Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Truth Doctor, Son-in-Law of the Spirit Hall

Chapter 62 is simply perfect.

"How dare you, human! You dare to harm a soul beast!!!" A roar rang out from the sky, and a figure pounced down.

"Stop!!!"

Tianqing Niu Mang hurriedly shouted, and his tail whipped upwards, blocking Ladio's head.

"Bang……!!!"

A dull thud was heard.

Tianqing Niu Mang's body swayed slightly, and his figure in the air fell down.

Those were three Crimson Demon Mastiffs, the Crimson Demon Mastiff patriarch who had rushed here on the orders of the Crimson King.

He fell from mid-air and was completely dumbfounded to see that Tianqing Niu Mang had actually stopped him.

The fact that the Azure Bull Python had already produced a spirit ring is proof of its death.

And yet he's still full of energy, even able to whip himself away with his tail?!

"Azure Bull Python? What's going on? Did this human kill another 100,000-year-old soul beast?" the Crimson Demon Hound patriarch asked in confusion.

Tianqing Niu Mang explained, "No soul beasts died, and this 100,000-year soul ring was also created by me."

Tianqing Niu Mang looked at his newly formed 100,000-year soul ring, its bright red color radiating an aura of the same origin as his own.

Although it is red in appearance, the soul power contained inside is almost negligible.

"???" The Crimson Demon Hound Clan Chief was even more dumbfounded; this was simply mind-blowing!

The other spirit beasts were equally shocked, their eyes fixed on the red spirit ring.

My head is buzzing. My brain capacity is not large to begin with, and this has further shattered my worldview.

It's estimated that they won't recover for quite some time.

While the soul beasts were still in shock, Xie Yue was completely stunned by the enormous surprise!

They're completely disoriented from all the damage!

This is a 100,000-year-old spirit ring!

One of the most coveted treasures for a Soul Master.

Now it has actually appeared in front of me, and it's the fifth spirit ring!

Xie Yue was so weak he could barely stand, and his heart felt like it was about to jump out of his mouth.

"Is...is this mine?"

Ignoring the soul beast's astonishment, Ladio pointed at Xie Yue and said, "Absorb him."

Xie Yue nodded vigorously, his hand trembling as he reached out, his fingertips just touching the red soul ring.

In an instant, the spirit ring was absorbed into his fingertip.

He just wanted to touch this treasure and see what it felt like.

So it was just absorbed directly?!

He released his spirit rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple... red!!!

The fifth spirit ring was a 100,000-year spirit ring!

This is an unprecedented feat that no one in the Douluo Continent could have imagined before today.

But now Xie Yue has made it a reality.

Xie Yue's lips twitched as he tried his best to suppress a loud laugh.

A minute later, he managed to calm himself down, then asked with considerable confusion, "Mr. Radio, this spirit ring must be a 100,000-year spirit ring, but my spirit power hasn't leveled up..."

Generally speaking, a Soul Master will gain at least one level when absorbing a Soul Ring.

But now, Xie Yue has absorbed a 100,000-year soul ring, yet he hasn't gained any power at all!

This change left Xie Yue completely baffled.

Ladio smiled slightly, grasped Xie Yue's red spirit ring, sensed the situation inside, and said in a clear voice:

"That's normal. Apart from the soul power required to maintain this soul ring, I didn't have the Azure Bull Python add any extra soul power to it. In other words, you won't get any soul ring soul power replenishment."

"Similarly, you can maintain your purity as a result. Replenishing your spirit rings and spirit power is inherently a defilement of a spirit master."

"And the current spirit rings are pure, making it easier for you to use the three-element fusion technique."

What Ladio was referring to was the difference between self-generated spirit rings and ordinary spirit rings.

Ordinary spirit rings are generated when spirit beasts die, carrying excess spirit power. When a spirit master absorbs them, they can level up, but they are no longer pure and also affect their talent.

Even if it absorbs a spirit ring, it doesn't completely belong to the spirit master!

Even with his powerful mental strength, Tang San failed to detect the Deep Sea Demon Whale King's soul hidden within his spirit ring when he became a god.

Moreover, spirit rings cannot be absorbed by spirit masters on their own; spirit skills must be used through spirit rings.

All of this indicates that the spirit ring is an "outsider".

While Soul Masters can use it, they are also "contaminated" by the Soul Power it carries.

Just like how a Soul Master has a certain level of innate Soul Power, there is generally an upper limit to their cultivation realm.

However, with the same effort, not everyone can fully grow.

One of the reasons is the influence of the spirit rings.

In reality, the theoretical growth limit of a Soul Master's innate Soul Power far exceeds the current consensus in the Soul Master community.

The most typical example is Yu Xiaogang, who only had half a level.

That was barely enough to unlock the limits of his innate soul power.

To use a spirit ring perfectly without being affected, or to minimize the impact as much as possible, it should be like this, with almost no spirit power leaking out from the spirit ring!

Xie Yue nodded repeatedly; he understood. This was for his own good!

Without external soul power, his talent is enough to support him to go even higher!

"Thank you, Mr. Radio..." Xie Yue bowed deeply, unable to express any more praise or admiration for Mr. Radio.

Because the other person has become the only god in my heart!

"Although it doesn't come with soul power, the effects of a 100,000-year-old soul skill are still fully realized. You can even modify it to develop a soul skill that's more suitable for you."

Ladio nodded.

Xie Yue responded excitedly.

Only then did the soul beasts realize what was happening.

The Crimson Demon Mastiff Clan Chief immediately came to the Azure Bull Python's side and sniffed its scent.

The soul power of the Azure Bull was almost the same. In order to maintain the basic soul power for the formation of a 100,000-year soul ring, it was only equivalent to 100 years!

A hundred years of soul power is just a drop in the ocean for him!

"I can't imagine why such a thing would happen..." the Crimson Demon Hound chieftain muttered to himself. The more he observed the Azure Bull Python, the less he understood.

The Crimson Demon Mastiff patriarch suddenly stopped and said:

"Azure Bull, this matter is too big, I must go back and inform my father! Perhaps, the Soul Beast Realm is really about to change!" After saying this, the Crimson Demon Hound Clan Chief ran away quickly.

He came suddenly and left in a hurry, filled with urgency.

"Da Ming, Da Ming, are you really not feeling any discomfort?" The Titan Giant Ape ran to the Azure Bull Python's side, looking him up and down, its lantern-like eyes filled with worry.

The other spirit beasts also gathered around, watching the figure of the Azure Bull Python, as well as Ladio and Xie Yue.

Before this, who could have believed that Latio could actually succeed?

Tianqing Niu Mang laughed, "Aside from being a little sleepy, I feel almost nothing! Ladio did it! Even without dying, we can produce spirit rings!"

Tianqing Niu Mang's voice was light and cheerful, and his glance at Ladio was filled with shock and admiration.

This is absolutely a human being worthy of my respect!
