"Seventy thousand years..."
Jiang Mo and Qian Jun were already numb. They had finally managed to wait until the unicorn's sacrifice was complete and could finally move again, only for another seventy-thousand-year Soul Beast to come flying down from the sky!
A seventy-thousand-year Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle!
It gave them no time to react. The moment it arrived, it dove straight at Qian Renxue, then fervently sacrificed all its cultivation to her!
Qian Renxue felt her Soul Power boil within her once more. Looking at the Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle offering itself before her, her little head buzzed.
Another sacrifice!
Heavenly Dao... Lord Heavenly Dao was simply too kind!
Right from the start, he had sent two ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts to sacrifice themselves!
One fifty thousand years old, and one seventy thousand years old!
Such lavish gifts had left her completely dizzy!
Wonderful, absolutely wonderful!
Lord Heavenly Dao was such a good person!
The greatest good person in the world!
She had actually doubted Lord Heavenly Dao before. She had truly judged a gentleman's heart with the mind of a petty person!
From now on, she would be Lord Heavenly Dao's most loyal little angel!
Qian Renxue happily enjoyed the sacrifice of the seventy-thousand-year Soul Beast before her, her heart filled with delight!
When the seventy-thousand-year Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle had finished sacrificing itself, Qian Renxue's Soul Power leaped from level twenty all the way to level twenty-nine!
Level twenty-nine in a single day!
Whose entire lifetime was that?
Gangzi's entire lifetime!
"Phew!"
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo let out breaths of stale air. Finally! They were finally free!
Heaven knew how helpless it felt for two rank ninety-five Titled Douluo to have their entire bodies restrained!
Ever since becoming Titled Douluo, neither of them had ever been controlled for such a long time!
"Uncle Qian Jun, Uncle Jiang Mo! Look, these are my two soul rings!"
Qian Renxue happily showed her soul rings to them.
Two black ten-thousand-year soul rings. One was lighter in color, with only a faint red trace around its edge that would go unnoticed without careful observation. It belonged to the unicorn.
The other was pitch-black, crisscrossed with red markings. Unlike the nearly invisible red trace on the unicorn's ring, these red markings occupied a considerable portion of this seventy-thousand-year soul ring!
Once the soul rings were displayed, anyone with functioning eyes could see them!
When Qian Jun and Jiang Mo saw Qian Renxue's two unusual soul rings, their gazes simultaneously fell upon the glaring red, their voices filled with astonishment. "Red! The soul rings of two ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts actually have red on them!"
"If I remember correctly, those two Soul Beasts were a fifty-thousand-year Holy Light Unicorn and a seventy-thousand-year Blazing Light Golden Flame Eagle, right?"
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo could not understand it. The two Soul Beasts had been at most seventy thousand years old, not even ninety thousand years old. What right did their soul rings have to contain red?
According to Spirit Hall's records, red appearing on a ten-thousand-year soul ring meant that the Soul Beast that produced it had cultivated for at least ninety-nine thousand years!
Only such powerful beings on the verge of becoming Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts had a slight chance of nurturing that trace of red, representing that they had reached the limit of ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts!
Red on soul rings from fifty-thousand-year and seventy-thousand-year Soul Beasts was simply unheard of!
But when they remembered that these two soul rings had been obtained through sacrifices, Qian Jun and Jiang Mo quickly accepted it again.
After all, how could two ten-thousand-year soul rings with some red on them compare to ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts sacrificing themselves?
This was far too outrageous!
Ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts sacrificing themselves, and two in a row!
Since records began on Douluo Continent, such a thing had never happened!
You insignificant ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts, what fucking right did you have to sacrifice yourselves?
Sacrifice was the privilege of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts!
"Xue'er, tell Uncle Qian Jun, when you awakened your martial soul, did anything else happen? Did any strange phenomena appear?" Qian Jun asked impatiently.
But he quickly realized that his question was stupid. Qian Daoliu had never intended to hide Qian Renxue's martial soul awakening from anyone.
She had awakened her martial soul in the presence of numerous elders and worshippers!
Wouldn't he know whether anything else had happened?
"Uncle Qian Jun, if I remember correctly, Uncle Jiang Mo and you were both watching when I awakened my martial soul!"
Having obtained two sacrificial soul rings, Qian Renxue was in exceptionally high spirits. Even her words to Qian Jun carried a hint of teasing.
"Uh..." Qian Jun awkwardly scratched his head.
"Move aside, I'll ask! You can't even ask a question properly!"
Jiang Mo Douluo shot Qian Jun an irritated glance, then turned toward Qian Renxue with a face full of smiles. "Little Xue'er, tell Uncle Jiang Mo. Were these two Soul Beasts that sacrificed themselves prepared for you by Lord Angel God?"
"Lord Angel God?" Qian Renxue's eyes held some confusion. Hadn't Lord Angel God already died? Weren't the two Soul Beasts gifts from Lord Heavenly Dao?
