62: Chapter 62 Shocking! Tang San Failed to Absorb the Soul Ring?

Misty Forest, Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area!

"Little San, this Spirit Beast has already reached over 4,800 years. It is more than enough to be your fourth spirit ring. Why are you still pursuing a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?"

Yu Xiaogang scolded Tang San in front of him.

This was a 4,800-year-old Spirit Beast, already close to the limit of his theoretical fourth spirit ring, yet Tang San was still not satisfied.

"Teacher, Su Ling obtained a spirit ring over ten thousand years old for his fourth spirit ring. I can do the same; I am no worse than him." Tang San said with a confident look.

Watching the 4,800-year-old Spirit Beast slip away, Tang San still insisted on his own idea.

"Little San, you cannot compare yourself to Su Ling. He... sigh, forget it. Since you have chosen to want a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, then go find one, but this Spirit Beast's age absolutely cannot exceed 12,000 years." Yu Xiaogang said helplessly.

"Thank you, Teacher! I understand." Tang San said with a happy face. He felt that only by absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring would he not fall too far behind Su Ling.

"Let's go, we are going to the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area." Yu Xiaogang said.

"It's a pity that we didn't encounter a suitable Spirit Beast for Xiao Wu along the way." Tang San said with a look of regret.

"Brother, it's okay. Find your spirit ring first; I'm not in a hurry." Xiao Wu responded quickly.

Xiao Wu was also fortunate that she hadn't encountered a suitable Spirit Beast; otherwise, if they really killed one for her to absorb, it would be troublesome.

"Great Master, are you really letting Tang San absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring? And at the fourth spirit ring position?" Situ Liefeng asked in confusion.

Yu Xiaogang was also helpless and said: "Dean Situ, actually this cannot be blamed on Little San for not understanding. In fact, we really did meet someone at Shrek Academy who successfully absorbed a ten-thousand-year spirit ring at level 40."

"It is precisely because someone succeeded that Little San wants to try."

"So that's how it is. I didn't expect someone could actually succeed. I remember one time, a student at the academy didn't listen to instructions and thought that a 5,300-year spirit ring was just over 5,000 years, thinking it didn't exceed by much, so he tried to absorb it. The result... sigh..."

"Anyway, one must be cautious when absorbing spirit rings beyond one's rank. Since he has chosen it himself, let's go to the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area. Everyone must be careful from now on; the danger in the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area is several times higher than here." Situ Liefeng said.

"Let me lead the way. My Purple Demon Eye can see very far and can avoid quite a bit of danger!" Tang San volunteered and stepped forward.

At this moment, Su Ling was on his way out of the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area, while Tang San was heading in.

Just as Tang San and the others were about to approach the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area, Su Ling's eyes lit up. He didn't expect to be so lucky to encounter one on the way out.

Seeing that Tang San's eyes were already purple, the Purple Demon Eye was quite good for leading the way, but the distance Tang San could see was still far inferior to Su Ling's.

Su Ling could see Tang San, but Tang San could not see Su Ling in the distance.

"Xiao Wu is also level 40, so let's help Xiao Wu condense her fourth spirit ring first." Su Ling thought to himself.

Looking at the surrounding Spirit Beasts, Su Ling already had an idea.

...

One hour later!

"Everyone, stop!"

"Run!" He shouted loudly.

"Little San, what's wrong?" Dai Mubai asked.

"Spirit Beasts, Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts are coming from different directions. There are at least twenty or more." Tang San said.

"How is it possible for so many Spirit Beasts to gather? Let me see." Situ Liefeng didn't quite believe it, but just as he was checking, a Dragon of at least 30,000 years rushed over.

"Run!"

He didn't care about a few ordinary ten-thousand-year Spirit Beasts, but with dozens of them coming, it was difficult, and there was even a life-threatening danger.

"You go first; I will block for a while." Situ Liefeng knew that Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power was not high, and the Soul Power of a Spirit Elder and a Spirit Ancestor was useless if they stayed, so he decided to stay and block for a while before escaping.

And the culprit behind all of this, of course, was Su Ling.

When the few people were running, Su Ling had already put away the fragrant immortal grass.

