"Here's a token for you. It's a Spirit Hall Elder's Token that I specifically asked your aunt for. It will give you certain advantages at Spirit Hall branches in various locations." As she spoke, Lin Ya took out a token engraved with a blazing fire kite from her soul tool and placed it in Mu Ci's hand.
"But you have to promise Grandma that you'll come home to visit every now and then."
"Okay, Grandma, I will."
Mu Ci took the token and assured the two elderly people.
After saying this, Mu Ci returned to her training room to experiment with her newly acquired second soul skill and plan her next journey.
Mu Changsheng and Lin Ya also went to handle the acquisition of whale glue and report to the Papal Palace.
-
Wuhun City, inside the Pope's Palace.
The light from the soul-guided device illuminated the entire hall, where a stunningly beautiful figure sat before the papal chair, handling various matters reported by the Spirit Halls from different regions.
Just then, a series of crisp footsteps broke the silence in the Papal Palace.
"Teacher, are you looking for me?"
A slightly hoarse girl's voice rang out; it was a girl who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old.
The girl's youthful face may seem ordinary at first glance, but the more you look, the more you will discover the beauty hidden deep within.
Her jet-black hair cascaded over her shoulders, her skin was as white as mutton fat jade, gleaming with a faint white light, and her pair of pink fox eyes seemed to be smiling, captivating the soul.
"Nana, you're almost level 20, right?"
Hearing her disciple's voice, the seated figure lifted her beautiful face from the desk. She wore a magnificent purple papal robe that outlined her near-perfect figure, and a nine-curved purple-gold crown. Her face beneath the crown was as if adorned with jade, her skin as white as snow, and she exuded an unparalleled noble aura.
Hu Liena walked lightly to Bibi Dong's side and said in a tone that sounded almost coquettish, "Yes, teacher, Nana's breakthrough is just around the corner. Is it because Nana hasn't met your standards?"
Looking at her disciple, who was more like a daughter than a daughter, Bibi Dong said gently, "Teacher is very satisfied with Nana's cultivation speed. Teacher recently obtained a secret formula that allows one to absorb a thousand-year soul ring beyond the limit at the second stage. Nana, would you like it?"
The second ring of the millennium? Hu Liena was startled by this news, exclaiming in her heart how could this be possible, but then she thought again, as the Pope of the Spirit Hall, who could possibly deceive her?
But still somewhat doubtful, he asked, "Teacher, you haven't been tricked, have you? You once taught me that the absorption limit for the second spirit ring is around 750 years. How could there be a second ring that lasts for a thousand years?"
Hearing Hu Liena's doubts and concerns, Bibi Dong raised her hand and tapped her disciple's forehead with her slender index finger, saying affectionately, "Silly girl, since I've said it, it means this method is feasible. Now that we've come this far, your teacher will test Nana's learning."
At this point, Bibi Dong's expression became more serious, and she said, "Nana, can you explain the absorption period for the first four rings and why you can only absorb so many?"
Hu Liena thought for a moment and said, "The absorption time for the first four rings is about 420 years, 760 years, 1700 years, and 5000 years respectively. Since different soul masters have different limits, the absorption time standard can only be used as a reference."
Bibi Dong nodded in satisfaction and then asked, "Then tell me why their absorption limits are different, and what factors determine their absorption limits?"
Hu Liena hesitated for a while, thinking for a long time before answering uncertainly, "Generally speaking, the absorption limit of a Beast Martial Soul is higher than that of a Weapon Martial Soul."
"Because the enhancement of a beast spirit to the body is far greater than that of a weapon spirit separated from the body, the higher the level of the beast spirit, the greater the enhancement to the spirit master."
"Just like the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex's enhancement to a Soul Master far exceeds that of an ordinary mouse or cat."
"So the reason for the absorption limitations in the first four rings is that the Soul Master's body is not strong enough?"
Bibi Dong looked at Hu Liena's cautious appearance with a helpless expression and said irritably, "Be confident. I won't punish you if you answer wrong. What are you afraid of?"
