Next, the number of people absorbing Spirit Rings became two. At the very least, they had gotten off to a good start. Among the six people who needed Spirit Rings, three had already obtained theirs. There were still three left.
Zhang Lexuan began calculating. Huo Yuhao needed a suitable spiritual-type Spirit Beast, and its cultivation had to be over 20,000 years.
Tang Ya needed a plant-type Spirit Beast of around 60,000 years to serve as her seventh Spirit Ring. Zhang Lexuan had personally examined Tang Ya before. With the quality of Tang Ya's Martial Soul, her physical constitution, and her Spirit Bones, she could endure a Spirit Ring of a higher age.
The seventh Spirit Ring was extremely important. The ability it granted would only be Martial Soul True Body, but the higher its age, the greater the enhancement from Martial Soul True Body would be.
Based on Tang Ya's current foundation, the limit her seventh Spirit Ring could withstand was 70,000 years. In other words, as long as the age did not exceed 70,000 years, Tang Ya could absorb it. If it surpassed 70,000 years, there would be danger.
As time passed, Di Ruiqiu was the first to awaken. She had successfully absorbed the Blood-Red Baboon King's Spirit Ring, officially becoming a Spirit Emperor.
Di Ruiqiu came before Huo Yuhao. "Let's go. I'll take you to find a Spirit Ring."
Huo Yuhao was somewhat embarrassed. "Uh, let's wait until Senior Li is finished."
Di Ruiqiu saw that there was still someone nearby absorbing a Spirit Ring, so she leaned against a tree and waited for Li Yongyue to complete his absorption.
After waiting another hour, Li Yongyue successfully absorbed his Spirit Ring. Zhang Lexuan handed the Purple Shadow Lion's Spirit Bone to Li Yongyue.
"Eldest Senior Sister, this…"
Li Yongyue was somewhat surprised. He could feel that this Spirit Bone was different. It was the Spirit Bone dropped by the Purple Shadow Lion!
Zhang Lexuan smiled gently. "A Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone produced by the same Spirit Beast are the most compatible. I remember you once said that after graduation, you wanted to stay in the academy and become a teacher. Work hard."
"Mm. Thank you, Eldest Senior Sister. Thank you, everyone."
Zhang Lexuan smiled. "Hurry and absorb the Spirit Bone."
"Yes."
Li Yongyue sat down and absorbed the Spirit Bone. He could be considered quite lucky. In this team, no one coveted his Spirit Bone at all.
The Spirit Bones on Su Yunlin and Tang Wutong were both absurd in quality and quantity.
Huo Yuhao, this cheat-like king, did not need it either. Mo Xuan was introverted, but he was a decent person. As for the others, they had no thoughts about this Spirit Bone. They more or less all had Spirit Bones of their own.
As for Di Ruiqiu, there was no need to mention her.
Zhang Lexuan looked at Di Ruiqiu. "You said you would take Huo Yuhao to hunt for a suitable Spirit Ring?"
Di Ruiqiu nodded. "I know where there's a Spirit Beast suited to him. I'll lead the way."
Zhang Lexuan sized Di Ruiqiu up and asked, "You're very familiar with the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Di Ruiqiu looked toward the sun in the sky and slowly said, "I once trained in the Star Dou Great Forest for a year. I've been through the outer region, the mixed region, and the core region."
"A full year?" Zhang Lexuan was somewhat shocked. The Star Dou Great Forest was one of the largest gathering places for Spirit Beasts. It was incomparably dangerous. Zhang Lexuan asked herself honestly and knew she did not have the ability to live like a primitive person in the Star Dou Great Forest for an entire year.
Di Ruiqiu nodded. "One year. By myself."
Everyone sucked in a cold breath. Only Su Yunlin remained unmoved. Tang Wutong looked at Su Yunlin and kept feeling that he seemed to know something. She would have to ask him when they returned. Who exactly was this Di Ruiqiu?
Everyone waited for Li Yongyue to finish absorbing the Spirit Bone. Absorbing a Spirit Bone was much faster than absorbing a Spirit Ring, and Li Yongyue did not take long to complete it.
Seeing that Li Yongyue had finished absorbing it, everyone set out again. This time, Di Ruiqiu led the team. Since she was familiar with the Star Dou Great Forest, it was naturally up to her to lead the way.
Everyone followed behind Di Ruiqiu and advanced deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest. At this moment, Di Ruiqiu took out a golden spear about 3.6 meters long. It was a double-pointed spear, and no one could tell what material it was made of.
When Tang Wutong saw that spear, she froze. Naturally, she recognized what it was.
Tang Wutong grabbed Su Yunlin's hand and began using spiritual communication.
Yunlin! Yunlin! That Di Ruiqiu isn't simple! What she's holding is the Golden Dragon Spear! It's a divine weapon! It's said to have been formed from the rib of the Golden Dragon King, the Dragon God's other half! It's an extremely dangerous weapon!
