Seven days later.
Deep within the manor.
Beneath the bamboo pavilion, Lin Rong flipped through the thin booklet in his hands:
"Exploding Ring is the ultimate profound meaning of our sect's divine skill, the 'Great Sumeru Hammer'.
Upon execution, it allows the user to fully release the power of their Spirit Rings, instantly enhancing their attack power and generating immense strength far exceeding their original capabilities.
The higher the quality and age of the Spirit Ring, the greater the power released during the Exploding Ring.
As a consequence, after one use, the Spirit Master will lose all their Spirit Rings for three days, with only Soul Power remaining. It takes three days to gradually recover.
Furthermore, after using the Exploding Ring once, at least thirty-six days must pass before it can be used again, otherwise, the Spirit Rings may be truly destroyed.
Heirs of the Clear Sky Sect must remember this.
Exploding Ring is a desperate skill, extremely dangerous to use.
If not controlled properly, the user may be consumed by the energy generated by the Exploding Ring.
The stronger the user's physical fitness, the lower the risk.
As a precaution, it is recommended to use the Exploding Ring only after possessing at least three Spirit Bones of fifty thousand years or more.
Finally, the Great Sumeru Hammer is a secret technique not to be taught to others in our sect, it must never be revealed to outsiders. Remember! Remember! Remember!
Below is the cultivation method for the Exploding Ring...
Rustle~ Rustle~
The sound of pages turning echoed softly in the quiet courtyard.
The booklet was thin, and in a short time, Lin Rong finished reading it.
"So this is the cultivation method for the Exploding Ring. Simple, brutal, truly befitting of what that old scoundrel Tang Chen researched."
"Such astonishing talent, what a pity..."
In the original work, among all the natives of the Douluo Continent.
Only Tang Chen and Bibi Dong truly stood at the pinnacle of cultivation talent.
Bibi Dong needs no further explanation.
Just the fact that her daughter, Qian Renxue, who did not fully inherit her cultivation talent, could qualify for the Angel Nine Trials, indirectly reflects how high Bibi Dong's cultivation talent was.
Tang Chen, through his own power, cultivated his Soul Power to level ninety-nine, and he reached level ninety-nine three years earlier than the first generation Sea God.
His talent was even higher than Bibi Dong's.
It's a shame that such a person, who had the potential to create his own divine position and ascend to the Divine Realm, was born on the Douluo Continent.
The 'love-brain syndrome' lurked deep within the hearts of most natives on the continent, activating whenever the need arose.
And Tang Chen was so unlucky that he met Bo Saixi at the worst possible time, and they fell in love with each other.
In order to quickly become a god and gain the qualification to marry Bo Saixi, Tang Chen abandoned the time-consuming and labor-intensive method of creating his own divine position and turned to seek existing divine positions to inherit.
When Tang Chen finally found the inheritance of the Asura God's divine position, he was disturbed by the Rakshasa God's divine sense. During the process of the eighth trial of Asura, his mind became lost, and he was parasitized by the Dark Gold Nine-Headed Bat King, thus falling into the King of Slaughter.
If Tang Chen's temperament had been like Qian Daoliu's, valuing his family business and heritage over love, he wouldn't have ended up in such a regrettable state in the original work.
It's no wonder that all members of the Tang family in Douluo are love-brained; they have an ancestor who is the ultimate love-brain.
Returning his thoughts to the matter at hand, Lin Rong reread the booklet recording the Exploding Ring.
"At least three Spirit Bones of fifty thousand years or more are needed to ensure the user's safety."
"Three Spirit Bones, I only have two now, and that includes my external Spirit Bone. Moreover, the age of these two Spirit Bones has only just reached four thousand years, which is still a long way from fifty thousand years!"
"As for Grandpa Yu, one Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Bone is equivalent to two, and he's only one Spirit Bone of fifty thousand years or more away from meeting this condition."
"The Wisdom Head Bone, I still need six years to obtain it."
