  Xiao Wu said:

  “Then let’s hurry up and look for spirit rings that fit you.”

  Tang San nodded:

  “That’s easy. I think I could restore the Blue Silver Emperor’s spirit rings in at most three days. After reaching Title Douluo level strength, I truly understand how enormous an advantage twin spirits are. It’s not easy for Title Douluo to hunt hundred thousand year spirit beasts, after all, they’re too few. But killing the first quality spirit beast is still too simple. Even if ordinary Title Douluo can kill one it’s useless to them, their spirit rings are filled. But I’m different. Right now I still lack more than ten spirit rings, if I can kill spirit beasts on the same level of the Pit Spider Emperor, I will be a lot stronger than ordinary Title Douluo. Even more importantly, it’s far easier for me to find the spirit beasts I need in the forest than common spirit masters, the Blue Silver Domain can easily find them for me. Both saving time, and finding the best.”

  Indeed, if it was under ordinary circumstances, finding a few spirit rings of the same type of high level spirit beasts might require a very long time, but the Blue Silver Domain had eyes everywhere in this Sunset Forest, making this process a lot easier.

  Over the next three days, Tang San relied on the Blue Silver Domain and his boundless mental strength, and sure enough found the other four spirit rings he needed among the abundant spirit beasts in the Sunset Forest, making up the nine spirit rings of the Blue Silver Emperor, and the whole process was completely smooth. At the same time, he also helped Xiao Wu find a spirit ring that suited her.

  Even though there weren’t a lot of spirit beasts with over fifty thousand years of cultivation, they absolutely weren’t as rare as hundred thousand year spirit beasts. Only, after Tang San’s looting this time, almost half the fifty thousand year or higher spirit beasts in the Sunset Forest were eradicated. Besides recovering the nine rings of the Blue Silver Emperor, his Clear Sky Hammer also absorbed two spirit rings. All spirit rings were fifty thousand years or higher.

  The reason why he didn’t add any more spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer really wasn’t because there were no more fifty thousand year spirit beasts in the Sunset Forest, but rather because there weren’t any that suited the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Hammer was the strongest power attack type tool spirit, and also Tang San’s second spirit. Different from restoring the Blue Silver Emperor’s spirit rings, Tang San was extremely picky about each ring he added. Holding an attitude of rather going without than with a substandard choice, he absolutely wouldn’t act unless it was perfectly suitable.

  Only, even so, after Tang San’s two great spirits possessed twelve spirit rings, his body had also changed once again. With the aid of the Seagod’s Light, the amplified attributes naturally wouldn’t constitute any threat to his body. That golden light on his skin grew even more distinct, at night it would even make Tang San shine on his own. Tang San discovered through internal inspection that his bones had begun to show a faint golden color. He vaguely felt that, whether it was his skin or bones turning golden, it was extremely similar to the Invincible Golden Body he had with Xiao Wu’s spirit bone.

  Grandmaster once told him that the Invincible Golden Body also had limits, just that nobody had ever broken through this limit while facing Tang San. According to Tang San’s research, this limit might very well be the difference between rank ninety nine and rank one hundred. If it was rank one hundred, then the Invincible Golden Body’s “invincible” part might be useless.

  But these changes to his body undoubtedly surprised Tang San. He vaguely felt that if his skin, bones, muscles and blood all turned the same golden color as Invincible Golden Body, then his body really could become invincible. Attacks under the level of gods completely ineffective.

  At the same time, as his number of spirit rings grew, his spirit ring absorption speed also grew even faster. When he absorbed his twelfth spirit ring, he finished it in practically just a few breaths. Even though he never found a hundred thousand year existence in the Sunset Forest, Tang San was still satisfied. When his current spirit rings flashed, he might scare people flat.

  The Blue Silver Emperor spirit ring arrangement was as follows: black, black, black, black, red, black, red, red, red. The spirit ring effect of this first spirit even surpassed that of Bibi Dong’s second.

