Douluo Dalu The Story Of Sheng Feilong - Chapter 216 Another Soul Sain

After Song Weihan’s outburst, he and She Meixiao instantly approached Huang Jialong and checked up on him. A few moments later, She Meixiao frowned, looking at Song Weihan with a puzzled look and a frown. “He doesn’t seem to be affected by the Spirit Essence absorbing all that energy?”

Forwning, while still inspecting Huang Jialong with his Spirit Power, Song Weihan nodded his head “It seems like he’s on the same page with his Spirit Essnece; They’re absorbing the energy together. When he tried to create his Soul Core before, his Spirit Essence always stopped him from succeeding; Now, they’re working together.”

Just as Song Weihan said, Huang Jialong was currently completely calm, absorbing energy together with his Spirit Essence. His Soul Core was rotating at a high speed, drawing in all the surrounding origin energy, of which his Spirit Essence took the greater part, while the more mild and calm energy was left for Huang Jialong to make his breakthrough; Although it was slower then when he was usually cultivating, it was also much safer for him.

“What should we do now? Should we help him?” She Meixiao asked with a frown, to which Song Weihan fell into silence again. “We can either help him by drawing more origin energy towards this place and thus let him absorb more energy… or we wait it out. He’s currently completely calm, so his breakthrough is most likely going very well, though also very slow. If we increase the forcibly amount of origin energy around here, we might break this balance for him.”

She Meixiao observed Huang Jialong for a few more moments, then sighed and smiled at Song Weihan. “In that case, I say we wait for him to naturally make his breakthrough. His Spirit Essence has calmed down and resigned itself to only taking 70 percent of the energy. If we increase the volume, it might get greedy.”

The tone of her voice was light-hearted, a clear sign that She Meixiao herself had calmed down by now. Song Weihan nodded towards her, then pulled a table and two chairs out from his Spacial Ring. “Let’s wait, then. I’ll stay as well, in case anything unexpected happens.”

She Meixiao’s lips twitched before she started chuckling and sat down on one of the chairs. “I’ll never get used to your weird antics.” Song Weihan merely raised an eyebrow and lightly scoffed at her. “Would you rather stand around like an idiot? Or sit on the ground?”

“I didn’t mean it like that.” She Meixiao helplessly shook her head, admitting defeat in this matter. A little while later, though she couldn’t stop herself from teasing Song Weihan again. “You wouldn’t happen to have some tea with you?” The latter just side-eyed her with an annoyed expression. “Don’t be ridiculous.”

Sheng Feilong spent the whole morning training with together with Yuanen Yehui. Though meditating for the most part, the two of them also sparred after a while. Unsurprisingly, Sheng Feilong won this spar, but he couldn’t help but admire how much Yuanen Yehui’s strength had increased since she became a Soul Emperor.

According to his estimate, even a high ranking Soul Saint wouldn’t be able to keep up with the strength of her Titan Giant Ape transformation. Not to mention her combat prowess being even higher once she used her Fallen Angel Spirit Essence.

“…I guess we’ll be training together for the whole day.” Sheng Feilong said as he looked at his Soul Communicator. Yuanen Yehui looked up at him, tilting her head slightly. “Master just sent me a message; His matters will take longer than expected and he can’t tell me when he’ll be finished, so he cancelled the training for the whole day.”

“So you’re basically free to do what you want?” Yuanen Yehui raise an eyebrow, surprised that Sheng Feilong was still training in that case. She knew perfectly well how straining Song Weihan’s training plans are; A day of rest in between would be a welcome surprise. Sheng Feilong understood what she was implying and simply laughed it off. “I’m used to Master’s training. Slacking off just because he’s not here wouldn’t feel right.”

He glanced at the time and turned his head towards Yuanen Yehui. “Let’s grab something to eat and then continue?” Also getting hungry at this point, Yuanen Yehui readily agreed to his suggestion, leaving every other training for the afternoon.

Huang Jialong refined all of the origin energy his Soul Core drew in for a long time. After a few hours, he could clearly feel the energy inside his now Six-Headed Black Hydra Spirit Essence exceeding some kind of break-even point; It released a powerful roar and the bottom of its neck, right next to where the sixth head grew, started ominously wiggling and writhing.

