Chapter 218 Planting a Seed
"Purple-black-black?"
With her beautiful eyes fixed on the five spirit rings surrounding Ye Qifeng, Liu Erlong's mouth gaped open, her pretty face filled with disbelief, and she was stunned into silence.
She didn't even seem to notice that the short purple cloak she was wearing inside out had slipped down to her thighs.
Her purple short shawl slipped off.
Underneath the white shirt
The astonishing arc formed by those towering peaks was immediately revealed in the air.
Without the protection of the short shawl, the thin white clothing offered no concealment whatsoever.
So, springtime suddenly revealed itself.
The sudden, alluring scene caused Ye Qifeng's expression to freeze slightly.
Fortunately, he was the only one there besides Liu Erlong.
Only he witnessed this scene.
The ghostly figures lurking in the shadows wisely focused their attention not on the two's campsite, but rather on the area within a hundred meters.
Seeing Liu Erlong's shocked and dazed expression, Ye Qifeng gently shook his head, walked up to her, picked up the purple short cloak that had slipped off, and put it back on her.
Ye Qifeng's actions finally brought Liu Erlong, who had been in shock for a long time, to a reaction.
Her face flushed slightly, and she quickly reached out to press down on the purple short shawl to cover her exposed skin.
However, she couldn't care less about that at the moment.
Her gaze fixed on Ye Qifeng, her eyes filled with doubt, she immediately asked:
"Xiao Feng, why are your spirit rings like this?"
After tidying up Liu Erlong's short coat and tucking it in, Ye Qifeng looked up at her bright and beautiful face and immediately saw the shock and curiosity that filled it.
Then he smiled faintly and said:
"Because my spirit rings are all spirit rings that can be absorbed beyond the theoretical limits of a spirit master."
"Huh? How is that possible? Aren't Soul Masters supposed to be unable to absorb Soul Rings beyond the theoretical limit?"
Liu Erlong looked up, the door covered in question marks, incredulous.
"Uh, Sister Erlong, who told you that Soul Masters can't absorb Soul Rings beyond their theoretical limits?"
"Night Wind asked."
Without a second thought, Liu Erlong immediately replied:
"I know a master of martial spirit theory, he..."
But then she paused.
Ok?
Ye Qifeng noticed Liu Erlong's unusual behavior, turned to look at her, and found that her face had suddenly turned ashen and she had become somewhat melancholy.
It seems that mentioning the useless master Yu Xiaogang reminded her of something sad?
Ye Qifeng instantly understood the reason for Liu Erlong's change in expression.
However, her ashen face only lasted for a moment before Liu Erlong composed herself, took a deep breath, and continued:
"He once developed a theory of limit spirit rings, which mentioned that when a spirit master absorbs a spirit ring, each spirit ring has a limit on its lifespan."
"For example, the maximum lifespan of the first spirit ring is 423 years, the second spirit ring is 764 years, the third spirit ring is 1,760 years, the fourth spirit ring is 5,000 years, and the fifth spirit ring is 12,000 years."
"That master is known as the number one person in the Soul Master world when it comes to Martial Soul theory. He once said that every Soul Master who absorbs a Soul Ring must follow the theory of the limit Soul Ring, and it is impossible to exceed the theoretical limit."
"Because once a Soul Master absorbs a Soul Ring beyond the theoretical limits of Soul Mastery, their body may not be able to withstand the enormous energy impact of the Soul Ring, resulting in a severe backlash. At best, this will cause serious injury and damage to their foundation; at worst, it will cause their body to explode and die. Therefore, Soul Masters who absorb Soul Rings beyond the theoretical limits often meet a very tragic end."
"But, Xiao Feng, your spirit rings..."
Liu Erlong stared at the five soul rings pulsating on Ye Qifeng's body. Seeing the incredible colors of the soul rings and sensing the soul power aura corresponding to those colors, she opened her mouth, speechless.
She couldn't understand it.
From Liu Erlong's description of the theory of the limits of spirit rings, Ye Qifeng could easily sense her admiration and respect for the useless master Yu Xiaogang.
However, Ye Qifeng did not interrupt her, but listened quietly to her finish speaking.
Then he spoke:
"Sister Erlong, it's true that every Soul Master has their own limit on the number of years they can absorb Soul Rings, because the limit for absorbing Soul Rings depends on the Soul Master's own talent and physique."
"Every Soul Master has a different Martial Soul and a different physique, so their ability to withstand the pressure of Soul Rings is naturally different."
"Under normal circumstances, the maximum lifespan in the theory of spirit ring limits is the best manifestation of a spirit master's talent and physique."
