Kapitel 431: Chapter 431: Meeting Again
...
After the forced breakthrough last time, his body had completely recovered from the injuries.
With his abnormal recovery ability, his injuries healed on their own within just one week.
After all, as a transmigrator, he had once possessed an external system (where he was abandoned within span of half an hour). Zeng Yi had previously mentioned having an outstanding physique, so this was quite normal.
After reflecting on the previous incident, Zeng Yi realized that it was quite difficult to condense a spirit ring on his own.
It seemed that he had already embarked on the path of hunting spirit beasts to obtain spirit rings. It was too idealistic to want to self-condense spirit rings halfway through this path.
Just like in martial arts novels, if the protagonist coincidentally obtained a divine skill, they would have to abandon their previous cultivation and start anew if they wanted to switch to it.
With this thought, Zeng Yi felt hopeful again.
Did he have to abandon his current spirit power and start cultivation from scratch?
But the problem was, how could he dissipate his spirit power and start from scratch? Zeng Yi wasn't sure about that.
Moreover, the spirit rings were the main issue!
Zeng Yi activated his body's spirit power, and four spirit rings appeared around him — Purple, Purple, Purple, and Black.
Looking at these spirit rings, Zeng Yi felt somewhat helpless.
Three rings with a 1,000 year limit and one with a 10,000 year limit—a spirit master having such abnormal spirit ring configuration would shock anyone if they were seen.
Tang San, who had made a name for himself in the continent by shining in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, had only shocked everyone with his fourth spirit ring, which was of the 10,000 year level.
But Zeng Yi not only had a 10,000 year fourth ring, but also all other remaining spirit rings were at the thousand-year level. He didn't even have a single hundred-year ring. Wasn't that even more terrifying?
If he gave up on his current idea and continued on his current path, Zeng Yi would still become stronger!
The fifth spirit ring was of the 50,000 year level, the sixth spirit ring might be of the100,000 year level, and the seventh, eighth, and ninth spirit rings all had the potential to be 100,000 year spirit rings!
A Titled Douluo who could achieve this level of power would already be awe-inspiring.
But Zeng Yi knew that this was still far from enough!
Compared to the Child of Destiny, Tang San, he fell far short!
Although Zeng Yi currently had stronger strength than Tang San, Tang San had a Twin Martial Spirit!
When both of his martial spirits were cultivated and spirit rings were attached to his Clear Sky Hammer, the number of rings would likely be double that of Zeng Yi's, and his spirit power would be even more profound.
Zeng Yi could only progress step by step, but in the end, he would definitely not surpass Tang San's Twin Martial Spirits.
Although it was nothing to lose to Tang San, considering that he and Tang San were not enemies, it was still embarrassing to be held in high regard and admired by the Seven Monsters of Shrek as their elder brother, but in the end, his strength couldn't match up to Tang San's.
Perhaps it was his desire to surpass that was playing tricks on him. After all, he was a transmigrator who roughly knew the direction of the plot and had a good external system.
All these factors together had already determined that he would embark on the path of a spirit master. If he couldn't become the strongest, then it would be too much of a failure!
Thus, just like ordinary spirit masters, it was impossible for him to surpass his limits by following the usual path of cultivation.
To become stronger, he had to endure inhumane trials and undertake unimaginable training!
If he decided to dissipate his cultivation and start anew, he wouldn't hesitate to abandon the strong power he had obtained after more than a decade of hard work, especially if he could create a unique cultivation method.
Starting from scratch would only require a few more years of training.
Zeng Yi didn't strive for speed. Even if he couldn't keep up with the cultivation speed of the main characters, it didn't matter.
After all, there were countless troubles that he didn't want to get involved in.
If he could peacefully retire and cultivate for several decades, what would be the harm? After everything was settled, he could suddenly reveal himself and astonish everyone; it would be great.
Moreover, there was only one task that the system had given him, which was to become a God at the Level 100.
Once he achieved the God Realm, Zeng Yi would be able to leave this Douluo World.
If his luck was good enough, maybe he could return to the original world.
So, he didn't need to worry about anything else. He just needed to focus on cultivating and becoming stronger!
But what if he dissipated his cultivation and his body became crippled, unable to continue cultivation? What would he do then?
As he pondered this question, Zeng Yi couldn't help but frown.
Forget it, why think so much?
He didn't have any enemies. Even if he lost his strength and became a useless person, so what?
