Path of the Warrior: My Soul Ring Can Be Fused Indefinitely! - Chapter 13

Chapter 13: Body Cultivation Is Useless?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Today was the day for the disciples of the Pure Wind Clan to cultivate Soul Dao.

The Pure Wind Clan mainly focused on Body Cultivation, but a portion of the disciples would awaken their Soul Rings every year. To prevent neglecting them, the clan would arrange for some elders to teach them the cultivation method of Soul Dao.

Li Ran was no exception.

“Let’s go through the formalities.”

He did not place any hopes on cultivating Soul Dao. Since he only had one Soul Ring, if he did not absorb Soul Rings and fuse them with his own, his strength would not increase at all!

On the other hand, Body Cultivation gave him a lot of surprises.

After undergoing tempering, his pure physical strength had become very shocking. He could carry a weight of 1,000 kilograms with one hand. He could not be compared to the disciples of the Pure Wind Clan who cultivated their bodies all year round but among the disciples of the same age, his physical strength could not be compared to..

Li Ran walked slowly to the training field. The 30 over disciples who had awakened their Soul Rings in the sacrificial hall that day were almost all present. There were not many elders present, only three of them.

“I didn’t expect Li Ran to come as well. Didn’t he cultivate with the chief?”

A disciple saw Li Ran walking over and asked in surprise.

“It’s possible that he cultivates Soul Dao and Body Cultivation together, right?”

Among them, there were disciples who had only awakened two Soul Rings. They had the same mentality, so they understood Li Ran’s actions better.

“He only has a ten-year-old Soul Ring, and he’s trying to cultivate Soul Dao? My *ss!”

“Hahahahaha, don’t even mention it. That trash seems to have a better physique after his Body Cultivation.”

“What’s the point of having a good physique? He’s a useless Soul Warrior who doesn’t have any strength at all!”

A group of disciples were whispering to each other. When they saw Li Ran approaching the training field, they changed the topic.

No matter how bad Li Ran was, he was still the son of the chief. Moreover, judging from the chief’s attitude, it was highly likely that he would push aside all objections and let Li Ran become the next chief.

For various reasons, many of the disciples present stopped mocking Li Ran after he arrived.

Of course, apart from a few people.

“Li Ran’s just trash. What’s the use of Body Cultivation? In the future, he’ll only be able to support the strength of a Great Soul Master at most. How can he compare to you, Senior Brother!”

A disciple standing next to Li Rui was also a disciple of the first elder but in terms of seniority, he was inferior to Li Rui.

“Junior Brother, you can’t say that. The path of Body Cultivation might not be inferior to the path of Soul Dao.”

Li Rui’s lips curled into a smile, causing others to feel as if he was bathed in a spring breeze.

That disciple did not retort.

The path of Body Cultivation had long been cut off!

How could there still be any future!

His aptitude was not considered bad among the disciples of the Pure Wind Clan. His luck was not bad. That day, he had awakened four Soul Rings in the sacrificial hall!

If he cultivated Soul Dao step by step, he could become a Soul Grandmaster!

He was luckier than many disciples of the clan. The others had cultivated on the path of Body Cultivation for hundreds of years. If they were lucky, very few of them could become Great Soul Masters, and very few of them could become Soul Grandmasters!

On the other hand, under normal circumstances, that disciple would be able to smoothly become a Soul Grandmaster in less than 50 years!

This was the most obvious gap between Soul Dao and Body Cultivation!

That disciple admitted that he could not compare to Li Rui, but he still had a great advantage when compared to Li Ran.

Li Ran was nothing!

That disciple glanced at Li Ran from the side and seemed to let out a cold snort from his nose.

‘Where did that random dude come from?’

Li Ran felt the malicious gaze from the disciple and looked over. He was first stunned, then dazed.

‘Is he someone by Li Rui’s side?

‘Who is he?’

In front of the training field stood three elders. The leader among them swept his gaze across the disciples and spoke.

“Since everyone’s here, I won’t be long-winded. Let’s get straight to the point.”

The leader of the elders was a rather dignified elder in the clan. He had always been in charge of the disciples of the clan who cultivated Soul Dao.