He then changed the subject, saying, "You guessed right. A Soul Master's first four Soul Rings are indeed related to the body. This is because for Soul Rings less than ten thousand years old, you only need to consider the impact of the Soul Ring's Soul Power. The stronger the body, the higher the tolerance and the longer the absorption period."
"Soul beasts that are over ten thousand years old have soul power that is no different from that of ordinary people. When they die, a large amount of their soul remains inside their soul rings, which hinders the soul master from absorbing it."
"It's not that no one knew this principle in the past, but to increase the limit by a little bit, they had to waste a lot of meditation time on hard training. Perhaps it would take three years of training to increase the limit by a hundred years, which is extremely uneconomical."
Hearing this, Hu Liena's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "Teacher, does that mean someone has invented a method to significantly improve one's physical condition without exercise? Is it the secret formula you mentioned?"
Bibi Dong smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, it was presented by the bishop of Shenmu City through Elder Lingyuan. The method has been verified and is very good. It has a very significant effect on the improvement of the first few soul rings."
"Take the secret formula for the next few days, and wait until your body can absorb the thousand-year soul ring before you start hunting for souls."
Hu Liena's eyes sparkled as she began to imagine herself possessing the second ring of the millennium, and she confidently addressed Bibi Dong:
"Teacher, then I can become the number one person of my generation across the entire continent!"
Seeing Hu Liena like this, Bibi Dong shook her head and chuckled, "That's not necessarily true. Do you know who invented this secret recipe?"
Hearing her teacher's question, Hu Liena widened her fox-like eyes and asked somewhat blankly, "Wasn't it invented by that bishop?"
Bibi Dong shook her head, told Hu Liena the true inventor, and said with a smile.
"No, he's the grandson of that bishop, Elder Lingyuan's nephew, named Mu Ci. He's only seven years old this year, two years younger than you, Nana."
“I confirmed with that bishop that her grandson absorbed a soul ring that was over six hundred years old when he was in his first ring, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to absorb a soul ring that is over a thousand years old when he is in his second ring.”
Hu Liena was stunned when she heard this, and murmured, "She's younger than me, yet she can do things I never even dared to imagine."
Suddenly, Hu Liena developed a strong interest in this genius little brother and quickly asked Bibi Dong:
"Teacher, may I meet this little boy? He's the bishop's grandson. Will he come to Wuhun City to study?"
"Can I study with him then?"
Seeing the disciple's restless mind, he suddenly felt a bit annoyed and quickly shook his head slightly, saying:
"The teacher isn't too sure either. Although he is the bishop's grandson, he is not considered a member of the Spirit Hall, so he may not come to Spirit City to study."
"Moreover, according to news from the branch halls below, that child is treating sick civilians in various places, and it is speculated that he is using a mimicry cultivation method unique to him."
Hearing this, Hu Liena became even more curious and asked, "Healing commoners, does that mean he's a support-type Soul Master?"
Hu Liena grew up in an orphanage in Wuhun City with her brother, and she was deeply moved by such things. So when she heard these things, she felt even more tender towards this stranger she had never met.
Bibi Dong sighed and said helplessly to Hu Liena, "You'll have to ask him yourself later. You're only two years apart in age, so you'll definitely meet in the Soul Master Competition in the future."
"Take care of the second ring of the millennium first, then we'll talk about the rest."
Hu Liena was somewhat discouraged when Bibi Dong interrupted her thoughts, but she quickly regained her composure and put her interest in her little brother deep in her heart.
After all, you can meet your little brother later, but absorbing a spirit ring is the most important thing right now.
Bibi Dong told Hu Liena a lot about cultivation and the secrecy surrounding the secret formula, then told Hu Liena to go back and cultivate.
The empty papal palace returned to its usual silence. Bibi Dong, holding the papal scepter, stood up from her seat, her eyes coldly fixed on a corner.
"come out!"
Chapter 23 Bibi Dong's Hatred
"come out!"
Bibi Dong's cold and sharp words, carrying a massive fluctuation of soul power, echoed throughout the Papal Palace.
The words fell.
