Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine

"Also, Xiao Huang, what about your Soul Skill? Let me see it," Tang Hao said.

Chen Huang smiled and gripped the dagger in his right hand. He directly cut a bloody gash across his left hand, then shouted softly, "First Soul Skill! Regeneration!"

Soul Power flowed into his hand, and a faint green glow appeared over the wound. Before long, the cut gradually faded away and finally disappeared.

"I can use Soul Power to heal my own injuries. If I don't have enough Soul Power, it will consume my life force."

Tang Hao's eyes widened. "How much does it consume?"

Chen Huang held up his hands and crossed his index fingers into a cross. "For a cut like this, I can regenerate ten times." His current Soul Power Level was not high, and he did not have much Soul Power. Once his Soul Power Level rose in the future, he feared that even if his entire body were crippled, he could instantly recover as long as he had enough Soul Power.

Tang Hao said calmly, "A very good Soul Skill. But it seems somewhat similar to the Self-Created Soul Skill you learned yourself."

Chen Huang smiled. "No, this Soul Skill consumes far less. However, it can only be used on myself. The advantage of Mystical Palm is that it can also be used on others. Besides, this Spirit Ring has given me a considerable amount of life force. I feel that the effects of my Mystical Palm can be strengthened quite a bit as well."

Xiao Shan had originally wanted to learn Mystical Palm herself, but later discovered that perhaps because Mystical Palm belonged to the Yang Release category, she simply could not learn it no matter what. On the other hand, she had learned the Monster Strength Technique long ago. She just did not seem to like it very much. Maybe she felt that it was not very suitable for a girl to use the Monster Strength Technique. She was not particularly interested in the Clear Sky Hammer either.

The three of them did not linger there for long. They still had to find a suitable Spirit Ring for Xiao Shan.

Within the Star Dou Great Forest, there were quite a few Plant Soul Beasts. Beast-type Soul Beasts could be divided into dragons, tigers, dogs, and so on, but plant types were often lumped together as one category.

After walking only a few steps, they could spot a fairly impressive Plant Soul Beast. But suitable Soul Skills were incredibly hard to come by. Tang San's Third Soul Skill, Spider Web Restraint, came from a two-thousand-year-old Man Faced Demon Spider. It was a restrictive Soul Skill that could target either one person or a group. It could also be regarded as an area-wide control skill. In any case, it could catch everything in one net.

Setting aside the compatibility between Martial Soul and Spirit Ring, the effect of this Soul Skill was truly excellent. However, it was the kind with a very high floor and a very low ceiling. It was powerful early on but weak later. As people often said, it became a useless Soul Skill in the later stages.

Chen Huang and Xiao Shan had long discussed which Soul Beast would be most suitable for her third Spirit Ring. There were plenty of plant types that enhanced toughness. But ones with suitable Soul Skills were extremely rare.

Since Xiao Shan already had a Binding Soul Skill, there was no need to get another similar one. Following that line of thought, the Soul Skills after this would not be easy to choose either.

Binding was ultimately a single-target control Soul Skill. Although it could achieve group control when paired with Parasitism, it was still not quite enough. Therefore, she would need another group control skill later on. The remaining choices could be assault-type Soul Skills that increased toughness, resistance, and hardness.

After all, the development path set for Xiao Shan was originally to transition through the Control System. Once her Soul Power Level became high enough, the Assault System would make better use of her powerful Martial Soul and talent.

So this Third Soul Skill could be chosen a little more freely.

After searching around this area for two hours, they finally found a suitable Plant Soul Beast.

"Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine!" Chen Huang cried out.

It was a vine, also known as a Thorn Blood Vine.

As its name implied, the vine was covered in thorns and painfully prickly to the touch. It would tightly coil around its prey, then pierce its skin with its thorns and suck its blood. And it did not feed slowly, either. Suppose a prey animal had one hundred liters of blood in its body. Once caught by it, half an hour later, all that would remain was a dried corpse.

The useless dried corpse would eventually be tossed somewhere far away by the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine, so it would not interfere with its hunting.

Having drunk its fill of blood day after day, the vine itself had taken on a dark crimson color.

"There's a high chance it can provide Xiao Shan with a control-type Soul Skill. It should also be bloodsucking in nature." This did count as a Control System skill, since massive blood loss would make a person extremely weak.

After counting the vines, Chen Huang added, "After reaching a thousand years, it grows one offspring vine for every additional hundred years. There are six vines in total, so it's sixteen hundred years old. That age is just right for Xiao Shan."

