Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 490 The Snow Empress's Shock!

Han Feng's expectation for his eighth soul skill, the Blazing Shield, is at least 500,000 years of cultivation, which is not an easy task for Han Feng at present.

This time, absorbing the divinely bestowed soul ring was the longest Han Feng had ever done, taking a full five months!

In those five months, Han Feng turned twenty.

Han Feng didn't know what level his cultivation would soar to after successfully absorbing his eighth spirit ring, but he roughly estimated that it wouldn't be lower than level 85—a breakthrough that would directly boost his cultivation by five levels, and with twin ultimate martial spirits at that! If outsiders knew about this, who knows what kind of shock it would cause!

In the past five months, Han Feng has successfully pushed the cultivation level of the God-given Soul Ring to his minimum requirement of 500,000 years!

Han Feng was still somewhat dissatisfied. Although he was already close to his limit, no matter how much he tried to muster his strength, the age of his God-given Soul Ring was increasing at a snail's pace, almost to the point of stopping!

But ultimately, we are moving forward!

Han Feng is a stubborn person. Once he has made up his mind about something, his stubbornness will get the better of him and no one can stop him. Since he wants to know where his limits are, he must know!

Two more months passed, making a total of seven months, during which the Snow Empress remained outside the cave to protect Han Feng.

Xue Di, who was closest to Han Feng, could clearly feel the powerful fluctuations within the cave.

Seven months ago, that power could only be described as raw and profound, but now there is an aura within it that is not much weaker than hers!

This discovery made Xue Di's heart tremble, but what relieved her was that the fluctuations had been slowly receding recently, as if they had been absorbed. Xue Di knew, of course, who was absorbing this power, but in Xue Di's eyes, this was a divine decree. Apart from yearning for the power of the gods, she could only quietly wait for Han Feng to emerge from seclusion.

In a sense, Xue Di's thoughts were not wrong!

The process of receding lasted for a whole week. The power that made Xue Di's heart trembled faded away, but in its place was Han Feng's aura!

If Xue Di was merely shaken before, she was now horrified!

Xue Di had been watching over Han Feng all along. She had personally witnessed Han Feng break through to level 80 before he went into seclusion, but now, the aura emanating from Han Feng clearly indicated that he was already at level 86!

Xue Di even sensed a real threat from Han Feng's aura!

Han Feng is now absolutely qualified to defeat Xue Di!

Xue Di didn't know what had happened to Han Feng in the past eight or nine months, but there was no doubt that Han Feng's strength had undergone a tremendous transformation!

Of course it will transform!

Not to mention the Titan Snow Ape's spirit rings and spirit bones, Han Feng's fourth divinely bestowed spirit ring alone would be enough to transform any spirit master!

Han Feng eventually deduced his eighth spirit ring to the level of 576,500 years. Although he ultimately failed to break through the 600,000-year mark, it was still an extremely rare spirit ring. Unless Han Feng killed the Snow Empress, the Zhenbing Martial Soul could never absorb a spirit ring of this level!

If there were beings in the Xuanming Land whose cultivation was comparable to that of the Snow Emperor, they would have already rebelled. How could they have been suppressed by the Snow Emperor for so many years?

This soul ring, with its 570,000 years of cultivation, did not disappoint Han Feng, as it brought two extremely excellent soul skills!

Because the Shield of Blazing Sky has the inheritance of two divine positions, these two soul skills were well divided between the God of Defense and the God of Fire, one being a defensive soul skill and the other a fire soul skill.

The defensive soul skill is called Life-Locking Shield, a simple and unpretentious name. The effect of the soul skill is also nothing fancy; it simply locks lives!

It can withstand a fatal blow; that's the effect of the Life-Locking Shield!

If that were all, Han Feng would still be dissatisfied. After all, this was a spirit ring with 570,000 years of cultivation, far exceeding the cultivation level of any spirit ring Han Feng had ever obtained. If it was just a life-locking ring, it would be too disappointing!

Not to boast, but Han Feng didn't believe that anyone in the Douluo Continent could cause him fatal damage!

Han Feng has no shortage of defensive measures. His eighth-ring level Life Defense alone is no different from absolute defense. As long as it is used properly, who can break through Han Feng's defense!

The reason Han Feng was so satisfied with this soul skill was that it wasn't locked to Han Feng himself; others could use it too!

Han Feng can create three Life-Locking Shields at once. He can do whatever he wants with them, but anyone who wields a Life-Locking Shield can absolutely block one fatal blow, even divine punishment. Furthermore, the moment the Life-Locking Shield breaks, Han Feng can choose to teleport to the person who broke it—this is simply a divine skill!

