Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

"Ah Yang, in my opinion, there are only a few types of soul beasts that are most suitable for your Silver Dragon Martial Soul."

"One type can improve your elemental level, such as certain soul beasts with extreme attributes, like the Ice Jade Scorpion of the far north."

"There is another type, which is the Soul Beast that can enhance your mental strength level, like the Evil Eye, a specialty of our Sun Moon Empire. The Soul Rings they provide are mostly related to mental attributes."

"With higher mental strength, your control over the elements will also be higher."

"Of course, it would be even better if there were suitable true dragon-type soul beasts, like the legendary Di Tian, ​​which ranks first among the ten most ferocious beasts. Its extremely high dragon bloodline and ultimate dark attributes make it highly compatible with you..."

"The rest are some special soul beasts, such as those with the moon attribute. After all, it is said that the silver dragon was born from the power of the moon bathed by the Dragon God. Moreover, I discovered when you first awakened that your soul power is also very compatible with the moon attribute."

"It's a pity that I'm the only known Silver Moon Martial Soul Master left. If you could find a girl of suitable age and cultivate a relationship with her, maybe you could even create a Martial Soul Fusion Technique or something..."

Seeing that Kong Deming's topic was getting increasingly off-topic, Xu Yang immediately interrupted him and asked curiously:

"Grandpa, after all this talk, what kind of spirit beast are you planning to take me to hunt?"

Kong Deming, realizing he had gone off-topic, awkwardly said:

"Before you were ready to awaken your martial soul, your grandfather sent people to look for suitable soul beasts for you."

"I originally thought you would awaken the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon or the Silver Moon Martial Soul, so the soul beasts I searched for were all suitable for these two martial souls."

"We have now found a Purple Abyss Dragon, a rare soul beast that has a blood relationship with the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon, and its age is just right, around four hundred years old."

"There is also a mutated silver wolf that, in addition to its innate control over the six elements, possesses extremely strong control over the power of the moon. Perhaps this form is the true Silver Moon Wolf King."

"However, its age is a bit too high, around eight hundred years. It should be just right for your second soul ring."

"There are some other spirit beasts that don't have these two Silver Dragon Martial Souls that are suitable for your current situation, so I won't introduce them further."

After listening to Kong Deming's introduction, Xu Yang had already made up his mind.

"Grandpa, how about that silver wolf? Compared to the Purple Abyss Dragon, which only controls the power of destruction, I'm more interested in the silver wolf."

"Furthermore, I am confident that although that silver wolf has a cultivation of eight hundred years, I think my physical condition should be able to withstand it."

"I know you asked me to choose the Purple Abyss Dragon mainly for safety reasons."

"But you have also examined my physical strength, and I believe that an eight-hundred-year-old spirit ring is still within my tolerance range."

"There's always a price to pay on the path to becoming strong. Besides, even learning from failure is a valuable experience for me, especially since the chance of that happening is almost zero..."

Xu Yang spoke casually, as if the first soul ring in eight hundred years was a piece of cake for him.

At the same time, he looked at Kong Deming with a firm gaze.

Kong Deming looked into Xu Yang's eyes, where he saw the familiar stubbornness, and after a long while, he slowly spoke:

"Alright, I agree, but I'll absorb this spirit ring at home, just in case..."

Seeing that Kong Deming had agreed to let him absorb the Silver Wolf Soul Ring, Xu Yang breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, Kong Deming had given it a lot of thought before he dared to let Xu Yang do this. When Xu Yang’s martial soul had just awakened, he had conducted a thorough examination of Xu Yang’s body inside and out.

In terms of physical strength, Xu Yang is now no weaker than a level 20+ Great Soul Master, but considering that this is Xu Yang's first time absorbing a Soul Ring, he still chooses to play it safe.

However, since Xu Yang had made this request, he couldn't continue to object, since they had enough resources to make a trial and error.

Furthermore, as Xu Yang himself said, there is always a price to pay on the path to becoming a strong person. If you don't even dare to absorb a spirit ring beyond your limits, what future can you talk about...?

With that in mind, Kong Deming let Xu Yang go.

"Then I'll have someone bring you that silver wolf right now. You stay home and wait, and get ready for the work before you absorb the spirit ring."

"No, Grandpa."

Xu Yang rejected Kong Deming's proposal.

"What, do you want to go there yourself?"

Kong Deming had clearly guessed what Xu Yang was thinking. Having raised his grandson for five years, he had a deep understanding of Xu Yang's character.

"Yeah, this can be considered a kind of training. I'll have to hunt for spirit rings on my own eventually."

"It's fine for low-age spirit rings now, but if I need ten-thousand-year or even one-hundred-thousand-year spirit rings in the future, I can't possibly come to you every time I break through."

Xu Yang said, half-jokingly.

He knew that even if he needed a 100,000-year soul ring, he believed that Kong Deming would have plenty of ways to get it for him.

However, in the future, although Kong Deming can defeat the 100,000-year-old soul rings, he also has a chance against the later-stage ferocious beasts.

However, just as Kong Deming said, Xu Yang had already set his sights on the top three of the Ten Great Ferocious Beasts. The most suitable ferocious beast he could think of was not Di Tian, ​​which Kong Deming had mentioned.

Instead, it is the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler, also known as the Evil Emperor. As a super ferocious beast with 790,000 years of cultivation, Kong Deming cannot defeat it.

Although the Ditian Realm was good, Xu Yang's intuition told him that in order to develop the Void Treasury to a deeper level, he needed to have a sufficiently strong mental power. Only in this way could he maximize the power of the Void Treasury.

His powerful mental strength allows him to understand and construct items like soul tools more deeply and quickly. He has two guesses as to why he cannot open the infinite treasure trove of knowledge in the void.

"Firstly, it's because his current mental and soul strength is insufficient, and he doesn't meet the minimum requirements to open the Knowledge Treasury."

"Secondly, insufficient knowledge leads to a lack of recognition from the Void Treasury, preventing one from obtaining the key to the library."

Therefore, he is now very eager to improve his mental strength. In Douluo Continent, higher mental strength means higher learning efficiency and calculation ability.

It is also the cornerstone for acquiring more knowledge.

Moreover, the Void Treasury is Xu Yang's true source of confidence, so he has no choice but to take it seriously.

Moreover, the Evil Emperor is also in cahoots with the Evil Soul Masters... so both publicly and privately, the Evil Emperor is a more suitable target.

Hunting spirit rings is one of the few opportunities to engage in actual combat with spirit beasts.

He had no intention of spending time training with spirit beasts to increase his combat experience; wouldn't it be better to use that time to research new inventions?

Influenced by Kong Deming, Xu Yang is now also a serious enthusiast of soul tools.

He is very talented in both research and development and application.

With his current newly awakened level, he was confident that he could pass the Level 1 Soul Master assessment.

This isn't like the Douluo Three Kingdoms where you can become a substandard Soul Master simply by making a Soul Tool of a certain level. In the Sun Moon Empire, the evaluation of Soul Masters is much stricter than in the other three kingdoms.

You need to be familiar with making a series of soul tools of the same level.

After listening to Xu Yang's explanation.

Kong Deming stroked his chin, a hint of nostalgia in his weathered eyes, and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll take you with me. It's been a long time since I've moved these old bones of mine."
