Douluo Continent: The Spirit Puzzle - I pieced together a god.

"Thirteen hundred years of cultivation is roughly the limit you can withstand. Coupled with his talent, he should be one of the most suitable individuals among the Ice Silkworms for you."

Qian Duoduo was quite moved.

Even as a titled Douluo, he felt exhausted from searching for the Ice Silkworm for Chen Fan.

After three months of hard work, we've finally achieved some results.

Chen Fan also sighed, saying that hunting souls was really too troublesome.

He once again envied the convenience of the later era of spirits.

In the Soul Spirit Era, Soul Spirits are expensive, but as long as you have money and power behind you, it is possible to create the most suitable Soul Rings for yourself.

Taking out a dagger and ending the Ice Silkworm's life, Chen Fan focused on absorbing the Soul Ring.

A bright yellow spirit ring appeared around his body.

The purple soul ring that rose from the ice silkworm's corpse was placed over the yellow soul ring.

Chen Fan's aura also began to change.

Qian Duoduo watched this scene quietly, circulating her soul power to activate the furnace in her hand, while also enveloping Chen Fan with her soul power to prevent any external factors from interfering with him.

......

Five hours later.

Chen Fan got up and stretched his limbs, and a series of crackling sounds rang out.

After moving around in his joints, he gained a deeper understanding of his own body.

"The improvement brought by absorbing a spirit ring of a higher level is real. Every time I absorb a spirit ring of a higher level, I am deeply transforming myself from the perspective of my martial spirit. The spirit ring feeds back and influences my martial spirit, and my martial spirit reflects the changes in my physical body."

This is no less than cleansing the marrow and purifying the meridians, but it is at a deeper level than the cleansing and purifying of the marrow and purifying the meridians of the Xuan Shui Dan.

It's an improvement from the inside out.

The two Xuan Shui Pills allowed him to reach the fifth level of the Innate Realm in terms of physical and meridian cultivation aptitude.

After that, he absorbed spirit rings twice beyond his level, and his innate aptitude was improved again, reaching around level seven.

"How are your soul skills?"

Qian Duoduo asked curiously.

In addition to obtaining puzzle pieces in each spirit ring and transforming the pieces into other people's spirits, Chen Fan's spirit can also gain a spirit skill, just like a normal spirit.

The Three-Eyed Demon Ape Soul Ring provides Chen Fan with a Soul Skill called Mental Black Curtain, which allows his mental power to possess the characteristics of the dark element, transforming it into a black curtain to obscure the enemy's perception.

This is equivalent to depriving the enemy of their mental perception.

It's pretty useless.

In Qian Duoduo's view, it was almost useless.

Soul Masters mostly rely on their eyes to capture information.

Now that Chen Fan has obtained his second spirit ring, Qian Duoduo is extremely nervous, hoping that Chen Fan will not obtain another useless spirit skill.

Chen Fan closed his eyes and felt it.

Two soul rings, one yellow and one purple, pulsed and shone brightly around his body.

The purple soul ring within it emitted a misty purple light.

Chen Fan opened his eyes and said, "My second soul skill is called Mental Link. It can temporarily connect my mental energy with that of my chosen target, or between two targets. During this time, both parties can sense each other's thoughts and gain each other's vision."

This is undoubtedly a replica of the spirit of sharing.

Chen Fan hadn't expected that this thousand-year-old ice silkworm had also awakened a soul skill that allowed for spirit sharing.

By this calculation, this ice silkworm has awakened almost all the soul skills that the ice silkworm clan excels at.

This is an extremely rare talent.

Besides, he is only a thousand years old.

Many soul skills can only be mastered after ten thousand years.

Qian Duoduo's eyes flickered after hearing Chen Fan's explanation of the mental connection.

It still doesn't have much direct relation to the battle.

But at least it wasn't useless.

"Let's go, let's get out of this far north first."

Chen Fan nodded.

......

Shrek City.

After returning, Chen Fan went into seclusion to meditate.

This soul hunt alone took three months just to find soul beasts, and with the travel time, it took nearly four months.

However, he did not accumulate enough level one soul power in those four months!

"Hunting souls is such a waste of time that it hinders my cultivation!"

Chen Fan realized once again the drawbacks of the Soul Hunter.

If we take the Soul Hunting factor into account, many Soul Masters' talents can actually be analyzed from another perspective.

For example, Ma Xiaotao, who was twenty years old and in the class of 1967.

Hunting six spirit rings would take at least a year.

In other words, when calculating her average cultivation speed, it should not be calculated using fourteen years, but rather thirteen years.

Of course, that's a bit of an exaggeration, but hunting souls does indeed interfere with a soul master's cultivation.

The Soul Hunter isn't all bad.

The advantages are very obvious: witnessing life and death and personally killing soul beasts is a special kind of tempering for the soul master's mind.

At the same time, the process of hunting souls is also a unique form of growth for soul masters.

......

"My mental connection can also transmit mental darkness."

After returning to Shrek City, Chen Fan had someone test his soul skills.

A mental veil can obscure the enemy's perception.

The mental link can also transmit the effects of the mental veil.

In other words, if Chen Fan can temporarily connect the minds of multiple people together with his second soul skill, then as long as the mental black curtain successfully obscures the mental perception of one person, he can invade the entire group through this connection.

"What if it weren't my mental connection, but rather the original mental sharing?"

Chen Fan fell into deep thought.

My two soul skills are so obviously effective against Huo Yuhao.

But Chen Fan stated that he really had no intention of targeting the other party.

He only wanted to transform the other party's martial soul, not to target the other party.

"Never mind that, the problem I should be worried about now is obtaining the third spirit ring."

Chen Fan's expression turned serious.

He has already tried meditation.

After reaching the second ring, his cultivation speed decreased further.

Even though his aptitude improved by absorbing a spirit ring of a higher level, it did not completely offset the difficulties in cultivation brought about by the increase in spirit power.

"A level of soul power every three months, and at most four levels in a year, is practically crawling at a snail's pace."

Chen Fan could not accept it.

You have to understand that Zhang Lexuan is a Soul Douluo at the age of 24, which means that he has increased his level by at least 70 in 18 years. The time lost in the eight Soul Hunts must have been at least a year. In 17 years, he has increased his level by 70, which means he has increased his level by more than 4 levels per year on average!

Chen Fan is only at the third ring level, and he can only advance four levels in a year.

What else could this be but a tortoise crawling?

"I have fused with the Thousand-Year Ice Silkworm Soul Ring, and now I have level 22 Soul Power. I will definitely break through to level 30 after Huo Yuhao enters the academy."

In that case, obtaining the third spirit ring is actually very dangerous.

"It seems that Xuanzi led Zhang Lexuan and a group of inner court disciples to hunt souls around this time."

Chen Fan's lips twitched.

He was genuinely afraid that Qian Duoduo would try to get him into the team.

At Shrek Academy, it's perfectly normal to get in through connections.

However, Chen Fan didn't want this back door.

"I hope my uncle can realize how unreliable Xuanzi is."

"Furthermore, now that my breakthrough timeline is roughly set, I should shift some of my focus."

Focusing solely on cultivation is no longer viable.

We need to be prepared to seize this opportunity with Electrolux.

Then came the enrollment process.

"Let's deal with the enrollment issue first. With my current cultivation level, I'm perfectly capable of entering Shrek Academy. There's no need to wait until Huo Yuhao enters at the same time. Zhou Yi is too disgusting; it's best to avoid her if possible."
