22 Third Ring

The first sunlight's rays entered the room, falling over Haotian's face, making his black hair brightly shine. Haotian's eyes frowned just before they started to slowly open, welcoming a brand new day.

"Waaaw!" Haotian yawned as he lifted his upper body, stretching his muscles. He found himself full of energy, finally having released that lust and horniness that was becoming unbearable. Moreover, he found himself stronger than ever in body and spirit.

"Where did Xiangxiang go?" He looked around finding himself alone, Chenxiang in no place to be seen. Instinctively, he felt that Chenxiang wasn't there, moreover, somehow he knew where she was.

"It seems that there had also been some changes in my spirit" He closed his eyes and extended his arm. Over the darkness, he could just feel 3 threads, one gray, one blue and a white that quickly related with Meijing, Biyun and Chenxiang. Each one was a sign of their bond with him and over them, he could feel them, sensing their whereabouts and even their health state.

"Great, with this I will be able to protect the girls better" With this new talent, he would instantly know if his girls were in danger and quickly charge to find them.

Haotian stood up from the bed and quickly dressed up, picking his clothes from all over the room, and left the house. Finding himself outside, he looked upwards towards the sky "Here she comes".

"Bammm!" Just as answering Haotian something crashed in front of him over the ground, lifting a cloud of dust over it.

"Perfect Landing!" Like carried by those words, the wind blew over, blasting away all the dust and revealing a 10 meters diameter crater, with a beautiful girl smiling brightly. She was tall, only a little shorter than Haotian himself and had an incredible body with perfect curves, with long and toned legs, a thin waist, and a big pair of DD breasts. She had luscious long blond hair that seemed like gold cascading to her waist with an incredibly seductive face with charming brown eyes.

"You are full of energy, Xiangxiang" Haotian smiled looking towards her. The girl was in truth Chenxiang whose body had experienced a transformation last night due to Haotian's spirit's influence.

All her body had grown, becoming almost a head taller and vastly increasing her chest size. If before she had a thin and slim body, she now had become an incredible gorgeous goddess having a killer body. One thing was for sure, she would not be able to hide her gender anymore.

"Tian!" Chenxiang turned towards Haotian, the smile over her face growing bigger. She jumped over Haotian, wrapping her arms around him and pressing her new tits over his chest as she gave him a profound kiss.

Breaking the kiss, Chenxiang brimmed with joy "I broke through! I finally broke through!" She leaned her face over his shoulder "After so much time, after so much work, pain, after uncountables hours of training. I finally had broken through" She said as tears started falling from her eyes.

She had spent all her life fighting for this, searching for a way to become stronger, breaking over level 38, breaking over the tabu and showing the power of her clan over the world. The power to fly freely over the sky. Having accomplished her long dream, she couldn't help to cry from joy, a wave of warmth washing away her insecurities and fears.

"Congratulations, Xiangxiang. You deserve it" Haotian tightly hugged her, letting her dry her tears.

"Tian" After calming herself a little, she cleaned her tears and looked a Haotian with an interrogatory gaze "Did you have something to do with this?" Chenxiang accused him. She had been working for a long time with the problem of her spirit and finally breaking through just after having sex with Haotian made clear that there was some relation with it, more when taking into account Haotian's strange spirit.

"Maybe..." Haotian scratched his cheek, Chexiang's gaze turning even more accusatory "Let's talk inside, I will explain it all."

They entered the house, sitting over a comfortable sofa in the living room. Haotian started to explain more profoundly about his spirit. He had already explained that he needed girls to breakthrough, using their spirits to create his own spirit rings, however, he hadn't told about the effect on the girls. He explained this to Chenxiang, explaining the refinement capability of his spirit, being able to boost the power and even evolve the spirit of the bonded girls.

"Why didn't you tell me this before?!" Chenxiang shouted shocked. If she had known about this before, a lot of her doubts would have flown away, accepting Haotian before and no longer worried about being able to follow him in the future.

"I truly loved you and didn't want to force your choice. I wanted to be reciprocated by you for your own feeling towards me, not for the chance to become stronger" Haotian seriously said "Sorry, to hide it from you."

Chenxiang shook her head "There's no need of apologize" She said smiling, completely touched by Haotian's act. He could have forced her long before, not mattering her feelings at all, but he respected her, trusting her with his all.

"Now, to another matter. How does it feel to break throught rank 40?" Haotian asked with a grin.

"I wanted to keep it as a surprise" Chenxiang sighed, spirit power surged around her followed by her three spirit rings, 2 yellow and 1 purple, showing the strength of a rank 40 spirit power. Not only she had broken through rank 38, she had gone further stopping at rank 40 due to the need of a spirit ring, it was even possible that she would be able to break through more ranks after obtaining her new ring. "How did you know?"

"From this" Haotian grinned, three spirit rings appeared under him, 2 purple and 1 yellow, the spirit power around him showing strength not inferior to Chenxiang.

Thanks to his spirit and Chenxiang's cultivation, he had directly broken through over rank 30, reaching rank 40, if he wanted he could already try to take another girl and become a Spirit Ancestor. However, he was against this. A new spirit ring was another spirit and he needed time to learn how to control it, stabilizing his foundation avoiding problems later on due to his growth speed. He had already decided that he would spend his time mastering his new strength and spirit before trying to take another one, plenty knowing that there was time before his starved state flashed again.

