What Will Teacher Er Long's Expression Be When They Become Gods?

Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest, ancient trees reach for the sky, and dappled sunlight filters through the gaps in the canopy, carpeting the ground with fragments of gold.

In the swamp, a Soul Beast the size of a crocodile was struggling desperately.

"Roar!!!"

It is five meters long and has four yellowish-brown eyes side by side on its head.

Its entire body was covered in dark green plate armor, with sharp barbs curling up along the edges of each plate.

Its strong limbs dug through the mud, and with a flick of its tail, it snapped several trees as thick as an arm, splashing mud and water more than ten meters away.

However, this ferocious-looking Soul Beast was completely under their control.

Several Blue Silver Grass vines broke through the soil of the swamp, each as thick as a thigh.

The blue-green vines gleamed with a cold, metallic sheen.

The vines coiled around the limbs and torso of the Four-Eyed Scaled Beast as if they were alive, tightening their grip more and more.

The plate armor made a grating, creaking sound under pressure.

"Roar!"

The Four-Eyed Scaled Beast opened all four of its eyes simultaneously, letting out a low, painful roar from its throat.

Lin Qingmo stood on a blue stone ten meters away, arms crossed, calmly observing the Soul Beast.

"The Four-Eyed Scaled Beast should stop now."

The tone was like reasoning with a disobedient pet, lazy and languid.

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his right hand, bringing his index and middle fingers together and gently pointing forward.

Purple arcs of electricity suddenly appeared on the surface of the Blue Silver Grass vines that Entanglement the Four-Eyed Scaled Beast.

"Sizzle--"

Arcs of electricity crackled and leaped among the vines, thick bolts of lightning flowing down the vines and into the Four-Eyed Scaled Beast's body.

Purple light shone through the green plate armor, illuminating the entire Soul Beast.

"Roar?!"

The Four-Eyed Scaled Beast let out a shrill roar, its four eyes rolled back, and its body convulsed violently.

Wisps of black smoke rose from the gaps in the plate armor, and a burnt smell filled the air.

Its struggles grew weaker and weaker, its limbs drooped limply, its tail thumped the ground weakly, and it became completely still.

Black smoke billowed from its mouth, nostrils, and under its nails, and its body would occasionally twitch spasmodically.

At least he's not completely dead yet.

Lin Qingmo withdrew his finger, turned around and called out to Rongrong, "Ning Rongrong, let's do it."

"Okay!"

Ning Rongrong walked out quickly from behind the bluestone.

She held a specially made short dagger in her right hand, specifically for delivering the final blow to the Soul Beast.

"Watch me!"

Ning Rongrong jogged up to the Four-Eyed Scaled Beast and looked at the huge creature that was several times her size.

He gripped the dagger with both hands and forcefully stabbed it into the gap between the head and the deck.

"Pfft!"

The moment the dagger pierced through, blood gushed out.

The Four-Eyed Scaled Beast's body trembled violently, then it completely lost its life.

A purple halo slowly rose from its corpse.

Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.

"It's done!"

Dugu Yan emerged from behind a nearby tree.

She glanced at the purple Spirit Ring, a smile playing on her lips. "Ning Rongrong, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and absorb it; you're the only one missing."

Xiao Wu glanced at the corpse of the Four-Eyed Scaled Beast with a complicated expression, but said nothing.

Zhu Zhuqing walked out from the other side, with a slender figure and neat short black hair.

She nodded to Ning Rongrong, "Just focus on absorbing the nutrients; we'll take care of the rest of you."

"Ning Rongrong, absorb quickly! We'll protect you!"

Riding the Yu Feng, he glanced around.

"Yes, I know."

Ning Rongrong sheathed the dagger in her leather sheath at her waist, walked to the area below the Spirit Ring, and sat down cross-legged.

The purple Spirit Ring was drawn down slowly, enveloping her in a dense purple light.

The power of the Spirit Ring surged into her body, causing her brows to furrow slightly and fine beads of sweat to appear on her forehead.

