Tang San sat listlessly for a long time, unable to discern which path was superior and more suitable for him.
At one point, he suddenly raised his head, changing his indifferent demeanor.
His face was full of smiles as he said to Hao Zi:
"Father, could you roughly explain to me how the predecessors in the Sect who have reached the Title Douluo level develop their Spirits and add spirit rings?"
"Yes."
Tang Hao didn't refuse.
Having grown up in the mountain gate since childhood, he was extremely familiar with the spirit ring skills and Spirit abilities of the Title Douluos.
Including Grandpa Tang Chen, who personally taught him a lot back then; he could be said to know everything like the back of his hand.
This time when he went back, he also saw five newly advanced Titled Douluos.
Because they were still brooding over what happened twelve years ago, the two sides exchanged blows, and he gained some understanding.
As Hao Zi narrated, Tang San quickly fell into deep thought again.
Father, Grandpa, two Clear Sky Douluos, Grandpa Tyrant Douluo, Second Grandpa Shocking Douluo, Uncle Howling Douluo, as well as Thunder Douluo, Fiery Sun Douluo, Gale Douluo, Spirit Ice Douluo…
Four feasible directions: balanced route, Ultimate burst, absolute power, and all-rounder to make up for shortcomings, all could find corresponding examples.
However, the first three seemed to have only one representative: balanced flow Tang Chen, burst flow Tang Hao, and power flow Tang Ba.
Although the number of people adding new attributes was the largest, including disciples who had not yet broken through to Title Douluo, many also chose this path.
But their strength was the weakest, and none of them could reach Super Douluo.
Looking at his son's constantly frowning, extremely tangled appearance, Tang Hao couldn't help but feel a pang of bitterness in his heart.
Knowing that his older brother had broken through to Super Douluo, his Cultivation had reached level ninety-six, and all Five Great Elders had also entered the Title Douluo rank.
Also, he had successfully obtained the Mysterious Heaven Skill, taking the Sect's strength to the next level, he should have been happy.
But people are like this, fickle, always wanting more, never satisfied.
A Sect with seven Titled Douluos seemed powerful, but it lacked one most crucial thing to truly prosper.
That was a figure with truly peerless talent who could carry the Sect, just like the first Sect Master Tang Chen.
Seven Title Douluos were enough to make Clear Sky the number one Sect.
But without a powerhouse at the Ultimate level, wanting to confront Spirit Hall and Kaiyuan Sect was almost like a foolish dream.
Originally, Tang San was qualified to become that person who led the Sect to great prosperity. His twin spirits talent was no weaker than Bibi Dong's, and he would surely be able to lead the way as long as he grew up.
Unfortunately, a rift had developed between father and son.
Who would have thought that the Life Attribute actually hid such a secret, Ten Strongest of Myriad Realms, possessing the qualifications to become a god.
Had he known this, he wouldn't have done that thing back then, or he would have used a more tactful way to plot Tang San's Cultivation Methods and Martial Skills.
Now it was good, watching his son's Spirit being crippled, plus the hatred for his mother, such a huge knot in his heart was almost impossible to untie.
On this side, Bing Qing Yu Jie was racking her brains.
On the other side, in Star Dou Great Forest, Nangong Lingyun was also making intensive preparations.
Expanding his Mental Domain to the Ultimate, searching for Spirit Beasts with suitable attributes and age range.
San Zi's Blue Silver Emperor provided him with hundreds of millions of huge pleasure points. Many spirit rings, Spirit Bones, including Chang Sheng Jue and Xuanwu True Skill, came from this.
Clear Sky Hammer's potential was not as good as the First Martial Soul, but its strength in the original book was even stronger.
There was a lot of room to trick, and as long as he succeeded, the harvest should be no less impressive.
However, with Tang Hao watching him closely, Bing Qing Yu Jie himself was already like a frightened bird, extremely vigilant about this.
The difficulty of tricking the Hammer was probably many times greater than that of the Grass, and even he had to go all out.
Nangong Lingyun's idea was very simple.
Use Qin Feng's identity and Feixian Token to cooperate, tricking Tang San into adding new attributes to Clear Sky Hammer.
The things that were forcibly added later, whether it was power or effect, were completely not in the same league as innate abilities.
Otherwise, the disciples of the great Sects would have sets of Time Space, Creation Destruction long ago.
As for the Elders of Clear Sky Sect,
Some were because of parental inheritance, and the Spirit itself came with a little bit of other attributes, which was equivalent to a mutation, but it was not obvious.
Some were because their own abilities were insufficient, so they were playing to their strengths and avoiding their weaknesses.
There were a total of four feasible routes.
Ultimate burst required a full set of Spirit Bones, which was basically ruled out for most people from birth, even for the disciples of Upper Three Sects.
The balanced flow could not be achieved without someone with amazing talent.
Power, speed, defense, attack, control, and other aspects were developed in an all-round way. Except for Tang Chen, who created his own Spirit Ability as easily as eating and drinking, others would definitely become neither fish nor fowl, and eventually be useless in everything.
As for absolute power…
Clear Sky Hammer was too heavy, and it was extremely difficult to wield it.
In the original book, after Tang San became a Spirit Elder, he still couldn't use the Second Martial Soul without a spirit ring freely. He had to rest for half an hour after forging three times.
When he first awakened, it was even extremely difficult to summon it, and it would instantly drain his spirit power.
You should know that he had Cultivation Mysterious Jade Hand and Mysterious Heaven Skill, which showed how exaggerated it was.
If according to the attribute compatibility theory, all power was strengthened,
Then, while the Spirit Master was becoming stronger, the Spirit was also becoming heavier at the same time. No matter how many spirit rings he had, it would always be stronger than you at that time, unless he cheated, it was impossible to catch up.
With three out of four gone, the seemingly weakest route of making up for shortcomings became the mainstream.
And the focus of strengthening the spirit ring was placed on adding new attributes.
After adding the spirit ring, the main direction of the Spirit's development was that the extra attributes were becoming stronger, and the weight increase was not fast.
When the Spirit Master's strength increased to the point where he could perfectly control his Spirit, he could barely match it by continuing to develop power.
However, the problem of the Spirit being too heavy did not exist at all for Tang San.
Even at this stage, he still couldn't perfectly control Clear Sky Hammer.
The reason was very simple. If twin spirits truly wanted to Cultivation to the Ultimate, they had to be equipped with a full set of Spirit Bones like the Ultimate flow, and the higher the quality, the better.
Six Spirit Bones plus so many high-level spirit rings, the control would become very simple at that time.
Being able to follow the route of absolute power and Ultimate burst like in the original book but not doing so was the first step in the plan to trick him.
Secondly, there was the conflict between twin spirits.
Tang San had already decided that the Blue Silver Emperor would add Life-related spirit rings in the future, and he wouldn't even consider other options.
Since that was the case, then arrange it for Clear Sky Hammer.
Two Spirits, but sharing the same set of spirit power, unless they were Yin-Yang like Nangong Lingyun, they would definitely be affected.
"Haha, I finally found it."
After a full two days, in the ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast area of Star Dou Great Forest, Nangong Lingyun finally found a Spirit Beast that he liked.
There were several others before, but none of them were as perfect as this one.
An eight-thousand-two-hundred-year-old Dark Tiger,
One of the many bloodline branches of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger.
The physique looked fairly strong, but the main attribute was darkness degenerated by Evil, and there was some power, but it was not outstanding.
Among the top Spirit Beasts, it was definitely qualified to compete for the weakest.
