Hasty Resurrection of the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring
Chapter 43 Hasty Resurrection of a 100,000-Year-Old Soul Ring
For the next few days, Jerry searched for wood-attribute plants to conduct soul power!
First, Cao Cao was given ten thousand years of cultivation, and she was finally able to communicate with Jerry. Jerry was very happy, and Xiao Wu, Da Ming, and Er Ming were also surprised. Da Ming wondered if Jerry was a reincarnation of a god.
Next, the time was transferred to Manjusaka for 99999 years, almost 100,000 years. Then, Manjusaka was taken to the place of tribulation. Soon, the tribulation of lightning appeared, and she passed through it safely!
Jerry didn't seem to notice anything, but the other spirit beasts were collectively stunned. Could a 100,000-year-old spirit beast be cultivated like this? It was unbelievable, completely shattering the common sense of the spirit beasts!
Next, Jerry stopped letting the Soul Power Seed absorb Soul Power and began to cultivate with all his might. He was already close to breaking through, so a week later he reached level 49, and then it took him another three months to cultivate to level 50! Finally, he could absorb Soul Rings!
Jerry originally wanted to test whether he could absorb the soul power transmitted by the plants, but this soul power carried the consciousness of the plants and could not be absorbed. The growth soul skill could only convert this soul power into unconscious soul power and release it directly, and could not be retained in the body! Jerry was like a tool or conduit, only able to transmit, but the conduit itself could not absorb!
Finally reaching level 50, Jerry found the Manjusaka flower and had it sacrifice its soul ring, so that it could be planted again later!
However, Manjusaka told Jerry that besides sacrificing a soul ring, it could also condense a soul bone, but the location of the soul bone depended on luck! After 100,000 years, Manjusaka also sensed the rules of this world. Even if Manjusaka were to be resurrected again and grow to 100,000 years old to sacrifice again, it would be impossible to produce another soul bone. A soul beast can only produce one soul bone in its lifetime. Plant-type soul beasts are special cases, as they can leave behind seeds and live another life. Other soul beasts die after sacrificing themselves!
Jerry asked if that would have any impact on the future, and Manjusaka said no, it just meant that if she absorbed her own soul bone in the future, she could grow faster. With Jerry's empowerment method, it wouldn't matter whether she had a soul bone or not!
With no further worries, Manjusaka began to sacrifice her spirit ring. Soon, a very strong surge of spirit power rushed towards Jerry. Just when Jerry was about to reach his limit, this spirit power began to contract, and then the energy began to be conducted to his martial soul, quickly condensing into a red spirit ring! Sure enough, sacrificing a spirit ring is the easiest to absorb!
After absorbing the spirit ring, Jerry felt his physical strength had increased to the maximum he could handle. The excess was stored within the spirit ring, to be released gradually as he cultivated. His spirit power level reached 54. Jerry's mental power also received a tremendous boost. The 100,000-year-old spirit beast spirit ring had a revolutionary effect on him, increasing his mental power coverage to a radius of 1600 meters. Moreover, Jerry felt he could see many more minute details; he could even sense the spirit power particles in the air when he concentrated—green, yellow, red, gold, transparent, black, purple, cyan, white, and so on. He had to quickly shrink his mental world to return to normal!
Lying in front of Jerry was a seed and a soul bone—luckily, a head soul bone. Just as Jerry reached for it, the soul bone suddenly flew right in front of him, startling him! He quickly realized—this was telekinesis! Jerry was ecstatic. This breakthrough in his spiritual power, the ability to manipulate objects, was what made him happiest. Compared to this, a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone were nothing. Jerry even wanted to find the Vajra Iron-Eating Ant, a blacksmith in the soul beast world, and have it forge some throwing knives and swords for him!
Jerry, suppressing his excitement, examined the Soul Bone! The Soul Bone had two skills: a Spirit Spear and a Spirit Shield! Just as Jerry was about to absorb it, Da Ming stopped him!
"Jerry, don't absorb the soul bone now. When you absorbed the soul ring before, your body was already strengthened to the maximum extent that it can withstand. You need to adapt for a while before absorbing the soul bone. This way, you can strengthen yourself again. If you absorb it now, the strengthening effect will be much weaker!" Da Ming explained to Jerry!
After hearing this, Jerry sensed his body and realized that his cells were already saturated, so strengthening him now was indeed not a good idea! Then he put away the soul bone!
