Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

The cave may contain the Fire Glass Serpent, but it could also harbor powerful soul beasts. Going down rashly would be too dangerous!

"We need to investigate first!"

Ao Yin couldn't help but think of a reward he had received from signing in at Holy Soul Village before—[Diamond Vajra Breaking Illusion], a rare level 2 reward with the miraculous effect of breaking through illusions at a subtle level.

【Diamond Shatters Illusions】

Ao Yin instantly activated his Eyes of Truth, his pupils covered with a layer of golden flames, allowing him to examine things with exquisite detail!

Beneath the cave, every detail is laid bare.

The soil churns, the grass trembles, lava surges, water drips from the rocks, insects crawl...

Countless subtle sounds penetrated my senses, among which was a very faint heartbeat!

"There are indeed soul beasts lurking underground!" Ao Yin judged instantly.

Below is a natural lava cave.

However, the heartbeat was extremely weak, only slightly stronger than that of an ordinary person, and completely lacked the ferocious aura that a ferocious beast should have.

"It looks like he's seriously injured and on the verge of death!"

Based on the clues marked with red dots, the Fire Glass Serpent is definitely hiding in this cave!

Ao Yin's eyes gleamed with delight, his heart bursting with joy.

This is definitely a windfall opportunity!

Without the slightest hesitation, he leaped into the air and landed steadily in the underground cave.

The cave is filled with bright red crystalline rocks, as bright as day.

The temperature was unbearably hot, several times more sweltering than the forest below.

Ignoring the scorching heat, Ao Yin ventured straight into the depths of the cave.

Before long, a slowly flowing underground river of lava came into view.

The cave is small and can be seen in its entirety at a glance.

The lava flowed through a narrow crevice, just wide enough for a person to pass through.

"Where exactly is the Fire Glass Serpent hiding?"

Ao Yingang was puzzled when the surface of the lava river suddenly began to move!

Poof! Poof! Poof!

The scalding river surface was churning and bubbling wildly, like boiling water, and the commotion was getting more and more intense!

Ao Yin's heart skipped a beat!

How could any living thing move around in such scorching, deadly magma?

Before he could think any further!

Whoosh!

With a tremendous splash, a giant egg, about the size of a human head and covered with crimson patterns, slowly rose from the depths of the magma!

"An egg?"

Ao Yin was completely stunned.

The scorching heat, like that of a magma inferno, failed to cook the giant egg.

Click!

The crisp sound of the shell cracking was particularly jarring in the silent cave.

A thin crack appeared in the eggshell, and the red dot on the map flashed wildly for a moment.

Ao Yin suddenly understood!

"So that's how it is! There wasn't a seriously injured adult Fire Glass Serpent at all!"

"The clues point to an egg that's about to hatch..."

Upon learning the truth, Ao Yin completely let go of all his worries and looked completely relaxed.

No wonder the system said the success rate of the hunt was 100%!

What's there to be afraid of?

It's just a newborn cub, small enough to be pinched!

He rubbed his hands together, waiting patiently for the little one to hatch.

Click!Click!

The eggshell shattered one after another, crack...

A small, fist-sized beast's head broke through the first eggshell, its eyes snapping open and flashing with brilliant firelight!

Click...

Another head...

Then, the second, the third... a total of nine heads hatched one after another!

With a splash!

A nine-headed soul beast broke free of its eggshell and hovered in the air above the lava.

"It really is the Fire Glass Serpent!" Ao Yin exclaimed with delight.

Born with an overwhelming ferocity, it opened its mouth and let out a sharp screech, locking onto Ao Yin!

Ao Yin's lips curled into a disdainful smile.

How dare this mere newborn cub be so arrogant in front of him?

Although the age limit is low, it is very suitable for the Panlong Staff Martial Soul, making it an excellent Soul Ring!

"Little guy, with such a strong aura of hostility, then obediently become my first spirit ring!"

The newly hatched Fire Glass Serpent was extremely wild and starving, so it actually took Ao Yin in front of it as its prey.

