Chapter 6: One Ring, Two Soul Skills
"The first soul ring in a thousand years! This..."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu hesitated. He certainly hoped that Qin Zhuo could do better, but this was a bit too risky.
Not only is it a thousand years old, the Thunderstorm Cloud Elf itself is a soul beast with violent energy, which adds to the risk.
"That's it! But before absorbing it, I need you to help me improve my lightning resistance."
Qin Zhuo said in a firm tone that although the thunder and lightning were violent, his martial soul itself had top-level thunder and lightning attributes, wasn't it just physical strength?
I'll brush it, sir!
"Alright! But let me make this clear first. If you can't absorb it, I will forcibly disconnect you from your spirit ring. Don't resist."
"I understand. I won't joke with my life. If I really can't absorb it, I will use the Dimensional Void Domain to cut off contact."
Qin Zhuo nodded and said, remembering the existence of that domain, Qian Daoliu no longer objected. He rolled up his sleeves and took Qin Zhuo to the place where the thunderstorm cloud elf was discovered before.
The Thunderstorm Cloud Elf is not a regular soul beast, but an elemental life form. Apart from instinctively reacting to the outside world, it has almost no consciousness.
Because it is an aggregate of thunder elements, its lightning energy is extremely violent, and generally no one would choose such a soul beast as their own soul ring.
On the one hand, it is difficult to hunt. It is a pure energy life, and its body is already wrapped in a large amount of lightning, making it difficult to get close to it.
On the other hand, it is difficult to absorb, and can only withstand the impact of elements. It is far less peaceful than absorbing biological soul beasts. If you are not careful, you will be seriously injured.
Soon, Qian Daoliu brought Qin Zhuo to a valley. Perhaps because of the terrain, there were thick clouds above the valley, and thunderstorms could be heard from time to time.
"Xiao Zhuo, what do you need me to do?"
The thunderstorm in the clouds was nothing to him, but it was a big problem for Qin Zhuo, so before officially hunting, Qin Zhuo needed to strengthen his body.
"I need you to continuously draw a ray of lightning to strike me..."
Qin Zhuo scratched his head, wondering why this was so strange. It made him sound like he had some serious illness.
"I understand, but is it really effective in such a short time?"
Attracting lightning isn't difficult, but isn't there enough time? Building resistance in the body isn't something that can be accomplished in a short period of time.
"Let's try it first! My martial soul is the Seraph of Judgment, and the thunder punishment is...wait...wait...wait..."
Before Qin Zhuo could finish his words, Qian Daoliu had already started to attract lightning. A bolt of lightning struck down, and his whole body twitched. He then did some street dance, with his hair standing up.
However, when Qin Zhuo's martial soul appeared, it could be clearly seen that the lightning raging on his body was being absorbed by his body.
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu was no longer polite. He sent out bolts of lightning to strike Qin Zhuo, and at the same time, he appropriately increased the power of the lightning according to his tolerance.
"Xiao Zhuo's body is very adaptable! Is it because of his martial spirit?"
An hour later, Qian Daoliu looked at Qin Zhuo, who had obviously adapted to the lightning strike, and couldn't help but sigh.
Sometimes some people's talents are really enviable.
[Ding! Proficiency extraction successful. Host's spiritual strength, physical strength, soul control, and lightning resistance have been greatly improved. Awakened passive: Lightning affinity.]
When being struck by lightning, not only is the lightning resistance improved, the body is also being tempered, and at the same time, spiritual power is used to control soul power to protect important organs. Naturally, proficiency is involved in all aspects.
After signaling Qian Daoliu to stop attracting lightning, Qin Zhuo entered into meditation to recover his soul power, while opening the panel to check his new passive skill.
[Lightning Element Affinity: Lightning attribute impact is reduced by 40%, and Lightning element concentration is increased by 50%. Lightning attribute attack is increased by 20%.] Good guy! The passive is always the god!
Qin Zhuo's eyes almost popped out when he saw this new passive skill. This was going to make him the overlord of the thunder system!