“There’s no need for me to say more. All the disciples present should know the difference between the paths of Soul Dao and Body Cultivation. I’ve gathered everyone here today so that before you officially cultivate Soul Dao, the two other elders and I can guide you on the correct path!”

The disciples present realized the importance of this. All of them were serious and no longer looked like they were fooling around.

Even Li Ran could not help but perk up his ears.

“A few days ago, all of you here have awakened their Soul Rings. There are 500-year Beast Soul Rings, 100-year Weapon Soul Rings, and all sorts of Soul Rings. No matter how many Soul Rings you’ve awakened, as long as it’s the first Soul Ring you bind, it’ll be known as the Innate Soul Ring!

“Innate Soul Rings are very important, especially the age of an Innate Soul Ring and the Soul Skill that comes with it. It’s no less important than the number of Soul Rings. Every breakthrough in cultivation level is a very important strengthening of an Innate Soul Ring!

“For someone with an Innate Soul Ring with a high age, even if one hasn’t reached the realm of a Soul King, after many rounds of strengthening, the strength that one unleashes from using an Innate Soul Ring is comparable to that of a Soul King!”

Once those words were said, there was a huge sensation.

Li Ran also had a shocked expression on his face.

The age of an Innate Soul Ring was more important than he had imagined. It was related to the speed of one’s cultivation and more importantly, it was related to one’s strength. It was directly related to one’s strength!

“Elder, can an Innate Soul Ring with an age of ten years defeat a Soul Cultivator?”

The disciple standing next to Li Rui could not help but ask with a smile.

Everyone present knew who he was referring to.

Who else could it be other than Li Ran?

In fact, the disciples of the Pure Wind Clan did not pay much attention to a Soul Ring with an age of ten years in the beginning. Instead, they paid more attention to having just one Soul Ring.

After hearing what the elder said, when the other disciples connected it to what the disciple asked after that, they laughed out loud.

The little misgivings they had toward Li Ran not long ago instantly vanished into thin air!

They thought that he was merely a Soul Warrior who only had a ten-year-old Soul Ring, and a trash who could only choose Body Cultivation!

All the disciples present unanimously believed that even if Li Ran walked the path of Body Cultivation, he would still be a trash, and his strength would never be as good as theirs.

The disciples’ eyes were filled with ridicule, and they did not try to hide it at all. The mocking laughter continued to fill the air.

At the spur of the moment…

A clear and cold voice was heard coming from the crowd.

“I should be able to beat you.”

Everyone looked toward the source of the voice in surprise. When they saw that the voice came from Li Ran, they were dumbfounded for a moment before laughing louder than before.

“Does Li Ran know what he’s saying? He dares to challenge Li Hao? Isn’t he courting death?”

“That’s right. Li Hao has awakened four Soul Rings, and it’s a 300-year-old Weapon Soul Ring!”

“Does Li Ran really think that he’s invincible after tempering his body for a few days? He still dares to challenge others? I bet he’ll be defeated by Li Hao in less than three moves!”

“…”

Those disciples did not mind watching the show. They were happy to see Li Ran make a fool of himself.

That disciple called Li Hao had a contemptuous look. He disdained to fight with Li Ran, whom he regarded as trash.

However…

He glanced at the disciples on the stage. It seemed like it would not be bad to use this opportunity to brush up his presence and raise his reputation in the clan.

At the same time, he could suppress Li Ran!

He had long disliked Li Ran. ‘How could such a trash become the chief of the Pure Wind Clan in the future?

‘That position should belong to Li Rui!’

Li Hao looked at the youth as if he was looking at an ant. He sneered in his heart.

‘Body tempering?

‘In the end, it can’t change the fact that you’re trash!’

“You want to challenge me?”

The corners of Li Hao’s mouth curled into a cold smile.

“It’s not a challenge.”

The young man opposite him suddenly laughed.

“I think you deserve a beating. I should’ve given someone like you some suffering a long time ago.”

The crowd was silent. They did not know whether to laugh at Li Ran or feel sorry for him.

Li Hao was the disciple of the first elder. He had a good aptitude and was famous for his ruthless methods in the clan.

Every move he made would be met with blood!

This time, Li Ran was going to suffer.
