The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 364 The Mermaid's Blessing

Less than ten miles outside the Demon Forest became the site where the Evil Eye Tyrant, the ruler of the Demon Forest, perished.

His eyes flashed with hatred and resentment as he breathed his last.

Only when they saw a dark red spirit ring rise did Li Xun and Poseidon truly breathe a sigh of relief.

Despite their relaxed demeanor, the two had been engaged in fierce battles for nearly two days, constantly on guard against the Evil Emperor's strongest attack, keeping them on edge at all times.

Just by looking at the scene where even plants withered where that blue light passed, you can tell that anyone hit by it would definitely not have a good ending.

Fortunately, everything went as planned.

"Absorb it with peace of mind, I'll keep watch." Poseidon's aura spread outwards to deter any potential dangers.

"it is good."

Li Xun sat down cross-legged, and the Water Cold Sword appeared in his left hand. With a pull, the dark red soul ring floating on the Evil Emperor slowly wrapped around the slender sword.

A surge of violent energy followed.

Li Xun hadn't felt that destructive energy while absorbing a spirit ring in a long time.

Even if the sea princess sacrificed herself, it was because the energy was too enormous, not because she had a clear purpose of destroying his physical body.

"Tianmeng, please help me seal off a portion of this energy."

The soul ring, which is over 700,000 years old, has an enormous energy that Li Xun cannot absorb at present. Fortunately, he has the three soul beasts, Tianmeng, Bingdi, and Hai Gongzhu, to channel it.

Suddenly, a powerful spiritual force emerged from the soul ring: "You want to kill me? Then I'll take over your body!"

The Evil Emperor's soul, filled with deep resentment, surged into Li Xun's spiritual sea, accompanied by a domineering spiritual force.

He had already made two plans. If he couldn't kill the two humans in front of him by self-destructing, he would hide in his spirit ring. As long as the humans dared to absorb his spirit ring, he would take over their bodies.

As a spirit-type soul beast, coupled with the violent energy in his soul ring, the Evil Emperor was certain that he could easily possess even that ultimate powerhouse.

It's exactly as he budgeted.

Upon entering Li Xun's spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, the Evil Emperor was immediately drawn to the vast space, becoming increasingly satisfied with the calm and serene surface of the spiritual sea.

Li Xun's condition was even better than he had imagined. He possessed an incredibly powerful physique among humans, eight 100,000-year soul rings, and a sea of ​​consciousness that could perfectly contain him.

This was like a gift from heaven to him.

But at that moment, the Evil Emperor noticed that this place was different from others.

Looking at the three busy figures, he asked in surprise, "Sea Princess? Ice Emperor? You two became spirit rings, yet your souls are still intact."

"Evil Emperor!" Tianmeng and the other two soul beasts looked somewhat solemn.

Each time these soul beasts on the continent undergo tribulation, they will have a faint connection with each other. Naturally, he knew this about a 600,000-year-old powerhouse and one of the ten most ferocious beasts.

"Evil Emperor, if you choose to merge willingly, we will find a way to preserve your soul."

Seeing that he was being ignored, Tianmeng Bingcan had no choice but to accept it. After all, his strength was undeniable, and anyone could bully him.

"Preserve my soul? What a joke! You'd be begging me for that."

The Evil Emperor gave a cold laugh.

The once peaceful and sunny sea of ​​consciousness was suddenly filled with dark clouds, and then a huge eyeball appeared in the sky above the sea of ​​consciousness, like a dark red sun.

"It seems our negotiations have broken down," Tianmeng sneered.

Although the Evil Emperor is strong, he is still an attack-type mental soul beast, but his mental strength is also not weak. Moreover, he now has two partners to help him.

But Tianmeng soon realized she was wrong.

Although he is a 980,000-year-old soul beast, his strength is mainly for support and self-preservation, which is very different from soul beasts like the Evil Emperor who have powerful destructive skills.

Fortunately, he had Hyotei and the Sea Princess by his side, otherwise he might have been defeated as soon as they made contact.

A dark red energy swept through, polluting half of the originally clear spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, while the other half was protected by the three soul beasts, including Tianmeng.

Li Xun also noticed this situation. He originally thought that Tianmeng and the Princess of the Sea could withstand the evil emperor's invasion, but it seems that they were still not enough.

However, he is currently dealing with the impact of the spirit rings and cannot spare the energy to help.

Just as the two sides were at an impasse.

A sky-blue light suddenly emanated from Li Xun's body, and a beautiful mermaid phantom quietly appeared behind him.

"The Sea Princess's torso!" Poseidon looked at the beautiful figure and knew that something must have happened. She secretly worried for Li Xun.

The illusory image of the Sea Princess held her hands to her heart, and a golden-blue light enveloped Li Xun before disappearing.

And just after the mermaid princess's phantom disappeared.

A small, dark blue pupil detached from the Evil Emperor's eye and then slowly floated toward Li Xun.

"An eye-type external soul bone?" A look of surprise flashed in Poseidon's eyes.

Soul Masters can generally absorb six soul bones, including the bones of the limbs, head, and torso. However, if they are lucky enough, they may also obtain external soul bones in addition to the six soul bones.

However, these external spirit bones are basically in fixed locations. Either the tailbone is an external spirit bone on the torso like Li Xun's, and she has never heard of eye-type spirit bones before.

