Chapter 4 Planning An hour later. Inside the inn. Qin Ming, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. “After a period of breathing exercises, I have adjusted myself to the best state. It is time to start taking whale glue. I hope this thing can help me achieve a breakthrough." Qin Ming took out the brocade box containing the thousand-year-old whale glue, and his thoughts kept drifting away. 'In the original novel, when Huo Yuhao absorbed the weathered ten thousand year old whale glue, his soul power increased by about half a level. The quality of my whale glue should be better than his weathered whale glue. I hope this thing can help me break through the bottleneck.' Qin Ming himself was not far from reaching level 30 in soul power, and in his opinion, whale glue only served as a trigger.
After thinking it through, Qin Ming no longer hesitated. As soon as he thought about it, the shadow of the Fiery Wolf appeared behind him. The temperature in the room rose suddenly. Qin Ming ignored these changes, directly opened the brocade box, took out the thousand-year-old whale glue, and placed it in his hand. The fishy smell of whale glue lingered at Qin Ming's nose. Qin Ming didn't care and just kept urging his soul power. Flames gradually emerged on his right hand and began to burn the whale glue in Qin Ming's hand. As time goes by. The whale jelly gradually softened and the originally black surface fell off. A strange aroma emanated from the whale glue. Spots of golden light then bloomed. Seeing this, Qin Ming was overjoyed and began to increase the output of his soul power. The flame in Qin Ming's hand suddenly rose. In the scorching flames, the area occupied by the light spot on the jelly gradually increased. In a short while, the whale glue in Qin Ming's hand turned into a dark golden gelatinous substance. Without hesitation, Qin Ming swallowed the whale glue in his hand in one gulp. Feeling the boiling hot whale jelly flowing into his stomach, Qin Ming did not dare to delay. He quickly closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing. As Qin Ming began to refine the whale glue, streams of hot currents rose up and continuously washed Qin Ming's limbs and bones.
The blood in Qin Ming's body began to surge, and his skin turned blood red. From a distance, it seemed that wisps of steam were coming out of Qin Ming's body. As the body's strength continued to increase, the side effects of whale glue also began to emerge. Wave after wave of pleasure continued to stimulate Qin Ming's mind. Qin Ming unconsciously thought of his experience before traveling through time. Qin Ming had anticipated this and did not dare to be negligent. Qin Ming kept his mind focused and constantly circulated his soul power to divert his attention, so as to avoid getting lost in these pleasures and missing the opportunity to break through. Time keeps passing. Driven by his body, Qin Ming's soul power also began to fluctuate. There are signs of breaking through the bottleneck. Feeling this, Qin Ming was overjoyed. "It's now!" After shouting in his heart, Qin Ming began to strive to reach the Soul Master realm with all his strength. After a while. hum- The aura of Soul Master emanated from Qin Ming. Qin Ming slowly opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. “I didn’t expect that I would succeed in making a breakthrough in one fell swoop. But it’s time to think about absorbing the spirit ring later.” Qin Ming's thoughts kept drifting away. 'It is mentioned in the original novel that the maximum age limit for a soul master at the third ring is 1760 years. The fourth ring is around 5000 years. However, this point is questionable and can only be used as a reference. My physical strength should be higher than that of an ordinary soul master, but the exact amount of improvement will only be known after testing. In addition, there is another point mentioned in the original book. Huo Yuhao absorbed the Ice Emperor's torso bones and weathered ten-thousand-year-old whale glue, and also used the gold of living things to forge the foundation for becoming a god. Even so, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm only believed that Huo Yuhao could barely withstand the impact of a ten thousand year spirit ring and could absorb about five thousand year spirit rings. In addition, it can help Huo Yuhao seal his soul power for about 10,000 years.
With so many bonuses, Huo Gua was able to directly skip levels and absorb the 15,000-year soul ring when he reached the third ring. I am not Huo Gua. I don't have the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm. I don't have the gold of life either. Compared with Huo Gua, I only absorbed an ordinary piece of ten thousand year old whale glue. The soul ring age I can bear is good enough if it can reach 3 years.' Thinking of this, Qin Ming was not discouraged. His thoughts became clearer. 'Huo Gua is Huo Gua after all, I don't have the opportunities he has. But my starting point is higher than his, and at the same time I can follow Ma Hongjun's path. With the help of the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower and the inner elixir of the Ten-headed Fiery Sun Snake. My martial spirit still has at least two more chances to evolve. My future will definitely not be worse than his.' Qin Ming's eyes became firm. He raised his legs and sat up from the bed, muttering. "I have to test my soul skills." With a thought, Qin Ming silently raised his hand. Qin Ming's first soul ring also lit up, and soul power began to gather at his fingertips, and a scorching flame ignited. Without much hesitation, Qin Ming raised his hand and pointed to the wooden chair beside him. A line of fire shot out as Qin Ming moved and landed on the wooden chair beside him. boom-- The line of fire blew a small hole in the chair, the depth of a fingernail. Seeing this, Qin Ming was only slightly disappointed, but he could also understand it. 'After all, my original self was born into a commoner family. His first soul skill, Blue Fire Line, was taken from a fire-attributed soul beast that was about two hundred years old. This soul skill condenses a thumb-thick line of fire at the fingertips for attacking. It condenses quickly and consumes little energy. But unfortunately, the damage of this soul skill is very low, even worse than that of Ashe. It can only be said to be a useless soul skill. If there is no way to increase the power of the spirit ring in the later stage, then this spirit skill will inevitably be eliminated.'
Without wasting time, Qin Ming activated his second soul ring again. The shadow of the martial spirit behind Qin Ming sank into his body, and two golden vertical lines appeared on Qin Ming's face. After a quick sense of his own condition, Qin Ming swept away all his previous unhappiness. 'The second soul skill, Gray Wolf Blessing, is taken from a 500-year-old gray wolf. The effect is to increase all attributes by 20% in a short period of time. This kind of status-type soul skill is considered a small top-grade soul skill. Because of these two soul skills, the original body was fighting. He often relies on the speed enhanced by the second soul skill to continuously pull, then uses the fire line enhanced by the second soul skill to consume the opponent from a distance, and finally ends the battle in close combat. Based on this combat system, the third soul skill I chose can be an explosive soul skill, trying to obtain a means of decisive victory. Or choose burning soul skills and continue to consume the enemy from a distance.' Qin Ming's thoughts gradually became clear. 'The acquisition and use of soul skills is a science. I just came here a few days ago. My fighting ability is not strong, and it is obviously unrealistic for me to hunt down a thousand-year-old soul beast by myself. I also need some advice on how to choose and identify soul beasts. It is too difficult and time-consuming to gather this knowledge on your own. It seems that I have to trouble the bishop who wants to "progress" again...' (End of this chapter)
