Deep into Star Dou, an Angel Suddenly Appears...

A two-thousand-year Soul Ring. A soul beast of this age had already surpassed the limit of an ordinary Soul Master's third Soul Ring, but to Tang San, who possessed a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone and whose Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline had advanced to the Blue Silver King level, it was merely the worst choice.

If this Soul Ring's age were below two thousand years, it would be too low. As for Soul Rings no older than three thousand years, Tang San should now be able to absorb them all. This was the result of Tang Wulin's assessment.

Finding a three-thousand-year-old plant soul beast wasn't difficult. With the help of the Blue Silver Domain, Tang Wulin found several of them in less than half a day.

After some selection, a soul beast called Earth-Entangling Hemp Root was chosen to become Tang San's second Soul Ring.

Earth-Entangling Hemp Root was a mutated plant rooted beneath the ground. Along with its powerful vitality, it possessed a Paralysis attribute. It wasn't very aggressive, but its tenacious vitality ranked among the best even among plant soul beasts.

Its powerful vitality and inherent Paralysis attribute were what Tang San valued.

Tang San's Blue Silver King needed powerful vitality to continuously transform, while the Paralysis attribute would give him another way to incapacitate his enemies in the future.

Paralysis combined with absorption would truly plunge Xiao San's future enemies into a desperate situation.

"Teacher, I'll choose this Earth-Entangling Hemp Root!"

After Tang Wulin told Tang San all of his thoughts, Tang San decided without the slightest hesitation.

With the Paralysis attribute and his first Soul Skill, he would be able to establish himself in an invincible position.

Moreover, he also had hidden weapons. By then, he would truly be invincible among those of the same rank!

Tang San yearned for power. His teacher had already paved the road before him. If he still hesitated, he truly wouldn't deserve to be his teacher's disciple, wouldn't deserve to be his teacher's disciple.

Seeing that Tang San had made his decision, Tang Wulin nodded slightly. The Blue Silver Emperor in his hand trembled faintly, and a huge amount of Blue Silver Grass rose from the earth, extending and winding outward. In almost an instant, the area where the Earth-Entangling Hemp Vine was located had transformed into a sea of Blue Silver Grass.

The sharp Blue Silver Grass vines pierced and bound the target tightly, forcing it to reveal its roots.

"Xiao San, move!"

Dealing with a soul beast under three thousand years old, Tang Wulin naturally didn't need to use his full strength.

Using the Blue Silver Emperor was completely sufficient. As for Soul Skills, there was no need to use them against a mere soul beast under three thousand years old.

Tang San nodded and rushed over, severing its roots!

Even after its roots were severed, the Earth-Entangling Hemp Vine, which possessed its full vitality, didn't die immediately. Tang San split it into more than a dozen pieces before barely managing to kill it.

With the Earth-Entangling Hemp Vine's death, a purple Soul Ring condensed from its severed body, floating in the air and faintly radiating an extraordinary fluctuation of Soul Power.

"Xiao San, strengthen your conviction and guard your spirit. With your current physique, this two-thousand-eight-hundred-year Soul Ring can't do anything to you!"

Tang San nodded. He was no longer a novice. His Martial Soul Evolution and the Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone had brought about a qualitative transformation in his physique. He didn't take a mere two-thousand-eight-hundred-year Soul Ring seriously.

Tang San sat cross-legged beside the Soul Ring and immediately entered meditation, circulating the Mysterious Heaven Skill to absorb the Soul Ring's energy.

As Tang San began absorbing the energy within the Soul Ring, the Blue Silver King Martial Soul in his right hand swayed as well, radiating waves of dense life force.

Tang Wulin sat to the side, guarding against any sudden attack by a soul beast.

This time, absorbing the Soul Ring took slightly longer than the previous time.

After all, a two-thousand-eight-hundred-year Soul Ring contained energy that naturally couldn't compare to that of a seven- or eight-hundred-year soul beast.

Two hours later...

Tang San opened his eyes. Beneath his feet, one yellow and one purple Soul Ring continuously flashed with light.

He had succeeded!

"My Soul Power is at level twenty-three. My body was greatly strengthened by the life force that replenished it during the Soul Ring absorption process."

"Most importantly, my Blue Silver King inherited the Paralysis attribute!"

"Second Soul Skill: Paralysis Thorns!"

Tang San excitedly summoned the Blue Silver King as the second Soul Ring began to flash.

In an instant, a large number of Blue Silver Grass thorns rose from the ground, piercing through several large trees in front of him one after another.

The thorns' might was extraordinary. If an ordinary two-ring or even three-ring Soul Master tried to withstand them head-on, the final outcome would only be having their body pierced and being completely shredded.

The thorns were extraordinary and could even serve as a trump card, but what was truly insidious was what lay hidden behind them.

As the thorns were released, a large amount of Paralysis Powder scattered silently. If someone carelessly inhaled even one breath, they would be completely paralyzed without knowing how or why.

"Xiao San, very good. You haven't disappointed me!"

"Keep it up. I believe that in the future, you'll definitely surpass your teacher and become one of the continent's top experts."

Tang Wulin waved his hand, using the strength of his physical body to whip up a gust of wind that swept away the Paralysis Powder scattered in the air. Looking at Tang San, a hint of praise appeared on his handsome face.

"Teacher..."

Tang San nodded gratefully.

He needed recognition too badly. His teacher's unhesitating approval moved him deeply every time.

His teacher was truly too good to him!

After resolving Tang San's Soul Ring, Tang Wulin immediately headed toward the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The Star Dou Great Forest was divided into the outer region, the mixed region, the core region, and the forbidden zone of life!

The Soul Ring Tang Wulin needed had to be at least eighty thousand years old.

A soul beast of this level was already powerful enough to rival a Titled Douluo. Even with the Golden Dragon Spear in hand, Tang Wulin would need to go all out to have any chance of victory!

As for soul beasts older than eighty thousand years, finding one required entering the core region!

At the same time, in the mixed region of the Star Dou Great Forest!

Towering trees blocked out the sky and sun. The dense forest was deep and silent, with rustling sounds occasionally coming from within.

In such an environment, without sufficient strength, advancing deeper would be practically impossible.

Yet at this moment, a group of three moved through this environment as easily as walking on level ground. They showed not the slightest panic or vigilance, as though they were touring their own backyard.

This group of three consisted of two men and one woman!

The woman possessed a noble bearing. Her skin was fair, her features beautiful, and her tall, curvaceous figure was perfectly proportioned. Her high, straight nose accentuated her sharply defined features, while her slightly slender phoenix eyes narrowed faintly. Between her brows was the imposing authority of someone who had long occupied a position of power!

As she walked, she clearly took the initiative.

The two men behind her also possessed extraordinary auras.

One was thin, clad in golden armor, and holding a Snake Lance that glinted with cold light. The other was rotund, resembling a mountain of flesh from a distance, with fiery red hair blazing like flames and an extremely ugly, terrifying face!

These two men and one woman were none other than Qian Renxue, Snake Lance Douluo, and Pufferfish Douluo!
