Chapter 38: ChangeBy the time Jinling woke up, two days had already passed.Over these past two days, Ye Feng had invited Ye Qingyi to come over and examine Jinling's body. After reaching the conclusion that there was no danger to her life, Ye Feng breathed a sigh of relief.During these two days, Ye Feng guarded Jinling without leaving her side, afraid that any accidents might happen.Until a murmur from Jinling sounded, drawing Ye Feng's attention over.Jinling, who had been sleeping deeply for two days, rubbed her eyes and stretched, fully displaying her petite and delicate figure.Jinling only felt that this nap was very comfortable, and her body had become much lighter.Just as she woke up, Jinling noticed Ye Feng sitting beside her."Master, why are you here?"Jinling was puzzled, but Ye Feng did not answer her question, turning to ask instead:"Ling'er, do you feel any discomfort anywhere?"Jinling did not understand why her master asked this. Having just woken up, her mind hadn't fully turned around yet. After a moment of silence, she finally remembered what she and her master had done before she fell into a deep sleep.Feeling the majestic power and tough meridians within her body, she smiled at Ye Feng and said:"Master, I feel very good right now, and I feel..."As she spoke, Jinling's expression gradually became a bit strange.Ye Feng's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked:"What's wrong? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"Jinling shook her head and said somewhat weirdly:"Master, I feel like my body seems to be cultivating spirit power autonomously."There was irrepressible joy in her tone, as well as a few traces of inexplicable worry.Hearing this, Ye Feng was startled at first. He grabbed Jinling's small hand and channeled mental force into her body to investigate the situation inside.The result greatly delighted Ye Feng. Jinling's body had actually begun to absorb spirit power autonomously, and upon Ye Feng's investigation, the meridians inside her body had completely mutated, bearing not the slightest resemblance to human meridians.The circulation route of spirit power was also completely different, yet it seemed to follow another set of rules.Ye Feng was still somewhat uneasy. He followed the meridians and the circulation route of the spirit power throughout her entire body, ensuring there was no danger before letting out a sigh of relief.The corners of Ye Feng's mouth raised, curving into a gentle smile."Ling'er, congratulations, your meridian problem has been solved. From now on, you will be an unrivaled genius."This statement was not exaggerated at all. Although her cultivation speed was not top-tier, only on par with someone having rank 7 innate spirit power, she had the advantage of automatic cultivation.While others cultivated diligently for ten hours, Jinling could leave them far behind just by eating and drinking.Hearing this, Jinling excitedly hugged Ye Feng."That's great, I can finally become stronger and finally not hold Master back."Seeing Jinling hug him, Ye Feng did not refuse. This was something worth celebrating; although Jinling didn't say it, he knew the mental pressure she had endured during this period, and he could also tell the pain she suffered when her bloodline was stimulated.The moment Jinling hugged Ye Feng, a tremendous force came from Ye Feng's waist. This force was immense, even comparable to the full-strength strike of a Beast Spirit Spirit Elder.Fortunately, after several spirit ring age upgrades and passive Spirit Ability blessings, Ye Feng's physical body had long since matched that of a Spirit Saint.Even so, Ye Feng still felt a slight pain coming over.This surprised Ye Feng endlessly. Was this strength something someone who had just awakened their Spirit not long ago could possess?It seemed that that bloodline stimulation had also greatly strengthened Jinling's physical body.One could only say, as expected of the Golden-Haired Lion Mastiff Spirit.Right at this moment, a slight creaking sound came over.The wooden bed seemed to be enduring immense pressure and finally couldn't bear the load, snapping in half from the middle.And right on the fracture of the broken wooden bed rested a pink, tender, and delicate jade foot.Ye Feng looked towards the jade foot, only to meet Jinling's stiff gaze.Ye Feng rubbed her hair, soothing her emotions. This couldn't be blamed on her; a too-rapid increase in strength in a short time would indeed lead to situations where it was uncontrollable.This required her to continuously adapt in the future and get used to this power.To prevent Jinling from losing control of her strength and destroying more furniture, Ye Feng picked her up and carried her out of the bedroom.Arriving at the study, Ye Feng took out a blackboard and a notebook.He first asked about the bodily changes after this bloodline stimulation and recorded them in the notebook.Afterwards, he brought out the blackboard and gave explanations and conjectures regarding the changes Jinling mentioned."Ling'er, are you saying that you won't be able to absorb spirit rings in the future?"Jinling nodded, a hint of confusion in her tone."Yeah, this thought suddenly popped up after I woke up, and I don't know why I would have such a thought."Ye Feng stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and said:"This thought of yours suddenly arose from your mind?"Jinling nodded."Then there are only two possibilities: one is the World rules, and the other comes from gods.""Only these two have such strange abilities."As he spoke, he took out chalk, drew a large brace on the blackboard, and wrote the two possibilities at both ends of the brace."The first possibility, World rules, is actually not far from us. For example, every ten ranks, one must absorb a spirit ring, and after absorbing a spirit ring, the effect of the Spirit Ability will surface in the mind.""Ling'er, this fits your description very well. Just like a Spirit Ability, the World rules directly mirrored your situation into your mind.""As for the second possibility... I lean more towards the first. Most of the time, gods do not pay special attention to the Douluo Continent.""One day in the God Realm is a year in the mortal World; they won't constantly watch over the continent, so this possibility is very low."Hearing the God Realm, Jinling's eyes widened as she looked at Ye Feng in disbelief."Master, have you been to the God Realm? Why do you know it so clearly?"Jinling trusted Ye Feng very much, and she was willing to believe that what Ye Feng said was true.But for Jinling, who grew up in a feudal society, awe towards gods was engraved in her bones.Hearing someone talk about gods all of a sudden and even thoroughly analyzing the characteristics of the God Realm gave her a feeling of her worldview collapsing."Silly girl, I haven't been to the God Realm, but I do know what the God Realm looks like. As for the reason, it's Master's little secret. The day you become a Titled Douluo, I will tell you."Ye Feng held his index finger in front of his lips, opened and closed his eyes, and made a somewhat playful expression.Jinling agreed somewhat reluctantly."Ahem, those things are still too early for you; you will know them in the future.""Now back to the main topic, why can't you absorb spirit rings anymore?""Regarding this doubt, I guess it's because you are now a humanoid Spirit Beast.""Majestic vitality, tyrannical strength, bizarre meridians, and that pair of beast pupils."Ye Feng took out a mirror, and Jinling took it to check the changes in herself after waking up.Her hair was still brilliant golden, only longer, almost reaching her knees.Her eyes had turned into blood-red vertical pupils, carrying an eerie yet majestic aesthetic.Her skin was even more delicate and smooth, her beast ears were a circle larger, her beast tail was a section longer, and her fur was glossier.All in all, Jinling, who was already pretty, became even prettier, and also gained a majestic temperament.