"So not only are able to copy other spirits, you can copy even their cultivation" Chenxiang puffed her cheeks "For you to simply copy me after so much work" She sighed. Then, she smiled with expectations "And what do you think about your new spirit ring, incredible, no?"

"I don't really have tried it yet, so I don't know exactly what had become" Haotian's third ring started shining.

"Wait!" Just as he was about to activate his new spirit ring, Chenxiang quickly stopped him "Let me show it to you first."

"I'll give you the honor" Haotian teased her as he withdrew his spirit rings.

That gained a glance from Chenxiang that quickly ignore it and invoked her spirit.

"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" A powerful shriek sounded, shaking all the house by its pressure. Over Chenxiang an avian spirit appeared. It was a big and powerful bird, with sharp and strong claws and beck, similar to an eagle. However, there was no way to mistake that bird as an eagle. Far larger, far stronger, with a majestic and overpowered aura around it, with a golden plumage and a snake tongue.

"This is a-" Haotian said shocked, his mouth opening widely.

"This is my-" Chenxiang shook her head "This is our spirit, the sky overlord, the Golden Roc!" Chenxiang said smiling.

The Golden Roc was considered an extinct spirit beast. It was considered one of the strongest beasts even capable of going against the Dragon Kings using its superior speed and flight ability being able to control wind and space, it was considered to be unmatched over the sky. Even if it found itself unmatched by numbers, it was always able to escape away.

Due to its arrogance, it indiscriminately hunted every beast around, making a lot of enemies. In the end, it was considered an enemy from all the spirit beasts and was trapped by the Dragon Clan, forcing them to the ground and lowering their numbers one by one that there weren't many due to their individuality, always traveling alone. It was truly a mythical beast! A beast that even gods were afraid of.

Haotian clenched his hand, his rings appearing under him, his third ring shining brightly. "3rd skill: Golden Roc" A pair of powerful golden wings appeared over his back that flapped creating a strong wind burst.

Haotian felt incredibly strong. Meijing's spirit was a tool and Biyun's spirit was focused over the flames and control so this was the first beast spirit that increased his physical strength and it was an immense level, especially his strength and speed. Moreover, he gained control over wind.

"Incredible" Haotian smiled. Without a doubt, he had gained a new top spirit, acquiring a strong speed and power and boosting his cultivation a full realm, showing that choosing Chenxiang as his 3rd spirit ring couldn't have been more correct and that wasn't without counting how lovable and beautiful she was.

"It's all thanks to you. Truly thank you, Tian!" Chenxiang smiled leaning over Haotian and hugging him.

After some time, sharing the warmth between each other comforting in the joyful moment, Chenxiang separated from Haotian and turned serious "Tian, I'll need to leave the academy."

Haotian looked confused "Why? Now that you have broken through, there won't be any problem for you staying at the Emperor Team, you will even become a permanent member rather than a reserve."

"I might have some problem due to hiding my identity, but I'm not leaving for this" Chenxiang explained "I started traveling outside of my clan to become stronger and break through the tabu, entering Heaven Dou Academy to train as it's considered the best academy of the empire and I was surprised about Yu Tianheng's power when he recruited me. Not like I am worried now, I'm sure that I am able to win against him once I obtain my 4th ring." She puffed her chest.

"Then, why?"

"It's simply due to the importance of my spirit transformation." Chenxiang said "I'll need to return to the Speed Clan and inform my grandpa about this. It would cause an great change in the clan, we will no longer be called birds without claws and maybe in the future more people can follow my steps and awaken the Roc spirit even without your help"

Chenxiang seeing Haotian's worried face after listening that she left, caused her to worry, quickly shaking her head, trying to reasure him "Don't worry, it's not like I will leave for a long time." She tried to calm him down "I will stay some time with my family and then return with you. I already say that I love you and I want to be always with you, becoming stronger together."

Haotian nodded at her. It was understandable, Chenxiang had accomplished her clan long wish, so it was normal for her to return and inform them. They will surely be happy for her "Okay, but don't take too long" Haotian said before giving her a kiss.

"One more thing, Xiangxiang" Haotian said breaking the kiss "Now that you are able to absorb a 4th spirit ring, you should be able to absorb a spirit ring under 12.000 years. Your spirit and body had become far stronger than before so it wouldn't pose any problem trying to absorb one."

She was a little shock, but nodded nevertheless. Going over the ideal age recommendation was considered almost a suicide, but she knew that Haotian's word were true and she was stronger than most and won't be much of a problem. Meijing and Biyun being examples of surpassing the recommended age.

After that, Chenxiang prepared to leave, preparing a bag with the indispensable. Once it was prepared, both left the house and Chenxiang prepared to leave.

"Tian, I already had prepared some letters for the academy, please give them to the academy" She said giving Haotian some letters firmed by Yu Feng "And say my goodbye to Lingling and the group" She scratched her head "I don't really know how to explain it all and I don't really want to pass that awkward time."

Haotian sighed but nevertheless took the letters "Bye, Xiangxiang. I will miss you."

"I will return before you even could say Perfect Landing!" She said with a smile, jumping towards Haotian and giving him one last kiss, both tongues interlacing each other.

Breaking the kiss, Chenxiang seductively licked her licks "Bye!" Wide wings appeared over her back and with a wisp of wing, she disappeared with a great speed towards the horizon.

"Bye" Haotian said smiling. Not being able to see her anymore, he turned around towards the main building "Now to lie everything to the academy" Haotian scratched his head "What a bummer." He complained as he started walking over.
