Zhang Fan thought for a moment.With a flick of his mind, a ferocious, malevolent aura exploded outward, as if the thoughts of an ancient demon from hell had manifested. This presence caused the hundred-year Thunder Eel to feel suffocated, its body trembling in fear."Whoosh..."
In an instant, he appeared in front of the Thunder Eel.
"Sizzle..."
The Tian Shang Sword crackled with purple lightning."Poof..."
Blood sprayed in all directions as he plunged both hands forcefully into the Thunder Eel's head.
His bright eyes looked down at the Thunder Eel, which had died beyond recognition.
"Whoosh..."
He swiftly carried the Thunder Eel's corpse to a distant patch of dense forest.
After scanning the surroundings and seeing no other soul beasts, he sat down on the ground.Ding, modification task triggered, two words can be modified.
[Begin absorbing Thunder Eel's spirit ring.]
Zhang Fan waved his hand, changing "Eel" to "Dragon."
[Begin absorbing Thunder Dragon's spirit ring.]
Ding, modification failed.
"Damn it!" Zhang Fan muttered in frustration.
He tried again, changing "Eel" to "Flood Dragon."
Ding, modification successful. The plot change is average, reward: 10 modification points.
In the next moment, the Thunder Eel transformed into a Thunder Flood Dragon.
"Buzz..."
He felt the soul power of the Thunder Flood Dragon grow even more violent.
Ding, modification task triggered.
[Successfully absorbing the hundred-year spirit ring without any danger.]
A modification window appeared before him.
He waved his hand, changing "hundred" years to "ten thousand" years.
Ding, the modification is too drastic. The host's body cannot handle it. Please modify again.
He immediately changed "hundred" years to "thousand" years.
Ding, modification successful. The plot change is average, reward: 10 modification points.
"Buzz..."
He felt the soul power surge even more violently, but strangely, there was no danger. Perhaps it had something to do with the message, "No danger."
Soon, he successfully attached the spirit ring, his soul power rising to Level 14—he had gained four levels in an instant! It felt absolutely incredible!
"Boom..."
Suddenly, the sky darkened, with storm clouds gathering and lightning flashing. A massive vortex appeared in the sky.
Enormous purple eyes emerged from the swirling vortex, gazing down at the Soul Hunting Forest.
Outside the Soul Hunting Forest, the armored soldiers looked up in horror. The pressure from the vortex's aura was so overwhelming that it made their hearts race and their bodies tremble.
"Buzz..."
Tang San, who had just absorbed the Mandala Snake's spirit ring, was also startled by the appearance of the vortex. Suddenly, a massive purple claw tore open a gap, and a gigantic purple Thunder Dragon emerged from the vortex.
"Mm?"
Tang Hao, who had been secretly guarding Tang San, was hiding under the shade of a tree. Upon seeing the massive creature in the sky, his brows furrowed in surprise. Why was such a powerful soul beast appearing here?
Moreover, it was the legendary Five-Clawed Purple Thunder Dragon! The mighty aura it exuded left everyone trembling.
"Mm... This doesn't seem like a soul beast. The aura is similar to what I felt in Holy Soul Village. Is it an otherworldly beast?"
Tang Hao was both surprised and cautious, but he did not intervene.
The Five-Clawed Purple Thunder Dragon circled the sky for a while before flying back into the vortex.
Zhang Fan noticed that his soul power was rapidly depleting due to the Thunder Dragon's appearance.
This won't do. He quickly recalled it.
His Nine Yang Divine Art had also reached the second level, allowing him to recover energy faster. He felt warm and comfortable all over.
Later, he returned to Tang San and Yu Xiaogang's side.
"You're back!" Tang San noticed that Zhang Fan's aura had grown even stronger."What level are you now?"
"Level 14," Zhang Fan replied calmly.
"That much?" Tang San was stunned. He had absorbed the Mandala Snake's four-hundred-year spirit ring and had only reached Level 11.How could Zhang Fan have reached Level 14 by himself?
He looked at Zhang Fan in disbelief and said,"I teamed up with my godmother to deplete the Mandala Snake, and we barely managed to defeat it. You alone could only absorb a hundred-year spirit ring at most!"
Tang San thought Zhang Fan's spirit ring must be white.
"Oh? You think it's whatever you want it to be? By the way, has Xiaogang really turned into your godmother?" Zhang Fan remarked, not expecting Tang San to blurt out "godmother" instead of "teacher."
"..."
Tang San was speechless. It was true that Xiaogang had turned into a woman due to an accident earlier, but he didn't expect his casual comment to become reality.
It was so bizarre.
