Chapter 166: Ghost Tiger
Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!
As time passed, about eight hours later, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing’s absorption of the Immortal Herb was nearing its end.
Xiao Wu was absorbing the Yearning Heartbroken Red, the true king of Immortal Herb, possessing the terrifying medicinal power to bring the dead back to life and regrow flesh and bone.
After initially absorbing its medicinal power, it could at least increase the user’s spirit power by ten levels.
As a Beast-to-Human Transformation, Xiao Wu relied on absorbing the medicinal power of the Yearning Heartbroken Red to increase her spirit power from level 41 to level 50, and immediately began to self-condense her fifth spirit ring.
Before reaching level 70 spirit power, Xiao Wu did not need to hunt Spirit Beast for spirit rings; she could completely self-condense them, and the ones she condensed were always the most compatible with herself.
Zhu Zhuqing was absorbing the narcissus jade muscle bone, and after finishing the absorption of its medicinal power, she quickly opened her eyes and woke up.
Absorbing the medicinal power of the narcissus jade muscle bone greatly strengthened her physical fitness, making her muscles and bones exceptionally tough, clearing almost all the meridians in her body, and giving her whole body a sense of clarity.
With a mere thought from Zhu Zhuqing, her spirit power could circulate throughout her entire body and limbs; in high-intensity combat, this could increase her strength by at least thirty percent.
Furthermore, looking at her appearance, the skin Zhu Zhuqing had exposed revealed a jade-like luster, as if it were ivory white jade—crystal clear, delicate, and fair, so tender it seemed as if one could pinch water from it.
After waking up, Zhu Zhuqing felt the improvement in her own strength and was immediately stunned, unable to collect her thoughts for a long time.
Her strength had improved too quickly; Zhu Zhuqing had never imagined that in less than three short days, she could rise from level 28 spirit power to her current level 40.
Level 40 spirit power was not Zhu Zhuqing’s limit; it was just because she lacked a fourth spirit ring that the spirit power accumulated within her body had not been fully released.
Once Zhu Zhuqing absorbed her fourth spirit ring, her spirit power would continue to advance rapidly.
And all of this was because of the two 50,000-year-old dark-attribute Spirit Bone Lu Chen had given her, as well as the Immortal Herb, the narcissus jade muscle bone.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing felt filled with gratitude toward Lu Chen. She quickly stood up and scanned her surroundings, searching for Lu Chen’s figure.
The surroundings were enveloped in a blue light, but Zhu Zhuqing still quickly found Lu Chen, who was sitting cross-legged not far away.
Seeing that Lu Chen was focused on what was in front of him, Zhu Zhuqing did not call out to him. She just walked over on tiptoe and then knelt beside Lu Chen.
Without making a sound to disturb Lu Chen, she just quietly gazed at his profile. Looking at his well-defined face, Zhu Zhuqing had a smile on her lips, her expression gentle, and her eyes reflected Lu Chen’s figure, as if this moment were permanently frozen.
With Lu Chen’s perception ability, he had of course long since discovered that Zhu Zhuqing had woken up and walked to his side.
He turned his head to look at Zhu Zhuqing, whose skin was fair and delicate, so tender it seemed one could pinch water from it.
Lu Chen’s eyes lit up, and he couldn’t help but reach out and pinch one of Zhu Zhuqing’s cheeks. The delicate sensation was irresistible.
Zhu Zhuqing let Lu Chen pinch her face; let alone pinching her face, no matter where Lu Chen wanted to pinch, Zhu Zhuqing was perfectly willing.
Lu Chen nodded in satisfaction: "The narcissus jade muscle bone is indeed very suitable for you, Zhuqing; you have become even more beautiful!"
"How is your strength improvement?"
Zhu Zhuqing’s voice was as pleasant as a mountain spring in an empty valley: "My spirit power has increased from level 38 to level 40, but this is definitely not my limit. I can perceive that a large portion of the spirit power brought to me by the narcissus jade muscle bone is still sleeping within my body, but because I lack a fourth spirit ring, there is no way to release it."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chen closed his eyes and began to perceive. Through the Blue Silver Domain, he quickly found a suitable Spirit Beast in the Sunset Forest.
He opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Rest assured, your fourth spirit ring will be delivered to your doorstep very soon."
Hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing tilted her head in confusion. Her fourth spirit ring delivering itself to her—what did that mean?
Meanwhile, inside the Sunset Forest!
A pitch-black tiger-type Spirit Beast, reaching three and a half meters in length, was lying on a patch of grass, licking its paws quite leisurely, with bloodstains still on them.
Clearly, this tiger-type Spirit Beast had just finished a hunt and had eaten its prey.
This tiger-type Spirit Beast was named Ghost Tiger!
With a body length of three and a half meters and a cultivation level as high as 8,000 years, it could be called a hegemon of this Sunset Forest!
But just at this moment, a rustling sound suddenly erupted in the originally quiet forest all around.
The Ghost Tiger twitched its ears, having already detected these subtle movements. It stood up from the ground, its vertical pupils looking vigilantly toward the forest, and let out a low roar: "Roar!"
That muffled low roar was enough to make one’s heart race, and some low-cultivation ten-year Spirit Beast or hundred-year Spirit Beast would likely be shocked into fainting.
The next instant, dozens of Blue Silver Vines sprang out from the forest; each Blue Silver Vine was as thick as an adult’s thigh, resembling snakes and pythons, rapidly surrounding it from all directions.
Facing the heavy encirclement, the Ghost Tiger’s large tiger face clearly showed confusion and bewilderment.
It could not understand at all how these Blue Silver Grass, which could be seen everywhere in the forest, dared to provoke it today.
But not understanding did not affect the Ghost Tiger’s ability to react quickly.
It unleashed its innate skill: Clone.
Amidst a surge of black light, the black tiger immediately split into nine, and soon nine Ghost Tigers appeared on the scene.
The nine Ghost Tigers each chose a direction and pounced toward those Blue Silver Vines, biting at them.
Crackle! Snap!
However, the Ghost Tiger miscalculated this time. The thick Blue Silver Vines were not only exceptionally tough but also powerful. Dozens of Blue Silver Vines whipped against the bodies of these Ghost Tigers, directly causing eight of them to explode and dissipate into a mist of black fog.
The remaining true body of the Ghost Tiger was also whipped until it was dizzy, seeing stars, and unable to find its bearings.
Taking advantage of the Ghost Tiger being dizzy, three Blue Silver Vines quickly pounced up. One Blue Silver Vine coiled around the Ghost Tiger’s neck, one coiled around its two front paws, and one coiled around its two hind paws.
When the Ghost Tiger’s head cleared a bit, it found that it could no longer move. The three Blue Silver Vines were thick and powerful; no matter how it struggled, it could never break free.
At this moment, the Blue Silver Vine coiled around the Ghost Tiger’s neck exerted a little force, and the Ghost Tiger suddenly couldn’t catch its breath. Even though the Ghost Tiger opened its mouth wide and stuck out its tongue, panting heavily, it had no way to get air into its lungs.
Soon this Ghost Tiger rolled its eyes back!
Then, under the dragging of the Blue Silver Vines, the Ghost Tiger was transported toward the valley of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.
Before long, this Ghost Tiger Spirit Beast, three and a half meters long and weighing over a thousand catties, was delivered into the valley.
Now Zhu Zhuqing finally understood what it meant by her fourth spirit ring delivering itself to her doorstep in a moment.
Lu Chen had actually perceived this Ghost Tiger Spirit Beast from an unknown distance away and controlled the Blue Silver Vines to capture it.
This was simply miraculous!
Then Lu Chen chuckled and said: "This Ghost Tiger Spirit Beast has a cultivation level of about 8,000 years. Although it is a bit high for a fourth spirit ring, you possess two Spirit Bone and have consumed an Immortal Herb, so absorbing an 8,000-year spirit ring is more than enough."
Zhu Zhuqing answered firmly: "I will successfully absorb it!"
As her voice fell, Zhu Zhuqing walked over, killed the Ghost Tiger Spirit Beast, and once the spirit ring condensed, she sat cross-legged on the ground and began to absorb the fourth spirit ring.
