Su Wen suppressed the remnant soul of the Void Silver Moon Tapir, corroding it with the power of visualization, and Spiritual Power refined and absorbed the power within this remnant soul.
As the Martial Spirit refined its Spirit Ring essence, the energy contained within this remnant soul could also be refined by Su Wen, used to enhance his own Spiritual Power.
Utilizing the energy that permeated the Sea of Consciousness through the Martial Spirit Space, it split into two strands. One swiftly rushed into Su Wen's Phantom Eye, while the other merged into Su Wen's Sea of Consciousness. At the same time, Su Wen felt his eyes being nourished, similar to the feeling he had when he initially consumed Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew.
After integrating this power, the Phantom Eye seemed even more powerful, with silver noble patterns covering the originally splendid vertical pupil, making the entire pupil appear extremely illusory.
At the same time, Su Wen could sense with his Spiritual Power that a space seemed to have opened up within the Phantom Eye.
No, not just the Phantom Eye, but also his other eyes, the three eyes collectively connecting to another space.
This absorption surpassed any of Su Wen's previous Spirit Ring absorptions in terms of time.
Two and a half days later.
The blood on Su Wen's body had already scabbed over, his bones continuously crackling as his internal injuries rapidly healed.
Opening his eyes, Su Wen saw the relieved faces of the crowd, and Ning Rongrong, whose face seemed to still bear traces of tears.
"Brother Xiaowen, you scared us to death," Ning Rongrong said with a frightened expression.
"I didn't expect that the combination of the Void Silver Moon Tapir's Spiritual and spatial attributes could achieve this," Su Wen voiced his speculation.
"Knowing it's a sure death, sealing one's own Spiritual Power into the Spirit Ring, and counterattacking during absorption? Mutual destruction?" Gu Rong frowned, evidently unfamiliar with such a concept.
Dugu Bo also shook his head, indicating he had never heard of it.
"And, moreover, being able to compress a large amount of Soul Power within the Spirit Ring, using the Spirit Ring to inject it into a Spirit Master's body, and bursting the Spirit Master?" Both Titled Douluo found this somewhat absurd.
Su Wen chuckled, "That's because normal Spirit Masters absorb Spirit Rings according to their level of endurance. Even if remnants of a soul are fused into the Spirit Ring, like that Void Silver Moon Tapir, it's unlikely to pose a real threat to a Spirit Saint. The greater shock of Soul Power can be forcibly endured."
In essence, when it comes down to it, after reaching the ten-thousand-year level, the greatest threshold for absorbing Spirit Rings is actually the strength of Spiritual Power, while the body's capacity for endurance comes second.
Moreover, all of them possess Soul Power quality of forty-five thousand years. With a greater quantity, there is a much higher chance of forcibly enduring the impact of Spirit Ring Soul Power contained in a normal fifty-thousand-year-old Spirit Ring than enduring it normally.
However, Su Wen is different.
He is just a Spirit Ancestor; only after absorbing the Spirit Ring will he become a Spirit King.
The Void Silver Moon Tapir may not know Su Wen's confidence, but that doesn't stop it from looking down on him, intending to perish together in this way.
"Well, this possibility cannot be ruled out. Of course, the intelligence of this Void Silver Moon Tapir is also a significant factor," Dugu Bo nodded, acknowledging Su Wen's statement, but also pointing out that these ideas must be based on the intelligence of the Spirit Beast itself.
A fifty-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast already has its own thoughts, able to think independently rather than act solely on physiological instinct, and a Spirit Beast exceeding fifty thousand years old is basically comparable to humans in intelligence.
This Void Silver Moon Tapir may only be forty-five thousand years old, but it possesses intelligence surpassing that of a fifty-thousand-year-old Spirit Beast. Its Spiritual attributes are indeed powerful, allowing it to successfully seal its Spiritual Power into the Spirit Ring.
However, unfortunately for it, it was eventually successfully absorbed by Su Wen.
"Xiaowen, is the Spirit Skill as you expected?" Dugu Bo asked.
The others also perked up, curious about the Spirit Skill Su Wen obtained this time.
Su Wen nodded and didn't conceal anything, revealing the situation of his Spirit Skill.
"My fifth Spirit Skill inherits the fundamental ability of the Void Silver Moon Tapir, Void Shuttle. While completing the absorption of the Spirit Ring, I also gained a phantom realm, which allows me to shuttle between reality and illusion."
This time, Su Wen truly didn't conceal anything, informing everyone of his Spirit Skill's abilities.
However, he didn't explain everything clearly, such as where his phantom realm is located or if there are any limitations to such shuttling.
Dugu Bo nodded, quite satisfied with Su Wen's Spirit Skill.
"A Spatial Attribute Spirit Skill of over forty thousand years, I suppose the shuttling ability won't be lacking. This way, you'll have a means of survival in the future."
Su Wen nodded, admitting that this was indeed correct.
If he were to encounter another inexplicable interception like Huyan Zhen, Su Wen would at least have the opportunity to use the intervals between antagonistic remarks to shuttle and escape.
Moreover, the main advantage is that Su Wen's Phantom Eye has the ability to provide warnings. Combined with this fifth Spirit Skill, his survival abilities are even more outstanding.
"Now, only Xiao Zhan and his daughter's Spirit Rings remain. Should we continue searching here on Evil Spirit Island or return to the Continent and venture into the depths of the Flame Mountain Range?"
"We're already deep in the heart of the primeval forest here; let's explore this area thoroughly before leaving."
After all, Evil Spirit Island is just a small island surrounded by the ocean. The chance of encountering powerful fire attribute Spirit Beasts is not high. If they truly exist, they should be very conspicuous, and they would have sensed them long ago.
However, there are indeed many rare species of Spirit Beasts here that are rarely seen on the Continent, so they are planning to explore the depths.
Upon their return, what they have seen this time will become part of their knowledge. If there are loved ones in need of similar Spirit Rings in the future, they won't have to go to great lengths to find them.
Two days later, the group left Evil Spirit Island.
"If the powerful sea Spirit Beasts around are indeed gathering because of the Void Silver Moon Tapir, then our hunting of the Void Silver Moon Tapir should cause these sea Spirit Beasts to disperse."
"What's worrying is that these sea Spirit Beasts might cause trouble along the coast before dispersing."
The abilities of ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Beasts are still very formidable.
Especially sea Spirit Beasts, they have home advantage in the deep sea and also along the coast. Perhaps the casual outbreak of a Spirit Skill could trigger a terrifying tsunami.
"The Void Silver Moon Tapir has just fed on their nightmares, so this situation shouldn't occur in the short term, but we should still be cautious," Xiao Zhan said. "After I finish absorbing the Spirit Ring, let's make a trip to Blazing City to inform Tianyang."
Dugu Bo and Gu Rong nodded.
Blazing City isn't far from Eastsea City, so Huo Tianyang is indeed convenient for handling this matter.
On the return journey, the group encountered several attacks from sea Spirit Beasts again.
However, unfortunately, it seemed that the whales along the way had already been hunted when they arrived, and they didn't obtain any Whale Glue again.
Back on land, Ning Rongrong stretched lazily. "Being on land is much more comfortable."
The feeling of being on a boat is uncomfortable, especially with the salty sea breeze. It's bearable for a short while, but enduring it for days or even weeks is quite uncomfortable.