  Tang San still didn’t think he could defeat Bibi Dong, but blocking for a while shouldn’t be a problem. At least his current strength shouldn’t be less than rank ninety seven Sword Douluo Chen Xin. Of course, this was while including the Seagod Trident. After all, starting from rank ninety five, cultivation would double with each rank. That day he faced Bibi Dong and escaped in one piece, luck and Tang San’s special abilities as well as the domain effects of the two great beasts all played a major part.

  Only, Tang San still deeply felt the difficulty of raising his spirit power after reaching rank ninety. He had absorbed seven fifty thousand year spirit rings in succession, but his spirit power had only risen less than two ranks. At present his spirit power was rank ninety two, close to rank ninety three. It felt as though, if he didn’t absorb hundred thousand year spirit rings, even if he filled the Clear Sky Hammer’s spirit rings, it would be pretty good if his spirit power could reach rank ninety four. It was no wonder Title Douluo frequently took ten years to rise one rank.

  What pleased Tang San the most over these three days, was the harvest of spirit bones. The rate at which fifty thousand year spirit beasts produced spirit bones wasn’t low, and including the spirit beast for Xiao Wu’s spirit ring, altogether eight fifty thousand year spirit beasts produced two spirit bones. One of them was even a skull spirit bone that was extremely suited to Xiao Wu. Tang San immediately had her absorb it.

  And after Xiao Wu absorbed the spirit ring and spirit bone, her true spirit power level was also revealed, reaching rank seventy six. When she hadn’t received the rewards of a first rate trial, her spirit power rising to such a degree was in no way inferior to the Shrek Seven Devils. The current Xiao Wu had also finally risen to the Spirit Sage level. The spirit bone she absorbed was called the mind condensing charm skull. She got it from the sixty thousand year cultivation Three Eyed Charm Fox that produced her seventh spirit ring. After getting this spirit bone, Xiao Wu’s second spirit ability, Charm, was strengthened exponentially. Tang San once tried Xiao Wu’s charm attack with his mental strength held inside. He immediately judged that Xiao Wu’s charm effect was enough to influence all levels of spirit masters including Title Douluo, only the effect would be different with different levels of strength.

  Moreover, this spirit bone not only evolved Xiao Wu’s second spirit ability, it also gave her a practical ability. Adding in her Teleportation and Invincible Golden Body abilities, her abilities on the battlefield even surpassed the other Shrek Seven Devils, second only to Tang San.

  As for the other spirit bone, it didn’t suit either Tang San or Xiao Wu. Plus the one Tang San took from Ghost Douluo, he had now stored up two spirit bones. He was preparing to give both to his companions. One of two spirit bones suited Dai Mubai, and the other was even more suitble for Zhu Zhuqing. Even though spirit bones were good, they still had to be used by the people who needed them most for the best effect. As Grandmaster’s disciple, Tang San always remembered his teacher’s instructions.

  “Xiao Wu, look.”

  Standing in the forest, Tang San smiled slightly to Xiao Wu and pointed at himself. He was just releasing his Blue Silver Emperor spirit, and those alternating red and black nine spirit rings gave people a powerful visual impact.

  Just at this moment, a blue hazy radiance overflowed from within Tang San. Immediately after, a strange scene appeared. The nine spirit rings that could make any opponent feel fear suddenly changed. They changed color.

  Blue light flowed, and all his spirit rings suddenly turned white. Under Xiao Wu’s astonished gaze, they again turned yellow. Then purple, and finally black.

  The light appeared again.
The nine spirit rings were suddenly one less, and then a second, a third, until all the nine spirit rings were completely gone. But right now Tang San had clearly released his Blue Silver Emperor spirit.

  “Ge, how did you do it?”

  Xiao Wu looked astounded at Tang San. She discovered that even Tang San’s presence was quickly changing along with his spirit rings.

  Withdrawing the spirit, Tang San smiled:

  “This is an understanding I gained while searching the Star Dou Great Forest using the Blue Silver Domain. After these days of research, it has finally basically been formed. It doesn’t count as a domain ability, but it’s still a useful little trick. It can show excellent results with my mental strength control. I call it Camouflage. Through a change in the Blue Silver Domain, I can camouflage my spirit rings, change their colors, or even make it seem like I don’t have any spirit rings. It’s perfect along with restraining my presence. My current spirit rings are too eye catching, it’s much better with this camouflage ability. Unless it’s a power at Bibi Dong’s level, even Title Douluo won’t see through me.”

