Over the next few months,
Bai Ran successfully opened his second meridian and converted all the Soul Power in his body into the Mysterious Heaven Technique's Internal Force.
Not only had there been breakthroughs in both quality and quantity, but his Soul Power recovery speed had also become much faster than before.
Aside from the Mysterious Heaven Technique, Bai Ran did not learn a single one of the Tang Sect's other ultimate arts.
It was not that Tang Wutong refused to teach him, but that Bai Ran did not want to learn them.
Bai Ran: Learning just one Mysterious Heaven Technique was enough to make your old man come rushing over. If I learned every Tang Sect ultimate art, wouldn't God King Tang treat me like the man who killed his father?
Actually, aside from that reasoning, Bai Ran deliberately refused to learn them just to irritate Tang San.
Bai Ran: Heh~ This young master looks down on your Tang Sect ultimate arts. I just won't learn them. Mad or not?
When Bai Ran had originally sought out Little Seven to learn the Mysterious Heaven Technique, Tang San had not wanted him to learn it.
Now that Bai Ran was refusing to learn the Tang Sect's ultimate arts, Tang San instead began wondering why this little fellow was no longer learning them.
Tang San: My Tang Sect's ultimate arts are so profound and extensive. Why aren't you learning them? Learn them! Learn them already!
Tang San was so anxious that he wanted to send Bai Ran another dream, urging him to quickly learn the Tang Sect's other ultimate arts.
After half a year of settling in, it was time to acquire his third Soul Ring.
Come to think of it, his second Soul Ring was already thirty thousand years old. How many years should he aim for with his third?
With Bai Ran's current physical constitution, combined with the limit Tang Wutong could withstand, it would probably be around eight thousand years.
Tang Wutong simply could not withstand the soul shock of a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
If Tang San had not acted so quickly last time, Tang Wutong would probably have become an idiot.
Although Tang Wutong becoming an idiot would not have affected Bai Ran too much,
between a healthy person and an idiot, even an idiot knew to choose the former, right?
Besides, if Tang Wutong became an idiot, who would teach him how to cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Technique?
Still, his second Soul Ring was Ten-Thousand-Year, only for his third Soul Ring to drop back down to Thousand-Year. That was somewhat abrupt.
As the saying went, it was easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go from luxury back to frugality.
Now that he was accustomed to the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring tier, how could he willingly return to the Thousand-Year Soul Ring tier?
Bai Ran: If possible, how about arranging for another Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast to sacrifice itself, Tang San?
Thus, before acquiring his Soul Ring, Bai Ran specifically paid a visit to Seniors Da Ming and Er Ming.
He asked whether they had any heavenly treasures that could improve physical constitution,
or treasures that could enhance Mental Power.
After all, absorbing a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Ring required not only sufficient physical constitution, but also formidable Mental Power.
Why had Huo Yuhao in the original work been able to absorb Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings starting from his third Soul Ring?
Wasn't it because his Mental Power was so strong? Of course, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's help had also been indispensable.
Whale Glue?
No, no. Wang Dong'er in the original work had been a girl. Even if the side effects of Whale Glue flared up after she ate it, she could just suppress them with a Cold Jade Bed.
But Bai Ran was a boy now, and Tang Wutong was inside his body.
Give him Whale Glue? Honestly, before the Cold Jade Bed could suppress him, he might end up grabbing Little Seven and start kissing her.
No, that would not do. It absolutely would not do.
Just imagining it made Da Ming and Er Ming's scalps tingle.
And if Tang San saw that scene, he might get so furious that he would kill the two of them.
The immortal herbs at the Icefire Yin Yang Well?
Those would not work either. Those immortal herbs were far too old, and it was not yet time for them.
In the end, Da Ming and Er Ming decided to first search the Clear Sky Sect's sect treasure vault.
Although the Clear Sky Sect had remained hidden from the world for a long time, it was still a great sect with a ten-thousand-year inheritance.
It should have quite a few good things.
After some searching, Da Ming really did find something good—a Jade Marrow Iceheart Lotus.
After consuming it, it could improve one's physical constitution to a certain extent.
Of course, this item's most important effect was actually increasing the toughness of one's meridians.
For Tang Sect disciples who had cultivated the complete Mysterious Heaven Technique,
consuming it could increase their chances of successfully opening the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.
The reason Wang Dong'er had been given Whale Glue in the original work was purely because there had been plenty of the stuff.
The Clear Sky Sect's treasure vault only had one or two heavenly treasures on the level of a Jade Marrow Iceheart Lotus.
Besides heavenly treasures that enhanced physical constitution, Er Ming also found a treasure that could strengthen Mental Power—an Earthcore Jade Lingzhi.
