Chapter 52: This is even more exciting than

A genius?

No!

It should be called a monster!

Dugu Yan no longer felt it was incredible; she felt it was unrealistic.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, who would believe this was the truth?

No wonder Grandpa told her to listen to him for everything, including something as important as obtaining her first spirit ring. One must know that he, the old man, was a Titled Douluo; would he not know what kind of spirit ring she was suitable for?

Only after seeing Su Linfeng's spirit ring configuration did Dugu Yan suddenly understand.

Grandpa was right.

Soon.

Under the siege of the Golden Generation, the Mountain-Swallowing Python that was coiling around Li Kai was already on its last breath.

And at this time.

Including Dugu Yan, the eyes of everyone in the Golden Generation were fixed on the nine terrifying chains of Su Linfeng.

Following a commotion in the rock cave.

A huge Mountain-Swallowing Python, with a body over seven meters long, was dragged out of the deep rock cave by Su Linfeng's Nine Luminaries God-Binding Lock, and its body was at least as thick as a small water vat.

*Boom!!! *

Following a roar.

The Mountain-Swallowing Python slammed directly into the canyon, stirring up countless dry bones and sand.

No matter how it hissed and struggled, it could not break free from Su Linfeng's Nine Luminaries God-Binding Lock!

"Uh..."

"It seems we all became bait."

Xie Yue's mouth curled, and he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, "Lin Feng's original goal should have been that big guy inside, but that Mountain-Swallowing Python seems to be over the limit; Dugu Yan can't use it either!"

"Phew~"

Li Kai also climbed up from the ground at this time, spat at the dying Mountain-Swallowing Python, and couldn't help but complain, "Damn! Almost strangled me to death! Although this guy doesn't have any special attributes, its size is definitely unique among snakes!"

As he spoke.

Li Kai then looked at Dugu Yan somewhat unnaturally.

Then he gave an awkward, silly laugh and tentatively asked, "Th-that, Sister Yan Yan, did Hu Liena and Zhang Ping say anything to you just now, like about me?"

"What?"

Dugu Yan was also pulled back to reality from her shock, looking blankly at Li Kai, "They didn't say anything, did they?"

*Phew! *

That's good!

Li Kai finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted; fortunately, he hadn't been betrayed.

At the same time, he followed Dugu Yan's gaze to Su Linfeng, who was walking over while dragging the giant Mountain-Swallowing Python, and then smiled, "You'll get used to it, Sister Yan Yan. We've all been through this before. As long as you don't treat Brother Linfeng as a human, everything becomes reasonable."

Dugu Yan: "..."

"Alright, Sister Yan Yan."

Li Kai said flatteringly to Dugu Yan with a heart full of guilt, "I've already tested it for you just now; this Mountain-Swallowing Python's age is close to four hundred years! It's just right for your spirit ring; you come and give it the final blow."

"Wait!"

Before Dugu Yan could get close, Su Linfeng's shout came from behind, "That Mountain-Swallowing Python is not even three hundred years old! It's not suitable to be her first spirit ring."

Su Linfeng explained the reason to everyone while walking.

Python-type spirit beasts are different from snake-type spirit beasts; you cannot judge their age solely by their size.

Because apart from their size advantage, they don't have any of the poison attributes that snake-type spirit beasts have, so don't be fooled by this guy's huge size; its age is not as long as it actually looks.

Moreover, the scales of a Mountain-Swallowing Python under three hundred years old are black; it will only molt into a mountain color after three hundred years. The longer the age, the lighter the color of its python scales will be, and it will completely molt into gold after ten thousand years.

Therefore, one cannot judge the age of a Mountain-Swallowing Python solely by its size.

Regarding the definition of spirit beast age, no one in the Golden Generation dared to object. If Su Linfeng said this Mountain-Swallowing Python was under three hundred years old, then it was under three hundred years old; he didn't even need to explain so much.

"Brother Su."

Hu Liena's gaze fell on the behemoth Su Linfeng was dragging behind him, "Then what is the age of this Mountain-Swallowing Python?"

Su Linfeng: "Five hundred and eleven years."

