Perhaps because the Lone Bamboo spirit ring and Lin Yuan’s Spirit shared the same origin and roots, coupled with the fact that he had previously consumed over a dozen pieces of hundred-year-old whale Glue.
And he possessed the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Formula.
When Lin Yuan absorbed this nearly six-hundred-year-old Lone Bamboo spirit ring, he did not feel too much pain.
An hour later, he succeeded in absorbing it.
At this time, Father Lin had also wrapped that Spirit Bone layer after layer with thick cloth.
Seeing Lin Yuan wake up, he stepped forward with an excited face and asked, “Ayuan, how do you feel?”
“Not bad, my Soul Power Rank has probably increased by three.” Lin Yuan roughly sensed his own condition and replied.
“Rank Thirteen.”
Father Lin was overjoyed and continued to ask, “What about your Spirit Ability?
A first spirit ring that is a full five to six hundred years old—let alone seeing it, I’ve never even heard of it.”
Lin Yuan smiled and said, “My first Spirit Ability is named Lone Bamboo Javelin, which can condense a bamboo stick to throw out, instantly increasing attack power and strength by fifty percent, and it can also be used as a weapon.”
“As for the power, I still need to test it to know.”
While speaking, Lin Yuan targeted a huge boulder weighing over a thousand catties more than a dozen meters away.
A deep yellow spirit ring rose from beneath his feet, and then its light bloomed.
“First Spirit Ability · Lone Bamboo Javelin!”
He let out a low shout, and the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Formula inside his body circulated.
A dark green bamboo stick roughly the same length as Lin Yuan and flickering with blue electric arcs quietly appeared in his hand, and he casually threw it out.
It didn’t matter when it wasn’t thrown, but once thrown, it was downright terrifying.
The lightning was dazzling, and the blue electric arcs on the entire bamboo stick converged at the top of the bamboo stick in front, resembling a blue lightning bolt released from his hand.
It flashed so brightly that Father Lin closed his eyes to protect his titanium-alloy dog eyes.
Opening them again, most of that bamboo stick was inserted into the boulder, leaving only a small section exposed outside.
The boulder was split apart, with cracks extending directly to the underground part, and the surface flickered with unstable blue electric arcs, continuously spreading around.
“So…
so powerful!”
Seeing this scene, for no reason, Father Lin swallowed hard.
Can this even be considered a first Spirit Ability?
Even the second Spirit Ability of attack system Spirit Grandmasters with the best-configured spirit rings would only be around this level!
Striking a large stone is already like this, if this were to hit a person, wouldn’t it blast a bowl-sized transparent hole?
Lin Yuan, however, was somewhat disappointed.
He had originally thought that this stone would be blown away, or at worst the bamboo stick would be able to entirely submerge into the boulder.
Looking at it now, this Lone Bamboo martial soul was still a bit weak after all.
Thinking about it, after promoting to ten-thousand-year quality, it should improve a lot.
Before that, he could only rely on the Cultivation Technique to make up for it.
Thinking of this, he said to his father, “Dad, such a huge commotion just now will definitely attract the villagers’ attention.
Let’s leave quickly.”
“Mn, let’s go.” Father Lin nodded.
It wasn’t that he didn’t want to greet the fellow villagers.
But now they were very likely being targeted just like Lin Tian.
Unless they were sure it was truly safe, it was better not to show their faces.
Three days later.
The father and son returned to their new home.
Upon learning that their son not only successfully absorbed a six-hundred-year spirit ring but also obtained a Spirit Bone,
Mother Lin was naturally overjoyed, continuously praising that her son possessed the bearing of a Spirit Saint.
Immediately afterwards, she gave the Spirit Bone that Father Lin had put away to Lin Yuan to absorb.
Telling him not to reveal it before he had sufficient strength, so as not to invite fatal disaster.
Lin Yuan had originally thought of taking it to an auction house to sell, but upon thinking that his mother was an ordinary person, his father was too upright, and he himself was still a child, among the three of them, no matter who took it to sell, accidents were prone to happen.
Thus he agreed.
However, he did not absorb it, but instead carefully stored it into the storage spirit tool ring.
Waiting until he possessed a certain strength in the future, then considering taking it out to sell.
