Soul Ring Restoration

"Your Spirit Bone is easy to deal with. I've kept this Spirit Bone all along. But your Soul Ring?" Tang Hao frowned. Ah Yin's Soul Ring had long since been absorbed by him. Was there really some way to separate it again?

"I naturally have a way. However, if this Soul Ring is stripped away, your cultivation will drop—directly to the level of an eighty-ninth-rank Soul Douluo, perhaps even lower. Are you willing?" Ah Yin asked with a frown.

"Of course I am. You gave it to me in the first place; returning it to you is only right. What's more, this concerns your life." Tang Hao spoke with deep affection.

As he spoke, he moved closer to Ah Yin. However, with every step Tang Hao took, Ah Yin retreated one step as well. The two maintained a safe distance the entire time, leaving Tang Hao somewhat disappointed.

Still, he knew this could not be rushed. Ah Yin had lost her memories, and she seemed to harbor an inexplicable hostility toward him. Without the emotional foundation they once had, winning Ah Yin's heart again would not be something he could accomplish overnight.

Even if Ah Yin now found him unfamiliar, he believed he could still win her love once more.

No one in this world knew Ah Yin better than he did. He knew all her preferences and habits. As long as he did more things according to Ah Yin's wishes, she would surely be moved someday.

And the most important thing now was to truly revive Ah Yin.

He did not care whether he would lose a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, nor did he care if his cultivation fell. As long as Ah Yin could return, he would willingly give up all his cultivation!

"Time is of the essence. Tomorrow, we'll transfer the Soul Ring. There are too many people here, and it isn't convenient. I'll give you the Spirit Bone first. Absorb it before anything else."

Tang Hao took out the box containing the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone. The moment the box was exposed to the air, as if it sensed Ah Yin's presence, it immediately began to rejoice, trembling without stop.

The instant the box opened, ripples spread through heaven and earth.

Inside the box was a strange bone.

Its entire body was a crystalline blue-gold, with tiny stars seemingly glittering within. This was Ah Yin's Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

Looking at the Right Leg Bone that continuously emitted blue radiance, Ah Yin smiled faintly. Bathed in that blue-gold halo, her smile was truly captivating enough to topple a city, and Tang Hao could not help staring blankly.

Seeing Ah Yin smile like a blooming flower, Tang Hao softened. His heart grew even more resolute as he swore that from this day onward, he would not allow anyone to hurt her again.

"Ah Yin, go absorb this Spirit Bone first. I'll stand guard for you," Tang Hao said.

"Alright." Ah Yin directly took the Spirit Bone into her hand, sat cross-legged, and held it in her right palm.

After several breaths, Ah Yin calmed down. At the same time, the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone slowly melted in her palm, turning into a pool of green liquid suspended in the air.

Then, Ah Yin pointed with her jade-like hand, guiding the Spirit Bone toward her right leg as it slowly fused with her body.

Immediately afterward, Ah Yin's aura surged rapidly.

Fifty-eighth rank,

Fifty-ninth rank,

Sixtieth rank.

Ah Yin's cultivation directly recovered to the threshold of Soul Emperor. To advance further, she would need a Soul Ring.

However, Ah Yin herself was a soul beast who had taken human form. Their Soul Rings could be obtained through self-division.

Sure enough, Ah Yin instantly released her Martial Soul. Dozens of delicate Blue Silver Grass blades wrapped around her body.

At the same time, five Soul Rings appeared around her—two yellow, two purple, and one black.

This state lasted for quite some time. Once Ah Yin's aura had completely stabilized, an even darker Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring emerged from her body.

At the same time, Ah Yin's aura surged once more, only stopping after she reached the sixty-fifth rank of Soul Emperor.

The Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone had originally fallen from Ah Yin's body, and now it had returned to its rightful owner. Ah Yin absorbed this Spirit Bone with great ease, needing only a little over an hour to complete the absorption.

After absorbing the Spirit Bone, Ah Yin's aura improved considerably. Her previously pale face had gained a hint of rosy color.

"Ah Yin, congratulations. Your strength has increased by quite a bit again, and your physical condition looks much better than before as well," Tang Hao said joyfully upon seeing Ah Yin successfully absorb the Spirit Bone.

"Mm. Now only the Soul Ring is missing." Ah Yin glanced at Tang Hao indifferently.

Tang Hao did not mind having his warmth met with coldness.

"Tomorrow, we'll go to Holy Soul Village. It's quiet there, and no one will disturb us. You can take back your Soul Ring there," Tang Hao said.

"Alright!" Only then did an indescribable excitement flash across Ah Yin's face. She had not expected Tang Hao to agree so readily to return her Soul Ring.

She had originally thought the task would be difficult to complete! Now, it seemed she would soon be able to finish the mission Young Master had assigned her.

Once Tang Hao had his Soul Ring stripped away and his strength plummeted, she would make him eat the thing Young Master had given her. Her mission would then be complete!

Moreover, by then, her strength would recover to that of a Soul Saint. With the power of a Soul Saint, she would be able to protect Young Master even better.

When Tang Hao saw Ah Yin suddenly become happy, he smiled along with her.

Tomorrow, I must set out early and help Ah Yin recover as soon as possible!

Thanks to Rapid Circumference for the 200 book coin reward, and Wind-Blown Oath for the 100 book coin reward.

Ahem, this chapter was a little short, so don't mind it. Once I'm discharged from the hospital today, I'll be able to write properly again.

In the next two chapters, Tang Hao will directly kick the bucket—no dragging things out! Then it'll be off to the Extreme North to obtain that Million-Year Soul Ring for showing off, before heading to Shrek to mess with Dai Mubai.
