Dark red light shone, and with a soft 'pop' sound, the bead shattered above Lu Feng's head.
Immediately, a dense dark golden mist poured down, enveloping his body.
The original work mentioned that any Soul Master who accepted a Black Level or higher divine trial could obtain a God Bestowed Soul Ring the first time they reached a soul power bottleneck.
For his seventh soul ring, Lu Feng had been looking forward to it for a long time.
He had even waited for a full year for this God Bestowed Soul Ring.
A hundred-thousand-year soul beast wasn't so easy to kill. Originally, he had planned to coax the little rabbit. Unexpectedly, she received her lunch box early.
The dark golden light mist, carrying a chilling intent, gradually submerged Lu Feng's body.
Rings of halos emerged, and a drop of cold sweat slid across his forehead.
If outsiders were here, they would discover that the pitch-black soul ring above Lu Feng's head had begun to overflow with traces of red light.
With a "flap," a pair of brilliant golden dragon wings unfolded, and a majestic energy field spread, instantly reaching a range of hundreds of meters.
Within the area covered by this energy, everything turned golden.
Domain!
For ordinary Soul Masters, the seventh soul ring was a qualitative leap.
With the seventh soul ring, one could release the Martial Soul Avatar and exert the strongest power of the Martial Soul itself.
But for top-tier Martial Soul possessors, the significance of the seventh soul ring was far more than this.
Because they had a probability of awakening an innate domain.
Luo Wu Pao's quality had long been upgraded to red quality. And red represented a God-level Martial Soul.
This patch of gold was the Golden Saint Dragon's innate domain—the Golden Domain.
Within the domain, the Golden Saint Dragon's strength, speed, defense, and soul power recovery ability were significantly enhanced. It contained pure sacred power, capable of purifying all negative effects.
At the same time, all enemies were suppressed, their soul power circulation speed slowed by 30%, and double suppression effect was caused on non-dragon soul beasts and Soul Masters.
Gradually, the soul ring above Lu Feng's head had completely turned blood red.
One hundred thousand years!
Absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring as the seventh soul ring; apart from Twin Spirits possessors, Lu Feng's achievement could be called unprecedented.
However, the energy of the soul ring did not stop.
The God Bestowed Soul Ring would bestow the best soul ring upon the Soul Master according to the maximum age limit they could bear.
That is to say, this soul ring could potentially surpass one hundred thousand years.
The highest known age for soul beasts on the continent was one hundred thousand years.
But Lu Feng knew that in the core circle of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Extreme North, and the ocean, there were many fierce beasts exceeding one hundred thousand years.
These soul beasts with an age of over two hundred thousand years were the true masters of the soul beast world.
Gradually, Lu Feng's body began to tremble, and an unhealthy flush appeared on the surface of his skin. It could be imagined how intense the pain he was enduring at this moment.
The range of the domain gradually converged, turning into golden scales attached to Lu Feng's body.
It looked like he was wearing a layer of armor.
Martial Soul Avatar Second Form, Avatar Armor!
Lu Feng's body was wrapped in a layer of dazzling golden-red flames, as if undergoing tempering.
His aura climbed steadily, and the surrounding air was distorted by this power.
However, this was just the beginning.
The next moment, four lights of cyan, white, red, and black burst from his brow, turning into phantoms of four divine beasts, hovering around him.
The cyan light turned into a huge Azure Dragon, majesty revealed in its dragon eyes. The Azure Dragon phantom merged into the armor, becoming pauldrons and arm guards.
The white light condensed into leg armor, and a tiger roar seemed to come from the void, shaking heaven and earth.
The red light turned into a scorching Vermilion Bird, flame wings spreading, even burning the air into distorted shapes.
The black light condensed into a heavy Black Tortoise, becoming a chest plate, indestructible.
In the golden-red flames, a Golden Saint Dragon soared into the sky, dragon might shocking heaven and earth. The Golden Saint Dragon phantom merged into the armor, becoming the helmet and core.
The next moment, violent energy fluctuations shocked outward, and terrifying sonic booms actually came from the air.
