Chapter 32: Critical Strike Effect, Reunited with Qian Daoliu
As for the effect of the Critical Strike, the lower limit is a 100% increase in the attack power of the Atlas Spear, and the upper limit is a 300% increase.
This level of improvement depends entirely on one's own luck; if luck is poor, there is only a 100% Critical Strike effect, but if luck is good, there might be a 300% Critical Strike effect.
Just now, when Yun Yuan used his Second soul skill, the Critical Strike effect triggered was about 200%, neither particularly unlucky nor exceptionally lucky.
Yun Yuan was quite satisfied with his Second soul skill; after all, it was very strong and could be stacked with his First Soul Skill, which perfectly suited his wishes.
After testing his Soul Ring skills and Soul Bone skills, Yun Yuan retracted his Martial Soul, the Atlas Spear, and began to leave the Star Dou Great Forest to return to the Spirit Hall.
As Yun Yuan walked through the forest, his observations of his surroundings were no longer as cautious as before.
After obtaining his second Soul Ring and possessing a second External Soul Bone, his strength had increased significantly, giving Yun Yuan enough confidence to face any danger in the outer perimeter.
As time passed, Yun Yuan walked for several hours in this massive forest, but the journey back to the Spirit Hall was still very long.
Just as Yun Yuan thought he wouldn't encounter any powerful Soul Beasts...
Not far from his position, a woman dressed in green was looking in Yun Yuan's direction.
"This boy's age is about the same as what Di Tian described, and he exudes a powerful Spear Momentum; he must be the grand-disciple of that Light Spirit Master."
Thinking this, the woman in green flashed and appeared directly behind Yun Yuan, wanting to confirm his identity.
The moment the woman in green appeared behind Yun Yuan, he didn't sense any of her presence at all.
But Yun Yuan's years of intuition told him there was a great terror behind him.
"Who exactly is it?! It couldn't be that Red King coming for me, right?"
Yun Yuan guessed inwardly, his breathing becoming a bit heavy; if that were the case, his life would truly end here.
The next moment, a crisp, melodious, and gentle female voice rang out.
"Child, did you just escape from a golden Soul Beast?"
Hearing the gentle voice from behind, Yun Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, his heart no longer as tense.
Hearing the question from the owner of the female voice, Yun Yuan began to think; in the Star Dou Great Forest, a gentle woman, a golden Soul Beast—connecting everything, Yun Yuan roughly had an answer in his heart.
Could this be the Emerald Swan from the Star Dou Great Forest, whose cultivation is over five hundred thousand years?
Thinking this, Yun Yuan turned his head, and sure enough, a stunningly beautiful woman in a green dress met his eyes.
Knowing that this woman in green was likely Bi Ji, Yun Yuan's heart gradually relaxed.
Although Bi Ji was a Ferocious Beast with powerful cultivation, she disliked slaughter and had a relatively peaceful and gentle personality; such a Soul Beast probably wouldn't attack a weak young boy like him.
"You are...?"
Looking at Bi Ji, Yun Yuan appropriately showed some confusion in his eyes, wanting to know her purpose for coming here.
"My name is Bi Ji, a member of the Star Dou Great Forest. I have come to take you back to meet your elder, a very powerful Light Spirit Master."
Looking at Yun Yuan, Bi Ji didn't hide anything and directly mentioned Qian Daoliu's existence.
That Light Spirit Master was the representative of the Deity on the Douluo Continent, and they in the Star Dou Great Forest did not want to start a conflict; therefore, to exchange for the Auspicious Beast, they had to find Yun Yuan.
Hearing this, after thinking for a moment, Yun Yuan's eyes brightened; he had already guessed who the Light Spirit Master Bi Ji spoke of was.
Who else could it be besides his grand-master?
It seemed that his teacher, Qian Xunji, had already returned to the Spirit Hall; otherwise, Qian Daoliu wouldn't have appeared in the Star Dou Great Forest so quickly.
However, what puzzled Yun Yuan was how Qian Daoliu had managed to get Ferocious Beasts like Bi Ji from the Star Dou Great Forest to help find him.
Suddenly, the image of a golden Soul Beast flashed through his mind; the only way to get the Ferocious Beasts to act must be the safety of that Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
In other words, that Three-Eyed Golden Lion must be in the hands of his grand-master, Qian Daoliu.
After figuring it out, Yun Yuan looked at Bi Ji eagerly and said:
"That is my grand-master you're talking about. I'll go with you to find him now."
Seeing Yun Yuan admit it, the heavy stone in Bi Ji's heart finally fell; it seemed she had indeed found the right person, and the Auspicious Beast could be safely exchanged back.
Immediately after, Bi Ji picked up Yun Yuan and rushed directly toward Qian Daoliu's direction. With her powerful cultivation, it didn't take long for her to cross over a hundred miles and arrive at the area where Qian Daoliu was.
At this time, Qian Daoliu, who was searching for Yun Yuan with the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, felt a powerful aura approaching from not far away and turned his gaze toward Bi Ji.
"Is that... Xiao Yuan?!"
Seeing that the Soul Beast of the Star Dou Great Forest had found Yun Yuan, Qian Daoliu took the Three-Eyed Golden Lion beside him and, with a flash, appeared in front of Bi Ji and Yun Yuan.
"Xiao Yuan, Grand-master has come to pick you up."
Arriving before Yun Yuan, Qian Daoliu spoke first to comfort him; his grand-disciple had just been left in the Star Dou Great Forest and must have been very scared and worried.
But now that he, Qian Daoliu, had arrived, Yun Yuan could go home safely.
"Human, I have brought your grand-disciple to you. Shouldn't the Auspicious Beast beside you be returned to us?"
Before Yun Yuan could say anything to Qian Daoliu, Bi Ji spoke first, her eyes fixed on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion beside Qian Daoliu.
The Auspicious Beast was of vital importance to the Star Dou Great Forest and could not suffer the slightest loss; moreover, Bi Ji had long since considered the Three-Eyed Golden Lion as her own daughter.
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu waved his hand, and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion returned to Bi Ji's side. The light Soul Power enveloping the Three-Eyed Golden Lion dissipated and gradually flowed toward Yun Yuan beside Bi Ji.
Seeing this, Bi Ji did not stop Qian Daoliu, and Yun Yuan returned to Qian Daoliu's side smoothly.
After completing this, Qian Daoliu turned his gaze toward Bi Ji and said indifferently:
"I previously made an agreement with that black dragon, Di Tian, that your Star Dou Great Forest would also compensate my Spirit Hall with an additional hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone. Do not break your promise."
"I, Qian Daoliu, have kept my word and released your Star Dou Great Forest's Auspicious Beast. Now, it is time for you to fulfill the other half of the agreement."
Hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Bi Ji nodded and then promised him.
"Don't worry, I will have Di Tian bring the hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone to you later. Just wait here."
It was just a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone; to them, it wasn't some precious treasure. After all, they were all Soul Beasts, and Soul Bones were just collectibles to them, of little use.
"Di Tian... so that black dragon is named Di Tian."
Qian Daoliu repeated Di Tian's name in his mind several times; among those he could consider opponents, besides Tang Chen, there was now Di Tian.
