Chapter 236: Chapter 236: A Little Bit? More Like a Billion Times! Fourth Soul Skill
"Wait… wait a minute?"
Ning Rongrong suddenly exclaimed, looking at Chen Xin. "Grandpa Sword, what did you just say?"
"Dai Chengfeng is already at the peak of Soul Elder?"
"And he's only absorbing a 35,000-year spirit ring for his fourth ring?"
As she spoke, her voice unconsciously rose several notches, her face filled with shock.
After all, as the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, although she was usually spoiled and willful, she was well-versed in basic knowledge about soul masters.
Chen Xin didn't reply but gave a heavy nod, his gaze still fixed intently on Dai Chengfeng.
He was now extremely curious whether Dai Chengfeng could successfully absorb the spirit ring and create a new chapter in the history of Douluo Continent.
"Heavens!"
Ning Rongrong gazed at Dai Chengfeng, who sat cross-legged, his golden hair swaying gently under the influence of his soul power.
"He doesn't look much older than me, but…"
Ning Rongrong bit her red lips slightly, her eyes sparkling with admiration. "Not only is he kind and handsome, but he's also incredibly strong!"
Meanwhile, as everyone discussed…
Dai Chengfeng was immersed in his own consciousness.
The residual resentment from the Gale Void Tiger within the spirit ring had rushed into Dai Chengfeng's spiritual sea as the spirit ring fused with his body.
It radiated with unwillingness and murderous intent, attempting to exact revenge on Dai Chengfeng.
Dai Chengfeng looked at the silver-white Gale Void Tiger in his spiritual sea.
He had long heard that absorbing a spirit ring over ten thousand years would result in an assault of the spirit beast's spiritual resentment.
Fortunately, his mental strength had increased significantly—just a little bit—after fusing with the head spirit bone imbued with the Mind Condensing Wisdom Skull Bone.
Now, there was no need to worry too much.
A little bit? Try a billion times!
The Gale Void Tiger had originally planned to use its instinctive resentment and hatred to take revenge on Dai Chengfeng.
But now, it stared blankly at the crimson blood sea surrounding it, composed entirely of Kill intent.
And in the center of the blood sea stood the manifestation of Dai Chengfeng's consciousness—a white tiger surrounded by gold-blue lightning, wielding immense destructive power. A single swipe of its claw dwarfed the Gale Void Tiger's resentment.
???
Although the Gale Void Tiger no longer possessed full intelligence and was merely a mindless residue of resentment, it still trembled uncontrollably with despair.
It knew that revenge was hopeless.
Crap!!!
The next moment, Dai Chengfeng's overwhelming spiritual power crushed down mercilessly. The Gale Void Tiger's resentment didn't even have time to resist before being obliterated and swallowed by the blood sea.
Not even a ripple was left behind.
Burp~
Dai Chengfeng's consciousness let out a satisfied burp.
The next second, his soul power reached Level 41, and beneath his feet appeared a black 35,000-year fourth spirit ring.
At the same time, Dai Chengfeng understood his fourth soul skill: Dimension Slash!
The effect was simple…
Cut through everything, divide space and dimensions—hence the name Dimension Slash!
But its power was absolutely one of the most tyrannical in existence!
If before, Dai Chengfeng could rely on the extreme sharpness of his ultimate metal attribute to cut through all tangible objects…
Now!
Even intangible things like space and dimensions could be severed in two.
More terrifying still…
This effect ignored the influence of soul power!
No wonder even Chen Xin's Seven Kills Sword Qi could be effortlessly severed by the Gale Void Tiger's silver-green Dimension Slash.
For a moment, Dai Chengfeng slowly opened his eyes, which were filled with joy.
"I did it!"
Bibi Dong saw Dai Chengfeng open his eyes and nodded slightly, her gaze revealing a hint of approval.
Though she had long known that Dai Chengfeng's physical prowess was extraordinary and his mental strength had reached the terrifying level of a Spirit Sage, theoretically making the refinement of a 35,000-year spirit ring completely feasible…
Seeing him achieve it so effortlessly, creating a new historical precedent for the fourth spirit ring's maximum limit, still left her somewhat awestruck.
It seemed that Dai Chengfeng was indeed an exceptionally rare genius, one who could rival even her!
No wonder he had caught the attention of the gods so early on.
Sss!
Ning Fengyuan's eyes widened, his mouth agape. It took him a while to snap out of his daze.
Chen Xin also looked at Dai Chengfeng with disbelief, his heart filled with shock:
I originally thought he was taking a huge risk, possibly even risking his life, but I never expected…
This kid actually pulled it off!
And so effortlessly… What a monstrous prodigy!
Meanwhile, Ning Rongrong hopped excitedly over to Dai Chengfeng, her face beaming with a radiant smile as she congratulated him:
"Dai Chengfeng, congratulations on successfully absorbing the spirit ring!"
"How did you become so powerful at such a young age?"
"Can you teach me?"
Dai Chengfeng looked at Ning Rongrong, whose eyes were brimming with anticipation, and simply smiled faintly, replying indifferently:
"Just luck."
After saying this, he was about to go share his joy with Bibi Dong when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"What's that?"
As the Sky Piercing Halberd absorbed the flesh and blood of the Gale Void Tiger completely, a silvery arm bone shimmering with a star-like brilliance floated quietly in place.
Under the sunlight, it glowed with a mysterious light.
"A spirit bone?!"
Dai Chengfeng's eyes sparkled with excitement.
"There's actually a spirit bone?"
Beside him, Ning Rongrong and Ning Fengyuan looked at Dai Chengfeng, their eyes instantly filled with envy.
After all, this wasn't yet the era of Douluo II; in Douluo I, spirit bones were incredibly precious treasures.
Even the wealthy Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect couldn't afford to outfit everyone with a full set of spirit bones.
Moreover, this was a top-tier spirit bone from the Gale Void Tiger, likely possessing spatial abilities.
Bibi Dong, however, looked at the spirit bone without any surprise and nodded. "It's a right arm bone."
"Your luck is quite good, Chengfeng."
She had sensed it earlier while Dai Chengfeng was absorbing the spirit ring but refrained from speaking to avoid interrupting him.
Dai Chengfeng smiled and nodded. "My luck does seem pretty good."
With that, Dai Chengfeng felt the dense spatial energy emanating from the spirit bone before him. "Teacher, I think I can absorb this spirit bone."
Though Dai Chengfeng didn't know the specific abilities of this spirit bone, he was certain it belonged to the spatial attribute.
Time may pass, but space reigns supreme.
This spirit bone was undoubtedly a top-tier right arm bone, with its only downside being that it hadn't reached a hundred thousand years.
But as long as it wasn't a skull or torso bone, Dai Chengfeng didn't care too much about its age.
After all, if worst came to worst, he could follow Tang San's example and find a way to evolve this spirit bone to a hundred thousand years in the future.
If this spirit bone couldn't evolve, he could always follow Tang Hao's example and replace it outright.
As for needing to sever his arm?
Well, conveniently, Dai Chengfeng had plenty of immortal herbs at his disposal and could easily concoct a pill to regenerate a severed limb. He hadn't done so before simply because there was no need.
