The Mountain-like Giant Elephant's will to survive was strong.
That was good.
"Alright, let me feed you something good to increase your lifespan."
Tang Lan took out the Ten-Thousand Year Snow Silkworm and fed it to the Mountain-like Giant Elephant.
"Delicious!" The Mountain-like Giant Elephant exclaimed excitedly. "I want more! Give me more!"
Tang Lan continued to feed it until its lifespan reached 4799 years.
— Jing Ling, as an agility-attack type, naturally had a higher limit than a support type.
Tang Lan stopped.
But the Mountain-like Giant Elephant still wasn't satisfied, and it nudged against Tang Lan, wanting another bite.
"If you eat any more, I won't be able to save you," Tang Lan warned.
The Mountain-like Giant Elephant finally gave up.
"I'm going to start guiding your soul to condense the Soul Imprint. You need to relax and cooperate with me."
"I will merge your innate talent with the Soul Imprint."
"The entire process must be with your consent, only then can I help you establish a contract."
"Do you understand?"
The Mountain-like Giant Elephant nodded with great effort.
It then collapsed directly onto the ground, sprawling out like a salted fish.
It glanced sideways at Tang Lan.
"Is this relaxed enough?"
A slight smile played on Tang Lan's lips.
This Mountain-like Giant Elephant, it's quite a character, isn't it? And Jing Ling is a closet show-off.
These two, if they get along in the future, it's bound to be interesting.
As they were talking.
Jing Ling, with Ning Fengzhi's assistance, had also finished absorbing the whale gelatin.
He stood before Tang Lan.
"It might hurt a little when you insert it, bear with it," Tang Lan instructed.
Jing Ling nodded firmly.
Tang Lan took a deep breath.
He activated the Soul Spirit Domain's third evolved ability – Immortal and Undying!
His entire person vanished, merging with the Soul Spirit Domain.
His soul power probed into the Mountain-like Giant Elephant's spiritual world.
Everything went smoothly,
Found it easily, its Soul Imprint and Spiritual Origin.
Just like the Mountain-like Giant Elephant's main body, it was lying there like a salted fish, completely relaxed.
It even sensed Tang Lan and smiled at him.
Truly relaxed.
Tang Lan guided its Spiritual Origin, Soul Imprint, and a portion of its most refined soul power.
Along with the mysterious energy contained within its innate bloodline.
He melded everything together, condensing them into a Soul Spirit.
The Purple-Gold Pupil's god-like perspective allowed him to control every detail.
A quarter of an hour later.
A golden light suddenly flared on the Mountain-like Giant Elephant, surging forward from its tail, leaving withering and darkness in its wake.
The advancing golden light grew ever more dazzling.
It finally condensed at the head of the Mountain-like Giant Elephant, forming a golden sphere of light.
A low, drawn-out incantation echoed within the Soul Spirit's domain.
The chanting was clear, yet no one could understand it.
Those harsh pronunciations seemed capable of shaking heaven and earth.
A golden six-pointed star was drawn, encompassing Jing Ling and the Mountain-like Giant Elephant.
"Now!"
Tang Lan used his mental link to guide the man and the beast.
"Follow me, and recite the Soul Spirit Equality Contract!"
Jing Ling placed his palm on the golden orb and began to chant strange syllables.
The gray Mountain-like Giant Elephant also emitted a sound resembling a whimper.
The six-pointed star beneath their feet became even brighter!
Strange symbols rose up, swirling around the man and the beast.
They radiated intense spiritual and soul power fluctuations.
The Mountain-like Giant Elephant's aura was steadily weakening.
Jing Ling's aura was steadily climbing.
His expression was also gradually becoming distorted.
Visible cracks were spreading across his body – he was about to explode.
Tang Lan dispelled Immortal and Undying, returning to his normal state.
He used his Life Soul Blue Silver Emperor to envelop Jing Ling, absorbing the overflowing energy. Then, he activated the Life Soul Heart, releasing only life force to repair the cracks on Jing Ling's body.
