Demon Eye Magic Tree Advances, The Path to Godhood Lies Beneath Your Feet!

"It's not that I don't trust you, Brother Sky Dream!"

Lin Fan replied with a smile, "Could it be that Brother Sky Dream doesn't trust his own judgment?"

"That is true."

Although the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm felt something was off, the moment he heard Lin Fan praising him, he felt like he was floating on air. He sighed with emotion, "Exactly! I am such a genius; anyone I set my sights on must naturally be a genius too! It is only normal that you could achieve something like this!"

"Hehe, don't you worry, kid. Your Brother Sky Dream is a Million-Year Soul Beast, and now that I've taken a liking to you, I am willing to become your soul ring!"

"As long as you listen to me, I will definitely help you obtain even more powerful soul rings, and even martial souls, to help you become a god!"

"..."

Hearing these words, Lin Fan couldn't help but shake his head with a small smile.

This guy was still as full of hot air as ever.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't had such a massive plot armor, and if Tang San hadn't been helping him while trying to train him like a dog just to keep him alive, he probably would have died countless times over.

However, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm possessed a million years of soul power, and with all his experiences and memories, he was still very useful to Lin Fan.

At the very least, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm could enhance his mental power, allowing him to control more soul beasts simultaneously and increase the upper limit of the soul beasts' strength!

That was a tangible increase in combat power!

With the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm using his mental power to shroud Lin Fan and the others, and the aura of the Titan Giant Ape being completely sealed away by the Super Poké Ball (the Master Ball), the Sky Azure Bull Python couldn't detect them at all.

Even if the Sky Azure Bull Python were to fly into a rage and search frantically throughout the Star Dou Forest, he would have to search every corner carefully, making his speed far inferior to that of Lin Fan and his group.

In no time at all, Lin Fan's party had left the Star Dou Forest, not even stopping in the nearby towns, and sped away.

No one knew if the Sky Azure Bull Python might charge out of the Star Dou Forest in a fit of rage!

Only after they were completely clear of the Star Dou Forest did Dugu Bo finally let out a sigh of relief.

After all, he had truly felt the oppressive pressure emanating from the Sky Azure Bull Python.

Only Qian Ying looked helpless: "It's a pity, I forgot to get a soul ring for Chen while I was guarding Yan'er."

"No need to worry about that."

Lin Fan curled his lips and said, "I can handle Cousin Chen's soul ring; I've already captured plenty of thousand-year soul beasts anyway."

"Ah? Thousand-year?"

Qian Ying asked doubtfully, "Isn't the absorption limit for a first soul ring supposed to be around four hundred years? Can she handle a thousand-year one?"

"With my brother here, wouldn't it be fine if we just let Cousin Chen consume some Whale Rubber?"

Lin Fan didn't care at all. He believed that with the strength he had displayed, Dugu Bo would be more than willing to help with this favor.

"No, that Whale Rubber was a gift for you; how could we use it on Chen?"

Qian Ying shook her head repeatedly. It would be incredibly embarrassing to take back a gift that had already been given. If she went home, she would surely be scolded by her parents.

"Pfft, what does that matter?"

If Lin Fan had cared about the Whale Rubber before—since it could strengthen the physique—this trip to the Star Dou Forest had not only granted him a million-year soul ring, but he had even captured a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast! And the king of them all, at that!

With such a massive upgrade, Lin Fan didn't care about anything else.

Besides, Lin Fan was a man who valued loyalty and affection; now that he had made it, he naturally had to look after his family.

"This..."

Seeing that Qian Ying was still about to refuse, Lin Qingfeng spoke up: "Fan'er has filial piety and is close to his relatives; this is a good thing. You don't need to worry."

"Alright then."

Qian Ying nodded, her face filled with gratitude.

Beside them, Dugu Bo was also filled with inner emotion.

With such high talent, heaven-defying luck, and a heart that valued loyalty and affection—if he could marry his granddaughter to him, she would have no worries for the rest of her life.

Gu Chen had awakened the Twin Martial Souls of the Taiyin Bright Moon and the Solar Scorching Sun. To push for the limit, one usually hunted soul rings for only one martial soul at a time.