Hu Liena's mouth curled after hearing this, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "Only five hundred years, and it's already this big?"

"No wonder it can be called a Mountain-Swallowing Python; if it were at the millennial or ten-thousand-year level, who knows how terrifying..."

Before she could finish.

Hu Liena realized something was wrong.

She had just said "only" a moment ago; this is a spirit beast with five hundred years of cultivation!

"That's not right, Brother Linfeng!"

Zhang Ping also seemed to react and couldn't help but say, "Five hundred and eleven years, then this Mountain-Swallowing Python can't be Sister Yan Yan's first spirit ring either. You must know that according to the Spirit Master theoretical system, the limit age for a Spirit Master's first spirit ring is only four hundred and twenty-three years."

Now, not only Dugu Yan, but almost everyone looked at Su Linfeng.

What is he doing?

He isn't really going to let Dugu Yan absorb this Mountain-Swallowing Python, is he?

"That's just a theory."

Su Linfeng nodded and then looked at Dugu Yan very seriously, "Since you chose the path of Heaven Swallowing Dragon Transformation, you must bear the corresponding price, and the process is also quite painful. It's not too late for you to give up now."

Dugu Yan looked blankly at Su Linfeng, her heart also shaking violently.

Her first spirit ring is to absorb a spirit beast that exceeds the Spirit Master's limit by nearly a hundred years?

This sounds impossible to complete.

Is he sure he isn't joking?

Dugu Yan really had no bottom in her heart, but when she saw the two black spirit rings shining on Su Linfeng, she couldn't help but remember her grandfather's instructions: no matter how unreasonable his requests were, she must choose to believe in him.

And how would she know if it wouldn't work if she didn't try?

She had said she wanted to become the pride of the Dugu family.

"I won't give up."

Dugu Yan walked toward the Mountain-Swallowing Python with a firm gaze, "I don't believe that I, Dugu Yan, can't do what others can."

As the words fell.

The expressions of Hu Liena and the others all changed.

They thought to themselves: have these two gone crazy? Absorbing a spirit ring beyond the limit allows for no negligence; a slight carelessness and one will be backlashed by the spirit ring and explode to death.

Truly one dares to ask, and the other dares to agree.

They don't want their lives anymore!

Seeing Dugu Yan's determination, Su Linfeng nodded with satisfaction; at least she had a heart that wanted to change herself.

As long as her will was firm, he could help her complete the absorption of this Mountain-Swallowing Python.

Of course he had to help.

Otherwise, if Dugu Yan absorbed it on her own, the result would inevitably be as the Golden Generation had guessed.

Since he ate their food, he had to be soft-spoken.

Moreover, Dugu Yan would inevitably meet Tang San in the future; if she could successfully absorb the Mountain-Swallowing Python spirit ring, wouldn't it be even more exciting than "Mother Entanglement" when the two fought again?

"The Mountain-Swallowing Python's unique skill is Coiling Hunt; the python uses its powerful muscle strength to tightly coil around its prey until it suffocates."

Su Linfeng reminded, "When you absorb its spirit ring, you will not only be subjected to the pressure of physical strength but also undergo a dual test of the soul."

As he spoke.

Su Linfeng slowly released his Golden Flame Domain.

Gradually wrapping Dugu Yan inside.

This is...

Dugu Yan's whole body shook, and she looked at Su Linfeng with disbelief.

"Don't be distracted."

Su Linfeng reminded again, "Although a Spirit Master cannot be disturbed by external soul power when absorbing a spirit ring, my Golden Flame Domain is quite special; it can not only help you improve your own attributes in all aspects but also strengthen your spirit power. Next, you can only rely on yourself to fully absorb that spirit ring."

So that's it.

Seeing Su Linfeng release his domain, the Golden Generation finally understood.

No wonder he dared to let Dugu Yan absorb a five-hundred-year spirit beast; it turns out he had already planned it in his heart.

After Su Linfeng's bloodline awakened at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the Golden Flame Domain also evolved accordingly.

The twenty-five percent soul power boost and fifteen percent all-attribute boost of the Golden Flame Domain were no joke, plus that perverted self-healing ability; it could be said that five hundred years for a spirit beast was conservative.
