Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body.

"Let's go, it's time to go back."

Yue Guan looked up at the sky, casually dealt with the eight-thousand-year-old Titan Giant Ape, and then put the corpse of the ten-thousand-year-old Titan Giant Ape into his storage soul tool.

The Titan Ape's corpse is a treasure trove, especially its flesh, which is highly effective in enhancing soul power, particularly for Yang Jian.

Yang Jian absorbed the Titan Giant Ape's soul ring.

It can also be eaten with Titan Ape meat.

The speed of cultivation will definitely increase significantly.

These two Titan Apes are enormous, enough to feed Yang Jian for several months. Once Yang Jian has finished eating them, he can hunt a few more. Perfect.

It's a pity that neither of these two Titan Apes dropped a Soul Bone.

……

Lake of Life.

Erming lay on the soft grass, resting with his eyes closed.

Just then, a gigantic Titan ape came running out of the forest, squatted down beside it, and howled incessantly, reporting something.

"What?!"

Erming instantly snapped to his senses and let out a deafening roar, his voice filled with disbelief.

"You said two members of your tribe were killed?"

Erming pounded his chest repeatedly with his fists, his expression one of grief and indignation, his eyes bloodshot, and his teeth clenched.

"Who did this?!"

Erming's terrifying pressure spread in all directions.

The spirit beasts within a radius of several miles were so frightened that they scattered and fled.

It wants revenge!

It will tear the despicable man who killed its own people to pieces.

"Er Ming."

At that moment, a deep voice came from behind, carrying a hint of helplessness.

The Azure Bull Python, Daming, rose from the water and said, "It was probably hunted down by humans and has likely left the Star Dou Great Forest long ago. Anything you do now is in vain."

"I'm not reconciled! I'll make them pay!" Erming roared.

"And then?" Da Ming retorted. "You go to human territory and cause a ruckus, attracting a siege from human Title Douluo powerhouses, and then get killed and used as a spirit ring?"

"Even if you can defeat one or two Title Douluos."

"Can you defeat ten or eight Title Douluos?"

Erming was stunned.

It may not be very bright, but it's not stupid.

It knew that Da Ming was right.

"So, we'll just leave it at that?"

Erming's voice lowered, filled with deep resentment and frustration, sounding very suppressed.

Da Ming was silent for a moment, then said, "What else can we do?"

"Unless you can get the Beast God and the others to help, it's just suicide."

Upon hearing this, Erming knew that this was not realistic.

All it could do was slam its fist into the ground, beginning its impotent rage.

After a long silence, Erming suddenly remembered something, and his expression turned serious: "Do you think Sister Xiaowu might also be in danger?"

"If those despicable humans were to discover that Sister Xiaowu is a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Da Ming took a deep breath and said, "Sister Xiao Wu is smarter than us."

Even so, a hint of worry flashed in its eyes.

The human world is ultimately too dangerous for them.

……

Wuhun Temple.

Yue Guan led the two back to their residence.

He told them to go back and rest.

He then hurried to the Papal Palace.

At this moment, Bibi Dong was sitting on the gilded throne with a document in her hand. She looked up when she heard footsteps.

"You're back?" she asked indifferently. "How's Yang Jian's spirit ring?"

Yue Guan stepped forward: "Your Holiness, Yang Jian has absorbed a ten-thousand-year soul ring!"

The hall was silent for a few seconds.

Bibi Dong stopped flipping through the documents.

Raise your head.

Disbelief flashed in her purple eyes.

"What did you say?"

"A ten-thousand-year spirit ring." Yue Guan repeated each word carefully, "And it's a ten-thousand-year spirit ring from a Titan Giant Ape. Yang Jian successfully absorbed it."

Bibi Dong remained silent for a long time.

She had considered that Yang Jian might absorb a decent thousand-year soul ring, after all, the child's physical strength was indeed far beyond that of ordinary people.

But I never imagined that my first spirit ring could reach ten thousand years.

This completely overturned her understanding.

It even overturned the entire Soul Master community's understanding.

"Xiao Gang..."

Bibi Dong muttered to herself.

For some reason, the image of Yu Xiaogang reappeared in my mind.

A complex mix of emotions flashed in his eyes.

What do you think?

Bibi Dong composed herself, forcing herself to dispel Yu Xiaogang's image, and looked at Yue Guan.

After a moment of contemplation, Yue Guan replied earnestly, "The key to Yang Jian's ability to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring lies in his physical strength."

"Three months ago, when he came to the Spirit Hall, his physical strength was still quite ordinary."

"But now, his physical strength is comparable to that of a Soul King."

"This growth rate is probably inseparable from the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword Martial Soul."

"Your Holiness, such an achievement cannot be replicated by others. But if Yang Jian can pass on this martial spirit, the Spirit Hall will surely stand tall on the continent for thousands of generations."

Bibi Dong fell into deep thought.

That makes sense.

Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.

His mind raced, calculating rapidly.

Yang Jian's talent is beyond doubt.

Today, it has created the miracle of the first ring in ten thousand years.

Such a genius.

You probably can't find another one like it on the entire continent.

And she... has already obtained the inheritance of the Rakshasa God, and is destined to ascend to the realm of gods in the future.

By then, the Spirit Hall will need a sufficiently powerful successor.

She was very unhappy with the Qian family. She had spent so many years trying to take back power from the Elders' Hall and the Hall of Worship to the Papal Palace. She was determined not to let the Qian family regain control of the Spirit Hall.

Therefore, the heir must be trustworthy.

There aren't many people like that.

Hu Liena barely qualifies.

She has always raised Hu Liena as her daughter.

Loyalty, talent, and character.

The other party is just as good in every way.

But loyalty alone is not enough; one also needs sufficient strength to intimidate everyone.

Yang Jian is the best choice.

If these two children could be paired up...

In this way, Yang Jian's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword Martial Soul can be passed down from generation to generation in the Spirit Hall.

Furthermore, Nana is someone he trusts.

This will also ensure that the power of the Spirit Hall will not fall into other hands in the future.

A win-win situation!

Although Nana is six years older than Yang Jian, age is never a problem for Soul Masters.

Decades later, this difference will be nothing at all.

After thinking about this, Bibi Dong made a decision.

"Moon Pass".

"Your subordinate is here."

"From today onwards, you must keep a close eye on Yang Jian and ensure he doesn't suffer any harm." Bibi Dong's voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority. "Also, when you're instructing Yang Jian in the future, remember to bring Hu Liena along as well."

Yue Guan was slightly taken aback.

He then understood what Bibi Dong meant.

I think this decision couldn't be more appropriate.

Yang Jian and Hu Liena, one with extraordinary talent and the other loyal and reliable, are truly a match made in heaven.

"Understood, Your subordinate." Yue Guan bowed and turned to leave.

As he walked out of the main hall, a smile appeared on his lips.

It looks like the days ahead are going to be very interesting.