"Roar!"
A majestic dragon roar suddenly sounded.
Rings of brilliant golden halos surrounded Lu Feng's body. Fortunately, there was divine power protection here; otherwise, this palace would probably collapse directly.
Gradually, the pain on his face disappeared. The calm expression formed a sharp contrast with the sweat flowing down his cheeks.
Time passed minute by minute.
Three days later.
Capital of Slaughter.
Suddenly, everyone's heart trembled. That feeling of fear, almost instantly, made them feel as if they couldn't breathe.
In the palace at the center of the city, the King of Slaughter suddenly opened his eyes.
"What! How is this possible!"
A hoarse voice sounded. Tang Chen, no, a trace of fear actually appeared in the eyes of the Nine-Headed Bat King.
"Another Asura Divine Trial participant!"
The next moment, that dusty memory was recalled in its mind.
In ancient times, Soul Masters did not need soul rings to advance. The tools used by human Soul Masters were mainly Soul Tools, not Martial Souls.
The Human Race and the Beast Race, apart from fighting every day, were two completely unrelated races.
Extraterrestrial invasion, ancient gods set up a barrier, sealing the Douluo Universe.
But new problems arose.
The energy in a single universe could no longer sustain the cultivation of numerous races.
Therefore, a new round of battles began.
Except this time, it was an internal war. Only the victorious side had the right to survive.
And the Human Race had a ruthless person who brought heavy damage to the Beast Race.
He proved his Dao through killing, not only achieving a Divine Position but also uniting several God Kings to create the current soul ring system.
He was the Asura God.
Under this cruel plan, one day, the Beast Race would be completely extinct.
The Nine-Headed Bat King was a descendant of the ancient Beast Race. It lurked in the Capital of Slaughter, attacking the inheritors of the Asura God, just to avenge those former clansmen.
"Damn it, could it be that the only end for our Beast Race is extinction?"
Underground.
Lu Feng slowly opened his eyes. He sized up himself, uncontrollable ecstasy in his eyes.
The ultimate form recorded in the Martial Soul Seal Method, Armor Combination!
Pah, Martial Soul Combination!
The more heroic souls an ancient Soul Master could bear, the stronger their combat power. It wasn't gang fighting, but combining the energy of all heroic souls to produce a multiplication effect.
And in the records of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, Taiji generates Two Instruments (Liangyi), Two Instruments generate Four Symbols (Sixiang).
Taiji is one, meaning chaos.
If one could comprehend the changes of the Four Symbols and understand the rotation of Yin and Yang, one could pursue that supreme Dao.
"Level seventy-nine!"
Lu Feng felt his soul power and couldn't help exclaiming.
Although he had cultivated for a year, at the Soul Saint level, increasing two levels of soul power a year was considered good.
One hundred-thousand-year soul ring increasing six or seven levels of soul power was simply incredible.
Lu Feng carefully felt his seventh soul ring. The next moment, a trace of enlightenment flashed in his eyes.
Two hundred thousand years!
"In the original work, Tang San spent a hundred days absorbing a hundred-thousand-year soul ring. His soul power also conveniently increased to level seventy-four, increasing four levels at once."
"Stingy Asura God, owes me two levels of soul power."
Lu Feng couldn't help curling his lips. He could feel that his physical condition hadn't reached its limit.
But the energy of the God Bestowed Soul Ring had been completely absorbed, so he woke up from cultivation.
"Barely acceptable. Suddenly close to level eighty, still a bit unaccustomed. Next, should I go directly to Sea God Island? Fleece another God Bestowed Soul Ring?"
"Anyway, with my current strength, if I want to leave the island, Bo Saixi shouldn't be able to stop me."
"How about shamelessly trying to inherit the Angel God position?"
Lu Feng touched his chin. Immediately, with a thought, he released the little rabbit's soul.
"This little guy still has a divine trial. Let's see what the test is first."
However, the next moment, looking at Xiao Wu in front of him, Lu Feng's jaw dropped instantly.
