Hearing Chen Xin's question, Tianlin hesitated slightly. He had guessed it long ago. He could hide it from others, but he couldn't hide it from Chen Xin. With Chen Xin's current cultivation, the talisman he used to hide his true strength was useless at all.
"This disciple had some fortuitous encounters on this trip down the mountain, so he barely managed to break through level 50 and obtained a 45,000-year Spirit Ring." Tianlin answered, downplaying the important details.
Sure enough, before Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin could react, Dugu Bo and Gu Rong were already excited. Dugu Bo said, "A 45,000-year Fifth Spirit Ability, you Little Monster, I wasn't wrong to call you a monster."
"Old Sword Man, your disciple is cheating! I have evidence!" Gu Rong looked at Chen Xin with envy. His disciple was six years older than Tianlin, but his level was ten levels lower. The gap was too big.
"My disciple is full of cheats, which one are you talking about?" Chen Xin glanced at Gu Rong and replied. As his Master, he had never denied that his disciple was cheating.
While everyone was immersed in joy, only Ning Fengzhi remained thoughtful. After a while, he suddenly ordered, "Xiao Tian, release your second Spirit and let us see it."
"Uh!" Tianlin was stunned upon hearing this.
"You're good at shifting the topic, making Uncle Bone and the others only pay attention to your Demon Suppressing Sword's Fifth Spirit Ring, but ignoring a very important factor. You were level 45 when you went down the mountain. How did you break through to Soul King in such a short time, leveling up so many levels in one go? You once said that the medicinal power in your body was already excessive, and you couldn't take Immortal Herb again in a short time. So, the only method I can think of is that you have already started adding Spirit Rings to your second Spirit, and then used the power of the Spirit Rings to make your level skyrocket!"
Tianlin's heart tightened. As expected, it was okay to fool Gu Rong, but trying to deceive this wise Sect Master Ning was a fool's dream.
"What?" Chen Xin was furious and worried when he heard this, looking at Tianlin. They had told him many times that he should not add Spirit Rings to the Holy Spirit Pearl at will. This was not only a waste, but also for Tianlin's safety.
He was afraid that Tianlin would end up like the first Twin Spirits owner in history, exploding and dying. What worried him even more was that Tianlin had leveled up ten levels to nearly level 55, so Tianlin couldn't have only absorbed one ten-thousand-year Spirit Ring.
Chen Xin couldn't help but worry about Tianlin's body and future. This was an act of self-destruction.
Tianlin below was stared at by Ning Fengzhi and the three Titled Douluo, and he couldn't continue to hide it. Fortunately, the people in front of him were all trustworthy, so it didn't matter if he exposed it.
Tianlin raised his left hand, revealing his Holy Spirit Pearl. A snow-white Spirit Ring appeared. Seeing this, Gu Rong, with his explosive temper, couldn't help but say, "Ten-year Spirit Ring? Xiao Tian, what are you doing? Did you take our repeated instructions as wind in your ears? You're ruining your future for a moment of strength."
"Little Monster, can you tell me why? The you I know isn't such a reckless person!" Dugu Bo was also heartbroken. He wanted to protect Tianlin and help him grow to be the strongest, but he could only defend against external enemies and couldn't stop Tianlin's own actions.
Just as Tianlin was about to explain, Ning Fengzhi suddenly raised his hand to interrupt the two, "Uncle Bone, Uncle Dugu, don't worry, that's not a ten-year Spirit Ring."
"How could an ordinary ten-year Spirit Ring push Tianlin's Spirit power to the Soul King level? And have you forgotten? The strongest thing about my Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, besides its auxiliary ability, is its ability to appraise treasures. My pagoda tells me that Xiao Tian's Spirit Ring is unprecedentedly precious."
After Ning Fengzhi finished speaking, his eyes were fixed on Tianlin's Spirit Ring. He saw something extraordinary in it. This white Spirit Ring, like a ten-year one, actually emitted specks of golden light.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly, "So that's how it is. The real color is gold, or rather, platinum!"
"According to the records of a former Sect Master of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, golden light has appeared twice on the continent. The first time was on the sea, it was blue-gold, and the second time was before the Spirit Hall was established, it was gold."
"Xiao Tian, this Spirit Ring of yours, is it related to a god?"
This Ning Fengzhi has seen the script again. Tianlin can't hide any secrets from him. He has guessed almost everything. Soul Beasts become gods after a million years. Although the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm didn't pass the divine tribulation and doesn't have a divine position, nor does it have much combat power, its cultivation has undoubtedly reached the level of an ordinary god.
"God!" The three Titled Douluo were shocked and looked at Tianlin. That was a word that symbolized the strongest on their Douluo Continent. Could it be related to Tianlin, such a child?
"Damn, Xiao Tian, is your Sect Master cheating too? You're cheating with your strength, and he's cheating with his brain. I'm done for, I can't hide this time!" The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm wailed.
"It's okay, Brother Tianmeng, if someone else found out, we would be done for, but the ones above are all my best relatives." Tianlin comforted.
"Uncle Ning, since you've discovered it, I won't hide it anymore. My Spirit Ring is not a divine ring, but it comes from a million-year Soul Beast that has not passed the heavenly tribulation, named Tianmeng Ice Silkworm."
Tianlin slowly revealed his experiences in recent days, making some modifications, only hiding the Spirit Pearl Divine Sword and the Ferocious Beast. Even so, the four people, who were knowledgeable, were dumbfounded.
"A million-year Soul Beast, I didn't expect this legendary thing to actually exist!" Ning Fengzhi said with a wry smile, "It seems that the plan that Uncle Sword and Uncle Bone and I originally made needs to be slightly changed. I thought it would take you at least forty years to advance to Titled Douluo, but now it seems that it will be about twenty years old."
Chen Xin nodded, "Yes, Xiao Tian not only has terrifying talent, but his encounters are also unprecedented. He may have been born to bear the luck and is destined to become a god."
"Haha, then the few of us are the protectors given to him by God, right!" Dugu Bo laughed. He was really glad that he joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. With Tianlin's character of repaying kindness, when he becomes a god, he will definitely be able to get a share of the pie.
"You all shouldn't be too happy just yet. My Holy Spirit Pearl cannot be used for the time being. If people from outside forces were to discover it, I would be dead. Therefore, I can only use the Demon Suppressing Sword for now, so you should listen to my Demon Suppressing Sword's Fifth Spirit Ability before you celebrate." Tianlin reminded them.
Only then did Ning Fengzhi and the others remember that Tianlin had not only obtained his first Spirit Ring for his Holy Spirit Pearl this time, but his Demon Suppressing Sword had also obtained its fifth ring. They had been so overwhelmed by the million-year Spirit Ring that they didn't know what Tianlin's sword's Fifth Spirit Ability was yet.
