Three God-given Spirit Rings shattered above their heads, golden light cascading down over them like a waterfall as surging Soul Power poured into their bodies. At a thought from the three girls, the rudimentary forms of their third Soul Rings began to condense.

Xiao Wu watched the three of them with slight nervousness, curious whether they could truly obtain Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings. At the same time, she felt a little regretful. If she had known, she should not have condensed her third Soul Ring so early. Otherwise, she would have had a place among them now.

"Looks like it's begun!"

Gu Zhi and the others nearby sensed what was happening. Just as Gu Zhi was about to get up and help, Liu Erlong stopped him. She knew that Zhu Zhuqing and the other two were using God-given Spirit Rings. Gu Zhi absolutely could not be allowed to discover that.

"With their abilities, obtaining their third Soul Rings should be a matter of course. Since we've accepted these gifts, shouldn't we consider what comes next?"

Liu Erlong pointed at the pile of treasures gifted by the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, successfully shifting Gu Zhi's attention. There were eight or nine Ten Thousand Year Spirit Bones among them alone. Even for Spirit Hall, that counted as a fortune.

"Fine..."

Gu Zhi was fairly well-off himself. A string of system rewards still awaited collection and organization, and treasures below the thousand-year level no longer held much value for him. He was not particularly short on Ten Thousand Year Spirit Bones either.

After looking through them, Gu Zhi found a high-quality left arm bone. It seemed to contain a mechanism-type soul skill, so he decided to absorb it and increase his strength.

"Take these two Spirit Bones, Sister Liu. They suit your martial soul as well."

After speaking, Gu Zhi selected two Spirit Bones and handed them to Liu Erlong. In terms of strength, Liu Erlong was a reliable backer he could trust. In terms of their closeness, she was also worth investing in.

"Alright... These are the spirit herbs I gathered before. Consider it returning a gift with borrowed flowers."

Liu Erlong refused to take them for free and insisted on exchanging the spirit herbs she and Gu Zhi had gathered earlier. The viewers in the comments were practically sour from watching. They were already marital joint property, yet these two were still being so awkward and putting on this act for the audience!

They smiled at each other, then Gu Zhi and Liu Erlong began absorbing the Spirit Bones.

Just as Gu Zhi had expected, the left arm bone indeed contained a rare mechanism-type soul skill capable of increasing the efficiency of all his cultivation techniques.

Moreover, Gu Zhi realized that this Spirit Bone's greatest function was actually to nurture the Law Seed he had just obtained!

"What a treasure! The Law Seed already increases Law Power as cultivation rises! With this Spirit Bone, the Law Power produced by the Law Seed increases by another 10% each time!"

"So that's what the Law Seed does! No wonder only Gu Zhi has one! My Baby Zhuqing and the others probably need to reach the Titled Douluo realm before they can even attempt to increase their Law Power, right?"

"Law Power was never something Zhu Zhuqing and the others could possess at their current cultivation! Being able to use time for one second with 2 points of Law Power is already absurdly overpowered!"

"One second is enough! With the ridiculously powerful strength of Law Power, one second is more than enough to turn the tide of battle!"

"Have you noticed? Gu Zhi's Law Seed and Law Power have no attribute distinctions! My Baby Rongrong's Law Power was explicitly said to be the power of the Earth God! Everyone else has special descriptions too!"

"I noticed that ages ago! The Law Seed is the embryonic form of the Heavenly Dao! It doesn't need attribute distinctions, alright? With the Law Seed, Gu Zhi can use Law Power of every attribute! He can even suppress all Law Power in return!"

"As expected of Lord Gu Zhi! His abilities are getting more and more outrageous! This is what the strongest god should be!"

What Gu Zhi could comprehend was also explained reasonably through the comments in real time. Then, because of those comments, all the beauties of Douluo Continent watching them learned Gu Zhi's secret as well.

Like the commenters, aside from marveling together at how outrageous Gu Zhi was, the beauties could only become more determined to remain at his side...

"I saw the possibility of you becoming a god. Now I finally understand why Sister Xiao Wu trusts you so much."

Gu Zhi absorbed the Spirit Bone extremely quickly. He had already risen to his feet while Liu Erlong was still working hard. The Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape had quietly watched him all along, but at this moment, they finally could not help but sigh.

"I'll set up two formations for you. From now on, whether humans or Ferocious Beasts attack, you'll be able to use these formations to resist them."

Because of the left arm bone, Gu Zhi decided to do something more for the Sky Azure Bull Python and the others. He still had many treasures he could use, and formations were undoubtedly the most suitable option at present.

"Formations? The kind of area-wide domains that can attack and defend automatically, with strange effects as well?"

Douluo Continent did have the concept and phenomena of formations. For instance, the natural poison formation in Sunset Forest where Dugu Bo lived. It seemed the Sky Azure Bull Python and the others had seen similar things before.

"That's right. These two formations can trap enemies and defend against attacks. They draw upon the power of the earth veins, and you'll control them yourselves. Ordinary Titled Douluo should not be able to break through them easily..."

This was Gu Zhi's first time setting up formations. Fortunately, the earth vein power here was exceptionally dense and powerful. Otherwise, with his current cultivation, he truly would not have been able to create formations with such strong effects.

As he set them up, Gu Zhi explained the key points to the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape. During the process, he also learned quite a bit from the two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, comparable to receiving in-person instruction from Titled Douluo.

Just as the formations were about to be completed, a considerable fluctuation of Soul Power came from the direction where Zhu Zhuqing and the others were. It seemed they had obtained quite impressive Soul Rings.

"We succeeded! We really succeeded! Starting today, we're the new history of Douluo Continent!"

Ning Rongrong stared at the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring around her, overwhelmed with excitement. After all, this was a powerful configuration that only Soul King-level experts could possess.

"What are you so proud of? Douluo Continent's history was changed by Gu Zhi long ago! At most, we're supporting characters."

Meng Yiran opened her beautiful eyes. She looked calm, but inwardly, she was already ecstatic. However, seeing the comments' introduction of Gu Zhi, she had no choice but to suppress the feeling that was about to send her soaring.

"You're such a killjoy!"

Ning Rongrong shot her a glare. Did she really have to compare everything to Gu Zhi? Setting Gu Zhi aside, could she, Ning Rongrong, not make history herself?

"I should be a little closer to him now..."

Joy showed clearly on Zhu Zhuqing's face. Besides being happy about her increased strength, she was delighted to have caught up with Gu Zhi by another small step.

"Alright, it's time for us to head back too... It's fine. I still have my fourth Soul Ring chance!"

Xiao Wu felt a little sour inside, but it was not as if she had no chance to catch up with Zhu Zhuqing and the others. At the very least, her fourth Soul Ring could also have a chance of becoming a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!

By the time they returned, chatting and laughing, Gu Zhi's side had finished as well. It seemed it was time to bring this exploration journey to an end...