Xiao Wu and the others spread out around Ning Rongrong, keeping a watchful eye on their surroundings.

Liu Erlong strolled over.

Her long, fiery red hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and she wore a red robe with a wide black belt around her waist.

She walked over to Lin Qingmo and stood beside him, looking at Ning Rongrong who was absorbing the Spirit Ring.

"Fourth Spirit Ring that's seven thousand five hundred years old..." Liu Erlong shook his head. "It's terrifying to even hear that."

Lin Qingmo glanced at her sideways. "Does Teacher Er Long think this age limit is too high?"

"It's not too high, it's far too high."

Liu Erlong crossed his arms, the sleeves of his red robe swaying slightly.

"I've taught at the Blue Tyrant Academy for so many years, and I've seen quite a few students."

"Those who can reach the five-thousand-year limit with their Fourth Spirit Ring are already extremely rare, seven thousand five hundred years—"

She paused, then sighed.

"I wouldn't even dare to think about it?" Lin Qingmo finished her sentence.

"Yes, I wouldn't even dare to dream of it."

Liu Erlong gave a wry smile, "But compared to you, no genius is worth mentioning."

Among this group of teenagers, Lin Qingmo's Soul Ring Configuration was the most outrageous.

Xiao Wu, with her sharp ears, heard this from afar and turned around to chime in with a grin, "Teacher Er Long, you'll get used to it!"

"We were terrified of A-Qing every day back then, but we later realized he was a Monster and couldn't be judged by normal standards at all."

As she spoke, she stuck her tongue out at Lin Qingmo.

"Xiao Wu is right!"

Yu Feng shouted from the other end, "He's a Monster —ouch!"

Dugu Yan flicked her forehead. "Yu Feng, shut up and just stay in your position."

"I know, I know."

Yu Feng shrank his neck and obediently turned back to continue his vigilance.

Liu Erlong watched the children interact and shook his head.

This time, the shake of the head wasn't a sigh, but rather a kind of resigned acceptance.

Two weeks ago.

Lin Qingmo took out Immortal Herb and Soul Bone to enhance the Soul Power of Ning Rongrong and the others. Liu Erlong was right next to them, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets.

Afterwards, she led this group of teenagers into the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for Spirit Ring.

Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Lingling, and Yu Feng completed their Soul Hunting one after another.

She witnessed firsthand how these children absorbed one Beyond-Limit Spirit Ring after another, and her initial overwhelming emotions gradually turned into numbness.

"To be honest..."

Liu Erlong turned her head to look at Lin Qingmo, her tone becoming serious, "I used to think I was very worldly-wise."

"But after a month, I realized that all the worldly experience I've had is nothing compared to this."

She paused, then changed the subject. "But, you really don't feel any pain giving away those Soul Bone Immortal Herb?"

Lin Qingmo shrugged, his tone still unhurried. "Teacher Er Long, what's the point of hiding things from your own people? Xiao Wu and the others deserve it."

Liu Erlong stared at him for several seconds, then suddenly sighed, "You're quite generous."

"A-Qing has always been like this."

Xiao Wu put her hands behind her back, tilted her head, and smiled.

"Teacher Er Long, please don't worry about it. In A-Qing's eyes, the Soul Bone Immortal Herb is as common as cabbage."

"Chinese cabbage?"

Liu Erlong was amused by the analogy and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Fine, I guess I was just ignorant."

Liu Erlong let out a long breath, a few strands of her fiery red hair fluttering in the forest breeze.

She watched Ning Rongrong absorb the Spirit Ring. The purple light had gradually stabilized, and Ning Rongrong's brows relaxed.

"Following you little rascals, my heart will have to be toughened up sooner or later," she remarked half-jokingly.

Lin Qingmo's lips curled into a slight smile, "Then Teacher Er Long should prepare himself mentally, there's more to come."

I wonder what Liu Erlong's expression will be when Xiao Wu and the others become gods along with him.
