Second Spirit Ring

The creature was moving in and out of the tree line like shadow until it felt an extremely strong life force.

As it inched closer it noticed a human with golden hair a gleaming gem like golden eyes holding a soft bone demon rabbit with a woman moving through the forest.

It needed that life force it began to pounce on the human but before it could the human turn his head and punched the creature in the face.

WU SUKONG POV

As I was walking out of the forest with Cicely and the rabbit I felt a creature staring at me.

We had about 30 minutes before we were out of the forest but before we kept walking I felt it pounce on me I just gave a heavy punch to its face it fell down lifeless with a purple ring floating from it I heard Cicely shouted

"Child you just punched a 1,060 year old Apple Dryad in the face and killed it!!"

Sukong-"I felt it thirst for the life force of my second spirit but I didn't expect it to attack me but I think that I have gotten a clue for my first spirit ring"

Cicely-"Child it's to old your body won't be able to hold out"

Sukong-"Trust me my body feels stronger after getting the ring for my first spirit I should be able to do it"

Cicely-"Are you sure you want this?"

Sukong-"Yes this is the one that I want"

I immediately sat in the lotus position and activated my Tree of Life as I did a strong amount of life force started permeated through my body as the ring attached itself to my tree.

The plant life around started growing at a an astonishing level to the naked eye.

6 hours later I opened my eyes to see Cicely with a worried expression on her eyes.

Sukong-"Grandma what's wrong?"

Cicely-"The moment you started absorbing the ring all plant life grew at an astounding pace even smaller spirit beats have come to meditate around you it just looked like you were calling out to them as this part of the forest has become an extremely quiet and peaceful place"

Sukong-"Really I was worried that it was too quiet but I got my spirit rings but before we discuss them let's go home."

It took us 4 days before we got home but the moment we did I took the little rabbit that I named 'Snowy' to bed before passing completely out.

As I got up the next morning and fishing out a carrot for Snowy we went downstairs for breakfast I noticed Cicely cooking breakfast and began asking me about my rings abilities to which I replied.

Sukong-"My first spirit the Duskgold Dreadclaw Bear its ring increases my strength by 15% and I start growing bear like fur around my body but now my Tree of Life it's first spirit ability creates well apples"

Cicely-"I can get the bear for increasing strength as it is a true monster that can fight creatures double its cultivation base to a stand still but the second creates apples?"

Sukong-"No grandma let me finish yes it creates apples but they replenish 30% of spirit power and it helps remove impurities in the body"

Cicely-"Child you got lucky on your second spirit but never display it in front of anyone ok? And what's your current spirit rank?"

Sukong-"When I absorbed the first ring it took me to level 12 but when I absorbed the second it took me to 16"

Cicely-"Child this is truly good for you but remember before you get your second spirit ring you must train your body because without a strong body you won't be able to handle higher amounts of spirit power"

Sukong-"I know grandma and Snowy here loves carrots"

Cicely proceeded to look at the rabbit drooling while eating a carrot

Cicely-"Child you start school in 3 days time you will be put into working class so you will be able to learn how to earn a living because you have started walking your own path in this world"

Sukong-"I know grandma I will begin to gather my things to prepare for school but before I leave I would like to spend some time visiting my mom"

I proceeded to walk into the backyard before katowing my head in front of my moms grave before telling her about my adventure in the forest before showing my new family Snowy saying I would spend my life taking care of it

I felt as if I was hugged by an invisible force before I seen an image of my mom smiling at me before I seen it disperse with a message ringing in my ears that I've not heard since reincarnating

"My child I've seen you grow in your new world with many new experiences in these past few years your mom wanted me to tell you one thing when you turned 6 'My son I'm sorry I couldn't be there to hold and comfort you but I will always be there watching over you I love you Wu Sukong I've gone to a better place now remember to never give up hope as long as there is a chance' that is what she has said before I took her soul to heaven to watch over you now my child take your new life and live it to its fullest"

The voice slowly disappeared but i had tears streaming down my face as I listened to my moms last words I sat in a seiza and katowed 9 times for taking care of her.

That night as I was laying in bed I sent Snowy into the mini world before going in my self I seen it drooling at the carrots in the field but before it could pounce on them all birds and rabbits blocked it's path before it could run over then it heard a voice full of killing intent

"Snowy these are not for you to eat with out my permission if you did and hurt the others you would have become my dinner"

Snowy instantly turned its head and noticed my smile before trembling and running over to me I started introducing everyone to each other "Guys this is Snowy my new pet and friend Snowy these are also your new friends they help take care of this place so if you hurt them you wouldn't get anymore carrots to eat"

I seen a look of horror flash across its face before crying as if saying sorry to the others.

I took Snowy out of the world along with myself before telling it that I would send it in from time to time to play around with its new friends.

3 days quickly passed by as I was getting ready for my new school life I heard Cicely cry out

"Child it is time for you to leave me and start school but remember I will always be there for you"

I hugged her saying I know before packing my clothes and throwing them over my shoulders along with Snowy before bolting out the door on my way to school.
