The Wonder of God Bestowed Spirit Ring
🕑 Added 2025-04-22 11:53:06 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 79 ---
Dugu Bo observed the manifesting white-colored spirit ring above Han Yuan's head in amazement.
He can vaguely feel this spirit ring bestowed by gods is more special than any spirit ring he has seen, watching it change from white to yellow and then purple.
Dugu Bu mumbled, "According to Young Master, the God Bestowed Spirit Ring will fit the spirit master's martial soul perfectly, even reaching a staggering rate of 300% compatibility."
"Then, the factor that decides the age of the spirit ring must be the spirit master's physical fitness and mental quality. The more powerful these two factors, the older the God Bestowed Spirit Ring is."
"Young Master's physical fitness and mental quality is that of a monster, qualified to rival Spirit Sage Experts, meaning he could endure and absorb a 30,000-year-old to 50,000-year-old spirit ring..."
Dugu Bo sucked a cold breath, "Hiss, absorbing a 50,000-year-old spirit ring as his fourth spirit ring is a terrifying concept..."
"By the sixth spirit ring, the Young Master might need a 100,000-year-old spirit ring!"
Unfortunately, Han Yuan couldn't hear Dugu Bo's words, or he'd scoff at him. Why? Because he's planning to get a 100,000-year-old spirit ring as his fifth spirit ring!
In the past, Han Yuan would be worried about looking for a suitable spirit beast, but not anymore with the existence of the God Bestowed Spirit Ring from the Thunder God Nine Trials.
Of course, Han Yuan also planned for alternatives and wanted to create "Spirit Soul" so his spirit rings could grow with him. Or maybe he should look for a method to improve the spirit ring's age?
Anyway, back to the story. Han Yuan's perception reached the top level he could endure. He blacked out and saw the giant splendor of a tree created by intertwining blue silver grass, purple vines, and golden branches.
It was the origin of his Purple Silver Grass.
However, as Han Yuan looked down, he could see traces of other origins, such as the Thunderstruck Tree, Fallen Lightning Bamboo, or Skywart Tree.
Looking further down, Han Yuan could see the tree's roots shrouded with mystical gray mist.
"I see... So, that's how it works." Han Yuan realized the principle behind the God Bestowed Spirit Ring.
It's somewhat similar to a transformed spirit beast that produces its own spirit ring by utilizing its spirit beast's origin.
Both methods scanned into bloodlines (genetic ancestry), remaining will (spiritual record), and a trace of existence inside the martial soul, and then let the spirit master choose the best one out of instinct.
So, if transformed spirit beasts could choose, they could even obtain the power of their ancestors, the divine beasts. But looking at the Douluo Dalu series progress, it seemed the spirit beasts lost this ability.
Well, their race wasn't very loved by this world.
Han Yuan had a bold idea, "Then, I can trace down the ancestry of Purple Silver Grass, right? It's not impossible to get a pure origin from the Blue Silver Emperor or even the Thunder Hell Prison Vine."
"I could even trace an existence older than that..."
"Roots that exist exclusively in the ancient era when the Dragon Clan and Dragon God reigned the Douluo Planet, Ancient Spirit Beasts."
"The problem is... How far back should I trace it?" He pondered, gazing into the misty roots of his martial soul's tree.
With that in mind, Han Yuan explored this wondrous realm and traced his martial soul's ancestry. It took him around twenty hours to finally discover the Blue Silver Emperor and another ten hours to encounter the Thunder Hell Prison Vines.
He also discovered that he could see bloodline inheritances, nitpicking their history and the most suitable abilities he could etch into his spirit ring.
Countless hours passed as Han Yuan continued to trace his martial soul's ancestry, but he wasn't tired. In fact, he was 'truly' exhilarated.
Han Yuan has been stuck in his spirit ring research for a while now, and this is another breakthrough that renewed his ambition. Perhaps he could use this breakthrough to sabotage Tang San.
He's sure Yu Xiaogang would cover him on that matter. He's the greatest theorist in the world, no?
The Blue Silver Clan only has one emperor.
It will always stay like that!
Kekeke~!
After tracing down many complicated roots, Han Yuan finally discovered the best target. Although it would be best to get the pure origin of the Blue Silver Emperor and Thunder Hell Prison Vines, he could get them eventually.
At the moment, the Purple Silver Grass needed a new catalyst to surpass that. And this traced ancestry has such a strong origin.
"The Great Sun Thunder Cattails, an ancient plant spirit beast that can absorb the very essence of the sun and transform it into life and lightning energy, developed into "Great Sun Thunder Body" because of its great trait that is impervious to physical and energy attacks within its fighting realm."
"This ancient plant spirit beast is as strong as some true dragon. It killed and swallowed some Dark Dragons from Dark Dragon King's direct line before eventually being wiped by the Dragon Clan in retaliation."
"Dark Dragon, there is currently one remaining in the Douluo Planet, and it's none other than the Golden-Eyed Dark Dragon, Di Tian, in the Star Dou Forest."
"Heh, he's probably in a deep sleep or observing the continent in silence right now."
"I wonder what kind of face Di Tian would make when he knew my fourth spirit ring is from the Great Sun Thunder Cattails."
After that, Han Yuan immediately chose the pure origin of the Great Sun Thunder Cattails, watching its ancient presence manifesting through the divine power left in the God Bestowed Spirit Ring and merging with the Purple Silver Grass.
...
In the real world, Dugu Bo broke into a cold sweat because the aura from the spirit ring generated by divine power has reached an unfathomable level.
The formerly purple spirit ring has turned jet-black with bronze markings all over.
"Damn it! What kind of spirit ring is this? It is too much!" He felt choking feelings in the air as the energy barrier he made was about to break into pieces.
Kacha!
"Fuck!" Dugu Bo cursed, but thankfully, someone supported him.
Liu Erlong ]successfully absorbed her spirit bone and was unexpectedly greeted by the sight of Dugu Bo cursing while doing his best to maintain the energy barrier.
She was confused but quickly used her Ultimate Annihilation to erase the chaotic elements in the air.
"What happened?" Liu Erlong asked Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo's mouth twitched, "Look, it's Young Master."
Liu Erlong followed Dugu Bo's gaze and saw Han Yuan meditating not far away with his Purple Silver Grass floating in the air alongside the weird jet-black spirit ring with ancient bronze markings.
From the first glance, she could tell the spirit ring wasn't simple.
Then, Han Yuan's body slowly emitted a sun-like brightness and covered the whole mountain field with his brilliance. At that moment, a miniature sun shone below the white moon.
Swoosh!
...
Deep in the Star Dou Forest's center, a majestic Dark Dragon opened his dim golden eyes and felt a shiver down his spine. It was an instinctual reaction, which left him confused for a second.
"Why did I react like this?"
"How weird..." The Dark Dragon pondered for a bit before closing his eyes again.
...
Kacha!
Han Yuan's cultivation base finally broke through. His once level 40 spirit rank rose to level 47 like a bursting rocket, nearing level 48. Yet, he didn't try to push it to level 48 because that would make his foundation severely unstable.
After all, there are limits to the Immortal Pills he made. While he could eat them like candy to increase his cultivation base, there is no real strength behind it. He'd only become fat with pure energy, making him no different than a 'certain' worm.
Han Yuan opened his eyes and felt a newfound strength coursing in his veins, laughing in enjoyment, "Heh, a 69,999-year-old spirit ring, huh? It wasn't bad at all."
"As for the spirit skill, well..."