Under this passive skill, everyone else in the Thunder Element will be suppressed. The damage of others' attacks will be reduced by 40%, and your own attacks will be increased by 20%, and the casting speed will be doubled.
"Are you recovered? Do you need me to help you kill it?"
Another Kun hour passed before Qin Zhuo woke up from his meditation. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard Qian Daoliu's sarcastic words.
"Hehe... My soul power has made a slight breakthrough, which delayed me for a while..."
Qin Zhuo chuckled and said that it was normal for his soul power to increase with so much lightning energy pouring into his body.
"Hurry up! It's really troublesome to hunt a spirit ring for you. It's been three days and you're still at the first ring..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhuo didn't waste any words and directly asked Qian Daoliu to pull out the thunderstorm cloud elf wandering in the clouds.
Kill? Kill a chicken feather! Anyway, this guy only has instinctive reactions, and he is a pure energy body, so he can withstand the lightning and absorb it directly.
Seeing Qin Zhuo releasing his martial soul and directly moving the Thunderstorm Cloud Elf towards his martial soul, Qian Daoliu almost took action to stop him.
"This bastard is too messy..."
Thunder and lightning quickly surrounded Qin Zhuo, and the Seraph of Judgment, whose wings had been hidden, also revealed its original form. The thunder surrounding its wings was drawing energy from the Thunderstorm Cloud Spirit, and a ring of light appeared around the martial soul.
Seeing this, Qian Daoliu finally relaxed a little. The soul ring was already forming, which meant that Qin Zhuo's method worked. Now it depended on whether he could withstand the power of the thousand-year soul ring.
On the other hand, Qin Zhuo said that he was absorbing the Millennium Soul Ring, but he didn't feel anything. Because of his passiveness, the lightning surrounding him did not cause him any pain. The Judgment Seraph Martial Spirit also took on most of the energy pressure. The pressure from absorbing the soul ring was not as stimulating as when he first started to draw lightning to forge his body...
"Isn't this a bit of a loss? I feel like adding another thousand years wouldn't be a problem!"
Qin Zhuo was a little dumbfounded when he felt that the energy of the thundercloud elf was getting less and less, but the thought of adding another thousand years only flashed through his mind.
In the current situation, it can only be said that the passive ability is too incredible, and this kind of elemental soul beast does not have a strong independent consciousness. The energy is suppressed throughout the process, and there is no spiritual shock at all. This makes the absorption of this thousand-year soul ring seem effortless.
Qian Daoliu, who was standing by, watched the energy of the Thunderstorm Cloud Elf disappear, knowing that the absorption of the soul ring this time was over, and he finally let go of his worries.
The first soul ring in a thousand years! How many people would believe this?
But before he could be happy, the thunderclouds that had been gathering in the sky seemed to be stirred by something, and a thick bolt of lightning burst out and struck the soul ring that had just formed around Qin Zhuo's martial soul. For a moment, lightning flashed.
Qin Zhuo couldn't help but let out a muffled groan, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. When the raging thunder was about to be transmitted to him through his martial soul, the two swords of the Judgment Seraph crossed together, gathering all the thunder.
Before Qian Daoliu could react, everything was over. A deep purple soul ring spread out from under Qin Zhuo's feet, full of mystery.
Qian Daoliu, who was about to ask about the situation, saw Qin Zhuo suddenly open his eyes, and then his soul ring lit up.
"First Soul Skill: Blazing Thunder Punishment!"
The Judgment Seraph Martial Spirit held the red sword high in his right hand, and crimson thunder fell from the sky, striking Qian Daoliu fiercely.
Qian Daoliu was not annoyed and casually built a soul power barrier to resist the incoming thunder. No matter how high Qin Zhuo's talent was, it was only one ring, so naturally he could not have any impact on the 99th level Extreme Douluo.
But it wasn't over yet. The Judgement Seraph swung the white sword in his left hand, spreading out a lightning net with Qian Daoliu as the center, covering an area with a diameter of 30 meters.
"One ring, two soul skills?"
Qian Daoliu was stunned for a moment, and his soul power surged to break free from the restraints. He looked at Qin Zhuo in surprise and asked.
