Chapter 50: Tang San's Ancestor... (Part 2)

  Wang Dong was the one who bore the least pressure among all the students, he and Huo Yuhao were too familiar with each other, and they also had a soul fusion, no matter what abilities Huo Yuhao used, he would not feel too threatened. Hearing Wang say this, he couldn't help but curiously ask: "Teacher Wang, what color is that divine-level soul ring?"

  Wang Yan said, "I don't know either. According to historical records, the ninth soul ring of Tang San's ancestor, the Blue Silver Emperor, was blue and gold in color. And his second martial soul, the Sky-Sealing Hammer, also had a ninth soul ring with a different color from other soul rings, which was dark red and gold. It is very likely that it was also a divine-level soul ring. From this, we can infer that the colors of divine-level soul rings will change according to different soul masters."

  Wang Dongdao said: "Didn't you just say that the tenth soul ring would be a divine-level soul ring? How come Tang San's ancestor had a ninth soul ring that was also divine?"

  Wang Yan smiled slightly and said, "This is where the legendary soul beast of the Douluo Continent comes in. This secret is not even known by many teachers in our academy. The legendary soul beast was called the Deep Sea Devil Whale King, and it's said that its cultivation reached nearly a million years. Whether or not it exceeded a million years, no one knows for sure; the records only say that after Tang San's ancestor absorbed this soul ring, it combined with his own abilities to become a divine-level soul ring of dark red gold color. Another thing to note is that Tang San's ancestor was able to turn it into a divine-level soul ring at the nine-ring level because he had already broken through the peak and reached an unparalleled 100th level of soul power, becoming a god and possessing the tenth soul ring of the Blue Silver Emperor, only then did he have the strength to kill the Deep Sea Devil Whale King."

  Huoyue Hao had already been stunned when Wang Yan said that Tang San's first ancestor had a divine-level soul ring. Immediately afterwards, he heard news about another possible appearance of a million-year-old soul beast, and was even more shocked beyond measure.

  At this time, he couldn't help but ask: "Teacher Wang, has the Deep Sea Devil Whale King really reached a cultivation of one million years?"

  Wang Yan shook his head and said, "Actually, it's like this. According to the research of countless powerful soul masters on the mainland over the years, the limit of a soul beast is 100,000 years. When they reach 100,000 years, they will encounter a catastrophe similar to a great calamity. At that time, they can either choose to break through the limit or choose to transform into a human being at their own risk. I mentioned earlier that any soul beast that can break through the limit is called a super soul beast. However, they have to face such a great calamity every ten years. After breaking through the limit ten times, they will be close to the existence of a god. If they can still make a leap like a carp jumping over the dragon gate, then they will truly become gods. However, at least in my knowledge of history, soul beasts have not been able to take this step. The Deep Sea Devil Whale King is no exception. Therefore, whether or not it has 100,000 years of cultivation, as long as it has not become a god, it is still just a super soul beast. Of course, that is also a terrifying super soul beast that only a god-level master can subdue. Without the strength of Tang San's ancestors, even if one kills the Deep Sea Devil Whale King and other super soul beasts, they will still be unable to fully absorb their soul rings and soul bones."

  Huo Yuhao asked: "Teacher Wang, when Tang San's ancestors became gods and left this world, were there any other martial souls besides the Blue Silver Emperor and the Skydome Hammer?"

  Wang Yan shook his head and said, "There shouldn't be. In the final great war between Tang San's first ancestor and the Wu Soul Hall, he faced two opponents who were also God-level strongmen after becoming gods. According to historical records, there was no mention of Tang San's first ancestor having a third Wu Soul. Yu Hao, why are you asking this?"

  Huo Yu Hao scratched his head and said: "I was just casually asking, the Divine level is too far away from us. I was just wondering, after reaching the Divine level, will there be a third Martial Soul."

  Wang Yan smiled slightly, "Your idea is good. Our research on the Martial Soul is also about exploring more secrets. Bold assumptions, careful verification. Alright, stop now."

  His last sentence was directed at Huo Yu Hao, the other students only felt a sudden lightness and relaxation, causing their internal soul power to surge violently in waves, an indescribable comfort. It wasn't until now that they remembered they were still under the pressure of the million-year-old soul ring simulated by Huo Yu Hao.

  Wang Yan looked at the students who were relieved and smiled: "Whether it's the pressure of the soul beast or the pressure brought by the soul master, it's actually a kind of spiritual shock. If your mental strength is solid enough, no matter how strong the pressure is, you will be like the rocks on the beach, unmoved. Just now, your minds were attracted by my story, and you didn't feel Rain Hao's pressure, did you? Go back and think about it carefully, and prepare well for the upgrade assessment. Alright, that's all for this afternoon. Tomorrow we'll continue with this kind of practice."