He maintained this extreme state, ensuring Jing Ling wouldn't die.
As for what came next…
The Soul Spirit's equal contract was already complete.
It all depended on whether this man and this beast truly acknowledged each other.
Any dissent would cause the ritual to fail.
At this moment, the importance of prior communication was evident — the Mountain-like Giant Elephant showed no signs of resistance.
Its nature was already lazy, yet it was hunted every day.
Now that it could finally lie down and relax, how could it give up this chance? Not to mention, Jing Ling was now its only chance of survival.
It was lying down and letting things happen.
Not only was it not resisting, but it was also actively cooperating!
Jing Ling's situation was even simpler — he blindly trusted Tang Lan and that was all that mattered.
Furthermore, Title Douluo Gu Rong was there to protect them.
Life was no longer in danger.
Plus, with the temptation of "a page in the family tree," he was completely invested!
It was practically perfect timing, the right place, and the right people.
After more than ten minutes,
all the symbols abruptly stopped. The Mountain-like Giant Elephant's body went limp, collapsing completely within the star formation.
All signs of life vanished.
All the symbols, like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, surged into Jing Ling's body.
His Martial Soul, a skeleton, automatically activated, and two yellow Soul Rings appeared.
After a brief pause,
a purple Soul Ring, slightly larger than the others, slowly condensed.
"Roar——"
A familiar elephant's roar came from Jing Ling's mouth, and the purple Soul Ring beneath his feet shone brightly, a purple shadow leaping from his chest.
It landed on the ground, condensing into the Mountain-like Giant Elephant.
Unlike its previous near-death state, it was now brimming with energy, spirit, and vitality, its purple form even emitting a faint golden glow.
Except for its somewhat ethereal appearance, not like a solid entity…
It was practically indistinguishable from a living creature.
The Mountain-like Giant Elephant was very excited, stomping its feet, swishing its trunk, and jumping around.
Although its two-meter size wasn't large, it could still make some noise.
"This Soul Spirit has a physical form?" Oscar asked, shocked. "Doesn't that mean it can also fight?"
Tang Lan chuckled.
He playfully pointed at Gu Rong.
"Mountain-like Giant Elephant, use Tackle!"
Unexpectedly...
This Mountain-like Giant Elephant was also a bit of a simpleton.
It actually charged at Gu Rong!
Mid-charge, purple light flashed across its body, and its two-meter frame swelled to nearly thirty meters, bearing down on Gu Rong like a small mountain!
Gu Rong, wanting to test its strength, didn't use his Martial Soul.
He met the Mountain-like Giant Elephant with a single hand.
"Bang——"
A muffled sound.
The mountain-like Giant Elephant, as tall as a small hill, was swatted away, crashing to the ground in a daze.
It didn't quite understand.
How could such a small thing have sent it flying?
If it couldn't understand, then it simply wouldn't think about it!
It lay down on the ground, completely giving up.
"Holy crap!" Jing Ling exclaimed, "It consumed my soul power and used a soul skill?"
This single sentence revealed so much information.
—The Soul Spirit possesses actual combat power! —The Soul Spirit can utilize the host's soul power! —The Soul Spirit can use its own soul skills!
——A Soul Spirit also possesses the intelligence of its host!
"Feel—"
"Feel—"
"Feel—"
Everyone who realized what was happening couldn't help but gasp in a breath of cold air!
This wasn't just modifying a Soul Ring?
It was an epic enhancement!
"Huh?" Jing Ling exclaimed again, "It told me that it also comes with a Soul Skill, which it can grant me the next time I need a Soul Ring?"
Huh?!
The others instinctively turned to Tang Lan, waiting for an explanation.
"It's my first time trying this too, why are you all looking at me?"
Tang Lan shrugged.
"From what I can see now, a thousand-year Soul Spirit can be used as two Soul Rings."
"When it comes to the Soul Spirit of a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast, maybe it can provide three or four Soul Skills?"
Uh. That sums it up nicely.
However, Ning Fengzhi disagreed!