"Cousin Chen, which martial soul do you want to absorb a soul ring for first?"

"I want to absorb them for both!"

Gu Chen said with a calm expression, "The sun and moon are complementary by nature. Perhaps they can only unleash greater power when they are at the same level of strength."

"Are you sure?"

Lin Fan raised an eyebrow, not expecting his cousin to have such courage.

"Naturally."

"Good!"

Seeing that Gu Chen had made her decision, Lin Fan said no more. With a flicker of his thoughts, he immersed himself in the system to search for suitable soul beasts for Gu Chen.

Fortunately, he had captured many thousand-year soul beasts before, and he had collected quite a few more just as they entered the forest this time.

Very quickly, Lin Fan selected two soul beasts and converted them into soul rings.

Opening his eyes, Lin Fan waved his right hand, and two soul rings floated one after another in front of Gu Chen.

In an instant, Lin Qingfeng, Qian Ying, Gu Chen, and even Dugu Bo and the nearby Ye Lingling all looked toward Lin Fan with curiosity.

They were all very curious to see what kind of Spirit Soul Lin Fan would choose.

"A 1,200-year Lava Dog and a 1,100-year Cold Phoenix Butterfly!"

"Both are quite suitable for you; go ahead and absorb them. With my brother here, there won't be any danger."

"Many thanks, Cousin Lin Fan."

Gu Chen took a deep look at Lin Fan, then, without any hesitation, stretched out her hands. Her Taiyin Bright Moon and Solar Scorching Sun spirits appeared one after another, and she began to absorb the two spirit rings respectively.

Seeing this, the others also stepped out of the carriage one by one.

Feeling that Dugu Yan and Gu Chen were both absorbing their spirit rings, a thought suddenly occurred to Lin Fan.

Although the Evolution Light only provided one chance for advancement for both spirits and spirit rings, spirit rings were numerous, and they were different from spirits!

In other words, Lin Fan could also make the Demon Eye Magic Tree spirit ring advance!

He just didn't know if it could increase the age of the spirit ring.

Even though Gu Chen was his cousin, Lin Fan still hoped that these limits would appear on himself.

"Um..."

Just as Lin Fan was deep in thought, Ye Lingling suddenly leaned in and whispered, "You've captured many Spirit Beasts; are there any suitable for the Nine Heart Begonia?"

"Don't worry, I will pay a fair price!"

Hearing that even Ye Lingling had come to buy spirit rings, Lin Fan couldn't help but smile. After all, her spirit was one of a kind; selling her a spirit ring would not only make money but also strengthen their relationship—it was a win-win.

"Just come to me when you need one."

Lin Fan laughed, "Considering you are Yan'er's classmate, I can give you a fifty percent discount!"

"Really?"

Hearing this, Ye Lingling couldn't help but show a look of joy.

Little did she know, the fifty percent discount Lin Fan offered was a fifty percent discount applied after first inflating the price!

Are you kidding? Regardless of your status, as long as you aren't my family or my future wife, it is impossible—absolutely impossible—for you to take advantage of me!

After making the agreement with Ye Lingling, while Dugu Yan and Gu Chen were still absorbing their spirit rings, Lin Fan activated the Evolution Light and cast it upon his own Demon Eye Magic Tree.

Baby, give me a surprise!

[Ding!]

[Congratulations to the host for successfully advancing the spirit ring: Demon Eye Magic Tree. The amplification ability provided to the host has been improved, and the spirit skill Plant Domain has been additionally comprehended! The spirit ring age has risen to 1,800 years. Furthermore, because the spirit ring is parasitic on the Poké Ball spirit and has not completely perished, it can increase in spirit power age along with the advancement of the Poké Ball, until it reaches one million years and becomes a god!]

"Holy crap?!"

"What is this? The Poké Ball's spirit ring can increase in spirit power as it advances, reaching up to a million years?"

"Then... what about the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm?!"

In an instant, Lin Fan's heart began to race; it seemed the path to godhood was right beneath his feet!
