Chapter 28 First Soul Ring
After finding an open space, Yang Wudi put down both the Thousand Army Ant and Yang Podi, his face filled with worry: "Podi, you have to hunt the enemy yourself to obtain the Soul Ring. Now, kill this Thousand Army Ant."
"Po Di, you need to think this through again. This Thousand-Pound Ant is much older than the normal age for absorbing a Soul Ring, so the danger factor will be very high, and the absorption process will be very painful."
"Grandpa, you've already tested my physical strength, I'm sure I'll succeed."
Seeing the injured Thousand-Pound Ant before him, Yang Podi summoned his Martial Soul, the Soul-Breaking Spear, and stabbed it directly into the Thousand-Pound Ant's eye. The Thousand-Pound Ant immediately bled profusely and died.
Immediately afterward, a yellow soul ring appeared above the corpse of the Thousand-Pound Ant.
Yang Podi looked at the spirit ring, then sat cross-legged on the ground. He took a deep breath, adjusted his mental state to its best, and began absorbing the spirit ring.
Following the method of absorbing spirit rings, Yang Podi raised his right hand, gathering all his spirit power in his palm. With a sharp glint of light, a black Soul-Breaking Spear appeared in his hand. At the same time, Yang Podi's entire body seemed to react, as if it also desired this spirit ring. Clearly, the Thousand-Pound Ant's spirit ring was very suitable for his original spirit.
But Yang Podi paid no heed to any of that. Guided by his soul power, the Thousand-Pound Ant's soul ring slowly flew toward him. At this moment, as the Thousand-Pound Ant's soul ring approached, he felt an unprecedentedly powerful pressure, and even his bones made slight cracking sounds under this pressure.
Especially after the spirit ring approached his head, a tremendous force surged into his body from the spirit ring. This force seemed to exceed Yang Podi's own limits. After entering his body, it began to rampage, making his meridians and blood vessels feel like they were about to burst.
At the critical moment, Yang Podi's own martial spirit began to take effect, gradually absorbing this power, and his body gradually calmed down.
Before he could react, the yellow halo suddenly contracted, transforming into a solid soul ring the size of a bracelet, which landed directly on the Soul-Breaking Spear martial soul in his right palm. Yang Podi felt as if his right hand had been invaded by magma; a surge of scorching energy rushed in, and a violent heat instantly engulfed his body, making him feel as if his internal organs were burning. His body trembled violently.
At this moment, Yang Podi used all his strength to gather his mind and began to use meditation to guide the energy flowing into his body. Under the influence of this power, the Soul-Breaking Spear in his hand seemed to have been hammered countless times, and the spear gradually became more profound and gloomy, like a piece of ordinary iron that had been forged and tempered a thousand times.
At this moment, Yang Podi could also see more clearly the direction of the flow of soul power in his body, see the internal structure of his body, and see in his mind a giant holding the Soul-Breaking Spear in a sea of fire. The giant's body was strong, and the Soul-Breaking Spear stood proudly in the sea of fire, unyielding.
I don't know how long it took, but the powerful energy in my body gradually merged into one, and my whole body became warm and comfortable. My meridians seemed to have widened a lot, and the flow of soul power became faster, as if my body had broken through a bottleneck.
"It's done! The first spirit ring has finally been successfully absorbed."
When Yang Podi slowly opened his eyes, he felt incredibly refreshed. His strength and physical power had increased significantly. He seemed to be full of energy, and his body was much stronger than before. He had even grown taller.
Standing to the side, Yang Wudi watched as Yang Podi successfully absorbed his first spirit ring and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After all, this was a spirit ring that was nearly 600 years old, which was the highest record for the first spirit ring in the spirit world and a breakthrough in history.
"Grandpa, I did it! I successfully absorbed my first spirit ring."
Yang Wudi was also full of satisfaction: "Podi, you are really good. You actually succeeded in absorbing it. You are worthy of being my grandson, Yang Wudi."
"Po Di, let me check you over to see if there's anything wrong with your body, any hidden injuries or anything like that."
"Grandpa, I feel perfectly healthy right now, there's absolutely no problem."
Ignoring Yang Podi's objections, Yang Wudi carefully examined the body before finally speaking, "Not bad, there's nothing wrong with your body, and you seem to have become much stronger. How about it, Podi? The Thousand-Pound Ant's spirit ring is pretty good, isn't it?"
"Breakthrough, what's the soul skill of your first soul ring? How's its effect?"
"Grandpa, the name of my first soul ring's soul skill is Thousand-Pound Power, and it's incredibly effective. When I use my first soul skill, my physical strength increases by fifty percent, and the power of the Soul-Breaking Spear increases by one hundred percent, lasting for ten minutes. Also, my soul power is already at level 12."
Hearing this, Yang Wudi swallowed hard: "Podi, your first soul skill is really good. It is probably comparable to the thousand-year soul skill of the Power Clan. Moreover, I have rarely heard of weapon spirits increasing physical strength. Usually, it is only after the seventh soul skill that this effect can be achieved."
Hearing his grandfather's words, Yang Podi couldn't help but smile. Only after becoming a Soul Saint can a Soul Master and a Weapon Soul achieve perfect harmony, especially in terms of spiritual power. However, he had two Martial Souls, and the second Martial Soul was his own Body Martial Soul. The harmony between the Martial Souls would be even better, which is why his body could also be amplified.
Just like before becoming a Soul Saint, many people can only see their own weapon spirit when they look inward, but they can see the body holding the weapon spirit. This is the spiritual connection between the weapon spirit and the body.
Especially for power-type soul beasts, and power-type soul beasts that have exceeded their age limit, not only has their weapon soul been improved, but even their physical soul has been enhanced, making them practically perfect.
At this moment, Yang Podi felt that the weight of the Soul-Shattering Spear had increased significantly, and his strength had also increased considerably. He could perfectly adapt to the weight change of the Soul-Shattering Spear martial spirit, and even his mental power had increased considerably. Could this be the advantage of a full-body martial spirit?
Thinking of this, Yang Podi was full of confidence in his decision to choose a power-type spirit ring, especially after absorbing a spirit ring of a higher level. He was even more confident that he could absorb spirit rings of a higher level in the future.
I remember in Douluo Continent II, Du Busi was a full-body martial soul, and his seventh soul ring was a 100,000-year soul ring, which was incredibly powerful.
I also need to work hard to train so that my seventh spirit ring can absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring.
At this point, Yang Wudi had finished cleaning up the corpses of the Thousand-Pound Ants and had not found any soul bones.
Just as the two were about to leave, Yang Podi seemed to have thought of something: "Grandpa, I think there are quite a few medicinal herbs in this tribe's forest. Why don't we look around? Maybe we'll find something."