  Xiao Wu bounced into Tang San’s arms, her long slender legs wrapped around his waist, hanging on to his neck:

  “This ability is good, it can definitely avert a lot of trouble.”

  Tang San lowered his head and kissed Xiao Wu on the lips. She flushed, but didn’t resist. The two had been stuck together like glue over these days, experiencing wind and rain had brought their hearts even closer. Besides not taking the last step, their degree of intimacy was no less than a married couple. Of course, that last step wasn’t because of Xiao Wu’s refusal, it was Tang San who took the initiative to keep it for their wedding night. He loved Xiao Wu so much, he didn’t want his beloved to feel any regret.

  Just at this moment, suddenly, Tang San raised his head to look in the direction of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Xiao Wu turned at the same time, to see a golden beam of light soar towards the sky in that area. All the blue silver grass on the ground swayed softly at this moment, as if trembling with excitement.

  “Mom succeeded.”

  Tang San cheered ecstatically. Without letting Xiao Wu down, he held on to her butt with his left hand, grabbing the Seagod Trident with the right, and soared up, flying straight towards the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, regardless of whether this was a spirit beast forest or not. In the air, his powerful mental pressure directly spread out, suppressing any spirit beasts in the Sunset Forest from even thinking about doing anything to them.

  In the blink of an eye, they reached the mountain. And that golden light rising at the sky still didn’t halt.

  An intense familiar feeling gave Tang San an impulse to charge straight into that golden light. That light wasn’t the power of bright light, but rather an incredibly immense aura of life, formed from star specks of golden light.

  Just as Tang San arrived at the mountain top, before he could enter the valley, that immense golden pillar suddenly shattered, turning into specks of golden light scattering in the air and floating towards the Sunset Forest.

  As those golden specks of light passed by Tang San, he clearly sensed a huge aura of life saturate his body. In his mind, his mother’s gentle voice echoed,

  “My people, I thank you for selflessly devoting yourselves, letting me receive rebirth. This light of life is my gift to you, I hope you will soon evolve.”

  Xiao Wu didn’t hear the same voice, since she didn’t have any of the blood of the Blue Silver Emperor. But she was still attracted by the golden light covering the sky and the earth, and was dazzled.

  Once Xiao Wu was back to herself, Tang San held her waist with one hand, and the two fell from the sky like a giant bird. In midair, they could already see that charming woman born by the side of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

  Her body was completely enveloped in gentle light of life, dressed in a golden blue dress, her noble and elegant temperament setting off her unworldly countenance, her azure eyes as flawless as crystal. Golden ribbons were arranged all over her dress, and a faint delicate fragrance hung in the air.

  She looked to be in her thirties, her beautiful eyes gazing intently at that already lifeless figure in front of her. Her beauty was a clear cut contrast with that one armed and one legged man. But, her expression when she looked at him was filled with gentleness.

  “Ah…… Yin.”

  Tang Hao called out her name almost bitterly, feelings of shame making him bow his head, not quite daring to look at that beatuiful appearance.

  But at this moment, a gentle slender hand reached out to his stubbly face, raising his head again.

  A familiar fragrance, a fragrance remembered from decades ago instantly filled Tang Hao’s heart,

  “Hao, you are always my Hao. These years, even if I temporarily lost my life to save you, I know your lot has been even more bitter than mine. We can finally be together, this time I won’t leave you again. No matter how you change, you are always my man. I love you, love you forever and ever.”

  Ah Yin’s voice trembled, bringing choked sobs of emotion, tears rolling down her face like a snapped string of pearls.

  Tang Hao finally faced Ah Yin again, watching her beautiful countenance even closer. Restraining the twenty five years of feelings in his heart from breaking out like a flash flood, he suddenly circled his wife with his one arm, pulling them tightly together, crying loudly.

