Path of the Warrior: My Soul Ring Can Be Fused Indefinitely! - Chapter 4

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

A thin youth stood alone on the altar.

Four hours had passed since the start of the ceremony, and only one person at the altar was still awakening his Soul Ring.

A wisp of faint white gas blew out from the grinding jade. After circling around the youth, it quickly dissipated.

Many of the surrounding disciples and elders were getting impatient from waiting, but they did not leave immediately.

They were certain that the youth would not awaken an astonishing Soul Ring, but all of them had the mentality of watching a show as they watched the youth make a fool of himself.

Li Ran had no idea what was happening in the outside world.

The ritual to awaken the Soul Ring was far more difficult than he had expected. It was mostly due to the Soul Power that was lacking in his body.

Even though Li Ran felt the energy in the grinding jade, he was unable to draw it out because his strength was not enough.

Li Ran did not know how much time had passed until his clothes were drenched and his energy was about to be depleted.

“This won’t do. The damage to my energy is too fast.”

Before Li Ran could successfully awaken his Soul Ring, his body would not be able to take it and he would withdraw from the awakening ceremony first.

‘This won’t do…’ Li Ran clenched his teeth tightly and sent the few wisps of Soul Power in his body into the grinding jade through his palm.

Buzz. The space around him seemed to have been compressed, producing a buzzing sound that was exceptionally ear-piercing.

The dim altar instantly transformed as if it had been washed by holy water. It seemed to have transformed into a bronze color, revealing a dense aura.

A vast beam of starlight sprinkled down from the altar. The young man was indulged in the situation, so he was unable to see it clearly.

“This… What kind of phenomenon is this?”

The people who had been waiting to see the young man make a fool out of himself could not even speak properly. Other than surprise, there was no other feeling. The phenomenon that had appeared on the altar was simply too astonishing. Compared to the rainbow light that Li Rui had created not too long ago, was it even better?

Everyone heard a boom. The grinding jade in front of Li ran and the altar instantly exploded, sending dust flying everywhere!

The altar was in chaos. Rocks and dust flew everywhere.

Li Ran was stunned. He stared at the Soul Skill floating in front of him. He could not believe it.

Were the heavens joking with him?

This thing… was awakened by him?

Li ran would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.

When the dust fell to the ground, everyone did not have the time to sigh about the tragic state of the altar. They all turned their gazes to Li Ran. They were very curious about what kind of Soul Skill and Soul Ring had been awakened with such a huge commotion.

The chief, Li Xun, became even more nervous. The hope that had been extinguished earlier was once again ignited due to the strange phenomenon just now.

Li Xun looked over full of anticipation and was stunned.

Following that, a heaven-shaking burst of laughter erupted from the crowd.

“One Soul Ring hahaha.”

That was right.

Li Ran only had one Soul Ring bound to him. It was destined that he would only be able to become a Soul Warrior in this lifetime and would not have the possibility of breaking through to the next realm.

Moreover, his Soul Skill was extremely awkward. A rock with an age of 10!

It was neither a Beast Soul Skill nor a Soul Skill with destructive power.

A rock?

To a Soul Warrior, what use could it be? Was it to cushion their buttocks?

Those medicinal herbs that could produce poison possessed an offensive power that was stronger than a rock!

“This is the worst soul skill I’ve ever seen. Hahahahaha.”

“Trash is trash. He only awakened one Soul Ring, and it’s a ten-year-old rock. I’ve never seen anyone worse than him.”

“You can’t put it that way. Successfully awakening a Soul Ring is already out of my expectations. Just now, I thought he didn’t even have soul power. hahaha.”

…

The laughter inside and outside the hall continued.

Li Ran held the dusty rock in his hand and unconsciously clenched his fist. His gaze swept across the crowd. There was ridicule and disdain on their faces. All sorts of expressions flashed past.

Finally, Li Ran’s gaze stopped on the chief.

“I messed up.”

