Luo Zixuan smiled slightly and began to meditate to absorb the spirit ring.
One hour later.
Luo Zixuan was drenched in sweat, her alluring figure faintly visible. Her face was pale, and her expression looked extremely painful.
"Nothing will happen to Xiaoxuan, right!"
Li Jiutian said in a panic, about to approach Luo Zixuan.
"Boy, if you interrupt her now, do you want Xuan'er to suffer a cultivation deviation!"
"Trust her. All we can do now is wait."
Qian Daoliu stopped Li Jiutian with one hand and said calmly.
At this moment, in Luo Zixuan's subconscious.
A massive Golden Winged Bee was frantically piercing her body with its stinger.
"You ugly creature, bring... bring it on! I will definitely succeed in absorbing your spirit ring!"
Luo Zixuan lay on the ground, covered in blood, and said weakly.
The Golden Winged Bee was thoroughly enraged by these words. It bared its massive fangs and charged toward Luo Zixuan at lightning speed.
It wanted to snap Luo Zixuan's snow-white neck and end the battle in one strike!
Watching the Golden Winged Bee approach, there was no fear in Luo Zixuan's eyes; she only stared at it fixedly.
Just as the Golden Winged Bee was less than a meter away from her, a burst of green light sent it flying hundreds of meters back!
The Golden Winged Bee lay on the ground, looking at the human before it with unwillingness, before turning into powder and dissipating.
"Child, your kindness and unyielding spirit have moved me!"
A sudden, ethereal voice came from behind Luo Zixuan.
"You... who are you? Did you save me?"
Luo Zixuan turned around and said in shock.
Standing before her was a woman dressed in green, but before Luo Zixuan could see her face clearly, she turned into green light and vanished.
"Child, we will meet again in the future!"
At this moment, the woman's gentle, ethereal voice came from all directions once more.
"Who exactly are you!"
Luo Zixuan opened her eyes wide and shouted, then awoke from her subconscious.
"Xiaoxuan, what happened!"
Li Jiutian quickly ran to Luo Zixuan's side and helped her up.
"I saw a woman dressed in green. She saved me."
Luo Zixuan clutched her head and replied.
"A woman in green? Did you see her face clearly?"
Qian Daoliu asked with confusion.
"I didn't!"
Luo Zixuan replied somewhat weakly.
"Xiaoxuan, is your body alright? Your third spirit skill must be very powerful."
Li Jiutian said with some excitement.
"I'm fine. After absorbing this spirit ring, my spirit power has risen to level 35."
"The third spirit skill is called Recovery Needle, with an effective range of two kilometers."
"Those hit by it will recover 20% of their spirit power and then gain the ability to fly for 3 minutes."
Luo Zixuan introduced softly.
"As expected of my sister, this third spirit skill is too heaven-defying!"
Li Jiutian exclaimed, thinking to himself:
This Recovery Needle is simply heaven-defying. It's like a combination of Ning Rongrong and Oscar's third spirit skills.
This support skill has a long range and high efficiency. On a battlefield where things change in an instant, the 3 minutes of flight ability could be the key to deciding the outcome of the entire match!
Qian Daoliu also said with great gratification.
"By the way, System, do you have a function to detect spirit quality?"
"Can you help me detect the Jade Scepter?"
Li Jiutian suddenly remembered his cheat and asked in his heart.
[Jade Scepter, a top-tier support and control-type martial soul, its quality far exceeding that of the Nine Treasures Glazed Pagoda and the Blue Silver Emperor.]
"Holy crap!"
Li Jiutian looked at Luo Zixuan in disbelief.
"Brother, why do you keep staring at me?"
"I've finished obtaining my soul rings; it's time to help you hunt for soul beasts."
Luo Zixuan blinked her large eyes and said.
"Disciple, let's go. Once we finish hunting your soul beast, this master must return to the Elder Hall; there are matters that require attention."
After Qian Daoliu finished speaking, he spread his Angel Wings and flew high into the sky, searching the vicinity for soul beasts.
"Master, look! That soul beast should be just right for me!"
Li Jiutian pointed into the distance and shouted.
There, under a large tree three kilometers away, a griffin was snoring as it rested.
It was over ten meters long, with the head of an eagle and the body of a lion. It possessed a pair of eagle wings and was covered entirely in gold, appearing extremely sacred.
"That is a Heavenly Might Griffin with twenty thousand years of cultivation. I saw it long ago."
"Although it only has twenty thousand years of cultivation, its true strength is likely comparable to a sixty-thousand-year soul beast!"
"Little Tian, you cannot withstand the resentment of a twenty-thousand-year soul beast, let alone a Heavenly Might Griffin, which possesses sacred attributes!"
