Chapter 197: Yu Xiaogang Has Already Decided to Die!
Looking at the writhing, maggot-like, pale white light on his Clear Sky Hammer, and the almost transparent white ten-year spirit ring,
Tang San's face instantly turned deathly pale. He staggered back several steps uncontrollably, his voice shrill with extreme shock and fear, saying,
"Teacher! What's going on? This… what exactly is going on?!"
"Why is my Clear Sky Hammer's spirit ring a white ten-year spirit ring?! And it looks… this disgusting?!"
At this moment, Tang San seemed completely unable to accept the reality before him. This was nothing like the imposing Clear Sky Hammer with its ten-thousand-year spirit ring that he had envisioned.
"Little San, I… I don't know… what exactly is going on either…"
Grandmaster, stared at by Tang San's almost murderous gaze, his face alternating between pale and flushed, his lips trembling for a long time, unable to utter a single word. After a long while, he finally spoke.
"According to the records of twin spirits in the Spirit Hall's secret scriptures and my research, when a spirit master adds the first two spirit rings to their second spirit, as long as it doesn't exceed their own spirit power limit by too much, theoretically, the extreme situation of you exploding and dying like this shouldn't occur..."
"But...but you did! And you couldn't even withstand a hundred-year spirit ring. To save you, I resorted to this desperate measure of letting you absorb this ten-year spirit ring."
He paused deliberately, his gaze turning serious as he looked at Tang San, his tone becoming more subtle, subtly pointing the finger at the latter.
"Could it be...could it be that the quality of your Clear Sky Hammer spirit, or rather...your body's endurance, has some hidden dangers or peculiarities that we haven't yet detected? After all, twin spirits are one in ten thousand, and every case may be unique."
Grandmaster's words sounded like an analysis of the cause, but every word hinted at something.
The problem wasn't with his spirit theory, but with Tang San himself.
"Impossible!"
"My Clear Sky Hammer is the number one weapon spirit in the world, how could there be a problem?" Tang San's eyes turned bloodshot instantly upon hearing that Grandmaster attributed the failure to the quality of his Clear Sky Hammer or a problem with his body. He roared, his anger reaching the top of his head.
At this moment, he was torn between two conflicting thoughts.
If it really wasn't my problem... then Grandmaster's theory of spirits was flawed?
Yes! That must be it! Yu Xiaogang's so-called theory of twin spirits was nothing but empty talk, never tested in practice!
He was the one who confidently claimed that it was possible to absorb power beyond one's level, and he was the one who guided me in cultivating my second spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer! Now, such a huge oversight has caused my Clear Sky Hammer to suffer such a disgrace, becoming this filthy and wretched state!
If it is ultimately proven that this bastard's flawed theory is what caused me to this... then he has no choice but to die!
"How dare anyone tarnish or defile my Clear Sky Hammer, Tang San!"
Staring at Grandmaster, a cold killing intent flashed uncontrollably in Tang San's eyes.
However, just as he was about to lose control of his emotions,
"Boom—!!!"
Not far away, a deafening roar, like muffled thunder, rolled in, causing the earth to tremble slightly.
Looking out, they saw dust billowing into the sky from the distant dense forest.
Like a sandstorm, countless dark figures appeared and disappeared in the dust, carrying the terrifying momentum of a stampede of beasts, charging madly towards their direction!
"Xiaogang! Be careful!"
"It seems something terrible is rushing towards us!"
Seeing this, Liu Erlong's expression changed drastically. She flashed, as if teleporting, directly blocking Grandmaster's path. Her red soul power erupted, forming a shield that firmly protected her and Grandmaster behind her.
This sudden turn of events interrupted Tang San's impending outburst of anger.
Faced with a life-or-death crisis, he temporarily suppressed his personal humiliation and doubts.
The next second, Tang San's eyes blazed with a brilliant purple-gold light, his gaze like two sharp bolts of purple lightning piercing through the billowing smoke and dust, looking towards the source of the raging torrent.
Instantly, he clearly saw the chilling scene.
Countless pairs of crimson beast eyes, spirit beasts of various shapes and sizes. From ten years, a hundred years to a thousand years, ten thousand years old, they converged into a destructive torrent, trampling everything in their path, charging madly towards their current location with a clear objective!
"What?! How... how can there be so many spirit beasts?!" Tang San's face turned deathly pale, his voice trembling uncontrollably.
"Spirit beasts?" Grandmaster was stunned at first, then followed Tang San's gaze. Although he couldn't see the specifics, the rumbling of the earth and the billowing smoke and dust said it all.
Then, he whirled around, looking at the mountain of spirit beast corpses that Tang San had slaughtered behind him, the heavy stench of blood almost tangible.
A terrifying thought struck him like lightning!
"Little San! Oh no!" Grandmaster's voice was shrill and distorted with fear.
"It was you! It was you who just indiscriminately slaughtered soul beasts, even tortured them! This behavior... this behavior may have angered some powerful beings in the forest, or triggered a spontaneous vengeful will from the soul beasts!"
"This... this is a spontaneous beast tide! They're coming for us!"
The ancient texts of the Spirit Hall recorded that soul beasts are not without intelligence, especially high-age soul beasts. Such a large-scale slaughter and torture is enough to arouse the hostility of all the soul beasts in the forest!
"Erlong! Quick! Let's run! Get out of here!"
Grandmaster could no longer care about anything else, shouting urgently, his hands gripping the armrests of his wheelchair tightly.
Liu Erlong also realized the seriousness of the situation. The aura of the beast tide made her heart pound. Without any hesitation, she pushed Grandmaster's wheelchair up, unleashing all her soul power, and regardless of whether she was going the right way, she ran wildly in the opposite direction of the beast tide!
"Little San! Keep up!"
Grandmaster shouted back even while jostling in his wheelchair.
Tang San watched the beast tide sweep in like a natural disaster, then glanced at the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, shrouded in a filthy white spirit ring.
A surge of frustration, anger, and inexplicable fear welled up inside him.
He gritted his teeth, forcibly summoning the last vestiges of his spirit power, and used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps to stagger after Liu Erlong and Grandmaster's fleeing footsteps.
Tang San, Grandmaster, and Liu Erlong, two carrying one crippled member, were not known for their speed, nor did they possess the ability to fly.
Among the pursuing beast tide were many spirit beasts renowned for their speed, such as Wind Wolves and Shadow Leopards.
In a short while, a menacing wind swept behind them, accompanied by several bloodthirsty growls. Several agile, fierce-looking Thousand-Year Gale Wolves had already caught up.
They powerfully pushed off the ground with their hind legs, transforming into several azure afterimages, opening their blood-red maws, and pounced on Liu Erlong, who was lagging behind, and Tang San and Grandmaster, who were staggering forward!
"Little San! Take your teacher and go first!"
With a low shout, Liu Erlong's eyes flashed with a fierce light. Without hesitation, she shoved Grandmaster's wheelchair forward towards Tang San.
At the same time, scorching crimson soul power erupted from her body. A high-pitched dragon roar echoed through the forest, and a massive phantom of a fire dragon soared into the sky behind her! The powerful pressure caused the several charging Gale Wolves to freeze in their tracks.
