Chapter 111 Tang San's Second Soul Ring
Looking into Tang San's sincere and stubborn eyes, Tang Chuan knew that further persuasion would be useless.
With a physique built upon a soul bone and Immortal Herb, perhaps it really will work.
Moreover, in the original novel, Tang San did have a precedent of absorbing a spirit ring beyond his level, so this thousand-year-old earth vein demon vine was nothing to him.
Most importantly, Tang Chuan knew that Tang San was not a reckless person.
Since he dared to try, it means that Tang San really had a certain degree of confidence. Moreover, he also had the Mysterious Heaven Art and the Soul Bone Technique of Rebirth and Regeneration, which could save his life in critical moments.
"All right!"
Tang Chuan finally sighed, his face full of worry and helplessness, but he looked like he believed his younger brother: "Since you insist, then we'll listen to you."
"But you must act within your limits. If you feel something is wrong, stop. Safety first."
Don't worry, bro!
I won't let you down!
Tang San nodded emphatically, a bright smile spreading across his face.
He walked to the 1,200-year-old earth vein demon vine, sat cross-legged, adjusted his breathing, circulated the Mysterious Heaven Art, and adjusted his internal energy to its optimal state.
Then, with a flick of his wrist, he pulled a dagger from the moonlit night of the Twenty-Four Bridges.
It pierced into the thick main stem of the vine, decisively ending the life of the earth vein demon vine.
The earth vein demon vine had already been knocked unconscious by the Dragon Lord, so it didn't even struggle. The brownish-yellow sap flowed out from the wound where the dagger had been removed, and soon it lit up with a purple hue.
A pale purple soul force rose from the corpse of the earth vein demon vine and condensed into a pale purple spirit ring in mid-air.
Millennium Spirit Ring!
Tang San narrowed his eyes, took a deep breath, and made up his mind.
The Blue Silver King Spirit appeared in his palm, its silver threads shimmering, and a bright yellow soul ring pulsed slowly beneath him.
Tang San released his soul power, causing the thousand-year spirit ring to float towards the Blue Silver King Spirit in his hand.
The moment the spirit ring touched the Blue Silver King, a gentle yet powerful spirit force surged into his body. Tang San let out a muffled groan, his expression changing slightly.
The immense soul power contained within the thousand-year-old spirit ring surged into his body, causing his meridians to ache.
"Hmm!"
A violent tearing sensation came over Tang San, his forehead veins bulged, cold sweat seeped out and soaked his clothes, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"The mistress..."
Tang Chuan called out nervously, his voice full of worry.
Unlike Tang Chuan's apparent nervousness, Tang Hao remained detached and indifferent throughout, simply standing by with his arms crossed, offering no comment whatsoever.
He acted as if everything happening before his eyes had nothing to do with him.
He wanted to see just how much skill this kid had up his sleeve, daring to absorb even a thousand-year-old spirit ring!
Seeing that even the Clear Sky Douluo hadn't stopped his son from absorbing a spirit ring beyond his level, Dugu Bo and the Dragon Lord and Snake Lady naturally didn't dare to say anything more.
She simply looked at Tang San with a complicated expression.
Meng Yiran clenched her little hands tightly, staring intently at Tang San, her face tense, as if afraid something might happen to him.
She had seen her peers in the Academy absorb spirit rings, but none of them had dared to challenge the Thousand Years' Spirit Ring with their second spirit ring like Tang San, and had shown such determination.
Watching Tang San's profile and the tips of his gradient blue hair sway slightly under the surge of soul power.
Meng Yiran subconsciously pursed her lips, her heart tightening inexplicably, her eyes revealing worry, admiration, and a barely perceptible flutter of emotion.
Tang San focused his mind and fully activated the Mysterious Heaven Art, guiding his soul power to circulate through his meridians.
Gradually, he tamed the raging soul power into a gentle stream.
A bright green light shone from his left knee, and several vines, glistening with water droplets, sprouted from under his trouser leg, enveloping his entire body.
