113: Chapter 113: Fusion Problem? Encountering the Goddess Again!
Su Ling had long wanted to use the Top-tier Spirit, which he had also opened from a red treasure chest.
The reason he hadn't used it before was that his physical condition at the time was not enough to add a spirit ring to his second Spirit.
Secondly, his own Spirit had not yet fully formed, so using it at that time might not have yielded the best or most suitable spirit ring.
Out of caution, he hadn't rushed to add it!
While thinking, Su Ling was also waiting.
The System used to react very quickly in this regard, but as time passed second by second, about a dozen breaths had gone by, and the System still hadn't responded.
Could the System have crashed?
Just as Su Ling was about to ask, the System's prompt finally sounded.
[Ding... Top-tier Spirit addition failed. Currently unable to match a suitable Spirit for the Host.]
"Damn, what's going on?"
"No suitable Spirit!"
"System, explain this to me. Is it that I'm not worthy of the Top-tier Spirit, or what?" Su Ling thought to himself.
Su Ling had thought of every possibility, but he had never considered the possibility of failure.
[Ding... Detected that the Host's Spirit, Primordial War Bow, has already surpassed the category of Top-tier Spirit. Therefore, it is unable to grant the Host a matching Top-tier Spirit.]
My... goodness!
Su Ling was speechless; he couldn't even use this.
"Alright, I understand!"
"It seems that only a Spirit opened from a golden treasure chest or a super treasure chest might be able to match it."
"System, if someone else's Spirit is slightly inferior to a Top-tier Spirit, can they match with a Top-tier Spirit? Or does one have to be a possessor of a Top-tier Spirit to be able to match and obtain a suitable Top-tier Spirit?" Su Ling asked again.
[If the user's Spirit is not too inferior to a Top-tier Spirit, it can be used!]
"Okay, I got it." Su Ling said helplessly.
Looking at the System's ten-thousand-year spirit rings that went up to 99,999 years, the hundred-thousand-year spirit rings, and even the million-year spirit ring that Su Ling possessed but couldn't use.
He had originally planned to complete a transformation here, and by delaying a few months for the Titan Giant Ape to recover, he would have at least reached the level of a Spirit Douluo.
Unfortunately, the Spirit could not be added, so his plan to absorb spirit rings to rapidly increase his Soul Power had to be put on hold.
Forget it, I'll just continue to Cultivate.
Sitting cross-legged, Su Ling also entered into Cultivation.
Since he had said he would wait a few months, Su Ling kept his promise.
In the following time, Su Ling stayed at the Lake of Life, and besides his usual Cultivation, he would also wander around the Lake of Life.
During this period, Su Ling gave Xiao Wu Medicinal Pill, and in just over two months, Xiao Wu's Soul Power increased from level fifty-five to level fifty-six.
Erlong's Soul Power remained at level eighty-three; it was still very difficult for a Spirit Douluo to increase by one level.
Su Ling used the results of the goddess's accumulated three months of Cultivation again.
Originally, Su Ling's Soul Power had reached over level seventy-two after absorbing the spirit ring, and with the help of these three months of Cultivation, his Soul Power successfully increased to level seventy-three.
After a little over two months, the Titan Giant Ape's injuries had basically recovered, and it was time for Su Ling to leave.
"Brother Su, when can I come out?" Xiao Wu asked, very reluctant to see Su Ling leaving.
Su Ling said: "Xiao Wu, wait until you are level sixty. By then, disguise yourself, come to Heaven Dou City to find me, or go directly to Shrek Academy to find Sister Liu."
"Level sixty?" Xiao Wu revealed a smile after hearing this.
"Okay, then I'll wait until after level sixty."
Her Soul Power was now level fifty-six, not far from level sixty, and after taking the Nine-Rank Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, her Cultivation speed had increased significantly.
With the Spirit Jade Arts Su Ling gave her, Xiao Wu was confident that she could reach level sixty within two years, or even in about a year.
"I will work hard to Cultivate!" Xiao Wu said, clenching her fists.
"Good luck!" Su Ling nodded.