Then, the dark blue pupil floated in front of Li Xun's eyes, and without waiting for him to open his eyes, it slowly merged into his left eye.

Li Xun was examining his body internally at that moment when he noticed discomfort in his eyes and quickly shifted his attention to them.

At this moment, the originally violent power within him had stabilized considerably due to the addition of the soul bone.

However, the energy of the soul bone itself was also astonishing, which brought him a considerable burden.

However, Li Xun secretly felt relieved: "It seems that the lucky skill has been activated."

The Sea Princess clan is extremely unique.

They can manipulate seawater and also possess mental abilities, though their mental abilities are not as lethal as those of the Evil Emperor, they have their own unique characteristics.

When Li Xun absorbed the Sea Princess's soul ring and torso bone, he inherited a portion of this ability.

Unlike the two mental attack skills on the Soul Ring, the two skills on the Sea Princess's torso bone are a mental defense skill called Mermaid's Voice and a passive skill called Mermaid's Blessing.

Li Xun just triggered the passive ability "Mermaid's Blessing".

Mermaids have one chance to bestow a blessing in their lifetime, which they give to either their most important partner or their loved one, and the person blessed will be blessed with good fortune.

However, luck is an elusive thing; it also depends on whether one's fate is strong enough.

Even among the sea creatures who receive this blessing, many die or suffer accidents.

Otherwise, this race would have already ruled the entire ocean with 100,000 years of cultivation.

When the time is right, heaven and earth lend a hand.

Nothing unexpected happened next. Although Tianmeng and the other two soul beasts were at a disadvantage in their spiritual sea, they were still locked in a stalemate with the Evil Emperor.

The latest novel is first published here!

Meanwhile, Li Xun, under the influence of the Evil Emperor's external soul bone, rapidly absorbed the energy from the soul ring.

Time passed slowly, but the Evil Emperor continued to unleash his mental power to attack his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness.

"If we can't have it, we might as well destroy it. We can die together, and at least we'll have company!"

The Evil Emperor could feel himself weakening, losing his physical body and energy; at this moment, he was like a piece of duckweed.

If he cannot be successfully possessed in a short time, he will be powerless to resist.

The three soul beasts, including Tianmeng, had no time to pay attention to the Evil Emperor. They were focused on protecting the stability of their spiritual sea, as it concerned their lives and Li Xun's.

"Die together? I think you'd better go by yourself."

Just then, a clear voice rang out from above the Sea of ​​Spirit.

Suddenly, the once calm seawater surged with huge waves, crashing towards the Evil Emperor like a tsunami reaching the sky.

"What! How could you have absorbed all my power so quickly?!"

Upon hearing this voice, the Evil Emperor was startled. The fact that Li Xun had appeared here meant that the soul rings in the outside world had become stable.

"I've already said, even if another one like you came along, I could still handle it."

Li Xun stood above the Sea of ​​Spirit, his palm slowly descending, and the tsunami crashed down as if under control.

"You have no chance of killing me!" The Evil Emperor's eyes flashed with endless resentment.

The immense spiritual power created a curtain of water that crashed against the seawater.

boom-

Despite being a spiritual space without a physical form, the impact of the seawater produced a deafening sound.

The Evil Emperor was instantly submerged by the seawater.

Its almost transparent body tumbled in the water, and the spiritual energy wrapped around it lessened considerably.

Struggling to break free of the sea, before he could retaliate, another tsunami crashed towards him.

Although Li Xun is not a spiritual master, his spiritual power is still immense.

With the added enhancements from the head and torso bones, and further amplified by the external soul bone around his eyes, he was the master in his spiritual sea.

The seawater washed over Xie Xiedi's body again and again.

After countless blows, his entire body became extremely weak.

As the waves crashed in again, the Evil Emperor cried out in terror, "Don't be afraid to kill me! I'm willing to follow you!"

"It's too late. Keeping you around now might just make you a menace!"

Li Xun looked down from the void of his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, and with a gentle clench of his right hand, the seawater surged and washed over in an instant until there was no trace of the Evil Emperor left.

"Finally dead..." Tianmeng and the other two soul beasts breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Li Xun carefully inspected every corner before withdrawing from his mental sea of ​​consciousness.

At this moment, his body had completely absorbed the soul ring. Due to the Evil Emperor's enormous energy and the external soul bone, his level had reached ninety-seven.

After a Soul Master reaches level 90, the rate at which Soul Power increases is extremely slow.

After level 95, each level up becomes a watershed moment. He was able to jump two levels in one go, all thanks to the Evil Emperor's 700,000 years of cultivation.

He slowly got up.

After getting acquainted with the surge in physical strength and feeling the enhancement brought by the fifth soul ring to his second martial soul, Li Xun was deeply shaken.

His second martial soul finally experienced a qualitative leap after absorbing the Evil Emperor.

"Is it over?" Poseidon asked with concern.

The Evil Emperor's 700,000 years of cultivation was something she herself couldn't possibly absorb completely. As a top-tier expert, she knew the risks involved.

"It's alright now." Li Xun smiled and extended his hand. "Come on, let's take care of some things first, and then return to the Sunflame Empire."

"it is good."

Poseidon didn't ask what it was about, but naturally took the outstretched hand in his.

With a flash of light, the two vanished from their spot.
