"A big gift? What big gift?" Tang San asked in surprise. "Big brother, isn't this Soul Ring a gift for me?"
"This is nothing, just a 90,000-year-old Soul Ring, it's far from enough!" Qi Ling laughed. "I have to get you something much better, otherwise how can it be considered a great gift!"
"Alright, Xiao San, you and Xiao Wu should go back and rest. You can't overexert yourself right now. Leave the rest to me," Qi Ling said.
Although Tang San didn't know what Qi Ling wanted to do, since he had already made his decision, he just needed to wait. So Tang San and Xiao Wu returned to their previous hiding place and waited for Qi Ling.
The exertion he had just endured had nearly exhausted Tang San's body, so he fell into a deep sleep again after returning. When he awoke, Qi Ling had already returned to the cave, along with the "gift" she had brought back for Tang San.
"Look, Xiao San, this is my big gift to you!" Qi Ling said with a proud smile, "I went through a lot of trouble to catch these two things."
Behind Qi Ling, two enormous spiders were bound together. One was the same as the Earth Tiger-Striped Cave Spider that Tang San had absorbed, only with a larger abdomen. The other was a gigantic Man Faced Demon Spider.
"This is..." Tang San exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the two spiders Qi Ling had brought back. Had his older brother gotten into a fascination with spiders? How come he brought back two more?
"This is a wonderful gift from you!" Qi Ling laughed. "This Earth Tiger-Striped Cave Spider is an 80,000-year-old Soul Beast, and it's female. It's very likely that it and the one you absorbed before were husband and wife."
" Xiao San, I've already deduced that as long as you absorb this spider, the Soul Ring you absorbed before will mutate, potentially increasing their age to 100,000 years! Even if that doesn't happen, it will still be very beneficial!"
Tang San looked at the giant Earth Tiger-Striped Cave Spider in surprise and said, "But, Big Brother, I've already absorbed my Sixth Soul Ring, how can I continue absorbing more?"
"Idiot, use your Eight Spider Lances ' devouring ability! You've used it before!" Qi Ling said, "After you absorb this guy, absorbing this Man Faced Demon Spider will be much more beneficial to you!"
Tang San was speechless. How could his elder brother think that devouring Soul Beast was as easy as eating Xiaolong? Every devouring was extremely difficult!
However, as Qi Ling said, this was indeed an excellent opportunity for Tang San. Having studied Soul Beast theory under the Grandmaster, Tang San knew that the devouring evolution that Qi Ling mentioned was indeed a feasible theory, and the success rate was not small.
In this way, he could not only gain tremendous benefits, but also replenish his Soul Power and physical strength by devouring the two spiders, allowing him to recover sooner.
With his Soul Power surging behind him, Tang San summoned the Eight Spider Lances behind him, inserting the eight spikes into the body of the Earth Tiger-Striped Cave Spider, and then began to devour the power within its body.
As the absorption continued, Tang San could clearly feel a special energy surging into his body. Not only did he not feel any discomfort, but he also felt a sense of comfort all over his body.
This feeling was like a couple reuniting, filled with anticipation and eagerness. As these forces surged in, Tang San's 90,000-year Soul Ring lit up and began to change continuously.
These changes were actually part of Qi Ling's plan. Because they were of the same species and origin, and were husband and wife, the power of this Earth Tiger-Striped Cave Spider would only be absorbed by Tang San's Sixth Soul Ring, thus providing him with the greatest benefit.
As Tang San absorbed all of this power, his Sixth Soul Ring evolved to its final stage, its color gradually changing from black to red, but it was still just a little short of completion.
"No way? Ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine? That can't be that close!" Qi Ling looked at Tang San's Soul Ring and felt a pang of pain in her teeth. So close, what was she going to do?
At this moment, Qi Ling glanced at the Man Faced Demon Spider beside her. Luckily, she was prepared; this guy was also a spider, so it should be enough to replenish the last bit of energy she had for this mission, right?
" Xiao San, don't stop!" Qi Ling said, throwing the Man Faced Demon Spider in front of Tang San as well. "Continue, devour it too!"
Following Qi Ling's instructions, Tang San relentlessly inserted the Eight Spider Lances into the body of the Man Faced Demon Spider, continuing to absorb its energy.
With the energy from the Man Faced Demon Spider replenishing his strength, Tang San finally made up for the last bit of Soul Power he was missing. His Sixth Soul Ring instantly became a 100,000-year Soul Ring, radiating a dazzling crimson light.
Seeing Tang San's Soul Ring successfully evolve, Qi Ling couldn't help but reveal a smug smile. Indeed, Tang San's physical endurance was not enough to absorb a 100,000-year Soul Ring, but she had a way to turn his 90,000-year Soul Ring into Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!
However, this is an exception among exceptions, unique to Tang San. No one else could have achieved this, and it is all because of Tang San's Eight Spider Lances, whose unique devouring ability became the foundation of everything.
Without this miraculous External Soul Bone, even if you find Soul Beast that is very similar, even a twin brother, it would be impossible to produce such an effect. This is an unrepeatable miracle.
Looking at Tang San's Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, Xiao Wu exclaimed in surprise, " Brother Qi, my Brother San! Third Brother actually obtained a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, and he got it on his Sixth Soul Ring! That's amazing!"
"Of course, he deserves it!" Qi Ling laughed. "Only Soul Ring like that is worthy of his SS potential value. How could my brother, Qi Ling's brother, be an ordinary person?"
"What about me? What about me, Brother Qi? Do I have any special skills?" Xiao Wu asked Qi Ling curiously.
"You? Of course you have one too, you..." Qi Ling was speechless for a moment. Xiao Wu was a Soul Beast, how was she supposed to evaluate herself? "You're the best at making Soul Ring?"
"You're the cutest person in the world, that's what you're best at!" After thinking for a long time, Qi Ling could only answer like this.
"Hmph! That's just a perfunctory remark!" Xiao Wu said discontentedly. " Brother Qi, I also want to become stronger so I can protect you and Brother San from now on! I don't want you to get hurt anymore."
"Yes, Xiao Wu, one day you'll become incredibly powerful, I promise!" Qi Ling said with a smile.
"How amazing? Can anyone be more amazing than you?" Xiao Wu asked with a smile.
"Hmm... Besides me, you're the most powerful person in the world!" Qi Ling laughed.
