After a fierce battle, the violent Furious Fire Cang Wolf was finally slain.
At this point, Yan was also breathing heavily, exhausted.
Yue Guan walked over, feeling deeply gratified.
He had watched the entire battle, observing Yan's performance closely.
A Furious Fire Cang Wolf with twenty thousand years of cultivation was harder to deal with than a soul beast of the same age.
Because that creature was both offensive and defensive, and possessed a powerful fire attribute.
Yan was very clever, knowing how to leverage his strengths and avoid his weaknesses during battle, thus maximizing his advantages and delivering a fatal blow to the beast.
Moments later, a cloud of black mist slowly rose from the corpse of the Furious Fire Cang Wolf, gradually condensing into a soul ring that glowed with black light.
"Yan, hurry up and absorb the soul ring. I'll protect you," Yue Guan said.
"Mm."
Yan walked to the black soul ring, sat down cross-legged, adjusted his state, and began absorbing it.
As the energy from the soul ring slowly flowed into his body, Yan felt an incredibly domineering force violently crashing into his body and soul.
It was a sensation both painful and intoxicating, as if every cell in his body had been activated at that moment, greedily devouring the immense energy.
Yue Guan stood aside, his gaze fixed on Yan, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
Although Yan had consumed three immortal herbs, making his constitution far superior to ordinary people, this was still his first ten-thousand-year soul ring, and its age had reached twenty thousand years. The energy contained within it was immense, beyond the limit that an ordinary soul master could absorb for a fifth soul ring.
However, Yan's performance was beyond Yue Guan's expectations.
Despite his body and soul trembling under the impact of the soul ring's energy, and despite moments of pain flashing across his face, he gritted his teeth and persevered.
As time passed, Yan's aura gradually stabilized, clearly beginning to adapt to and control the powerful force.
Only then did Yue Guan feel a little relieved.
Three hours later, when the last bit of the soul ring's energy was absorbed, Yan slowly opened his eyes.
His gaze now shimmered with a fiery light, as if flames were dancing within his eyes.
Yue Guan saw this and smiled with joy.
"Yan, you've finally absorbed the soul ring. How do you feel?"
Yan smiled and said, "The energy of that Furious Fire Cang Wolf was incredibly domineering. I feel like I'm full of power."
"Mm, not bad. So, how much has your soul power increased?"
"It's gone up by two levels. I'm now at level fifty-two."
"As expected, it was a twenty-thousand-year fire attribute soul beast."
Yue Guan nodded with satisfaction and then asked, "You're now a true Soul King. What's the fifth soul skill it granted you?"
Yan extended his right hand, looking at his clenched fist, clearly feeling an unprecedented amount of power coursing through him.
"This fifth soul skill perfectly combines the Furious Fire Cang Wolf's strength with the flame attribute. I call it 'Violent Magma Fist.'"
"Violent Magma Fist? That sounds interesting."
Yan explained, "When I use this move, my entire body's strength and flame attribute are increased by a hundred percent. Scorching magma, accompanied by violent power, surges from my fist. This move has extremely strong destructive power, especially in terms of its explosive force and penetration. Furthermore, the closer the distance, the higher its attack power."
Yan finished speaking and clenched his right fist once again.
His entire right arm seemed to be infused with an immense force, the muscle definition becoming more apparent and expanding slightly.
At the same time, a strong soul power fluctuation emanated from him, causing the surrounding air to vibrate.
To demonstrate the power of this soul skill, Yan walked over to a massive rock.
He took a deep breath and then struck the hard rock with a powerful punch.
The seemingly indestructible rock was effortlessly punched through by Yan's fist, as if made of paper, leaving a hollow burnt by the scorching magma.
Seeing this scene, a trace of shock flashed in Yue Guan's eyes, and he smiled, saying:
"Yan, the penetration power of your fifth soul skill is exceptionally strong. Even a soul master with ten levels higher than you might not be able to withstand this blow. It can be used for close combat and defense, making it a powerful attack and defense skill."
Yan nodded and, with a bit of regret, said:
"This move is indeed powerful, but it also has a significant drawback: it consumes an enormous amount of soul power. With my current soul power, I may only be able to use it three times in one day."
Hearing this, Yue Guan chuckled and reassured him.
"That's normal; after all, the stronger the move, the greater the soul power consumption. However, you don't need to worry too much. As your strength continues to rise, I believe you'll be able to use this move more freely."
"Mm. I will continue to work hard."
Yan thought to himself, if he could win the Soul Master Competition, the most likely reward he would get would be the Exploding Burning Flame Right Arm Bone.
If that were the case, using this soul skill in the state released by the soul bone would make its destructive power even more terrifying.
Then, Yan and Yue Guan left the Star Dou Forest together, heading toward Soul Arena City.
Time flew by, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.
At this point, Tang San had already stayed inside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for half a year.
He had successfully developed an antidote, effectively suppressing the poison in Dugu Bo's body, and had earned Dugu Bo's trust.
One day, Dugu Bo came to find Tang San again.
Little Monster, you've been here for half a year already. My poison has almost been cured, and it's time to send you back. Give me back the pill bead."
Hearing this, Tang San was very happy. He smiled slightly and took out the snake pill that Dugu Bo had given him.
However, as he was about to leave, he felt somewhat reluctant.
The precious medicinal herbs surrounding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye were not something he would encounter elsewhere.
Tang San tentatively asked.
"Before I leave, can I take some herbs with me?"
Previously, with Dugu Bo's permission, Tang San had already picked a Purple Gold Thorn Vine and consumed it.
The Purple Gold Thorn Vine was just an ordinary immortal herb, but it had helped Tang San increase his soul power by almost three levels.
Additionally, he had been cultivating with Dugu Bo's snake pill by the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for half a year, which also gave him some progress.
All these factors had caused his soul power to increase from level thirty-four when he first entered to level thirty-nine now.
[Note: The Shrek Seven Devils Will only absorbed ordinary immortal herbs, so their increases were not as large. If they don't absorbed immortal herbs, their combat strength would be too low to even enter the finals, leaving them no chance to be defeated by Yan. Moreover, the fourth soul ring of the weaker Tang San was not ten-thousand-year level.]
When Dugu Bo heard that Tang San wanted to take some herbs, he was momentarily stunned.
He knew that Tang San was a rare talent in the field of alchemy, even surpassing him in some ways.
Those herbs were his treasures, and in the past, someone had broken into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye and taken many of his precious immortal herbs, which made him more cautious and wary.
"What's this? I've cured the poison in your body, and you still hesitate to give me a few herbs? Don't worry, I won't take them from you for nothing."
