Chapter 220: Little gold monkey

They bade farewell and left in their respective modes of transport. Lan Xuanyu’s team naturally went back to the academy directly.

Their gains from the Spirit Ascension Platform this time were quite bountiful. Once they returned to the dormitory, all three of them couldn’t wait to release their Martial Souls to look at the changes in their Soul Rings.

The Coin of Summoning was brought out and the Gate of Summoning appeared after that. Qian Lei did not summon immediately, but fixed his eyes on himself instead.

Two purple Soul Rings hovered around his body—purple, 1,000-year! That’s right, both his Soul Rings actually evolved to the thousand-year mark.

That 10,000-year Tree Demon’s power could be described as rich and generous. Even when it was split with five people, each of them still got quite a bit, and coupled with the previous accumulation, it was enough to make a breakthrough.

Liu Feng released his White Dragon Spear too, and the exact same thing happened. Two purple Soul Rings surfaced, and both had evolved to the thousand-year mark.

Before they went to the Spirit Ascension Platform, they wanted to increase the cultivation of their Soul Rings, but it was quite a leap to evolve from 100 years to 1,000 years. Also, they didn’t know how many soul beasts they had to kill before they could reach 1,000-year. Hence, they didn’t have high expectations. At this moment, they actually managed to achieve that, so how could they contain their excitement?

Lan Xuanyu released his gold and silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass too. He raised both arms, and his two Soul Rings on each hand hovered around him. Both Qian Lei and Liu Feng were looking at him with anticipation; however, his Soul Rings weren’t any different from before. They were still yellow.

“What happened? Both of us upgraded, why are your Soul Rings still 100-years?” Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu, surprised.

Lan Xuanyu replied calmly, “Perhaps it’s because I’m a Twin Martial Soul, so I would need more energy for the cultivation of my Soul Rings to improve. Hence, they’re still 100 years.”

Although that was what he said, he already guessed that this would happen.

Previously at the Spirit Ascension Platform, when he was absorbing the energy, each time he absorbed, he could feel the increase in the energy of his gold and silver vortex bloodline. This sort of improvement also improved his Soul Power as well. The power of the bloodline was strong, and after absorbing the energy of that 10,000-year Tree Demon, Lan Xuanyu even felt the aura of his bloodline was full, which made him feel like releasing his Duo Blue Silver Grass Fusion, Martial Soul Fusion technique.

However, these energies clearly did not enter the Soul Rings.

He already knew long ago that his condition wasn’t the same as everyone else’s. When he first got his Martial Soul, his Soul Ring appeared automatically; he didn’t have to fuse any Spirit Soul. In the beginning, it was white, and when he reached the second ring cultivation, his Soul Rings became yellow. Yellow Soul Rings meant 100-year! However, he didn’t know how this 100-year came about either. It seemed to have upgraded along with the increase of Soul Rings.

And he also anticipated that his Soul Rings couldn’t upgrade in the Spirit Ascension Platform. Lan Xuanyu only wanted to find out whether the color of his Soul Rings would have any changes when his cultivation reached the third ring.

After his Yellow Soul Ring, his control of the water element was much stronger, and it was indeed the effect of the 100-year Soul Ring.

Seeing Liu Feng and Qian Lei’s 1,000-year Soul Rings, he was obviously envious, but due to the special nature of his abilities, he didn’t feel bad for himself. Moreover, he still had something that was even more important to do right now.

“Stand back a little,” Lan Xuanyu said to Liu Feng and Qian Lei. He then concentrated and tried looking for something in his body.

Very soon, he could feel its presence. Under the guidance of his Spiritual Power, the gold and silver vortex in his chest constricted at first, then released all of a sudden. A light ray shot out of Lan Xuanyu’s chest and landed in front of him.

Qian Lei and Liu Feng only saw a flash of gold light before a little gold monkey appeared before them. That little ape was only one chi tall, but its eyes were filled with intelligence. The moment it appeared, it immediately turned to Lan Xuanyu as if it wanted to curry favor and showed its teeth. It also had gold light flickering in its eyes as it blinked.

“What’s going on here?” Qian Lei looked at Lan Xuanyu in shock. “Is that your Spirit Soul? I didn’t see you release it before.”

Lan Xuanyu obviously knew that he didn’t have any Spirit Soul, but he didn’t have an explanation. As his unique condition got weirder and weirder, he continued to have many doubts in his heart. However, there were some things that were too difficult to explain. Being different could be known as gifted, but if one was too different, then there was a high chance of becoming an experimental subject.

“En. It’s considered my Spirit Soul. It seemed like it had grown, so I let it out to take a look.”

As he spoke, he waved towards that little gold ape and it leaped up with a “swish”, landing on his shoulder. It even rubbed his head, let out a “zhi zhi” sound, and gave an adorable face.

The corners of Lan Xuanyu’s mouth twitched. Through the communication at the spiritual level, he could already feel where this little monkey came from. This self-invited guest was that Gold Silk Ape that fought against Bing Tianliang’s team with them!

Lan Xuanyu used his Martial Soul Fusion technique at the last moment during that battle and perished together with Yu Tian. This Gold Silk Ape, which was supposed to belong to the simulated world, actually chose to follow him. It turned itself into energy and entered his gold and silver vortex. One could even say that he was directly absorbed into his body by his Martial Soul Fusion technique, wrapped up, and taken out of the Soul World. Back in the real world, he had also become a part of his body. In a certain sense, it was also like a Spirit Soul, only that this Gold Silk Ape wouldn’t provide him with a Soul Ring. Instead, it was more like a parasite taking advantage of him by living in him.

From simulation to reality, its original 3,000-year cultivation had disappeared and it became akin to an embryo that still had a bit of intelligence from before.

Lan Xuanyu absorbed a lot of energy at the Spirit Ascension Platform that could nourish Spirit Souls and Spirit Rings, and it absorbed a portion of it, which was why it was reborn and became an existence akin to that of a Spirit Soul. However, the current Gold Silk Ape was at the level of a young life, it didn’t even have the power of a 10-year soul beast.

It could be considered as an uninvited evil guest. Lan Xuanyu could feel that if he decided to reject it, he could chase it out of his body directly, but doing so would cause it to disappear very quickly and no longer exist in the world because its didn’t have a corporeal existence. Only by clinging onto him and absorbing the power of his bloodline could it survive and evolve.

Lan Xuanyu didn’t have a good or bad impression of this Gold Silk Ape. He only thought that it was pretty smart and was easier to communicate with than other ordinary soul beasts. At this moment, although it was very weak, its memory still remained. It used its emotions to convey to Lan Xuanyu that it still possessed the innate talent it previously had in the Soul World. It even brought along the Gold-eyed Leopard’s Gold-eyed Stare ability with it. At that time, he felt that following Lan Xuanyu was the most promising option, so he threw himself in without hesitation.

What should he do? Get rid of it? If he got rid of it, this Gold Silk Ape would die, which was why it kept trying to curry favor with Lan Xuanyu.

Without considering too much, Lan Xuanyu decided to keep it. Firstly, no matter what, it was still a life and it even came all the way from the simulated world to the real world.

What did this mean? It meant that even if it was a simulated existence, from a certain sense, it was still a body of energy. Since he could bring the Gold Silk Ape over, would it be possible to bring over a stronger soul beast from the Soul World through this method and let it become his Spirit Soul in the future?
