Chapter 7 Return to Nottingham
The man was wearing a black robe, and the moonlight filtered through the branches and leaves, illuminating his tall and imposing figure. Although his face was not visible, his aura was as deep as an abyss.
This person is none other than Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo, and Tang San's father!
With his eyes lowered, Tang Hao gazed at Tang San not far below and muttered to himself:
"Very good...not bad."
"The third sister has finally obtained her first spirit ring..."
After a moment of silence, he slowly raised his head, gazing at the sky, his eyes rippling with starlight, and said in a deep voice, "Ah Yin... do you know?"
"Our child possesses twin martial souls."
"He is destined to walk a path different from ordinary people... Don't worry, he will definitely surpass me and then personally destroy the Spirit Hall to avenge you."
"I haven't dared to visit you all these years..."
"It's not that I forgot, but that I feel guilty."
"Back then, I knew you were a spirit beast incarnation and had long been coveted by the Spirit Hall, yet I still insisted on bringing you back to the Clear Sky Sect, which led to your identity being exposed and ultimately being hunted down by Qian Xunji and his men..."
"It's all my fault... I... I'm sorry!"
"Don't worry, when Xiao San's soul power reaches around level 50, I will bring him to see you. At that time, I will let him absorb the soul bone you left behind."
As he finished speaking, Tang Hao's voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.
…………
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Several hours later, the cave gradually fell silent.
The blue-gold light dissipated, and the flowing light on the stone wall slowly receded.
Everything seemed to have returned to normal.
In the center of the stone chamber, Tang Chuan slowly opened his eyes.
Just then, a blue-gold light flashed in his pupils for a moment, as if there were faint sparks of electricity within them, but then disappeared into the depths, returning to calm.
Looking down at his hands, Tang Chuan's eyes flashed with shock and astonishment.
"This is……"
He closed his eyes and channeled his spiritual energy into his body.
Upon this discovery, he was immediately shaken to his core!
Because he discovered that all the meridians in his body had undergone a qualitative change!
The outline of each meridian clearly shows a blue-gold light.
The soul power flowing within it was no longer the initial pale white, but a rich blue-gold that was almost condensed into liquid!
Moreover, the density and purity of this soul power are incomparable to the thin soul power of the previous level.
Tang Chuan could clearly feel that with each breath, his soul power flowed through his meridians like a torrent, his blood and qi were boiling, and his limbs and bones were filled with unprecedented surging energy!
What surprised him even more was that he was slightly taller than last night, with a more upright frame, wider shoulders and back, and noticeably stronger chest and arm muscles.
The boy's body, which had been still somewhat childish, now possessed a greater sense of strength and sharpness.
Tang Chuan murmured in a daze, his voice filled with barely suppressed excitement and disbelief:
"My soul power... actually jumped directly from level one... to level ten?"
"As expected of a 100,000-year-old soul bone. If I absorb another soul ring right now, my soul power level will definitely continue to increase significantly."
Having thoroughly read the original work, Tang Chuan was naturally very clear that when a Soul Master's Soul Power reaches its current level cap, if they do not obtain the corresponding Soul Ring and continue cultivating, their Soul Power level cannot be further increased. However, their Soul Power will accumulate.
When you obtain a soul ring and enter the next stage, the accumulated soul power will explode, and the soul power will also rise to the appropriate level.
After a brief glance around, the stone chamber had fallen silent, while the waterfall outside still roared, and a faint trace of life remained in the air.
Tang Chuan's gaze sharpened, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he muttered to himself:
"Judging by the time, Tang San should be absorbing his first spirit ring soon."
"I have to leave here as soon as possible, otherwise, if that old guy Tang Hao suddenly comes back, I don't know how I'll explain it to him."
To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Tang Chuan quickly walked to the stone platform, carefully put away the life seed of Ah Yin in the small flowerpot, and wrapped it tightly in his arms.
One last look back at the empty stone chamber.
"Mother, it's time for us to leave."
After saying that, he turned around and, without further hesitation, leaped out of the waterfall and stepped into the forest where the morning light was just beginning to break.
Sunlight streamed through the clouds, falling on his now upright and slender back.
…………
Half a day later, the sunlight gradually shifted westward, casting oblique rays on the heavy stone gate of Notting College, revealing two swaying figures.
As soon as Tang Chuan returned to the academy, he noticed two figures gradually becoming clearer in the distance.
One of them was a teenager, dressed in blue with short hair and a clear, bright face. The other was a middle-aged man, pale as a sheet, with unsteady steps, his left arm hanging limply at his sides, and his right leg dragging on the ground.
The two of them were Tang San and the Grandmaster, who was still suffering from snake venom.
Looking at the scene before him, Tang Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure.
Immediately afterward, he took a step forward and went to meet them, with a perfectly measured look of surprise on his face, pretending that he knew nothing.
"Huh? What's going on here?" Tang Chuan asked.
Upon hearing this, Tang San looked up at his brother, a hint of weariness flashing across his face. After a moment, he explained in a low voice:
"Teacher... was poisoned by the datura snake while helping me hunt it down."
After saying that, he gently helped Yu Xiaogang up, his forehead glistening with sweat.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the master's purplish and weak face. A half-smile appeared on his lips, but he said nothing more.
He simply said, "Oh? Master, didn't you always boast about how powerful and professional you are? How come you couldn't even defeat a hundred-year-old soul beast at a crucial moment?"
Upon hearing this, Tang San's expression froze, and he hesitated to speak.
The master, however, was furious, his face flushed, and he was panting heavily. He gritted his teeth and retorted angrily:
"What do you know? I got poisoned while protecting my mistress!"
"A mere hundred-year-old soul beast, if not for my safety, could it be my match?"
Having said that, the master waved his hand dismissively, his face turning ashen, and said, "Third brother, don't waste your breath on him, quickly help me back to my room to rest!"
Tang San nodded slightly and quickly helped the master walk into the academy.
…………
A few minutes later, Tang San carefully helped Master back into the academy, and the two of them stopped in front of the innermost gate of the dormitory building.
The master coughed lightly and pushed open the door to enter.
Tang San immediately followed and helped him to sit down by the bed.
"Teacher, take a rest first, I'll go get you some hot water." Tang San turned to leave, but was stopped by Master.
"Wait a minute." Yu Xiaogang took a slightly worn book from the bedside drawer and handed it to Tang San.
"Take this book," the master said, his voice serious yet slightly weak. "From today onward, you must practice meditation according to the methods described in this book every day."
