Same Here
While Dugu Yan was absorbing the Soul Ring, Tang San walked to the corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, squatted down, and began to examine it.
Logically, such a top-tier Soul Beast should possess Soul Bone.
Unless the Soul Master who kills it has extremely bad luck.
Soon, Tang San discovered a well-preserved left arm bone on the left foreleg of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
He carefully removed the Soul Bone from the corpse; the Soul Bone was dark purple.
Tang San washed the blood off the Soul Bone and then stored it in his Storage Soul Tool.
On the other side, Xiao Wu started chatting with Da Ming and Er Ming.
Xiao Wu walked up to Da Ming, looked up at the huge bull's head, her eyes full of concern.
"Da Ming, how did you end up fighting with the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?"
Da Ming reluctantly explained the reason.
Essentially, it's still a "territorial battle".
This Dark Demon Evil God Tiger is an extremely domineering intruder, and its way of growing stronger is by devouring other Soul Beasts.
After its recent surge in power, it desires to occupy the Lake of Life, the core of the Star Dou Great Forest, as its territory.
As the Da Ming of the Forest Lake of Life territory, the two sides are bound to clash.
Tang San remembered that if they hadn't appeared, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger would probably have been driven away by Da Ming Er Ming.
Then, after Da Ming Er Ming sacrificed themselves for Tang San, it returned to the Star Dou Great Forest.
This was really a lucky coincidence.
After Tang San finished dealing with the corpse of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, he walked to Xiao Wu's side, waved to Da Ming and Er Ming as a greeting.
"Tang San, you've gotten so much stronger again!"
After sensing Tang San's aura, Da Ming said in surprise.
Xiao Wu smiled, her eyes filled with pride. "Of course! Third Brother is destined to become a god!"
Da Ming's pupils contracted slightly.
"Become a god?"
Xiao Wu nodded, her tone full of admiration and pride. "Third Brother has passed the Godhood Inheritance test. He is the one chosen by the gods."
Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
"Congratulations." Da Ming's voice was low, carrying a hint of complex emotion.
Er Ming also came over. "Sister Xiao Wu, what about you? What are you going to do?"
Upon hearing this, Tang San immediately spoke up.
"Don't worry, senior. Even if Xiao Wu can't become a god, I will still bring her to the Divine Realm under the guise of family."
Da Ming nodded, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.
"That's good. We're at ease knowing you're with him."
Er Ming nodded, then extended his mountain-sized fist and gently touched Xiao Wu's pink fist.
"Sister Xiao Wu, when you go to the Divine Realm, don't forget us."
Xiao Wu's eyes reddened slightly, and she nodded vigorously. "No. I will never forget you all."
Then, she turned to Tang San and asked pleadingly, "Third Brother, is there any way to bring Da Ming Er Ming along?"
Da Ming immediately interrupted, "Xiao Wu, don't make things difficult for Tang San. We're already very grateful that he took you with him."
It paused, then continued, "Moreover, we Soul Beasts cannot become gods. This is a rule of heaven and earth, and no one can change it."
At this moment, Tang San recalled that in the original novel, Da Ming and Er Ming sacrificed themselves to Tang San, becoming his Soul Rings and Soul Bones.
Later in the Divine Realm, they were resurrected, became beings of the Divine Realm, and were assigned to the Clear Sky Sect as guardians.
He looked at Xiao Wu's expectant gaze, remained silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"I do know a method, but I don't know if you two would be willing to try it?"
Before Da Ming could answer, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up, and she asked eagerly, "Really, Third Brother? What method is it?"
Da Ming and Er Ming also looked at Tang San, their four huge eyes filled with doubt and anticipation.
Tang San took a deep breath and slowly opened his mouth.
"If you Soul Sacrifice and leave them in my Soul Rings, becoming my Soul Rings, then when we reach the Divine Realm, I will use divine power to resurrect you, and you will become beings of the Divine Realm."
Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged a glance, then simultaneously looked at Tang San.
"Are you serious?"
Tang San nodded. "It's true, but..."
"Just what?"
"My Divine Examination is fraught with peril and will likely be extremely difficult. I cannot guarantee whether I will ultimately succeed."
After Tang San finished speaking, he gave a helpless, bitter smile.
Da Ming remained silent for a moment, his eyes gleaming as if he were deep in thought.
Then it nodded.
"If... if that day ever comes, I hope I can sacrifice myself for you and become your Soul Ring."
The Titan Giant Ape nodded heavily, pounding its massive fist twice on its chest.
Me too!
Tang San was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly.
"Let's talk about that later. I promise you, if that day ever comes, I'll come back to you."
Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged a glance, then said, "Alright, we'll wait for that day to come."
On the other side, Dugu Yan's body was enduring the impact of that energy and adapting to it.
Eight Spider Lances unfolded behind him, the blood- Spider Spears trembling slightly as they frantically devoured the excess energy in the Soul Rings, converting the superfluous and violent energy into their own.
This process lasted for about three and a half hours.
As the last wisp of Soul Ring energy merged into Dugu Yan's body, the black light gradually subsided.
Seven Soul Rings rose from beneath Dugu Yan's feet: two yellow, two purple, and three black.
Dugu Yan opened her eyes, her aura was much stronger than before, and her Soul Power fluctuations were much more profound.
"How is it?" Tang San asked anxiously.
"Soul Power Level 72."
Her voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.
"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar. Upon activation, all attributes are increased by 200%. In True Form state, the power of all my skills is doubled."
"Furthermore, the attributes of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger have perfectly fused with the Eight Spider Lances, more than doubling the strength and devouring efficiency of the Eight Spider Lances. The Eight Spider Lances are now probably over 50,000 years old."
Tang San nodded, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
He took out the Evil God Pearl from his Storage Soul Tool and held it in his palm.
"This bead is called the Evil God Pearl."
Tang San remembered that the Evil God (also known as the God of Destruction) was First-Level God under the Evil God King, who perished in the ancient Dragon God War.
His innate Evil God power was sealed in this bead and possessed a White Tiger, causing the White Tiger to mutate into the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
Tang San's voice was solemn. "Yan Yan, if you can devour and refine this Evil God Pearl, you may gain the approval of the Evil God, and even pass the Evil God Divine Examination."
Dugu Yan's eyes lit up, the black bead reflected in her purple pupils.
How to devour it?
Her voice trembled slightly, carrying a hint of barely suppressed excitement.
Tang San handed the Evil God Pearl to her. "Swallow it. Then use your Soul Power to guide it and fuse it with your body. But..."
He paused, his gaze becoming serious.
"The Evil God Pearl contains extremely evil energy, requiring powerful Spiritual Power to resist evil thoughts. A slight mishap, and if one is consumed by the evil thoughts, one might become a puppet of those evil thoughts, losing self-awareness and turning into a monster that only knows how to kill and devour."
Are you really willing to take this risk?
Dugu Yan glanced around and saw the concerned looks in everyone's eyes.
She smiled and said, "I have the powerful Spiritual Power provided by my 60,000-year -Head Soul Bone, and we've supported each other through countless hardships and trials over the past few years. What can a few evil thoughts do to me?"
Dugu Yan stared intently at the Evil God Pearl in Tang San's hand.
"Abilities themselves are neither good nor evil; it is only the person who wields the ability who is good or evil. I believe I can master it."
