Qian Renheng shook his head slightly; he hadn’t even obtained his first spirit ring yet, so strictly speaking, he wasn’t a true Spirit Master.
Since he wasn’t even a Spirit Master, why should he worry about so much?
*Whoosh—*
Just then, a very faint ripple of spirit power suddenly rose within the noisy crowd.
Qian Daoliu walked through the crowd with his hands behind his back, moving with composure as if he were in an uninhabited place.
He had restrained his aura almost to the extreme, making his entire being seem to merge with the surrounding environment.
Those Spirit Masters who usually lived life on the edge, carrying their heads on their belts with their alertness maxed out, utterly failed to notice Qian Daoliu walking right past them.
“Yo?” Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang looked up slightly and teased Qian Daoliu, whose face was as dark as the bottom of a pot as he walked toward them.
“Isn’t this my useless eldest son?
Why did you take so long?
Are you just not up to it anymore?”
“…” Qian Daoliu was speechless and complained, “Father, you’re at such an age, how can you not keep your word?”
“We agreed on a race, but look at you—you didn’t even say a word before starting early.
Who plays like that?”
“This is called ‘all is fair in war,’ what do you know!” Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang said righteously.
“You’re over a hundred years old, how can you still be so naive?”
“You don’t even understand this bit of logic?
I see our High Priest of the Angels isn’t all that great.
If Spirit Hall is left to you, it’s probably finished!”
Hearing his father’s bottomless, twisted logic, Qian Daoliu felt helpless.
But then again, he was his father.
“Alright, Father, let’s get down to business.
Let’s hurry to the Star Dou Great Forest, get suitable spirit rings for the siblings as soon as possible, and head back.”
Saying this, Qian Daoliu’s expression turned serious as he began to analyze.
“Xue’er’s Spirit is the pure Seraphim Spirit.”
“It’s best if her first spirit ring possesses three attributes: Sacred, Light, and Fire.
Only then can the Spirit’s potential be maximized!”
“Of course, Spirit Beasts with all three attributes are very rare and hard to come by.
If we really can’t find one…”
“We will settle for the next best thing: a Spirit Beast with dual Light and Fire attributes, or a pure Light attribute one.”
As for the arrangement of Qian Renxue’s first spirit ring, a veteran powerhouse like Qian Daoliu knew how to choose even with his eyes closed.
“Mhm, not bad.” Hearing this, Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang couldn’t find any faults.
For the Angel Spirit, a Spirit Beast with all three attributes was indeed the best match.
If they couldn’t find one, they’d use a dual Light and Fire attribute beast.
If even that was unavailable, then a pure Light attribute one.
After finishing the plan for Qian Renxue, Qian Daoliu looked at the nearby Qian Renheng, who had made his teeth itch with frustration last night. Get faster updates on g.com.
He frowned slightly.
“Xiao Heng’s Death Angel Spirit is a bit special.
It also has three attributes, but these attributes are even rarer!”
“Darkness, Death, and Destruction.
Finding a Spirit Beast with all three is no easy task!”
“We’ll do as we did for Xue’er.
If we can find a Spirit Beast with all three attributes, we’ll use it!”
“If we really can’t…
we’ll use a pure Darkness attribute Spirit Beast for his first spirit ring.”
Qian Daoliu nodded slightly, his tone solemn.
Pure Darkness attribute Spirit Beasts, like Light attribute ones, were hard to find but not impossible.
The difficult ones were Death and Destruction.
They were on the same level as the Sacred attribute and were extremely rare.
Furthermore, Spirit Beasts with these attributes were not only more aggressive but also extremely few in number and very powerful.
“Mhm…
it truly won’t be easy to find a beast with all three attributes for Xiao Heng’s Spirit.”
“How about this: when the time comes, we’ll fully release our sensory abilities and move through the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Great Forest at maximum speed.
We might find one!”
“As long as we don’t make too much noise and trigger a beast tide in the Star Dou Great Forest, it’ll be fine.”
Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang spoke.
Rare was just rare, not non-existent.
With two Peerless experts and their immense sensory powers, how could they possibly fail to find one?
“If we can’t find a Spirit Beast with Darkness, Death, and Destruction attributes, then I’ll just use a pure Darkness attribute beast for my first spirit ring,” Qian Renheng thought to himself.
His Spirit was a God-level Spirit; its requirements for spirit ring attributes weren’t that strict.
Of course, it would be best if they could find one, but it wouldn’t be a tragedy if they couldn’t.
After some discussion, Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang and Qian Daoliu wasted no more time.
They left the Soul Hunting Town and entered the Star Dou Great Forest with Qian Renheng and Qian Renxue.
…
As soon as they stepped into the Star Dou Great Forest, Qian Renheng and Qian Renxue felt as if they had crossed a space-time barrier and returned to the distant ancient era.
Ancient trees towered around them, their massive canopies blotting out the sun, while thick vines intertwined like coiling dragons.
The midday sun was scorching, yet it could not penetrate this extremely dense primeval forest, only casting dappled light and shadows through the gaps in the leaves.
*Whoosh—*
Two golden afterimages, each carrying a child, darted through the intricate forest.
Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang and Qian Daoliu fully released their vast, mist-like sensory abilities.
Like two precision radars, they performed a carpet scan of the surroundings for Spirit Beasts that met their requirements.
About half an hour later, Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang frowned as he watched Qian Daoliu turn and head toward the depths of the forest.
He couldn’t help but ask, “Liu’er, why are you flying toward the Mixed Zone?
Stop right now!”
“The Mixed Zone is where Thousand-Year and Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Beasts live.
Xiao Heng and Xue’er only need rings around the four-hundred-year mark.”
“Searching the outer perimeter is more than enough.
It might even be harder to find what we need in the Mixed Zone!”
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu didn’t stop.
Instead, a smile appeared on his face; he was prepared to give his father a surprise!
You remnant of the old era, you old quail whose thoughts are out of touch with the times—what do you know?
“Father, isn’t this just showing your ignorance?” Qian Daoliu said triumphantly.
“Xiao Heng and Xue’er’s talents are unprecedented.
I plan to have them directly absorb Thousand-Year Spirit Rings!”
“So Father, we must enter the Mixed Zone.
Only there can we find Spirit Beasts suitable for them.”
“Thousand-Year Spirit Rings?”
“That’s right, Father.
Thousand-Year Spirit Rings.
You are about to witness the birth of Spirit Masters whose first rings are thousand-year ones!”
Hearing this, Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
His originally calm eyes suddenly bulged with anger.
His chest heaved violently as an uncontrollable, wild fury erupted like a volcano.
In his understanding, no matter how stunningly talented a person was, the age limit for a first spirit ring could absolutely not exceed five hundred years!
A Spirit Master’s absorption of spirit rings was a gradual process, breaking one’s limits step by step.
The first ring should not exceed five hundred years, the second not exceed one thousand…
Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple…!
This was an iron law summarized by countless ancestors through lessons of blood.
No one could break it!
Qian Daoliu wanted these two six-year-old children, who had just awakened their Spirits and had delicate bodies, to directly and forcibly absorb Thousand-Year Spirit Rings?
And what was that about him being ignorant?
This was clearly trying to treat his two precious great-grandchildren like firecrackers to be blown up!
Damn you, Qian Daoliu!
