Multiple Directions for Choosing the First Spirit Ring

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Apprenticed to a Title Douluo?

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: You're not lying to us, are you?

Liu Erlong could hardly believe her eyes.

What kind of existence was a Title Douluo?

They were the pinnacle of combat power on the Douluo Continent.

How could he just happen to meet one, and even become her disciple?

A-Qing's Master?

Ah Yin felt doubt and concern rising in her heart.

She had a feeling things were not that simple.

Several pale green blades of grass suddenly slipped out from Lin Qingmo's pant leg.

They were branches Ah Yin had extended to investigate the outside world.

They crawled out along the clothes at Lin Qingmo's waist.

Quietly observing the Black-Robed Woman not far away.

"A familiar... feeling..."

When her branches sensed that familiar yet terrifying aura from Bibi Dong.

That aura... that aura was... her!

Ah Yin's branches suddenly trembled violently.

She recognized Eastern Emperor through her aura. She was Bibi Dong, the one who had once hunted her down!

It's her!

Why was she here?

Why had she taken A-Qing as her disciple?

"Hmm?"

Bibi Dong's gaze turned toward Ah Yin.

"!!!"

Ah Yin was instantly scared out of her wits!

She hurriedly withdrew her branches.

Then anxiously sent a message in the Chat Group.

[Green Green Grass]: A-Qing... danger... get away from her...

[Daddy Douluo]: Grass Mom? What danger are you talking about? Are you saying my Master, Sister Eastern Emperor, is in danger?

Lin Qingmo completely failed to understand what Ah Yin meant.

His Master was a Title Douluo. How could she be in danger so easily?

[Green Green Grass]: She... she is dangerous...

Ah Yin's voice was clearly trembling.

She did not dare directly reveal Bibi Dong's identity.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Are you sure she's a Title Douluo and not some kind of fraud? A-Qing, don't let yourself get tricked.

Liu Erlong grew wary as well.

After all, a Title Douluo taking on a disciple was simply too unbelievable. It was only natural to suspect a scheme.

[Daddy Douluo]: Of course I'm sure!

[Daddy Douluo]: I saw it with my own eyes!

[Daddy Douluo]: Her Spirit Ring configuration was two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. She said her name was Eastern Emperor.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Red... a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring?!

Liu Erlong's eyes widened.

A storm surged through her heart.

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring!

That was something of legend.

She had only ever heard of it in all her years, never seen one with her own eyes!

"Eastern Emperor..."

She had never heard that title before.

Was there really such a Title Douluo on the Douluo Continent?

"That shouldn't be possible."

"If a Title Douluo with a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring truly existed, she couldn't possibly be unknown on the Douluo Continent."

[Green Green Grass]: A-Qing... she... she is...

Ah Yin could not hold back any longer.

She had to tell Lin Qingmo the truth.

Even if it exposed her identity!

Because Bibi Dong was too dangerous!

If A-Qing stayed by her side, something would happen to him sooner or later!

However.

Just as she made up her mind and prepared to type the three words "Bibi Dong."

A message from Bibi Dong suddenly appeared in the Chat Group.

[The Pope Herself]: @Green Green Grass, do you think Ah Yin can sense the aura of the Black-Robed Woman beside A-Qing?

"..."

Ah Yin, who had been typing, stopped thinking.

What... what did that mean?

How did she know Ah Yin could sense the Black-Robed Person?

A terrifying truth surfaced in Ah Yin's mind!

"They!!!"

Ah Yin felt as though she had fallen into an ice cellar.

The Black-Robed Person, Eastern Emperor, was Bibi Dong.

And "The Pope Herself" in the Chat Group was also Bibi Dong!

"They are the same person!"

The thought threw Ah Yin into a panic.

If that was true...

Bibi Dong knew everything about her.

She also knew all of A-Qing's secrets!

That also explained why she had appeared before A-Qing!

Ah Yin did not dare think any further.

Nor did she dare send another message.

She feared that if she said one word too many, not only would her own life be in danger, but A-Qing would be implicated as well.

[Green Green Grass]: ...

In the end, Ah Yin sent only an ellipsis before falling completely silent.

Bibi Dong looked at the messages in the Chat Group beneath her black robe.

A meaningful smile curled across her lips.

