From Douluo to Defying Heaven and Becoming a God Chapter 43

Tonight, he was going to absorb his first spirit ring and become a spirit master.

He was very curious: after more than two months of training, given his current physique and willpower, just how far could he persist, and what kind of spirit ring would he obtain?

Chapter 21: Jiang Chen's Limit Challenge

After absorbing a God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, one would gain the most needed skill. Furthermore, the longer one persisted, the higher the age of the spirit ring would be, and the greater the power of the spirit skill obtained.

The most important thing for Jiang Chen now was to survive the heavenly tribulation. He guessed that the first spirit skill he would obtain should be defensive in nature.

Focusing his mental power on the system, he chose to open the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring, and the system popped up a reminder once again.

After absorbing the spirit ring, the host must survive the first heavenly tribulation within three days. It is recommended that the host persist as long as possible while absorbing the spirit ring to increase the chances of surviving the heavenly tribulation. Please confirm whether to absorb?

This time, Jiang Chen did not shrink back; his heart trembling, he chose to confirm.

Absorbing his first spirit ring was like a young man entering the bridal chamber for the first time—how could he not be excited?

Not to mention that he had never even entered a bridal chamber before.

The moment he confirmed, a golden bead appeared out of thin air above his head. Immediately after, the bead shattered, transforming into a dense golden light that merged into him through the crown of his head.

In an instant, his entire body radiated a dazzling golden light, making him look like a Vajra Buddha. Accompanied by that intense golden light, a divine and oppressive aura spread out, lingering within several yards of his body.

At this moment, Tang Hao, who had been dead drunk in bed, woke up abruptly. Without disturbing Tang San, he quietly walked out.

As soon as he stepped outside, he looked toward the village chief's courtyard, where a sliver of golden light was leaking through the gaps in the doors and windows of one of the rooms.

The aura that had startled him was coming from that very room, and he recognized it as Jiang Chen's room.

He sensed it carefully with his vast mental power, and his expression changed immediately, revealing a look of disbelief.

This was actually the aura of absorbing a spirit ring! And judging by the fluctuations of the aura, the grade of this spirit ring was definitely not low.

"Where did this kid get a spirit ring? Could he be a 100,000-year spirit beast in human form?"

It was impossible for spirit beasts to appear in Holy Soul Village, which meant Jiang Chen's spirit ring did not come from hunting a spirit beast. The only possibility was that he was a 100,000-year spirit beast in human form, capable of generating his first spirit ring on his own.

Tang Hao's wife was a 100,000-year spirit beast in human form, so he was all too familiar with these secrets.

However, if he were a 100,000-year spirit beast in human form, Tang Hao's strength as a Title Douluo would definitely have allowed him to see through it. Yet, based on his observations over such a long time, Jiang Chen was definitely not a spirit beast in human form.

This was very strange. Where on earth did Jiang Chen's spirit ring come from?

Tang Hao was completely baffled. He just stood there quietly, looking toward Jiang Chen's direction in confusion...

When the golden light poured into Jiang Chen's body, he only felt a warm sensation all over, but before he could enjoy it, the massive energy began to erupt within him.

The energy brought by the God-Bestowed Spirit Ring was incomparably vast, like a boundless, surging sea, scouring his body over and over again.

It was fine at first; with his strong physique, he could handle it easily. But the impact of the energy within his body became increasingly pronounced. After an hour, a large amount of filth and impurities were expelled from every pore on his body.

This was the energy of the spirit ring cleansing his marrow and cutting his tendons, purging the impurities from his body.

The energy within him became more and more surging, to the point where it felt like it was about to burst Jiang Chen apart.

At this moment, the veins on his forehead were bulging, his face was twisted, and one could even see the energy darting around inside his body through his skin.

"No, I can't hold on anymore." He let out a low growl and transformed into his zombie form, which immediately caused the pressure within his body to decrease significantly.