To be honest, after his cultivation level exceeded eighty, Han Feng no longer cared much about his own safety. It wasn't that Han Feng was unafraid of death, but rather that there was no one on the entire continent who could put him in danger!

However, Han Feng could not absolutely guarantee the safety of his relatives and friends!

Just like Ning Rongrong asked Han Feng back then, even now, Han Feng can't always be by Ning Rongrong's or Qian Renxue's side. They will eventually be separated. Better safe than sorry, Han Feng doesn't want Qian Renxue and Ning Rongrong to be in any danger!

The appearance of the Life-Locking Shield completely relieved Han Feng of his worries!

"Hmm..." Inside the Snow Emperor's cave, Han Feng looked at the soul ring with a faint golden light before him, pondered for a moment, and then muttered to himself, "Three Life-Locking Shields. My parents are almost always together, and they're in Heaven Dou City, so it's perfect to give them one. Not only will it protect them, but if anything happens in Heaven Dou City, I can get there immediately! As for the remaining two, Qianqian and Rongrong can each have one! That's fine for now!"

Three Life-Locking Shields were actually not enough. Han Feng didn't plan to keep any for himself, but it still wasn't enough to share. Han Feng could only apologize to Dai Mubai and the others in his heart.

Besides the Life-Locking Shield, there is also a fire-based soul skill called Holy Flame Heaven-Burning Strike!

After obtaining this soul skill, Han Feng did not offer any further explanation or insights. However, whenever his mind turned to this, a scene would always flash through his mind!

On screen, the earth is cracked, scorched and desolate, devoid of life, and utterly silent. The sky is shrouded in golden flames, which ignite everything and burn through the heavens. In the entire world, only flames are burning!

This scene made Han Feng realize that this soul skill was a pure offensive soul skill, a soul skill capable of burning the heavens!

It's no exaggeration to say that even Han Feng himself was wary of this soul skill, worried that his control over it was insufficient and that it would eventually go out of control!

That would definitely be a disaster that affects the entire continent!

Therefore, Han Feng did not dare to use this soul skill lightly before he had fully mastered it.

"But I finally succeeded. I don't know how much time has passed..." Composing himself, Han Feng lazily stretched, his body crackling like popping beans from sitting for so long, and muttered to himself unconsciously.

The stillness breeds restlessness. Although Han Feng had been cultivating, he vaguely sensed the passage of time, and the slight soreness in his shoulders urged him to leave this place as soon as possible.

Besides, isn't Xue Di still waiting outside?

Thinking of this, Han Feng couldn't wait to stand up and prepare to go to the Xuanming Land to cause trouble for the sixth 100,000-year-old soul beast!

Han Feng was getting a little addicted. This kind of cultivation that could improve without any drawbacks simply by fighting soul beasts—surely no soul master could resist it!

However, Han Feng's cultivation method is also impossible to replicate - in this world, no one can easily defeat a 100,000-year-old soul beast when they are at the Soul Saint realm, and no one can cultivate the three paths of essence, qi and spirit simultaneously and make progress at the same time. If it were someone else, it would be a problem whether they could absorb a 100,000-year-old soul ring!

Even Han Feng himself, before breaking through to the Soul Saint realm, knew of the existence of the Xuanming Land, but could only pass by Jinshan and dared not enter!

"Wait a minute!" Han Feng was already preparing to leave seclusion when the voice of the God of Defense suddenly echoed in his mind: "Since you've already absorbed the left arm bone of the ultimate ice attribute, why not absorb this soul bone as well!"

"Huh?" Han Feng hadn't reacted for a moment when he saw a flash of divine light before his eyes, and a crystal-clear, jade-like soul bone covered in blazing golden flames appeared in front of him.

This is a right arm bone, and it's a divinely bestowed right arm bone with the ultimate fire attribute!

This is clearly the work of Vulcan!

The God of Defense's calm and collected voice rang out again: "Don't be greedy this time. Since your left arm bone has a cultivation level of two hundred thousand years, even if you have the ability, the cultivation level of your right arm bone should not exceed two hundred thousand years, understand!?"

"Ah..." Han Feng blinked awkwardly, momentarily at a loss for words.

Han Feng has been in the far north for over a year, but he has spent most of his time absorbing soul rings and soul bones!

Outside the cave, Xue Di, who thought Han Feng was about to emerge from seclusion for the third time, widened her eyes in surprise. Sensing that familiar divine fluctuation, she almost cried out, "There's more!?"