An incredibly burly, blond old man emerged from behind a pillar, casting a large shadow. If you looked closely, you could vaguely see a giant golden crocodile roaring to the sky on his body.
"I never expected that the Second Elder of the Spirit Hall would do something like eavesdropping."
When Bibi Dong saw the burly figure who came out, her tone was full of mockery.
Golden Crocodile Douluo looked towards the direction of the Pope's throne, ignoring Bibi Dong's mockery, and said in a low voice, "Bibi Dong, don't forget to send a portion of cultivation supplies to Heaven Dou City."
Hearing this commanding tone, Bibi Dong's emotions became increasingly difficult to suppress, and dark purple waves flickered deep in her eyes, which were like tangible resentment.
"Hehe, what, does that exceptionally talented young lady also need something like this to help her?"
The papal scepter beneath her jade hand emitted a subtle, distorting sound, revealing its owner's suppressed anger.
Mentioning her daughter, who was far away in Tiandou City on a mission, would undoubtedly reopen Bibi Dong's deep-seated wounds.
Golden Crocodile Douluo gave the other party a deep look, and then, as if he hadn't heard Bibi Dong's voice, he slowly walked out of the hall.
"Bibi Dong, this is not a request, but a notification!"
"Also, the High Priest said that the little fellow who presented the secret recipe deserves a great reward, so let's choose a soul bone from the Spirit Hall's treasury."
"If that child reveals his second ring of the Thousand-Year Spirit in public, the Spirit Hall will step in to explain and eliminate the danger."
Bibi Dong grew angrier as she listened, and her anger became increasingly difficult to suppress. What did she, the Pope, really mean to them?
His magnificent papal robes billowed, and his soul power, imbued with the aura of death, surged in the air. His killing intent was immense, and he wanted to kill the person in front of him on the spot.
But Bibi Dong knew in her heart that she was no match for Golden Crocodile Douluo at all, as she was currently restricted by the Rakshasa God Test.
Bibi Dong took a few deep breaths, suppressing the surging evil thoughts in her heart, her chest heaving rapidly.
Watching the Golden Crocodile Douluo's retreating figure, a shrill voice squeezed out from his throat: "My affairs are none of your business, get out! Get out!"
However, after saying what he needed to say, Golden Crocodile Douluo used his soul power to fly out of the Papal Palace, and he didn't hear Bibi Dong's last roar very clearly.
Bang!
Bibi Dong threw the papal scepter aside, and the neatly arranged government documents on the table were swept onto the floor of the hall.
Countless purplish-black auras emanated from his body, turning the once bright hall into a hellish scene.
Bibi Dong knelt on the ground without any regard for her image. Her fair skin was covered with purplish-black veins, and her originally pinkish-purple eyes were now bloodshot.
Two enormous phantoms of demonic spiders loomed behind them, their throats emitting venomous roars.
"Angel!!!"
The back mountain, the offering hall.
The Hall of Offerings is far less luxurious than the Papal Palace, but in terms of historical charm, no other building in Martial Soul City can compare with it.
There are seven prayer cushions in the main hall, with three on each side of the cushion under the angel statue as the boundary, and six people are currently seated there.
Golden Crocodile Douluo flew into the main hall and bowed to the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged under the angel statue.
"Brother, I've already spoken to Bibi Dong about this, but I can't guarantee she'll carry it out without hesitation."
Qian Daoliu, standing beneath the statue, opened his eyes, his brow furrowing slightly. He pondered, "Jin E, we're all on the same side, so let's skip this formality."
"However, what you said is also a problem. Their relationship with their mother was not good to begin with, so how could she do something like this?"
Qian Daoliu pondered for a moment, then spoke to the white-haired youth in the first seat on the left.
"Fifth brother, go to the warehouse and get some supplies, then deliver them to Xiaoxue in Tiandou City."
The young and spirited Fifth Offering Light Feather Douluo immediately stood up, his ageless face filled with a look of relief.
"No problem, brother, I'll go right now."
Qian Daoliu looked at Guangling Douluo in this state, his face filled with helplessness.
However, he also understood that not everyone enjoyed sitting in meditation, and sighed, saying:
