CH 5: New cultivation technique

(third person POV)

Xuan Zi continued with a thoughtful look on his old and messy face :"there are quite a number of soul beasts that have certain abilities in specific body parts, so if Ali is actually able to copy them, he might actually be able to copy those abilities!"

Everybody present looked at Ali in amazement before Mu En interrupted :"juts like a soul bone, huh? But forget it for now.

Just talking about it and imagining won't give us any answers. We will test it out in the future, but I recommend that Ali should absorb his first soul ring first.

After all, we don't have any knowledge on how Ali's third martial soul works. Maybe if he is too weak, the copying process will fail and he will be harmed.

So the best option is for Ali to get his first soul ring before trying to copy any abilities. So let's leave it at that first.

By the way, we haven't even checked Ali's soul power level yet. Him having soul power isn't a worry, but I wonder what the innate soul power of someone with triple martial souls will be."

They all nodded before Xuan Zi took out a soul power measuring tool and held it for Ali to take :"here, just put your hand on it and inject your soul power into it."

Ali nodded as he grabbed the ball which was as small as a pingpong ball :'heh, isn't it obvious that I will have level 10 soul power?'

This isn't the era of Tang San where the balls were the size of basketballs and the soul power had to be measured with how bright the ball became.

After Ali injected his soul power into the little ball according to how Xuan Zi guided him to, a light appeared on top of the ball as the number 10 appeared.

<Before you say :"oh how can his soul power be just 10 when he has three martial souls?!" Or something, the snake is very weak at the moment.

Even though its ability is powerful, itself is still very weak. And I didn't want Ali to be too op. Before you complain about the snake's ability being too op, I have put restrictions on it, just wait for when I will explain them. And I wanted mc to struggle at least a little bit instead of just bitch slapping everyone>

Mu En nodded with a smile :"as expected. With three martial souls, with two of them having ultimate attributes, it was expected to be very high.

By the way, Ali, which one of your martial souls do you choose to attach your soul rings too? After all, you already know about the advantage of twin martial souls compared to normal soul masters. So which one do you choose?"

Ali scratched his head with a troubled look before he sighed :"actually, grandpa, I have a better idea.

Let me explain first, then comment on it, okay? Actually, I want to cultivate all three of my martial souls at the same time.

There's of course a reason. Because I'm not planning on killing a soul beast to absorb its soul ring.

But I have a better way in getting a soul ring. In this way, not only will I not kill a soul beast, but my soul ring will actually have the ability to get stronger and have its age increased!"

At first, when they heard that he actually wanted to cultivate all of his martial souls at the same time, they were taken aback a little.

After all, despite just being 6 years old, the child of Shrek school has proven to be very smart despite being very childish.

That's why they were surprised when they heard him, who knows about twin martial souls and their advantages, say that he actually doesn't want to use that advantage.

And when they heard him say that he actually wasn't planning on killing a soul beast to absorb its soul ring, they thought that he might just be teasing them.

However, when he said that he has another way that not only doesn't require him to kill a soul beast, but also allows him to increase his soul ring's age, they were all confused.

Xuan Zi raised a confused eyebrow at the child beside him :"little brat, what the hell are you talking about?

Since thousands of years ago, nobody has been able to problem of needing to kill a soul beast to gain a soul ring.

How do you, a 6 years old brat, actually have a way that let's you gain a soul ring without killing a soul beast, but let's you increase its age?"

Ali rolled his eyes at the old man as he explained :"remember that time when sister Xiaotao had to gain her third soul ring, and I asked you to take me with her so I could see?"

Xuan Zi nodded with a confused face :"well, when I saw sister Xiaotao absorbing the soul ring, something just... Clicked inside of my head.

I didn't say it back then because I didn't know how to bring up the topic. But when that feeling of something being unlocked happened, information actually appeared in my brain.

And what those information were also appeared in my head. Those information, were a way to absorb a soul ring without killing a soul beast."

Hearing him, all of them grew serious as Xuan Zi and My En looked at each other :"can it be because of his..."

Mu En looked at Ali as he nodded at him :"Ali, can you please explain it to us in details, please? After all, we have to see if it's true or not."

Ali nodded back as he explained :"basically, instead of killing the soul beast to gain its soul ring, it's a way to make a life contract with them.

The reason why I say it's a life contract, is because if after a soul master and a soul beast agree to this contract, they will be bound to each other.

If one of the two dies, the other will also die with him or her. Making it so that this contract won't be a master slave contract.

In this process, the soul master first must get the approval of the soul beast which is as strong as him, weaker, or at least not that much stronger.

Because just like how the normal soul ring is absorbed, if the soul beast is way more powerful, the soul master's body won't be able to handle the energy and will die.

After the soul master has the approval of the soul beast, the soul master must chant a special saying which will allow the contract to be formed.

After chanting, the soul master will give a drop of blood of his or her own body to the soul beast, which will result in the contract being formed.

But you see, it's not a simple matter of the soul master gaining a soul ring, but the soul beast will also benefit from this contract.

Once the contract is done and complete, the cultivation speed of the soul beast will skyrocket. To the point where it maybe be able to raise its age by hundreds in a matter of months!

Also, not only will the soul master gain a soul skill, but the soul beast will also gain a skill! With the age of the soul beast rising, the soul master's soul ring will also get stronger.

But there's a limit according to the soul master's level. Just like how the first soul ring can only be less than 500 years old normally, the soul beast can't raise its age more than the soul master's limit.

However, there's no need to worry about being stuck at a certain level. Because just like how the cultivation speed of the soul speed increases, the soul master's talent will also increase!

Meaning that even if a soul master's talent is very poor, he or she will at least be a normal talent after making a bond with one or two soul beasts.

But also, in exchange for raising the soul beast's cultivation speed, the soul master's life span will also increase by a lot with each soul beast.

Making it possible for a normal soul master to be able to live for a few hundred years by bonding with a single soul beast!

And one more thing, once the soul beast reaches the century millennium age, it won't go through the tribulation!

Not just that, after the soul beast reaches the century millennium age, it will give another soul ring, and there won't be a limit to its age anymore!

Meaning that a single soul master can bond with 6 or 7 soul beasts in their lifetime. But having bonded with too many soul beasts isn't exactly good, because it will also hurt the soul master. And well, this is the way I want to cultivate."

Many expressions appeared on everyone's face as Ali talked, but all of them were shocked.

After all, such a way was truly possible, it would be too magical. Not only would the soul master become a lot stronger because of having a partner, there won't be a need to kill the soul beasts anymore.

That means that the problem of the conflict between humans and soul beasts can actually be solved along with the soul beasts going extinct!

Mu En, who would very rarely grow serious, had an extremely serious face as he looked at Ali :"Ali, are you serious? Are you sure this... Technique is possible and won't harm neither parties?"

Even though they knew how playful and childish Ali was, they also knew that he would never lie about something serious.

So they grew even more serious as Ali nodded seriously :"yes, grandpa. As I told you, this was just a simple summary.

The knowledge and information in my brain is way too detailed for it to be a lie. And you know that I won't say something unless I'm very sure about it."

Everybody turned to Mu En, waiting to see what he would say. With a serious but calm face, Mu En urged Ali to continue :"Ali, tell us EVERYTHING about this information, even the details.

If what you say is actually true, then it will definitely change the continent forever. After all, if it's true, with its benefits for both soul masters and soul beasts, even soul beasts will search for soul masters to bond with.

The problem of soul beast is that their cultivation speed is extremely slow. So they can't grow strong in a short time.

And because of this, the number of strong soul beasts gets lower and lower because of soul masters' need for soul rings.

But if this technique is true, then the problem between the soul beasts and the soul masters will finally be solved."

<Guys, Ali won't be teaching anyone this technique except Ma Xiaotao till he is very strong, like soul saint or something, so don't worry. and for you all who are confused, basically, it's a more complicated version of Pokemon. and if you pokemon dies, you die with it.>

Ali nodded with an excited smile as they all walked towards the table in and sat around it before Ali started to explain in details on the process, benefits, and results.

He honestly didn't care that much about the problem between the soul master's and soul beasts, he just wanted them to agree to him taking this path.

He just wanted to get as strong as possible. And what was a better way than having a personal team of soul beasts?

He didn't give a single fuck about soul beasts going extinct or whatever, he just wanted power. <Vergil would be proud>

And he wasn't planning on spreading this technique anytime soon at all. You have to know, if this technique was known, then people would be desperately looking for those strong and rare soul beasts.

So, he wasn't planning on letting other people take the good ones first. And there was also the upcoming war again Sun Moon Empire. What would happen if those ass hats also learned this?
