The moment Chu Feng absorbs the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring will be her best opportunity to strike.

He is at his most vulnerable at this time.

The only obstacles to her move might be Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

However, they are nothing to fear.

Besides, they are in the light while she is in the dark; the advantage is hers!

Bibi Dong steadied her thoughts.

Her gaze returned to the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring slowly floating up from the waters of the Lake of Life.

It is truly a pity to lose this Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring, as she had originally intended it for her second martial soul.

If she had known earlier that Chu Feng would become such a grave threat, she should have acted sooner and dealt with him when he first began to show his brilliance.

Unfortunately, one wrong step leads to another, and now it is all too late.

All she can do now is correct the course, set things right, and bring everything back on track.

Although the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring is gone, the Spirit Bone will still be hers in the end.

Chu Feng also possesses several Spirit Bones on his person, which can be considered compensation for this Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.

Furthermore, with two level-95 Title Douluo and one level-90 Title Douluo, if she uses her second martial soul to devour all their spirit power, her own strength will improve significantly.

Chu Feng does not yet know that he has been targeted by a venomous snake hiding in the shadows.

Bibi Dong intends to strike at him while he is busy absorbing the spirit ring.

Chu Feng is completely unaware that danger is descending and that he is about to face a catastrophe.

Chu Feng stared at the center of the Lake of Life, his gaze piercing through the water to look at the bottom of the lake.

The pure energy within the Azure Bull Python was compressed from the outside in, condensed within its body, and finally formed into a red spirit ring and a cyan-colored right arm Spirit Bone.

The spirit ring and Spirit Bone drifted slowly from the body of the Azure Bull Python, floating toward the surface of the lake and emerging from the Lake of Life; the massive spirit ring shone brightly above the water.

When the spirit ring and Spirit Bone dropped by the Azure Bull Python appeared, they were imbued with a trace of life force due to the Gold of Life at the bottom of the lake.

Chu Feng reached out and took the Azure Bull Python right arm Spirit Bone into his hand.

Immediately, his gaze turned to the Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring slowly rotating above the lake.

This spirit ring had grown to an incredibly massive size; as it floated above the lake, its span directly covered the entire Lake of Life.

A brilliant red light emanated from the spirit ring, bathing the Lake of Life below in a crimson glow.

As the spirit ring rotated slowly, a faint trace of dragon might leaked from it.

This dragon might was formed from the trace of Azure Dragon Bloodline within the Azure Bull Python; when equipping the spirit ring, a Spirit Master has a certain chance to obtain this trace of Azure Dragon Bloodline.

"This is the spirit ring dropped by the Forest Emperor; the energy it contains is truly powerful.

It feels like it has far exceeded the standard of an ordinary hundred-thousand-year spirit beast!"

Perhaps even a million-year spirit ring would be no more than this, right?

Chrysanthemum Douluo sighed deeply as he gazed at the spirit ring; he had seen many hundred-thousand-year spirit rings in his life.

But this was the first time he had ever seen a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring like this one.

The spirit ring before him was shockingly large, occupying the entire space above the Lake of Life.

Beside him, Ghost Douluo looked up in equal shock, his eyes fixed on the spirit ring.

This spirit ring was the largest he had ever seen to date.

Without exception!

But aren't the sizes of spirit rings fixed? Why is this one so large!

Ghost Douluo could not fathom it.

However, considering this was a spirit ring precipitated by the Forest Emperor—the Azure Bull Python was the emperor of the spirit beasts in the Star Dou Forest, blessed with the fortune of the spirit beast clan and possessing the Azure Dragon Bloodline of the dragon race—it was only natural that it would be a bit larger.

But being this large, how was Chu Feng supposed to absorb it and compress it to the size of a normal spirit ring?

The contrast in size between Chu Feng and the ring was like that of an ant before an elephant.

"Chu Feng, this spirit ring is a bit special; it contains a vast aura of life and a faint trace of dragon might."

"Normal spirit rings don't have these!" Chrysanthemum Douluo continued after Ghost Douluo: "And the surface area of this spirit ring has far exceeded the scope of a normal spirit ring!"

Prompted by Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, Chu Feng suddenly felt that the spirit ring dropped by the Azure Bull Python was indeed shockingly large.

The aura upon it was strange.

Spirit rings are formed from the source energy of a spirit beast after its death, shaped by the laws of heaven and earth.

Logically, it should not possess something as distinct as dragon might.

With this spirit ring being so bizarre, could it be...

Chu Feng suddenly thought of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King.

In the original work, after the Deep Sea Demon Whale King was hunted by Tang San, he left behind a contingency plan, preserving his soul within his Spirit Ring.

Later, through this contingency, he attempted to possess Tang San during his nine trials to become a god, hoping to replace him and become the new Sea God.

Could the Azure Bull Python be planning the same thing?

However, the moment this thought emerged, Chu Feng immediately dismissed it.

There was absolutely no possibility of that.

Setting aside whether the Azure Bull Python even possessed such methods, if it did, why would it have sacrificed itself to Tang San in the original story?

It could have simply let itself be hunted by Bibi Dong and hidden its soul within the Spirit Ring.

Wouldn't it have been better to wait for her to absorb the ring and then seize the opportunity to possess her?

Furthermore, the spear strike Chu Feng had just unleashed did not merely attack the physical body of the Azure Bull Python; it had struck the soul of his opponent as well.

The death of the Azure Bull Python was, in reality, the dual annihilation of both its physical vitality and its soul.

Otherwise, why would such a dignified overlord of the forest have died so easily?

Chu Feng pondered for a moment, his gaze falling upon the Lake of Life.

The reason for this outcome might perhaps be the Gold of Life beneath the surface.

The Gold of Life is a miraculous substance, possessing an incredibly vast amount of life energy.

The life energy on this Spirit Ring must be the energy from the Gold of Life.

As for the dragon might within it, that should also be an effect of the Gold of Life, which caused the Azure Dragon Bloodline within the Azure Bull Python to be refined into the Spirit Ring.

As for why this Spirit Ring was so large, the explanation Chu Feng arrived at was also the influence of the Gold of Life.

It must be that the life energy of the Gold of Life magnified the Spirit Ring, storing more of the Azure Bull Python's origin energy within it.

Thinking of this, Chu Feng felt completely at ease about absorbing the Spirit Ring.

The vast amount of life energy contained within the Spirit Ring was a good thing for Chu Feng.

With life energy to safeguard him, the danger of him absorbing the Spirit Ring would drop sharply.

He might even be able to use this to obtain a ninth spirit skill with the attribute of endless vitality.

"I am going to absorb the Spirit Ring; please protect me, Elders!"

After Chu Feng asked Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to protect him, he immediately crossed his legs, sat down, closed his eyes, and began to absorb the Spirit Ring.

The moment his eyes closed, Chu Feng instantly entered a state of selflessness.

Following that, a black spear manifested behind his back.

"Hehehe~!"

But just as Chu Feng entered the state of "selflessness," a murderous intent suddenly permeated the air, and a terrifying killing intent locked onto him.

A ghostly figure appeared out of thin air, rapidly closing in on Chu Feng.