Understanding its need for energy, Huang Jialong’s redirected all of the energy towards it, causing its body to shake for a while, as the writing and wiggling grew more intense. Minutes later, its neck burst open with a disgusting sound of flesh and skin being torn apart as a new, seventh head shot out from the wound.

The powerful energy released by this second evolution of his Spirit Essence caused Huang Jialong’s body to shake massively; Enough to alert She Meixiao and Song Weihan, who instantly appeared next to his body, once again checking on him. She Meixiao was the first to notice that Huang Jialong’s Spirit Essence must have finished evolving as the pressure she felt from him had increased once more.

Both of them used their Spirit Power to observe what was going on with Huang Jialong, but before they could react, a massive amount of energy burst out of his body, startling both Titled Douluos. After a few moments, Huang Jialong’s Soul Power stabilized again, but both Titled Douluo’s understood what had just happened. “He suddenly broke through..?”

It was already deep into the night and She Meixiao and Song Weihan didn’t believe Huang Jialong would finish his breakthrough anytime soon, yet the moment his Spirit Essence finished evolving, he also broke through to become a Soul Saint? This was something both of them didn’t expect at all.

It took a few more minutes before Huang Jialong opened his eyes; His energy had stabilized rather well, though a part of it was still leaking out. She Meixiao and Song Weihan stood some distance away from him with calm faces, congratulating him for his breakthrough.

Huang Jialong broke into a huge grin, ecstatic that he finally made his breakthrough, but another thought suddenly shot into his mind. “Right, I still need to condense another Soul Ring.” Song Weihan and She Meixiao stopped him, the former smiling lightly. “Why would you want to condense another 10.000-years-old Soul Ring?”

“What do you mean, Senior?” Huang Jialong looked surprised; Wasn’t it normal to want to condense another Soul Ring after a breakthrough? Song Weihan only shrugged in response, glancing at She Meixiao. “After I came to Daedalus, I began to further my research in Artificial Soul Bones and Spirit Souls… Naturally, Daedalus would want powerful, new Spirit Souls.”

It dawned upon Huang Jialong what Song Weihan was implying and he looked at She Meixiao, who also only smiled in response. “Of course, Daedalus would want powerful Spirit Souls to increase the strength of our most talented members. That naturally includes you, Feilong and Yehui.”

“Originally, I was only planning to create a 100.000-years-old Spirit Soul for Feilong using my own resources, but She Meixiao insisted that I helped er creates one for you and Yehui as well.” Song Weihan added with a slightly apathetic expression, causing Huang Jialong’s eyes to widen to the size of saucers. “Senior, you… you prepared a 100.000-years-old Spirit Soul for me…?”

Not being able to suppress the smile creeping onto his face, Song Weihan nodded towards Huang Jialong. “You should thank She Meixiao for that; She paid for most of the resources. Nurturing a Spirit Soul to the 100.000-years-old level is really expensive, you see.”

She Meixiao’s lips twitched once more, but she could only smile; ‘Expensive’ really didn’t do the cost justice at all – What she had to pay was a sky high price that nearly left her funds dried out. If she hadn’t paid out of her own pocket, something like that would’ve never happened, even with Daedalus’ support; They would never pay so much to support a single Soul Master, that’s how expensive it was.

Ignoring her, Song Weihan continued to speak to Huang Jialong. “However, you won’t get the Spirit Soul yet. You’re simply still too weak. You’ve reached rank 70, becoming a Soul Saint, but that’s not good enough; Your Spirit Power is still lacking. What you need to do is finally reach the Spirit Abyss Realm before you get another Spirit Soul.”

Huang Jialong was dumbstruck. Although his Spirit Power was already quite strong, he could still feel himself be quite far from reaching the Spirit Abyss Realm; At the very least, it would still take him months to reach it, even if he focused all his training on his Spirit Power!

Song Weihan didn’t seem to care about that; He yawned, looked at the time and turned around to leave, not forgetting to take his table and the chairs with him and spoke with his back to Huang Jialong. “You’ve got half a year; If you can’t reach the Spirit Abyss Realm by then, don’t bother with asking for the Spirit Soul; I’ll just use it to nurture a few others to the 10.000-years-old boundary.”
