The next morning, the crisp chirping of birds came one after another in the forest, and the sun shone through the gaps in the leaves, casting golden spots on the tree trunks.
Yang Jian Open your eyes.
A night of deep sleep left him full of energy, and his body was filled with Soul Power. Level 43 Soul Power was slowly flowing through his meridians, and his whole body was filled with a sense of strength. He sat up from the tree trunk, moved his somewhat stiff shoulders, took out some dry food from his waist Soul Tool, took a few bites, and then stood up.
It's time to return.
It has been almost a month since it came out. The fourth Soul Ring was successfully obtained. Heavenly Eye also unexpectedly gained the ability of night vision and mental attack. The harvest of this trip far exceeded expectations.
If I don't go back, grandpa may be worried.
Yang Jian jumped down from the tree trunk, checked the direction, and walked towards the outside of Star Dou Great Forest.
The Star Forest in the early morning is much quieter than at night. Most of the nocturnal spirit beasts have returned to their nests to hibernate, while the day spirit beasts have just begun to move.
The forest is filled with the fragrance of vegetation, mixed with the smell of earth and dew, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Yang Jian walked leisurely through the forest. Heavenly Eye was in a half-open state, and he could sense the movement of thousands of meters in radius.
With his current strength, it would be difficult for Star Dou Great Forest Mixed Zone to encounter Soul Beast who could threaten him, but he did not relax his vigilance because of this.
After walking for about half an hour, Yang Jian suddenly stopped.
No.
The surrounding scene looked normal. The trees, shrubs, weeds, and moss were no different from the area he had just walked through.
But Yang Jian's intuition told him that something was not quite right.
The center of his eyebrows Heavenly Eye felt slightly hot, and his spiritual power spread quietly.
The next second, his pupils shrank slightly.
He sensed a layer of vague mental fluctuations, covering an area of several kilometers in radius.
The fluctuations in that layer were extremely subtle, like ripples on the water. If he hadn't been blessed by Heavenly Eye, he might not have been able to detect it even if he got close.
Mental Domain.
Yang Jian made a judgment immediately.
This is a field built by a certain mental system Soul Beast, and judging from the coverage and stability of this mental fluctuation, the age of this Soul Beast is at least 30,000 years old, and may even reach 40,000 years.
He did not step in rashly, but stopped, condensed Heavenly Eye's mental power into a thread, and carefully probed into the layer of Mental Domain.
Heavenly Eye's mental power is like an invisible swimming fish, quietly sneaking into the interior of that layer of mental fluctuations.
Yang Jian's mind began to picture the scene inside the domain.
It was a messy battlefield.
Seven figures were fighting each other in the open space. Their movements were fierce and crazy, and every move and every move was aimed at killing people.
Blood splattered, severed limbs flew everywhere, screams and roars intertwined, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
The Soul Ring Configurations on these people shocked Yang Jian. Although the quality of Soul Rings varied, they were all six Soul Rings. In other words, these people were all Soul Emperor level experts.
A team composed entirely of Soul Emperor is killing each other like a group of wild beasts that have lost their minds.
On the edge of the battlefield, near the roots of a giant tree, three women Soul Master were nestling together.
The beautiful woman at the head was wearing white clothes, with an intellectual and soft face, and a waterfall-like long blue hair draped smoothly behind her back.
Her face was slightly pale, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but her eyes remained firm, firmly protecting the two people behind her.
Behind her, a girl with a black gauze covering her face also has long blue hair. Although her face cannot be seen clearly, judging from her clear eyes and soft outline, she is obviously related to this beautiful woman in white.
The last woman, Soul Master, looks to be no more than 28 years old. Her long pink hair is like cherry blossoms in spring, and her eyes are as clear as water, showing how pitiful she is.
She was hiding behind the beautiful woman in white, her dreamy and beautiful face was a bit pale, and her whole person was unbelievably weak.
About fifty meters in front of the three women Soul Master, a plant as tall as one person was blooming.
The shape of that plant is somewhere between a crabapple and a peony, with tall stems, wide leaves, and several bowl-sized flowers blooming at the top.
The petals showed a dreamy pink-purple color, with a glistening light at the edges. Circles of spiritual fluctuations spread out from the flowers, completely covering the group of Soul Emperor who were killing each other.
Yang Jian recognized this Soul Beast.
Phantom Begonia.
This is an extremely rare spiritual system Plant-type Soul Beast that has no movement ability, but its Mental Domain has an extremely wide coverage area and can cover an area of hundreds of meters or even thousands of meters in radius.
All Soul Beast or Soul Master who step into this Mental Domain will be eroded by Phantom Begonia's mental power, fall into the dream it weaves, kill each other under its control, and eventually become its nourishment.
Only those whose mental power exceeds Phantom Begonia can detect its existence and resist its mental control.
The Phantom Begonia in front of us, judging from the intensity of its spreading mental fluctuations and the coverage of Mental Domain, is at least about 40,000 years old.
The 40,000-year-old spiritual system Soul Beast is equivalent to a strong human being at the Soul Emperor level.
But in terms of the quality and quantity of mental power, it is difficult for most humans Soul Emperor to compete with it.
The mental system Soul Beast has a natural advantage in this regard. At the same level, the human mental system Soul Master can often barely protect itself, let alone counterattack.
That Soul Emperor team obviously knows the way.
They probably stepped into Phantom Begonia's Mental Domain without realizing it, and then their consciousness was eroded one by one, and eventually they became puppets killing each other.
The reason why those three women Soul Master have not fallen yet is because the beautiful woman in white is using her mental power to build a barrier to resist the mental erosion of Phantom Begonia.
Yang Jian and Heavenly Eye could clearly see that a thin mental barrier shrouded the three of them, blocking out the mental fluctuations that spread from Phantom Begonia.
That barrier was like a translucent cover. Although it was only a thin layer, it was extremely tough. Phantom Begonia's mental waves hit it, causing ripples in circles, but it could never penetrate.
But Yang Jian can also see that the mental barrier is gradually getting thinner.
Although the beautiful woman in white has strong mental power, she has obviously reached the end of her strength.
Her face became paler and paler, the sweat on her forehead became thicker and thicker, and her breathing became rapid.
She is using her own mental strength to resist the continuous impact of Phantom Begonia. This consumption is huge and unsustainable.
Once her mental power is exhausted and the barrier is broken, the three of them will be immediately eroded by Phantom Begonia's mental power and become the same puppets as those Soul Emperor.
