Douluo Dalu: Golden Spirit Tree

Chapter 11: Domain, Sacrifice

Seeing his son quietly watching the Blue Silver Grass break through, Ouyang Xi called out again, "My dear, come quickly. Absorb this 4,000-year-old Blue Silver Grass and you will be able to break through."

But Xiao Linyi still didn't move. Ouyang Xi was a little dissatisfied. The good boy was no longer close to her. Before, he would run over and jump into her arms when she called him.

Lin Qingxuan stopped his wife and said, "Alright, it's rare to see a soul beast breakthrough. Since Xiaoyi is interested and wants to see it, let him watch."

Ouyang Xi then gave up and waited quietly.

Xiao Lin Yi just quietly looked at the blue silver grass that had broken through. Looking at this blue silver grass that had no possibility of breaking through, Xiao Lin Yi felt a little strange.

"Why? You've clearly lost all hope of breaking through, your life is almost over, and you're struggling to survive?"

However, the Blue Silver Grass would not respond to Xiao Linyi's words. It just gathered all its life force and tried to break through again and again, but was blocked by the shackles of ten thousand years again and again. Because of the withdrawal of life force, the leaves of the Blue Silver Grass began to turn yellow and shrink, but the Blue Silver Grass seemed to be unaware of it and just kept attacking the shackles of ten thousand years.

once……

twice……

countless times……

Xiao Linyi didn't know how many times the Blue Silver Grass had attacked. He just watched as the aura of the Blue Silver Grass became weaker and weaker, but the Blue Silver Grass still tirelessly attacked the ten thousand year shackles.

As if sensing the Blue Silver Grass's stubbornness, Xiao Linyi murmured, "Is this your will? In other worlds, there's a theory of cause and effect. My mother's aura blocking you earlier was the cause, so I apologize to you on my mother's behalf. Helping you must be the result."

Xiao Lin Yi summoned his golden tree martial spirit, but Xiao Lin Yi now has no soul skills, how can he help?

The next moment, as if blessed with spiritual power, Xiao Lin Yi injected his soul power into his martial soul. Then a golden light circle spread out from the golden tree. Xiao Lin Yi's soul power rapidly dissipated, and the light circle spread to a range of nearly 100 meters.

Within the aperture, light and life force gathered madly, and following the guidance of Xiaolin's strange consciousness, they sank into the blue silver grass.

The three people standing by were all stunned by this sudden scene, and then exclaimed, "Field?!"

For soul masters, due to the existence of soul beasts, soul skills can be said to be diverse, but if there is a choice, domain-type soul skills must be one of the soul masters' must-haves, or even the only one.

But Xiao Lin Yi didn’t even have his first soul ring at this time, so there was only one possibility, the innate realm!

"It's a blessing from nature, really a blessing from nature," Moon sighed softly.

Lin Qingxuan and Ouyang Xi's eyes were filled with relief and pride.

With the release of Xiao Linyi's golden domain, the blue silver grass, which had originally begun to wilte, glowed blue again, and a faint emotion containing joy and gratitude flowed out, but no one noticed.

The Blue Silver Grass once again gathered its vitality and soul power and charged towards the ten thousand year shackles.

Once again...

twice……

three times……

The shackles of ten thousand years are like insurmountable mountains, blocking the way forward for the Blue Silver Grass.

Ten minutes passed, and the Blue Silver Grass launched countless attacks, but it still failed.

Xiao Lin Yi is just a soul master. Even though his innate soul power exceeds level ten, the domain itself consumes a lot of soul power. Being able to last for ten minutes is already a result of the excellent quality of Xiao Lin Yi's soul power.

Looking at the Blue Silver Grass whose aura dropped again, a trace of sadness flashed in Xiao Linyi's eyes. Did he still fail?
"The seventh soul skill, Martial Soul Avatar."

The sudden powerful soul power fluctuation woke Xiao Lin Yi up. Looking in the direction of the sound, it turned out to be Lin Qingxuan using his life Wutong martial soul true body.

Life Wutong, a top-level auxiliary healing martial spirit, the dozens of meters high Wutong tree slowly stretches out, exuding a rich breath of life.

Two green rays of light full of vitality shot out from the paulownia tree towards Xiao Linyi and Blue Silver Grass.

"dad?"

"Since you want to help it, then dad will lend you a hand." Xiao Lin Yi learned today how powerful the healing ability of a Soul Sage with a soul power of level 78 and a top-level healing martial soul is when he releases his martial soul true body.