Tang Wutong spoke anxiously.
Su Yunlin turned to look at her and also used spiritual communication. What's wrong? Does that thing have something to do with you?
Tang Wutong nodded. I brought it down from the Divine Realm. Originally, my dad intended for me to obtain the Dragon God's blood, strengthen my Martial Soul, awaken the Dragon God bloodline, and thereby take control of the Golden Dragon Spear.
But there was a slight change. During our first-year vacation, when I returned to the Clear Sky Sect, the Golden Dragon Spear flew away. Even my Eldest Dad and Second Dad didn't know where it had gone.
Su Yunlin frowned. Are you missing anything? Do you feel like something is lacking?
Tang Wutong shook her head. No. What does that have to do with the Golden Dragon Spear? This Di Ruiqiu is definitely not simple. Her Golden Dragon Martial Soul really can control the Golden Dragon Spear.
Other people can't use the Golden Dragon Spear. Even I can't use it. Aaaah! That was the divine weapon my dad left for me!
Su Yunlin smiled gently. It's only a divine weapon. In the future, we'll forge one ourselves. I'm still a soul engineer, after all. Once we return, you can personally forge the metal that suits you, and I'll engrave the soul tool formation patterns for you. When the time comes, it'll become your exclusive soul tool.
After we become gods in the future, we'll nurture it with divine power. It'll definitely become a divine weapon. Something like a divine weapon still has to suit its wielder. Our second Martial Souls are both tool Martial Souls too. They can also be nurtured into divine weapons.
Tang Wutong nodded and leaned her head against Su Yunlin's shoulder. Hehe, having you is so nice! Something like the Golden Dragon Spear isn't as important as you. In the end, it was only a divine weapon Dad prepared for me. If it's lost, then it's lost.
As long as I don't lose you. Right! I do have that idea. I want a spear-type soul tool. When we get back, I'll tell you in detail what traits I need.
Su Yunlin smiled faintly and rubbed Tang Wutong's head. Alright. I'll satisfy all of them for you.
Hehe~ Yunlin, you're the best.
PS: The above is secondary setting.
As the Shrek group moved quickly, Huo Yuhao fully activated his Spiritual Detection. Very soon, they encountered more Spirit Beasts.
It was six Ink Panthers.
"Ink Panthers. They're a very troublesome group of Spirit Beasts. If they lock onto us, things will become annoying. I'll deal with them," Di Ruiqiu said with a frown.
Naturally, Zhang Lexuan did not agree, but Di Ruiqiu insisted. Zhang Lexuan had no choice. In the end, Han Ruoruo made a move and tied her Dazzling Golden Rope around Di Ruiqiu's waist. If there was danger, Han Ruoruo could pull Di Ruiqiu back.
Su Yunlin watched the entire thing from the side. He could not be bothered to act, or rather, these Spirit Beasts were not worth him making a move. That previous Purple Shadow Lion had only been because the mood struck him.
Since Di Ruiqiu herself intended to charge ahead recklessly, Su Yunlin had no intention of competing with her. Wasn't it better to be affectionate with Tang Wutong?
Di Ruiqiu quickly used the Golden Dragon Spear to deal with the Ink Panthers. Zhang Lexuan was somewhat puzzled by Di Ruiqiu's spear.
"That spear of yours?"
Di Ruiqiu looked at the spear in her hand. "A family weapon. The Golden Dragon Spear."
Huo Yuhao almost blurted out, "Legend says that the first Golden Dragon had forty-nine ribs, while its descendants only had forty-eight. And the forty-ninth rib of the first Golden Dragon is said to contain the profound secret of whether it could evolve into the Dragon God in the future. Could this be…"
Di Ruiqiu was somewhat surprised. "I didn't expect you to know about that. That's right. This was made from the rib of the first Golden Dragon."
Su Yunlin and Tang Wutong looked at the two of them, then exchanged a glance and began roasting them in their own private channel.
Tang Wutong said, What nonsense are these two idiots talking about? What first Golden Dragon? The first of the Golden Dragon lineage was only the Golden Dragon King. Most others related to golden dragons evolved after obtaining a trace of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline.
And the Golden Dragon King was subdued by the Divine Realm long ago and sealed there. This Golden Dragon Spear is a trophy of the Divine Realm. It was only dug out by my dad.
Su Yunlin shrugged. They're two country kids, so be a little understanding. It's not like everyone knows this much. But listening to them explain things so confidently, and the two of them being so in sync…
These two really are well matched, don't you think?
Tang Wutong curled her lips. Aren't they just pure fools? But they really are well matched. One dares to say it, and the other dares to go along with it. Quite the perfect match.
Right, Yunlin, the Golden Dragon Spear has the trait of devouring life force. Don't get injured by it.
Don't worry.
