Chapter 143: Er Ming: Xiao Wu’s Fourth Spirit Ring at Least 10,000 Years? Don’t Be Ridiculous!

After hearing Er Ming's explanation, neither he nor Da Ming had expected that Tang San would actually be able to gather the necessary materials to revive Xiao Wu, although it wasn't exactly what they had imagined. Only the herb was the same, and the rest of the process was aided by the Sea God's Light. Initially, Tang San thought that to revive Xiao Wu, his Blue Silver Grass martial spirit would be ruined, but thanks to his protagonist's luck, his previous rings were replaced with ones over 50,000 years old.

Xiao Wu felt a bit disheartened upon hearing that reviving her mother would require ruining someone's martial spirit. It was an impossible demand—why would anyone do such a thing?

Su Ming asked, "Er Ming, how did you and Da Ming learn about this method of resurrection?"

Er Ming shot Su Ming a look, reluctant to burden Xiao Wu with more worries. He responded, "Well, Da Ming and I figured it out through our own research. Theoretically, the resurrection method should work, but we've never actually tested it."

Still not giving up, Er Ming turned to Xiao Wu and said, "Xiao Wu, you see how difficult the conditions for resurrection are. What makes you think this human can accomplish it?"

Xiao Wu, though she hadn't seen the Rinnegan Su Ming had written about in his diary, believed in his words. Since he mentioned it could revive her mother, she trusted him. Su Ming wouldn't lie in his diary—especially since he didn't know someone could read it.

Su Ming calmly added, "As long as Xiao Wu believes me, that's enough. When we reach the Star Lake, I'll show you and Da Ming my strength. Then you'll see that my method of resurrection is different and far simpler than what you've described. But one thing is the same—it still requires a vessel to hold Xiao Wu's mother's soul, but other than that, the process is much easier."

Er Ming immediately objected, "Even if you have a way to revive Xiao Wu's mother, didn't you say you need her body?"

Shaking his head, Su Ming replied, "I never said it had to be her exact body. Anything that can serve as a vessel will do. Don't worry, I'll figure that part out."

Su Ming's plan was simple: if the system rewarded him with Xiao Wu's mother's original body, that would be ideal. Otherwise, he could look for another vessel, such as another Soft Bone Rabbit's body. The body was just a medium—the soul was the most important part, similar to how Xiao Yan revived Yao Lao by finding another person's bones to host his spirit.

Xiao Wu, standing nearby, chose not to argue. She wholeheartedly believed that her brother Su Ming would succeed—he wouldn't let her down.

Er Ming, seeing Xiao Wu's unwavering trust in Su Ming, felt utterly helpless. He couldn't argue with her. In the end, he decided it would be best to leave it to Da Ming to make the final decision.

Just then, Xiao Wu turned to Su Ming and said, "Brother, I think I've reached level forty."

Su Ming's face lit up. "Really? Then quickly start forming your fourth spirit ring. With the Body Refining Technique I gave you, your fourth spirit ring should easily be 10,000 years old!"

Er Ming: …

At that moment, the Titan Giant Ape was speechless. Why does Su Ming keep saying such ridiculous things? I've never heard of a human spirit master's fourth ring being anything other than a thousand-year purple ring. And now he's claiming Xiao Wu will get a black 10,000-year ring? What a joke!

This time, Er Ming didn't bother arguing. He simply watched in silence, waiting for Xiao Wu's fourth spirit ring to appear. He was sure that once Xiao Wu saw the result, she'd realize whether Su Ming was telling the truth or just making things up. If it truly turned out to be a 10,000-year ring, maybe that meant Su Ming could really bring back Xiao Wu's mother.

Suppressing her excitement, Xiao Wu focused. Could her fourth spirit ring truly be 10,000 years old?

Following the same path as her mother, her fourth ring should be the Invincible Golden Body. Her mother's spirit ring had only been a thousand years, but if hers were 10,000, would the effect be much stronger?

Calming herself, Xiao Wu sat down and began to concentrate on forming her fourth spirit ring.

Meanwhile, Su Ming found himself growing bored. He couldn't exactly chat with the Titan Giant Ape—they weren't that close. So, with little else to do, he decided to start writing in his diary.

[Today, the Titan Giant Ape finally showed up, just as in the original story. It must have sensed Xiao Wu's presence and rushed over to meet her.]

As Su Ming wrote, Xiao Wu's vision filled with the diary's text. However, she was too busy forming her spirit ring to read it.

The other female leads, who knew about Xiao Wu's hidden abilities, began to grow puzzled. Didn't the system give Xiao Wu a skill to hide her soul beast aura? How did the Titan Giant Ape sense her?

Both Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were focused on the Titan Giant Ape when it first appeared, so they hadn't questioned it. But now, thinking back, they realized that Xiao Wu's soul beast aura should've been hidden. How had the Titan Giant Ape found her?

After some thought, they understood: Xiao Wu didn't just have a soul beast aura—she had a human aura too, among others. The Titan Giant Ape, being a 100,000-year soul beast, had a far sharper sense of smell than they did.

[I also took the chance to have Xiao Wu send a message to Er Ming, asking him to bring me along as well. This way, I can meet both Da Ming and Er Ming and test out some of my secret techniques. I need to see if I can actually harm the Titan Giant Ape and gain some real battle experience. My previous opponents have been far too weak!]

[When Er Ming showed up, everyone got ready for a fight. Partway through, to my surprise, Er Ming used his Gravity Domain, something I didn't expect at all. In the original story, he didn't use any such skill—he just forcefully took Xiao Wu away.]
