The Tree World Descends into Douluo Continent

Chapter 126 Human race, martial spirit, and the power of nature.

Dugu Yan looked at Li Xun with a smile.

"Sister Yan, the main reason is that I'm busy recently." Li Xun laughed.

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes at Li Xun and said, "Now that the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition is approaching, we don't see you often, and we are worried."

"Don't worry, Sister Yan, I will definitely train with you guys recently." Li Xun was also a little embarrassed. After all, he is still the leader of the Tiandou Royal Team.

"It's settled then." Seeing Li Xun's embarrassed look, Dugu Yan smoothed the hair by her ears and chuckled.

More than ten days have passed since the powerful king Tainuo was defeated by Li Xun.

Perhaps considering the strength of Tiandou Royal Academy and Qibao Liuli Sect, Titan, the patriarch of the Li clan, did not arrive as everyone expected.

Yang Wudi had already arrived, but when he heard that the Li clan had adopted a young master, he did not go to the Li clan’s base in Tiandou City.

The training of the Tiandou Royal Team is in full swing, but Li Xun encountered a problem during his practice.

"Failed again."

Li Xun sighed as he looked at his woody right hand, then held his breath, grasped the edge of the wood with his left hand and pried it apart. The woody part of his body was pried off by him.

Holding his right wrist tightly to prevent heavy bleeding, Li Xun stared in a daze at the rapidly healing area.

He had lost count of how many times he had failed in his cultivation of immortal arts. He originally thought that soul power was the power of nature, but now it seemed that this was not entirely true.

Immortal arts are a stronger force created by the balance of chakra, spiritual power and natural power in the body. Compared with a few years ago, since he was baptized by the Blue Silver King, the chakra and soul power in his body have long been integrated.

According to Li Xun's thinking, as long as he balances his mental power with his current strength, he should be able to use magic.

But he failed.

When Li Xun balanced his mental power with the energy in his body, not only did the energy in his body not change at all, he didn't even feel the slightest bit of risk, let alone magic, it was exactly the same as usual.

Afterwards, he no longer focused on the soul power that had been condensed in his body, and turned to draw strength again from the heaven and earth. Unexpectedly, his body began to turn into wood, and no matter how careful he was, he could not avoid it.

Just like the magic of Myoboku Mountain in Naruto will turn into a stone toad statue, if his magic practice is not balanced with the chakra in his body, it will turn into a wooden sculpture.

"No, something must be wrong."

Li Xun murmured, "Only when I absorb a large amount of external energy will it have some impact on me. It can be concluded that the external energy should be the power of nature, but what about the soul power in my body?"

Carefully feeling the changes in the energy in my body, "Could it be that without my knowledge, the external energy has been changed after entering my body?"

After pondering for a long time, Li Xun summoned his martial soul and looked at the emerald green thousand-handed wooden sculpture in his hand: "Could it be because of the martial soul?"

Empty your mind and feel the natural force flowing between the sky and the earth. A flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to Li Xun.

Human beings have walked from ancient times to today, constantly experiencing changes in the world, but have been able to survive various natural disasters and diseases time and time again because of human beings' ability to adapt to environmental changes.

The martial spirit may be a product of human evolution to fight against the environment of Douluo Continent. Li Xun thought of this possibility, stood up suddenly, and quickly rushed to the library of Tiandou Royal Academy. In Douluo, where martial arts are respected, places like libraries are not popular among students. They prefer to practice the use of soul skills in their spare time.

Only those who have no hope of improving their soul power like to learn more knowledge as a means of making a living.

Li Xun did not stop along the way and searched carefully in the library until he came to a section about the theory of continental evolution and stopped.

Just like the evolution and archaeological theories of the future, there are inevitably some soul masters in Douluo who, due to the limitations of their own martial soul talents, choose other paths.

These people's research is different from Master Xiaogang's. Their research is closer to human beings themselves and the evolution of the continent. Of course, doing this kind of research in the fantasy world is equivalent to weaving myths.

Li Xun picked up a book called "Legend of Dragon God", which recorded many legends and myths about the ancient dragon clan.

These myths are discontinuous and the logic is not coherent in some places, but this also awakened Li Xun's deeper memories.

"In ancient times, the dragon race fought a great war and left corpses everywhere. The aura of the God Realm and the blood of the dragon race leaked out and flowed into the Douluo Continent. Humans, beasts, and plants were affected by this aura and began to mutate and evolve."

Li Xun kept looking at the books on the bookshelf, comparing and combining them with the memories in his mind, and selectively skipping over any parts that were too contradictory.

Li Xun's action also attracted the attention of other students. After all, even students like them with lower soul power would not choose to read historical stories.

However, due to Li Xun's fame in the academy, these students did not dare to approach him but whispered to each other from a distance, guessing his purpose.

Li Xun seemed oblivious to the situation in the outside world. He slowly closed the book and put the books on the ground back on the bookshelf one by one. He now had a rough idea of what was happening to him.

"So, the evolution of humans in Douluo was interfered with by the outside world."

Li Xun lowered his head and walked in the flat academy, his mind wandering: "This kind of evolution has nothing to do with the natural evolution of human beings. It came too suddenly, and it seems more like a forced choice of human beings."

“The blood of the Dragon God and the aura of the God Realm were probably more like a disaster to the humans of that period.”

"After all, if people nowadays absorb spirit rings beyond their level, they may explode and die, not to mention that they will inevitably be affected if they suddenly receive energy of a higher level."

Li Xun suddenly thought that these so-called dragons did not seem to be creatures of this world.

"Foreign species carry a lot of viruses or radiation, causing wild animals and plants to begin to evolve. In order to adapt to the environment, humans evolved martial spirits. One is passive evolution, the second is to fight against foreign spirit beasts, and the third is to convert external energy into harmless power to reduce negative effects."

"In ancient times, external energy should have been harmful to the human race, but after a long time, this harm may have been eliminated by this planet or assimilated into its own rules."

"But martial spirits have been rooted in human genes over a long period of time." Li Xun couldn't help but rub his head. He really had a headache now.

If this is true, it means that as long as the martial soul still exists in his body, the energy absorbed can never be natural force.

It will only be transformed by the martial soul into soul power that is more suitable for the physique of the Douluo human race.

But this also gave Li Xun other ideas.

If the human race had not been influenced by the dragon race, would they have evolved a more powerful way of cultivation? If the human race had resisted the influence of the dragon race's bloodline and the aura of the divine world, would they have evolved into a stronger physique and potential?
