Second Martial Soul, Thunderclap Hellvine? First Meeting with Xu Jiujiu
The night passed quietly.
In a small courtyard with lush flowers and plants deep within the Royal Offering Hall, Jiang Yu quietly opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and capable of killing a Sky Azure Bull Python with a single punch.
Stimulated by the life force of the Immortal Medicine Immortal Douluo, the power of the Gold of Life hidden within him was fully activated, and the boundless life force once again cleansed his body.
Jiang Yu today exudes immense vitality, even in his blood; he's practically a walking embodiment of "hormones."
Most importantly, the influx of the primordial life force belonging to the Gold of Life broke through the barrier between the Medicine Immortal Douluo's level 95 and 96, allowing this national treasure-level figure, who only had a little over ten years left to live, to extend his lifespan by several decades after the breakthrough.
He not only profited from the deal but also gained a valuable favor from a healing-type Super Douluo. In Jiang Yu's view, this transaction was definitely not a loss.
Just as Jiang Yu about to get up and leave, a sudden movement in his Sea of Consciousness made him stop.
After closing his eyes and immersing his consciousness in the Sea of Consciousness, Jiang Yu was surprised to find a small patch of blue-purple vines growing on the shore of the boundless green ocean.
And their origin lies precisely in that Purple-Gold Light bead that fell into the emerald green ocean.
Has the Thunderclap Hellvine revived?
Jiang Yu squatted down in surprise, then reached out a hand to touch the blue-purple vine.
As his hand touched the Thunderclap Hellvine, the vine seemed to sense it, its tip slowly Entanglement around his arm, subtly revealing a sense of intimacy.
Just then, a muffled clap of thunder suddenly echoed in the previously clear sky.
The Medicine Immortal Douluo was awakened by the thunder that exploded right above his head. As soon as he stepped out of his room, he saw a bolt of lightning with a bluish-purple tinge descend from the sky and strike Jiang Yu directly on the head.
Medicine Immortal Douluo:???
After rubbing his eyes, the Medicine Immortal Douluo looked at Jiang Yu, whose body was charred black, and finally realized that his old eyes were not playing tricks on him.
"What bad things has this kid done that he gets struck by lightning even on a sunny day?"
After muttering something, the Medicine Immortal Douluo looked at the last black cloud in the sky, where the next bolt of lightning was about to strike. Just as he was about to make a move, he was surprised to find that the lightning power that had just dissipated into the courtyard had been actively absorbed by Jiang Yu.
Then, a flash of lightning appeared in his right palm, and a blue-purple vine emerged from it, quickly covering the ground within a three-meter radius around him.
The moment the next bolt of lightning struck, the vines lit up simultaneously. The lightning, containing violent energy, was directly decomposed and devoured before it even touched Jiang Yu, and the thundercloud in the sky also dissipated.
What... what's going on?
The Medicine Immortal Douluo stood there dumbfounded.
Even though she was in the Star Luo Empire, the Medicine Immortal Douluo had heard of Jiang Yu's reputation. She knew that Jiang Yu's Martial Soul was the Dragon Clan, but the vines that appeared in Jiang Yu's hand were clearly some kind of lightning-attribute plant.
Could it be... that Jiang Yu actually possesses Twin Martial Souls?
Meanwhile, Jiang Yu, who was awakened by being struck by lightning, was also completely bewildered.
I was almost struck by lightning and burned to a crisp for no reason, but who the hell shoved the Thunderclap Hellvine into my hand?
But you know what? Perhaps because they were now one, Jiang Yu felt an almost supernatural connection with the Thunderclap Hellvine. Moreover, he sensed that by using this method to control the Thunderclap Hellvine Thunderclap Hellvine Vine, he should be able to replicate its three major lightning-attribute divine skills.
Completely integrated with oneself, capable of being used for attacks and even unleashing Soul Skill, it is essentially no different from Martial Soul.
Although the Thunderclap Hellvine only has three fixed Soul Skill, it can evolve, and the way it evolves is very clear: it makes itself get struck by lightning.
After regaining his senses, Jiang Yu withdrew the Thunderous Thunderclap Hellvine, which was still lingering over the thunderclouds in the sky, and then noticed the shocked gaze of the Medicine Immortal Douluo.
After clearing his throat, Jiang Yu quickly stood up and explained:
"Senior, please don't misunderstand. That long vine was my Fifth Spirit Ring, but for some reason, it retained a portion of its original form and abilities."
The Medicine Immortal Douluo was very surprised; she had lived for over two hundred years and this was the first time she had ever seen such a situation.
After Soul Beast is killed and its Spirit Ring is absorbed by a human, it can still retain a portion of its original form and coexist with the human, even retaining some of its abilities?
This was absolutely incredible, but the Medicine Immortal Douluo had lived for over two hundred years and had seen many unbelievable things. Especially after considering Jiang Yu's age and cultivation level, he wasn't too shocked. He simply waved his hand and said:
"It's alright. I've seen my share of novelties, but this is the first time I've seen something like this."
"Let me remind you, your vines are quite extraordinary, and they seem to have a natural ability to attract heavenly lightning. You must use them with caution in the future, lest you accidentally injure yourself."
Jiang Yu nodded, then said:
"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will remember it."
The Medicine Immortal Douluo didn't say anything more, turning his gaze to the outside of the courtyard.
The sudden bolt from the blue attracted the attention of many powerful figures within the Offering Hall, but because this was her and the Offering Hall's Great Enshrined's residence, no one dared to approach casually. However...
The Medicine Immortal Douluo lowered his gaze and pondered for a moment, then suddenly said:
"Young man, I'd like to introduce you to someone. I wonder if you'd be interested?"
Jiang Yu taken aback upon hearing this, but quickly nodded in agreement.
The person who can be recommended by Super Douluo with extensive connections must also hold an extremely high position in the Star Luo Empire. As the saying goes, having more friends means having more paths to take. Putting everything else aside, getting to know them won't cause any problems.
The Medicine Immortal Douluo didn't say much, only telling Jiang Yu to wash up first, otherwise, with his tattered clothes, anyone who didn't know better would think a beggar had wandered into the Offering Hall.
When Jiang Yu returned after washing up, there was already a beautiful figure in the courtyard.
Jiang Yu only needed a fleeting glance to roughly determine the other party's identity.
At the same time, the blonde girl who was supporting the Medicine Immortal Douluo in the courtyard seemed to notice Jiang Yu's gaze. She raised her head and then gave Jiang Yu a perfect smile.
Jiang Yu in acknowledgment, feeling a slight sense of amazement, but not much, since the women surrounding him were usually top-tier beauties.
Beautiful women are practically available in bulk from him.
The Medicine Immortal Douluo smiled slightly, patted the girl's hand, and then went off alone with a watering can to tend to her precious flowers and plants.
Even when meeting a complete stranger for the first time, the girl showed no shyness or restraint whatsoever. Instead, she exuded a confident ease and an inexplicable sense of closeness.
After clearly seeing Jiang Yu's face, a hint of amazement flashed in the girl's azure eyes, which shimmered with a faint golden light. Then, she took the initiative to extend her hand and said:
"Nice to meet you. My name is Xu Jiujiu. It's a pleasure to meet you."
