As Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and persisted, Yu Yuanzhen, waiting outside, shifted from his initial joy and pride to a sense of anxiety.
Fortunately, Yu Xiaogang did not persist for a full day and night this time.
Three hours passed, and the crimson halo that had been surrounding Yu Xiaogang gradually solidified, transforming into a spirit ring that descended upon his body.
With the spirit ring solidified, the mist of Soul Power enveloping Yu Xiaogang dissipated, revealing Yu Xiaogang, who was pale-faced and covered in cold sweat.
The figure of the little Dragon also appeared before everyone, and at this moment, the little Dragon had undergone yet another change.
It simply lay there quietly, but for some reason, everyone who saw the little Dragon's body felt a sense of awe rise from the bottom of their hearts.
It was as if the little Dragon were some deity descended from the heavens, holy and unattainable.
Before everyone could examine the little Dragon's condition in detail, its massive body transformed into a ball of light and merged into Yu Xiaogang's body.
Along with it, that crimson 100,000-year soul ring also disappeared.
"Xiaogang!"
Seeing this, Yu Yuanzhen rushed forward, supported the nearly collapsing Yu Xiaogang, and sent his Soul Power into Yu Xiaogang's body to check his condition.
After a quick check, Yu Yuanzhen let out a sigh of relief.
"Sect Master, how is he?"
The Grand Elder asked anxiously, while Bibi Dong, standing to the side, was also filled with worry.
"He's fine. His meridians were stretched to their limit; if he had persisted any longer, I fear his meridians would have ruptured."
Yu Yuanzhen supported Yu Xiaogang, helping him lean back more comfortably.
Sensing his son's condition, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't help but sigh; his son had clearly learned from the lesson of his first time absorbing a spirit ring.
The damage caused to Yu Xiaogang's meridians by absorbing this god-bestowed spirit ring was almost the same as when he absorbed his First Soul Ring back then.
But back then, it was purely due to Yu Xiaogang's good luck.
Whereas this time, Yu Xiaogang had prepared thoroughly.
He knew exactly where his limits lay.
Therefore, once he reached his limit, he stopped immediately.
Furthermore, Yu Xiaogang had controlled the Soul Power within the spirit ring extremely well.
When Yu Xiaogang absorbed his First Soul Ring back then, he was covered in blood and on the verge of death.
That was because, while absorbing the spirit ring, the Soul Power had not only impacted his Meridians but also his body, causing severe trauma and leaving him covered in blood.
However, for a Spirit Master, as long as physical injuries didn't involve missing limbs, they could be treated.
Even so, it had taken Yu Xiaogang a long time to recover.
But this time, Yu Xiaogang had managed to control that Soul Power, which had wanted to harm his body, preventing it from causing him even the slightest bit of damage.
In other words, absorbing this god-bestowed spirit ring was similar to his experience absorbing his Thousand-Year First Soul Ring back then.
It was just that Yu Xiaogang was no longer the same person he was back then, so only his meridians were stretched, while his body suffered no damage at all.
Yu Yuanzhen couldn't help but feel admiration for this level of control.
"Truly worthy of being my son, Yu Yuanzhen; simply amazing!"
After confirming that Yu Xiaogang's body was fine, the Grand Elder and Bibi Dong finally set their worried hearts at ease.
The worry on the Grand Elder's face vanished, replaced by irrepressible joy.
A 100,000-year sixth spirit ring—this was a 100,000-year sixth spirit ring!
Good heavens, since the birth of Spirit Masters on the Douluo Continent, this was a first, an event destined to be recorded in history and passed down forever.
And as this event spread, their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would be forever etched into the Spirit history of the Douluo Continent.
Even if their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect were to perish one day in the future, it would remain the same.
Because of their Young Sect Master's existence, this generation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would even be a focus of attention for future generations.
He would be able to bask in the reflected glory, which felt like a dream to the Grand Elder.
Yu Yuanzhen's voice was not soft, so the people from Spirit Hall nearby heard it clearly.
With just a little thought, they could imagine the peril of Yu Xiaogang's spirit ring absorption.
At the same time, they felt heartfelt admiration for Yu Xiaogang's resilience and judgment.
If it were them, most people would likely have lost their breath once they reached the 100,000-year mark.
In that case, who would still think about continuing to increase the age of the spirit ring?
Yet Yu Xiaogang not only continued but also stopped exactly when he reached his limit.
With this ability, it's no wonder he is the number one person of the younger generation on the Douluo Continent today.
Tang Hao truly wasn't wronged for being defeated by Yu Xiaogang.
With the spirit ring absorption complete, the goal of Yu Xiaogang's group had been achieved.
Although Yu Xiaogang hadn't been injured this time, Yu Yuanzhen still decided to let Yu Xiaogang have a good rest.
Thus, Yu Yuanzhen placed Yu Xiaogang on his back, preparing to carry him back to their residence.
Qian Xunji watched Yu Xiaogang preparing to leave; he wanted to know what Spirit Ability Yu Xiaogang had obtained, but now was not the right time.
After thinking for a moment, Qian Xunji walked to Bibi Dong's side and patted her on the shoulder.
"Dong'er, go follow them and see."
"In our Spirit Hall, you are the most suitable one."
You are the only one suitable to follow and investigate what Yu Xiaogang's Spirit Ability really is.
This was Qian Xunji's meaning.
But when his words fell into Bibi Dong's ears, they became, "You are the most suitable one to follow and take care of him."
Thinking of this, Bibi Dong's face quickly turned red. She didn't speak, just nodded, and then followed in Yu Yuanzhen's footsteps.
Qian Xunji watched his Disciple faithfully working for Spirit Hall with a look of gratification, marveling at his own good judgment and the great success of his education.
On the other side, the members of Spirit Hall present had heard Qian Xunji's words and also saw the look of gratification on his face after Bibi Dong left.
Then, the worshipers all simultaneously wore an expression of having seen a ghost. Although Qian Daoliu wasn't as exaggerated as them, he also widened his eyes.
Was this still the same Qian Xunji they knew?
The group of worshipers had sensed the feelings between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang.
Watching the two interact, Qian Daoliu recalled his own experience of unrequited love in the past, and combined with the complicated, inseparable relationship Yu Xiaogang now had with Spirit Hall, he really couldn't bear to say anything.
Seeing that their big brother remained silent, Gold Crocodile Douluo and the other worshipers were even less likely to say anything more.
Originally, according to their thoughts, Qian Xunji would definitely not have agreed.
Given his personality, he was probably still looking forward to the scene where he would cultivate Bibi Dong to fiercely defeat Yu Xiaogang in the future.
But now, they were surprised to find that Qian Xunji was even more proactive than them, and even more so than Bibi Dong herself.
"So, is it that I know too little about Ji'er, or has he changed in these past two years?"
Qian Daoliu racked his brains but couldn't figure out why.
However, since Qian Xunji, the biggest obstacle, supported it, there was nothing more to say.
Thus, a wonderful misunderstanding was born.
