"Third Spirit Ability, Boiling Heart Riot!" Miaoxin's body suddenly turned crimson, and her killing intent greatly increased. This was an ability that, through heartbeat, drastically stimulated her own blood and meridians, elevating her physical strength to a state beyond its peak.
However, it incurred an intense burden; prolonged maintenance of this state carried the risk of her body exploding. Of course, the burden was mentioned when Miaoxin was a three-ring Spirit Master. At her current level, this physical burden was nothing. Maintaining this state in battle for several hours was no problem at all. After all, it was merely a thousand-year spirit ability.
"Ha!" Miaoxin slammed her fist onto the ground. The force of the punch spread out like a tidal wave, sending the entire spirit beast group reeling. Even Yuwen Tuo felt somewhat unsteady, and Xiao Xiao almost fell, fortunately, Yuwen Tuo caught her in time.
"Wow, what immense power! Didn't this elder sister say she was a control-type?" Yuwen Tuo exclaimed.
Xiao Xiao, in his arms, said, "Tuo Tuo, I've heard Teacher mention this spirit ability of hers. She doesn't usually use it this way. This spirit ability can stimulate herself, and also stimulate opponents and teammates. When stimulating teammates, it can temporarily boost their attributes. When stimulating opponents, it can cause weaker opponents to fall into a state of frenzy."
"So that's what kind of control-type she is!" Yuwen Tuo complained.
The spirit beasts here were only thousand-year level or just over ten-thousand-year level. Startled by Miaoxin's punch, they immediately scattered like frightened birds, preparing to flee. This was also Miaoxin's objective; she had no intention of slaughtering them.
Frightening away those that weren't targets was enough. The Purple Fire Golden-Eyed Beast was indeed a highly intelligent spirit beast, but intelligence was most vulnerable when confronted with overwhelming force.
The strength gap between the ten-thousand-year Purple Fire Golden-Eyed Beast and Miaoxin was too vast; at this point, intelligence was useless. The only option it could think of was to escape.
It let out a few lion roars, commanding several fearless spirit beasts to pounce on Miaoxin to buy time, while it seized the opportunity to escape. Miaoxin smiled faintly, "Trying to escape? Not so easy. Sixth Spirit Ability, Heart-Tying Prison Lock!" This was a control-type spirit ability that formed invisible chains,
connecting her own heart to the opponent's heart, pulling the target towards herself. It possessed absolute control and could create layers of spatial wrinkles through continuous vibrations, achieving a restraining effect on the target. Moreover, this was a group control. With her heart, Miaoxin controlled all the remaining spirit beasts in the arena in one go.
"Alright, Xiao Xiao, you can go acquire your spirit ring now. Tuo'er, there are also a few decent power-type spirit beasts or fire-attribute ten-thousand-year spirit beasts here that are acceptable for you. Do you want to choose one?" Miaoxin asked.
Yuwen Tuo shook his head. "The age limit is too low. The highest here is only at the ten-thousand-year level. Elder Sister Miaoxin, my fourth spirit ring is already thirty thousand years. If my fifth spirit ring isn't at least fifty thousand years, wouldn't that be a waste of my talent?"
"Hmm, that's true. It's alright, we'll look for one later." Miaoxin said. Their sect had finally produced a peerless genius like Yuwen Tuo, who even surpassed Long Aotian. They couldn't be sloppy in cultivating him. They should cultivate him as monstrously as possible.
At this moment, Xiao Xiao had already used the spirit bone skill from her Mysterious Demon Leopard Left Leg Bone to smash the Purple Fire Golden-Eyed Beast's skull, giving it a quick end. A black spirit ring slowly emerged from its body. The spirit ring enveloped Xiao Xiao's body. The powerful energy impact and soul shockwave of the ten-thousand-year spirit ring continuously stimulated Xiao Xiao's body.
"Ugh." Xiao Xiao couldn't help but groan. Absorbing a spirit ring beyond one's rank, regardless of whether one could ultimately withstand it, was a painful process for most.
To help Xiao Xiao, Yuwen Tuo picked up a leaf and began to play the 'Little Chill' melody from the Twenty-Four Melodies of Heavenly Sound. This was a melody Xiao Xiao herself hadn't learned yet. This melody had the marvelous effect of stabilizing the mind,
calming the person, and reinforcing the spiritual sea. Xiao Xiao's internal cultivation method was originally from the Heavenly Sound Sect, and it resonated with the melody of the song. The Soundless String Art divine skill circulated with the melody, and Xiao Xiao's complexion visibly improved.
The Soundless String Art was indeed sufficient to withstand soul shockwaves. This cultivation method also allowed spirit power to become as soft as cotton, uncrushable and unbendable, making it impossible for others to exert force against it. The powerful spirit power of the ten-thousand-year spirit ring impacted Xiao Xiao's body,
but the cotton-like spirit power absorbed most of its force. The remaining small portion was only at the thousand-year level, which was no problem for Xiao Xiao, who possessed two ten-thousand-year spirit bones and one hundred-thousand-year spirit bone.
Two hours later, Xiao Xiao finally completely endured the spirit ring impact and soul shockwave. The most dangerous period had passed. Next was to accept the spirit ring's power,
enhance spirit power, increase physical attributes, and form spirit abilities. This process should have been quick, but it continued for another hour, yet Xiao Xiao still didn't wake up. It was already dark, and Xiao Xiao was still meditating.
"Something's wrong!" Miaoxin was worried. After absorbing to this point, she should have succeeded long ago. Why hadn't Xiao Xiao woken up yet?
"I don't feel Xiao Xiao is in any danger. If the absorption hasn't ended after so long, it means she's absorbing more than just a spirit ring." Yuwen Tuo thought of something. Just then, a dazzling light suddenly flashed from his left chest, from the Snow Empress's Heart External Spirit Bone. It resonated with Xiao Xiao's eyes.
The Snow Empress said in shock, "This Xiao Xiao, what incredible fortune she has! She's getting an external spirit bone!"
"If it's the Purple Fire Golden-Eyed Beast's external spirit bone, could it be the Flame Golden Eyes!" The Ice Empress speculated. She didn't know why she blurted out the name of this external spirit bone, but she just knew. Perhaps it was related to the fortune on Yuwen Tuo's body. That fortune influenced him and the people around him, guiding Xiao Xiao to obtain this external spirit bone.
Xiao Xiao's fortune was already very strong. In fact, in the original work, the Dark Golden Dreadclaw External Spirit Bone that Huo Yuhao obtained should have been dropped by her, but she couldn't absorb it, allowing Huo Yuhao to pick up the bargain. But at this moment, no one could compete with Xiao Xiao for these Flame Golden Eyes.
Another hour passed, and Xiao Xiao finally opened her eyes. In those beautiful pupils, flames seemed to burn, both beautiful and mysterious. Above the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, two yellow, one purple, and one black spirit rings encircled it.
"Success! So she got an external spirit bone, no wonder it took a full four hours to absorb." Miaoxin was both surprised and regretful. "It's a pity. Tuo'er's wife (referring to Bing Di, who is also Yuwen Tuo's master from his previous life) took Xiao Xiao in first. Otherwise, no matter what, I would definitely take this little girl as my disciple."
"Tuo Tuo!" Xiao Xiao happily pounced into her beloved's arms. "Look at my eyes, aren't they beautiful?"
Yuwen Tuo smiled faintly, "Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful!"
