An Unprecedented Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring

The clear sky shone brightly as noon arrived, the scorching sun illuminating the entire Life Lake. By this moment, the Sky Azure Bull Python had completely vanished from this world, leaving behind only a crystal-clear, glowing blue soul bone lying on the ground.

Su Yun Tao's eyes snapped open, his Gale Two-Headed Wolf martial soul instantly manifesting. Beneath his feet, three rings with a bizarre color combination—white, yellow, and red—rose into the air.

If the soul rings obtained from hunting soul beasts require a person to adapt to the ring, then the soul rings produced by sacrifice require the ring to adapt to the person. Life is the greatest miracle in the world, and it is precisely because of this that a blood-red hundred-thousand-year soul ring had appeared on Su Yun Tao.

One must understand that for a soul ring of the hundred-thousand-year level, even an ordinary Titled Douluo might not be able to successfully absorb it given their physical constitution.

With Su Yun Tao's physical condition at the time, even a thousand-year soul ring would have been difficult to absorb. But the Sky Azure Bull Python's sacrifice changed everything, causing his soul ring configuration to undergo a drastic transformation.

Beyond granting him a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and leaving behind a soul bone, the Sky Azure Bull Python's sacrifice also boosted his soul power by over ten levels. In the original story, Xiao Wu's sacrifice raised Tang San's soul power from level sixty to around level sixty-six.

The soul power increase brought about by the sacrifice of the Sky Azure Bull Python, which was far more powerful than Xiao Wu, was even more pronounced. Su Yun Tao could feel that his soul power level had likely reached the Soul King realm.

Not only that, but the Sky Azure Bull Python's vast life force was injected entirely into Su Yun Tao's body, which significantly accelerated his cultivation speed.

It is worth noting that after the hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor sacrificed herself for Tang Hao, Tang Hao did not cultivate at all, spending his days drinking and wallowing in misery, yet his soul power level still automatically rose to level ninety-five.

The life force of the Sky Azure Bull Python was far more immense than that of the Blue Silver Emperor. Therefore, with the dual blessings of the immortal herb and the Sky Azure Bull Python's life force, Su Yun Tao's cultivation speed could even be called the best on the Douluo Continent! Right now, the only person on the Douluo Continent whose cultivation speed could rival his was likely Qian Renxue, with her innate level twenty soul power!

Beyond the comprehensive improvement of his body and attributes, Su Yun Tao's Gale Two-Headed Wolf was further strengthened. In addition to the gale and fire attributes represented by the two wolf heads, his martial soul was now covered in lightning. Clearly, the addition of the Sky Azure Bull Python's hundred-thousand-year soul ring had imbued his Gale Two-Headed Wolf with an incredibly powerful thunder attribute.

The Gale Two-Headed Wolf martial soul, besides being called a Blazing Two-Headed Wolf, now seemed to be appropriately named a Thunder Two-Headed Wolf as well.

Furthermore, the hundred-thousand-year Sky Azure Bull Python left arm bone at Su Yun Tao's feet was a treasure even more precious than the hundred-thousand-year soul ring. If he were to fuse with this hundred-thousand-year soul bone, his physical constitution would reach an outrageous level.

One must realize that even the nine soul rings of a Titled Douluo combined cannot compare to a single hundred-thousand-year soul ring, let alone a hundred-thousand-year soul bone.

Although Su Yun Tao's innate deficiencies meant the potential of the hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone could not be fully realized just yet, he was already an invincible existence within his own realm.

The primary function of the immortal herb is to refresh one's talent and improve one's physique, while the main purpose of soul rings and soul bones is to enhance physical attributes and provide powerful soul skills.

The combination of the immortal herb and the hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone allowed Su Yun Tao to patch all his shortcomings. He now possessed excellent talent, a superior physique, a powerful body, and formidable soul skills.

At this moment, aside from Qian Renxue with her innate level twenty soul power, he had no rivals among the younger generation of soul masters!

The Titan Giant Ape stood to the side, lost in thought with a complex expression. Despite being a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, everything that had transpired was difficult for it to accept.

Su Yun Tao sighed and spoke slowly, "Titan Giant Ape, do not be too sorrowful. Once I become a god, I will surely resurrect your brother!"

The Titan Giant Ape did not speak; clearly, it did not believe a word Su Yun Tao said.

Seeing this, Su Yun Tao said nothing more. Some things can only be proven through action.

"Titan Giant Ape, please escort me out of the Star Dou Great Forest. Tomorrow, I will safely return Xiao Wu and take your brother's soul bone."

Upon hearing this, the Titan Giant Ape silently collected its brother's soul bone, grabbed Su Yun Tao, and began running toward the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Soon, Su Yun Tao returned to the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest and quickly headed toward Nuoding City. The Titan Giant Ape did not return, choosing instead to wait quietly in place.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was sunset again. Su Yun Tao returned to the western outskirts of Nuoding City. After eating some food at his pre-arranged hideout, he picked up the unconscious Xiao Wu and began running back toward the Star Dou Great Forest.

Late at night, the long-waiting Titan Giant Ape finally saw the unconscious Xiao Wu in Su Yun Tao's arms.

"Human! What happened to Sister Xiao Wu!" the Titan Giant Ape said in a deep voice.

Su Yun Tao replied slowly, "My apologies, Xiao Wu's body is perfectly fine; I simply gave her a sedative."

The Titan Giant Ape looked displeased but said nothing more, merely handing the Sky Azure Bull Python's soul bone to Su Yun Tao.

"Human, I hope you keep your promise!"

"Titan Giant Ape, I have returned Xiao Wu safely as agreed, and I will naturally honor the rest of our pact."

The Titan Giant Ape's expression was like that of a different person compared to before, as if the loss of its brother had caused it to mature overnight.

"Human, I will say no more. I know that although your strength is low, your wisdom is extraordinary. You always leave yourself a backup plan. Even if I killed you now, it would not help the situation and would only put my soul beast clan in grave danger."

"I hope you can keep your word. If you dare to go back on it, I, the Titan Giant Ape, will surely make you pay the price!"

Having said this, the Titan Giant Ape picked up Xiao Wu and turned to leave.

"Wait!"

The Titan Giant Ape looked back and said, "Human, do you have more to say?"

Su Yun Tao silently took the Lovesick Heartbreak Red from his soul tool. The Titan Giant Ape felt a stir in its heart as it looked at the flower.

"Titan Giant Ape, this item is called the Lovesick Heartbreak Red. It can mask one's aura. For Xiao Wu, this item is of vital importance."

"She must interact with humans after transforming. Once she possesses the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, even if she encounters a Titled Douluo, her identity will not be exposed!"

A glimmer of light appeared in the Titan Giant Ape's eyes; it was clearly very tempted by the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

"Human, what scheme are you plotting now? Tell me what you want!"

Su Yun Tao smiled and said, "Nothing much. I just want you to help me hunt two ten-thousand-year soul beasts to complete my fourth and fifth soul rings."
