Douluo: I'll take the benefits, you bear the side effects

"I'm not a good person," Ning Chuan said, uttering a statement that left them bewildered. He then turned to Xiao Wu and said, "Alright, Xiao Wu, you've now entered your mature stage. As long as I obtain a spirit ring for you, no one will be able to find you anymore. As for the two of you..."

At this point, Ning Chuan looked at the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python, "To be honest, there are already several strong individuals among humans who, like me, do not have full soul rings."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's expression immediately turned ugly. "Little Six, are you talking about the Pope of the Spirit Hall?"

Ning Chuan nodded. "You saw her strength back then. Level 99, she was far beyond what Da Ming and Er Ming could withstand. And it's not just her. Do you remember Tang San? I saw him in the City of Slaughter before. He has become an evil soul master now, and I'm afraid it won't be long before he becomes a Title Douluo. That will be the most dangerous time for Da Ming and Er Ming."

"So you want me and Erming to sacrifice ourselves for you? To become like the Blue Silver Emperor?"

Upon hearing this, the Azure Bull Python's tone turned unfriendly once again.

The Titan Ape's expression also turned grim; indeed, humans are ultimately untrustworthy.

They were single-mindedly focused on getting their soul rings and soul bones.

Xiao Wu was somewhat tempted, because this would not only allow Ning Chuan to greatly improve his strength, but also protect Da Ming and Er Ming.

"It's not a sacrifice for me, but a sacrifice for Xiao Wu. This way, we won't have to worry about being hunted down by human powerhouses, nor will we have to worry about passing away after a thousand years. When Xiao Wu becomes a god with me in the future, she will also have a chance to be resurrected. In other words, with the foundation laid by the Love-Sickness Broken Heart Red and the two of you, even if we can't reach level 100 and become a god, we can still reach level 99. At that time, she will have a lifespan of a thousand years, and you will still be able to protect her for a thousand years."

Ning Chuan's words undoubtedly made the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python somewhat interested.

But even if Xiao Wu is heartless, how could she possibly accept the sacrifice from the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python?

"No, I absolutely cannot let Da Ming and Er Ming sacrifice themselves. If the Pope of the Spirit Hall or Tang San arrives, I will fight them to the death."

Xiao Wu's words deeply moved the two giant beasts. "Sister Xiao Wu, we..."

But her next sentence shocked them both: "And even if a sacrifice is to be made, it will be for Xiao Liu Zi. If anyone is most likely to become a god at level 100, it will definitely be Xiao Liu Zi. When Xiao Liu Zi becomes a god in the future, he can revive Da Ming and Er Ming. At the very least, Da Ming and Er Ming can become Xiao Liu Zi's sword spirits, just like A Yin."

Ning Chuan felt a surge of emotion. Indeed, only a love-obsessed person who loves themselves is the best love-obsessed person. He coughed lightly and said, "A Yin's situation is irreplaceable. Putting aside whether they are willing or not, even if they were, sacrificing their souls along with them would only cause them to fall into a deep sleep."

"I'll take you to get your seventh spirit ring first, and give them some time to consider. Anyway, you still have two spirit ring slots, so it won't make a difference if it takes a little longer."

"Xiao Wu, release your martial spirit so that A Yin can test how many years of spirit rings you can withstand."

Ah Yin is extremely accurate when it comes to testing physical condition.

"Ah."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu nodded slightly, and a faint pink light emanated from her body, instantly completing the Possession of the Soft Bone Rabbit.

Her spirit ring configuration is the same as in the original work.

Two yellow, two purple, one black, and one red.

Looking at Xiao Wu's sixth spirit ring, Ning Chuan asked with some surprise, "I know that spirit beasts need to hunt for spirit rings starting from the seventh spirit ring after transformation, but are all sixth spirit rings 100,000 years old?"

Xiao Wu shook her head and said, "That's not it. Under normal circumstances, even a transformed soul beast's sixth soul ring is at most 20,000 to 30,000 years. That's about the same as a human powerhouse. But because it refined the Acacia Heartbreak Red, it was able to raise its sixth soul ring to 100,000 years. Since it was transformed from its own 100,000 years of cultivation, it wouldn't be affected by energy shocks or soul vibrations. If I were to directly absorb a 100,000-year soul ring, even a seventh soul ring, I definitely wouldn't be able to absorb it."

Ning Chuan nodded, "A Yin, examine her." A Yin released her Blue Silver Domain as instructed, and after examining Xiao Wu's body, she said, "Sister Xiao Wu's physique is already very close to the Title Douluo level. As long as it doesn't exceed 80,000 years, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Xiao Wu's Soft Bone Rabbit is mainly about spirit and strength. Do you know where there are spirit-type or strength-type soul beasts that are over 70,000 years old? It would be best if they had both."

Ning Chuan looked at the Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python.

The two beasts looked at each other, knowing they would definitely not help Ning Chuan hunt soul beasts for them.

But since it's Sister Xiaowu, that's a different story.

The Titan Ape pointed in a direction and said, "In the canyon three hundred miles away in that direction lives a ghostly fox spirit that is about seventy thousand years old."

Ning Chuan then asked, "Besides the two of you, are there any other 100,000-year-old soul beasts?"

"You," the Titan Ape glanced at Xiao Wu, and seeing that she was also looking at him with a questioning gaze, he reluctantly pointed in another direction and said, "A hundred-thousand-year-old Thorn Spider King lives in that direction, but you must be careful. That Thorn Spider King is no less powerful than me and Da Ming, and more importantly, it is extremely cunning."

"I killed the Thorn Spider King on the way here, and my sixth spirit ring came from it."

Ning Chuan interrupted him, and after some questioning, he finally discovered that in addition to them and the dead Thorn Spider King, the Star Dou Great Forest also had five 100,000-year-old soul beasts. He also managed to find out the approximate location of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

These are the people who challenged them in the past.

They were simply no match for the two beasts working together and were driven back.

This includes the Death Spider King, which was killed by Bibi Dong in the original story, and the Crimson Rock Turtle, which was killed by Qian Renxue.

In other words, besides the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python, the only other living creatures in the Star Dou Great Forest are three 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

"The Titan Ape and the Azure Bull Python belong to Xiao Wu. Zhu Qing, Ling Ling, and Rong Rong need at least one of them. Even if we include the three brothers, the Thousand-Jin Ant King, it's still far from enough. Should we go to the far north or go out to sea?"

Ning Chuan muttered to himself.

As for the ferocious beasts at the bottom of this Lake of Life, we'll leave that aside for now.

He is not yet a match for them.

Of course, Ning Chuan wouldn't miss these ferocious beasts either, after all, the Gold-Eating Insects were still nine spirit rings short.

Meanwhile, as Ning Chuan was hunting down ghostly fox spirits for Xiao Wu, on a hillside in the mountains where the City of Slaughter was located...

A blood-red vortex appeared from nothing.

After the crimson vortex subsided, Tang San's body appeared here.

When he woke up, Tang Hao was already beside him.

Although Tang Ritian's injuries were alleviated during the Soul Master Competition thanks to the power of the Asura God, they recurred due to the exploding rings. (End of Chapter)
