Jiang Li's gaze fixed on the golden summoning card. He exerted a slight force with his right hand, and a "bang" sounded. Though the sound was quiet, it was resounding in the silent room.
The summoning card shattered instantly, dissolving into tiny specks of golden light that drifted into the air. Each speck of light seemed to hold a mysterious world.
Jiang Li stared intently ahead, not daring to blink, afraid to miss a single detail.
He wanted to see which powerful being this golden summoning card would summon.
As the golden light faded, like a mist gradually lifting, a green willow leaf suddenly appeared before him.
The leaf hovered quietly in mid-air, emitting an ancient and mysterious aura, as if emanating from the depths of distant time and space.
"Hmm?"
"System, what's going on? Isn't this a summoning character? Why did a willow leaf suddenly appear?"
Jiang Li asked the system, his face filled with confusion as he stared at the floating willow leaf.
Countless possibilities flashed through his mind.
Was there something wrong with the summoning card?
Or was there a system malfunction?
[Host, simply infuse your soul power into the willow leaves, and you will find out.]
The system's cold voice echoed clearly in Jiang Li's mind.
Although filled with doubt, Jiang Li decided to follow the system's instructions.
He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and slowly raised his right hand. Like a wisp of silk thread, a strand of soul power flowed from his fingertips into the willow leaves.
"Boom!"
In an instant, a breathtakingly powerful aura erupted from the willow leaves, like a long-dormant volcano suddenly erupting.
"Not good!"
The moment Jiang Li felt this overwhelming aura, his expression changed suddenly, and his pupils constricted.
Without time to think, he immediately activated his invincible domain, completely blocking the aura within a certain space.
He knew that if this aura leaked out, with the Star Auction Pavilion's current defenses, the entire building would be reduced to rubble, and everything would be razed to the ground.
The willow leaves in front of him seemed to be infused with vitality,
suddenly releasing a mysterious energy wave.
The wave spread outward like ripples, transforming space into a distorted mirror wherever it passed, shimmering with layers of strange light.
At that moment, a vision appeared ahead: a tall, upright willow tree, standing in the void.
Its branches, slender as jade, shimmered with a gentle luster in the illusory light. Thousands of twigs drooped gently, each crystal clear, gleaming with a soft, precious glow, as if flowing with celestial charm.
"Could this be the Willow God from the Perfect World?"
Jiang Li observed the scene before him, an absurd thought forming in his mind.
The moment the thought arose, even he himself found it somewhat unbelievable.
But soon, the scene ahead seemed to confirm his suspicion, compelling him to believe this seemingly absurd idea.
The next moment, the willow branches trembled violently, vanishing in the midst of light and shadow. The willow leaves ahead also vanished like a phantom, vanishing without a trace.
At that moment, a woman in a long green dress suddenly appeared before Jiang Li.
Her long black hair fluttered in the wind, each strand seemingly imbued with endless mysteries, dancing in wondrous patterns through the air. A
powerful aura, like the might of heaven and earth, emanated from her body, like surging ocean waves, spreading outward in waves.
"Such a powerful aura!"
When Jiang Li sensed this aura, he felt as if a huge rock was pressing down on his chest, making breathing extremely difficult.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, activating his Invincible Domain to resist the overwhelming pressure.
Jiang Li was filled with amazement. The power of this divine summoning card was beyond imagination, capable of summoning even a peerless powerhouse like Willow God.
In the Perfect World, the Willow God was once a top-tier Immortal King. With her extraordinary strength and peerless grace, she forged a formidable reputation in a world teeming with powerful individuals.
Later, she attained the power of a quasi-Immortal Emperor. With a wave of her willow branches, she could slay evil with unparalleled force, instantly transforming the winds and clouds, darkening the sun and moon.
Over the course of countless ages, she witnessed countless rises and falls, yet remained unshaken, becoming an immortal legend within the Perfect World.
"Who are you? Where is this place?"
The Willow God's voice softly parted, like a mountain spring, clear and melodious, yet tinged with an innate majesty.
She realized she had arrived in this unfamiliar world, and with a puzzled look on her face, she surveyed her surroundings, her eyes revealing a quest for the unknown.
Soon, in a single thought, she took in the entire Douluo Continent, her doubts growing ever deeper.
"Such a puny world?"
"Logically, this plane couldn't possibly support a clone of mine. How did you do it?"
The Willow God muttered to himself, her dark brows furrowed slightly. Between those delicate lines, a gleam of boundless wisdom and bewilderment seemed to coalesce.
Her eyes were filled with bewilderment. In her long life, she had never encountered anything so bizarre.
Even though this willow leaf carried a strand of her aura, possessing one billionth of her own strength, it was still too small for such a puny world to contain.
"Strange! I can't even see into your past or future."
The Willow God's gaze fell on Jiang Li, her confusion growing.
After all, in this tiny world, she could see everyone's past and future clearly.
But this person's background seemed shrouded in layers of mystery. No matter how hard the Willow God explored, she could not uncover the truth.
Jiang Li was at a loss for words when he heard the Willow God's words.
He silently groaned. After all, the system was his greatest secret, and he couldn't easily reveal it.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, the Willow God's expression shifted slightly, as if she had sensed something.
A strange glint flashed in her eyes, as if she were sensing some mysterious power.
"Interesting, that figure asked this clone to obey your orders."
"Well, it just so happens I want to explore this new world. It seems this world is completely independent of my original spacetime."
An ambiguous glint flashed across the Willow God's face, but she quickly calmed down, regaining her otherworldly demeanor.
"If anything happens, I'll take action!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the Willow God vanished from her spot, reappearing in a room upstairs.
Jiang Li, who had been struggling with how to respond, felt a wave of relief at the Willow God's words.
It seemed the system was behind all this. Since it could summon a clone of the Willow God to Douluo Continent, it should be able to handle the subsequent troubles.
According to the Willow God, this clone would obey his orders.
The thought of this made Jiang Li unsure what to think.
Even though this was only a clone of the Willow God, the power it unleashed was enough to crush everything.
In the God Realm of Douluo Continent, those powerful beings revered as God Kings, usually high and mighty, commanding endless power and majesty, could be strangled by the Willow God in a single thought, leaving them as fragile as ants.
Jiang Li felt more confident about the future.
Although the system had helped him conceal the existence of the Star Auction Pavilion, no one could guarantee that other abnormalities would not be discovered by the God Realm.
Now that the Star Auction Pavilion had the Willow God, it was like an indestructible fortress, and all crises would no longer exist.