"Sigh, time is truly long!"
Lin Rong looked up at the distant sky, his thoughts drifting away.
...
Two and a half months later.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy of Spirit Masters, volcanic mimic cultivation ground.
"Finally broke through."
In the crater, Ma Hongjun ended his meditation cultivation, a look of excitement on his face.
"At only nine years and one month old, my Soul Power has broken through to level thirty. With such a record, besides Duke, no one should be faster than me!"
However, Ma Hongjun was unaware that Ning Rongrong, having absorbed two Ten Thousand Year Spirit Bones consecutively, had already broken through to level thirty before him.
Even without Ning Rongrong, there were still the successive holders of the Six-winged Angel Martial Soul from the Spirit Hall's Qian family.
Because the Six-winged Angel Martial Soul has a innate full Soul Power of twenty, even if their aptitude is somewhat lacking, after continuously absorbing their first and second Spirit Rings, their Soul Power would directly break through to level twenty-three at the very least.
The remaining seven levels of Soul Power only required breaking through a little over two levels of Soul Power each year to reach level thirty before the age of nine.
Let's take Qian Renxue as an example.
In the original work, she was a little over thirty years old with around level seventy Soul Power.
Thirty years minus the six years for Martial Soul awakening, level seventy-one Soul Power minus the innate twenty levels and the seven levels from the seven Spirit Rings.
In twenty-four years, Qian Renxue cultivated a total of forty-four levels of Soul Power.
This averages out to 1.8 levels of Soul Power per year.
However, this was because Qian Renxue's cultivation was delayed due to her undercover mission.
Before the age of nine, when Qian Renxue was not on her undercover mission, her Soul Power increase could not have been less than two levels per year.
Therefore, it was absolutely certain that Qian Renxue would break through level thirty before she was nine years old.
Lin Rong himself also dared to claim a record unprecedented in history because he broke through level thirty at the age of seven years and nine months.
"I'm level thirty now, I can get my first thousand-year Spirit Ring, how can I not be a little excited?"
Ma Hongjun waved his hands excitedly, then seemed to remember something and muttered softly:
"Also, the Duke said that after I reach level thirty, he has an important mission for me. I wonder what it is."
"Oh, I can't think of it, never mind. I'll know after I return from hunting spirits."
Ma Hongjun scratched his head in a simple and honest manner and left the volcanic Mimic Cultivation Ground to find Xu Pan at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy of Spirit Masters to tell him the good news.
"You broke through to level thirty?"
Xu Pan put down the military strategy books in his hands.
Because talking loudly was forbidden in the library, Xu Pan communicated with Ma Hongjun through Soul Power transmission.
"Good boy, a Soul Elder at just over nine years old, you've really made something of yourself!"
"Uncle Xu, look, I've broken through to level thirty. When are we leaving for the Spirit Beast Forest to obtain a Spirit Ring?"
"Look how eager you are. Rest assured, the Duke himself is more eager than I am for you to break through to level thirty."
"So, the Spirit Beast you need for your third Spirit Ring has already been captured alive and is being kept in the Duke's manor."
"That's great! What kind of Spirit Beast is it? And what's its age?"
"Your third Spirit Ring is a Seven-Colored Profound Sound Bird with over two thousand two hundred years of cultivation."
"Seven-Colored Profound Sound Bird? What kind of Spirit Beast is that? Is it powerful?"
"The Seven-Colored Profound Sound Bird is an extremely rare avian Spirit Beast. Not only does it possess a fairly concentrated Phoenix bloodline, but its abilities are also the rarest and most unusual: music."
"Although the Seven-Colored Profound Sound Bird is not a fire-attribute Spirit Beast, Phoenix Cry is a talent that all phoenixes possess, and your Fire Phoenix Martial Soul is no exception."
"Therefore, even though this Seven-Colored Profound Sound Bird is not a fire-attribute Spirit Beast, it has extremely high compatibility with your Fire Phoenix Martial Soul."
