"The age of a spirit ring is actually not the most important thing."
"The most important thing is the Spirit Ability!"
Bibi Dong said slowly.
As the successor of the Rakshasa God, Bibi Dong knew that the age of a spirit ring could actually be increased.
Compared to the age of a spirit ring, which can be improved...
A Spirit Ability cannot be changed.
Therefore, the Spirit Ability is naturally more important!
"Spirit Ability..."
"I wonder what kind of Spirit Beasts this Lin Hanjue will hunt and what spirit rings he will absorb."
"And in the end, what his three Spirit Abilities will be."
Looking at the notebook where content continued to emerge, Xie Yue couldn't help but mutter to himself.
[On the way, I learned the name of this Vice Dean. He is called Long Cheng Zong. His Spirit is the Four-Winged Dragon Eagle, and his cultivation is at the level of a rank ninety-two Titled Heavenly Sovereign, with the title 'dragon eagle'!]
[In the current Sun Moon Empire, the nomenclature for the Spirit Master system is slightly different from the Douluo Continent ten thousand years later.]
[While everything from Spirit Scholar to Spirit Saint remains the same, after rank eighty, the Sun Moon Empire refers to Spirit Masters as Soul Heavenly Sovereigns, meaning they can be revered throughout the World.]
[And after breaking through rank ninety, one is qualified to possess a title, becoming a World-shaking, unique Titled Heavenly Sovereign from then on!]
[Setting off from the Sun Moon Imperial City, I followed Vice Dean Long Cheng Zong to the Star Dou Great Forest.]
[Before entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Vice Dean Long Cheng Zong also asked me what kind of Spirit Beasts I wanted to hunt for my three spirit rings.]
[However, I was somewhat stunned.]
[Because after arriving at the Star Dou Great Forest, I felt a mysterious sense of guidance, as if fate itself were guiding me, leading me in a certain direction.]
"A mysterious guidance of fate?"
"You must be joking!"
"How could such a thing exist in this World!"
Finding that Lin Hanjue claimed to have felt the guidance of fate before entering the Star Dou Great Forest in the diary, Yan's eyes suddenly widened as if he had seen a ghost.
He simply couldn't believe that such a thing existed in this World.
"I've never heard of a Spirit that possesses the legendary attribute of Fate!"
Xie Yue furrowed his brows, but felt it wasn't necessarily impossible.
"It's not necessarily impossible!"
"This Lin Hanjue's Double Pupil Martial Soul has an innate spirit power as high as rank thirty. To some extent, it even surpasses the rank twenty innate spirit power of God-bestowed Spirits."
"Perhaps he really does have the favor of the heavens!"
"We'll know if we keep reading!"
Hu Liena took a deep breath and said.
However, in her heart, she was also inclined to believe it.
After all, this Lin Hanjue was a madman who dared to declare war on the gods and wanted to make this World a place with no gods!
Without a certain level of confidence, one wouldn't dare to make such wild claims!
["Dean Long, I don't know what Spirit Beast to hunt yet. Can we go in and look around first?"]
[At that time, I couldn't help but hesitate and could only say that.]
["Alright!"]
[Long Cheng Zong didn't think too much of it. Stroking the beard under his chin, he agreed.]
[Then, we entered the Star Dou Great Forest together.]
[Along the way, following the guidance of fate, I led Long Cheng Zong through the Star Dou Great Forest. Eventually, we found a valley where the sky was covered in dark clouds, thunder roared from time to time, and lightning struck everywhere.]
[On the cliff wall of this valley, I saw a massive bird's nest.]
[In the nest rested an avian Spirit Beast. Its entire body was a deep blue, seemingly wrapped in lightning. Its claws were sharp, its head was majestic, and it had a pair of feather crests that looked like dragon horns.]
(Thunderbird · Concept Art)
["This is a Thousand Year Thunderbird!"]
[Seeing this avian Spirit Beast, Long Cheng Zong couldn't help but be shocked.]
[Because the Thunderbird is one of the top lightning-attribute Spirit Beasts. It can be said to stand at the top of the Spirit Beast food chain, not inferior at all to the legendary Titan Giant Ape, Dark Golden Dreadclaw Bear, or Three-Headed Hellhound.]
["Dean Long, I want to hunt this Thousand Year Thunderbird!"]
[Because I felt that the goal pointed to by the mysterious guidance of fate was this Thousand Year Thunderbird, I immediately made my decision. I pointed at the Thunderbird and asked Long Cheng Zong to help me hunt it.]
[To this, Long Cheng Zong also agreed. After summoning his Four-Winged Dragon Eagle Spirit for possession, nine spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, five black, and one red—instantly rose from beneath his feet, encircling his body.]
"What! How is it possible for this Long Cheng Zong's second spirit ring to be a thousand-year spirit ring!"
Discovering the content shown in the diary, which indicated that Long Cheng Zong's spirit ring configuration was one yellow, two purple, five black, and one red—starting from the second ring as a thousand-year spirit ring.
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan couldn't help but be horrified, feeling that it completely exceeded his understanding.
One must know that in the currently recognized best spirit ring configuration on the Douluo Continent, the second spirit ring cannot exceed a thousand years!
"Could this be brought about by that Sun Moon Empire's 658th Set of Basic Spirit Master Cultivation Methods?"
Xie Yue's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but speak excitedly.
If that's the case, then their Spirit Hall could also produce batches of geniuses with thousand-year second spirit rings in the future!
"It's possible..."
Bibi Dong's brows were tightly furrowed as she spoke slowly.
"However, we need to see more for the specific situation."
[After Long Cheng Zong took action, he quickly dealt a heavy blow to this Thousand Year Thunderbird, leaving it dying as it fell to the ground.]
["Come! Give this Thousand Year Thunderbird the final blow!"]
[After severely wounding the Thunderbird, Long Cheng Zong landed on the ground, took out a soul tool gun, and handed it to me.]
[A soul tool gun is an offensive spirit tool. It allows a Spirit Master to fire attacks comparable to the power of top-tier spirit power without needing to use Spirit Abilities, simply by channeling spirit power.]
[I took the soul tool gun, aimed the muzzle at the head of the Thousand Year Thunderbird, and funneled the spirit power from my body into the gun.]
[In an instant, the muzzle of the soul tool gun burst with a dazzling light.]
[Immediately after, an energy cannon fired with a "bang!", directly hitting the head of the Thousand Year Thunderbird and killing the already heavily wounded and dying creature.]
[Soon, a purple thousand-year spirit ring emerged from the Thunderbird's corpse.]
[Afterward, under Long Cheng Zong's instruction, I sat cross-legged beside the Thunderbird's corpse, eyes tightly closed, and began to circulate the spirit power in my body according to the spirit power execution route of the Basic Spirit Master Cultivation Method.]
[The next moment, the Thunderbird's thousand-year spirit ring flew over and settled onto my body.]
[Perhaps it was because of my rank thirty innate spirit power.]
[Before long, I successfully absorbed and refined this thousand-year spirit ring.]
[But just then, an incredibly dense mass of spirit power suddenly released from the spirit ring and unexpectedly merged into the two scapulae on my back.]
[This caused me to feel a sudden sharp pain in my back, as if something were expanding and pushing up the flesh and blood there.]
[But soon, the sharp pain was released, giving a sensation like breaking out of a cage.]
[I snapped my eyes open and turned my head to look at my back, only to be shocked by what I saw.]
[A pair of skeletal wings, crystal clear like blue crystal and covered in lightning patterns, had actually unfolded from my back!]
