Chapter 32: Resonance
"Second Soul Skill: Extreme Ice Domain."
In an instant, the second thousand-year soul ring on Jiang Li's body released a powerful and dazzling light.
An ice-blue circle appeared beneath his feet, quickly expanding in all directions at a rapid pace, like a snowstorm sweeping through the area.
The region within this circle underwent a dramatic transformation, becoming a world of ice-blue hues.
Endless freezing power surged from all directions, and the temperature sharply plummeted.
The Face-Spider was also terrified by this domain, its body trembling slightly, its eyes filled with fear and despair.
It tried to flee, but within this Extreme Ice Domain, even soul power could be frozen to a certain extent.
As a result, despite the Face-Spider's considerable speed, it was greatly slowed down in the Extreme Ice Domain, each step becoming increasingly difficult, as if it were a trapped beast trying to move across a frozen surface.
Jiang Li immediately leaped into the air, once again summoning an ice-blue longsword and thrusting it directly toward the Face-Spider.
Within the Extreme Ice Domain, his own extreme ice attributes were greatly enhanced.
Meanwhile, the Face-Spider was constrained by the freezing power, making its movements sluggish and clumsy.
As a result, Jiang Li gradually gained the upper hand.
Jiang Li had nearly figured out his own strength, and realized that the Face-Spider no longer posed much of a threat to him.
Thus, he had no intention of dragging the battle out any longer.
With a swift swing of his sword, a cold light flashed, and he decisively killed the Face-Spider.
"Buzz!"
After a while, a purple soul ring floated from the Face-Spider's body, emitting a mysterious glow.
Seeing this, Jiang Li gently waved his right hand and dismissed the Extreme Ice Domain.
After the battle, Jiang Li did not stay in the same spot for long, and proceeded deeper into the Star Dou Forest.
Along the way, he encountered many thousand-year soul beasts, and even some ten-thousand-year soul beasts.
These soul beasts had various unique traits, some with powerful attack capabilities, while others possessed strange abilities.
After half a day of training, Jiang Li had a clear and accurate assessment of his own strength.
He found that soul beasts under ten thousand years were no longer a challenge for him. He could easily handle and defeat them.
As for some ordinary soul beasts that had just broken through ten thousand years, they were still not much of a concern, unless they were soul beasts with top-tier bloodlines, in which case Jiang Li would need to put more effort into defeating them.
"By the way, Lei Yao, Ling Yun, can you both look for some treasures in the Star Dou Forest, like soul bones or rare herbs?"
After finishing his training, Jiang Li suddenly thought of something and spoke to Lei Yao and Ling Yun.
He knew well that he couldn't rely on the system's lottery to auction everything in the future.
The system lottery had many uncertainties, like a gamble filled with unknowns.
After all, the Star Dou Forest was the largest soul beast forest on the Douluo Continent, and it was like a mysterious treasure trove, full of countless treasures.
Especially in the territories of some powerful soul beasts, there might be rare and priceless items guarded there.
These treasures would be of great help, both to the development of the Star Auction Pavilion and to his own strength improvement.
"The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes in the Sunset Forest, I must go and take them down when I have the chance."
Jiang Li thought of a famous place on the Douluo Continent, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes.
The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eyes contained countless rare immortal herbs, treasures that countless soul masters dreamed of.
Jiang Li knew the value of these immortal herbs, and he quietly made up his mind to obtain them.
"I'll try. My Life Tree Martial Soul has a strong ability to sense precious herbs and plants."
Ling Yun spoke slowly.
Her Life Tree Martial Soul appeared, glowing with a soft and warm light, like the source of life.
Ling Yun closed her eyes, concentrated, and released powerful spiritual energy.
This spiritual power, carrying extreme life force, spread like an invisible net, expanding outward.
It began to resonate with the plants around them.
As Ling Yun's life force spread, Jiang Li could clearly feel the wondrous changes occurring in the plants around them.
The previously ordinary trees began to grow taller and stronger, nourished by this life energy.
Their branches swayed in the wind, as though joyously dancing, or as though resonating with Ling Yun's power.
"Huh, it's similar to the Blue Silver Emperor's Blue Silver Domain, able to resonate with large patches of Blue Silver Grass?"
Jiang Li couldn't help but feel curious about Ling Yun's power as he watched the scene unfold.
It seemed that with this mysterious resonance ability, Ling Yun could immediately sense the presence of rare immortal herbs.
This was extreme life force!
On the Douluo Continent, no soul master or soul beast with extreme life attributes had ever appeared before.
Even the Emerald Swan, considered the top life attribute soul beast on the Douluo Continent, a 400,000-year-old creature, did not possess extreme life attributes.
After a short while, Ling Yun seemed to catch some hidden fluctuation in the air, her aura tightening slightly, and she walked in a specific direction.
Jiang Li and Lei Yao exchanged glances and quickly followed her.
The three of them moved swiftly through the dense forest, branches and leaves rustling past them, making a hissing sound.
In just a few minutes, they entered a dreamy and ethereal forest.
Here, towering willow trees rose from the ground, their thick trunks resembling ancient totems, supporting a thick canopy of shade.
The willow leaves swayed gently in the breeze, like green silk ribbons, and each leaf seemed to contain the rhythm of life, exuding vibrant vitality.
"This is indeed a treasure trove, such a rich concentration of soul and life force."
As soon as Jiang Li stepped into this region, he took a deep breath. The rich life force flowed into his body through his nostrils, and he felt his entire body's pores come alive, his sense of fatigue dissipating instantly.
"Boom!"
At that moment, the willow trees were disturbed and noticed Jiang Li and the others approaching.
The previously gently swaying branches suddenly began to whip violently, making sharp whistling sounds as the trunks twisted, launching rapid attacks toward Jiang Li and the others.
The thick willow branches whipped through the air like steel whips, cutting through the air with a sharp wind, knocking over nearby bushes and sending soil flying.
In a split second, Ling Yun, who was leading, reacted.
A glimmer of light flashed in her usually calm eyes, and her aura instantly became both gentle and powerful.
"Buzz…"
The Life Tree Martial Soul gently rippled.
Endless life energy surged from her body, like a warm spring breeze that gently soothed the restive willows.
The willows, sensing the blessing of Ling Yun's extreme life force, immediately ceased their attacks.
Their branches swayed gently, as if expressing submission and gratitude, continuously absorbing the life energy released by Ling Yun.
Thus, Jiang Li and the others, under the protection of Ling Yun's life force, passed through smoothly and reached the center of the willow-encompassed area.
