As the people from Shrek Academy walked along the road out of the Star Dou Great Forest,
an invisible Snorkel Zombie handed him a Soul Bone that looked as though it had been formed from eight spider legs.

Ye Fan had determined that the Eight Spider Lances were either inside Meng Yiran's body or inside the Man Faced Demon Spider's body.
Only Meng Yiran, who could absorb the Soul Ring, could have dropped the Soul Bone.
In the original plot, Tang San had only managed to absorb that two-thousand-year-old Man Faced Demon Spider because of his protagonist halo.
Without a protagonist halo, Meng Yiran had only one possible outcome from trying to absorb it: death.
Only two people present knew its exact age.

The other was Ye Fan, who could learn its exact age through the system.
Plot alteration successful. Tang San did not obtain the Man Faced Demon Spider's Soul Ring. Reward: three thousand years of freely allocated age.
Ye Fan now had five thousand years of freely allocated age in hand.
However, this was clearly not a good time to use it.
If he allocated it when he was just one step away from a major breakthrough, its effects would be far greater.
