Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 64: One word: Poor

"If this continues, won't our souls be..." Tang Wulin said in surprise.

Wang Jinxi, standing to the side, smiled wryly and said, "That's not true. Our bodies all have their limits. Those of us at the second level definitely can't do it. Because we absorb spiritual energy evenly."

With my mental strength, I cannot withstand the simultaneous appearance of two thousand-year soul rings. I estimate that when the cultivation of my two soul rings approaches five hundred years, that will be my limit.

Yangzi's situation should be similar, maybe he'll absorb a little more than me. Perhaps, only you and Gu Yue haven't reached the second ring yet, and there's a possibility you'll obtain a thousand-year soul ring.

Gu Yue asked, "Have you estimated how much spiritual energy we've absorbed so far?"

Nan Fusheng said, "Each person has absorbed about four to five hundred years of energy. On average, each of us with two soul rings has absorbed more than two hundred years of energy."

This doesn't even take into account the spiritual energy around our bodies right now. It will take at least another one to two hundred years for the absorption of this energy to occur.

After leaving here, we'll probably have to be more careful of other Soul Masters than Soul Beasts, and we probably won't be able to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform again for a while.

Their abundant spiritual energy would likely make them an immediate target if seen by other Soul Masters. After all, the Ascension Platform isn't a place for actual killing; who wouldn't want abundant spiritual energy?

If their souls are saturated, it means they can no longer enter the Spirit Ascension Platform to hunt soul beasts and hone their combat experience for a short period of time, because there is a risk that their souls will burst.

As for leaving, it was because the spider silk of the human-faced demon spider had been used up. The spider silk, which was originally a rich yellow-green color, has now become very pale, and its toughness and strength have also decreased significantly, with some cracks beginning to appear.

Although the human-faced spider is highly venomous, the total amount of venom is still limited. Without the protection of the outer spider silk, this place is not safe at all; after all, they are also afraid of touching the venomous spider silk!

Nan Fusheng smiled slightly, "Relax a bit. First of all, we've already finished our final exams, and we've absorbed far more spiritual energy than normal, so it's a win-win situation."

Even if we encounter a powerful enemy and have to leave the Ascension Platform, it won't be a loss. Everyone's recovered, right? Let's leave.

Upon hearing Nan Fusheng's words, everyone immediately perked up.

Nan Fusheng thought for a moment, then reminded his companions, "Everyone, be mindful of your soul's capacity to withstand the spiritual energy you're absorbing. If you feel you can't handle the spiritual energy you're absorbing, immediately press the rescue signal and leave the Ascension Platform."

Never be greedy, otherwise, you'll suffer a huge problem, both mentally and physically.

He himself didn't feel full yet, but others might not. According to his estimation, he still had plenty of spiritual energy left to absorb. So there was no rush.

After all, one's ability to withstand spirit rings is directly related to their physical strength and mental power. With his current physical strength, he is confident that he can withstand even two thousand-year spirit rings.

Needless to say, in terms of spiritual power, it's at the Spirit Sea Realm. That's a realm that can completely support three thousand-year-old souls and one ten-thousand-year-old soul.

However, there's no rush. After all, his displayed spiritual power is only at the Spirit Realm, and even if he absorbs all the surrounding spiritual energy, his soul won't reach the level of a thousand-year-old soul.

Unless he chooses a soul first and allows it to absorb all his spiritual power.

Currently, Nan Fusheng's first soul spirit is approximately 600 years old, and his second soul spirit is over 200 years old. When he purchased it, the second soul spirit was only around 100 years old. The price increases with the age of the soul spirit.

He only had a little over 1.2 million Federal Credits, so he couldn't choose those high-age, hundred-year-old soul spirits. Fortunately, he had the Spirit Ascension Platform sponsored by Donghai Academy, so he didn't have to worry about the soul spirits being too young.

After purchasing the Soul Spirit, Nan Fusheng's savings shrank considerably. Although 200,000 yuan is a huge sum for an ordinary person, it is just a drop in the ocean for a Soul Master's cultivation.

Two hundred thousand yuan, how many mecha parts can that buy? Nan Fusheng can only be described with one word right now: poor!

"Could I have caught poverty from Kelvin? No, no, the most important thing now is to focus."

Nan Fusheng steered his thoughts back on track. He reasoned that Mr. Ke had contracted poverty because his moral standards were too high. "We're different," he said, "we have a very flexible moral compass."

There's a saying that goes, "The most important thing in doing business is to have a conscience."

A person with a conscience earns more.

If you have no conscience, then you'll earn even more.

This principle also applies to the cultivation of Soul Masters.

Nan Fusheng and his group of six carefully avoided the poisonous spider silk, walked out of the densely packed space, and returned to the great forest.

As soon as they left, they heard various strange noises around them, including sounds of collisions, roars of spirit beasts, and occasionally, screams of human spirit masters.

The members of Class Zero had already decided that they should focus on absorbing the spiritual energy they had acquired so far. Normally, they would have to kill countless soul beasts to obtain this much spiritual energy.

Although the absorption is a bit slower now, it's still a rare opportunity. As for the issue of practical experience, Teacher Wu can naturally help solve that; the most important thing is to improve one's own soul realm as much as possible.

This is the primary goal for entering the Ascension Platform!

"Roar!" A roar rang out from ahead, and then a strange python with fire all over its body and six arms appeared not far ahead.

"A six-armed fire serpent. It's a hundred years old, everyone be careful," Nan Fusheng whispered.

Just then, a flash of white light appeared in front of them, and the six-armed fire serpent was instantly riddled with holes.

A series of strange-looking ice wheels danced in the air, their sharp edges slicing through the body of the six-armed fire serpent. Although the six-armed fire serpent wasn't a particularly powerful soul beast, and its defenses were especially weak, it was instantly cleaved in two by these ice wheels. This surprised everyone.

A figure with three soul rings rising from his feet appeared in everyone's sight, and the spiritual power emanating from the six-winged fire serpent had already been absorbed into his body.

This was a young man who looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. He had three soul rings, two yellow and one purple, around his body, indicating that he was a Soul Venerable. In his right hand, he held a pure white weapon.

The only thing that stood out was the long-handled staff with a blue crystal at the top. His face was cold and arrogant, and around his body, there was also a dense yellow aura that was no weaker than the spiritual aura on Nan Fusheng's body.
