Chapter 245 Successfully Absorbing the Soul Ring

When Ye saw this scene, a hint of undisguised terror flashed in the depths of his deep and sharp eyes.

His feet moved forward involuntarily, as if he wanted to rush forward to help Tang Nian get out of her predicament. However, after taking only a few steps, Shi Ye suddenly stopped, feeling hesitant and struggling.

As a fellow Soul Master, Shi Ye was fully aware of the situation he was in, and its danger and complexity were self-evident.

Despite his deep reluctance to face this cruel reality, the facts before him were undeniably frustrating, and Shi Ye knew he was powerless to help Tang Nian, who was in such a predicament.

If it were a direct confrontation with the Netherworld Serpent King, things would be fine, but at this moment Tang Nian is absorbing the Netherworld Serpent King's soul ring, so he can't play any role.

Right now, Tang Nian can only rely on herself. Thinking of this, Shi Ye's hands, which were already trembling slightly due to nervousness, clenched tightly involuntarily, and even his palms were covered with a layer of fine sweat.

However, even so, his gaze remained firmly fixed on Tang Nian, who was struggling to hold on not far away, and he never looked away for a moment.

Tang Nian's petite body was covered with mottled bloodstains, like a painting smeared with blood, a shocking sight.

Her once fair and snow-white face was now completely bloodless, as pale as a sheet of paper.

Seeing this scene, Shi Ye felt as if an invisible hand was gripping his heart tightly, causing him unbearable pain.

He couldn't help but feel remorse and blame himself. If only he had arrived here sooner, he might have been able to prevent Tang Nian from being alone in such an extremely dangerous situation.

All the blame lies with myself, and Shi Ye secretly vowed that he would never let anything like this happen again.

Recalling that earlier, Shi Ye had given Tang Nian a piece of the torso bone of a golden dragon.

At the same time, Shi Ye also gave Tang Nian a beautiful butterfly hair clip.

The hair clip was small and exquisite, inlaid with dazzling gemstones, and its wings were so lifelike that it looked as if a real butterfly had landed there.

However, no one expected that this seemingly insignificant butterfly hair clip would later become a crucial clue.

When Ye realized that Tang Nian might be in danger, it was thanks to the special connection between him and the hairpin that he was able to quickly pinpoint her location and rush over anxiously.

At this moment, Shi Ye's gaze was fixed on Tang Nian's head, and he secretly rejoiced.

The beautiful butterfly hair clip remained quietly nestled in her hair, shimmering faintly.

If Tang Nian hadn't been wearing this hair clip all along, Shi Ye would probably still be completely unaware of her safety.

Time flies, and five days and five nights have passed in the blink of an eye.

Throughout this time, Shi Ye remained highly vigilant, daring not to slacken his guard in the slightest. His eyes hardly ever left Tang Nian for a moment, as if those eyes had been permanently attached to her.

Because he was unfamiliar with this area, Shi Ye knew that countless unknown dangers lurked within it.

To ensure that Tang Nian could safely absorb the spirit ring without any interference or disturbance, he unhesitatingly released the extremely powerful force within his body.

This force, like a surging torrent, spread outwards, forming an indestructible barrier.

As expected, just as Shi Ye had predicted, not a single insect or snake appeared in the vicinity during these five days and five nights.

The entire space seemed to be shrouded in an invisible pressure, making all living beings fearful and unwilling to approach easily.

Whether it was Tang Nian's own illusion or not, as time quietly passed, Tang Nian actually felt that the powerful force left behind by the Netherworld Serpent King was gradually becoming weaker and weaker.

Surprisingly, although the power left behind by the Nether Serpent King was gradually waning, in stark contrast, the power of the Blue Silver Emperor was showing a trend of continuous strengthening.

At the beginning, Tang Nian overused his soul power, which eventually led to his exhaustion and collapse, and the power of the Blue Silver Emperor was also weakened.

But the situation is completely different now.

The remaining consciousness of the Netherworld Serpent King was slowly fading away, while the power within Tang Nian's body surged forth like a turbulent tide, growing ever stronger.

Tang Nian's brows furrowed slightly, and then her body suddenly trembled violently. In an instant, an incomparably powerful force, like a tidal wave, burst forth from Tang Nian's body.

In an instant, this force shot upwards like an arrow released from a bow, breaking through the bottomless, turbulent River of Oblivion.

At this heart-stopping moment, Tang Nian finally slowly opened her eyes, which had been tightly closed for so long.

After a difficult and arduous battle and tireless efforts, Tang Nian finally succeeded in absorbing and integrating all the power of the Netherworld Serpent King into her own body.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

At the same time, Tang Nian's other shore flower martial soul also obtained the sixth soul ring she had been dreaming of.

At this moment, Tang Nian let out a long sigh of relief, and her tense heartstrings were finally able to relax a little.

Then, Tang Nian's once bright eyes revealed an undisguised weariness, and her gaze, like a candle flame flickering in the wind, slowly and gently fell.

Finally, Tang Nian's gaze, as if finding its home, settled steadily on the soul bone that was radiating a mysterious light.

Given the current situation, it would be unwise to rashly absorb the soul bone of the Netherworld Serpent King.

Tang Nian knew that the seemingly tempting soul bone in front of him might very well be hiding a deadly trap carefully laid by the Netherworld Serpent King.

Just then, Tang Nian suddenly sensed an unusually powerful yet familiar force rapidly approaching. Her heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively turned her head to look.

In an instant, a tall and imposing figure came into her view; it was none other than Shi Ye, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

The moment Tang Nian saw Shi Ye, her heartstrings, which had been taut and almost snapping, instantly relaxed.

An indescribable sense of security welled up inside her, making her feel as if she were basking in the warm spring sunshine.

However, despite feeling greatly comforted, Tang Nian's eyes instantly reddened, like two pools of water about to burst their banks.