Flames surged, and the cub, brimming with ferocity, pounced at full speed!

Ao Yin immediately raised an eyebrow. It was truly laughable to be looked down upon by a newborn soul beast!

"A mere cub dares to try and eat me? How dare you!"

【Icy Palm】, 【Dragon Claw Hand】, 【Immense Power】

"Get down here!"

The Fire Glass Serpent, carrying boundless flames, pounced on Ao Yin!

Ao Yin suddenly unleashed two martial arts techniques, [Frosty Palm] and [Dragon Claw Hand], instantly filling his palms with a chilling aura. Combined with immense power, he managed to tear the Fire Glass Serpent off!

Ao Yin's palms exploded with icy energy, instantly suppressing the flames on the Fire Glass Teng Snake cub's body. He then transformed his palms into claws, precisely locking onto the cub's body as it pounced. Ice and fire clashed, and sizzling white smoke billowed out.

Newborn Fire Glass Serpents are weak and powerless to resist!

Ao Yin unleashed his immense power and slammed down fiercely!

boom!

The hard rock wall instantly shattered and cracked!

The cub crashed down, sustaining severe injuries!

"If you grow another year or two, I might have to be a little more wary of you."

"But daring to provoke me right after birth is simply courting death!"

Ao Yin snorted coldly, but was secretly overjoyed.

This is truly an incredible opportunity to snag a bargain!

Even as cubs, their bodies still felt a burning sensation, their talent far surpassing that of ordinary soul beasts.

Unfortunately, no matter how strong his talent is, it can only become his first spirit ring today!

The heavily injured nine-headed serpent refused to give in and struggled to launch a counterattack.

Ao Yin showed no mercy and with a roar, unleashed a powerful punch!

Bang!

Sparks flew everywhere, and the force exploded!

The cub was sent flying, leaving a long scorch mark on the ground.

It struggled desperately several times before finally collapsing completely.

Fire Glass Snake, die!

It died in just one minute, making it arguably the shortest-lived Fire Glass Serpent!

A faint, transparent white light slowly rose, and a brand-new soul ring floated quietly in mid-air.

Ao Yin's eyes lit up, and his face was full of joy!

"It's done!"

"The Fire Glass Serpent's spirit ring!"

Ao Yin was overjoyed, but when he looked closely at the color of the soul ring, he was stunned.

Outrageous!

This spirit ring is way too faint!

A normal ten-year spirit ring is pure white, but this one is almost transparent pale white!

But there was nothing that could be done; this Fire Glass Serpent was only born for a minute.

Ao Yin immediately felt relieved, and a confident smile appeared on his lips.

Low age limit? Doesn't matter at all!

The key point is that it is a Fire Glaze Serpent Soul Ring of the sub-dragon type, and its attributes are compatible with the Panlong Staff!

Others care about the number of years, but he doesn't care at all!

Because of him, he can freely increase the age of his spirit rings!

Before the spirit ring dissipated, Ao Yin immediately sat down cross-legged.

"absorb!"

"Fire Glass Serpent, become my first spirit ring!"

The pale white spirit ring floated gently, slowly merging into Ao Yin's body along with the surrounding energy flow.

The time limit is extremely short, there is no pressure at all, and it is absorbed and integrated in an instant!

The first spirit ring of the Panlong Staff is the Fire Glass Teng Snake!

"now!"

Ao Yin let out a low shout!

A faint, smoky white soul ring slowly rose from beneath his feet.

The moment the spirit ring appeared, the Panlong Staff martial spirit trembled slightly.

If outside soul masters were to see this, they would be utterly astonished.

Which Soul Master's first Soul Ring doesn't take at least ten years to develop?

But Ao Yin, of all people, directly absorbed a newly born dragon's soul ring!

He can be called the most bizarre soul master in history!

But so what?

"So what if I'm at the bottom in terms of experience? Nobody knows my trump card!"

Ao Yin's eyes were filled with arrogance, and he felt extremely pleased.

A fiery dragon coiled around the staff, and wisps of true dragon aura even emanated from it!