At the same time, considering that Transmigrators might also appear in Spirit Hall, when he went to claim the Spirit Master subsidy, he chose to change his name, and in terms of Spirit registration, he also chose to register it as thunder bamboo.
Just like that, days returned to peace once again.
The following eight months.
Lin Yuan lived an ordinary yet not boring life anew.
Every night he used the Palm Heaven Bottle to collect green liquid, in the morning he did Saitama-style workouts, in the morning he practiced the boxing and footwork of the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Formula, and the rest of the time was spent to Cultivate and enhance Soul Power and Cultivation Technique Realm.
After Cultivating the second layer of the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Formula, he cultivated the Supreme Sacred Universe Skill.
When the Supreme Sacred Universe Skill was also cultivated to the second layer, Lin Yuan truly felt the benefits of these complementary Cultivation Techniques.
Operated simultaneously, not only could Lin Yuan’s combat power double, but his Cultivation speed also rose along with the tide.
Under the blessing of the green liquid of the Palm Heaven Bottle, he was unexpectedly still able to maintain a Cultivation speed of increasing one Rank of Soul Power every two months or so.
When the Soto Intermediate Soul Master Academy was about to start school, his Soul Power had already increased to Rank seventeen.
Originally Lin Yuan wanted to go directly to Soto City to register.
But his parents were not at ease with him being alone outside at such a young age.
Having no alternative, Lin Yuan had no choice but to agree to stay for another year.
Cultivation knows no days or months.
Two months’ time slipped away inadvertently amidst Lin Yuan’s diligent Cultivation and hard training.
At this time, Lin Yuan was already nine years old, and compared to when he was a tiny little thing leaving Nuoding City, his height had undergone tremendous changes.
It had already reached 1.6 meters.
His angular contours were becoming increasingly defined.
Perhaps because his Spirit was constantly evolving, his appearance was growing more and more upright; initially, it could only be considered having regular facial features.
Now he was already a well-deserved little handsome guy.
His strength underwent even more heaven-shaking and earth-splicing changes.
After this another year of Cultivation and the Palm Heaven Bottle catalyzing his Spirit, Lin Yuan’s Soul Power had long broken through Rank twenty, and three months ago, he obtained a stimulated fifteen-hundred-year-old Thousand Illusions Bamboo spirit ring.
He obtained a Spirit Ability named Bamboo Forest Phantom.
This Spirit Ability could simultaneously release a large amount of Lone Bamboo, creating mirages that were difficult to distinguish between true and false.
Being in the mirage, not only would Mental Energy be suppressed, but it would also make enemies lose their bearings.
Conversely, Lin Yuan could amplify his own Mental Energy while coming and going freely inside, and he could also use the cover of the mirage to cooperate with ‘Lone Bamboo Javelin’ to launch a surprise attack on enemies.
Most crucially, he could also project the first spirit ring onto the second spirit ring to achieve the effect of changing the color of the spirit ring.
It could be said to be a quite practical Spirit Ability.
At the same time, after killing this Thousand Illusions Bamboo, Lin Yuan obtained a Wisdom Skull.
This made Lin Yuan firm in his guess that plant-type Spirit Beasts catalyzed by the plastic Palm Heaven Bottle could drop a Spirit Bone.
After that he tried two more times, resulting in great disappointment, because the plant-type Spirit Beasts stimulated by this plastic Palm Heaven Bottle had to be stimulated starting from a ten-year Spirit Beast in order to drop a Spirit Bone.
Plant-type Spirit Beasts of a hundred years or more would not.
It could be considered a rather tasteless ability.
With the mindset of something being better than nothing, Lin Yuan put away this Thousand Illusions Bamboo Wisdom Spirit Bone, and then began to put all the green liquid into stimulating the Lone Bamboo martial soul.
Finally, on the day before setting off for the Soto Intermediate Soul Master Academy, the quality of his Lone Bamboo martial soul broke through ten thousand years.
The color of the bamboo pole turned into a dark jade color, just like being carved from jasper.
The bamboo body circulated a faint green light, allowing the attack power of Lone Bamboo Javelin to be greatly enhanced.
The enveloping range of the Bamboo Forest Phantom also increased from the initial diameter of twenty to thirty meters to beyond fifty meters.
Perhaps when it breaks through to one hundred thousand years, it will be able to reach a range of over a thousand meters.
