A Branch of the Life Ancient Tree
This is a sacrifice!
Tang San immediately understood. His pupils contracted sharply, and he closed his eyes, sat down cross-legged, placed his hands on his knees, palms facing up.
Blue-gold light continuously poured out from the tree, enveloping Tang San completely.
The light grew thicker and thicker, eventually forming a giant cocoon.
The cocoon is oval-shaped, about two meters tall, with blue-gold patterns flowing across its surface, beating rhythmically like a heart.
Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu, Shui Bing'er, and Ye Lingling stood at a distance, looking at the large blue-gold cocoon with shock and worry in their eyes.
They sensed the life force emanating from the large cocoon, so intense it was suffocating, so pure it was breathtaking.
The four women exchanged glances, but there was nothing they could do to help. All they could do was wait quietly.
Time seemed to drag on as we waited.
One day, two days, three days.
The patterns on the large cocoon became increasingly dense, and the pulsation became faster and faster.
They could sense that Tang San's aura was rising rapidly inside the cocoon.
On the third day, the blue-gold light from the large cocoon suddenly intensified, then slowly subsided.
Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the cocoon, like an eggshell about to break.
The cracks multiplied and grew larger, and blue-gold light shone through them.
"Snap!"
The large cocoon split open, transforming into countless blue-gold specks of light that danced in the air before slowly dissipating.
Tang San sat cross-legged in the spot where the big tree had been.
No, the big tree is gone.
The towering tree vanished, as if it had never existed.
That repulsive force also disappeared.
Tang San sat there, his eyes slightly closed, his breathing long and steady.
His entire demeanor became more sacred and noble, and his appearance underwent some subtle changes, becoming more handsome, with sharp features, piercing eyes, and an aura completely different from before.
That aura wasn't the oppression of Soul Power, but a kind of life-giving pressure, like a deity who controls life.
Seven Soul Rings rose from beneath his feet: one yellow, two purple, one black, and three red.
Three red Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring.
The four girls' eyes widened simultaneously.
Xiao Wu is Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form, and she understands better than anyone what Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring means.
On the entire continent, the number of Soul Masters with Hundred Thousand Year Soul Rings can be counted on one hand.
Tang San opened his eyes, a blue-gold light flashing within them.
"Third Brother!" Four girls ran over at the same time and surrounded him.
Tang San stood up and stretched his body.
He felt that his body had undergone a qualitative change, a transformation of the very essence of life.
Tang San smiled and said, "I'm fine. In fact, I gained a lot."
He summoned his Martial Soul, the Blue Silver Emperor. At this moment, the Blue Silver Emperor no longer resembled a blade of grass, but rather a lush and ancient tree.
Tang San paused for a moment upon seeing the change in his Martial Soul, and then began to explain.
"That big tree is a small branch left on the Douluo Continent by the original form of the Goddess of Life, the Life Ancient Tree. It took root and grew for over 100,000 years, but it doesn't have the intelligence of an ordinary Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
"The Life Ancient Tree itself is the epitome of vitality; even in this lifeless desert, it can create an oasis."
"It has waited here for at least 100,000 years, waiting for someone who can pass its test."
"That was a test of affinity with life. The purer the life attribute, the higher the affinity, and the closer one can get to it. I passed the test, gained its approval, and triggered its sacrifice."
Tang San's gaze fell on the traces left after the tree disappeared, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.
"It gave me a Seventh Soul Ring lasts for 100,000 years."
"Seventh Soul Skill: Blue Silver Emperor Undying Avatar"
Tang San was extremely excited.
"The Blue Silver Undying True Body is the Martial Soul Avatar of the Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul. After activation, all my attributes will increase by 300%."
"Most importantly, after activating my Martial Soul Avatar, I possess 'Undying Body.' Even if my body is destroyed, I can completely regenerate within ten seconds using only a drop of blood."
"Severed limbs, pierced hearts, decapitations—no physical injury can kill me. Severed limbs regrow instantly, pierced hearts heal immediately, and decapitations recover quickly."
Upon hearing this, the four girls' mouths gaped open, and they were speechless for a long time.
Undying Body.
This is not an exaggeration; it is true Undying Body.
This means that in battle, as long as Tang San activates his Martial Soul Avatar, he can ignore all physical attacks and trade his life for another, or his injuries for injuries.
Xiao Wu couldn't help but exclaim, "Third Brother! Does that mean you can't kill anyone now?"
Tang San smiled, neither denying nor confirming.
Undying Body is not invincible; it is only effective at the physical level.
Mental attacks, soul attacks, seals, and even divine power can all bypass his Undying Body and paralyze him.
But in the Soul Master World, there are few who can threaten him anymore.
"Also, I obtained a 100,000-year-old left Soul Bone," Tang San said.
"Left Leg Bone Skill One, Life Barrier. Deploys a barrier with a radius of one hundred meters centered on the user. Within the barrier, enemies suffer a 10% to 50% reduction in all attributes; the closer they are to the user, the greater the reduction."
"Left Leg Bone Skill Two, Seed of Life. Plants a 'Seed of Life' within yourself or an ally, lasting for ten days. If the target suffers fatal damage during this period, the Seed of Life immediately blooms, protecting them from death and restoring 50% of their health and Soul Power. Only one Seed of Life can exist at a time. Planting and triggering have no additional costs. However, the cooldown is one day, meaning it can only be planted once a day."
The four remained silent for a moment.
Dugu Yan took a deep breath, suppressing her shock. "Third Brother, what's your Soul Power level now?"
Tang San's lips curled into a smile, "Level 76. The Seventh Soul Ring, which is 100,000 years old, and the Soul Bone in my left leg allowed me to jump directly from level 70 to level 76."
"Furthermore, the immense life energy contained during the sacrifice to the Tree of Life allowed both of my natal Soul Rings to break through to the 100,000-year level. The Blue Silver Overlord Spear was upgraded to the Blue Silver Overlord Spear, at least doubling its attack power. The effect of the Blue Silver Guard also increased by 50%. The Blue Silver Domain has also evolved to its final form, All Rivers Converge into the Sea and possessing near-infinite endurance."
"The Thunder God's Heart has also evolved." Tang San's voice carried a hint of emotion. "After absorbing the sacrificial energy of the Tree of Life, its age jumped from 40,000 years to 100,000 years, evolving into a new External Soul Bone."
He paused, feeling the rhythmic beating of his chest, "I named it 'The Heart of Life'."
"The skill of the Heart of Life: Eternal Reincarnation."
"Upon activation, it also grants a super armor state, lasting ten seconds. The difference between this super armor state and the original skill is that it no longer limits the increase to lightning attribute attack, but instead increases all attribute attack power. In other words, during the super armor state, all attribute attacks are increased by 300%."
"At the same time, in the Invincible state, one can quickly absorb all surrounding energy, not limited to lightning element, but all elemental energy."
The four girls were at a loss for words.
Tang San's current combat endurance has reached an unbelievable level, it's ridiculously long!
Xiao Wu was the first to come to her senses. She grabbed Tang San's arm and asked with bright eyes, "Third Brother! Are you stronger than Titled Douluo now?"
Tang San's lips curled into a smile, "If it's Titled Douluo below level 95, I'm confident I can fight them."
