Seven Rings, Two Hundred and Twenty Thousand Years.

For Qin Tian, a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring posed no pressure at all. For others, even a quasi-Title Douluo absorbing a hundred-thousand-year ring for their ninth spirit ring would have to be extremely cautious, fearing that a single slip could cause their body to explode and lead to death.

But Qin Tian was different; his sixth spirit ring already had an age of up to one hundred and fifty thousand years.

With the assistance of the Evil God King, Qin Tian had undergone a massive transformation. The corpses of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings had become the resources for his cultivation, and their spirit rings, spirit bones, and dragon cores had all served to perfect him.

These were originally prepared by the Asura God King for his own successor, but now, they had all benefited Qin Tian.

The Water and Fire Dragon Kings were peak first-class gods, and their strength was such that they were considered formidable figures even within the God Realm.

Even though they were dead, the vast energy contained within their remains was enough to allow Qin Tian to undergo a complete metamorphosis.

Coupled with the fact that his physique had been tempered immensely while absorbing his sixth spirit ring, the reinforcement his body received from that ring was also significant.

A hundred-thousand-year spirit ring might be the limit for others, but for Qin Tian, it was far from reaching his own limit.

Feeling the majestic spirit power within the spirit ring, Qin Tian felt no pressure at all, and his heart remained steady.

Without further hesitation, he immediately increased the rate of his spirit power absorption. As he rapidly refined the spirit power, the age of the spirit ring continued to climb.

One hundred and ten thousand years, one hundred and twenty thousand years, one hundred and thirty thousand years, one hundred and forty thousand years, one hundred and fifty thousand years.

Several hours later, the spirit ring's age had reached one hundred and fifty thousand years, matching the age of his sixth spirit ring.

The hundred-and-fifty-thousand-year spirit ring was as bright as blood, a deep, profound red.

At this moment, Qin Tian felt a slight amount of pressure, but it only caused him to frown slightly.

"One hundred and fifty thousand years. It seems that after absorbing the sixth spirit ring, my physique has been greatly enhanced. I fear the age of my seventh spirit ring will exceed my expectations."

Qin Tian's previous prediction was that his seventh spirit ring's age should be about the same as his sixth; even if it exceeded it slightly, it should only be sixteen or seventeen thousand years. But now, it appeared to be different.

He did not know that after absorbing his sixth spirit ring, not only had his physique improved, but his two god-level external spirit bones had been further unleashed, strengthening his body. Furthermore, while he was absorbing the sixth ring, the dragon pearls of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings had been continuously releasing energy, reinforcing his physique.

With these many factors combined, his physique had improved tremendously. Now, his body was so strong that seventeen thousand years—no, even eighteen thousand years—was not a problem.

Qin Tian no longer held back, continuing to increase his absorption and refining the massive spirit power of the ring.

One hundred and sixty thousand years, one hundred and seventy thousand years, one hundred and eighty thousand years.

When the spirit ring's age reached one hundred and eighty thousand years, he felt a terrifying pressure that made his heart palpitate.

"Hoo!"

"One hundred and eighty thousand years. Far from enough."

Enduring the immense pressure, Qin Tian knew this was not his limit. He had experienced this while absorbing his sixth spirit ring, and he knew he could push further.

Above in the God Realm, the Evil God King watched this scene, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Not bad, not bad. As the successor of this God King, how could one be afraid at a time like this?"

"Only by breaking boundaries and surpassing limits can one lay the foundation for the next breakthrough."

The Evil God King was very satisfied with the successor he had chosen, and he highly approved of Qin Tian's approach.

Just as when Qin Tian absorbed his sixth spirit ring, even if his bones shattered and his meridians were damaged, he would not stop until he reached his absolute limit.

As time passed, Qin Tian was now a bloody mess, his entire body soaked in gore.

The spirit ring above his head had also undergone a massive change; a golden streak had appeared upon it.

A golden streak represented its age, and now that a golden streak had appeared on the ring, it meant its age had reached two hundred thousand years.

"It's not enough. I've reached my limit."

Qin Tian felt his own body—shattered meridians, broken bones, flesh already...

Qin Tian ended the absorption. As he stopped, the spirit ring ceased to grow in age and settled firmly onto his martial soul.

Once the spirit ring was set upon the martial soul, it released a vast amount of energy, which began to repair Qin Tian's damaged body.

Under this immense energy, in just a few breaths, his shattered bones began to mend, his broken meridians reconnected, and his flesh was restored.

"Hoo! Hoo! Hoo!"

Qin Tian's forehead was covered in sweat. The pain was not something an ordinary person could endure; if his willpower had not been far beyond the average person and his temperament so resilient, he would have collapsed long ago.

"Hahaha!"

"Not bad, not bad. Two hundred and twenty thousand years! Two hundred and twenty thousand years! My seventh spirit ring is two hundred and twenty thousand years old. Who in this world can compare to me?"

"A fifteen-thousand-year sixth ring and a twenty-two-thousand-year seventh ring—I ask you, who else is there?"

Feeling the massive power within his body, Qin Tian's face was filled with arrogance.

After absorbing the seventh spirit ring, he finally felt where his spirit power had reached.

Level 78. By absorbing the sixth and seventh spirit rings in succession, combined with his two god rings and two god-level external spirit bones, his spirit power had jumped directly to level 78.

Although he had reached level 60 early on and had absorbed a celestial herb, the energy from that herb was estimated to only provide him with two or three levels of spirit power.

The spirit power of a Spirit Emperor was not comparable to that of a Spirit Grandmaster or Spirit Ancestor. Furthermore, the purity and density of Qin Tian's spirit power far exceeded that of others; for him to increase by one level was equivalent to others increasing by three or four.

"A level 78 Spirit Saint at twelve years old. A level 78 Spirit Saint! Heh heh heh, with my current achievements, I am unprecedented and will likely remain so—the only one of my kind."

"If Sister Xue finds out, I wonder what she will..."

Qin Tian thought to himself, wondering what kind of expression Qian Renxue would have if she knew his current level of spirit power.

Once he met Qian Renxue and revealed his sixth and seventh soul rings, he feared even she would be green with envy.

And as for his second martial soul, those two golden divine rings, Qian Renxue would likely be...

Qin Tian dared not continue that train of thought, taking deep breaths to steady his emotions before looking around, his eyes filled with a calculating gaze.

This place was the burial ground of the Water and Fire Dragon Kings, and the density of the energy here far exceeded the outside world, so Qin Tian immediately began his search.

"Dragon Blood Grass, Dragon Blood Fruit, Nine-Turn Dragon Blood Tree..."

"Dragon Blood Crystal, Dragon Source Stone, Blood Dragon Essence Crystal..."

Qin Tian dug three feet deep, pocketing a vast array of immortal herbs and minerals.

The Water and Fire Dragon Kings had been dead for many years, and the energy they dissipated had completely transformed this place; anything stained by their dragon blood had turned into top-tier materials.

After Qin Tian finished his search, he headed out of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, feeling immensely satisfied.

The Evil God King watched this scene, the corners of his mouth twitching uncontrollably.

"This successor of mine is truly... Asura has really taken a loss this time..."
