The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 240 Reshaping the Second Martial Soul, Ice Soul Silver Needle?

Li Xun's smile was full of confidence.

While the intelligent soul ring researched by Tianmeng Ice Silkworm is not as domineering as Soul Sacrifice, it is still quite formidable.

Besides Xiao Wu, where else could he find a soul beast that would be willing to abandon everything for him?

Seeing the Sword Douluo's puzzled expression, Tianmeng chuckled. He immediately explained his and Li Xun's research: "How about it? Aren't you amazed by my wisdom?"

Sword Douluo wasn't particularly shocked, but his worry remained: "What will happen if we fail?"

"If we fail, we'll both die together. But his life is also a life. Do you think it will drag me down with it?" Li Xunchong raised an eyebrow.

Tianmeng was somewhat puzzled by this. If their method failed, at most Li Xun would explode and die during the soul power transfer, and she would still have some energy left. How could something happen?

After a moment of contemplation, it saw Sword Douluo beside it, and its expression froze.

He then looked at Li Xun with utter shock: "Brother trusts you so much, yet you're so wary of me?"

"Brother Tianmeng, why would I be wary of you? Since I asked you to research this method, I've already prepared for death. But if it succeeds, I'll help you become a god; if it fails, what's wrong with us dying together? After all, my life is worth it too, isn't it?"

Seven spirit rings—one yellow, two purple, two black, and two red—lit up beneath Li Xun's feet. He pointed to the two blood-red spirit rings and said, "Besides, I'm actually the one facing the greatest risk, okay? Even without you, I have a very good chance of becoming a god on my own."

Tianmeng's expression had been somewhat hurt, but when it saw the two blood-red soul rings, all of that vanished instantly.

Its eyes widened, and it muttered, "Your sixth and seventh spirit rings are already worth 100,000 spirit rings? If you still can't become a god, then it's just too unfair."

"How about it? Do you still feel like you've been taken advantage of?" Li Xun said with a smile.

"..." Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was stumped by the question. Given Li Xun's current situation, losing her wouldn't be a big deal: "May I ask why you're taking such a big risk?"

"I just hope to go further. After all, gods are also divided into levels: third-level gods, second-level gods, first-level gods, and god-kings. And even god-kings are actually divided into strong and weak."

Tianmeng was taken aback; this was a blind spot in his and the soul beasts' knowledge. Because no soul beast had ever become a god. Although the common goal of the soul beast community was to become a god, their inherited memories were completely blank regarding the specific benefits and position they would gain after achieving godhood.

After a long while, Tianmeng regained her composure and looked intently at Li Xun: "Now that we have your help, brother, our goal is the God King."

"But I have a request. Aren't those soul beasts evolving by absorbing my soul power? How about we turn them all into soul rings and soul bones? Let them become nourishment for us to become god-kings! Hmph!"

"We are all in this together, whether we prosper or suffer together." Li Xun nodded with a smile.

Sword Douluo watched as the man and the beast reached an agreement, his expression complex. He realized that after living for so many years, he knew less than Li Xun and a worm.

Seeing that Li Xun had agreed, Tian Meng's small eyes darted around: "Actually, not only can I improve your strength, but I can also give you a new martial soul. Aren't you tempted?"

"Is this the kind of thing you're talking about?" Li Xun stretched out his left hand, and his second martial soul appeared in his palm.

"Oh no, I forgot you have a second martial soul!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaimed, her eyes bulging.

Li Xun said with a playful expression, "I already have my second martial soul. I don't think the probability of creating a third martial soul is high. Let's just proceed as normal."

He naturally knew that the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm could use the Ice Emperor Scorpion to transform its host into a second martial soul, but he didn't say that he already had one, nor had he ever thought of creating a third martial soul.

The Three Lives Martial Soul is indeed uniquely advantageous, but its versatility is limited. This is mainly due to the restriction that only one Martial Soul can be used at a time.

If Li Xun's second spirit is entirely composed of 100,000-year-old spirits, then the existence of his third spirit is essentially a waste. More importantly, 100,000-year-old spirit beasts might temporarily disappear from the continent as a result.

Seeing that this sycophant was still unwilling to give up, Li Xun could only try to persuade him with kind words. Tianmeng, realizing that her attempts to seduce him had failed, also revealed the truth.

Left with no other choice, Li Xun had to promise to work with it to find a way to preserve the Ice Emperor Scorpion's soul intact.

After resolving Tianmeng's request, both the human and the beast became serious, as this concerned their survival and future endeavors.

Suddenly, the plump body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm shone brightly, and nine golden patterns transformed into a golden halo that enveloped both the person and the beast.

Vast streams of spiritual energy rippled outwards like waves, stretching for hundreds of miles.

A ring of crystalline white light suddenly condensed on Li Xun's second martial soul, then transformed into a smooth halo, its color growing increasingly darker.

The colors changed from white, yellow, purple, black, until they reached red, at which point the color change stopped.

"Li Xun, my energy is too vast, and the spirit ring you're currently attached to is your second spirit. With your current physical condition, you can only withstand about 130,000 years of energy at most. I will store the remaining energy and turn it into seven seals. Once your physical condition reaches the level required for this power, the seals will be gradually broken, and the energy will eventually be integrated into the spirit ring to unleash the true power of a 980,000-year spirit ring."

"And there's another point: I can't provide you with a soul bone, but I can provide you with four soul skills."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

The body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm gradually became illusory, and its size shrank accordingly. Suddenly, two of the nine golden halos turned into golden dust and disappeared into the soul ring of Li Xun's second martial soul.

Then the remaining seven golden halos simultaneously entered Li Xun's forehead and surged into his spiritual sea.

"Huh!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm suddenly said in surprise, "Li Xun, I suddenly realized that your second martial soul actually has a lot of room for evolution. It's a waste not to use the extra energy, so I'll reshape it for you first."

As the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm continuously poured the energy that was about to overflow the world into Li Xun's second martial soul, the form of the kunai also changed.

The originally pitch-black kunai gradually softened, its color becoming increasingly translucent, and a chilling aura gradually spread outwards. Finally, it transformed into a half-foot-long ice needle.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt it wasn't aesthetically pleasing enough, so it carved some patterns on it. After finishing, it nodded in satisfaction: "Let's leave it like this for now. I think there's still room for evolution, but it would be too wasteful to use the energy of the seal. I suggest that when adding a soul ring to the second martial soul in the future, we can use the excess energy to modify it."

After doing all this, the body of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm gradually disappeared, leaving only a sliver of light that disappeared into the top of Li Xun's head.

Within the sea of ​​consciousness.

Li Xun assessed his current state and nodded, naturally delighted: "Tianmeng, what skill did you bestow upon me?"

Tianmeng quickly floated to Li Xun's side, raised her head proudly and said, "I am different from ordinary 100,000-year-old soul beasts. Although I cannot provide you with soul bones, I can provide you with four auxiliary soul skills."

"Although you are not a spirit-type soul master, your spiritual power is exceptionally large. I have made some simple adjustments to adapt your soul skills to suit you as much as possible."
