The sky was gray, there was a lot of snow, and it was extremely cold in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Zhao Xuan reopened the vision sharing, and the divine consciousness chain was connected to the minds of the two.

"Fatty, go get some dry firewood." Zhao Xuan glanced at the two girls and commanded.

"Howler!"

Ma Hongjun got up neatly, with Zhao Xuan's vision to share, he was not worried about any soul beasts attacking at all, and it would depend on Zhao Xuan to hunt the soul ring later, when would he not please at this time?

With a shared vision, Ma Hongjun didn't even need to deliberately look for it, he went straight to the dry firewood found in his field of vision, and after a while, he came back with a large pile of dry firewood, and then set up a fire with a sharp slight.

The raging flames jumped high, the warm light dispelled the cold, and the bodies of the two girls, who were trembling slightly from the cold, calmed down.

Several people gathered around the fire, and the orange light of the fire reflected on their faces.

At this time, Zhao Xuan spoke: "Wait a minute, the fat man's soul ring is easy to find, the fire attribute soul beast should be quite active in winter, but Hermione, have you thought about what to hunt for your soul ring?" ”

Hermione's silver teeth pursed her lips, a little tangled for a moment, and she couldn't figure it out.

Her Soul Wand is interesting, it doesn't have any properties on its own, which makes it lose some of its strengths, but it's also an advantage on the flip side.

Because its innate is blank, it has a high plasticity, and it can attach a soul ring of almost any attribute, and whether it is a beast or a plant, or even the soul ring produced by some special types of soul beasts can be added to it.

Seeing this, Zhao Xuan cautiously proposed: "According to the master's opinion, it is best for you to add a defensive soul ring now, so that you have all the offensive and defensive auxiliary abilities, although you may not have an advantage in the early stage, but it is a good development for you in the future." ”

"Of course, how to choose is your own business, as long as you are sure, I will help you hunt the corresponding soul beast."

The girl's brows furrowed slightly, and the scattered curly blonde hair naturally fell to the side of her face, and the blonde hair obscured her face, making it impossible to see her expression.

Zhao Xuan sighed lightly, he knew Hermione's entanglement, the girl had revealed it to him when she was still in the second stage of training in the Soto Great Fighting Arena, but now he didn't know if the girl's mind had changed.

After a long time, Hermione whispered, "Just do what the master says." ”

"Huh? Are you sure? Zhao Xuan looked at the girl with some surprise.

After making up her mind, the girl's heart seemed to become more and more firm, and she nodded resolutely.

"There's still a long way to go, isn't it?" The corners of Hermione's mouth curled slightly, and she said playfully.

"Yes, it's still a long way to go." Zhao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

"Will you protect me as I grow up?"

After a moment of silence, the girl's eyelids drooped, she took a slight breath, and asked in a somewhat uncalm mood, her tone trembling slightly.

Zhao Xuan was stunned, the scene fell silent in an instant at this moment, the girl lowered her head, and her chest was a little unsettled.

Ma Hongjun on the side looked at his nose and nose, looked sideways at the dim canopy, and his expression was twisted.

What are you two doing? Can you pay attention to the impact?

Hermione waited quietly for the teenager's reply, her head was a little dazed, and her earlobes were fiery and rosy.

How do you ...... yourself? Why do you suddenly say something like that?

When she said this, the girl felt that her heartbeat suddenly jumped up wildly, and while looking forward to it, there was a kind of nervousness, panic, and hesitation that followed closely.

As time goes by, this feeling in the girl's heart becomes more and more intense.

"Good!"

Suddenly, the boy replied simply.

With a simple word, the girl felt that all the tension, panic, and hesitation just now had disappeared at this moment, and the warm sunshine sprinkled in.

On the side, Ma Hongjun, whose neck was a little stiff, suddenly had a feeling of tears streaming down his face.

At this moment, in addition to the cold wind and the cold dog food, I slapped my face.

……

Time passed unconsciously, and the touch in Zhao Xuan's heart just now gradually calmed down, but it did not disappear, it was just deeply rooted in the bottom of his heart.

"Hmm."

A slight humble came and instantly attracted the attention of several people.

Looking in the direction of Zhu Zhuqing, the ghost leopard's soul ring gradually went towards Zhu Zhuqing's head, and on the two yellow soul rings on her head, the dark purple thousand-year-old soul ring settled, and under the perception of divine consciousness, Zhu Zhuqing's soul power instantly broke through the boundary!

She opened her eyes, and there was a strange glow in them.

Immediately, a shallow smile bloomed, as pure as the snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains.

"Shhh

Zhao Xuan and the others were stunned, is this really Zhu Zhuqing? She...... She actually laughed.

"Don't look at it!" Suddenly, a faint voice of resentment came from Zhao Xuan's side, and the girl's brown eyes like glass looked straight at him.

Zhao Xuan laughed dryly, and Ma Hongjun snickered on the side, hehe, look at you feeding me dog food, now you know it's amazing.

Zhu Zhuqing came back to his senses, his earlobes were slightly red, but his face returned to a cold state, his face was as plain as jade, warm and self-clear.

Several people crowded over, and Zhao Xuan asked, "Zhuqing, what is your third soul technique?" ”

Zhu Zhuqing stretched out her hands, and the sharp claws popped out freely, and she said: "The third soul technique I named the Nether Slash, it absorbs the characteristics of the ghost leopard's sharp claws, you see." ”

After speaking, she jumped forward, and her figure flashed in front of everyone's eyes, but Zhao Xuan's divine sense helped Hermione and Ma Hongjun successfully capture Zhu Zhuqing's figure.

I saw her figure jumping across the two ancient trees, and soon reached the top of the canopy, her third spirit ring flashed, and then a knife-like black shadow formed between the two claws, and suddenly slashed out.

A large canopy of trees was cut off and fell like rain, and a hole appeared at the top of the entire impermeable canopy, and snowflakes fell from it.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhao Xuan hurriedly hugged Hermione and flashed to the side, and then Zhu Zhuqing fell from the air and landed dexterously on the falling branches.

The branches all fell, and they were stacked more than two meters high, and the branches that were cut off were not lacking in the thickness of a human waist, but they were all cut off smoothly under Zhu Zhuqing's chopping, and the cutting surface was smooth.

Zhao Xuan smiled with satisfaction: "The power is good." ”

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were also a little joyful, obviously very satisfied with his third soul technique.

"Huh? What about Ma Hongjun? Zhao Xuan suddenly looked around a little strangely.

"Hmm...... I'm in there! From the branches of the trees under Zhu Zhuqing's feet, Ma Hongjun's muffled voice came from the branches.

Zhu Zhuqing blinked, and then hurriedly jumped down from it.

The pile of branches trembled slightly, and then Ma Hongjun came out of it with an embarrassed face, and then panted fiercely.

"Brother Xuan, can't you take me out by the way?" Ma Hongjun said with a resentful face.

Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows and said, "Aren't you okay?" ”

Ma Hongjun was stunned.

……

In the next few days, everyone successfully hunted the third soul ring for Ma Hongjun from a thousand-year-old flame eagle, and Ma Hongjun successfully broke through to the soul venerable, and obtained the third soul skill - Phoenix Tianxiang.

"That way, there's only Hermione's soul ring." After Ma Hongjun finished absorbing the soul ring, Zhao Xuan said.

If you want to obtain a defensive soul skill, then it is more likely to be obtained from a thick and heavy soul beast.

But now that it's winter, the thick and heavy soul beasts are hibernating, which is a bit difficult.
