"Thank you everyone for saving my life. My Ling family will remember this kindness."
It was the daughter of the head of the family who had the right to say this.
But Xu Mingxi hadn't done it for this. She just didn't want to see someone she knew die in the mouth of a beast.
"You're welcome. Do you want to come out with us?"
"Alright, thank you very much."
Although Ling Yilan hadn't gotten the fourth soul ring yet, Grandma Shuanglan was already seriously injured, so she could only return to the family first.
It was good enough that Xu Mingxi saved her, she didn't dare to ask Xu Mingxi for help to hunt the spirit ring again.
Instead, there were only two of them in the entire Ling family, and now they appeared as Xu Mingxi's bodyguards.
As Ling Yilan rushed on her way, she stared at Xu Mingxi in front of her and forgot her unrealistic delusion.
Xu Mingxi is from a different world than me.
After letting go of her fantasy, Ling Yilan found it much easier to get along with Xu Mingxi. He introduced her to many interesting things on the continent, and also to many powerful soul masters.
For example, Bibi Dong, the new disciple of the Spirit Hall's Soul Angel Douluo Qianxunji, had begun to appear on the mainland.
Thinking of the originally normal woman going crazy because of Qianxunji, Xu Mingxi felt a headache.
If the Spirit Hall trained her well and Qian Xunji didn't cause any trouble, the Spirit Hall would unify the continent while Tang San was yet to grow up.
Xu Mingxi felt that Bibi Dong was the most talented person in the Douluo Continent, but it was a pity he wasn't clear-headed enough to fall for a loser.
Forget it, let's think about these things later. After all, Aunt Dong would persecute the Spirit Hall and the three upper sects.
"Miss Ling, I go back first."
"Alright, my Ling family is in Tianbing City, you can visit anytime."
Xu Mingxi bid farewell to Ling Yilan and immediately rushed towards the sect.
Before, I hadn't paid much attention to anything in the Far North, but I didn't expect that after more than ten days, the strife on the continent would become even more intense.
Zhenbei Lane, the front line in the battle against the beasts of the Far North, seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder.
The three of them rushed back to the sect and heard some news from the sect master.
Emperor Xue Yin of the Heaven Dou Empire passed away, and Xue Ye ascended the throne and took over the entire Heaven Dou Empire.
Qian Xunji of the Spirit Hall broke through to become a Titled Douluo and officially occupied the position of Pope.
Qian Xunji was not like Qian Daoliu. He was ambitious and wanted the Spirit Hall to unify the Douluo Continent.
Despite the possibility that Tang Chen might still be alive, they instantly began to suppress the power of the top three sects.
Because of Tang Chen's disappearance and fear of Qian Daoliu's power, the top three sects had no choice but to surrender everywhere, and their sphere of influence continued to shrink.
The sect leader also told the three people a piece of news that shocked Xu Mingxi.
Ning Tiansheng, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the only Douo Degree of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, died suddenly while he was helping a visiting official obtain an eighth soul ring.
Whether it was an accident or not, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was in a situation that could have crumbled at any moment.
At this time, Ning Fengzhi, who had just celebrated his 40th birthday, took over the position of sect leader.
He recruited two Titled Douluo, Sword and Bone, out of nowhere and completely stabilized the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
However, because of this incident, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect completely cut ties with the Spirit Hall, and its cooperation with the Heaven Dou Empire became even closer.
Since then, faces familiar to Xu Mingxi gradually appeared on the big stage of the Douluo Continent.
"Mingxi, is it safe to obtain the fourth spirit ring this time?"
"Sect Master, my spiritual ability this time is indeed the Star Protector, but Grandfather and Second Elder said that it's different from the Star Protector commonly used by tribe members."
As he spoke, Xu Mingxi instantly ignited his martial soul, and the fourth soul ring ignited. The sect leader caught a glimpse of silver threads among the bright starlight.
However, he had never seen such a situation before, and it was not recorded in the records of the Star Ancestor.
"Mingxi, you go back first. I'll check the ancient books and let you know when there's news."
The sect leader had said this, and Xu Mingxi wasn't the kind of person who didn't understand what others were saying. He obediently returned home and received a warm welcome from his parents and friends.
Xu Mingxi originally thought the matter had passed him by, but who would have thought that when he practiced under the star tree the next day, his two seniors actually gave him a big surprise.
Just as Xu Mingxi activated his first soul skill as usual, intending to artificially create a simulated training field with stronger starlight.
Who would have thought that once the first soul skill was released, the Star Tree and Star Seeking Plant would actually instantly wake up from their dormant state.
The face of an old man appeared on the trunk of the Star Tree, and the thick body of the Star Seeker Plant dangled from its dense crown.
Just now they felt an unprecedented throb in their blood.
"Son of the Star Crown Sect, what exactly did you just do?"
Xu Mingxi had already been frightened by the Tree Elder and Vine Elder, and when he heard this, he instantly became confused.
"I didn't do anything. I just cast my first soul skill as usual, Star Summoning. You know that."
"No, that's not right. Release it again."
Old Teng came right in front of Xu Mingxi and stared at him, as if he had seen an incomparable treasure.
Xu Mingguang and his son and the two elders practicing here were also attracted and surrounded Xu Mingxi.
I really don't know what happened. Xu Mingxi wanted to cry but there were no tears. He could only follow Master Teng's instructions and use his first soul skill again.
"Yes, it's him."
Master Teng's exclamation caught everyone's attention. It was the first time they had seen him so excited.
I saw the trunk of the old vine hanging on the star tree continue to stretch, stretching straight towards the starlight pointing downwards. Even the old tree was stretching, and the trunk that had remained unchanged for hundreds of years began to grow.
This scene was truly shocking, and some of the elders had already left to tell the sect master and some other elders.
Suddenly, Mr. Teng seemed to have grabbed something from the starlight, and he pulled it back violently, landing right in front of Xu Mingxi.
Xu Mingxi observed intently and saw that there was a streak of silver-white light on Master Teng's body.
"Master Teng, this is..."
"I'm not wrong. This is not ordinary moonlight, but the essence of the legendary moonlight.
For us plant soul beings, especially for the Star Seeking Plant and Star Tree clans, this is a treasure that allows us to grow and even evolve."
The essence of moonlight?
Xu Mingxi felt that its color was indeed very similar to the moonlight that appeared in his fourth soul skill.
However, wasn't this his first soul skill? Could it be that after absorbing the Moonviewing Frog's soul ring, his martial soul had changed?
Xu Mingxi suddenly had a crazy idea, and once this idea was born, he could no longer stop it.
Star Crown was already the best martial soul in the world. If it evolved further, it would become a god-level martial soul.
What's more, the starlight and moonlight reminded Xu Mingxi of the legendary sun, moon, and starlight in his previous life.
Could I really become a god?
