Chapter 153: Return to the Divine Wind Academy
"The first soul ring has exceeded 800 years, and the second soul ring has also reached the thousand-year level."
Looking at his first soul ring, which had changed from yellow to deep yellow, and the second soul ring, which had evolved from deep yellow to light purple, Mo Hui couldn't help showing a trace of surprise on his face.
The first ring was the core of Mo Hui's two self-created soul skills, and the second was the foundation of his speed. Their enhancement would undoubtedly bring a significant boost to his combat power.
He casually tested his enhanced abilities. With a simple wave of his hand, a ten-foot-long green wind blade slashed out and streaked across the dense forest like a sharp line of light.
A moment later, trees nearly a hundred meters away toppled neatly to the ground, leaving mirror-like, smooth cuts.
Seeing this, Mo Hui nodded in satisfaction. After the ring's age increased by 500 years, the power of the wind blade had increased by about 30%. While not overwhelming, it was still impressive for a hundred-year-level soul ring.
Then, his body turned into a green blur, darting through the forest.
Mo Hui's second ring originally came from a 900-year-old Qinghong Falcon. With the 500-year increase from the Sea God's reward, it had now reached 1,400 years, stepping firmly into the thousand-year threshold—a significant upgrade from the hundred-year stage.
Mo Hui was especially curious about how this had improved Lightning Flash.
Soon, he completed his tests.
Unfortunately, the speed boost of Lightning Flash remained at 300%, likely because it was already close to perfection.
However, the duration had increased from 3 seconds to 5 seconds, a 60% increase.
And when used by Mo Hui, now a level 68 Soul Emperor, the effect lasted up to 8 seconds.
Eight seconds may seem short, but for high-speed combatants like Mo Hui and Pidgeot, it was more than enough—most battles could be ended in less time.
As for his remaining four soul rings—each at the thousand- or ten-thousand-year level—the additional 500 years had limited impact, merely reducing soul power consumption slightly.
At this moment, Poseidon appeared again, holding a scepter, and said,
> "This is the reward granted by the Lord of the Sea—a God-bestowed soul ring."
As she spoke, she flipped her hand, revealing a glowing golden bead.
> "This... is the God-bestowed soul ring?"
Mo Hui took it and studied it carefully, eyes filled with curiosity.
Unlike ordinary soul rings, this type generates a soul ring tailored to the user's body and provides the most suitable soul skill for them.
After observing it for a while, Mo Hui put it away, then bowed to Poseidon and said:
> "Senior Poseidon, I have to leave for a while."
> "Leave? But don't forget your third trial—"
Poseidon was momentarily stunned. The third Sea God Trial—Tidal Body Refining—was extremely time-consuming.
If Mo Hui left now, it meant a longer delay. If he took too long, he might even fail the third trial.
Mo Hui calmly replied:
> "I know. But this time, I must return to the continent to complete something far more important to me than the Sea God's trials.
So, can Senior Poseidon please show me the direction back to the mainland?"
> More important than the Sea God's Nine Trials?
Poseidon frowned, then suddenly widened her eyes, a flash of realization in her expression.
> Don't tell me... he's planning to take another god's trial—at the same time?!
It was already rare to pass one god's trial, and attempting two simultaneously? That was nearly impossible.
Still, if Mo Hui truly intended to undergo the Wind God's test, Poseidon could not stop him. She retrieved a sea chart from her soul guide and handed it to him.
> "This is a map of Sea God Island and the surrounding sea area. It shows the route to the continental edge. Follow this, and you'll reach land."
Mo Hui took the chart, studied it, and nodded.
> "Thank you, Senior Poseidon. I will return as soon as possible."
The first Wind God Trial had a strict deadline of one month, and Mo Hui had already spent 18 days completing the Sea God's second trial. He had to reach Hurricane Canyon immediately.
> "Come out, Pidgeot!"
With that, Pidgeot appeared, and Mo Hui leapt onto its back. In a flash of green light, the two vanished into the sky.
Soaring above the sea, Mo Hui unfolded the map and guided Pidgeot toward the mainland.
Thanks to flying through the air—and Pidgeot's extreme speed—Mo Hui was able to ignore the dangerous zones, including that of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, a million-year-level soul beast.
Soon, Mo Hui crossed a vast portion of the sea and arrived at Hanhai City.
From there, he switched maps—putting away Poseidon's sea chart and pulling out a continental map.
His next destination: Hurricane Canyon, the location of Divine Wind Academy.
This time, he didn't rely on just Tailwind but instead activated Lightning Flash and Delta Airflow for extreme speed.
This consumed immense soul power. In the past, he could only sustain this for short bursts.
However, his current Delta Airflow had been improved to absorb ambient wind energy and replenish his soul power. His reserves now lasted longer.
Though rest was still needed between bursts, the restoration time had also shortened significantly.
Thanks to this combination, Mo Hui compressed a journey of several months into just four to five hours—
And in no time, he arrived at Divine Wind Academy.