"No?"
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo were both exceedingly shrewd!
Just from Qian Renxue's tone and subtle expression, they could tell that she was genuinely confused. She had not encountered Angel God as they had imagined.
Could it really not have been Lord Angel God's doing?
But if Lord Angel God had not sent these two Soul Beasts, who else could it have been?
Who else could make two ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts willingly complete sacrifices?
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo had both undergone the Angel God Trials, and they understood Angel God's divine power!
That was a being capable of easily raising the age of others' soul rings and granting soul rings to others!
If Angel God had caused the ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts to sacrifice themselves, the two of them would have found it very easy to understand and accept!
But if it was not...
"Buzz!"
An invisible ripple spread outward. Qian Jun, Jiang Mo, and Qian Renxue looked up to see a Soul Beast rushing rapidly toward them!
"Again..."
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo watched the ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast rapidly approach them...
"?"
"?"
"?"
The moment the three of them saw that Soul Beast, they were dumbfounded!
What was that?
A plant-type Soul Beast?
A lotus as tall as a person, with golden roots and crimson-gold lotus leaves, walked toward the three of them on its roots, limping along.
After arriving before them, the crimson-gold lotus lowered its flower head and confirmed Qian Renxue's identity before immediately beginning its sacrifice!
However, it first forcibly raised Qian Renxue's Soul Power from level twenty-nine to level thirty before it began condensing a soul ring.
Its roots were gold, and its leaves were crimson, carrying the powers of earth and Grand Radiance respectively!
This was the ninety-thousand-year plant-type Soul Beast, the Grand Radiant Golden Lotus!
Qian Jun and Jiang Mo exchanged glances. "There's actually such a rare plant-type Soul Beast in the Star Great Forest?"
Even Spirit Hall had few records of Soul Beasts that fed on the power of earth and Grand Radiance.
According to the records left by their predecessors, the highest cultivation ever discovered for this rare and powerful Soul Beast had only been thirty thousand years!
Who would have thought that a ninety-thousand-year one was hidden within the Star Great Forest?
"Gulp!"
Hidden in the shadows, the Sky Azure Bull Python, the Titan Giant Ape, and Xiao Wu, who sat on the Titan Giant Ape's shoulder, all swallowed hard as they watched the Grand Radiant Golden Lotus suddenly appear and then suddenly sacrifice itself.
"B-Big Brother, can a ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast sacrifice itself too?"
Er Ming, who usually stuttered, was no longer stuttering. He even doubted his own eyes!
A ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast was sacrificing itself to a human little girl at the level of a Soul Grandmaster.
If someone had told him such a thing before, he would definitely have slapped them away!
But now...
"Probably not..." Da Ming said uncertainly.
According to the memories in their bloodlines, anything below one hundred thousand years absolutely could not sacrifice itself! Nor could it possibly complete a sacrifice!
As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, even if you wanted to sacrifice yourself, you did not have the qualifications!
But if the memories in their bloodlines were true, then what exactly was happening before them?
A ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast sacrificing itself was fucking terrifying!
"Er Ming, is the Grand Radiant Golden Lotus really ninety thousand years old? Could it have reached one hundred thousand years long ago?" Xiao Wu asked hesitantly.
"No!" Er Ming said decisively. "I fought it just last year. It had only just advanced to ninety thousand years back then. How could it directly reach one hundred thousand years after only one year?"
"Besides, it's sacrificing itself right now, and its aura is completely exposed. It's a genuine ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast!"
"A ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast sacrifice..."
One rabbit and two beasts faced this earth-shattering scene in silence for a time.
They were not humans. Humans might still attribute such a thing to miracles or gods!
But they would not. The memories in their bloodlines clearly told them that anything below one hundred thousand years absolutely lacked the qualifications to sacrifice itself!
This involved the laws between heaven and earth!
Yet now, a Soul Beast had broken that law!
"Da Ming, could the two sacrifices we sensed before coming here have been..."
Da Ming, Er Ming, and Xiao Wu looked at the recipient of the sacrifice—Qian Renxue.
No way, right?
Could those two previous sacrifices also have been from Soul Beasts below one hundred thousand years? And could the recipient of all of them have been the same person?
What did she possibly deserve to warrant that?
Remembering those two weak sacrificial auras, the hearts of the rabbit and two beasts jolted.
This was probably not a beast problem!
This was a human problem!
They looked at Qian Renxue and felt as though the girl was shrouded in a mysterious veil!
"Da Ming, should we leave?"
"..."
Da Ming was somewhat speechless. "A sacrifice restrains everything around it. Did you forget? Try moving now and see if you can."
"..." Er Ming fell silent.
The sacrifice of a mere ninety-thousand-year Soul Beast could actually restrain two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts like them?
Damn it!
What a complete reversal of the natural order!
