Chapter 186: Faint with flesh

The blood flames grew stronger and stronger, gradually changing from red to dark red.

The body of the 100,000-year-old Tree of Life also slowly began to fade and become transparent, like a crystal clear red crystal, faintly beginning to condense into one place.

Soon the red light expanded into a huge circle, and the leafy tree in front of him completely withered and withered.

This is the essence of the 100,000-year-old tree of life, which is the 100,000-year-old soul ring!

The soul ring floated in and began to merge into Ye Lingling's body.

The huge soul power was fed back from the Life Spirit Tang and surged through Ye Lingling's body. It also began to increase rapidly in geometric multiples, and the aura became more and more powerful.

Level seventy, level seventy-one, level seventy-two...all the way to level seventy-five!

The red light spreads like a tide, filling the void with ripples.

Suddenly, a piece of green trunk bone floated out of the withered tree of life without control and flew to Ye Lingling on its own.

Under the gaze of Lin Chuan and Dugu Yan, this torso bone glowed like an emerald.

As it integrated into Ye Lingling's body, a shadow of the Tree of Life also loomed behind the girl, until it finally disappeared completely.

The red light gradually faded, but the special energy field left by the sacrifice still remained.

It wasn't until another half an hour passed that the energy completely dissipated.

Ye Lingling's eyelashes, bathed in the red blood flames, blinked slightly, and then a green light floated out of her body, dispelling and replacing the blood flames.

The girl slowly opened her eyes, her body exuding a crystal luster.

This made her already outstanding appearance even more beautiful, like a goddess descending from the sky.

"Brother Chuan, my soul power has reached level seventy-seven!"

Ye Lingling's beautiful eyes were shining with light, and a look of joy appeared on her face.

"Not bad!"

The 100,000-year-old soul ring and the 100,000-year-old soul bone abruptly raised her soul power to seven levels, leaving her with only three levels of soul power left before she could complete the test.

This speed exceeded Lin Chuan's expectations.

But no matter how you look at it, this is obviously a good thing.

"Lingling, you are so enviable. Can you tell me about the soul skills you have obtained?"

Dugu Yan stepped forward and took Ye Lingling's hand, his eyes full of curiosity.

Ye Lingling didn't hide anything, "The seventh soul skill: True Body of Life, Life Lingtang will release the light of life. When the light shines, it will apply life energy to the targets I designate, which will not only halve the consumption of their soul skills." , and the recovery ability will be greatly improved.”

"Basically, as long as I don't die, they will be immortal and can keep fighting."

This completely maximizes the survivability!

"What about consumption?" Lin Chuan asked again.

Ye Lingling shook his head slightly, "There is no time limit for the use of my martial spirit avatar, and the consumption is indeed quite large. However, after using it, my own consumption will be halved, and the light of life can be used in conjunction with my own healing soul skills."

"It's normal, otherwise it would be too foul."

While Dugu Yan comforted him softly, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart.

Lin Chuan looked as usual and said again, "What about the soul bones?"

"There are two soul bone skills. The first is a domain-like soul skill called "Prosperity Domain". After using it, I can control the nearby plants within a radius of twenty miles. When I am attacked, the plants can also share the damage for me."

"The second soul bone skill is open to all rivers. It can convert the vitality of all nearby plants into soul power, and the mental power can be absorbed and restored by itself. It can also be used to assist in cultivation."

Both Lin Chuan and Dugu Yan listened very seriously.

After the words fell, Lin Chuan's expression was completely uncontrollable.

"Isn't this the legendary... perpetual motion machine?!"

Controlling the plants to share the damage can also absorb the vitality provided by the plants into soul power and spiritual power, thereby using it to restore one's own state.

Coupled with the effect of the martial soul's true body...

Good guy, just thinking about it makes me dizzy.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just when facing a battle, as long as Ye Lingling is on our side, everyone does not need to worry about life and death, they can just go ahead and do it boldly.

And it is not easy for the enemy to get rid of Ye Lingling first.

Not counting the protection of others, just with the martial soul avatar and the two soul bone skills, it would be extremely difficult to kill her in a short period of time.

"Lingling, you have really become a strategic weapon now!"

Lin Chuan couldn't help but joked with a smile.

Ye Lingling didn't mind, but nodded seriously, "That's great. With such power, I can also help Brother Chuan!"

Hearing this, Lin Chuan's eyes couldn't help but soften.

He stretched out his hand to pull the girl into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her little red lips gently.

Soft and sweet, it is truly a wonderful experience.

Ye Lingling's cheeks instantly turned red with embarrassment, but the light in her beautiful eyes became brighter and brighter.

The atmosphere between the two gradually became ambiguous, which made Dugu Yan on the side suddenly jealous, pouting so hard that he could almost hang a kettle.

"Xiaochuan, you are partial, I want it too!"

After saying that, he squeezed into Lin Chuan's arms, raised his head and slightly opened his red lips.

Seeing the girl's stubborn eyes and jealous behavior, Lin Chuan felt extremely interesting, but he didn't favor one over the other, leaning down with a smile on his face.

Soft and easy to touch.

"Is that okay now?"

"Hehe..." Dugu Yan smiled happily.

Lin Chuan couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and his hands holding the two women tightened.

