Chapter 24: Chapter 24: First Soul Ring
Wong Yazhu opened her eyes, shooting up into a sitting position. She looked around, finding herself in her room, the memory of yesterday flashing before her mind. 'Ah, damn,' she mumbled, only remembering up to the point when the purple man shattered and the pain that followed, nothing much after that or how she got back to her room. 'Most definitely Tang Hao,' she thought, taking a deep breath.
She felt refreshed.
After six months of open-eye cultivation, this was her first actual sleep, and she felt extremely rejuvenated. Her mind felt clear, devoid of any cloudiness, and she couldn't imagine a better feeling. Then she sensed something different—she felt stronger. She immediately got out of bed and almost tripped due to how 'light' she had become. It was as if she was floating, but he could clearly feel the ground beneath her feet. She walked forward, practicing her movement like a baby learning to walk, and quickly got used to it.
She then raised his arm, noticing his skin had become lighter, returning to its wheatish tone like her mother's, and "black nails?" She blurted out. On each of her fingers were long, dark, and pointy nails—not what she was expecting. She tapped the tip of her right index nail with her left, feeling the sharp point. 'Yep. It can pierce skin with enough force.'
She then looked down. 'Am I taller?' The answer was yes, but she didn't know how tall. "A mirror." She left her room, entering her parents' room and walked to the full-body mirror, letting her nightgown fall to the ground as she stared at her body.
She was taller, now standing 140 cm, with an even more androgynous appearance. No one would know she was female if she didn't dress like one. 'I like this.' She nodded. She was a man at heart, so her body looking more like a male didn't bother her.
Wong Yazhu's physique hadn't changed from what it was before, though she could feel much, much more power from her muscles. 'I think I can even beat three of my old bodies with no problem.' She clenched her fist, feeling the power course through it. "I want to test my limits." But not now, she decided.
The girl then faced the mirror again, looking at the major difference on her body. Her black hair that was once cut to ear length now rested softly on her shoulders, with a few strands now white—not a lot, but enough to be notable.
'And this.' She pulled her hair from her forehead, noticing a black circular dot at the center of her forehead. "I am an Indian," she chuckled, tapping the dot. She couldn't feel the significance of the dot, but it didn't matter right now.
'At least I don't look like a background character anymore.' She thought, looking at her new body. "But I am really tall." She noticed. "Much taller than average seven-year-olds. I will become a giant when I grow up..." She noticed something and touched her neck. There was a handprint.
After feeling the print for a while and trying to think where it could come from, it became obvious it was hers. She couldn't remember when she choked herself, but she concluded it was most likely when her mind was clouded in pain.
Releasing her neck, she grinned and shouted, "Soul ring, RELEASE!"
A ring of purple light slowly ascended from underfoot, centering on her body as it floated up and down.
"...Bro, what the fuck is this?" She tried to touch the ring, but her fingers went through it, scattering the aura, which then rearranged itself. "I thought it would be more showy, not this..." She felt cheated, like all the pain she went through was for nothing. "It doesn't even glow that bright..."
She sighed, deciding that now was not the time to dwell on the aesthetics. "What skill did I get?" She wondered. Focusing on the soul ring, She closed her eyes and concentrated, seeking to connect with any new abilities it might have granted her.
As she focused, she felt a new presence within her, a skill bubbling to the surface of her consciousness, and then all the information of all the skills from her first spirit ring flowed into her mind.
"Hmm..." She mumbled, tilting her head.
First came the enhancements to the Byakugan brought by breaking through into a Soul Master and the fact it was a purple soul ring. Now, Wong Yazhu could use two of the eye abilities in tandem with each other, such as X-Ray and telescopic sight or orb sight and telescopic sight—which would be a stupid idea due to the information overload. Soul Sight could be stacked on top of the combination, so it could be stacked on top of X-Ray and telescopic, but orb sight could not be stacked on top of X-Ray and telescopic.
"I guess it's because soul sight was already at a higher level," he thought. Not only that, but all the ranges of the Byakugan sights had increased by 1000 meters. 'One kilometer or 0.62 miles.'
X-Ray sight could now see through 1120 meters of thickness, with orb sight increasing by 1020+ meters. "Not something I really care about," She mumbled, as the information overload of 1 km of orb sight would mean certain death.
Telescopic vision had increased to 1800+ meters, already far surpassing Neji's eyes. Soul sight, though, hadn't changed, but now required much less soul power to keep active, so little, in fact, "I could probably keep soul sight active whenever the Byakugan is active, and it wouldn't feel different."
For the Sharingan, it gained an extra tomoe, which was good, meaning she didn't need trauma to unlock more of the eye power. "This isn't the Naruto world after all." Like the Byakugan, she could also use two eye ability at once now, like the eye of insight and hypnotism, or the eye of insight and time dilation
The slow time perception increased by 10 seconds, now 17, and she could now choose how slow she wanted it to be. "That's good," she mumbled, nodding. "That could have been torture." She could just imagine one minute stretching to become 17 minutes. Good for thinking but not for a normal fight.
The eye of insight of the Sharingan had also improved enough to see soul power, allowing her to know the exact opponent's Soul Rank, as long as it isn't too high or they aren't hiding it. Though the Byakugan can see soul power much better and even see the soul ring and their color, she would have to estimate their level herself as the Byakugan wouldn't tell her their level.