His whole body was filled with strength, and the speed at which his soul power recovered even exceeded the speed at which it was consumed. The originally dim area lit up again, and once again condensed rich light and breath of life, which were injected into the blue silver grass without reservation.

The domain brought by a soul master with dual extreme attributes, plus the assistance of a top-level healing soul master, one focuses on quality and the other on quantity. Blue Silver Grass has never fought such a rich battle in its life.

The blue silver grass condensed its vitality and soul power, and madly attacked the ten thousand year old shackles. It seemed that the countless attacks took effect, and the originally indestructible shackles finally loosened a little.

However, after countless attacks, even with the help of Xiao Lin Yi and Lin Qingxuan, the father and son, Lan Yincao's body was still severely damaged. It was the backlash brought about by the forced breakthrough.

The Blue Silver Grass seemed unaware of the condition of its own body and just kept attacking, trying to break through.

At this time, the body of the blue silver grass was almost broken, and the sparse and broken leaves seemed to be telling that its life was about to end.

"That's enough. You've tried your best. Let's stop here." Xiao Linyi looked reluctant.

Blue Silver Grass did not respond, or perhaps it did not hear.

The nearly broken body suddenly ignited with blue flames, and its momentum suddenly rose to the extreme.

Xiao Lin Yi didn't understand what was going on and looked at his father.

Lin Qingxuan still maintained his martial soul's true form and sighed, "It ignited its own original vitality."

"What will happen?"

"Excessive consumption of the original vitality means the end of life, and if it ignites on its own, death is inevitable."

Xiao Linyi seemed unable to understand, "Why? Even if I break through to ten thousand years, what will it matter? I'll lose my life."

Moon, who had been silent the entire time, just watching quietly, walked over to Xiao Linyi and patted his head. "My child, the road to becoming stronger won't always be smooth sailing. Sometimes, you have to be determined to risk everything. Although this Blue Silver Grass is just a soul beast, I hope you can learn something from it."

Xiao Linyi was silent for a while, looking at the Blue Silver Grass that he had staked everything on. After a long moment, he nodded gently, "Master, I understand."

After the Blue Silver Grass ignited its original vitality, it compressed everything to the extreme, and then blasted towards the ten thousand year old shackles. There was a faint loud noise, and the aura emanating from the Blue Silver Grass suddenly became several times stronger.

The ten thousand year old blue silver grass has broken through.

However, the aura of the blue silver grass that had broken through the ten thousand year age limit was only strong for a moment, and then it declined at an alarming speed, and in the blink of an eye, it had fallen to the bottom.

Looking at the blue silver grass with a broken body and weak breath, Xiao Linyi didn't know what to say. Lin Qingxuan had already released his martial soul avatar, and now the blue silver grass was no longer needed.

Xiao Lin Yi did not put away his domain. The rich life force was poured into the blue silver grass and then dispersed from the broken parts. Even if no one explained, Xiao Lin Yi knew that the life of this blue silver grass had come to an end.

Walking in front of the broken blue silver grass, Xiao Lin Yi didn't know what to say, and the three people beside him didn't stop him. The ten thousand year soul beast was indeed dangerous, but the blue silver grass was too weak now, and it couldn't even pose a threat to Xiao Lin Yi.

"Thank you..." A faint mental fluctuation came from the blue silver grass. After breaking through to ten thousand years later, the blue silver grass's intelligence was greatly awakened.

Xiao Linyi pursed his lips, still not knowing what to say. In this situation, what else could he say...

In the end, Xiao Lin Yi just reached out and touched the broken body of Blue Silver Grass.

"Accept my final gift."

Faint mental fluctuations emanated from the Blue Silver Grass's body. Before Xiao Linyi could ask any questions, dazzling flames ignited on the Blue Silver Grass's body again.

The three people on the side did not stop it because they did not sense any danger or malice from the blue silver grass.

Only Moon showed shock in his eyes, because he seemed to have seen this situation in the academy's classics.

As the flames burned, Lan Yincao's originally broken body seemed to melt, and it seeped into Xiao Linyi's body along the hand that was originally stroking him.

The original blue silver grass has disappeared, as if it had never appeared. Only the withered, shriveled and fallen leaves in its place seem to be telling that the blue silver grass once existed.

Seeing this scene, Moon finally confirmed that this was indeed the legendary ritual recorded in the academy's books - sacrifice!
