Sun Tree, Thousand-Year Soul Ring

"An Eye Martial Soul?"

"That's quite rare. This is the first time I've ever heard of such a Martial Soul."

After Qian Renxue heard Yang Yuan reveal his Martial Soul, she immediately looked toward his eyes.

When her gaze met Yang Yuan's Double Pupils, those deep, abyss-like eyes inexplicably made her heart tremble.

Yet the feeling vanished in an instant, making Qian Renxue think it had merely been an illusion.

"What strange eyes!" Qian Renxue narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly and thought to herself.

Although she had never heard of Yang Yuan's Eye Martial Soul, her intuition told her that this Martial Soul might not be weaker than her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.

One had to know that the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul was a God-Tier Martial Soul!

At that thought, the delight in Qian Renxue's gaze toward Yang Yuan deepened.

She had truly found a treasure on this trip!

"By the way, little brother Yang Yuan, have you decided that your First Soul Ring will come from a soul beast with either the life or destruction attribute?"

"You should know that those are two completely opposing attributes!"

"I've decided. A soul beast with either attribute will do."

"The life attribute is easier to deal with."

"But soul beasts with a pure destruction attribute are not easy to find in the Star Dou Great Forest!"

Qian Renxue frowned slightly, while curiosity also rose within her toward the abilities of Yang Yuan's Double Pupils.

After all, no matter how she looked at it, an Eye Martial Soul seemed unrelated to either of those attributes.

She had originally thought Yang Yuan might choose a soul beast with the spirit attribute instead.

But Yang Yuan had his own considerations.

At present, he had only mastered the most basic abilities of the Double Pupils.

Yet in the original Perfect World.

The Double Pupil's left eye could give rise to the vitality of all things and evolve the origin of yin and yang;

while the right eye contained the power of destruction, capable of returning all things in the world to chaos.

However, Yang Yuan still had no clue how to awaken these two completely opposing powers of life and death.

That was why he had come up with the idea of absorbing soul beasts with life and destruction attributes, hoping to awaken these two abilities.

Seeing Yang Yuan persist, Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo said nothing further. They simply led Yang Yuan into the Star Dou Great Forest to search.

With a Titled Douluo like Snake Lance Douluo guarding them.

As long as they did not venture deep into the core region of the Star Dou Great Forest, they had no need to worry too much.

Star Dou Great Forest—even its outer region appeared especially spectacular.

The mountains and forests were dense, ancient trees towered overhead, and it resembled a primeval jungle.

Yang Yuan was not greedy and had not insisted on absorbing some exceptionally powerful soul beast.

As long as it possessed the life or destruction attribute, he was not picky.

Of course, the conditions did not really allow for that either.

Otherwise, the Jade Swan, the Tree of Life, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, or the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear could all have become Yang Yuan's targets.

However, those soul beasts were either incredibly rare or had powerful backers. None were something Yang Yuan could set his sights on.

As the sky gradually darkened, the three of them had already raced hundreds of li through the Star Dou Great Forest.

The books Yang Yuan had read at Nuoding Academy over the past few days had not been for nothing. He led Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo through several sunlit areas thick with vegetation.

The knowledge he displayed and his understanding of soul beasts amazed even Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo.

No wonder the average cultural level on Douluo Continent was so low.

If Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong had read a few more books back then, they would not have been attracted to that half-baked "Master," Yu Xiaogang.

Finally, after reaching the fourth sunlit area, a trace of delight appeared on Yang Yuan's face.

Within his Double Pupils, he could clearly see that the life attribute in this place was denser than in the other areas. There was a good chance that the life-attribute soul beast he sought was here.

Now, he only hoped that this life-attribute soul beast was not too old.

Noticing the change in Yang Yuan's expression, Qian Renxue could not help but look over curiously.

"Little brother Yang, have you found the soul beast you need?"

"I can more or less confirm that the soul beast I need is in this area. I'm just not sure of its age."

Upon hearing that, Qian Renxue looked around.

Yet aside from the especially lush ancient trees towering into the sky, she found no trace of a soul beast.

After withdrawing her gaze, Qian Renxue sighed. "Little brother Yang, your Martial Soul is really convenient."

Clearly, she knew that Yang Yuan's keen perception came from his Double Pupils.

Snake Lance Douluo, standing beside her, nodded deeply in agreement.

Yang Yuan's senses were far too sharp. He had detected the soul beast's presence even before a Titled Douluo like him had.

The three ventured deeper for another stretch.

A tree roughly seven or eight meters tall appeared in their sight. Among the surrounding trees, it could only be considered short.

The moment Yang Yuan saw it, a smile appeared on his face.

"So it's a Sun Tree."

"No wonder this area not only has a dense life attribute, but also contains a faint light attribute."

"A Sun Tree?" Qian Renxue looked at the seven- or eight-meter-tall tree in the distance, its somewhat broad leaves gleaming with gold and green hues. Her expression held a hint of curiosity.

Clearly, she had never heard of this kind of soul beast.

Yang Yuan explained, "The Sun Tree possesses both the life and light attributes. It is a relatively rare Plant System Soul Beast."

"This kind of soul beast generally grows in areas that receive sunlight year-round, but its trunk grows slowly. Among clusters of ancient trees, it does not stand out and is easily overlooked."

Qian Renxue showed a look of realization, though her beautiful face appeared somewhat embarrassed.

She had actually been taught by a six-year-old child.

How embarrassing!

"Little brother Yang, how do you know so much?"

Even Snake Lance Douluo beside her was curious.

Yang Yuan was only six years old. Even if he had begun studying from the womb, he should not have been able to achieve this, right?

Yang Yuan grinned after hearing that.

"If you could read ten lines at a glance and remember everything you saw, you could know as much as I do."

The corner of Snake Lance Douluo's mouth twitched slightly.

He could not compare to these freakish geniuses.

Qian Renxue could not help but sigh as well.

"Little brother Yang, heaven truly favors you!"

Yang Yuan inwardly scoffed. My cheats were all given by the system. You're the one truly favored by heaven, aren't you?

A God-Tier Martial Soul, the Young Master of Spirit Hall, a Limit Douluo grandfather, and Innate Level 20 Soul Power.

With that setup, if she had put even a little more thought into cultivation and been a little less lovestruck, what chance would Tang San have had?

At the same time, Snake Lance Douluo made his move.

With a single strike, he snapped every branch of the Sun Tree. All that remained was for Yang Yuan to finish it off and destroy its core roots so that its Soul Ring would emerge.

"Thank you, Senior She!"

Yang Yuan thanked Snake Lance Douluo.

Snake Lance Douluo's surname was She, so Yang Yuan directly addressed him as Senior She.

After saying that, Yang Yuan walked up to the Sun Tree.

After its branches had been broken, the Sun Tree had already lost its ability to resist. Yang Yuan easily destroyed its core roots with a single sword strike.

A moment later, the Sun Tree seemed to lose its luster and instantly dimmed somewhat.

A Purple Soul Ring slowly rose from its corpse.

Upon seeing this Purple Soul Ring, Qian Renxue and Snake Lance Douluo's pupils suddenly contracted.

"It's actually a Thousand-Year Soul Ring!"
