Tang San had already been at Nuoding Primary Spirit Master Academy for a month, and he already completely controlled everything Tang San had left behind, even more perfectly.
After all, he was already a Spirit Master with innate full twentieth rank spirit power, it was just that he didn't have spirit rings.
Today, after careful consideration, Tang San decided to hunt for his first spirit ring.
After asking for half a month's leave from the Academy, Tang San packed up some clothes, prepared enough rations, and headed straight for the Spirit Hunting Forest.
It took a week to reach the outskirts of the Soul Hunting Forest.
There was no natural scenery here, only all kinds of shops and soul masters coming and going.
Tang San could see the ten meter high fence surrounding the Spirit Hunting Forest, the top of which was a sharp spear, extremely sharp.
Finding a shop, Tang San bought some tools, and began to plan how to enter this Spirit Hunting Forest.
The forest's periphery was guarded by squads of soldiers, and to enter it one needed Spirit Hall's token, which required applying to Spirit Hall.
Of course, those without Spirit Hall tokens could also secretly climb over the fence.
However, if they were caught, the outcome would not be good.
Night fell quietly, and it was time for the soldiers on the outskirts of the forest to change shifts.
"Only thirty seconds."
Seeing this, Tang San grasped the opportunity, leaping up from a tree, over the fence, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track flashing under his feet, landing soundlessly, leaping into the depths of the forest.
"I'm finally in." "But Heaven Dou Empire spirit masters actually need Spirit Hall's permission to enter the Spirit Hunting Forest, it seems Spirit Hall's ambition has long since sprouted, even long since grown into a climate."
In Tang San's view, Spirit Hall not launching a campaign against the two great empires right now wasn't because they didn't have enough strength, it was because Spirit Hall had internal reasons.
After all, the relationship between the current Spirit Hall's hall master Bibi Dong and that Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue was rather complicated.
Tang San shook his head, throwing these messy thoughts to one side. After all these were still a bit far from him, and right now he hadn't even obtained the first spirit ring.
Walking for a while, Tang San saw several Lone Bamboo. According to the information in the Academy library, they should all be around fifty years old, unable to even move.
Tang San wasn't interested in their spirit rings, because he had already determined in these days what kind of spirit beast he needed for his first spirit ring, and what age it was.
For his first soul ring, he needed a hundred-year snake-type soul ring. It would be best if it was poisonous, and it had to be at least eight hundred years old!
The number of years a person's body could endure a spirit ring was greatly related to their physical qualities, and of course, also to their spirit power.
As for Tang San, his physical fitness had directly increased a lot after transmigrating, and moreover his spirit power had also directly been forcefully raised to rank twenty.
With these conditions, Tang San believed that he could withstand any spirit ring under a thousand year, and moreover the rejection of the Blue Silver Grass spirit with all spirit beasts 'spirit rings was relatively small.
As for Grandmaster's so-called first spirit ring's maximum age, it was a fairly common conclusion from his current investigations, because Grandmaster had never seen the situation of Douluo two, three, and four.
The bonfire lit up, and Tang San scattered his own realgar in a circle around the perimeter, sitting by the fire eating roasted wolf meat.
This wolf meat came from a type of spirit beast-hell wolf.
These hell wolves Tang San encountered were mostly only around one and a half meters long, a total of five, spirit beasts less than fifty years old.
Relying on Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and Mysterious Jade Hand, Tang San didn't even need to use his sleeve arrows to shatter their heads.
After eating the entire wolf's meat, Tang San took the fur of the other four hell wolves, rolling them up and carrying them on his back.
The fur was taken from hell wolves. Even though these hell wolves were only ten year old spirit beasts, they should be worth some money.
Tang San had already inquired in the Spirit Hunting Forest's periphery, ten year spirit beast fur, intact, one fifty copper spirit coins, equivalent to five silver spirit coins, he had five in his hands, equivalent to twenty five silver spirit coins.
If he were like a normal Nuoding Academy student, it would be enough for him to spend a semester.
In the dark night, Tang San closed his eyes to rest, but still maintained three points of vigilance. Even if this was only the Heaven Dou Empire's "zoo", if he was careless, he would still die in the Yellow Springs.
Thus, the vast majority of people formed groups to hunt spirit beasts, working together, but Tang San was now alone, so he had to be careful, basically not daring to sleep.
"Hiss-"
A snake's hiss sounded, even though it was weak, it still reached Tang San's ears.
Eyes abruptly opening, Tang San leapt up, flying to the top of the tree, a purple light flashing in his eyes, Purple Demon Eye opened.
Forty to fifty meters away, there was an eight-meter-long python crawling forward. In front of it was a three-meter-long single-horned deer under a tree.
The single-horned deer had a jade-white horn on its head, but there were many wounds on its body. It must have been chased away from the deer herd by other ferocious beasts, and now it was targeted by the python.
Tang San approached thirty meters or so, finally seeing the python's appearance clearly.
According to the information in the book, Tang San could confirm that this was a Poison Entangling Python.
This was a type of poisonous python. When a Spirit Master was bitten by it, the circulation of their spirit power would be hindered. Moreover, it would cause their muscles to shrink and they would lose their senses. In the end, their brains would hallucinate and die.
According to Tang San's medical knowledge from his previous life, this was most likely a kind of mental poison, able to destroy the nervous system in the human body.
Of course, as a python, its coiling ability was outstanding.
It suddenly jumped out and bit the neck of the single-horned deer. Its eight-meter-long body directly wrapped around the single-horned deer's body.
"Kacha."
This was the sound of bones breaking!
The death of the deer was inevitable. Only its intermittent panting showed its final struggle.
Tang San watched all of this, but didn't attack. The time hadn't come yet.
The Poisonous Entangling Python was 100 meters long, and this one was more than eight meters long. It was definitely more than 800 years old!
Because Tang San didn't acknowledge Grandmaster as his master, he didn't know that this Poisonous Entangling Python's cultivation was eight hundred years.
However, this didn't stop Tang San from using it as his first spirit ring.
Tenacity and poison, these two poisonous snakes possessed, even the datura snake could not compare to it!
As expected, after the poisonous python had killed the deer, it began to eat.
This was Tang San's chance!
Pythons would swallow their food whole, and they could not eat for months after a meal.
It was the same even if it was a soul beast. After all, the Single-Horned Deer that the Poisonous Entangling Python hunted was a hundred year old soul beast.
This was also a part of the natural food chain. Otherwise, if the Poisonous Entangling Python had to eat every day, then there would be no place for other spirit beasts to live in this Spirit Hunting Forest.
The Poisonous Entangling Python put the deer into its mouth bit by bit. Its entire neck had already expanded, and the outline of half a deer could be vaguely seen.
"It's time."
Tang San decided to act, directly throwing down the hell wolf fur on his back, leaping towards the poison coiling python, covering the distance of twenty meters in the blink of an eye.
The Poisonous Entangling Python also sensed a red silhouette suddenly coming to its side, but it was only halfway through its meal when the single-horned deer got stuck in its throat.
Twisting its tail, sweeping it, it brought up a cloud of dust, wanting to captivate Tang San's vision.
The poisonous python instinctively twisted its neck to spit out the single-horned deer, or else it would be inconvenient to move.
Unfortunately, Tang San wouldn't give him this chance!
