Next second, thousands of flying insects flew out from the Sun Flower bushes, and many strange-looking creatures on the ground quickly fled. Obviously, these were Soul Beasts that cultivated with the help of the Sun Flowers.
"Those are mutated Fire-Light dual-attribute Slimes and Sun Sacred Beetles. I just don't know if their age is suitable, whether I can wait until I reach the Great Soul Master and Soul Elder levels..."
Upon seeing the two types of Soul Beasts mixed in, Xu Yang, who was originally lying on the tree quietly observing, instantly straightened up, his eyes wide. He didn't expect to see these two types of Soul Beasts here.
Slimes, an extremely common elemental Spirit, with a quality equivalent to Blue Silver Grass among plants, are mostly Water attribute and very common. Due to their own characteristics, they are extremely prone to mutation, becoming Slimes of other attributes, so this type of Soul Beast can have any attribute.
But even so, the Slime's attack methods are still very simple and very trash.
However, Slimes have a characteristic that can be inherited as a Soul Skill by weapon Spirits, which is their own splitting and merging characteristic. This characteristic is the foundation for Slimes' survival. As long as the core is still there, they can recover in a short time.
After weapon Spirit and elemental Spirit Soul Masters absorb Slime Soul Rings, they will 100% obtain the splitting Soul Skill. Especially elemental Spirit Soul Masters will 100% inherit this characteristic of Slimes.
The Soul Skill is also very simple, which is to divide their own weapon Spirit from one into two, and from two into four, constantly splitting, and after splitting, they can still merge back into one.
The Sun Sacred Beetle is much more famous than Slimes. It is a rare high-level insect Soul Beast, very good at shaping Soul Power. Its most famous move is to condense a Sacred Sword on the horn on its head, which can even ignore the defense of 罡 Qi and stab at the enemy from the air at lightning speed. Basically, Soul Beasts and Soul Masters of the same level cannot dodge it.
This type of Soul Beast can grant elemental Soul Masters weapon-type Soul Skills similar to the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, which are generally Sacred Swords.
When Xu Yang saw the introduction of this Soul Beast in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he guessed that Qian Renxue's Sacred Sword should have been taken from this Soul Beast. In his opinion, the essence of this Soul Skill should be the condensation and shaping of Soul Skills, because some Sun Sacred Beetles do not condense Sacred Swords, but condense a set of armor around their bodies. From this, it can be seen that the use of this Soul Skill mainly depends on the user.
This is also the second and third Soul Rings he chose for himself after reading the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's collection of books. He originally thought of asking the sect disciples to explore the traces of these two Soul Beasts when he was about to break through, but he didn't expect to see these two Soul Beasts just after hunting the first Soul Ring.
Just as Xu Yang was shocked, Ning Haiyan's figure had already arrived above the golden-edged Sun Flower. He grabbed the Sun Flower's stem with his left hand, pulled it hard, and directly pulled it out by the roots. Then he turned around and rushed towards Xu Yang's direction.
Plant-type Soul Beasts have basically the same characteristics as plants, and their vitality is very amazing. Even if the roots are separated from the soil, they will not lose their lives in a short time. This is also the reason for Ning Haiyan's rudeness.
After Ning Haiyan left, the Sun Flower sea, which had originally closed its buds, bloomed again.
"Young Master, kill it and absorb the Soul Ring! I will protect you by the side!"
Ning Haiyan threw the Sun Flower of suitable age in front of Xu Yang and instructed him.
Hearing this, Xu Yang nodded, took out a dagger from the Storage Ring, and chopped the roots of the Sun Flower vigorously. For plants, the roots are the source of life. If the roots rot, the plant will die sooner or later. This also applies to plant-type Soul Beasts, at least before ten thousand years.
After chopping the roots, Xu Yang found that the golden-edged Sun Flower was still not dead, and couldn't help but sigh at its vitality. He casually slashed again, cutting off its main stem, and then ended its life.
Suddenly, a dark yellow Soul Ring floated out, floating above the corpse of the Sun Flower.
Xu Yang quickly put away the dagger, sat cross-legged on the ground, calmed his mind, summoned his Spirit, and began to guide and absorb the Soul Ring according to the method recorded in the Meditation Method.
As the Soul Ring was placed on the Sun Spirit, Xu Yang immediately felt a huge amount of energy pouring into his body. This energy was hot and violent, and it began to run around in his body as soon as it entered, trying to destroy his body.
Fortunately, he had swallowed Whale Rubber and had been consciously training his body, so his physical fitness far exceeded that of Soul Masters of the same level. After entering meditation, he used his own Soul Power and Spiritual Power to guide it, and this energy was still within his tolerance range.
In the original book, Yu Xiaogang was able to study the existence of some meridians. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Meditation Method has been passed down for thousands of years, and naturally there is also research on this aspect. Although it may not be as thorough as Chinese medicine and ancient martial arts, the mainstream meridians used for cultivation and applied Soul Skills are still recorded, and the simplest cycle can be formed.
Now Xu Yang is using his own Soul Power to transfer this energy and run it along these meridians, constantly digesting this energy.
He doesn't want to study the meridians too much. That is the accumulation of nearly ten thousand years of human research in China. He can't study it all in just a few years, but he doesn't have to worry, because he once heard a theory that he thought was very reasonable, that is, water overflows when it is full.
The Dantian is the dam for storing water, and the meridians are the river channels for discharging water. When the Soul Power fills the dam, the excess Soul Power will naturally flow along these river channels. When enough Soul Power accumulates in the river channels, it will naturally dredge the originally blocked river channels. At that time, the meridians of the whole body will be completely unblocked. This is the so-called water overflows when it is full theory.
So he needs to focus more on the Soul Power itself and its application, rather than wasting time on the meridians.
Perhaps because the compatibility between the Sun Spirit and the Sun Flower Soul Beast is very high, even if it has seven hundred years of cultivation, it has not caused much damage to his body. The process was exceptionally smooth and did not take much time at all.
Boom!
As the Soul Power was completely absorbed, Xu Yang only felt that the Soul Power in his Dantian became more abundant and stronger, turning from a small stream into a winding river; the Sun Soul Power that had only been converted a little also increased to ten percent.
Success!
Xu Yang was overjoyed!
He not only successfully absorbed the first Soul Ring, but his own Soul Power was also approaching the Sun Spirit.
Moreover, his body was also becoming stronger under the tempering of the Sun Soul Power, a power of extreme Yang and strength, comparable to a Battle Soul Master at the Soul Elder level.
Most importantly, he instinctively felt that he could attract and gather the power of the Sun within a hundred meters. Although he couldn't condense it into a tangible form, it would definitely be no problem to assist in cultivation, and even the consumption of the first Soul Skill felt very small.
When he got up, he only felt full of power, and killing a cow with one punch was a piece of cake.
However, he also knew that this was an illusion caused by the sudden surge of power, and he didn't really have such strength.
