With a flash of his figure, Dugu Bo stepped on the Void Realm and lightly landed beside Tang Chuan, clapping his hands as if he had just done something trivial... Meanwhile, on the other side of the Sunset Forest.
In stark contrast to Tang Chuan's composure, relying on the poison array to fish calmly, the atmosphere here was extremely tense.
Tang San was sitting cross-legged in front of the corpse of the ten-thousand-year Exploding Fire Ape.
The deep black spirit ring had been drawn above his head, and vast energy was frantically surging into his body, attempting to fuse with his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.
However, as the first spirit ring of the Clear Sky Hammer.
The terrifying energy brought by Tang San's choice to directly absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, bypassing his level, had far exceeded the limit his current Physique could withstand!
At this moment, his face was flushed red as if bleeding.
Veins bulged on his forehead and neck, writhing and pulsating like coiling Dragons.
Large beads of sweat continuously seeped from under his skin, already soaking all of Tang San's clothes, making him look as if he had just been pulled out of water.
Furthermore, his body was now uncontrollably trembling violently, his muscles spasming, as if he could explode at any moment from this wild energy.
"Ugh... Ah..."
The next second, a painful groan escaped Tang San's tightly clenched teeth.
His Soul Power fluctuations were extremely chaotic, at times violently overflowing, impacting the surrounding ground and leaving cracks.
At other times, they would suddenly retract, as if to crush his own flesh and bones.
The phantom of the Clear Sky Hammer suspended in his palm was also violently trembling at this moment.
At the same time, the dark red fire attribute energy on the Clear Sky Hammer was also uncontrollably running wild. Clearly, Tang San had overestimated his own Physique.
At this moment, not only was his body on the verge of collapse, but even his Sea of Martial Soul seemed to be scorched by flames. His consciousness began to blur, and there was already a faint tendency for his body to explode and die!
Master had no idea what the real problem with Cultivating twin spirits was.
It wasn't that attaching the first two spirit rings wouldn't cause the body to explode. Every Soul Master's situation is different. The previous Soul Master with twin spirits didn't explode with the first two spirit rings.
That was because his body could still absorb the energy brought by the spirit rings, while Tang San's current body had already reached the critical value for spirit ring absorption.
First, how many spirit rings a person can absorb depends on the limit their body can withstand. In the process of a Soul Master Cultivating their Martial Soul, they are constantly breaking their own limits.
When an ordinary Soul Master's Soul Power is around level ten, the limit their body can withstand is a spirit ring of about four hundred years.
When Soul Power reaches level twenty, the limit is a spirit ring of about seven hundred years.
At the same time, every time a spirit ring is absorbed, the Physique will improve once.
The process of a Soul Master absorbing spirit rings and increasing strength is inherently a virtuous cycle: absorb spirit rings, improve Physique, break shackles, and Cultivate upwards.
Within their own limits, every spirit ring a Soul Master absorbs can improve their Physique, and the next time they absorb a spirit ring, they will gain a new limit.
If the absorbed spirit ring is closer to the limit of one's own Cultivation, then the Soul Master will enter a virtuous cycle. If one blindly covets higher-year spirit rings, and the body cannot withstand the huge energy impact, then the result is direct death by explosion.
A single Martial Soul can often maintain a good standard and continuously Cultivate upwards.
But twin spirits are different. If a Soul Master Cultivates two Martial Souls simultaneously, then a phenomenon like this will occur: others' bodies originally only need to bear the energy load brought by one spirit ring, while he needs to bear the energy load brought by two spirit rings.
Tang San is currently only a Spirit Ancestor. Since he has already Cultivated the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, and his fourth spirit ring is a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, his body has already reached the critical value for spirit ring energy absorption. If he were to forcefully absorb another ten-thousand-year spirit ring as the first spirit ring of the Clear Sky Hammer, Tang San's body would simply not be able to withstand it.
To absorb it smoothly, he would at least need to withstand the full spirit ring energy of a Spirit Saint.
But the problem is that Tang San is currently only a Spirit Ancestor. How could he possess the Physique of a Spirit Saint? Even if he has a Soul Bone and his Physique has been greatly improved, it is absolutely not enough to support his Clear Sky Hammer directly absorbing a ten-thousand-year spirit ring.
In the original work, both Tang San and Bibi Dong completed the virtuous cycle of their first Martial Soul, Cultivating it to its peak, before Cultivating their second Martial Soul.
At the same time, they eventually possessed all six Soul Bones to strengthen their Physique.
In such circumstances, their Physique was very strong, so Cultivating a second Martial Soul was certainly not a problem.
But the current Tang San has only just Cultivated his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul to around level forty before rashly beginning to attach spirit rings to his Clear Sky Hammer.
His body simply cannot withstand such a vast amount of energy.
Therefore, this is destined to be a road of no return.
