Tang San Regretted It Bitterly! Soul Bones Self-Produced and Self-Consumed! Going Premium, Please Pick Me, Quack!

"What did you mean by 'don't worry'?"

Huh?

Flender looked toward First Hong, who had spoken up. A purple spirit ring quietly revolved beneath his feet.

"You've already finished absorbing the spirit ring?"

"Yeah." First Hong said casually, "My martial soul is of relatively high quality. This spirit ring was only a little over a thousand years old, so I adapted to it in a few seconds."

Flender: "."

Every single person present had been dealt a blow.

Even when absorbing a hundred-year spirit ring, which one of them did not need at least half an hour?

This was ridiculous!

How could it be so fast?

"First, what is my spirit ring—ah, no, what is your spirit ring's soul skill?" Tang San asked strangely.

A black spirit ring lit up in response.

"Buzz—"

The branches of the Life Ancient Tree surged wildly, tying Tang San up tight and firmly contracting around him.

"First Soul Skill: Life Entanglement."

First Hong introduced it—

"It binds and continuously crushes enemies, absorbs their life force to replenish itself, and takes root inside their bodies to grow without restraint."

"If it invades the body and grows wildly, it will pierce internal organs, shatter bones, and destroy the body's meridians."

"For a thousand-year soul skill, it's decent enough."

Tang San: "."

Decent enough?

He was simply tied up too tightly to speak.

Otherwise, he would definitely—

Well.

Curse him a few more times in his heart.

His First Soul Skill was merely "Entanglement," with a bit of Mandala Snake Venom added on.

Four hundred and fifty years—pure soft control.

Yet this thousand-year spirit ring combined binding, restriction, weakening, and attack into one!

And this was merely decent?

Such a show-off!

What an outrageous show-off!

Tang San nearly ground his teeth to pieces.

He should not have asked!

He should have just tried to see whether he could absorb it.

He regretted it!

In truth.

"God of Phoenix": Streamer, you really know how to play! Let's donate an eight-thousand-year spirit ring enhancement, then use the power of a nine-thousand-year soul skill to impersonate a thousand-year soul skill.

"God of Phoenix": Tsk, tsk, tsk! Tang San is about to crush his teeth.

First Hong chuckled.

He got eight thousand years for free, and they got some entertainment.

A win-win situation.

"This age is way too low." First Hong deliberately said with disdain, "It doesn't match my status. I'll raise it a little."

Everyone was utterly confused. What was he talking about?

First Hong claimed the Spirit Ring Age +10,000 Years.

The purple thousand-year First Spirit Ring deepened, thickened, and expanded before everyone's eyes, finally turning into a black spirit ring.

Everyone: ↓

What?!

What the hell?!

A thousand-year spirit ring had become a ten-thousand-year spirit ring?

This completely overturned everything they knew. Their minds collectively crashed.

They simply could not comprehend it!

After a long while.

"First." Zhu Zhuqing spoke with difficulty. "How did your spirit ring age... increase?"

"Oh? You can't do that?" First Hong scratched his head. "You just inject divine power into the spirit ring, and its age increases on its own."

Everyone: ↓

(▄π▄)●)●)

Heh heh.

Listen to that!

Just?

Inject divine power?

Increases on its own?

What niche terms.

"Then..." Zhu Zhuqing asked bluntly, "Can you increase someone else's spirit ring age?"

Everyone's eyes lit up as they looked expectantly at First Hong.

If he could...

Unfortunately.

He really could not.

Whenever First Hong claimed an increase in spirit ring age, it was directly added to the spirit ring.

There was no room for manipulation at all.

So he casually made something up—

"I do have plenty of divine power, but it's all stamped with my spiritual imprint. Once it leaves me, it'll go berserk."

"If I increase your spirit ring ages, there's a high chance you'll explode on the spot."

"Anyone want to give it a try?"

