Chapter 428 – Soul Emperor Tang Yuge
TL : GoldenLung
Not to mention six-ring, Lan Xuanyu was already very satisfied to be able to break through to three-ring so quickly after coming to Shrek Academy. His next goal was to reach four-rings in his second year and improve steadily. He would be satisfied if he could break through six-ring before graduation.
A gentle halo of light slowly appeared next to Tang Yuge. Lan Xuanyu’s perception of the elements was the clearest, and he could clearly sense that within this yellow halo, there were extremely rich earth elements. Just as Tang Yuge said, the earth and metal elements on this planet were especially rich. This mountain range was probably where the earth elements gathered the most, which explained why there were so many Earth Spirits.
Among the five elements, earth represented the middle and was the root of the five elements. Strengthening her foundation was very helpful for Tang Yuge’s cultivation. Her cultivation base was already at the peak of five-ring, so she naturally wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.
At Shrek Academy, wood spirit energy was richest. Due to the existence of the Eternal Tree, she thought that her breakthrough would be done with the help of the wood spirit energy. It was definitely a pleasant surprise to encounter a place with such dense earth spirit energy.
Gradually, the aura on Tang Yuge’s body began to change. Everyone could feel that the soul power in her body was operating faster. Her body was like a vortex that began to absorb the earth element spirit energy in the air. The yellow light gradually grew stronger.
Lan Xuanyu carefully sensed the changes in her body. A soul master was breaking through to six-ring and being able to observe her so closely was undoubtedly a good opportunity to accumulate experience.
At this moment, Tang Yuge gave him the feeling of a whale sucking in water. Her body was like a bottomless abyss as the boundless earth spirit energy entered her body and disappeared.
Furthermore, Lan Xuanyu realized that Tang Yuge’s five elements were different from his control over the elements. His control over elements was more minute and the elements would be absorbed by him directly before being converted into soul power. But her weren’t. Those earth elements would be attracted and broken by the aura of the five elements around her body and then fused into a single type of energy. It was as if they had to be refined outside her body before being absorbed by her. They would directly transform into the power of the five elements and enter her body.
Lan Xuanyu vaguely understood that Tang Yuge must have experienced a qualitative leap when she broke through to five-ring. She had all the five elements and would make them form a cycle to grow endlessly.
Her Great Five Elements Divine Light was definitely not inferior to any Martial Soul Fusion skill, and she could last for such a long time because of the endless power of her five elements.
To be able to stand out in Shrek Academy, one had truly to be an elite !
Seconds and minutes went by as Tang Yuge continued to absorb the earth spirit energy in the air. Her condition was very stable, and as the earth spirit energy in the surroundings gathered more and more, one could vaguely see a five-colored halo revolving around her lower abdomen.
Lan Xuanyu knew that she was absorbing the earth spirit energy and converting it into the other five elements spirit energy to achieve a balance between her five elements.
Earth produced metal, metal produced water, water produced wood, wood produced fire, and fire produced earth. The five elements complemented each other and reproduced endlessly!
Finally, after six hours, the five elements halo in her lower abdomen became clearer and spread throughout her entire body. The process became relatively fast. Another hour later, Tang Yuge’s entire body emitted a five-colored halo, giving off a very moving feeling.
At that moment, everyone felt as though she had grown up. She was completely different.
Suddenly, that five-colored light burst out from her body and her entire body shook slightly. Tang Yuge suddenly opened her eyes. Two colorful bolts of lightning flashed across her eyes and a low buzzing sound resounded as it vibrated around her.
She took a deep breath and suddenly shouted, “Break!”
All of a sudden, the five-colored light on her body became blazing bright and everyone else retreated at the same time.
“Boom!” A five-colored light pillar soared into the sky and broke a huge hole in the ice house. Tang Yuge let out a clear roar and her delicate body floated up slowly from the ground. She lowered her legs and stood in front of everyone.
The five-colored light was like a flame that was slowly being extinguished. Her eyes became brighter and her face was covered by a layer of golden luster.
Immediately after that, soul rings began to rise from beneath her feet. Firstly, there were four purple and one black. Following that, another black soul ring rose and merged with her original five soul rings—six soul rings!
From this moment onwards, Tang Yuge had officially become a six-ring Soul Emperor, and she was less than 15 years old.
This level of cultivation at this age was simply unimaginable in an ordinary soul master academy. In an ordinary soul master academy, it was hard to say if even the teacher had the cultivation of a six-ring Soul Emperor!
“Congratulations, senior.” Lan Xuanyu smiled.
Tang Yuge was very happy as well. She had taken advantage of this opportunity to break through and succeeded in one go. This final exam was worth it.
“Thank you everyone for watching over me. How long did it take?”
Lan Xuanyu: “Less than eight hours. Do you need some time to consolidate your cultivation base ?”
Tang Yuge shook her head and said, “Let’s go, we can’t waste time. I can consolidate it once we get back.”
“Alright.”
This time, they didn’t delay any further. It had already been over 60 hours and they still had to save at least 10 hours to return. Hence, they only had about 40 hours to collect the rare metals.
Everyone came down from the mountain peak and finally got out of the ring-shaped mountain range. The moment they got out, they immediately felt something different.
The wind in the air had become even more violent. More importantly, there was no longer ice and snow in the wind, but sand-like particles.
“It’s not sand, these are metal fragments.” Tang Yuge raised her right hand, and the fourth soul ring on her body lit up. Immediately, the particles in the air filled her hand. It was shiny and looked like metal fragments.
Tang Yuge clenched her right hand and crushed the fragments together, turning them into a small piece of metal.
“If there is a whirlwind, I’m afraid it’ll be very troublesome. The ice house might not be able to block it.” Lan Xuanyu revealed a worried expression. “Senior, let’s hurry.”
“En.” At this moment, it was Tang Yuge’s turn to walk at the front. A faint golden halo automatically appeared around her body and absorbed the metal fragments around her, preventing them from affecting the others. At the same time, she began to sense the rich metal elements beneath her.
They were currently at the intersection of two types of rare metals. However, minerals did not exist everywhere, and they could only collect them in places where the minerals were dense enough.
Everyone followed Tang Yuge. After walking for less than ten minutes, the air around them suddenly became violent.
“Ice house,” Lan Xuanyu shouted.
Dong Qianqiu and Lan Mengqin held hands and released an ice house under the enhancement of the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass.
However, everyone’s expression changed very quickly because the release speed of the ice house this time was much slower than before. The reason was very simple, the water element in the air here was much less dense than inside of the mountain range. There was ice and snow over there and it was naturally suitable to form an ice house, but that wasn’t the case here, so their speed of manifestation naturally decreased.
Lan Xuanyu realized that he had overlooked this problem. He quickly released water elements and injected them into the ice house.
But right at this moment, as the ice house gradually formed, the surrounding light suddenly became dim. The violent wind had brought along black metal fragments sweeping over to them.