Li Ran’s mouth moved, but he did not make a sound. However, from the shape of his mouth, one could vaguely make out the meaning.

The other party threw him a smile and did not blame him.

Although Li Xun was not his biological father, ever since Li ran transmigrated here, the chief had been silently supporting him from behind. He was the person closest to him in the Pure Wind Clan or the Azure Dragon Continent.

“I…”

Li Ran wanted to say something, but suddenly, his expression froze.

[ Ding! ]

[ Congratulations, host, for successfully activating the God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System! ]

A series of robotic voices suddenly sounded like thunder, causing a huge commotion in Li Ran’s mind!

God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System?

[ God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System: By killing monsters of the same attribute and absorbing the age of the monsters, one can increase the age of one’s Soul Ring and quickly increase one’s strength! ]

Li Ran still had the same dejected expression on his face, but in his heart, he was beaming. The so-called God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System, as the name implied, was the Golden Finger!

Especially when he heard the system’s introduction, Li Ran’s heart was wild with joy!

Previously, because of the age of his Soul Ring, Li ran had specially asked chief about it. There was no shortcut to increase the age of his Soul Ring.

However, the God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System could actually do it!

This meant that the age could be increased by fusing with other monsters. There was no Soul Ring restriction. He just needed to keep absorbing!

Li Ran’s fingers rubbed against the stone, his eyes sparkling.

One Soul Ring was enough!

In the eyes of others, the more Soul Rings one had, the stronger one’s strength would be.

However, Li Ran was different. He had the God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System. Having more would be a burden. One was just right!

So what if Li Rui had seven Soul Rings? As long as Li Ran could increase the age of his Soul Ring to over ten million years, would a Soul Saint not be crushed to death by Li Ran with a stone?

Who said that the more Soul Rings there were, the stronger one would be?

Li Ran would have to just find another way!

Li Ran was delighted. He suddenly felt that the stone looked much more pleasing to the eye.

“Lil Ran, it’s fine. It’s just an awakening of the Soul Ring. Don’t mind it too much.”

The chief, Li Xun, appeared in front of Li Ran at some point in time. When he saw the young man’s flickering expression, he was extremely worried.

No matter how unwilling he was to accept this result, there was nothing he could do in the end.

“Father?”

Li Ran was still studying the system and did not pay attention to the outside world at all. When he saw Li Xun suddenly appear, a hint of astonishment appeared on his face.

“There are still many ways to increase one’s strength. The number of Soul Rings isn’t the only way. There are all sorts of wondrous things in the greater world. There are many ways.”

Since Li Xun had already said this much, if Li Ran could not understand what Li Xun meant, it would be a little unreasonable.

“Father, you don’t have to say anymore. I’m not discouraged. I’m more than happy that I’ve successfully awakened my Soul Skill.”

Li Ran did not lie. He was even happier than awakening seven or eight Soul Rings when he suddenly possessed a God-Tier Soul Ring Fusion System.

Other People’s endpoints might be Soul Saints or even Supreme Martial Gods.

However, Li Ran had unlimited possibilities. His strength had no upper limit, so his future was bound to be even broader!

However, those who did not know about this did not think so after hearing Li Ran’s words.

Those disciples did not say anything. However, in a place where the chief could not see them, they revealed looks of disdain. Trash was trash. Li Ran had awakened a Soul Ring, but he did not feel ashamed. Instead, he felt proud!

“It would be great if I could have Junior Brother Ran’s attitude.”

Li Rui walked over with a smile. He was about the same age, but his figure was much taller than Li Ran’s. He did not look like someone of the same age at all.

“Then Senior Brother needs to work hard and train hard.”

Li Ran was in a good mood and replied politely.

In the past, he could not be bothered with these people, which was why they were becoming more and more unrestrained. However, it was different at the moment.

Did these people really think that Li Ran was a pushover, that he would let others bully him?

Li Ran wanted to pay back these debts in double the amount!
