54: Chapter 54 The 100,000-Year-Old Skull of Wisdom, Ning Rongrong's Invitation

At night, Su Ling was Cultivating as usual; he didn't visit Liu Erlong every day.

Even if he wasn't Cultivating, Liu Erlong still had to, so they couldn't spend every night together.

"System, give me the Cultivation results of the goddesses for the past two months," Su Ling said in a low voice.

A surge of energy flowed into Su Ling's body. Especially after Liu Erlong's affection level reached 96 points, 50% of her daily Cultivation results would be fed back to Su Ling.

At this moment, Liu Erlong was already an 81st-level Spirit Douluo, so 50% of her daily results was quite terrifying.

This was one of the reasons why Su Ling didn't disturb Liu Erlong every day.

After this period of Cultivation, Su Ling's own Soul Power had already reached the Peak of Level 53, and under this energy, he broke through the Bottleneck almost instantly to reach Level 54.

It didn't end at Level 54; Su Ling's Soul Power continued to increase.

Level 54.5, Peak of Level 54, and it only stopped once Su Ling broke through to Level 55.

"Sister Liu's results are really good."

With Liu Erlong fully Cultivating for two months, 50% of that was significant. The key was that Liu Erlong's own talent wasn't bad, and the dragon flame flower had further enhanced her talent, so her Cultivation speed wasn't slow.

This 50% over two months was almost equivalent to a talented Spirit King Cultivating at full capacity for at least half a year.

Plus the Cultivation results from Zhuqing, Rongrong, Jiang Zhu, Feng Yuer, and Huo Wu over the past two months, it would be strange if Su Ling hadn't broken through to Level 55.

"Now there is less than eleven months left until the Advanced Spirit Master Tournament. If I improve by one level every two months on average, I should be able to reach Level 60 before it starts."

From now on, the benefits of binding goddesses were becoming apparent.

As long as enough goddesses were bound, one could reach Level 100 just by lying down.

With Soul Power Cultivation finished, Su Ling looked at the treasure chests in the System again.

[Remaining unopened chests: White * 112, Yellow * 39, Purple * 16, Black * 8, Red * 4]

There were four red treasure chests. If he used the previous ones to exchange, getting another red treasure chest wouldn't be a problem.

Should he open them now, or keep them to exchange for a golden treasure chest?

After thinking for a while, Su Ling made his decision. He exchanged the chests, and they became the following:

[Remaining unopened chests: White * 2, Yellow * 0, Purple * 1, Black * 0, Red * 5]

"System, open all the red treasure chests," Su Ling said.

[Ding... Opened five red treasure chests. Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: 100,000-year Wisdom Skull Bone * 1, Immortal-grade Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass * 1, High-Level Protection Array * 1, Movement Technique Carefree Metamorphosis * 1 (can be directly instilled to Major Achievement), 100,000-year spirit ring * 1]

"100,000-year Wisdom Skull Bone, useful, I can use it right now."

"System, you should have brought a pair of Immortal-grade items. Just one is useless." Seeing only this one Immortal-grade item, Su Ling could only shake his head helplessly.

Fortunately, with the System's storage, the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass wouldn't spoil.

What use was the High-Level Protection Array?

Su Ling looked at the System page.

[High-Level Protection Array: Cannot be broken below Spirit Douluo level, very difficult for ordinary Spirit Douluo to break. Excellent defense, comes with simple soundproofing, illusion array, and other functions.]

"Very good, this is very useful."

Su Ling took another look and found that this High-Level Protection Array also consumed energy crystals, and it was five times more than the previous Intermediate Defensive Array.

It seemed he would have to take a trip to the Star Luo Empire; that was an ancient site Liu Erlong had visited before.

The 100,000-year spirit ring would be useful later; it was also necessary.

He then looked at this movement technique, Carefree Metamorphosis.

"System, instill it directly!" Su Ling said.

In an instant, streams of memories flooded into Su Ling's mind. Carefree Metamorphosis was a higher-level advanced version of Carefree Travel. Originally, Su Ling's Carefree Travel hadn't even reached Major Achievement.

But now, Su Ling skipped Carefree Travel and advanced directly to Major Achievement in Carefree Metamorphosis.

Su Ling felt as if he had lived a lifetime somewhere, studying Carefree Metamorphosis for decades.

Time passed in a flash, and after Su Ling regained consciousness, he realized not much time had passed.

"Next is the 100,000-year Wisdom Skull Bone."

Su Ling pushed open the door and posted a note on the door saying he was in seclusion.

This was a head Spirit Bone after all. Su Ling thought about it and decided to add an insurance measure, just in case someone walked in by accident.