Half an hour ago, Su Ling had gone around the road to get behind them, and then Su Ling took out the fragrant immortal grass, a good thing that could attract Spirit Beasts.

Not only could it make them encounter a crisis, but he could also take advantage of the chaos to take Xiao Wu away.

"They are coming from this side too."

Su Ling looked back, and the Spirit Beasts in the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast area were also moving in his direction together.

It could be said that with him as the center, there were Spirit Beasts from all directions.

At this time, where Tang San was, after running a circle, he found that Xiao Wu was not among them.

"Xiao Wu."

Tang San turned around to look for Xiao Wu.

"Little San, run quickly." Dai Mubai said.

"Run... can't run anymore. There are Spirit Beasts on all sides." Yu Xiaogang said with a terrified face.

"What exactly is going on? Why are there so many Spirit Beasts?"

While speaking, Situ Liefeng had already caught up, but found that there were still so many Spirit Beasts.

"Xiao Wu is missing; I have to go find her." Tang San ran back resolutely, but Situ Liefeng stopped Tang San.

"Tang San, Xiao Wu is not behind. I didn't see her figure all the way here just now."

"Right now, fortunately, there are mostly thousand-year Spirit Beasts here, and we can still handle it."

"Xiao Wu must have gone in the wrong direction. She will definitely come back to look for us after she is safe." Dai Mubai came to Tang San and comforted him.

"Then... then that's all we can do." Tang San said helplessly.

Just at this time, the surrounding Spirit Beasts began to leave again, as if only a few Spirit Beasts were left wanting to deal with them.

"Hey, Little San, that is a ten-thousand-year Blood Jade Spider; it should be around 11,000 years." Yu Xiaogang suddenly spoke.

"It really is." Situ Liefeng said.

"I will help you kill it."

At this time, Situ Liefeng was also interested and wanted to see if Tang San could really absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.

And at this time, Su Ling had already gone far away, not knowing that his arrival had actually helped Tang San find a suitable Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Five kilometers away from where Tang San was.

"Brother Su, is that you?" Xiao Wu looked around, searching for Su Ling's figure.

"It's me."

"Xiao Wu, long time no see!" Su Ling said. At this time, he had already taken off the thousand illusion mask and changed into a new set of clothes.

Seeing Su Ling coming, Xiao Wu also smiled and then said: "Brother Su, those Spirit Beasts just now were led by you, right?"

"That's right, but the Spirit Beasts have retreated now. They shouldn't be in any danger, so you don't need to worry about them." Su Ling said, not hiding it.

"That's good if there's no danger."

"Sigh... Brother Su, I still miss the days at Shrek. Are Zhuqing and Rongrong doing well?" Xiao Wu continued.

Su Ling said: "They are all doing well, and everyone misses you too."

"However, let's not talk about other things for now. I noticed that you have also reached level 40, but everyone is looking for a spirit ring for you again, so you must be very anxious. That's why I led out some Spirit Beasts to let you leave, so you can take this opportunity to condense your fourth spirit ring."

"Hehe, I knew what you meant, Brother Su." Xiao Wu said with a smile.

For her, it was truly a relief, otherwise she really didn't know how to face Tang San and his group.

[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +6, obtained white treasure chest * 3, purple treasure chest * 1]

Hey, Xiao Wu's favorability increased so easily?

Could it be that her feelings for Tang San are declining?

"Let's go, let's go to a hidden location to avoid meeting them." Su Ling said.

"Okay!"

Following behind Su Ling, the two walked for about another five kilometers and came to a somewhat hidden mountain col.

Su Ling directly took out the High-Level Protection Array.

After setting it up, Su Ling said: "Xiao Wu, go ahead and condense your spirit ring; I will Guard you."

"Thank you, Brother Su."

After speaking, Xiao Wu sat down on the spot, but when she sat down, she found that the ground was a soft cushion.

Xiao Wu didn't say anything.

Su Ling knew that her heart was already filled with gratitude.

[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +1, obtained white treasure chest * 1]

Xiao Wu and Tang San were absorbing spirit rings at almost the same time.

Su Ling took a look at Xiao Wu's panel.

At this time, her favorability had increased to 52 points, and it was getting close to the 60 favorability needed for bonding.

This time, he might really be able to bond with Xiao Wu.

