Chapter 173 The Blazing Sun Domain, The Sixth Soul Ring Delivered to Your Door

The new Martial Soul phantom is quite different from what everyone imagined.

Han Li had previously envisioned what Jiuying would look like, after all, Ma Hongjun's martial soul evolved into a seven-headed fire phoenix after consuming the inner core of the ten-headed blazing sun snake.

Or perhaps Dugu Yan's martial soul would have directly transformed into the Ten-Headed Blazing Sun Serpent, but she never expected it to turn out like this.

Overall, the Flamewing Serpent Spirit's appearance hasn't changed much; it hasn't even grown an extra head. However, on its head, nine golden-red phantoms, like the sun, are arranged in a strange way, giving it a sacred aura.

Hmm, it must be because of the high concentration of snakes. The head that was originally half-dragon has now turned back into a snake, and it looks very similar to the head of the Ten-Headed Sun Serpent.

Its original appearance, which had gradually turned vermilion, has now completely changed to golden red after this evolution. In terms of appearance, it looks much better than before.

Dugu Yan now has a mark on her forehead that resembles both a snake and a flame. Combined with her current golden-red hair and much whiter skin, she looks incredibly dashing, possessing a beauty that is almost too striking to look at directly, as if even one's gaze would be burned.

It's worth mentioning that Dugu Yan's already established figure has become even more stunning, while her waist has become even slimmer, making people hesitate to approach her because of her aura, while at the same time feeling a strong desire to conquer her.

Han Li blinked unconsciously, thinking to himself, "Martial Soul evolution is really great."

Each evolution is like a completely different person, and coincidentally, he witnessed the entire process and experienced every stage.

But the strongest reaction came not from Han Li, but from the other two girls. They stared at Dugu Yan with wide eyes, their envy practically overflowing.

"Very good."

Dugu Bo suddenly spoke up. It was clear that he was feeling unwell, a sign that his martial spirit was being suppressed, but his expression was one of extreme excitement.

At that sound, Dugu Yan also woke up, opened her eyes and stood up. At the same time, a smile appeared on her face, which was very beautiful.

And the spirit rings above her head also appeared one after another, with the golden-red spirit ring at the very top coming into everyone's view.

"Golden red, is this the natal spirit ring that Xiao Li mentioned?"

Dugu Bo's voice trembled slightly; Dugu Yan's gains this time were far beyond his expectations.

"Grandpa, you guessed right, it's my natal spirit ring, it can grow with me. It's a bit of a pity, if I had known it would turn out this way, I should have put it as my seventh spirit ring."

Dugu Yan was initially delighted, but then replied with some reluctance.

As she spoke, the spirit ring above her head flashed, as if responding to her words.

"The energy of the inner core is limited. If it were the seventh spirit ring, it might not be able to form a natal spirit ring while improving the martial spirit. The current state is already quite good."

Han Li looked at her somewhat greedy expression and added a comment.

He had thought about this issue before, but after calculating with the plane's consciousness, he decided to make it his sixth spirit ring so that he could maximize its efficiency.

Moreover, before reaching the Soul Saint level, the upgrade of the Martial Soul leads to the transformation of the fire attribute into the ultimate fire, which greatly helps in the subsequent condensation of the Soul Core.

"Hey, I was just saying."

Dugu Yan smiled somewhat embarrassedly; she had indeed been a bit too greedy.

However, the next second, she looked at the group with a cheerful smile.

"My gains don't stop there. Do you want to guess again? Oh, and Xiao Li, you're not allowed to guess."

Dugu Yan immediately activated the silencing spell, and Han Li smiled and shut his mouth as well.

There was no way he could resist the threatening gaze from the newly-skinned Cassiopeia, especially if he wanted to experience an even thinner waist in the future.

Guangling gave him a disdainful look and decisively joined in the riddle game; he couldn't refuse such a childish game either.

Despite their back-and-forth exchanges, Dugu Yan's intelligence was still updated.

The sixth spirit ring currently has a lifespan of only 50,000 years, but considering that it can continue to grow, this can be ignored.

As for the soul skill, it was named Nine Suns Radiant Sun by Dugu Yan. It is a relatively flexible move that can concentrate the attack on a single point or launch a wide-range attack.

When using her soul skills, the nine golden-red suns floating above her martial soul's head emit fire-attribute rays. These rays are freely manipulated by Dugu Yan and can also be merged together to form an even stronger attack.

Furthermore, Dugu Yan could also choose to unleash the nine blazing suns directly, creating a bombardment zone within her mental energy range, or even self-destruct, but in that case, the recovery period would be much longer.

Overall, her sixth soul skill can be seen as a martial soul true form that does not strengthen herself but enhances her attack.

Finally, her greatest gain was a domain, which she named the Blazing Sun Domain.

After the domain is expanded, a scene of nine suns appearing in the sky will appear within the domain, and not only that, but the area below will also turn into a sea of ​​fire.

Within her domain, Dugu Yan's fire damage is increased by 100%, and she also possesses the ability to transform into flames, allowing her to avoid physical damage to the greatest extent possible.

Her enemies, if they are within the domain, will have their soul power or mental power ignited over time and suffer continuous erosion from the fire poison.