The copy wheel can now copy things while knowing less prerequisite knowledge—how much less, she doesn't know. As for the eye of hypnotism, it 'improved' and that's all she got. "Guess I will have to test that myself."
And for the next thing, "Rinnegan!"
She felt a lot of soul power rush to her eyes, as much that's needed to activate both the Byakugan and Sharingan at once... TIMES 2! Her pupil seemed to expand, turning her entire eyes hollow black, and from the center, a dot expanded, turning her eyes solid purple, then a ring expanded from the center, stopping as the pupil formed. This takes a long time to describe, but it happened in the time it takes a spark to fly off of a piece of flint.
Keeping the Rinnegan active doesn't consume any soul power, with activating and deactivating it requiring soul power. "If I don't have enough soul power, I can't deactivate the Rinnegan to use another eye," she thought, grinning. "However, that doesn't matter because,"
She roared, "Amenotejikara!"
Her body glitched, and in her place was a pillow dropping off the air, with Wong Yazhu now standing on her parents' bed where the pillow once was.
"Jesus!" she stumbled to the side. "That is a LOT of soul power."
Just from that one movement, she used more than twenty percent of her total soul power, meaning she could only use it four times if she included the amount needed to activate and deactivate the Rinnegan. However, she understood why the ability was so broken.
It's because she could switch with ANYTHING within a ten-meter radius, as long as she could see it. Yes, anything.
Even though it is in her periphery, she sees it in a reflection (like she did with the pillow), or even if the thing is as small as a dust particle, as long as she can see it and it's within a ten-meter radius, she can switch with it.
Not only that, she can also switch two things, "Like" She picked up the pillow on the bed, and it glitched, with the candle lamp now in her hands. "The only limitation is mass."
Right now, the maximum mass she could teleport was three times her body weight, which was currently around "25kg, so the maximum is 75kg," she mumbled. "Or around 165 lbs." That means she couldn't even switch places with Wong Su. "I just need to use it more and maybe its limit should increase and the required spirit power would decrease." She swapped back with the pillow on the ground and deactivated the Rinnegan.
Apart from those improvements to my other abilities and the activation of the Rinnegan, she also got a soul skill. It is a simple ability that allows her to share her sight with someone else, allowing them to see what she sees and vice versa. This ability can only be shared with ten people currently, and during the share, her soul power consumption to keep the eyes active will be increased by 10% if she shares her eyes with one other person, 20% if it's two people, and so on. It only works when the person is within a 10 meter radius of Wong Yazhu, so if they leave the range, it will deactivate.
"What a romantic skill." She chuckled as she picked up her nightgown and returned to her room. 'But it is highly useful, like the six paths of pain.'
Wong Yazhu returned to her room, sitting on her bed cross-legged and entering a meditative state to thoroughly examine the new state of his body. Almost immediately, she could feel the significant differences within. The meridians had become more robust, with soul power flowing through them in a faster and smoother manner than ever before.
Her first ring, like she saw on Tang Hao, was 'wrapped' around the Dantian, functioning like a new room in a house, allowing him to store soul power within. It was like an expansion of his Dantian, but its 'space' was more—four, no, five times the size of his Dantian.
"I guess it depends on the cultivation of the spirit beast," she mumbled to herself. "The 1000-year-old spirit beast was significantly higher in cultivation than a soul master level eleven, so that's why it's much bigger than my Dantian." She considered that a yellow ring with at least 100 years should be equal to a level 11 soul master, but she wasn't entirely sure.
Unlike her Dantian, however, this ring was static and would not ever grow in size, but her Dantian would continue to expand, and although the physical space the Dantian occupied wasn't larger than when she was a soul Scholar, its internal space was now twice that of her old Dantian.
Meaning the soul ring is about ten times the size of her old Dantian.
When she tried to pull out the soul power stored in there, she noticed. Although she could store soul power in there, it wasn't easily accessible, and she would need conscious effort to use it. Unlike her own dantian.
"And when I was counting how much soul power I had to cast Amenotejikara, I didn't add this." If she added the space in her spirit ring, she could use Amenotejikara, "About 29 or 30 times before total soul power exhaustion." She grinned. "That is a shit ton of times."
Moving on from her Dantian, she noticed his soul power furnace was more 'advanced' now, creating soul power much faster than before. "Well, it makes sense since it now has to fill up about 12 times more space than before."
As for her spiritual sea, the swirling vortex of ever-changing 'liquid' energy seemed to have settled and become a 'pond.' She couldn't describe it since it was not something that made much sense to her, but he knew it had entered the next realm.
Her thoughts were now much faster than before, with her processing power having more than tripled, like a computer with better RAM. "I should be able to use orb sight better now." She thought as she slowly opened his eyes, letting out a deep breath.
"Time to test out the Byakugan." She activated the Byakugan, then layered X-Ray on top of telescopic vision, which understandably consumed more energy. She could easily slice through the walls and any obstruction with an X-ray, allowing her to see almost every inch of the village from the comfort of her room. "Orb sight with X-ray should be able to do the same thing, but better." However, she was not going to try that now because she suddenly noticed something—or rather, someone.
"Tang San is back." She spotted the reincarnator greeting Chief Jack in his father's blacksmith shop. 'Time go go great by brother.'