"The theory of spirit ring limits is common knowledge in the spirit master world. It is indeed a very useful spirit theory for the general spirit masters, and it has strong guiding value."
"but."
Ye Qifeng glanced at Liu Erlong, smiled calmly, and continued, "The theory of the limits of spirit rings is not absolute; it is not unbreakable."
"As far as I know, there are several ways to break the theory of spirit ring limits and absorb spirit rings beyond the limit age, but the conditions and requirements are all quite harsh."
"And coincidentally, I am one of those who meet the conditions and requirements, so it is not surprising that I possess a spirit ring that surpasses the theory of limits."
After hearing what Ye Qifeng said, Liu Erlong was dumbfounded.
She hadn't expected that Ye Qifeng's understanding of the Soul Ring Limit Theory was so thorough, and that much of the knowledge he possessed was something she had never even heard of before.
Especially the claim about breaking the limit of spirit rings and absorbing spirit rings beyond the limit of age.
This was the first time she had ever heard of it either.
Moreover, she was certain that even the man she longed for didn't know.
"Also, Sister Erlong, there's something I must emphasize."
Ignoring Liu Erlong's stunned expression, Ye Qifeng's face suddenly turned serious.
"What?"
Liu Erlong asked subconsciously.
"What I want to say is that the theory of the limits of martial spirits was not researched and developed by the so-called number one person in the martial spirit theory world. It is the research result of the Spirit Hall."
Ye Qifeng said seriously.
"impossible."
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong immediately retorted, "The Martial Soul Limit Theory was clearly developed by that master, how could it be the research result of the Martial Soul Hall?"
"Moreover, the theory of the limits of martial spirits is written in his book 'The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Spirits.' With the book as proof, it is definitely not false."
"Xiao Feng, you don't understand, so don't talk nonsense."
Liu Erlong frowned, her expression turning somewhat unpleasant. She looked up at Ye Qifeng and reprimanded him.
She didn't believe what Ye Qifeng said; on the contrary, she felt that he was framing her.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qifeng simply shook his head slightly.
He was not surprised by Liu Erlong's rebuttal and blame.
After all, in her eyes, the useless master Yu Xiaogang is definitely her ideal woman. If she doesn't refute him, Ye Qifeng will find it strange.
"Sister Erlong, the master you mentioned, you must be named Yu Xiaogang, right?"
Ye Qifeng asked calmly.
How did you know?
Liu Erlong was taken aback, somewhat surprised.
"Xiao Feng, do you know him?"
The next second, her eyes lit up and she asked eagerly.
"Of course I know this person. He's very famous in the field of martial spirit theory."
Ye Qifeng hummed in agreement and nodded slightly.
"Tell me about it quickly."
Liu Erlong became excited, his eyes revealing eagerness and anticipation.
After all these years, she finally heard news about that man from someone else again.
However.
next moment.
All of Liu Erlong's hopes were shattered.
What reached her ears was not news about the man, but slanderous words.
At least in her view, it was utter slander.
But then Ye Qifeng spoke up:
"Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang is nothing but a clown who was kicked out of the Spirit Hall, a useless grandmaster who only cares about fame and reputation."
"His so-called masterpiece, 'The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul,' actually has little value."
"Almost every Soul Master who has studied the theory of Martial Souls knows that the knowledge of Martial Souls written in it is nothing more than common sense, wrong inferences, or even plagiarized knowledge, and has no value at all."
"The title of 'Number One Theorist in Spirit Theory' is just something Yu Xiaogang himself has given himself. The Spirit Hall, as the representative force of the vast number of spirit masters in Douluo Continent, has never acknowledged this title."
"Perhaps Yu Xiaogang has some understanding and research on martial spirit theory, but has his martial spirit theory made any contribution to the world of soul masters?"
No.
"So, does he deserve the title of the number one expert in martial soul theory in the world of soul masters?"
"He doesn't deserve it!"
"Even if the title of the number one person in the Soul Master world on Martial Soul theory exists, no matter who it is, it will never be Yu Xiaogang's turn."
"Yu Xiaogang, claiming to be the number one expert in martial spirit theory in the soul master world, goes around swindling people. It's just that the Spirit Hall doesn't bother with him."
"They actually keep using the Spirit Hall's research results to claim that they are their own findings. They are truly shameless."
"Not to mention that his knowledge of martial spirit theory almost all comes from the Spirit Hall, and he learned it there."
"Such a shameless person, haha."
"I look down on him."
Ye Qifeng spoke at length, his tone calm and indifferent, but his words conveyed a strong sense of disdain, contempt, and contempt.