After saying this, Su Ling looked at Da Ming and Er Ming, then said: "Da Ming, Er Ming, I want to remind you of one thing. The people we killed before wanted to obtain your spirit rings and Spirit Bones, but there might be even more powerful forces that have learned of your tracks."
After thinking about it, Su Ling decided to give a warning; after all, his arrival had changed the plot. What if Bibi Dong came early?
If it weren't for his butterfly effect, these people from the Clear Sky Sect might not have come to the Lake of Life, or they might not have encountered the Titan Giant Ape at all.
"Brother Su, are you talking about Bibi Dong and the others? The one who killed my mother." Xiao Wu asked.
"That's right!" Su Ling nodded.
"They might come here in the next few years; you must be careful." Su Ling said.
Da Ming said: "Su Ling, don't worry, we will definitely protect Xiao Wu well."
"That's right, and we must avenge Aunt Qingwu." Er Ming said.
Er Ming usually didn't speak, but he was an exception with Su Ling.
At this point, Su Ling smiled.
Da Ming and Er Ming looked at Su Ling, not knowing why.
Su Ling shook his head and said: "You underestimate those people. Bibi Dong has level ninety-eight Soul Power; it would be very difficult for you to deal with just her, and she has several Titled Douluo under her command."
"Among them, there are two Titled Douluo who can use a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which, when unleashed, can simultaneously control both you, Da Ming and Er Ming."
"If you two are controlled, can Xiao Wu defeat them?"
"And I can guarantee one hundred percent that those two Titled Douluo can definitely control you both at the same time." Su Ling said earnestly.
Xiao Wu could see that Su Ling wasn't joking.
"Are we supposed to leave the Lake of Life?" Xiao Wu said in a low voice, falling into thought.
"Leave?"
Da Ming and Er Ming were also extremely unwilling.
But if it was really as Su Ling said, the danger would be too great if they didn't leave.
Su Ling said: "If you don't want to leave, there is actually a way."
"Da Ming, Er Ming, can you control other Spirit Beasts? Or rather, command other Spirit Beasts?" Su Ling asked.
"Of course we can." Da Ming said confidently.
The Titan Giant Ape was also very confident in this point; after all, it was the King of the Forest.
Su Ling said: "From now on, gather some powerful Spirit Beasts, preferably those over fifty thousand years old, and gather as many as possible at the Lake of Life or in the surrounding area."
"When they come, you will be able to cope with them."
This was the only way Su Ling could think of to resist Bibi Dong effectively without leaving the Lake of Life.
As long as Da Ming and Er Ming controlled enough powerful Spirit Beasts, even if Bibi Dong came with several Titled Douluo, it would be difficult for her to gain any advantage.
After all, many powerful Spirit Beasts, even if they only have a few tens of thousands of years of age, actually have combat power no worse than some Titled Douluo.
Once the number is large enough, with Da Ming and Er Ming commanding, they really wouldn't be afraid.
Even if Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo used the Two-Pronged Static Domain, they couldn't control so many Spirit Beasts at once.
"Brother Su, this is a good method; maybe we can even get revenge." Xiao Wu said joyfully.
Da Ming said: "We have lived here at the Lake of Life for thousands of years. Actually, there used to be many powerful Spirit Beasts here, but we like quiet, so we drove them away."
Er Ming continued: "That's right, now there are no Spirit Beasts in a large area around the Lake of Life."
"Su Ling, your idea is very good. Er Ming and I will go and gather some high-age, powerful combat-capable Spirit Beasts as soon as possible." Da Ming said.
"Good! Remember, it's best to have all kinds of Spirit Beasts so that there can be better coordination." Su Ling reminded.
"Also Xiao Wu, don't think about revenge for now; protecting yourself first is the most important thing." Su Ling said.
"Mm! Brother Su, I know, I will listen to you." Xiao Wu replied obediently.
"Alright, Sister Liu and I will leave now." Su Ling waved his hand, preparing to leave.
"Brother Su!"
Tears welled up in Xiao Wu's eyes, and she threw herself at him.
The 99 favorability rating made her reluctant to part with Su Ling!
Su Ling stroked Xiao Wu's long hair and said: "Xiao Wu, good luck, we will be able to meet again very soon."
"Mm!" Xiao Wu said with a sobbing tone.
