Douluo: Becoming the Taoist Priest from the Enlightenment Tree

Chapter 55: Soul Ring It Should Be a Ring
Wu Dao took out the somewhat strange-shaped "soul ring" from the space and placed it in front of Leng Yue.

"Soul ring?"

Leng Yue was confused. She hadn't gone to hunt soul beasts yet. Could it be that the senior wanted to hunt soul beasts for her personally?

But when she saw the strange-looking, faintly glowing thing in Wu Dao's hand, bad guesses emerged in her mind.

"Senior, you are not saying that this thing in front of you is a spirit ring."

Leng Yue's white and tender fingers carefully pointed at the soul ring in Wu Dao's hand, and there was still a last glimmer of luck in her tone.

"Yes, that's it."

Wu Dao still had that gentle smile on his face, but now to Leng Yue he looked like a ferocious beast.

"Senior! The spirit ring should be a ring!"

Leng Yue's tone was a little frustrated. What the hell was this little tentacle waving around? Would he die immediately if he absorbed it?

"Hmm~ Why not? It's just that the space in the middle of this ring may be smaller, so you can't see it, so you can absorb it."

Wu Dao didn't care about Leng Yue's complaints. After all, he also thought that scolding something he made was like scolding himself, so he didn't care too much.

Hearing Wu Dao's slightly changed tone, Leng Yue's heart trembled slightly. Knowing that she could not refuse, she sat down cross-legged obediently, ready to meet her unknown fate.

Watching Leng Yue's actions, Wu Dao found that this girl was quite sensible. Although she was a princess, she did not have princess syndrome. If she survives, he would let her go and continue to observe.

Putting the "Soul Ring" in front of Leng Yue, Wu Dao said with a hint of smile in his tone.

"Try your best to absorb this spirit ring. The longer you persist, the older the spirit ring will be, and the more suitable the spirit skills will be for you."

Wu Dao thought about it and added another sentence.

"perhaps."

"How can it be!"

Leng Yue exclaimed, her heart already filled with turmoil. If what the senior said was true, then humans would no longer have to hunt soul beasts, and if they persisted, wouldn't they be able to obtain a hundred thousand year soul ring?

"What a fuss. Just because you don't know something doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You are a princess of a kingdom, but you can't even maintain your elegant manners."

Wu Dao rolled his eyes at the guy. He suspected that he was stalling for time.

A bitter smile appeared on Leng Yue's face. Any normal person would be shocked to hear this news.

However, seeing how confidently Wu Dao spoke, although Leng Yue was unsure about this, she still held on to a glimmer of hope. What if she succeeded?

Thinking of this, Leng Yue began to focus his mind and pulled it closer and integrated it into his body in the same way he had absorbed soul rings in the past.

The next second, Leng Yue groaned, her brows furrowed, as if she was under tremendous pressure. Sweat began to appear on her forehead, and her breathing became increasingly unstable.

"About to fail?"

Wu Dao felt Leng Yue's rising and falling breath and subconsciously made a judgment.

But after thinking about it, Wu Dao decided to prepare for treatment. As long as he wasn't dead, whether he succeeded or failed, it would be helpful for his previous experiments.

Leng Yue was in dire straits at this moment. This was a completely different experience from absorbing the soul ring before.

Before, when she absorbed soul rings, she had to fight against the constant energy shocks, but now, she was under an inexplicable pressure that was constantly increasing. The soul power in her body fled like a mouse seeing a cat. She could not resist the energy at all and could only let it continue to spread and extend in her body.

She kept driving the soul power in her body to make it compatible with her own soul power, but that energy seemed to have its own consciousness, constantly driving away Leng Yue's soul power and not letting her get close. She was almost numb.

As time went by, the pressure in the body became greater and greater, causing Leng Yue's body to tremble constantly.

"Ah~"

A comfortable groan was heard. It was Apollo who had absorbed all the spirit rings and was now a quasi-soul master at level 40. Wu Dao had forgotten that this guy could reach level 40 after absorbing spirit rings, but he planned to let this guy hunt the remaining spirit beast by himself, just in time to hone his combat awareness.

Apollo had just woken up when he saw Wu Dao still sitting on the Deinonychus bear, but there was a pretty woman in front of him? There were also other people lying crookedly on the ground next to him.

