Chapter 56: Long Nights and Many Dreams
Seeing that the master and the others rushed out of the forest in a rather embarrassed manner, the soul masters and soldiers in the patrol team all suddenly either released their martial spirits or pulled out their weapons, and stood on guard all around, entering a state of combat readiness.
One of the leading Soul Hall soul masters took the lead in asking everyone:
"Stop, have you been attacked by soul beasts?"
This person has four staggered sword badges on his chest, showing his cultivation of the Three-Ring Soul Venerable.
"I encountered a thousand-year-old soul beast and attacked ...... It's not a good thing, there was a little accident, and the soul beast didn't catch up, so you don't have to be so nervous. ”
The master staggered a few steps forward, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
"I see."
Hearing this, the Soul Venerable of the Martial Spirit Hall suddenly felt a lot more relieved nervously.
Before he could continue, the master spoke again:
"The soul beast we encountered belongs to the bear class, with black and white hair, huge size, but lovely appearance, may I ask what kind of soul beast it is?"
"That soul beast." The Soul of the Martial Soul Hall nodded knowingly, "It was captured by our Soul Hunting Team from the Star Dou Great Forest, and it was just sent to the Soul Hunting Forest not long ago, but I didn't expect to be met by you by chance."
However, it is also the first time that our Martial Spirit Hall has discovered this kind of soul beast, and we know very little about it, so we only gave it a temporary code name of 'Black and White Bear', and the specific name remains to be discussed. ”
"Are you from the Star Dou Great Forest, as I expected......"
The Master was disappointed that he had not been able to obtain more information.
After the Soul Venerable of the Martial Spirit Hall gave everyone a few words, he quickly left with the patrol.
As soon as the patrol left, the black-haired boy suddenly approached the master and whispered:
"Teacher, I know what that soul beast is called."
"Oh? Little San, you know? The master was a little surprised.
"Teacher, do you remember the ancient book I once told you, in addition to the production methods of those hidden weapons and poisons, there are also many rare beasts and treasures of heaven and earth, among which there is a description of a similar soul beast, it is called the Iron Eating Beast, and it also has other names such as Bai Zhen and Bamboo Bear......"
The black-haired boy told some of the things he knew in his previous life, such as the origin of the name, life habits, and so on.
"No wonder this soul beast was not provoked by Luo Sanpao, and came to chase us, it turned out to be a docile species, and there are so many magical places, it is completely different from other bear soul beasts, it is really a subversive discovery!"
The master couldn't help but exclaim.
He didn't have the slightest doubt about what the black-haired boy said, he had long known that his disciple possessed a lot of unusual knowledge and abilities, and according to him, those things came from a mysterious ancient book.
Since the so-called ancient book records such a magical thing as a secret weapon, the other contents in it must not be untargeted.
"Master, don't study it at this juncture, hurry up and find a place to recuperate and recover your soul power."
Director Su glanced at the master's buttocks and urged with a smile.
After all, this is the best friend of the dean of their college, in case there are three long and two short things on this trip, and there is a root cause that cannot be raised, it is not easy for him to take this responsibility.
"Then let's find a suitable area near the road to repair overnight, it just so happens that it is not early, and Wang Sheng's soul ring can only be planned tomorrow."
The master smiled bitterly.
He seems to have some trouble with this soul hunting forest, and every time he comes, he will encounter accidents.
When he helped his disciple hunt the first soul ring, he was negligent, he was hit by the snake venom of the mandala snake, and was almost poisoned directly, when hunting the second soul ring for his disciple, although he was protected by a fellow of the Four-Ring Soul Sect, he was almost sucked dry by the parasitic seed of the ghost vine and died.
Not to mention this time, even the martial soul was almost devoured by a thousand-year-old iron-eating beast......
……
At this time, Ye Xi, who almost hit the master hard, was about to enjoy another meal.
"It's comfortable!"
Ye Xi's big bear paw kept stroking the silky hair of the colorful cat, and his whole body was full of pleasure.
Such a soul beast that is close to two meters and resembles a tiger and leopard will naturally not be well-behaved and cute, but in the comparison of Ye Xi's huge body, it looks like a domestic cat.
However, the coolness of petting the cat is not enough to satisfy him.
"This colorful cat has suffered from heat stroke, and is still unconscious, so it can't go on like this, so let's eat it."
Ye Xi touched it, and then grinned and showed his white teeth......
After continuing this hundred-year-old soul beast, Ye Xi hunted and killed an Azure Python that had been cultivated for more than five hundred years before it got dark, devouring its flesh and blood.
After he came to the Soul Hunting Forest, he still enjoyed it quite a bit, and now he has eaten four hundred-year-old soul beasts in a row.
This made his cultivation increase by about a hundred years, from the thousand-hundred-year soul beast directly promoted to the thousand-year-old soul beast to nearly fourteen hundred years!
It seems that the speed of upgrading is not bad, but in fact, this speed is not as fast as he did a thousand years ago.
In the past, such four hundred-year-old soul beasts were enough to improve his cultivation for nearly two hundred years, but now they only have more than half of their effects.
As for those weak ten-year soul beasts, the improvement of his strength was very little at all.
In fact, this is not necessarily a bad thing, it means that the soul power of his body is more condensed and refined.
However, Ye Xi, who felt that his strength was weak and was eager to improve himself, felt extremely dissatisfied with such a speed.
If it weren't for his lack of strength, he wouldn't have been chased to the edge of the mixed zone by the Skylark Soul Sect in the first place, nor would he have been accidentally caught in this soul hunting forest by the Martial Spirit Palace, and he wouldn't have been afraid of a Titled Douluo and didn't dare to do anything to the humans he had seen before.
In the world of soul beasts, it is far from enough to be stronger than the same level!
"I can't stay in the barren and broken place of the Soul Hunting Forest, thousand-year-old soul beasts are so rare, and there is not even a shadow of heaven and earth treasures, no, I must return to Star Dou as soon as possible!"
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Ye Xi stopped predating and quickly ran towards the area where the steel fence he had previously fancied......
……
Late at night, Soul Hunting Forest,
Today is the new moon, and in the dark night sky there is only a white crescent moon as thin as a hair, and the faint moonlight that swayes faintly cannot shine the slightest shadow of the trees in the dense forest.
The weather was hot and windless, and patches of flocculent black and gray clouds were stranded and floating in the air, obscuring most of the remaining starlight.
This makes tonight's Soul Hunting Forest look extraordinarily dark, it can be said that you can't see your fingers, as if you have fallen into a cloud of dark ink that cannot be dissolved, and the strange howls that echo one after another and the ghostly figures that flash from time to time cannot break the solemnity of this dark night, but make it more terrifying.
But such an environment is the most in line with Ye Xi's expectations.
At this time, he had roughly figured out the situation of night patrols in this area, but he no longer wanted to wait until tomorrow night to delay the action as originally planned.
His cultivation had obviously improved, and that was not well known.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he plans to leave tonight!
"Rushing ......"
Listening to the footsteps of the patrol team go away again until they completely disappeared, Ye Xi realized that his opportunity had come!