The effect of regeneration travels along the meridians, slowly neutralizing the impact of the soul power.
At the same time, the power of the Immortal Herb that had not yet been fully absorbed in the body was also activated, and together with the cool vitality emitted by the Water Frog Demon Lotus Soul Bone, it continuously repaired and nourished the meridians that had been impacted by the soul power.
Although the process was painful, he could still accept it.
With unwavering conviction, he was determined to obtain a second spirit ring with Blue Silver Network soul skills so that he could help his brother build the food delivery platform.
Following the method taught by Teacher Zhou from the Academy, Tang San concentrated his mind and communicated with the spirit ring in his heart.
"The Earth Vein Vine excels at taking root underground, sensing movement, and transmitting information. What I need is a Blue Silver Network Soul Skill that can transmit information..."
He remembered Teacher Zhou saying that soul skills originated from the abilities that soul beasts were best at in their previous lives.
After combining with the Spirit, it is influenced by the Soul Master's own consciousness and eventually takes shape to produce a Soul Skill, the effect of which is almost exactly as the Soul Master expected.
Many Soul Master families obtain their first few fixed Soul Skills through this method.
Tang San and his brother analyzed it.
The difference between obtaining a spirit ring from a soul beast and obtaining a divinely bestowed spirit ring is that a divinely bestowed spirit ring will provide the soul skill most suitable for the soul master, while obtaining a soul beast requires consideration of its compatibility with the spirit.
Moreover, the upper limit of a divinely bestowed spirit ring is higher than that of an ordinary spirit ring.
Tang San certainly wouldn't dare to hope for a divinely bestowed spirit ring.
That's why, over the past three months, they have been constantly inquiring about soul beasts that can provide information transmission soul rings to soul masters, and finally locked onto the Earth Vein Demon Vine.
Compared to other spirit beasts, the Earth Vein Demon Vine and the Blue Silver Grass Spirit are highly compatible.
Perhaps it was because the Earth Vein Demon Vine was forcibly knocked unconscious by Dragon Lord Meng Shu, leaving it in a dazed state; or perhaps it was because Tang San had a strong will and guided it correctly; or perhaps it was a combination of both.
The residual consciousness of the Inner Vein Demon Vine in the spirit ring did not cause much interference to Tang San.
Moreover, Tang San's physique was indeed far superior to that of his peers. With the aid of Immortal Herbs and soul bones, although his face was in pain, his breathing remained undisturbed.
The pale purple spirit ring was gradually shrinking, enveloping the Blue Silver King Spirit...
Time passed little by little.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Tang San opened his eyes. A light purple spirit ring appeared next to his first spirit ring at his feet. His pale face regained its rosy hue, and his aura increased significantly.
The Blue Silver King vines swayed in the air, their silver patterns shimmering with a faint light.
Seeing the pale purple thousand-year spirit ring appear beneath Tang San, and the silver patterns on the Blue Silver King vine of his Spirit lighting up, Meng Yiran breathed a sigh of relief, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes.
Then she quickly lowered her head, afraid that others would notice how much she cared.
Snake Granny Chaotianxiang saw this and couldn't help but gently pat her hand, a smile playing on her lips.
Dugu Yan also came over, looking at the stable thousand-year spirit ring under Tang San's feet, and asked Tang Chuan with wide eyes in surprise, "Your brother really absorbed it successfully?"
"When I was level 20, I almost couldn't withstand absorbing an 800-year-old spirit ring..."
"Your brother is amazing!"
As he spoke, Tang San felt a fluctuation emanating from the Blue Silver King Vine in his palm, as if countless sensory lines had appeared. Following one of these lines, he could receive fragmented information from the Blue Silver Grass connected to the other end of the sensory line.
The rustling of the wind through the grass, the passage of time of the Pink Lady clan...
"Brother, I did it!"
Tang San stood up excitedly, grinned at his brother Tang Chuan, and said, "And just like we thought, my second soul skill is Blue Silver Network!"
"It allows me to communicate with the Blue Silver Grass anytime, anywhere, and receive the messages they convey to me."