Sure enough.

Her guess had been right.

This "Green Green Grass" was Ah Yin.

From Ah Yin's sudden, agitated reaction just now.

To her current hesitation after Bibi Dong tested her.

Bibi Dong had completely confirmed her identity.

This Chat Group is becoming more and more interesting.

Soul Hunting Forest.

Beneath the shade of the trees.

Lin Qingmo followed Bibi Dong, who walked ahead in her black robe, at an unhurried pace.

Most of his attention remained in the Chat Group.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Right, isn't Ah Yin following you?

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: She's a Hundred-Thousand-Year Blue Silver Emperor. Her senses must be sharp. Did she think your Master Eastern Emperor was dangerous?

Lin Qingmo subconsciously touched his pant leg.

There was no response.

[Daddy Douluo]: Ah Yin hasn't reacted.

[Daddy Douluo]: But honestly, if she really meant to harm me, I couldn't escape anyway with the strength of a Title Douluo.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: That... is true.

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: After all, she's a Title Douluo. Crushing you would be as easy as crushing an ant.

[Daddy Douluo]: Ah, I'll just take things as they come!

[Daddy Douluo]: Besides a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, I have nothing now anyway.

[The Pope Herself]: You have quite a good mindset.

[The Pope Herself]: Since you have successfully become her disciple, she should naturally help you hunt your First Spirit Ring.

[The Pope Herself]: You must choose carefully. The First Spirit Ring is of utmost importance to a Soul Master and cannot be treated carelessly.

As soon as Bibi Dong's message appeared, Lin Qingmo could not help nodding.

He agreed completely!

Of course he knew how important the First Spirit Ring was.

[Daddy Douluo]: Don't worry, Imperial Sister.

[Daddy Douluo]: I've long thought of the Spirit Ring type best suited for me. For the life path, Blue Silver Grass is the best choice.

[Daddy Douluo]: Tang San's poisonous-ring approach is truly absurd.

[Daddy Douluo]: I've considered three options that suit me best. Help me evaluate them.

Lin Qingmo began explaining his plans in detail.

His feet did not stop moving.

He followed Bibi Dong deeper into the Soul Hunting Forest, while the surrounding auras of Spirit Beasts grew increasingly dense.

[Daddy Douluo]: The first option is the one closest to the origin of my Martial Soul: the Blue Silver King or the Blue Silver Emperor!

After all, his Martial Soul was Blue Silver Grass.

A Spirit Ring from the same source would surely have the highest compatibility, and its Spirit Skill would be strongest after absorption.

But the problem was equally obvious.

The Blue Silver Emperor was Ah Yin herself, and she had already sacrificed her hundred-thousand-year cultivation.

As for the Blue Silver King.

In the Blue Silver Forest, even the weakest ones were eighty-thousand-year Spirit Beasts.

He was only level ten right now. If he absorbed one, he would explode and die on the spot. It would be pure suicide!

So he could only pass on that option!

[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: At least you have some self-awareness!

[Daddy Douluo]: A man has to have dreams!

[Daddy Douluo]: The second option is a Spirit Beast with a powerful life attribute, like an Emerald Swan.

[Daddy Douluo]: But its drawback is even more fatal.

[Daddy Douluo]: Emerald Swans live in the most central region of the Star Dou Great Forest.

That was a place even Title Douluo did not dare enter lightly.

There were two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts there.

But Lin Qingmo knew there were even more terrifying existences within: Beasts.

The Emerald Swan clan even had Bi Ji.

So this option could only remain a fantasy as well.

When Liu Erlong saw "the Core Area of the Star Dou Great Forest," she could not help frowning.

She had ventured into the Star Dou Great Forest before.

But she had only gone as far as the outer and middle regions.

The Core Area was indeed forbidden ground.

Rumor had it that powerful Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts lived there.

[The Pope Herself]: The Core Area of the Star Dou Great Forest is dangerous. This option is unrealistic.

[The Pope Herself]: What about the third option?

Bibi Dong's message followed promptly.

Guiding Lin Qingmo to continue.

She was becoming increasingly interested in Lin Qingmo's choice of Spirit Ring.

At the same time, as his Master, she naturally had to choose the most suitable Spirit Ring for him.
