Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 286, page 305: A Familiar Melody

A corrosive strong acid?

Upon hearing this, Tang San was completely stunned.

He finally understood why Hai Ge said he would regret it.

Absorbing the slug spirit ring only wastes two spirit ring slots and gives him two useless spirit skills. It doesn't have much impact on the quality of the Clear Sky Hammer spirit, and he can still use his other spirit rings.

However, if his Clear Sky Hammer absorbs this acidic slime, that would be disastrous. If a piece of iron is soaked in a strong acid environment, it will rust in no time.

The soul skill provided by this slime had an impact on him that was not simply a waste of a soul ring slot, but rather directly destroyed a portion of the quality of his Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.

Just like Yu Xiaogang asked him to let the Blue Silver Grass, which he was familiar with, absorb the poison of the soul beasts.

No, I can't absorb this, I absolutely cannot absorb this.

Tang San turned his head and looked at Hai Ge: "Hai Ge, I think we should go back and absorb that slug."

“You miss that slug now? Too late—” Hai Ge said with a sneer, “Now, either you absorb this acidic slime, or I’ll take you to the next place. Don’t worry, when you get there, you’ll miss this acidic slime just as much as you miss the slug now.”

Tang San: "No, I'll absorb it, I'll absorb it, okay?"

Along the way, Tang San had figured out Hai Ge's temper: he couldn't go against Hai Ge's wishes. At this moment, Tang San felt extremely regretful. If he hadn't pursued spirit beasts like the Titan Giant Ape, Sky-Supporting Demon Ape, and Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear from the beginning, but instead absorbed spirit beasts like the Silverback Gorilla and Cangming Swamp Bull according to Hai Ge's wishes, he wouldn't have angered Hai Ge and ended up getting two slug spirit rings.

Refusing now will only lead to worse choices.

Hai Ge nodded in satisfaction. Thus, under Hai Ge's suppression, Tang San successfully killed the acid slime and absorbed the spirit ring it had created.

After absorbing the spirit ring, Tang San could clearly feel the rust marks appearing on the Clear Sky Hammer, and the quality of his spirit spirit had also declined significantly. After all, who would attach an acid-attribute spirit ring to their weapon spirit spirit?

"Let's see how your third soul skill is," Hai Ge said.

Tang San unleashed his third soul skill, slamming the Haotian Hammer into the ground. Like a sponge, the hammer flattened, squeezing out green acid that splashed out and corroded the areas it touched.

"Third Soul Skill, Acid Splash," Tang San said with a dark face.

“Not bad, that’s right. Now you only have one spirit ring slot left to attach a spirit ring.” Hai Ge stroked his chin and said, “I have to cherish this opportunity and carefully select a spirit ring for you. What kind of exciting spirit ring should I find for you? It’s really putting me in a difficult position.”

Such a blatant scheme made Tang San uneasy.

Because of Hai Ge, he has already absorbed two slug spirit rings and one acidic slime spirit ring. Does Hai Ge have another package waiting for him? Does he really intend to destroy his Clear Sky Hammer spirit?
Yes, I have already expressed my hatred for Brother Hai several times.

Put yourself in Hai Ge's shoes. If you were Hai Ge, you would definitely kill or destroy yourself.

He definitely has ill intentions; if I continue to follow him, I'm afraid I'll...
Tang San thought uneasily, "No, I can't keep following Brother Hai anymore, I have to run."

But if he tried to run, Tang San looked around at the deep forest. He was already lost in this forest. If he tried to escape, he would probably be trapped in the forest maze, just as Hai Ge had said.

but.
Tang San immediately thought, "I am the chosen one of destiny. This era has ten percent of destiny, and the God of Asura has allocated eleven percent of destiny to me. Others can only stare in despair, and the Spirit Hall still owes me one percent of destiny."

Do you understand the true value of being a chosen one?

Tang San was unsure if he could escape the forest, but he believed in his status as the chosen one and that he would surely turn misfortune into good fortune.

Therefore, Tang San made up his mind to run away.

Hai Ge led Tang San through the forest, while Tang San searched for an opportunity to escape. Finally, in the dead of night, after Hai Ge had fallen asleep, he went hunting. Once Tang San was sure Hai Ge was gone, he opened his eyes in the tent, quietly stepped out, and used the Ghost Shadow Step to disappear into the dark forest. The forest was like a maze; those unfamiliar with its paths would easily become lost and disoriented.

Tang San didn't know how to get out of the Star Dou Great Forest, so he could only rely on his intuition and run in the direction he believed in.

At dawn, thick fog blanketed the forest, gradually reducing visibility. Tang San felt himself getting closer and closer to the exit before plunging headfirst into the mist.

Suddenly, a bright and open view appeared before him. It seemed that he had walked out of the forest, with the lush Star Dou Great Forest behind him. Tang San took a few steps forward.

Finally, finally free from Hai Ge, Tang San felt like he had escaped a calamity. He turned his head and looked resentfully in the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, thinking: Hai Ge, you just wait. You are the first person to die. When I have completed my cultivation, I will take your dog's life first, then Yu Tianheng, Er Ming, and then the Spirit Hall.
Just when Tang San thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief, a familiar yet unsettling melody reached his ears:

"Akei Kuli Houya Hou Ben~"

Tang San's dark face twitched a few times.

No way, no way, that kind of thing won't happen again, will it?

Tang San recalled the ominous encounters he had experienced the previous two times he had heard this sound.

We must leave this place.

As Tang San turned his head to face the opposite direction from where he had come from, preparing to unleash his power, a gentle voice reached his ears:

"Ah San, Giegie, are you going to leave Xiao Wu?"

Xiao Wu's voice seemed to possess some kind of magical power, pinning Tang San to the spot.

"Dida Lugong Gahou fights the underworld~"

Xiao Wu—no, this Xiao Wu is fake—but Tang San was caught in a fierce internal struggle.

"Ah San, Giegie, do you hate Xiao Wu now?"

Tang San: @#￥￥&
"Change the course, change the red team, destroy Europe, yayah~"

"Xiao Wu wants to see you, could you turn your head?"

Tang San turned his head with difficulty, and when he saw Xiao Wu, warm tears flowed from his eyes, slid down his dark face, and dripped down.

The Xiao Wu before him was the mature Xiao Wu, the matriarch of the Asura Temple who bore him children. He missed this Xiao Wu terribly.

"Bia Li Ge Sai Hou Crack Down on Black Lives Matter~"

"Xiao Wu, my beloved!" Tang San turned his head, trembling.

Seeing Tang San turn around, a sweet smile immediately appeared on her face. She stretched out her fair hand to Tang San and said affectionately, "Ah San, giegie, come here and play some fun games with Xiao Wu."

With tears streaming down his face, Tang San reached out and placed his hand on Xiao Wu's small hand. It wasn't that he didn't know the Xiao Wu in front of him was fake, but rather that the repeated emotional setbacks he had experienced recently made Tang San yearn for Xiao Wu's love.

Even if he knew that what he was seeing might be fake, he was still willing to be a moth drawn to a flame.

Before long, Tang San was immersed in the gentle embrace of love.

"Lulu lulu lulu lulu~ Lulu lulu lulu~"
