be his end point. In fact, this plane and this great world will ultimately only be his paradise in the future.

People strive for higher positions, just as water flows downhill. A person's vision often expands as their strength increases. Now that Luo Chen understands his own talent, he naturally won't give up.

"Elder Xuan, I understand what you mean. I want to try absorbing ten thousand years of cultivation for this third soul ring. I would appreciate your assistance!"

After hearing Xuanzi's words, Luo Chen steeled his heart, made up his mind, and spoke to him.

Now that he has such conditions, why be content with the present? Instead of that, he might as well take a gamble. Seven thousand years of cultivation is the most conservative estimate for Luo Chen right now, but that doesn't mean he can only absorb a seven-thousand-year soul ring.

With his Soul King-level physical attributes and mental strength, coupled with his boundless blood and qi power, Luo Chen was confident that he could absorb even a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring!

"Ten thousand years! You, a Soul Master who just broke through to level 30, actually want to absorb a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring?!"

Upon hearing Luo Chen's words, Du Weilun exclaimed in surprise, forgetting all about his demeanor as the dean of students. Compared to his own dignity, Luo Chen's life was the most important thing!

In his opinion, with Luo Chen's current level 30 soul power cultivation, absorbing a seven-thousand-year soul ring was already risky, but the other party still felt it wasn't enough and actually wanted to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring!

Even though he had seen a lot in the academy, he found it extremely absurd. He had seen geniuses who absorbed thousand-year soul rings at the second ring level and monsters who absorbed ten-thousand-year soul rings at the fourth ring level, but none of them had absorbed ten-thousand-year soul rings at the third ring level!

That's tantamount to courting death!

However, Xuanzi remained remarkably calm in the face of Luo Chen's words, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, seemingly approving of Luo Chen's courage to try. Nevertheless, he still asked Luo Chen:

"Are you sure you want to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring? Although I have just checked your condition and you have indeed met the standards for absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, it is not a 100% certainty."

"Once the spirit rings begin to fuse, there is no turning back. You know the consequences of failing to absorb a spirit ring that is too high up. At best, your spirit will be shattered; at worst, you will explode and die. You should think carefully."

"Yes, Elder Xuan, this junior wishes to give it a try. If I can truly absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring at the third-ring Soul Master level, it will undoubtedly bring immense benefits to my future cultivation. Moreover, this is something this junior has carefully considered. A ten-thousand-year soul ring is something this junior is determined to obtain!"

As Luo Chen spoke, he no longer concealed himself. A soul power aura that far surpassed that of a Soul Venerable emerged at this moment, along with the two purple soul rings!

"A purple millennium-old soul ring, and this fluctuation of soul power?!"

Seeing the two purple-tinged thousand-year soul rings rising from Luo Chen's feet, and the soul power fluctuations that were not far from those of a Soul Master, Du Weiren's expression became even more interesting!

He remembered that when Luo Chen was in the Soul Arena, he only had two hundred-year soul rings. But now, he had transformed and both of his yellow hundred-year soul rings had been upgraded to the thousand-year level.

"How...how is this possible?"

This situation is unprecedented, even in the records of Shrek Academy. The improvement in physical fitness, mental strength, and soul power level is not significant, after all, Shrek Academy has never lacked monsters.

But the level of his soul ring can also be upgraded accordingly, which is really too much. He only broke through to the Soul Venerable level, and Luo Chen's own hundred-year soul ring was upgraded to a thousand-year level. If he breaks through to the four-ring Soul Master level, wouldn't it be upgraded to ten thousand years level?

Even Xuanzi was stunned by the illogical scene before him. He now understood why Luo Chen had absorbed a ten-thousand-year soul ring when he was a Soul Venerable. It turned out that his previous two soul rings were already at the thousand-year level!

"What a monster!"

After a moment of stunned silence, Xuanzi couldn't find the words to describe Luo Chen, and could only utter this sentence silently.

He originally thought he had assessed Luo Chen's talent quite highly, but he never expected that he had underestimated him...
