Three Soul Rings slowly formed from the lingering, purplish-black mist above the remains of the three Man Faced Demon Spiders.
Seeing that the three purple Soul Rings were forming separately, Luo Yu's black eyes showed a hint of disappointment. He sighed inwardly, "As expected, it won't work?"
"Wait!"
The subsequent change immediately perked Luo Yu up.
The three, nearly-formed purple Soul Rings seemed to develop a strange connection with each other. The purplish-black mist slowly gathered towards the center, and the unfinished Soul Rings began to attract and overlap like magnets.
Under Su Yaoyun's astonished gaze, the homologous purplish-black mist churned and converged, causing the three half-formed Soul Rings to simultaneously disappear. A single, deep black-purple Soul Ring slowly took shape, floating in the air.
The black-purple Soul Ring emanated a fluctuation far exceeding that of any single Man Faced Demon Spider. Within it, there seemed to be different, violent consciousnesses roaring, and its external shape also looked extremely unstable.
Luo Yu's lips curled into a smile. "Success!"
"Hey! You're not actually going to absorb that thing, are you?" Su Yaoyun asked, pointing incredulously at the merged Soul Ring.
"Yeah. I think I can handle a five-thousand-year one," Luo Yu nodded.
"No way! Don't be rash; it's not as simple as you think," Su Yaoyun immediately retorted, her voice filled with urgency.
Luo Yu shook his head. "If I don't absorb this Soul Ring, I'll have to make you waste more time finding a new one with me. I noticed your complexion hasn't been right since we got back. Let's just do this."
He noticed? Was he... worrying about me?
Su Yaoyun's delicate body trembled slightly. She touched her pale cheek with her slender fingers, and a warmth suddenly surged through her.
Her physical body, formed from a mix of immortal herbs and her soul's origin, had a fatal flaw and lacked battle strength. That woman had injured her mental strength to warn her, leaving her both physically and spiritually weak. She desperately needed to recuperate.
In just a moment of stunned silence, Luo Yu had already circulated his Soul Power and absorbed the black and purple Soul Ring that roared with beastly fury into his body.
"Not good!"
Su Yaoyun's expression changed drastically. Her plump waist moved swiftly to Luo Yu's side, intending to stop him, but it was already too late.
Biting her sexy red lips, she worriedly muttered, "You think you're the only one who's ever thought about fusing a Soul Ring? The problem is, absorbing a Soul Ring means facing the remaining resentment of the dead soul beast. One dose of resentment is already hard to handle, so who can withstand three?"
Unfortunately, Luo Yu couldn't hear any of this at the moment.
As the person involved, Luo Yu only felt a vast, cold, and violent aura suddenly surge into his body. Before he could react, his body was already pierced by a bone-chilling cold, as if trying to freeze all his blood.
Unclaimed energy was running amok everywhere, and overbearing, sinister energy was crashing against his meridians. Moreover, three bursts of violent mental fluctuations leaped out from the energy and rushed straight into Luo Yu's mind along his nerves.
"Hah!"
Luo Yu's teeth chattered, his body radiating a purplish-black light, enveloped in a faint red mist.
Su Yaoyun bit her lip, her light pink eyes filled with a mixture of worry and helplessness as she watched Luo Yu. She wanted to help, but there was nothing she could do. Absorbing a Soul Ring was something he had to conquer on his own.
With violent fluctuations of Soul Power, tiny beads of blood began to appear on Luo Yu's skin, vaporizing into a faint red mist.
Luo Yu's brows were furrowed, his lips pressed tightly together, and his body was in a state of constant convulsion, as if enduring unimaginable torture.
Ignoring the sensation of having his internal organs being torn apart by knives, Luo Yu's mental world was currently enduring the mental impact of the violent resentment left behind by three dead Man Faced Demon Spiders.
If it were only the resentment of one Man Faced Demon Spider, Luo Yu could handle it. But the simultaneous assault of three of them on his mind was causing a huge problem. Luo Yu felt his mental strength rapidly depleting in the struggle.
He suddenly realized something. It wasn't that merging Soul Rings was impossible, the problem was, who could withstand the resentment generated by the soul beasts after the merge?
Which was stronger, the resentful impact of a five-thousand-year-old soul beast, or the combined assault of three thousand-year-old soul beasts?
Perhaps directly absorbing a five-thousand-year-old Soul Ring would be simpler, and he wouldn't even have to go through the trouble of capturing three at once.
At the moment of crisis, the three Spirit Treasures that had been dormant within Luo Yu's body stirred, emitting a soft, gentle glow.
"How could I have forgotten about you?" Luo Yu instantly abandoned his mental resistance. The phantom images of the three Man Faced Demon Spiders, born from their grievances, instantly began to aggressively invade his mental world.
Whoosh!
Under some unseen call, three points of light, formed by the Spirit Treasures, shot towards the three vengeful demon spider phantoms.
Within his mental world, the Soul-Suppressing Hammer floated in the air, striking a golden-patterned, soul-stirring gong. Circles of mysterious energy rippled outwards. The three demon spider phantoms froze instantly, and in the next second, shattered into pieces under the impact of the waves.
The Brilliant Demon Banner, a deep, black-green, materialized from nothing, unleashing a powerful suction force that directly absorbed the remnants of the vengeful spirits into its depths.
All three Spirit Treasures were sacred artifacts that were specifically designed to counteract phantom souls. The three wraiths had no chance to resist.
His body returned to a state of calm. Under Luo Yu's mental control, the energy of his Soul Rings was cleansing and transforming his body. Furthermore, a portion of strange energy began to gather and coalesce on Luo Yu's back.
Seeing Luo Yu first fall into a moment of peril and then appear to be on the verge of successful absorption, Su Yaoyun lightly parted her red lips and exhaled, relaxing. "This little man seems to have some skill in courting death, after all."
One wave had barely subsided, and another rose.
Suddenly, Luo Yu's upper garment was instantly torn apart by an inexplicable energy. On his muscular back, four fist-sized bulges swelled on either side of his spine.
Pain appeared on Luo Yu's face.
Su Yaoyun's pink eyes contracted, and her expression became solemn.
However, the matter was far from over. A phantom of a brilliant Heavenly Sun, bearing star rings, instantly rose from Luo Yu's hunched back.
A deep, purplish-black first Soul Ring appeared beneath Luo Yu's feet. The sacred golden flames of his Martial Soul gathered on Luo Yu's back, concentrating on the bulges and burning fiercely.
"Ah!"
Luo Yu let out a low growl. He had thought he'd dealt with the resentment and that the Eight Spider Lances would soon manifest. However, the Candlelight Martial Soul's essence seemed to intensely dislike and disdain the Soul Bone produced by the Man Faced Demon Spider.
Sacred, imposing golden flames appeared to be burning and purifying the Eight Spider Lances that were about to emerge from his back. The burning sensation, which penetrated deep into his bones, caused Luo Yu excruciating pain, and his low voice sounded like a beast's roar.
"The Soul Ring has clearly been successfully attached. What's going on?" Su Yaoyun frowned, looking at Luo Yu, whose Martial Soul was suspended above him and whose back was covered in burning golden flames, and was filled with bewilderment.
Suddenly, the surrounding light dimmed silently, and even the golden luster of the flames on Luo Yu's back was concealed. Dense, boundless darkness swept over everything, and the fierce, evil aura descended upon this area.
"Who is it?" Su Yaoyun's alluring, pink eyes narrowed, and her fiery, delicate body stood proudly, facing the dark domain as if facing a great enemy.
A huge, massive Soul Beast slowly emerged from the shadows…