Qian Daoliu waved his hand, speaking helplessly.
"Master, the word 'impossible' does not exist in my dictionary!"
"I will definitely succeed in absorbing its soul ring. Please, help me!"
Li Jiutian spoke with a sincere attitude.
"Brother, absorbing a twenty-thousand-year soul beast for your third soul ring is just too risky!"
Luo Zixuan's eyes were filled with worry. She had nearly lost her life just absorbing a four-thousand-year Golden Winged Bee; the resentment of a twenty-thousand-year soul beast must be terrifying!
Qian Daoliu took a deep breath and then said, "Very well. Seeing that you are so determined, this master will give you a hand!"
"Thank you, Master!"
A smile tugged at the corners of Li Jiutian's mouth as he thought:
With two top-tier martial souls in my possession, it would be laughable if I couldn't even absorb a mere Heavenly Might Griffin.
It's fortunate that Qian Daoliu is here; otherwise, with my current strength, I would never be a match for this Heavenly Might Griffin.
"Angel Domain!"
"Seventh Soul Skill, Angel Avatar!"
Qian Daoliu let out a loud shout, and a burst of golden light covered a thousand square meters of the surrounding area at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Feeling the suppression of the domain, the Heavenly Might Griffin awoke from its slumber, its eyes glaring furiously at Qian Daoliu.
To release the Angel Avatar right from the start—this is the first time I've seen the old man take things so seriously!
Li Jiutian thought to himself.
At this moment, Qian Daoliu was enveloped in brilliant gold, eventually merging with the dozens-of-feet-tall Six-Winged Angel behind him. A tremendous pressure instantly filled the air!
"Cough, cough!"
Just then, Luo Zixuan suddenly clutched her chest, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
"Little Xuan, are you alright!"
Li Jiutian hurriedly supported her, his voice filled with concern.
"I'm fine, I just suddenly felt a terrible pain in my chest!"
Luo Zixuan's face turned pale, and she spoke with some weakness.
"Your soul power level is too low; you can't withstand this pressure!"
After saying this, Li Jiutian spread his Angel Wings and carried her a kilometer away.
"Brother, I'm sorry. I didn't help and only ended up causing you trouble."
Luo Zixuan leaned against a tree trunk, sounding somewhat self-reproachful.
"It's fine. Stay here for now; I'm going back to help Master!"
"If you encounter any danger, fire the signal flare I gave you into the sky!"
After speaking, Li Jiutian darted back toward Qian Daoliu's direction.
Seeing the dozens-of-feet-tall angel in the sky, the Heavenly Might Griffin let out an angry roar and charged toward it!
"A twenty-thousand-year soul beast dares to be insolent with me? If it were your leader, the Heavenly King Griffin, it might be qualified to cross blades with me!"
Qian Daoliu swung his Holy Sword gently, and the Six-Winged Angel performed the exact same motion.
"Bang!"
A massive surge of air pressure instantly erupted in the atmosphere. The Heavenly Might Griffin, still a kilometer away and just about to take flight, had its wings severed by the shockwave!
After slicing through the wings of the Heavenly Might Griffin, the shockwave traveled for another five kilometers and leveled three mountains before finally dissipating.
"As expected of Qian Daoliu. After releasing his martial soul, his power has increased by more than several times! What astonishing destructive force!"
"That Heavenly Might Griffin is like an ant before him!"
Li Jiutian sighed in his heart.
The Heavenly Might Griffin let out a painful roar, sensing that something was wrong, and quickly tried to flee into the distance!
However, before it could get very far, it was dragged back to its original spot by a powerful force!
Furthermore, the Heavenly Might Griffin clearly felt that within this area enveloped by golden light, its own soul power consumption was accelerating, and its speed had become slower than ever before.
"Where do you think you're going within my domain?"
Qian Daoliu let out a cold snort, then flicked his left hand gently. A blade of light over a hundred meters tall appeared in the air and surged toward the beast!
Though it looked like a casual strike, this blade of light contained no less than 500,000 jin of force!
The hundred-meter blade of light left the Heavenly Might Griffin with nowhere to hide. It let out a great roar, forming a white shield around its entire body!
"Boom!"
The moment the blade of light made contact with the shield, the shield shattered instantly. The Heavenly Might Griffin was then sent flying like a kite with a broken string, soaring dozens of kilometers away until it was embedded deep into a mountain!
"Master, I shall go and deliver the finishing blow!"
After Li Jiutian finished speaking, he prepared to move, but was stopped by Qian Daoliu.
"It will not die so easily."
Qian Daoliu said calmly.
