Chapter 9: Plot Changes, Tang San Reluctantly Absorbs a Ten-Year Soul Ring

Upon hearing Tang San's laughter, Yu Xiaogang's expression changed instantly.

"Tang San, my right arm is broken, are you happy?"

Tang San hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no."

I am not happy.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Yu Xiaogang shouted sternly.

"Then why are you still laughing!"

"What are you laughing at!"

Tang San's expression suddenly froze; he didn't know why he had wanted to laugh just now.

It's that kind of uncontrollable laughter, and it's also a kind of genuine laughter.

Suddenly I don't want to laugh anymore.

His mind raced. "Godfather, I'm smiling because I saved you and you're alright."

Hearing Tang San say this, Yu Xiaogang's expression softened somewhat, but he was clearly still somewhat skeptical. "Is that so?"

"Of course that's true."

"Fine, since it's already happened, I won't say anything more."

Yu Xiaogang stretched out his only left arm and waved his hand.

"No matter what, you saved me."

"I can't hunt any high-level spirit rings for you like this now."

"Do you remember Gu Zhu, whom we encountered when we first entered the Soul Hunter's Forest?"

Upon hearing the name "Guzhu," Ye Lin paused for a moment.

Did you choose Guzhu?

I originally thought he was just a minor character, but now he's become the main character?

Tang San recalled what had happened before, "Back then, Godfather said that if there was no better option, it would be him."

Yu Xiaogang nodded. "There are clearly no better options now."

"Let's pack up quickly and leave; it's still a bit dangerous here."

"Good godfather."

Tang San carried all the bundles on his back and slowly walked towards the edge of the Soul Hunter Forest. He was exhausted, like a dog, but he could only silently endure it, after all, he was the one who had severed Yu Xiaogang's right arm.

Moreover, there was absolutely no need to kill him; that scene kept replaying in his mind, like a nightmare.

A day later, the three of them easily found the ten-year-old lone bamboo.

"Let's get started."

Yu Xiaogang said slowly, "The resilience of the solitary bamboo is very suitable for your Blue Silver Grass."

"Besides, the ten-year-old Guzhu has no offensive power; you can simply cut it in half with your short sword."

"Yes, Godfather," Tang San replied, gripping his short sword and quickly stepping forward. With a single swing, the towering Lone Bamboo fell to the ground as if an ordinary bamboo stalk had been cut down, causing no major disturbance.

The soul power at the bottom of the bamboo slowly rose, condensing into a white soul ring in the air.

"Sit cross-legged, channel your soul power, and focus your mind on your martial spirit!"

Yu Xiaogang gave the instructions in a deep voice.

The white spirit ring, drawn by Tang San's spirit power, quickly attached itself to the Blue Silver Grass on Tang San's right hand and was slowly absorbed by him.

"well,"

Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang sighed softly.

They had hoped that Tang San would prove his theory, but now they couldn't. Fortunately, Tang San had twin martial souls. Even if his first martial soul absorbed all ten-year soul rings, his second martial soul could still make him a top-tier powerhouse.

Moreover, Blue Silver Grass was originally a useless martial soul, and besides, he also had his future disciple Ye Lin with him.

Although Ye Lin didn't want to become an apprentice, he would make her do so sooner or later.

Ye Lin absorbed the soul ring of the Mandragora Serpent, so it wasn't a bad deal after all.

Although Yu Xiaogang was a little depressed, Tang San was very excited. As long as he could have a spirit ring, he didn't care whether it was a hundred-year-old or ten-year-old one.

The soul rings of the ten-year-old Guzhu were not strong.

Tang San's absorption speed is very fast.

He absorbed the soul ring in just five or six minutes, and after that, his long-stalled Xuan Tian Gong finally broke through the first level of its bottleneck.

This overjoyed him; indeed, the bottleneck of the Mysterious Heaven Technique lay in the Soul Ring.

Now the development direction of the Mysterious Heaven Skill is finally clear. As long as the Mysterious Heaven Skill and hidden weapons exist, that's enough.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully modified Tang San's storyline, allowing him to absorb the ten-year Guzhu Soul Ring. Reward: one five-hundred-year Soul Ring Age Enhancement Card, and one hundred points.]

"This is a pleasant surprise."

A smile appeared on Ye Lin's face, her chest rising and falling slightly.

Including the 100 points Tang San gained from severing Yu Xiaogang's right arm, the 200 points he had previously spent have now been recovered.

Not only did they not lose money, they actually made a profit.

They also gained an extra 500-year soul ring age enhancement card.

Ye Lin began to calculate.

After using the two Soul Ring Age Enhancement Cards, the age of the first Soul Ring will be 1,932 years. Yu Xiaogang's theoretical maximum age is not even a fraction of this!

Moreover, a thousand-year soul ring can greatly enhance her strength.

Seeing Tang San exhale, Yu Xiaogang asked him,

"Mistress, did you succeed?"

"Mm," Tang San replied, and the Blue Silver Grass unfolded on his right palm. The grass now displayed more green and bamboo-like patterns, and was slightly wider than before, resembling a sturdy bamboo stalk.

A white spirit ring rose beneath his feet, proving that he had become a true spirit master.

What is your first soul skill?

Yu Xiaogang asked with a hint of anticipation,

"Enveloped in blue and silver,"

Tang San spoke quickly, his first spirit ring flashed, and the Blue Silver Grass on his right hand grew rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, the Blue Silver Grass transformed into a long, bamboo-shaped vine that wrapped around a thick tree trunk in front of it.

Yu Xiaogang nodded. "That's similar to what I was thinking. Being able to control the target, and having a strong offensive Soul Master to cooperate with you, would greatly increase your combat power."

"Moreover, Gu Zhu is quite resilient. Unless the opponent's soul power level is two soul rings higher than yours, it is absolutely impossible for them to break free."

His gaze fell on Ye Lin. "You absorbed the Mandragora Serpent's spirit ring. I wonder what your spirit skill is?"

He was a little curious.

"A sword thrust,"

Ye Lin said calmly, and with a swift movement of her right hand, she grasped the immortal sword. A yellow soul ring rose beneath her feet.

With a flash of her first spirit ring, Ye Lin thrust her longsword forward, and a phantom of a jade-green dragon head on the hilt of the sword snapped down, biting directly at the towering tree that Tang San had just entangled.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar came from the tree, followed by a crack as it snapped in two and crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The birds that had landed on the trees were startled and flew away in all directions.

Amidst the smoke and dust, the blue silver vines that Tang San had just released were quickly retracted, with a clean cut at the end, clearly severed by the sword energy that had just pierced through.

Yu Xiao had just said that it was impossible to break free from a spirit ring that didn't last more than two, but now it had been severed by Ye Lin, who also had a one-ring spirit ring.

Who would have thought that the slap in the face would come so quickly?

Ye Lin held the immortal sword and slashed downwards diagonally, breaking through the dust in front of her to reveal her face.
