"I am actually very confused. Even though I am more familiar with you, you surprisingly didn't come with me to the Body Sect but chose Beibei and Tang Ya, whom you just met, and joined the Tang Sect."
Wang Lin was truly confused.
Although he hadn't known Huo Yuhao for long, it had been four days at least.
Beibei and Tang Ya had known him for less than four hours.
Yet Huo Yuhao chose to join the Tang Sect instead of going to the Body Sect with him.
Not to mention that during the past four days, he had been taking care of Huo Yuhao.
"I don't know either. Maybe it's because my mother told me stories about the legends of the Tang Sect since I was young."
Huo Yuhao scratched his head; he had always yearned for the Tang Sect in his heart.
"Is that so?"
Wang Lin frowned slightly upon hearing this.
It was the same sentence again; the Tang Sect had declined long ago, so where did Huo Yuhao's mother learn about the legends of the Tang Sect!?
"Is there a problem, Brother Lin?"
Huo Yuhao clearly didn't understand why Wang Lin was asking him this kind of question.
"It's nothing, just asking casually."
Wang Lin shook his head, obviously not wanting to say anything more.
He had only known Huo Yuhao for four days, and he didn't want to interfere too much with Huo Yuhao's choices.
Huo Yuhao's insistence on joining the Tang Sect was his own choice, and he would have to bear whatever consequences came with it.
Wang Lin had also given Huo Yuhao other options; being able to do this much, Wang Lin had already done his utmost.
They did not wait in place for too long.
Soon, Beibei and Tang Ya returned within the range of Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Detection.
From the small, dark purple soul beast that had fallen unconscious and was still covered in electric arcs in Beibei's hand, and the Mandala Snake corpse Tang Ya was holding, it was clear they had eventually caught up with that soul beast.
"Little Brother Wang, although this Purple Spirit Bei is indeed of the mental attribute, its cultivation has exceeded a thousand years, so it isn't suitable for you to absorb."
Upon seeing Wang Lin, Beibei spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness.
"Exceeded a thousand years?"
Wang Lin looked at the Purple Spirit Bei in Beibei's hand and couldn't help but speak.
"Yes, it just broke through. It was in need of energy, otherwise how would this beast dare to come and steal a corpse."
Tang Ya nodded, and after speaking, she looked fiercely at the Purple Spirit Bei in Beibei's hand.
"If it just broke through, then I should be able to absorb it."
Wang Lin nodded upon hearing this.
One must know that the limitations of a soul ring on a Soul Master are two points: one is physical fitness, and the second is mental pressure.
As a transmigrator and a mental attribute Soul Master, Wang Lin's mental power was naturally far stronger than ordinary Soul Masters.
As for physical fitness, under his specific training, it was naturally also stronger than ordinary Soul Masters.
So absorbing a thousand-year soul ring should not be a problem; his first soul ring was already absorbed beyond the limit.
"Are you really going to absorb it!?"
Beibei looked at Wang Lin with a frown.
As a descendant of Grandmaster Yu, he actually didn't quite believe in his ancestor's theory on soul ring limits.
With ten thousand years of development, Yu Xiaogang's set of optimal soul ring configurations had long become like flatulence.
The age limit of a soul ring that a Soul Master can absorb has never been a specific number, but is linked to the Soul Master's physical fitness and mental endurance.
If you ask a Soul Scholar who has been underfed since childhood and has a frail body to absorb a four-hundred-year soul ring, they would be burst by the power within the soul ring in minutes.
"Don't worry, I can absorb it. I wouldn't joke with my own life."
Wang Lin nodded.
Beibei didn't say much more and handed the unconscious Purple Spirit Bei to Wang Lin.
Geniuses who absorbed rings beyond their level were not nonexistent; Shrek Academy had a monster who absorbed a hundred-thousand-year soul ring at their seventh ring.
Wang Lin took the Purple Spirit Bei and didn't waste words.
A light flashed in his gray eyes.
His condensed, materialized Telekinesis transformed into a sharp blade and pierced directly through the Purple Spirit Bei's eye socket.
Pfft!
Blood and brain matter shot out from the Purple Spirit Bei's eyeball.
A purple soul ring, still carrying traces of yellow light, slowly rose from the corpse of the Purple Spirit Bei, which had passed away very peacefully.
Wang Lin drew the soul ring over and looked at Beibei.
"If you want to, then absorb it. It just so happens Xiaoya also needs to absorb her soul ring. Yuhao and I will protect you both!"
Beibei said.
Wang Lin was not a member of the Tang Sect, so he naturally had no right to control Wang Lin's decisions.
Moreover, whether Wang Lin succeeded or failed in absorbing this soul ring, they could go back directly afterward without needing to continue wasting time in the Star Dou Forest.
As Beibei's voice fell, Tang Ya had already put down the Mandala Snake corpse in her hand.
A glistening blue brilliance lit up on her right hand.
She lifted her pale hand lightly and tapped on the purple soul ring above the Mandala Snake corpse.
Immediately, the purple soul ring was attracted by the blue light on her hand.
Tang Ya began to concentrate on absorbing the soul ring in her hand.
"Okay!"
Wang Lin nodded and also drew the soul ring over.
He glanced at Tang Ya and immediately sat cross-legged while praying in his heart.
As long as it's not a passive amplification soul skill, any soul skill will do!
Thinking this, invisible spiritual fluctuations surged from Wang Lin's body.
The purple soul ring in his hand also floated slowly, drifting to the top of Wang Lin's head and slowly slipping down.
It surrounded Wang Lin and then began to contract abruptly.
A violent energy immediately surged into Wang Lin's body along with the soul ring, just like magma.
It spread rapidly toward his internal organs along his meridians, and intense pain instantly spread throughout his body.
Wang Lin had absorbed a soul ring before and was prepared for this.
He remained clear-headed, allowing the intense pain to assault his whole body.
A painfully struggling spiritual fluctuation also drilled out from the soul ring and slammed into Wang Lin's spiritual sea.
Bang!
A dull thud sounded within Wang Lin's body.
That painfully struggling spiritual fluctuation slammed into the solid barrier outside Wang Lin's spiritual sea and shattered with a bang.
The solid barrier merely trembled slightly, completely undamaged.
Outside, the thousand-year purple soul ring floating around Wang Lin shone with a faint light, but the patterns on the soul ring actually began to slowly fade.
Beibei looked at this scene in confusion.
Huo Yuhao, however, did not see anything strange; after all, he had never seen anyone else absorb a soul ring.
"Strange!"
The Skydream Ice Silkworm's voice suddenly rang out in Huo Yuhao's mind.
"What's wrong, Brother Tianmeng?"
"This kid's martial soul is very strange; he probably won't get a soul skill from absorbing this soul ring!"
The Skydream Ice Silkworm's puzzled voice rang out.
"Won't have a soul skill!?"
Huo Yuhao was somewhat bewildered upon hearing this; he clearly didn't understand the Skydream Ice Silkworm's meaning.
Unfortunately, the Skydream Ice Silkworm did not explain further.
After saying that one sentence, it fell into a deep sleep again.
Seeing that the Skydream Ice Silkworm was no longer paying attention to him, Huo Yuhao came back to his senses and continued to observe Wang Lin and Tang Ya absorbing their soul rings.
He did not notice that at this moment, the gray speck of light in his spiritual sea was flickering gently.
Even the Skydream Ice Silkworm had not noticed it.
An unknown amount of time passed.
No more energy surged into his body, and that thousand-year soul ring was successfully absorbed into Wang Lin's body.
