Subsequently, Gui Mei looked at Evil Moon and Flame, then once again said, "Xu Sheng, Evil Moon and Flame don't look too optimistic either, should you also help them?"
Although I don't know exactly what Xu Sheng did before, it seems now that he indeed has a way to help Hulena and others absorb their Soul Rings!
Xu Sheng just casually replied, "Evil Moon and Flame should be able to endure it, don't be fooled by their furrowed brows, but if you observe carefully, you'll find their bodies are very stable!"
"Obviously, this level of pain isn't enough to disrupt their Soul Ring absorption!"
Upon hearing this, Gui Mei also observed carefully and found, as the former said, Evil Moon and Flame's bodies were exceptionally stable, showing no signs of trembling despite the pain!
"Looks like I was worrying too much."
"I just didn't expect Xu Sheng you to be so knowledgeable in Soul Ring absorption!"
Xu Sheng simply smiled and didn't explain further...
After all, he had been through so much, these matters weren't anything special...
Gui Mei's eyes turned and he asked again, "Then Xu Sheng, according to your estimates, how long do you think His Holiness and the others will take to finish absorbing their Soul Rings?"
Xu Sheng made a brief evaluation, and then responded, "They're likely to require another hour, why, Elder Gui, is there something urgent you need to go do?"
Gui Mei did not deny but smiled awkwardly, "It's not something urgent, just some tasks commanded by Your Holiness."
Xu Sheng nodded slightly, understanding the other's thoughts, and immediately suggested, "I see, since it's a task assigned by Your Holiness, Elder Gui, you should go ahead and take care of it, I'll manage things here."
Gui Mei gave Xu Sheng a grateful look, "Alright, I'll leave it to you Xu Sheng then."
He didn't hesitate further and swiftly left...
...
Not long after!
Hulena took a deep breath and slowly opened her beautiful eyes....
"I've finally completed absorbing this Soul Ring. The spiritual impact from the thousand-year Soul Ring was really a bit too much for me."
Xu Sheng walked up to her and softly said, "Nana, congratulations, it seems you've successfully absorbed your Soul Ring, stepping into Soul Elder."
Hulena stood up, her water-like eyes gazing at the former with immense gratitude, "Xu Sheng, thank you for your help, or else I fear this Soul Ring absorption process would have been forcibly interrupted."
"It could even have resulted in a regression of cultivation level."
Xu Sheng continued to inquire, "As long as I could help you, that's good. Is there any discomfort in your body?"
Hulena shook her head, "No, I feel great now, and my overall strength has noticeably increased."
"But... I'm somewhat curious, during Soul Ring absorption, shouldn't Soul Masters not be disturbed by outsiders? How did Xu Sheng manage it?"
At that time, she felt that her body and Sea of Consciousness were enveloped by a certain power, obtaining some reinforcement!
Thus she was able to withstand the spiritual impact brought by the thousand-year Soul Ring!
Xu Sheng waved his hand, "Just some small means, mainly your consciousness was firm, otherwise I couldn't have helped much!"
Hulena nodded thoughtfully, not continuing to ask, "I see."
Noticing Evil Moon and Flame's aura changing, Xu Sheng was somewhat surprised, "It seems Flame and Evil Moon are about to awaken too."
The time it took them to absorb the Soul Ring was faster than imagined!
Sure enough, soon after his words, Evil Moon and Flame also gradually opened their eyes, awakening...
"Truly worthy of a thousand-year Soul Ring, after absorbing it, it feels incredibly exhilarating."
"Yes, I can intensely feel my strength is markedly a level stronger than before absorption, no wonder it was Xu Sheng who specially selected the soul beasts for us."
Hulena exclaimed joyfully, "Brother, Flame, your absorption speed was slower than mine this time!"
Flame shrugged, "Can't be helped, after all, Nana as the Martial Soul Hall's Holy Daughter, your talent among us is the most outstanding!"
Evil Moon nodded in agreement, "Indeed, my sister being more excellent than me as her brother is only normal!"
Hulena's face reddened, "What are you talking about!"
"Xu Sheng is still here, compared to him, our talents don't even matter."
Laughing at this, Flame and Evil Moon gave Xu Sheng a glance...
"This shouldn't be put in comparison, right? Xu Sheng is just a monster...no, what I mean is Xu Sheng's talent doesn't seem humanly possible, to compare with him is just asking for trouble!"
"Exactly, Innate Soul Power Level Ninety, if word gets out about this, it would be considered a rumor, since across the continent, even Innate full Soul Power Soul Masters are rare!"
Xu Sheng felt amused, though he didn't think they were wrong...
"Flame, Evil Moon, stop talking about me, tell me about yourselves, how do you feel?"
Evil Moon quickly reacted, "Very good, this Soul Ring is exceptionally compatible with my Martial Soul, like it was tailor-made."
Flame praised as well, "Mine too, perfectly adapts, in the future, if only all the Soul Rings could have Xu Sheng help us choose!"
Hulena immediately countered, "Brother, Flame, what are you saying, those words are rather shameless, aren't they?"
Next time, they must hunt their Soul Rings relying on their own strength, rather than constantly depending on Xu Sheng!
"Hehe, just kidding, how could I be so shameless, troubling Xu Sheng every time!"
"Hm, but next time, we can definitely request Xu Sheng to recommend some worth-absorbing soul beasts, then hunt them ourselves."
Hulena paused, feeling it made sense, looked at Xu Sheng with some anticipation, "Hey, this seems like a good idea, Xu Sheng, you wouldn't mind, would you?"
Xu Sheng agreed without hesitation, "Of course, it's no big deal."
"Since everyone has absorbed their Soul Rings, why don't we talk about what Soul Skills we obtained?"
From their previous tone, it seemed the Soul Skills obtained weren't simple!
Upon hearing this, Flame immediately raised his chin proudly, "Ahem, since you want to know, Xu Sheng, I'll speak first."
"The Soul Skill I obtained is......"
....
After listening to each of them introduce their Soul Skills, Xu Sheng nodded, "Hm, it seems this time, the Soul Skills are very suited to all of you, compensating for the shortcomings of the Martial Soul!"
"However, didn't you forget something?"
Hulena was a bit puzzled, "Xu Sheng, I don't quite understand, could you explain simply?"
Xu Sheng offered another explanation, "I remember each of you still has a soul bone that hasn't been absorbed, after reaching Soul Elder, you can try absorbing it!"
The absorption of soul bones isn't filled with the same risks as Soul Rings, even as Soul Elders, there's a high probability of successfully absorbing them!