With the money Zeng Yi had won from the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, he could live peacefully for the rest of his life.
With his temperament and appearance, even if he became an ordinary person without spirit power, finding a strong spirit master as a wife, someone to rely on in the background, would be simple.
So, he just needed to take the leap.
As for how to do it?
First, he had to get rid of the four spirit rings on his body.
For a moment, the idea of "exploding the rings" popped into Zeng Yi's mind.
Zeng Yi remembered that "exploding the rings" seemed to be a self-created skill by Tang San's father, Tang Hao and grandfather, Tang Chen.
It seemed to stimulate the body's potential by breaking the limitation of the spirit rings, enabling one to obtain powerful strength.
Zeng Yi vaguely recalled that in the original story, Tang San seemed to have used this move to withstand the attack of Qian Renxue, who had become a god with divine power, even with his power as a Titled Douluo.
This demonstrated the horrifying power of exploding the rings.
Of course, exploding the rings wasn't too difficult, and Zeng Yi could manage it.
This spirit skill invented by Tang Hao wasn't because he exploded the spirit rings, but rather, after the rings exploded, he controlled and utilized the overflowing berserk spirit power, stimulating his body to tap into the potential and gain power beyond common sense.
But Zeng Yi didn't need those techniques.
He only needed to get rid of the spirit rings.
However, this dangerous task couldn't be experimented with here.
After all, this was the Star Dou Forest, and if he lost his power, he wouldn't survive even a day in this terrifying place.
"So, it's better to leave the Star Dou Forest first." Zeng Yi's mind flashed with understanding as he slapped his leg while sitting on the ground, then stood up.
However, just as he was about to leave, the roar of a spirit beast came from outside.
A powerful aura transmitted itself, causing Zeng Yi's body to tremble involuntarily.
Feeling that a spirit beast was approaching his location, Zeng Yi couldn't help but feel helpless.
"How many times is this? Why do foolish spirit beasts always want to attack me?"
Zeng Yi stayed deep in the Star Dou Forest, where spirit beasts were as common as hair on an ox's back. Almost every day, he would be attacked by them.
But this time, the spirit beast that came looking for trouble made Zeng Yi feel tremendous pressure.
It wasn't an ordinary spirit beast—its strength was at least at the level of a 50,000 year cultivation!
"Damn it! I want to see if that foolish spirit beast dares to act unruly in my territory!"
Zeng Yi cursed inwardly and picked up his long knife before walking out of the tree hole.
...
Outside.
Zeng Yi raised his head and looked at the massive silhouette in front of him. His mouth hung open wide, and his eyes were filled with shock and surprise.
Wasn't this the Thorny Armored Beast he nearly killed half a year ago, which had a cultivation of over 50,000 years?
Seeing this spirit beast, Zeng Yi felt a retreat in his heart.
Although he was confident in his own strength, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to defeat this Thorny Armored Beast. The only reason he was able to defeat it last time was because the spirit beast was heavily injured.
Faced with its full strength, Zeng Yi lacked confidence.
Looking at this spirit beast, Zeng Yi couldn't help feeling nervous.
Did this big guy recover and come for revenge?
As his gaze continued to descend, he noticed a small Thorny Armored Beast standing next to the large one.
Seeing this little guy, Zeng Yi secretly resented it.
This little fellow actually didn't understand gratitude and returned hostility for kindness!
Did it not know who protected it and its mother for the past six months while she was recovering from her injuries?
Zeng Yi cursed inwardly, but he immediately started looking for an opportunity to escape.
He wouldn't foolishly fight this spirit beast; his strength was enough to escape without being stopped by it.
Zeng Yi looked at this 50,000 year Thorny Armored Beast. Its eyes, which were nearly the size of a human head, stared at him, making Zeng Yi feel his scalp go numb.
Zeng Yi awkwardly smiled and said, "Uh, it seems like you've recovered well. I won't disturb you then. Goodbye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Yi immediately vanished from the spot and quickly ran backward.
Roar~
A roar came from behind him.
This made Zeng Yi pause involuntarily.
He didn't sense any anger in that beast's roar.
Moreover, he didn't feel any killing intention from the spirit beast towards him.
This made Zeng Yi stop in his tracks and turn to face the two Thorny Armored Beasts.
Could it be that these two spirit beasts didn't come for revenge?
Or perhaps they actually came to express gratitude for his protection?