"Since Lingling has absorbed the soul ring, we should continue on our way!"

They have been here for half a day, and it is time to continue to the Earth Temple.

"Wait, take this with you!"

Lin Chuan suddenly thought of something, and quickly stepped forward to dig out the withered and dead 100,000-year-old tree of life from the soil.

However, just after leaving the soil, the fragile trunk turned into powder.

"This..." Lin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned.

However, at the original growth position, a green seed was lying quietly in the soil.

"Sure enough!"

Lin Chuan smiled slightly, picked up the tree seed and handed it to Ye Lingling.

"This is the seed of the 100,000-year-old tree of life. Lingling, keep it well, and plant it in the future when you go to the God Realm, and then use it as a medium to revive it."

Hearing this, Ye Lingling solemnly took the tree seed and nodded vigorously.

Since such a great benefit has been obtained, the promises made before naturally cannot be broken.

Ten days later, the three finally arrived at the Earth Temple.

Lin Chuan and Ye Lingling did not follow in, but watched Dugu Yan disappear in the stone forest.

"Lingling, it's time for us to return to Xueyuan City!"

The wind and thunder wings appeared instantly, Lin Chuan stretched out his hand to hold Ye Lingling's slender waist, and the two instantly took off into the air, turning into phantoms and heading towards the direction of the Tiandou Empire.

The wings behind him vibrated, and the roar of thunder and hurricanes could be heard from time to time.

With the help of the wind and thunder wings, the soul power consumed was completely bearable for Lin Chuan, even if he flew from the north of the Tiandou Empire to the southernmost tip of the Xingluo Empire.

When the two arrived at Xueyuan City, the sky gradually darkened.

Falling directly from the sky with the power of wind and thunder, such a loud momentum naturally alarmed other people in the manor.

"Who is it?!"

Two figures suddenly rose into the air, one on the left and one on the right, surrounding Lin Chuan and Ye Lingling.

However, after seeing who was coming, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and slowly landed on the ground.

"Hey, Lin boy, can you not be so scary every time you come back?" Dugu Bo couldn't help complaining.

He is so old, he can't stand such a shock.

"Sorry, sorry, I will pay attention next time." Lin Chuan hurriedly made a promise.

Shui Lanxin waved to the people who gathered and told them to do what they should do, and then turned to look at Lin Chuan.

"You little guy, you really know how to cause trouble for me!"

"Go back to the room first!"

The four of them quickly returned to the backyard.

"Thank you, Dean!" Lin Chuan took the tea handed by Shui Lanxin and took a sip.

After a short bitterness, there is an endless sweetness.

"You're back so soon this time. Have Bing'er and the others already arrived at Seagod Island?"

Lin Chuan nodded, "The trip went smoothly. The eight of them have stayed at Seagod Island to take the test, and Bing'er has also successfully passed the Seagod Nine Tests. As long as she passes it successfully and breaks through the hundredth level of soul power, she can inherit the Seagod throne. However, she probably won't be able to come back for several years."

"That's great. Let them stay at Seagod Island to practice well. We old guys can still hold on for a while!"

Shui Lanxin smiled brightly, feeling happy from the bottom of her heart.

Before, she envied Ye Lingling and Duguyan for inheriting the throne, only the Shui family and Tianshui Academy did not get anything. Now Shui Bing'er is also favored by the gods, so she doesn't have to envy others anymore.

"Dean Shui is just joking. You are not an old guy. You are still in your prime and charming!"

Lin Chuan couldn't help but joking with a sly smile.

Shui Lanxin immediately gave her a look of anger at her.

This little guy is getting bolder and bolder, even daring to tease her!

"Senior Dugu, Yanzi has returned to the Earth Temple to continue the test. Lingling and I personally sent her there before returning, and no one can enter that place, so you don't have to worry about Yanzi's safety."

Hearing this, Dugu Bo's expression eased and he nodded gently.

"What about you and Lingling? Are you leaving to continue the test?"

Lin Chuan immediately shook his head, "Lingling's next test is to improve her soul power level, so she doesn't need to return to the Life Temple for the time being, so she can stay in Xueyuan City for the time being!"

"That's great, I can be a lot more relaxed with you."

Shui Lanxin smiled at the corner of her mouth, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"Uh..." Lin Chuan smiled awkwardly, "I'm afraid that won't work. I have to hurry up and practice to deal with future crises, so I'll have to worry about the affairs of the territory."

"I've been traveling for several days and I'm really tired. Lingling and I will go back to rest first."

After saying that, without waiting for Shui Lanxin to speak, Lin Chuan quickly pulled up Ye Lingling and ran towards the room at a fast speed.

"This bastard is really abominable. I was really fooled by him at the beginning!"

Shui Lanxin was so angry that her teeth itched when she came to her senses.

But she was just complaining. Even if time went back to the past, I'm afraid she would still make the same choice.

After all, if it weren't for Lin Chuan, Shui Lanxin wouldn't have been able to become a Titled Douluo so quickly, let alone let Shui Bing'er be recognized by the Sea God!

All of this was almost given by Lin Chuan. In comparison, it was just handling some affairs, and it was not even qualified to be a reward.

Even though she is a Titled Douluo, Lin Chuan's current strength is far beyond hers.

The only thing he can do now is to help deal with the affairs in the territory!