The most bizarre thing is that, perhaps because of the extreme fire, other elements are directly repelled and cannot be used within the domain, which is the same as one of the effects of Han Li's Yin-Yang Domain.

"Go, Sister Yan! If one day you can combine the God of Slaughter Domain with it, then you will be the king in battles of the same level."

Han Li smiled and offered a word of encouragement, only to be met with a glare in return.

"The consumption of the Blazing Sun Domain is too great. I can't afford to use it right now. Let's wait until later to merge it."

When Dugu Yan realized she had reached level 67, she was pleasantly surprised, but after trying it out, she turned into a sour face.

"Haha, take your time. The power of your domain will only begin to show after you reach level 70."

Dugu Bo was grinning from ear to ear.

His granddaughter possesses two domains, one of which is an innate domain inherent to her martial soul. This is what it means to be from a top-tier family with snake-type martial souls on the continent.

Good news arrived, and the atmosphere in the courtyard became lively again. As the night deepened, the house became quiet, and another good night's sleep ensued.

The next day, the group briefly stopped cultivating and didn't get up until the sun was high in the sky. They then went to the town's merchant guild to exchange for some supplies.

Steal the floating life for half a day.

In the afternoon, the three girls went out shopping, while the four men played chess by the pond in the yard, chatting casually and enjoying a long-lost moment of leisure.

As for worrying about the three of them, forget it. They still occasionally leak information about their killings, and this isn't a place where Soul Masters often hang out. It's good enough that they don't bully anyone.

Sure enough, they didn't return until almost dark. They were clearly in high spirits, having brought food and gifts for each of them.

Early the next morning, a luxurious carriage set off again, leaving the town and heading towards the Starry Sky Forest.

The group reappeared more than ten days later, having entered the Star Dou Great Forest while avoiding the sight of others.

"Will Bing'er's sixth spirit ring require her to travel to the Frozen Forest?"

After some time, Guangling seemed to realize that this time, not only Han Li, but also Xiu'er and Shui Bing'er needed to obtain soul rings.

"No need. There are also suitable soul beasts for Bing'er here, such as a snow kite that has unexpectedly taken up residence here."

Han Li smiled and replied, as for whether it was truly an accident, only he himself knew the answer.

What a coincidence?

The group blinked and stopped asking questions, which was considered an admission of Han Li's statement.

Well, after all, it's the Star Dou Great Forest, so it's not surprising that anything could happen there, especially since it was Han Li who said it himself.

Then, after walking for half a day, Han Li, who was walking in front, reached out to stop everyone's actions and told them to conceal their presence as much as possible.

As expected, after Han Li and the others had been waiting in place for nearly ten minutes, an angry snow kite chased after a dark golden bear carrying an egg. The dark golden bear kept turning back and throwing boulders, creating a very comical scene that made the group facepalm.

Han Li watched this scene without changing his expression. There was nothing he could do; he had really done his best. It wasn't until he communicated with his beloved son that he realized the otherworldly consciousness had also been suffering in silence.

This situation is already one he has optimized; otherwise, the situation would have been even more outrageous.

"Master, Uncle-Master, Grandfather, let's all act together, but don't make too much noise, so as not to affect what happens next."

Seeing that the others were actually watching the commotion with great interest, Han Li couldn't help but urge them on.

"Okay, coming right away."

Although this scene was quite amusing, the group had seen even more outrageous situations over the years, so they quickly took action.

The three Super Douluo attacked swiftly and decisively, giving the two guest actors no chance to resist before they fell into a coma.

Guangling secretly stuffed the bird eggs into his storage space without making a sound, so they would serve as his food in the future.

Everything went so smoothly, as if arranged by fate. The two absorbed the spirit rings effortlessly, and also acquired two spirit bones along the way.

However, the two did not choose to absorb it directly, but instead temporarily stored it away.

They hadn't forgotten what Guangling had said before: once the soul core was formed, it could accelerate cultivation, so absorbing it now would be a waste.

Similarly, the two reached levels 62 and 66 respectively, with Shui Bing'er's level jump being the most significant, jumping 9 levels within a year.

However, her period of explosive growth has passed in the short term, and the gap in soul power required is getting bigger and bigger. She can only make up for the slow progress of cultivating the ultimate attributes before becoming a Soul Saint by having the three of them cultivate together.

It's worth noting that the reason she was able to gain so much weight this time was because Han Li took care of her and Dugu Yan, and during that big attack in the Killing City, he specially left some meat for the two of them.

Xiuer and Dugu Bo could only be said to have had a little bit of soup in that battle.

Even so, the group was very satisfied with their progress over the past year.

It should be noted that although their soul power growth was not much faster than before, they had made significant progress in their physical body, mental strength, and combat power, which was unimaginable to others.

Their peers are still struggling at the Soul Venerable and Soul Master stages, and even those are the most outstanding batch.

"Alright, those two are done. Xiao Li, what's your target?"

"You mean the Dark Demon God Tiger? Look over there."

Han Li's lips curled slightly as he pointed to the northwest, where many flying soul beasts were frantically fleeing above the forest.