Xiao Shan glanced at Chen Huang, and he smiled.

Xiao Shan actually felt an impulse in her heart. Seeing Xiao Huang absorb a Fifteen Hundred Year Spirit Ring, should she also try one beyond her limit? But her physical condition was about the same as Xiao Huang's, so an age close to the limit was enough. It was the most suitable choice for her.

She looked at Tang Hao and said softly, "Dad, but I want to find one with a slightly higher age." She knew that Soul Beasts with both a suitable age and a suitable Soul Skill were far too difficult to find.

Tang Hao looked at his daughter as if he knew what she was thinking. He rubbed her head and said, "All right. How about Dad accompanies you to find one that's more suitable?"

Chen Huang had long grown used to it. Tang Hao... sigh, I have no particular thoughts about it. I just feel sorry for Tang San.

Xiao Shan herself was momentarily speechless. The final choice was still hers. In truth, she simply had not thought it through properly.

Chen Huang suddenly remembered that they had brought along the corpse of that Cat-headed Dog.

"Teacher, how about feeding this to the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine and seeing what happens?" Chen Huang took out the Cat-headed Dog's corpse and asked.

A sharp glint flashed through Tang Hao's eyes as well. It could work.

After thinking for a while, he hesitated again. "But this is a Fifteen Hundred Year Cat-headed Dog. What if the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine's age becomes too high afterward?"

Chen Huang smiled. "Teacher, not necessarily. Although it is indeed a Fifteen Hundred Year Cat-headed Dog, its life force has already been almost completely depleted. In reality, it cannot provide the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine with much nourishment."

Hearing this, Xiao Shan's face lit up with joy. "Dad, let's try it. If its age becomes too high, we'll look for something else."

"All right, then let's give it a try." Seeing that his daughter had already made up her mind, Tang Hao chose to support her.

With one arm, he grabbed the Cat-headed Dog's corpse and threw it toward a dark crimson vine in the distance.

The Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine was remarkably capable at hunting. The moment the Cat-headed Dog's corpse hit the ground, its dark crimson vines lashed out and coiled around it. Its sharp thorns pierced into the Cat-headed Dog's body, then wrapped it up tightly.

Although the Cat-headed Dog had already been dead for quite some time, the Bloodthirsty Demonic Vine was not picky at all. Perhaps that was the nature of some plants: absorbing nutrients in order to grow strong and flourish.

It was like farmers spreading manure in their fields. Have you ever seen vegetables in a field turn picky about food? Even manure smelled great to them. Who would have thought Wang Jingze's "so good" line applied here too? Though it was a little nauseating.

Sharpness is not exclusive to swords.

Tang Shan had cultivated for more than twenty years, supporting one another all the way with her childhood sweetheart, Xiao Huang.

At last, she reached the realm of a Titled Douluo.

Xiao Huang often said, "Even if you become a god, you're still exceptional to me. I believe in you. You are the best. There is no one better."

Her title was rather ordinary, neither pleasant-sounding nor imposing.

Blue Silver Douluo. Didn't that sound a little off?

Xiao Huang's title, on the other hand, was Undying Douluo. He had named it himself.

Heh, it's even worse than mine.

She and Xiao Huang both reached the realm of Titled Douluo, openly displaying nine Spirit Rings all the way: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, red, red, red. Meanwhile, Xiao Huang at her side had purple, purple, black, black, red, red, red, red, red—nine Spirit Rings in total. They walked through the streets of Spirit City and arrived at Douluo Hall.

The Offerings of Douluo Hall, along with the Pontiff and the Ghost Chrysanthemum Duo, all stood guard in front of Douluo Hall as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Who are you? How dare you come to Spirit City seeking trouble!" Bibi Dong shouted coldly.

Xiao Huang smiled. "Relax. We've just broken through to become Titled Douluo. We came this time to enter Douluo Hall."

The Offerings were stunned for a moment. So they were newly advanced Titled Douluo. So young—no wonder they were so flamboyant. They were young, after all.

Qian Daoliu cooperated with Tang Shan and Xiao Huang, hanging up their respective titles within Douluo Hall.

After leaving Douluo Hall.

Tang Shan smiled faintly. "Now that we're done with the important business, it's time to settle some personal matters. The former Pontiff, Qian Xunji, forced my mother to death. I came here for revenge!"

Tang Shan used the secret art of the Great Sumeru Hammer. She detonated three red Hundred Thousand Year rings. Holding the Blue Silver Emperor in her hand, she lashed out with a whip, splitting Spirit City in two.