  Including Huo Yu Hao, every student looked at Wang Yan with a gaze that revealed their admiration. Indeed, in terms of actual content teaching, Zhou Wei was no match for Wang Yan, this scholar-type teacher. However, when it came to controlling the students, Zhou Wei was much stronger. The two of them serving as co-class advisors could be said to complement each other, and at least over the past year, there were no students in the class with a cultivation level lower than two rings.

  It was still early from finishing dinner, so Huo Yu Hao and Wang Dong directly returned to their dormitory. Under Huo Yu Hao's strong request, they immediately began cultivating.

  Today, Huo Yu Hao wasn't being diligent because he had something to ask Tian Meng Bing Xian, and he was always with Wang Dong. Only when he entered a meditative state could he calm down and communicate with Tian Meng Bing Xian.

  The power of Hao Dong circulated within the two, and the dense soul force fluctuated rapidly upwards. The cultivation of both had a qualitative leap, and the advantage of the fusion of soul force in terms of cultivation speed became more apparent.

  "Tianmeng Ge, Tianmeng Ge." After entering a meditative state, Huo Yu Hao controlled the circulation of his soul power while calling out to Tianmeng Bingcan.

  Soon, Tian Meng Bing Cang responded with a lazy voice, "What's going on? Is it just for that Deep Sea Devil Whale King?"

  Huo Yu Hao said: "Is it! Tian Meng brother, is that deep-sea demon whale king also a million-year soul beast?"

  "Hehe, aren't you already aware of the answer?"

  Yes, Huo Yuhao asked Wang Xian about whether Tang San's first ancestor had a third martial soul precisely to verify if the Deep Sea Devil Whale was indeed a million-year-old soul beast.

  He Yu Hao said: "So, is he really gone?"

  "I've said it before, I'm the only soul beast on this continent to have broken through the hundred million year mark. At the moment my life broke through that boundary, a feeling appeared in my heart, an indescribable feeling, but I knew, I was the first soul beast to reach that level. No exceptions. The number of soul beasts in the ocean is even greater than on land, so it's not surprising for powerful soul beasts to appear. But I can be certain, none of them have existed for a hundred million years."

  "Hao Tianmeng, then... haven't you become a god?" He still had a huge question in his mind. After he acquired the second soul ring of Lingzhu, he immediately discovered a secret. Tianmeng Bingxiao had always been hiding the true color of its first soul ring. And being lazy as it was, after Hao Yuhao gained the ability to conceal himself, it handed over this responsibility to him. The first soul ring that Tianmeng Bingxiao gave to Hao Yuhao was also his wisdom soul ring, and its color was indeed gold.

  It is completely different from the five known soul ring colors of white, yellow, purple, black and red. Just now, Wang Yan said that Tang San's ancestor had a divine-level soul ring, and Huo Yuhao immediately thought that his own Spirit Eyes' first soul ring was also a divine-level soul ring?

  "Stop dreaming, if I were to become a god, could I still be bullied by those guys in the Star Dou Great Forest? No way. The first soul ring I gave you has the foundation of a divine-level soul ring, but it's not a divine-level soul ring yet. It lacks two things: one is your own divine seal, which can only be imprinted when you have achieved divine cultivation and left your mark on it. Another is the position of divine appointment. Do you think becoming a god is that easy? Without going through countless hardships and trials, it's impossible to succeed. You're thinking about this too early. Just knowing that I'm the one and only, true hundred-million-year soul ring is enough for now. Got it?"

  "Oh." Huo Yu Hao responded, "Tian Meng Ge, don't sleep yet, I still have a question. Today I used one of the soul techniques that Bing Di added for me. How did my power suddenly become so enormous?"

  "Tian Meng Bing Yang angrily said: "Isn't this nonsense? Do you know what the Ice Emperor is? It's one of the strongest soul beasts in the world today. Your soul ring and soul bone have been taken, even if it's just a small part that was absorbed, the improvement to your physical quality is still enormous. And the two soul skills granted by the soul ring are both power-type. The terrifying power combined with extreme ice attributes is the soul skill you used today, Ice Emperor's Claw. However, remember that Ice Emperor's Claw can only exert its greatest power in close combat. As for the two skills granted by the skeletal bone, try not to use them as much as possible, because they consume too much and will make you unable to withstand it yourself. Oh, right, if you and that little guy fuse your soul powers, you should be able to barely exert a hint of power from those two soul bone skills. Actually, you should feel proud, because the person who tested you today is what you humans call a Title Douluo."

  Huo Yu Hao was shocked, "Tian Meng Ge, are you saying that Bow Teacher is..."

  Uh, I'm all confused, today seems to be Sunday, and this morning I thought it was Saturday. So, that means after 12 o'clock I'll have to update three chapters in a row! Ahhh! Hurry up and work!

  Remember to come and watch tonight, remember to rush together. That's the crucial moment for our next week's recommended list results. Anyway, everyone knows that Lao San is a man who never makes promises easily, but once he says it, he will definitely do it, right?
