ALL NOVEL Chapter 8: chapter 8 The First Soul Ring: spiral needlefish
Walking into the Soul Hunt Forest, Chen Xin asked, "Xiaotian you said that your martial spirit needs to absorb soul rings with elemental attributes to grow So have you considered what will be your first elemental attribute is?"
"Yes teacher after thinking about it all day yesterday I have completely determined the first direction of my growth and for the first elemental attribute and I choose water!" After careful selection Jun Tianlin finally determined the skills he needed.
As long as he follows what he plans he will definitely become a top-notch attack-type battle soul master in the future and he will only need to come up with his own support soul skills
After all there are several auxiliary skills in the demon sword skills that are frighteningly effective and Jun Tianlin has no intention of giving up on them.
When Chen Xin heard this he stopped and asked in confusion "Why among the attributes you listed before the attack capability of water is the weakest."
The scorching and impact of a fire , piercing and paralysis of a thunder ,speed and cutting of a wind and, thickness and strength of earth are all more stronger compare to the water.
While the power of immense waves is certainly formidable today their goal is simply to get a hundred-year-old soul beast which is something currently within their reach In Chen Xin's view the water attribute can be developed and enhanced at a later stage and Securing a soul ring from a water-attributed soul beast that has lived for a hundred thousand years would be the ideal path forward
"Teacher of course I understand what your talking about but in my development plan the properties of water are extremely important and I must get it as soon as possible" Jun Tianlin said firmly.
"Well in that case let's go to the lake immediately and i know what kind of soul beast that may be very suitable for you" With that said Chen Xin took Jun Tianlin to the lake area.
And compared with other elemental attributes water is a relatively easy attribute to find and there are a lot of soul beasts that can be found in a lake and although they are not as strong as from the sea soul beasts they are enough to meet the needs of ordinary soul masters
During there travelling they encountered several spirit beasts including even thousand-year spirit beasts however none of the soul beasts dared to approach After all Sword Douluo's sword energy was too intimidating and instinctively sensing the danger the soul beasts choose to avoid and keep their distance.
Walking through a place as dangerous as the Soul Hunting Forest with a Title Douluo feels almost no different than a stroll through a garden.
This is the benefit of having a strong background.
Soon the two came to a huge lake where they could see many water-type soul beasts wandering around
"Teacher how about that jellyfish? I feel that the water energy in it is very strong." Jun Tianlin pointed at a blue jellyfish and said.
"Is that the poisonous jellyfish? Judging by its size this one has only about 200 years of cultivation No the soul ring I'm here to find for you will be much more suitable than this jellyfish" Chen Xin said immediately dismissing Tianlin's suggestion
The two had no choice but to continue searching and soon they encountered another fish that looked like a kitchen knife.
"A Swordfish this one is not bad but unfortunately the age seems too low and it's just three hundred years." Chen Xin became picky again.
At this moment something seemed to appear next to the swordfish and a flash of blue light streaked past and actually pierced The swordfish's body in the middle and the piercing capability of the soul beast was terrifyingly high and its speed is also so fast that Jun Tianlin couldn't even catch a hint of its shadow moving.
"Teacher what was that just now? It actually pierced the swordfish in an instant."
"This attack and speed are exactly what I'm looking for Xiaotian your soul ring is here." Chen Xin waved his hand and fired a sword energy which exploded on the lake
And immediately a strange-shaped fish was shot out from the lake the fish's nose and mouth were connected together like a needle and its tail is composed of four fins that are in a spiral shape and it seems that this fish just relied on its fins to rotate and accelerate and then used its nose to pierce the swordfish.
"Haha it is indeed a Spiral Needlefish" Chen Xin immediately took action and sucked the fish in with the help of his powerful soul power "Xiaotian this is the soul beast we are looking for The age of the spiral needlefish is determined by the body shape and the number of it's fins so once it's body size increases all the fins will fall off and would grow again and this soul beast is now a medium size and has a four fins which means The cultivation level of this sharp shuttle is about four hundred years so it is perfect for you Now that I have it under control you will have to kill it immediately!"
"Okay Shadow Sword go!" Jun Tianilin responded immediately He could understand Chen Xin's good intentions he was afraid that the a water attribute would cause the attack power of his first soul skill to be weak so he specially found this soul beast and the kind of water attribute soul beast with high attack power that can make up for the water's elemental attribute.
The demon sword then divided into four afterimage swords and immediately shot towards the spiral needlefish and kill it on the spot.
According to Chen Xin's instructions yesterday Jun Tianlin should sit down cross-legged and wait for the halo of dark yellow soul rings to flew out from the spiral needlefish and to surround Jun Tianlin's body
"No, the depth of color in this spirit ring isn't something a four-hundred-year-old spirit beast should have," Chen Xin said stepping forward to examine the body of the spiral niddlefish He then noticed that although the fish's tail usually had four segments this one had six and two of which appeared to have been severed and It was likely injured in its previous fight with other soul beast.
"No this spiral needlefish is actually a six-hundred-year-old spirit beast Tianlin you have to hold on!"
Since the absorption of the soul ring has begun then he can't stop it even if he wanted to so he just hope Jun Tianlin can hold on.
"Damn it hurts!"
The spiral needlefish's lingering resentment pierced Jun Tianlin like needles sending sharp searing pain through his entire body and if he were an ordinary child he likely wouldn't have endured it for long But with the soul of an adult within him Jun Tianlin was able to grit his teeth and persevere.
"How long will this take?" Unknowingly half an hour has passed and Jun Tianlin has persisted until now and he is almost reaching his limit.
After all his body is still that of a six-year-old child Although he has the Shushan School's body training method he ha recently got it when his martial spirit awakened and he has never practiced it at all.
At this moment the light in Tianlin's left hand shone brightly and the Holy Spirit Bead appeared on its own and placed a Holy Breath Barrier.
"A martial soul protector?" Chen Xin murmured in surprise "I didn't expect this god-level martial spirit to be so attuned that it would shield its master at such a critical moment" Initially anxious Chen Xin couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of the martial spirit and under the protection of the Holy Breath Barrier Jun Tianlin's soul power, mental strength, and injuries began to gradually heal.
After another half an hour and he felt no pain anymore and only a steady stream of power is flowing into his body.
"Great the most dangerous time has passed and now he's on the last part on absorbing the energy of the soul ring!"
Chen Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief Because of his carelessness he almost killed the peerless talent of their seven treasure glazed tile clan
"Successful!" Finally Jun Tianlin opened his eyes and he felt that his power had increased several times
Jun Tianlin's soul power had clearly increased and have probably reached above eleven levels.
"It's finally done and I'm sorry Tianlin because of my carelessness you nearly lost your life" Chen Xin apologized.
Jun tianlin smiled and shook his head "It's alright teacher Who could have known this spiral needlefish was so old? Besides it turned out to be a blessing in disguise and beside i ended up with an incredible soul ring"