  In the spirit master world, Clear Sky Douluo was always a ferocious iron man, widely known for his unparallelled attacks. But now his bitterly weeping appearance was like that of a child. All the feelings had been constrained in his heart for twenty five years.

  Xiao Wu sacrificed herself for Tang San, and Tang San was immediately enlightened by the two forest kings that there was a chance to resurrect her, but when Ah Yin sacrificed herself, all she left for Tang Hao was a Blue Silver Emperor seed, and their newborn child. That was a heavy blow to Tang Hao.

  His dearly beloved wife, the mother of their son, finally stood living in front of him. The gentle feelings long since coiled tightly in his heart, violently drained out.

  Watching this scene, Xiao Wu also couldn’t help crying hiding in Tang San’s embrace. Tang San cried too, but he cried smiling. The whole family was finally reunited. For this moment, he had already waited far, far too long. He finally had a family, a family with both his parents, as well as his gentle and beautiful wife. He now felt like there was nothing else to strive for. Even the Seagod’s divine seat wasn’t enough to attract him.

  Tang San pulled Xiao Wu in close, walking quietly. His parents definitely had a lot to speak about, it was better for them to properly get familiar. As a son, he of course had to give them space. A tenderness and happiness he had never had made Tang San increasingly excited.

  This night, Tang San held Xiao Wu tightly as they slept. He didn’t cultivate, so much that he didn’t even reflect on any questions of cultivation or other things. In his mind, his heart, was only a dense warmth.

  Early morning. Moist dew, the sounds of insects and birds. Tang San woke from deep sleep, Xiao Wu was still sleeping sweetly in his warm embrace, both arms still wrapped around his neck, her face filled with happiness.

  Seeing her cute appearance, Tang San couldn’t help nibbling on the tip of her dainty nose. Xiao Wu’s nose twitched, and she opened eyes hazy with sleep.

  Her big eyes blinked, her long eyelashes dancing. Seeing Tang San watch her so closely, she still couldn’t help sinking back into Tang San’s arms,

  “Ge, what are you looking at me like that for?”

  Tang San whispered:

  “Xiao Wu, I’m afraid I might not have enough of looking at you for a lifetime. What should I do?”

  Xiao Wu murmured:

  “Then I’ll let you look for two lifetimes, three lifetimes, forever, forever. As long as you don’t turn away, I will be your wife forever.”

  Tang San didn’t say anything else, but answered Xiao Wu with a deep kiss that almost left her unabl
e to breathe.

  When Tang San and Xiao Wu returned to the valley, they found Tang Hao and Ah Yin sitting by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Ah Yin leaned in Tang Hao’s arms, her hazy gaze watching the two colored mist rising from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

  The Tang Hao they saw now was like a different person. His originally somewhat grizzled hair had now actually turned completely black, more than half of the lines on his face gone. His clear eyes looked around brightly, occasionally even giving people a feeling of heart palpitations. He seemed ten years younger.

  Ever since childhood, this was the first time Tang San had seen his father beam like this, and he couldn’t help calling out:

  “Dad, mom.”

  Tang Hao and Ah Yin turned their heads to look at them at the same time. Tang Hao’s face showed a faint smile, but Ah Yin sharply stood, spreading her arms to her tall elated son, her voice trembling:

  “Little San, little San, come quickly, let mom take a good look at you.”

  “Mom——”

  Tang San shouted from excitement, releasing Xiao Wu’s hand and stabbing the Seagod Trident into the ground, he suddenly dashed forward, falling to his knees in front of his mother.

  Ah Yin held tightly to Tang San’s wide shoulders. Her son was very tall, chest high to her even when kneeling. This was the first time mother and child had embraced since his birth.

  His mother’s embrace was warm and soft. That motherly presence made everything else in the world seem inconsequential. Mother and son held each other like this, crying.

  Tang Hao’s eyes filled with emotion. Raising his head to look at the sky, he suddenly felt that Heaven wasn’t unkind to him. Even after so much pain, in the end his family could still be together again. This moment, he was like Tang San yesterday, everything seemed faded. Spreading his arm, he embraced his wife and son.
