First Thousand-Year Spirit Ring
The swamp region of Star Dou Forest shook violently.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Ancient trees continuously collapsed as the enraged Blue Vine Serpent rampaged wildly.
Poison mist spread throughout the battlefield.
Meanwhile—
An endless sea of Blue Silver Grass covered the surrounding area.
Two different plant forces continuously clashed against each other.
At this moment—
Lin Yuan calmly stood atop a massive tree branch.
His black hair danced lightly beneath the night wind.
Blue-golden light flickered faintly within his pupils.
The Blue Vine Serpent roared furiously below.
It clearly sensed something wrong now.
The surrounding plants—
Were beginning to reject it.
That faint emperor aura continuously suppressed its instincts.
Although Lin Yuan’s current Blue Silver Emperor remained weak—
Bloodline hierarchy still existed.
Especially among plant-type spirit beasts.
At that moment—
The serpent suddenly opened its mouth.
Whoosh!
Several poisonous blue vines instantly shot toward Lin Yuan like spears.
Fast.
Sharp.
Deadly.
Lin Yuan’s expression remained calm.
Blue Silver Grass instantly rose before him.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The poisonous vines pierced through several layers of grass defense before finally slowing.
Meanwhile—
Silver-blue sword light flashed suddenly.
Shing!
The incoming vines split apart instantly.
Lin Yuan’s figure directly descended from above.
Star Trace.
A silver-blue streak crossed the battlefield like falling starlight.
The Blue Vine Serpent roared furiously while twisting its massive body.
Unfortunately—
Its movement speed had already become heavily restricted by surrounding Blue Silver Grass.
Especially within swamp terrain.
The next moment—
Lin Yuan’s sword directly pierced toward the previous wound near its neck.
Shing!
Blood splattered violently.
The serpent let out painful howl instantly.
Its scales finally shattered completely.
Yet—
At the same time—
Its enormous tail slammed toward Lin Yuan viciously.
Boom!
Lin Yuan barely crossed sword defensively before impact arrived.
The terrifying force instantly sent him flying backward.
Several giant trees exploded apart consecutively.
Finally—
Lin Yuan forcefully stabilized himself atop ground while sliding dozens of meters.
His arms felt slightly numb.
The Blue Vine Serpent might be heavily suppressed—
But its raw power still remained terrifying.

That strike alone might have broken bones already.
Lin Yuan slowly exhaled.
Then smiled faintly.
Good.
This was real battle.
Not academy child fights.
The next moment—
His spirit power circulated wildly.
Countless Blue Silver Grass suddenly erupted upward once more.
This time—
The vines directly wrapped around the serpent’s wounded neck area tightly.
Restricting its movements completely.
The Blue Vine Serpent roared furiously while struggling.
But every second—
More surrounding plants answered Blue Silver Emperor’s call.
At this moment—
Lin Yuan finally displayed the true terror of control-type plant martial souls inside forest environments.
The battlefield itself became his ally.
The serpent desperately attempted escape.
Unfortunately—
Its vitality continuously drained through the surrounding Blue Silver Grass.
Its struggles gradually weakened.
Then—
Lin Yuan moved again.
Silver-blue starlight illuminated darkness.
The Starry Sky Sword emitted cold sharp aura beneath moonlight.
Lin Yuan’s eyes became incomparably calm.
One strike.
This battle would end with one strike.
The next second—
He vanished instantly.
Star Trace.
The sword light flashed across darkness faster than before.
Like falling stars descending from heaven.
Shing!
Everything became quiet.
Lin Yuan silently appeared behind the Blue Vine Serpent.
Sword lowered calmly.
Several seconds later—
A deep glowing line slowly appeared across the serpent’s neck.
Then—
Boom.
The massive head separated completely from its body.
Blood sprayed across swamp waters.
The thousand-year spirit beast collapsed heavily onto the ground.
Silence returned once more.
Only the cold night wind continued blowing softly.
Lin Yuan quietly stood there breathing slightly heavier.
Several wounds appeared across his clothes already.
Especially his arms.
The previous tail strike still caused internal soreness.
Yet—
His eyes remained bright.
Excitement quietly surged within him.
He won.
A level 10 spirit scholar had successfully hunted a thousand-year spirit beast alone.
If this news spread—
The entire spirit master world would become shocked.
At that moment—
A deep purple spirit ring slowly rose from the Blue Vine Serpent corpse.
Purple.
Thousand-year spirit ring.
The surrounding atmosphere instantly became oppressive.
Lin Yuan quietly looked toward the floating ring.
Then slowly sat cross-legged beside it. This chapter was copied from g.com without permission.
His expression gradually became serious.
The true danger…
Was only beginning now.
Absorbing a thousand-year first spirit ring.
Even genius spirit masters would call this madness.
One mistake:
meridians shattered spirit sea collapse death Yet—
Lin Yuan’s eyes remained steady throughout.
His body had already been tempered repeatedly through:
Azure Emperor Body Art whale glue refinement natural vitality absorption Most importantly—
His Blue Silver Emperor martial soul possessed terrifying life affinity.
Lin Yuan slowly raised one hand.
Blue-golden Blue Silver Emperor quietly emerged.
The faint emperor aura resonated with the thousand-year spirit ring immediately.
Then—
Without hesitation—
Lin Yuan pulled the purple ring toward himself.
Boom.
The moment the spirit ring entered his body—
An incomparably violent energy instantly exploded throughout every meridian.
Pain.
Extreme pain.
Like countless blades tearing through flesh and bones simultaneously.
Lin Yuan’s body trembled violently.
Blood slowly flowed from corner of his mouth.
Yet—
His eyes remained ice-cold throughout.
Azure Emperor Body Art circulated wildly.
Countless surrounding plant energies surged toward him desperately.
The Blue Silver Emperor martial soul emitted dazzling blue-golden radiance.
The thousand-year spirit ring continuously resisted violently.
Its remaining spirit beast will attempted crushing his consciousness.
At that moment—
A massive Blue Vine Serpent phantom suddenly appeared within Lin Yuan’s spiritual sea roaring furiously.
However—
Before it could attack—
An ancient blue-golden emperor aura suddenly descended silently.
Boom.
The serpent phantom instantly froze in terror.
Bloodline suppression.
Absolute suppression.
The next second—
The phantom directly shattered apart completely.
Meanwhile outside—
The violent spirit ring energy gradually began stabilizing.
Purple light continuously circulated around Lin Yuan’s body.
Hours slowly passed.
Until finally—
As dawn’s first sunlight appeared beyond forest horizon—
Lin Yuan’s eyes suddenly opened.
Boom.
A powerful spirit power wave erupted outward instantly.
Purple spirit ring slowly rose beneath him.
Deep purple.
Ancient.
Oppressive.
First spirit ring.
One thousand years.