His gaze deliberately swept toward Tang San. If you dared, he would give you an extra-heavy dose!

Everyone looked at each other.

An increase in spirit ring age was certainly tempting.

But he had said there was a "high chance" of it happening. Who would be stubborn enough to go up and throw their life away?

Even Zhu Zhuqing, who longed for strength, sighed regretfully.

There were basic rules to getting stronger too. The gains and risks were far too disproportionate.

"God of Speed": Streamer, hurry up! Use something good to close the distance!

First Hong pursed his lips.

Having his true self instruct him on how to woo himself was truly a rare experience.

He took Zhu Zhuqing's hand and placed a Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum in it.

"Eat the stamen first, then the petals. An Agility Attack System soul master with an Indestructible Body of a Vajra can preserve her life at critical moments."

"Improve your physique first. I might need your help later."

—He had originally planned to have Ning Rongrong absorb the spirit ring and soul bone from the Eight Spider Lances, but since Zhu Zhuqing had come to him herself, she was more suitable.

Zhu Zhuqing clenched the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, her breathing growing hurried!

An immortal herb?

He was just giving it to her?

Help?

Later?

Tonight?

What kind of help required nighttime...

But she simply could not refuse an immortal herb placed in her hands.

"Alright... I'll come over later and take a look."

"Mm, then it's settled."

First Hong did not think much of it and walked toward Tang San.

This made the latter look at him warily.

What are you trying to do?

"Don't be scared." First Hong handed him the soul bone. "You exploded it yourself. Absorb it."

Tang San held his own right leg soul bone, hesitating to speak.

This feeling...

Was too surreal.

The question was, should he absorb it?

Soul bones were rare.

But a thousand-year soul bone did not have much potential either.

Still, this was a soul bone that he had "exploded himself." Perhaps absorbing it would have some miraculous effect?

It was a difficult decision.

"What, you don't want it?" First Hong raised a brow. "Then give it back to me."

Tang San hurriedly stepped back, avoiding First Hong's hand.

"I'm only considering it." Tang San said awkwardly, "After all, its age is just too..."

There was indeed no getting around that.

But since the audience big shots had made a request, as a streamer, he had to fulfill it as much as possible.

Since reason would not work, then he would not reason with him!

"I'm rather curious what would happen if someone absorbed a soul bone they exploded themselves." First Hong laid the groundwork. "Consider it helping Xiao Wu repay what she owes me."

Tang San heard this.

He glanced at Xiao Wu and the Divine Immortal Herb in her hand.

Since this soul bone was self-produced and self-consumed, perhaps there would be some wonderful change.

So he nodded in agreement.

"Little San!" Xiao Wu grew anxious. "Once a soul bone is absorbed, there's no way to replace it. You..."

"Who says it can't be replaced?" First Hong retorted. "The simplest method is to kill the person, dig out the soul bone, then revive them once more. Nothing happens."

Xiao Wu: "."

Everyone: ↓

(▄π▄)●)●)

Who could replicate your method?!

Yet it really was feasible. Tang San had just had his bones dug out and been reborn.

"Xiao Wu, it's fine!" Tang San comforted her. "Actually, I'm curious too about what would happen if I absorbed a soul bone that I exploded myself."

Seeing this, Xiao Wu could only sigh.

She looked worriedly at the Lovesick Heartbreak Red in her hands.

If she had known earlier, she would not have...

"You're still unwilling?" First Hong pointed out, "Divine Immortal Herbs possess endless wonders. Even if you don't consume it and merely keep it close to your body, it can conceal you. No one below godhood can inspect the details. To you, it's comparable to a lifesaving talisman."

Xiao Wu's eyes lit up!

Then Title Douluo would not be able to discover that she had undergone Beast Transformation?

She hurriedly tucked the Lovesick Heartbreak Red close against her body.

First Hong smiled mysteriously as he watched Tang San begin absorbing the soul bone.

Then he called out in his heart—