His words in front of Liu Erlong were not unfounded.
First, he expressed his opinion on the useless master Yu Xiaogang, making it clear to Liu Erlong that his relationship with Yu Xiaogang could never be good.
That good-for-nothing Yu Xiaogang has always wanted to destroy the Spirit Hall, and the Spirit Hall is something I must protect.
After all, protecting the Spirit Hall was his duty.
Therefore, he will definitely deal with Yu Xiaogang in the future, and saying these words now is to let Liu Erlong be prepared in advance.
Secondly, it planted a seed of doubt in her heart, so that in the future she could break the perfect image of Yu Xiaogang in her mind, which was like a white moonlight.
Once this seed takes root and sprouts, causing cracks in that perfect image, Liu Erlong's opinion of the useless master Yu Xiaogang will inevitably change.
However, what Ye Qifeng said was actually quite unpleasant for Liu Erlong at the moment, and might provoke her or even incite her anger.
However, these words were indeed Ye Qifeng's thoughts and feelings, and what he wanted to express.
He said what he thought.
Of course, he was also prepared to face Liu Erlong's blame and anger.
"Xiao Feng, you..."
Sure enough, after hearing Ye Qifeng's words, Liu Erlong quickly showed anger on her face.
After a moment of stunned silence, her breathing became rapid, an uncontrollable anger welled up within her, and her voice suddenly rose:
"Xiao Feng, how could you slander him? He's not that kind of person."
"Sister Erlong, whether you believe it or not, what I'm saying is indeed the truth."
Ye Qifeng said calmly.
"Stop talking, I don't want to hear it."
Liu Erlong turned her face away, no longer looking at Ye Qifeng.
"All right."
Seeing that Liu Erlong was already angry, Ye Qifeng stopped saying anything.
He put away the constantly pulsating spirit rings beneath his feet and refocused on roasting the rabbit and making rabbit porridge.
Liu Erlong sat upright on the rock, his face turning pale and then flushed, sulking.
She was somewhat dissatisfied and angry that Ye Qifeng had slandered the man she loved.
Because what Ye Qifeng said was completely opposite to what the man before had told her.
She remembered that the man had said that he left Spirit City because he had been persecuted by the Spirit Hall, which coveted his research results on spirit theory and wanted to steal and seize them.
It wasn't like what Ye Qifeng said at all, so she didn't believe it.
Therefore, Liu Erlong chose to believe in the white moonlight in her heart.
A moment of silence fell over the room.
Only the crackling of burning firewood in the smokeless fire and the sizzling sound of grease dripping from the soft-boned rabbit falling into the fire occasionally rang out.
There were also strange insect chirps rising and falling in the Sunset Forest, and the intermittent roars of soul beasts in the distance.
After a moment of silence.
"Your Highness, someone is approaching this way from the depths of Sunset Forest. They are moving extremely fast. Judging from the soul power perception, they should be a Soul Douluo with a soul power level of 89."
Suddenly, a ghostly voice transmitted through soul power entered his ears.
"A Soul Douluo with a Soul Power level of 89?"
Ye Qifeng looked up in surprise and gazed into the pitch-black depths of the forest.
In the current Douluo Continent, Soul Douluo are quite rare.
Moreover, he was a peak Soul Douluo who was about to enter the Title Douluo realm.
His identity must be extraordinary.
"Can you confirm his identity?"
Ye Qifeng secretly made a few hand gestures, communicating with the ghost.
The gestures are actually a form of sign language, a communication method used by the Spirit Hall's Punishment Hall to secretly transmit information.
This is something he learned from ghosts.
Ye Qifeng had instructed Gui Mei beforehand that if there were other people around him, he would secretly communicate with them using sign language if anything happened.
Ghosts, on the other hand, use soul power to transmit sound.
"Judging from the information fed back by my spiritual perception, the newcomer's soul power feels somewhat familiar. The attributes contained within the soul power are somewhat domineering, seemingly lightning-attribute. The martial soul should be the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex."
While focusing on sensing, the ghost used its soul power to transmit a message to Ye Qifeng.
"Your Highness, it's confirmed. The visitor is Yu Luomian, the Vice Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"
A moment later, the ghost finally confirmed the identity of the newcomer.
"Hmm? A jade crown?"
Ye Qifeng was somewhat taken aback.
Of course he knew who Yu Luomian was.
He is the second-in-command of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, Yu Yuanzhen's younger brother, and Yu Xiaogang's second uncle.
Most importantly, he is Liu Erlong's biological father.
Yu Luomian suddenly appeared here
They must have come for Liu Erlong, right?