Absorbing a head Spirit Bone was the most dangerous among all Spirit Bones, so he had to be careful.

After getting ready, Su Ling took the Wisdom Skull Bone directly from the System.

Then he started to absorb it immediately.

In the blink of an eye, it was dawn. Feng Yuer was the first to come to bring Su Ling breakfast. After finding the note, she stopped immediately, then found a cushion and sat on it, seemingly intending to Guard there the whole time.

At noon, Ning Rongrong came, but she left somewhat disappointed upon finding that Su Ling was in seclusion.

Not long after, Zhuqing also took a look. She just felt that since Su Ling was already so strong and still working hard to Cultivate, and she had wanted to spend time with him, it really wasn't appropriate, so she went back to continue working hard on her Cultivation.

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Su Ling had been in seclusion in his room for ten days. During these ten days, Ning Rongrong came to check every day, while Feng Yuer had been guarding there the whole time.

"Finally finished." Su Ling ended his Cultivation and let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, Su Ling's Mental Energy had materialized, and the sign of materialization was Mental Energy greater than Level 80.

Su Ling wasn't quite sure of the exact level, so he looked at his System attribute panel.

Age: 20

Spirit: Primordial War Bow (embryo, incomplete)

Soul Power: Level 56

Mental Energy: Level 90

spirit rings: Yellow (320 years, Water attribute), Yellow (652 years, Wood attribute), Purple (1358 years, Fire attribute), Black (20,086 years, Gold-Earth attribute), Black (35,680 years, Wind-Thunder dual attributes)

Spirit Bone: external Spirit Bone Golden Dragon Armor (20,086 years), external Spirit Bone six-winged wind-thunder wings (35,680 years), Wisdom Skull Bone (100,000 years)

Cultivation Technique: Concentration Technique (Second Layer), Supreme Hunyuan Scripture Basic Upper Volume

Skills: Carefree Metamorphosis (Major Achievement), Eight Desolations Fist (Major Achievement)

After absorbing this Spirit Bone, his Soul Power didn't increase much, only by one level.

However, his Mental Energy improved the most, actually reaching the level of Level 90.

In the novel, Tang San also reached the Mental Energy level of a Spirit Douluo after absorbing that tens-of-thousands-year Wisdom Skull Bone.

The effect of Su Ling's 100,000-year one was much better, but unfortunately, it still stopped at the limit of Level 90.

Besides the improvement in Mental Energy, this Wisdom Skull Bone also brought Su Ling two skills.

After all, it was a 100,000-year Spirit Bone.

One skill was the Eye of True Sight, which combined with the medicinal effect of the Wangchuan Qiushui Dew absorbed previously, could break through all illusions, disguises, and obstructions, allowing him to see the true form and essence of things.

The other skill had a simple name: Spirit Light, which instantly magnified Mental Energy to attack the opponent's Soul.

The disadvantage was that this skill consumed a lot of his own Mental Energy. If he encountered someone with stronger Mental Energy than himself, he might suffer a backlash, which would not be worth it.

The strength of the Spirit Light varied and could be calculated based on the amount of Mental Energy Su Ling invested.

Now, if Su Ling used Spirit Light to attack, as long as he hit the target, he could definitely kill someone of the same level instantly, and fighting across levels became even easier.

"Time to go out and get some fresh air." Su Ling got up and stretched, also noticing Feng Yuer who had been guarding outside the door.

"Cultivation is over. Yuer, you should go back and rest too. You've worked hard." Su Ling said.

"Okay, Boss. Actually, I wasn't working hard at all." Feng Yuer replied, then prepared to leave without saying anything more.

It just so happened that Ning Rongrong arrived at this moment. Seeing that Feng Yuer was about to leave, a smile finally appeared on her face.

"Sister Yuer, has Brother Su finished his Cultivation?" Ning Rongrong asked.

"He has finished." Feng Yuer responded directly.

"That's great."

At this moment, Su Ling also pushed open the door and came out to breathe some fresh air.

"Rongrong, you're here too."

"Hmph, I've been here for ten days, coming every single day. Brother Su, you Cultivated for too long this time."

Su Ling said: "It has been a while. Rongrong, what do you need me for?"

"Brother Su, you promised me last time that I could go to my Sect to take a look. I've already become a Spirit Ancestor, so I want to go back. Can you accompany me?" Ning Rongrong said with a shy face.

Her goal was very simple: she wanted Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo to see Su Ling's potential.

"Sure, I promised you, so I definitely won't go back on my word. When are we going?" Su Ling said.

"That's great! Today would be perfect, is that okay?" Ning Rongrong came up and held Su Ling's hand; she had been impatient for a long time.
