At this moment, Tang San was in high spirits, already able to foresee that with the absorption of Spirit Rings, his strength would advance by leaps and bounds.
"Xiao Wu, the journey to Poseidon Island made me aware of the existence of Gods. From that moment on, becoming a God has been my goal.
As long as we become Deities, we will surely be able to make humans and Spirit Beasts coexist harmoniously, fundamentally solving the problem of hunting Spirit Beasts!"
Tang San said with deep emotion.
"Third Brother, I believe in you!" Xiao Wu's heart stirred slightly.
With Tang San's talent, perhaps he truly could obtain a Godhood Inheritance and then become a God.
But as soon as this thought arose, Xiao Wu's heart grew uneasy again.
From the time Tang San cultivated to Soul Expert, he had begun encountering all sorts of mishaps.
What Xiao Wu worried about most was that Tang San might be targeted by Evil Soul Masters again at any time.
She couldn't place all her hopes on Tang San.
Coming to the human world, hiding in plain sight, under the protection of the Clear Sky Sect, she had smoothly cultivated to Soul Douluo.
From here on, she could only take things one step at a time.
Tang Hao's ill intentions—she knew them all too clearly.
Xiao Wu steeled her heart.
After the two rested, they once again began searching for suitable Spirit Beasts.
In the blink of an eye, several days passed. The second Spirit Ring on Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer had also been successfully attached, and his Soul Power Level had advanced to level eighty-nine.
By now, Xiao Wu had become thoroughly cautious.
Because as far as she knew, the Blue Silver Emperor's Sacrifice occurred when Tang Hao was at level eighty-nine.
But what struck her as strange was that no abnormalities had appeared throughout the entire Star Dou Great Forest.
Da Ming concealed his form and went to investigate the nearby Spirit Hall Branch, but he didn't detect any movements either.
This puzzled Xiao Wu greatly. Could it be that Tang Hao hadn't exposed her identity?
From Tang Hao making her reveal her identity to Tang San, to having the two of them come together to the Star Dou Great Forest, his purpose was very clear.
He absolutely could not have failed to expose her identity.
But why hadn't the Spirit Hall taken any action?
Amid such doubts, several more days passed. Tang San absorbed another Spirit Ring, and his Soul Power Level reached level ninety.
He could absorb a Spirit Ring at any time and become a true Titled Douluo.
Even at this point, there was still no movement from the Spirit Hall's powerhouses.
This time, not only was Xiao Wu puzzled, but Tang Hao was even more perplexed.
Tang Xiao had said that Bibi Dong only had seven Spirit Rings and still needed two more to become a Dual Spirit Titled Douluo.
Upon receiving news of a 100,000-Year Soul Beast, she would surely be unable to restrain herself.
Why was there no action at all this time?
On this day, Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and the Second Elder returned from the Star Dou Great Forest to the supply town.
They gathered once again with Bai He and Yu Xiaogang to discuss.
"Those two 100,000-Year Soul Beasts are no longer in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, and we haven't found them anywhere else either!"
Tang Xiao said helplessly.
During the last battle with Bibi Dong, he had considered waiting until Tang San became a Titled Douluo to come find these two 100,000-Year Soul Beasts and hunt them.
After Tang San and Xiao Wu went to absorb Spirit Rings, he, Tang Hao, and the Second Elder had split up to search for traces of the 100,000-Year Soul Beasts.
Unfortunately, they hadn't found any up until now.
"Hao brother, Grandmaster, what do you think? Xiao San is already at level ninety. Should we continue searching or let Xiao San absorb other Spirit Beasts?"
Tang Xiao couldn't make up his mind.
Tang Hao had prepared Xiao Wu as Tang San's ninth spirit ring, but the Spirit Hall had remained inactive, making him feel uneasy.
If he directly killed Xiao Wu, Tang San would definitely not agree.
Moreover, doing so would cast doubt on his and A Yin's love.
Tang Hao was unwilling to expose his own sinister and shameless side.
After all, Tang Xiao, Yu Xiaogang, and others believed that A Yin had sacrificed herself to him due to the Spirit Hall's coercion.
"Let's keep searching. The ninth spirit ring is too important. If it's a 100,000-year spirit ring, there will also be a 100,000-year soul bone, which could raise Xiao San's soul power level to at least level ninety-three!"
Tang Hao said.
He actually wanted to wait for the Spirit Hall's move.
Even now, he was unwilling to believe that Bibi Dong would remain indifferent to a 100,000-year spirit beast.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang frowned.
"Your Eminences, forgive my bluntness. In the past, a 100,000-year spirit ring and 100,000-year soul bone would indeed be worth spending time to search for.
But in today's Spirit Master World, the most precious treasure is godhood inheritance, and what the Clear Sky Sect needs is also godhood inheritance.
Apart from godhood inheritance, nothing should delay Xiao San's cultivation progress!"
Yu Xiaogang said calmly.
It must be said that Yu Xiaogang's mind was filled with a wealth of martial soul cultivation knowledge. Combined with the fact that both Bibi Dong and the Evil Soul Masters had obtained godhood inheritance, he had seen the key point and judged what was truly most important.
Tang Hao frowned deeply, feeling very unwilling.
"Three days. Give me three more days. If there is no trace of any 100,000-year spirit beast within three days, we will immediately find a suitable spirit ring for Xiao San to absorb!"
Tang Hao said through gritted teeth.
"Alright, we'll search with all our might for three days!"
Tang Xiao decisively agreed.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang did not argue further. What he most wanted to see was Tang San immediately becoming a Titled Douluo, further enhancing his physical constitution, and continuing to add spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer to increase his soul power.
Only when he reached his limit should he seek godhood inheritance.
That was what should be done.
Three days—then wait three more days!
Once the decision was made, the group immediately left the supply town to begin their search.
Apart from Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, and the Second Elder, Bai He also parted ways with them and ventured deep into the Star Dou Great Forest.
However, Bai He was not searching for a 100,000-year spirit beast.
He went to another location to find the message left for him by Tang Bo.
Tang Bo was well aware of Tang Hao's plan, but its failure was unexpected to him.
Now there was only one choice: to take action himself and ultimately force Xiao Wu to sacrifice.
But doing so carried too great a risk, as the Evil Soul Masters and Bibi Dong were sure to be monitoring the Star Dou Great Forest.
His intervention would mean exposure.
Was it worth exposing an identity hidden for over twenty years just for Tang San to absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring?
In the end, Tang Bo decided to wait and see.
It would be foolish for him to expose himself before the Evil Soul Masters had even revealed themselves.
Xiao Wu, this 100,000-year spirit beast, wouldn't run away. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. Tang San still had many spirit rings left to attach—there was no need to rush.
Thus, Bai He received the old sect master's decision: to have Tang San absorb a spirit ring as soon as possible and become a Titled Douluo.
"It seems the old sect master also hasn't found those two 100,000-year spirit beasts. Could they have left the Star Dou Great Forest?"
Bai He was equally unwilling to accept this.
However, since even the old sect master hidden in the shadows could not be found, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were certainly returning empty-handed as well.
They could only let Tang San absorb a Spirit Beast of around ninety thousand years for now.
Grandmaster was right; even a 100,000 Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone shouldn't waste Xiao San's time.
Godhood Inheritance was what truly mattered.
He hoped that once Xiao San stepped into the realm of a Titled Douluo, he would find the Godhood Inheritance as soon as possible.
Bai He could only console himself in this way.
