Chapter 4, Second Soul Skill: Sword Realm Prison
The moment Su Mo said yes, countless soul energies in the world began to surge and converge from all directions.
After an unknown amount of time, a jet-black, ten-thousand-year-old soul ring suddenly appeared.
Su Mo looked at the spirit ring in front of him and was secretly delighted.
With a thought, he released the Myriad Shadows Sword and slowly approached the Soul Ring.
Fortunately, the sky was dark and this place was a wasteland. If other Soul Kings or Soul Emperors saw this Soul Ring, they would definitely try to snatch it.
The rarity of a ten-thousand-year soul ring makes it highly sought after by countless Soul Kings.
Because of the system, everyone can absorb this spirit ring.
Su Mo's heart pounded, his breathing became rapid, and he raised the Myriad Shadows Sword towards the Soul Ring.
The Myriad Shadows Sword emitted a blood-red halo, and the Soul Rings flew over rapidly, drawn by the halo.
The moment the spirit ring was attached to the Myriad Shadows Sword Martial Soul, Su Mo felt unprecedented pressure, as if he were being continuously beaten.
In a daze, Su Mo saw Death beckoning to him.
After an unknown amount of time, the system finally issued a notification.
"Congratulations, host, on successfully absorbing the ten-thousand-year soul ring, the Cave Demon Spider. Your soul power level has increased to level 35."
Su Mo lay on the grass, panting heavily.
He felt as if his head had been pierced by a thousand swords, and his body had lost all strength.
His shirt was soaked with cold sweat, but his face was full of smiles.
This is because the soul skill provided by this soul ring is incredibly powerful.
Su Mo called it the Sword Realm Cage, which could instantly condense a hundred sharp swords to lock the enemy in place.
Most importantly, the hundred sharp swords can kill the enemies inside the cage at any time.
Keep in mind that this is only Su Mo's second soul skill. Having this soul skill is enough to make Su Mo invincible among Soul Masters.
After lying there for an unknown amount of time, Su Mo finally regained some strength.
It was already broad daylight, and Su Mo only wanted to do one thing: eat.
Absorbing the ten-thousand-year soul ring exhausted his physical strength, leaving him extremely hungry.
Su Mo struggled to his feet. The forced absorption of the ten-thousand-year soul ring had left him in pain all over his body, and he would be unable to recover for at least a day.
Looking around, there was not a single person on the desolate plain.
This place is several kilometers away from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and according to his memory, it is still hundreds of kilometers away from the Heaven Dou City. After thinking for a moment, Su Mo decided to go to the Heaven Dou City to recuperate first.
In the Star Dou Great Forest, several hundred kilometers south of Heaven Dou City, there may be a suitable soul beast. Once I obtain my third soul ring, I will head to Shrek Academy.
In a few days, Tang San and his friends will gather at Shrek Academy, where they will definitely have more options.
Without further ado, Su Mo touched the three gold soul coins he had left in his clothes and headed towards Tian Dou City. He had put them in his pocket a few days ago and never expected they would come in handy.
Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Rongrong, take a rest."
Chen Jian brought over tea and urged him to drink.
"I'm not taking a break. If you want to rest, go and rest yourself."
Ning Rongrong sat cross-legged on the bed, concentrating intently on practicing the art of distraction.
Her brows furrowed slightly, and she felt distressed.
Su Mo broke through to the Soul Venerable realm before her, destroying her pride of many years.
Since Su Mo left, she has been cultivating day and night, and even Ning Fengzhi's attempts to persuade her were to no avail.
For the first time ever, she, who was usually playful, began to practice the art of distraction, believing that she would eventually surpass the helpless Su Mo.
Chen Jian sighed helplessly.
Grandpa told him to cultivate their relationship, but Ning Rongrong has been cultivating all along, so how can they cultivate it?
Why should a support-type Soul Master work so hard? It's not like he can't protect her.
However, Chen Jian still stayed by Ning Rongrong's side, fearing that she might faint from continuous cultivation.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Su Mo finally arrived at the gate of Tian Dou City.
His white clothes were stained yellow from the dust of the journey, and his trousers were worn down to the hem.
Despite hunger and excruciating physical pain, Su Mo walked for over a hundred kilometers. If it weren't for the Soul Venerable's robust physique, he would have died on the road long ago.
To avoid being poisoned, he didn't even dare to eat the wild fruits on the trees, because he had lived in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School since childhood and had no idea which fruits were edible.
Two Great Soul Masters were guarding the city gate, their faces full of disdain as they looked at the disheveled Su Mo.
The two men drew their guns and blocked Su Mo outside the city.
One of them said sternly, "Tian Dou City does not accept refugees. Refugees without soul power should find another place."
Su Mo felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He looked at his clothes and realized that they were indeed similar to those of a refugee.
Although the fabric of the top is excellent, it already has quite a few scratches.
Su Mo did not argue, but silently activated his soul power and released his soul ring.
The combination of white and black spirit rings left the two of them stunned.
One of them rubbed his eyes, seriously doubting whether he was fully awake.
A white spirit ring is only a ten-year spirit ring, while a black spirit ring is a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.
Their Soul Master Captain's highest Soul Ring is only purple. Could this young man be a Soul King?
Thinking of this, the two hurriedly made way, angering a Soul King who even the captain couldn't protect.
Seeing that the two had let him pass, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief; he was genuinely afraid that a fight would break out.
At this moment, he was exhausted and hungry, and his strength was not necessarily much higher than the two of them.
As soon as he entered the city, Su Mo heard the cries of street vendors.
"Selling steamed buns! One large meat bun for only one copper soul coin."
"Candied hawthorns! Candied hawthorns are here!"
"I have a big cucumber. It's delicious, inexpensive, economical, refreshing, and can relieve fatigue."
The fragrant aroma wafted towards Su Mo, making him involuntarily swallow.
He swore he had never been this hungry in his past and present lives combined.
He took the gold soul coin out of his pocket, and the gold soul coin reflected golden light in the sunlight.
A hundred meters away, a figure dressed in a black robe with cunning eyes stared intently at Su Mo.
"A big fish!"
The man in black robes muttered to himself.
Judging from his appearance, he is at most fourteen years old, and his cultivation level is at most that of a Soul Master.
"Delicious! Delicious! Delicious!"
With one gold soul coin, Su Mo bought all sorts of things, including steamed buns, cucumber pies, and so on.
As he ate, Su Mo's strength gradually returned, especially from that cucumber. The stall owner seemed to be a Soul Master; as soon as he ate it, Su Mo's strength quickly returned.
Looking at his somewhat worn-out clothes, Su Mo walked down the street, searching for a small clothing store.
Behind him, a man in black robes followed closely, his eyes filled with greed.
Su Mo searched the entire street but still couldn't find a tailor shop.
As he walked down a side street to another street, a sharp knife was suddenly pressed against his back.
"Don't move! Knives don't have eyes."
The voice behind him was deep and menacing.
The system then issues a reminder.
