As soon as the Dream Illusion Flower Demon died, its pollen and fragrance completely lost their effect, and the Spirit Beasts that had been in a coma gradually woke up according to their strength.
However, they were still half-lidded, seemingly half-asleep and half-awake, and appeared to have a lingering sense of enjoyment, which showed how captivating the Dream Illusion Flower Demon's illusion was.
Dugu Bo stomped his foot, and a fierce aura erupted, causing these Spirit Beasts to completely awaken, letting out various roars that seemed to be threats, before they turned and fled.
Facing a Titled Douluo, a powerful existence no different from a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, they dared not linger.
Soon, they scattered like birds and beasts, and the area became completely empty.
Dugu Bo glanced at Wang Li, sighed, and then said:
"You actually succeeded. Hunting a Spirit Beast that is almost 30,000 years old by yourself, your strength is already comparable to a Spirit Emperor, only slightly inferior to a Spirit Saint using their Martial Soul True Body. Xiao Li, do you really want to absorb this spirit ring? The risks involved are not something that can be explained in a few words!"
At this moment, Wang Li's face had begun to quickly de-swell. Hearing this, he confidently said:
"Grandpa, just like I said, if I can hunt it, I can absorb it. Let me just recuperate a bit and return to my best state!"
Wang Li fully unleashed his Domain, covering an area of several hundred, even a thousand meters. All the Blue Silver Grass became his loyal supporters, contributing their strength to accelerate his recovery.
He was enveloped in a faint blue, visible airflow that, with each breath he took, entered his body, replenishing his losses.
After a short while, combining his two Spirit talents, Wang Li had basically recovered to his peak. He moved his body slightly, then turned to Dugu Bo and said:
"Grandpa, I'll start absorbing the spirit ring now. It might take some time. I'll leave the protection to you, Grandpa."
Dugu Bo was not a indecisive person after all. Seeing Wang Li's persistence, he no longer tried to dissuade him, but instead said:
"Of course, I won't let you be disturbed, but during the process of absorbing the spirit ring, I can't help you. You can only rely on yourself."
Wang Li nodded, said no more, and walked over to the spirit ring, sat down cross-legged, and began to absorb it.
The incredibly deep black spirit ring, summoned, slowly floated to Wang Li's side, enveloped his Spirit, and then directly merged into it.
In just an instant, an incredibly vast spirit power was released. This was the spirit ring of a Spirit Beast nearly 30,000 years old, a spirit ring that even 60th-level quasi-Spirit Emperors dared not easily attempt.
Even with preparation, Wang Li was still startled. The immensely vast spirit power filled his meridians, packed to the brim, leaving no gaps.
It was uncomfortable, very uncomfortable, but since Wang Li had decided to absorb this nearly 30,000-year-old spirit ring, he had no intention of giving up easily.
He circulated his cultivation technique, activating his spirit power. Inside his body, his skin, muscles, bones, meridians... all glowed with a faint golden light, acting as a bridge to unify all the power in his body, fully restraining this massive spirit power and preventing it from running wild.
Little by little, Wang Li gradually leveraged this vast spirit power, making it circulate within his body and slowly taming it.
With a good start, logically speaking, Wang Li would be able to complete the absorption of this spirit ring with a little more time.
However, spirit rings over 10,000 years old contain the spiritual remnants of the Spirit Beast. As a plant Spirit Beast with spiritual attributes, the Dream Illusion Flower Demon did not directly emerge to assault Wang Li's Spirit.
Instead, it hid within the spirit ring, releasing an unusual force that pulled Wang Li's Spirit into a dream realm. Everything was silent, so much so that even Wang Li did not notice.
He only felt that this spirit ring absorption was surprisingly smooth, and he even accelerated the circulation of his cultivation technique, wanting to complete the absorption of the spirit ring as quickly as possible.
Strangely, the more diligently he did something, the faster he forgot about it. As he diligently circulated his cultivation technique, he gradually forgot about circulating the cultivation technique itself.
He was very confused. He felt like he should be doing something, but he couldn't remember anything at all. His Spirit drifted aimlessly, seemingly without a place to rest.
In reality, when he stopped circulating his cultivation technique, the massive spirit power continuously released from the spirit ring caused damage to his body, and he was unable to stop it.
But at this moment, calls came, from his subjects, transmitted into his Spirit through the Blue Silver Domain.
In an instant, Wang Li's Spirit vibrated violently:
"I underestimated you!"
Immediately, Wang Li grasped the connection to reality and quickly regained control of his body, circulating his cultivation technique, activating his spirit power, and continuing to absorb and refine the spirit ring.
Time passed by minute by minute, and suddenly:
"Roar!"
With a sharp shriek, the Dream Illusion Flower Demon's residual Spirit finally dissipated, and Wang Li completely regained control of his body.
The spirit ring refinement was nearing its end. Without the Dream Illusion Flower Demon's interference, this spirit ring was completely tamed by Wang Li.
At this time, Wang Li sat cross-legged on the ground, with his Blue Silver King Spirit in front of him, unmasked, thick and upright, crystal clear. Two red and blue patterns within it, even when restrained, still emitted a fierce aura.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, the last black spirit ring, like the previous four, circled his body.
Opening his eyes, Wang Li exhaled a breath of stale air. This spirit ring absorption was now completely over. He opened his panel and looked at it:
Host: Wang Li
Spirit: Blue Silver King Lv6 (Evolving)
spirit power: Level 54 (12%) +
Trait: Vitality Lv6 (As the one-in-a-million king of Blue Silver Grass, the Blue Silver King possesses immense vitality, a powerful body, terrifying strength, and rapid recovery ability)
Passive: Tenacity Lv6 (What doesn't kill me makes me stronger. Faced with any abnormal status, as long as it doesn't directly cause death, body constitution will be greatly enhanced after recovery)
Domain: Blue Silver Domain Lv2 (The Blue Silver Emperor's exclusive Domain, a necessary Domain for the Blue Silver King to become the Blue Silver Emperor)
spirit rings: First spirit ring (Equipped) Second spirit ring (Equipped) Third spirit ring (Equipped) Fourth spirit ring (Equipped) Fifth spirit ring (Equipped)
Spirit Bone: None
Combat Experience: 361240
Wang Li thought to himself:
"Level 54 spirit power is the combined result of my over-limit spirit ring absorption and my cultivation during this period. Not bad, my efforts weren't wasted."
"And then, the Blue Silver Domain has reached Level 2. That seems right. My Spirit was also tempered and greatly enhanced during the spirit ring absorption process. This time, I really owe it to the Blue Silver Domain and all the Blue Silver Grass. Without them, my Spirit really might have been exiled, eventually dissipating into the world."