She hugged Su Ling tightly and then stood on tiptoe to kiss him.
Liu Erlong just watched from the side, while Da Ming and Er Ming turned around.
Their Sister Xiao Wu no longer belonged to them.
And they fully approved of Su Ling.
For a long time, the two separated!
It wasn't until the figures of Su Ling and Liu Erlong completely disappeared that Xiao Wu turned back.
"Da Ming, Er Ming, this time I must work harder than before."
"And Brother Su's words, Da Ming, you must do it quickly." Xiao Wu said; this was not only to protect her but also to protect Da Ming and Er Ming.
"No problem!" Da Ming said.
...
Su Ling and Liu Erlong left the Lake of Life and ran outwards at the fastest speed.
They didn't spend the night in the Star Dou Great Forest even when it got dark.
After all, the Star Dou Great Forest was not like the Sunset Forest; the potential dangers were greater.
By noon the next day, the two arrived in the thousand-year Spirit Beast zone.
[Ding... Detected a goddess with a comprehensive value exceeding 90 within five hundred meters of the Host!]
[Goddess: Yang Qingyu]
[Goddess Comprehensive Value: 92]
[Binding Requirement: Favorability above 60]
[Current Favorability: Unknown]
Su Ling, who was on the move, suddenly stopped.
"Su Ling, what's wrong with you?" Liu Erlong asked curiously.
Su Ling released his Mental Energy and quickly locked onto the direction of the goddess.
Generally speaking, when encountering a goddess who had not appeared in the original work, as long as the goddess's comprehensive value was not high, he wouldn't take the initiative to say hello.
After all, there were already enough goddesses around him, and they were of better quality.
But this name was in the depths of Su Ling's memory.
Strictly speaking, it was in the depths of his predecessor's memory.
This memory was from before he was seven years old; Yang Qingyu was from the Breaking Clan and grew up with his predecessor, and her age was only a few months younger than Su Ling.
She should be twenty-one years old now!
Was it her?
Under his Mental Energy exploration, this girl was very tall, her height estimated to be nearly 1.8 meters.
Holding a long spear, what could it be if not the Soul Breaking Spear?
Beside her were two middle-aged men and women, one of whom held a Soul Breaking Spear, and the other was an agility-attack type Beast Spirit.
It could basically be confirmed that this was the girl in the predecessor's memory of Su Ling.
In his memory, the two almost had an arranged marriage after Awakening their Soul Power.
Although the Water Moon Bow Spirit was not particularly good, at least Su Ling had awakened an Innate level seven Soul Power at the time, and Yang Qingyu's Soul Power was slightly lower, at Innate level six.
However, having the third-ranked attack Tool Spirit, the Soul Breaking Spear, gave her a lot of extra points.
At that time, because Su Ling went to absorb a spirit ring, he escaped death after leaving the Family.
If it had developed according to the progress at that time, after he returned as a Spirit Master, he might have become engaged to her.
Therefore, Yang Qingyu was very clear in the predecessor's memory.
At this time, Yang Qingyu was wearing a white tight-fitting outfit that outlined her perfect figure, and she also had a pair of long legs just like Huo Wu.
Her hair was tied high, looking clean and neat, heroic and spirited, and holding a long spear, this image was simply amazing.
The three were chasing a four-thousand-year Spirit Beast.
However, the direction this Spirit Beast was fleeing was exactly the location of Liu Erlong and Su Ling.
While Su Ling was observing, Liu Erlong also looked over, and after a while, she said: "Su Ling, they are coming."
"Mm!"
"Then do you want to help?" Liu Erlong asked.
"Mm!"
"Do you fancy that girl?"
"Mm!"
"This... Sister Liu, I want to say, I know this girl." Su Ling said.
"Coming!"
The four-thousand-year Spirit Beast rushed over from below, and Su Ling dropped down from the tree trunk, standing directly in front of where the Spirit Beast was about to rush.
He didn't release his Spirit; he just stood there.
"Kid in front, are you crazy? Move away quickly." Yang Qingyu said quickly.
Seeing that it was about to rush over, Su Ling threw a punch with one hand, and this Spirit Beast was actually blasted away directly.
