Chapter 29 Hunting, Absorbing the Second Soul Ring After 4 Years

Having made up his mind, Jiang Ci'an jumped down from the tree, his footsteps landing silently on the soft soil.

"Indifference" quietly enveloped his entire body, completely concealing his presence. At the same time, Electrox's stealth magic was in full power.

With the double blessing, the Medusa snakes in front were completely unaware of Jiang Ci'an's approach.

They lay languidly in the shade around the boulder, motionless, as if taking a nap.

In the center of the snake swarm, a Medusa queen, noticeably larger than herself, was coiled in the shadiest corner.

Its tail is thick and long, estimated to be at least ten meters long, undoubtedly making it a ten-thousand-year-old Medusa Queen.

Its eyes were half-open, and its breath carried a foul stench. Occasionally, snake saliva would drip from the corner of its mouth, corroding small pits in the ground.

Jiang Ci'an's gaze lingered briefly on the Medusa Queen, then he walked slowly and naturally, stepping on the gaps between the snake tails on the ground.

One step, two steps, three steps...

Soon, Jiang Ci'an arrived in front of the mutant Medusa.

The power of "indifference" silently spreads.

The mutant Medusa was already taking a midday nap, and now, under the influence of "indifference," it seemed to be sleeping even more soundly.

The rise and fall of his chest became more gradual, the writhing of his snake hair slowly stopped, and his whole body relaxed and lay motionless on the stone, very peaceful.

Jiang Ci'an raised his hand and gently touched his brow.

Emerald green liquid metal slowly flowed from between his eyebrows, condensing into a short blade in his palm.

The blade is long and slender, entirely emerald green, like a piece of jade carved into the shape of a blade, exuding a rich sense of vitality.

Jiang Ci'an twisted his wrist, and the next moment, the blade silently sank into the neck of the mutant Medusa.

There was no gasp.

There was no struggle.

The mutant Medusa remained asleep, motionless.

But that already pale face seemed to become even paler as life was slowly drained away.

Jiang Ci'an remained calm, holding the short blade firmly in his hand, feeling the slight feedback coming from the blade.

A moment later, after confirming that the mutant Medusa in front of him was on the verge of death and had completely lost the ability to resist, Jiang Ci'an drew his short blade, coiled up the mutant Medusa's body, and hoisted it onto his shoulder.

His snake tail hung down to his side, and his huge snake body was heavy, but for him, who had been tempered by the "Body Tempering Method", this weight was nothing.

He returned the way he came, his steps light and quick.

The Medusa snakes remained calm, completely unaware of the intruder carrying one of their companions.

Soon, Jiang Ci'an moved away from the snake swarm, opened the gray door, and carried the mutant Medusa straight into it, disappearing completely from sight.

And it wasn't until quite some time after he disappeared that the increasingly scorching sunlight gradually made the shady spot under the boulder hot and dry.

Among the swarm of snakes, one Medusa stirred and naturally awoke, followed by a second, a third... until the Medusa Queen in the center also gradually awoke, her gaze sweeping over her surroundings, finally noticing something amiss.

The snakes suddenly surged, scattering in all directions as they searched for scent, startling flocks of birds in the woods.

All of this had absolutely nothing to do with Jiang Ci'an, who had already hidden himself in the undead demiplane.

……

……

Undead Demiplane.

Ignoring the situation outside, Jiang Ci'an threw the mutated Medusa on his shoulder directly to the ground, and cleanly stripped it of its last trace of life with the Blade of Life in his hand.

Without pain or struggle, the mutant Medusa died silently in her sleep.

Immediately, a deep purple soul ring slowly emerged from the mutant Medusa's body, appearing even more profound in the cold light of the undead demiplane.

Jiang Ci'an sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes to adjust his state, and then turned to look to the side.

"Thank you for your trouble, Elder Yi."

Electrolux nodded slightly, his gray robes fluttering even without wind, and chuckled softly:

"Of course."

Jiang Ci'an nodded, said no more, closed his eyes again, and began to absorb the soul ring.

Soul power surged from within his body, like countless tiny hands, slowly enveloping and drawing the deep purple soul ring around him, before gradually shrinking and incorporating it into his body.

In an instant, Jiang Ci'an felt a massive surge of energy enter his body.

It was like one stream suddenly merging into another, the water volume within the stream suddenly increasing, and violent energy rampaging through his meridians, trying to break through every inch of expandable space.

His physical body was constantly getting stronger, and at the same time, Jiang Ci'an's body was also slightly expanding.

Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the skin, and blood seeped out from the cracks, shimmering with a faint energy light, yet it did not completely burst open, maintaining a strange balance.

Jiang Ci'an frowned slightly, suppressing his energy, but secretly he breathed a sigh of relief.

It hurts, but it's still within my tolerance.

Without hesitation, the Eye of Life quietly opened between his brows.

Emerald green life force surged from between his brows, like a layer of warm water film, enveloping his entire body.

The cool touch seeped deep into the skin, and wherever it touched, the fine cracks began to heal, and the swelling and pain were gradually suppressed.

At the same time, the "Body Tempering Method" began to operate at full capacity.

At this moment, Jiang Ci'an was no longer passively enduring the erosion of the soul ring energy, but actively guiding it, organizing it, and absorbing it.

The energy surging from the spirit ring is gradually broken down by the "Body Tempering Method" and distributed to the limbs and bones to temper the muscles, bones, and meridians.

The process proceeded smoothly.

Meanwhile, Electrolux, while keeping an eye on Jiang Ci'an's condition, was also observing the absorption process of the spirit ring with great interest.

He was very interested in the system of this world.

Especially after Jiang Ci'an gave him the "Body Tempering Method" he had created and the "Mysterious Heaven Skill", many ideas arose in his mind.

Now is the perfect time to observe and explore what a Martial Soul is, what a Soul Ring is, and how the cultivation system of this world actually works.

His divine sense penetrated Jiang Ci'an's skin and muscles, landing on the meridians that were being washed by energy, the deep purple soul ring that was slowly merging with Jiang Ci'an, and the "spiritual aperture" between his eyebrows that he had personally modified.

Golden eyes reflected a blend of emerald green and deep purple light.

Time flies.

Several hours later,

Jiang Ci'an's soul power fluctuations finally stabilized.

The deep purple spirit ring slowly enveloped his body, standing side by side with the bright yellow first spirit ring. One yellow and one purple, they quietly circled him and slowly rotated.

Jiang Ci'an opened his eyes.

A glint of light flashed in his golden pupils, then quickly returned to stillness.

He lowered his eyes, looking at the newly formed purple spirit ring, sensing the information emanating from it, his gaze flickering slightly.

"So, is the soul skill to your liking?"

"I'm standing here," Electrox asked.

Jiang Ci'an nodded, his golden eyes brightening slightly.

"Very good."
