Chapter 160: Tang San, Who Has Absorbed a Spirit Ring, Encounters the Peerless Dragon and Snake Again!
To avoid being attacked again while flying, Yu Tianlin had no choice but to bring Ning Rongrong back down into the forest. He judged their position as he moved and led her back the way they came.
Along the way, they encountered several Spirit Beasts, all with cultivation levels above 5,000 years. Yet none of them attacked. Instead, they fled in panic, disappearing into the distance as if something terrifying was behind them.
Yu Tianlin naturally understood why.
It was because of the Titan Giant Ape.
No matter how unhappy he was, Yu Tianlin knew he was not its match right now. He did not dare provoke it. Instead, he used the direction of the fleeing Spirit Beasts to roughly determine where the Titan Giant Ape was, then took Ning Rongrong and skirted around it from the side.
With the surrounding Spirit Beasts all running for their lives, Yu Tianlin and Ning Rongrong were not disturbed. Their speed increased, and they covered a long distance quickly, finally returning to the outer edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Phew." Ning Rongrong let out a long breath the moment they reached the outskirts. "The Spirit Beasts we saw just now were only 1,000 or 2,000 years. This place should be safe now."
"Don't relax yet. There are signs of fighting ahead," Yu Tianlin immediately reminded her.
He caught a faint corrosive stench in the air. Following the smell, he saw patches of grass on the ground that had been completely corroded. Looking more carefully, he also noticed sharp marks carved into the surrounding trees.
There's more going on here.
Hearing Yu Tianlin's warning, Ning Rongrong could only force herself to stay alert again.
They took a few more steps forward, and the terrain opened up slightly. Beneath a tree lay a large black spider, motionless, clearly dead.
Its body was only about 1.5 meters long, but its eight legs were each over 3 meters. Since it had fallen on its back, Yu Tianlin could clearly see the patterns on its abdomen.
White markings formed a hideous human face.
It was a Human Faced Demon Spider.
With legs exceeding 3 meters, this Human Faced Demon Spider's cultivation was above 2,000 years.
A 2,000 year Human Faced Demon Spider.
Yu Tianlin's heart stirred. He quickly walked to the corpse's side, and only then did he notice the figure hidden behind it.
Tang San.
Ning Rongrong was a support type Spirit Master, so she stayed close to Yu Tianlin for safety. The moment she saw that figure, she gasped.
That's right.
It was Tang San.
He was sitting cross legged, with a purple Spirit Ring floating above his head. That Spirit Ring clearly belonged to the Human Faced Demon Spider, and Tang San was absorbing it right now.
What a coincidence.
Yu Tianlin felt speechless. He had not expected such a sudden shift in the middle of all this. Tang San was absorbing the Spirit Ring, but Yu Tianlin did not know whether he would still obtain the external Spirit Bone, the Eight Spider Lances, this time.
Just then, Yu Tianlin heard a sharp whooshing sound in the distance.
He turned his head and saw 3 uninvited guests rushing over.
Impressive. The legendary dragon and snake couple, plus Meng Yiran again.
What a small world.
When the trio saw the corpse of the Human Faced Demon Spider, and saw Yu Tianlin and Ning Rongrong standing beside it, their expressions turned extremely ugly.
"Senior Dragon Lord, Senior Snake Lady, and Meng Yiran, hello," Yu Tianlin said before any of them could speak. "What a coincidence, meeting you again."
"You brat from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and you little girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School," Meng Shu said coldly, his anger obvious. "You actually intercepted our prey again. Do you really think I, Meng Shu, am that easy to bully?"
"I'm sorry, but I really didn't kill this Human Faced Demon Spider." Yu Tianlin shook his head. He grabbed the corpse and dragged it slightly aside, exposing Tang San behind it. "We just arrived as well. The Human Faced Demon Spider was already dead. It should have been Tang San who killed it. He's absorbing the Spirit Ring right now."
Tang San.
The moment Meng Shu saw him, his pupils contracted.
He had already learned from Zhao Wuji that Tang San was Tang Hao's son.
And that kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was no ordinary person either. Over level 40 at such a young age, with a terrifying Spirit Ring configuration. His status within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was definitely not low.
Not to mention, there was also a girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School right beside him.
People from the 3 Upper Sects, gathered in one place.
Meng Shu suddenly felt a headache. What should he do?
Even if he was furious, the Human Faced Demon Spider was already dead. There was no point in clinging to it. Should he just swallow this anger, or should he kill these 3 little brats to vent his rage?
But there were no secrets that could stay buried forever. If this ever leaked out, they would be finished.
Still, backing down again was ridiculous. Retreat once for the Phoenix Tailed Crested Serpent, and retreat again for the Human Faced Demon Spider?
He could not accept it.
The strong had their dignity. With the peerless dragon and snake couple's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they would not retreat so shamefully even when facing a Titled Douluo, let alone now, against 3 juniors.
Seeing Meng Shu hesitate, clearly unwilling to leave and even showing signs of wanting to make trouble, Yu Tianlin could only speak again.
"Senior Dragon Lord, actually, Tang San taking this Human Faced Demon Spider is a good thing for you."
"Oh?" Before Meng Shu could respond, Meng Yiran's eyes turned red. She laughed in anger. "Then should I thank you?"
"In a sense, yes." Yu Tianlin nodded seriously. Before Meng Yiran could argue, he continued, "Because this Human Faced Demon Spider's cultivation is over 2,000 years. It exceeds the absorption limit for a third Spirit Ring. If you absorb its Spirit Ring, there's a very high chance you'll explode and die."
Hearing that, the dragon and snake couple exchanged a shocked glance.
"Impossible! Don't try to fool us with such a trash excuse!" Meng Yiran snapped. "If this Spirit Ring really exceeded the limit, how can you be so calm? Your teammate is absorbing it right now. Aren't you afraid he'll explode and die?"
"First, this is Tang San's own choice, and I don't need to worry about his affairs," Yu Tianlin said calmly. "Second, you've all seen my Spirit Rings. Every one of them was absorbed beyond my level. I have personal experience, so I'm qualified to speak about absorbing Spirit Rings beyond one's limit."
"People's physiques aren't the same. Tang San is also absorbing beyond the limit, but the difference is no more than 500 years. With his abilities, he basically won't fail."
"But you're different."
"There's a 99% chance you'd explode and die."