This surprised the three people who were chasing it.
After all, looking at Su Ling's age, he was not big, just about twenty years old, and he had easily blasted away a four-thousand-year Spirit Beast with one hand?
"Tha, thank you!" Yang Qingyu said, taking a look at Su Ling, just feeling very familiar but unable to recall for a moment.
After all, the last time they met was when they were six or seven years old.
The man and woman behind also had some impressions in their minds when they looked at Su Ling.
Fortunately, he helped them stop this Spirit Beast, and he didn't kill it, which was a huge help.
Seeing that the three didn't recognize him, Su Ling didn't dawdle, so he said: "Uncle Chengmo, Aunt Lan, look and see who I am?"
"You... do you know us?" Yang Chengmo and Qin Lan looked at Su Ling suspiciously.
After observing Su Ling carefully, Qin Lan said: "You are, you couldn't be Su Ling, right! Are you really Su Ling?"
Su Ling nodded, smiled, and said: "Yes, I am Su Ling."
"Great, you are really still alive!" The two came to Su Ling at once.
The more they looked, the more they remembered the appearance of Su Ling when he was a child.
The two people in front of him were not Yang Qingyu's parents; Yang Qingyu was Yang Wudi's granddaughter, and also his only granddaughter. As for her father, he was killed by people from the Spirit Hall more than a decade ago.
At the same time, Yang Qingyu over there also killed the four-thousand-year Spirit Beast with one strike.
Because she was too focused on the battle, she didn't hear the conversation on Su Ling's side.
Su Ling said: "Don't tell Qingyu yet, wait until she absorbs the spirit ring."
"Okay, no problem." Yang Chengmo said.
The Soul Power of these two was also not bad; they were both Spirit Emperors.
Yang Chengmo had level sixty-seven Soul Power, and Qin Lan had level sixty-three.
It was naturally no problem for them to bring a level forty Spirit Master to find a fourth spirit ring.
"Let me introduce you. This is the Vice Dean of Shrek Academy, Liu Erlong, a level eighty-three Spirit Douluo." Su Ling introduced.
"Greetings, Senior!" Yang Chengmo and Qin Lan immediately saluted.
Liu Erlong said: "No need for that!"
At this time, Yang Qingyu was speechless; she had hunted the spirit ring, and no one paid attention to her.
"Uncle Mo, Aunt Lan, I'm going to absorb the spirit ring." Yang Qingyu said.
At this time, Qin Lan came to her side, smiled and said: "Qingyu, go ahead and absorb the spirit ring, we will Guard you."
Yang Qingyu took a look at Su Ling and Liu Erlong; she always felt something was wrong.
They were both standing on the side; what if they had ulterior motives?
"Aunt Lan, should we wait a little longer?" Yang Qingyu's eyes swept over Su Ling and Liu Erlong, and she also gave Qin Lan a hint.
"Don't worry, with me and your Uncle Mo here, there's no problem." Qin Lan said earnestly.
"Oh, alright then!" After saying this, Yang Qingyu tidied up the ground, took a look at Su Ling, and then sat cross-legged to adjust her state and start absorbing the spirit ring.
Su Ling originally wanted to return to Heaven Dou City, but now he would definitely be delayed for some time.
In the future, when he had time, Su Ling also had plans to find the Breaking Clan.
The Strength Clan were old sycophants of Tang Hao and his son; it was estimated that he couldn't take them down.
However, the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan were still easy to deal with.
As for the Speed Clan, it was also difficult; they should be about the same as the Strength Clan.
Don't look at that old thing Bai He hating Tang San and Tang Hao; in fact, as long as he was given enough of a step down, he would be the same as the Strength Clan.
Even if he was won over, maybe one day he would rebel.
Su Ling had some connection with these clans; even if he didn't use them after integrating and gathering them, he couldn't let it benefit that little bastard.
At this time, Su Ling looked at the System again; Yang Qingyu's favorability rating also appeared.
Initial favorability rating was 3 points, not high but not low!
Fortunately, she didn't recognize him; if she had, the initial favorability rating wouldn't be this low, and wouldn't that mean he would have received fewer treasure chests?