"She is also absorbing spirit rings?" Apollo came to Wu Dao and showed curiosity about the second woman he saw.

"That's right, but she absorbed a spirit ring that I made with unknown effects. The risks are unknown. How about it, I'll treat you well."

It was already dark, and a bright yellow flame was burning out of nowhere in front of Wu Dao, barely illuminating the small area.

"The spirit ring you pinched?"

After all, Apollo didn't know much and didn't realize the significance of this matter. He just looked at the flickering light and shadow on Wu Dao's face and was a little dazed.

"Why are you so nice to me?"

He was very puzzled. Although he had never gotten along with other people, he knew that he had to be vigilant about everything. There is no free food in the world. He felt very complicated about this and didn't know what to do.

"Didn't I tell you that I know your father? I'll probably be his enemy in the future. I'm going to take you to beat up your scumbag father. A filial son versus a scumbag father, it's going to be fun, isn't it?"

After Wu Dao finished speaking, Apollo breathed a sigh of relief. Although he didn't know what Wu Dao's other purpose was, as long as you and that man are enemies, he would be willing to become a tool.

After all, his mother was a soul master, but she ran to this remote island to live with him alone. In the end, he watched his mother get sick and weaker. Apollo was full of hatred for him.

The two of them sat there in silence, roasting themselves by the fire while waiting for Leng Yue to successfully absorb the energy.

"Where shall we go next?"

Apollo suddenly spoke, with flames dancing in his eyes.

"I don't know. I'll just go wherever I want and learn about the local customs and practices."

Wu Dao was also very confused about where to go. He didn't know what to do when he had free time. Sometimes, the materials he had researched would appear in his mind involuntarily. He was truly possessed.

Apollo hummed and said nothing more, staring at the dancing flames in a trance.

"Success?"

Wu Dao turned his head and looked at Leng Yue, whose breathing had calmed down. It seemed that he didn't have to collect the body of this girl. He himself didn't expect that the absorption would go so smoothly.

Leng Yue opened her eyes, exhaled deeply, and subconsciously took out the handkerchief that she had stuffed in her pocket in an emergency and began to wipe the sweat off her face. Only then did she realize that there were two men, one big and one small, looking at her.

"Senior~There is still..."

Leng Yue didn't know how to call Apollo and felt a little confused.

"This guy's name is Apollo, don't worry about him, just tell me how you feel now."

Wu Dao waved his hand to signal Leng Yue not to be distracted, as the next thing was the key point.

"Okay, senior."

Leng Yue had a serious expression and spoke seriously.

"When absorbing this 'Soul Ring', what I am worried about is not the energy shock I experienced before, but the fact that I simply cannot combine it with my own soul power..."

After Leng Yue's complaints, Wu Dao realized that the thing he made seemed to be a little different, but except for the addition of one more program at the end, the previous program was exactly the same.

However, what Leng Yue said was just an individual case. In the end, she didn't know why that energy suddenly merged into her soul power, which continuously improved her cultivation and made her body stronger. It seemed that there was no danger, but in fact it was purely a gamble.

"Then why don't you try using your soul skills?"

Wu Dao remembered that the princess's martial soul was the Shining Moon Sword. Her every move seemed to be surrounded by moonlight, and her combat power was enhanced under the moonlight.

Leng Yue summoned his martial spirit, and the slender sword flickered with a faint silver glow, as if kissed by the moonlight. The silver hilt had a metallic luster and was engraved with intricate and mysterious patterns, making it look mighty and domineering.

Two yellow soul rings floated up and down around him, but the "soul ring" with a faint purple color above his head remained unchanged.

Apollo was surprised when he saw the spirit ring that was completely different from his own, and Leng Yue was even more in tears. After the battle with this kind of spirit ring, he was afraid that countless people would want to study him.

Although the Spirit Hall is suppressing the Fallen Soul Masters, it is not only the Fallen Soul Masters who are interested in him. Those big shots have a lot of people under their command who do such secret things.

　The next chapter contains a lot of psychological descriptions of the protagonists, and speculations about spirit rings and martial spirits. The amount of information is huge, but it is not authentic and there may be loopholes. I can only say that I will try my best to write it. If you are not interested, you don’t have to subscribe. Don’t waste your money. But I also hope that members of Qyue will turn to the last page of the next chapter if they are not interested. It’s okay not to read it. Thank you very much QAQ
