If possible, Skinny Monkey wanted to squeeze his entire body into the crack in the corner of the wall.

Terror on his face, he stared at the wide-open doors of the ruined temple, praying over and over that he would not encounter that man.

Unfortunately, no one heeded his prayers. Accompanied by heavy footsteps,

the man he least wanted to see appeared in his sight, making his face turn ashen on the spot!

"They've all gone down to keep Kai'er company. Why aren't you joining them?"

Guo Xiong's bloodshot eyes locked tightly onto Skinny Monkey, who was cowering in the corner, while his heavy footsteps approached step by step.

Pitch-black Soul Power surged from his body, and the phantom of a massive bear flickered behind him.

Five Spirit Rings—white, yellow, yellow, purple, purple—appeared around Guo Xiong's burly body, bobbing up and down in an extremely steady rhythm.

As his Martial Soul manifested, fine black fur as dense as needles sprouted from Guo Xiong's pores, instantly covering his entire body.

His teeth lengthened and sharpened, while his mouth protruded.

His already burly body swelled several times larger, even bursting straight through his clothes.

"Roar!"

Invisible sound waves mixed with foul-smelling saliva burst from Guo Xiong's mouth, frightening Skinny Monkey so badly that he lost control of his bowels and bladder. Filth instantly soaked his clothes, giving off a nauseating stench.

"Old Master Guo! Grandpa Guo! It wasn't my fault, it wasn't my fault!"

"It was Lin Du who crippled Young Master Guo Kai! You should take revenge on him!"

Skinny Monkey screamed and wept bitterly, trying to make Guo Xiong spare his life.

But the only answer he received was Guo Xiong's enormous bear paw, gleaming with Cold Light.

There was no need to say what would happen when an ordinary person who could not even awaken a Martial Soul faced an attack from a five-ring Soul King.

With a wet "Pffft," the sound of sharp claws tearing through flesh rang out.

Skinny Monkey's pleas stopped abruptly in that instant.

His eyes widened. In his final moments, he seemed to recall the day of his Martial Soul awakening once more.

"Young Master Guo, look at Lin Du, he..."

The blood gushing from his mouth clogged his nostrils. Amid his endlessly surging remorse,

Skinny Monkey met the end of his life, just like those who had once mocked Lin Du.

Yet ironically, they had escaped death at Lin Du's hands, only to fail to escape death at the hands of the man they had previously served.

"Only one person remains, Kai'er. Just wait a little longer. Your father will soon send Lin Du, the true culprit, down as well!"

"Roar!"

Guo Xiong howled at the sky and flung away Skinny Monkey, whom he had pierced clean through, like a rag doll.

At the same time, the aura of Soul Power around his body actually began to rise slowly.

At a certain moment, it rose from level 59 to level 60.

As long as he obtained one more Spirit Ring, he would advance from a Soul King to a Spirit Emperor!

"To break through at a time like this?! Good, good, good! Even the heavens are helping me!"

"Lin Du, you're dead!"

A hint of excitement appeared on Guo Xiong's savage face. His pitch-black Soul Power continuously fused with the hatred surrounding him, making him resemble a vicious ghost ready to devour anyone in his path!

The next day,

Yan, having adjusted himself to peak condition, sought out Hu Liena and Xie Yue early in the morning.

He urged them to hurry with him to Spirit Beast Hall to obtain their Second Spirit Rings. He could no longer wait to challenge Lin Du.

Understanding his urgency, the two did not say much and directly followed Yan to Spirit Beast Hall.

"Saintess, Young Master Yan, Young Master Xie Yue."

Since Yan and Xie Yue held no official positions in Spirit Hall, Gabriel, the person in charge of Spirit Beast Hall, addressed only Hu Liena by her title. Still, he observed every proper courtesy and bowed to all three.

"Mhm. The three of us wish to obtain our Second Spirit Rings at Spirit Beast Hall. Do you have any suitable Spirit Rings around eight hundred years?"

Hu Liena gave a slight nod and stated their needs to Gabriel.

"Yes, Saintess. Spirit Hall recently captured a batch of Hundred Year Spirit Beasts. I'll take the three of you to have a look."

Upon hearing Hu Liena's request, Gabriel immediately led the three of them into Spirit Beast Hall.

Though it was called Spirit Beast Hall, the place could not really be considered a palace. It was more like a large zoo.

It housed many Hundred Year and even Thousand Year Spirit Beasts, specifically for Spirit Hall members to absorb Spirit Rings from.

Of course, it was limited to Spirit Masters below the Soul Ancestor rank. After all, raising Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts was far too troublesome.

Even Spirit Hall could not manage to keep Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts in captivity.

"This is a Magnet Beast. It possesses the ability to manipulate metal."

"It is roughly eight hundred years old. Do any of you fancy it?"

Gabriel, the person in charge of Spirit Beast Hall, turned to the three of them, his voice carrying a hint of inquiry.

"I'll take it. My Martial Soul is the Moon Blade, which is metal itself. If I absorb this Spirit Beast's Spirit Ring,"

"it should raise my control over the Moon Blade to another level."

Looking at the oddly shaped Magnet Beast inside the cage, Xie Yue showed a hint of interest.

"No problem."

Gabriel smiled and nodded, then cast a glance at the guard watching over the enclosure.

After the guard nodded lightly, he immediately unleashed his Soul Power.

Four Spirit Rings—yellow, yellow, yellow, purple—floated around him, while the phantom of a Black Panther appeared behind his back.

He then suddenly slashed a claw at the Magnet Beast. Accompanied by a strangely pitched, mournful cry,

the Magnet Beast Xie Yue had chosen collapsed onto the ground, barely clinging to life.

Hu Liena and the others were clearly accustomed to such scenes. Xie Yue immediately summoned his Moon Blade Martial Soul.

They were two blood-red crescent-shaped blades.

With the Moon Blades in hand, he struck and ended the Magnet Beast's life completely.

Amid the blood, yellow points of light rose from the Magnet Beast's corpse.

They eventually formed a bright yellow Spirit Ring above its body.

Unlike an ordinary Hundred Year Spirit Ring, this eight-hundred-year Spirit Ring held a trace of purple hue.

Though it was only a faint wisp, it still displayed its extraordinary nature.

"You two don't need to wait for me. Go find Spirit Rings suitable for yourselves."

After leaving those words behind, Xie Yue released his Soul Power to draw in the Hundred Year Spirit Ring tinged with purple. He soon entered the absorption stage.

Before long, Hu Liena also found a Spirit Beast she liked.

It was a Moon-Worshipping Demonic Fox that was likewise around eight hundred years old, making it an excellent match for Hu Liena's Martial Soul.

"Young Master Yan, if we go any farther, we'll reach the Thousand Year Spirit Beast area. With your current Soul Power, you simply cannot absorb a Spirit Beast of that age."

Gabriel led Yan through the entire Hundred Year Spirit Beast area, but Yan still had not found a Spirit Beast he liked.

"I know I can't absorb a Thousand Year Spirit Ring either, but there isn't a single Spirit Beast suitable for me among these Hundred Year Spirit Rings. What do you expect me to do?"