Without the attraction of the fragrant immortal grass, the Spirit Beasts retreated, and the Misty Forest returned to calm.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Wu finally condensed her fourth spirit ring and successfully broke through to become a Spirit Ancestor.

"Congratulations, Xiao Wu." Su Ling said.

"If it weren't for you coming, Brother Su, I wouldn't know how to deal with this time. That Situ Liefeng is an 83rd-level Spirit Douluo. Fortunately, with the medicinal herbs you gave me, he didn't discover my identity." Xiao Wu said.

"You must protect those medicinal herbs well; they must not fall out." Su Ling said.

"Don't worry, Brother Su, they absolutely won't fall out." Xiao Wu patted her chest and said. It was a bit longer than when she left last time, but not by much.

"Xiao Wu, you were only level 31 or 32 before you left. How did you improve so much in this period?" Su Ling asked curiously.

"Brother Su, it's like this. After we left Shrek Academy, we were supposed to go to Spirit City. I didn't want to go, but Brother and Great Master insisted on going. Fortunately, they finally reached an agreement and chose not to go to Spirit City, otherwise I would have to separate from them."

"Later, when we passed by a nameless mountain range, Brother said he wanted to leave for a while. We waited for him for two days before he returned. After returning, Brother had already improved to level 39, and then he gave me and Great Master a medicinal herb to take, which made me reach level 38, and even Great Master reached level 30."

"After level 30, Great Master also found a spirit ring, and his Soul Power improved to level 34."

"Later on, we met that Dai Mubai. I don't know why Brother trusts Dai Mubai so much, and Great Master is the same. Anyway, this Dai Mubai is very annoying. Along the way, we..."

...

Xiao Wu said a lot, almost telling everything about their journey.

After all, it was late at night, and it wasn't convenient to go back.

So they stayed and waited until dawn to go back.

Su Ling and Xiao Wu chatted all night like this.

[Ding... Xiao Wu's favorability +1, obtained white treasure chest * 1]

Just as the sky was getting bright in the morning, Su Ling took Xiao Wu and looked for them.

But when Su Ling checked with the Eye of True Sight, he frowned.

"Brother Su, what's wrong?" Xiao Wu asked with a confused look.

"Xiao Wu, when you go back, you must not say you met me, okay? You can't let them know I've been here." Su Ling said.

"Hmm." Xiao Wu nodded, and then continued: "Brother Su, I know. I definitely won't say it out."

"Xiao Wu, then hurry over. Tang San, he..."

"What's wrong with my brother?" Xiao Wu asked anxiously.

Su Ling said: "Tang San might be in danger now. How could he choose to absorb a ten-thousand-year fourth spirit ring?"

"Xiao Wu, Tang San... he might not be able to hold on."

"Ah, then Brother Su, I'll go over first." After Xiao Wu finished speaking, she immediately ran towards Tang San's direction.

"Remember, don't expose me." Su Ling transmitted his voice to Xiao Wu again.

Does this Tang San really think he can absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring this time?

Without the help of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and without the fully adapted Eight Spider Lances? Can he do it!

Su Ling saw that Tang San's condition was very bad at this moment.

The Eight Spider Lances had already been used, but the effect seemed to be small.

As for the Eight Spider Lances, Tang San shouldn't have been able to absorb them originally.

I don't know what method Yu Xiaogang used to make Tang San successfully absorb them.

Yu Xiaogang still has some tricks, but not many.

Although he barely absorbed the Eight Spider Lances, he lost the biggest feature of the external Spirit Bone — evolution.

That is to say, Tang San's Eight Spider Lances remained permanently at the age of just over two thousand years and could not go any further, and its effect was also discounted.

Just as Xiao Wu was about to go back.

With a puff sound.

A large mouthful of blood sprayed out from Tang San's mouth, and blood also appeared on his body, soaking his clothes. This was very similar to the scene of Su Ling's predecessor failing to absorb a spirit ring.

Undoubtedly, Tang San's absorption of the ten-thousand-year spirit ring had failed.

"Little San!"

"Brother!"

While speaking, Tang San also fell to the ground, his body still bleeding constantly, and the Grim Reaper seemed to be beckoning to Tang San again.
