Douluo: Reincarnated As Dai Weisi

Chapter 38: Anna's First Soul Skill

"Yes, that's it!"

Dai Weis was immediately excited. This Blood-Sucking Vine was quite similar to the Ghost Vine that that little punk hunted for his second spirit ring. Both were soul beasts that parasitized other plants and absorbed their nutrients.

The greatest feature of the Blood-Sucking Vine was the dense barbs along its surface, allowing it to absorb nutrients from plants as its energy source.

If Anna could hunt and absorb its soul ring, she might gain a similar soul skill.

"Nana, this Blood-Sucking Vine soul beast is nearly 700 years old. It's highly suitable as your first soul ring. But the age is a bit high—I'm not sure whether you can absorb it…"

"Brother Weis, I'm willing to try. If I can't hold on, please interrupt me right away."

Anna's eyes were determined, her expression serious and full of resolve. There was no trace of a joke—she had the aura of someone betting everything.

Dai Weis nodded slightly at her resolve. It was just like when he absorbed his fourth soul ring. If you don't risk madness, you don't survive. If you don't succeed, you die trying!

"Alright! Nana, since you have such strong will, you'll definitely succeed! Uncle Li, I'll leave it to you. Pull down that Blood-Sucking Vine!"

"Yes!"

To deal with a 700-year-old plant-type soul beast, Li Hu didn't even bother to activate his spirit. He gathered soul power at his feet, leapt up—

Whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, he was at the vine, reached out with one massive hand, and grabbed the Blood-Sucking Vine.

His legs seemed glued to the tree trunk as he stood perpendicular to the ground at a ninety-degree angle. Then, using his full strength, he easily tore the Blood-Sucking Vine off the tree.

The vine fell to the ground and writhed like a blood-colored chain-snake. Sensing danger, it tried to escape the area.

But it was still a plant. Its mobility was limited—it wasn't much faster than an earthworm.

Dai Weis pulled out a dagger and handed it to Anna.

"Nana, quickly finish off the Blood-Sucking Vine. Just cut it into pieces, and then prepare to absorb the spirit ring."

"Okay."

Anna took the dagger and, with a single clean slash, cut the vine into two parts.

If the target had been an animal, she might have felt hesitant. But for a plant? Anna had no sympathy. After all, she had stepped on countless blades of grass throughout her life.

After slicing the Blood-Sucking Vine into eight parts, pale yellow spirit energy gathered and formed a beautiful spirit ring, floating in front of her.

"Nana, now!"

"I understand, brother!"

Anna immediately sat down cross-legged and began fusing the spirit ring into her martial soul using the method Dai Weis had taught her.

Boom!

As the ring attached to her martial soul, a majestic and terrifying energy surged into her small body.

At that moment, Anna was like a monk cultivating beneath a waterfall. The spirit power was the crashing waterfall. If she could withstand the impact, her strength would surge to the next level. But if she was overwhelmed by the torrent, she would surely die!

Anna clenched her teeth and relied on sheer determination to resist the overwhelming force. Sweat beaded on her forehead, and cold sweat soaked her entire body.

"Your Highness, isn't a 700-year soul ring too much for Miss Anna?"

Li Hu couldn't help voicing his concern. A 700-year ring for a young girl? In his eyes, this was sending Anna to her death.

However, Dai Weis only smiled, full of confidence in her.

"Don't worry, Uncle Li. Nana is incredibly strong. And thanks to the ten-thousand-year whale glue, her body is far beyond ordinary. Her martial soul is Hundred Herbs—absorbing plant-type rings will go very smoothly."

Dai Weis waited patiently. Two hours later, Anna had safely passed the critical phase and was now fully absorbing the ring's spirit power. Her strength was rapidly rising!

Seeing this, Li Hu let out a breath of relief. Though it was a plant-type martial soul, a genius with innate level-nine soul power was still a rare talent. It would've been a terrible loss if she failed.

Another half an hour passed.

Anna opened her beautiful eyes and immediately smiled when she saw Dai Weis.

"Brother Weis, I did it! I successfully absorbed the spirit ring! I'm finally a spirit master!"

"That's right! Congratulations, Nana, you're now a spirit master too."

Dai Weis smiled and gently pinched her soft cheek.

Then he asked curiously,

"Nana, what's your spirit power level now? What's your first soul skill?"

"Brother, my spirit power has reached level thirteen!"

"Level thirteen? Not bad!"

Dai Weis nodded in satisfaction. He remembered Tang San's first ring had also pushed him to level thirteen—but that was after three months of practicing Xuan Tian Gong and starting with full innate spirit power.

Anna had obtained her first ring immediately after breaking through level ten. The 700-year ring had clearly granted her a strong boost.

"Nana, what's your first soul skill?"

Anna explained,

"Brother, my first soul skill comes from the Blood-Sucking Vine. It allows me to absorb the essence of plants. Watch!"

She walked up to a large tree, released her Hundred Herbs martial soul, and poured soul power into the spirit ring. The ring instantly lit up with pale yellow light.

Her Hundred Herbs martial soul underwent a dramatic transformation—its warm green hue turned blood red and sprouted sharp barbs. It looked just like the Blood-Sucking Vine.

"First Soul Skill: Blood-Sucking Entanglement!"

Anna called out, and the Hundred Herbs transformed into blood-colored vines that wrapped tightly around the large tree. The barbs shot out like steel needles, piercing into the bark and drawing out the tree's essence.

In mere moments, the tree visibly withered. After just two minutes, it was completely dead—and Anna's soul power was visibly rising.

Dai Weis was stunned by what he saw and asked in disbelief,

"Nana, that's your first soul skill?"

"Yes, Brother." Anna nodded.

"My first soul skill lets me absorb the essence of plants and convert it into soul power, helping me cultivate faster.

At the same time, I can directly absorb the soul power of plant-type soul beasts without the risk of exploding. But I can't absorb the soul power of beast-type soul beasts—only plants.

Also, this skill has growth potential. As I grow stronger, I'll be able to absorb plant essence faster."

"My god, this is a divine skill!"

Dai Weis was astonished. "It might not be highly offensive, but it's extremely practical. With this ability, your level will rise quickly.

Nana, I believe in a few years, you'll become a powerful master!"

By Dai Weis' estimation, even if Blood-Sucking Entanglement couldn't absorb soul power from other spirit masters, its barbs alone were just as lethal as Tang San's Blue Silver Entanglement.

Plus, it could be used to support cultivation and increase soul power quickly—what more could you ask for?
