EBE Chapter 8: Soul Hunting Forest
Chapter 8: Soul Hunting Forest
The next day, Wu Liang and Tang San followed the master out.
"Teacher, where are we going to find the soul beast?"
The three people who came out of the academy were the master and Wu Liang's master and apprentice.
"We are going to the Soul Hunting Forest, four hundred miles northeast of Notting City. That is where the empire keeps soul beasts in captivity. We will definitely find one that suits you." The master wore a smart outfit today, which seemed to add a bit of heroism. But his stiff face still gave people a disharmonious feeling.
"Can we keep soul beasts in captivity? Teacher, please tell us about soul beasts."
The master nodded and said: "Higher soul beasts cannot be kept in captivity, but low-level ones can. Creatures like soul beasts are beasts with soul power. The longer they exist, the stronger they are. Therefore, Generally speaking, we divide soul beasts into five levels according to their age. Ten-year soul beasts, hundred-year soul beasts, thousand-year soul beasts, ten-thousand-year soul beasts and hundred-thousand-year soul beasts. As the name suggests, soul beasts that have practiced for more than ten years , it is a ten-year soul beast, and so on. The distinction of soul rings is the same as that of soul beasts. The soul rings of different years are very easy to identify, and you can tell it from the color. Among them, the soul rings of ten-year soul beasts are white, The soul ring of a hundred-year-old soul beast is yellow, the soul ring of a thousand-year soul beast is purple, the soul ring of a ten-thousand-year soul beast is black, and the soul ring of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast is red. Most of the soul beasts that are kept in captivity by the state for the soul masters to hunt It’s for ten years and a hundred years. It’s rare for a thousand-year soul beast to appear.”
"Teacher, are there any that are millions of years old?"
Wu Liang followed behind and asked with a curl of his lips.
"How is it possible for a million-year-old soul beast? So far, I have never heard of a million-year-old soul beast there. Once a million-year-old soul beast has survived the calamity, it will be the same as our soul masters reaching level 100. That's all It's a god-level one, how can you see it?" the master said seriously.
"Teacher, the longer the spirit beast has been cultivated, the stronger it will be, and the effect of the spirit ring will be better. In what ways does this strength manifest itself?" Tang San asked.
His trademark ugly smile appeared on the master's stiff face, "This is a good question. The difference in the soul rings produced by different levels of soul beasts is mainly in the attributes added to the soul master itself and the ability of his skills. For example, if you look at it from a quantitative perspective, your Blue Silver Grass martial spirit will take the route of controlling the soul master's weapon. Then, if you get a ten-year soul ring with similar attributes, then your Blue Silver Grass will control However, if it is a hundred-year spirit ring, then your control over Blue Silver Grass will increase by one hundred. And so on. Therefore, when possible, all spirit masters will try their best to pursue more powerful ones. Martial spirit."
Tang San said doubtfully: "The more powerful a person is, the better the spirit rings they can get. Those nobles can completely rely on their family strength to hunt for stronger spirit rings for themselves."
There was a gleam of approval in the master's eyes, "Being able to think of this proves that you have thought carefully, but in fact it is not that simple. In other words, the additional requirements for the soul ring are extremely stringent."
"First of all, the soul ring of the soul beast must be obtained from the soul beast that I killed. The soul ring will only exist for a very short time, and if it is not attached to oneself within an hour, it will lose its effect."
"Secondly, soul beasts are extremely proud creatures. No soul beast will allow itself to be captured. If they are seriously injured by the enemy and want to capture them, then the soul beast will choose to commit suicide by self-destructing with its soul power. This is Just put an end to the situation you mentioned, even if you invite someone to hunt the soul beast, if he doesn't kill it in the end, it will be very difficult to get the soul ring."
"Of course, this is not absolute. How can humans compare with intelligent soul beasts? The best way to hunt soul beasts is to form a group and go to the location of the soul beast. The last blow is completed by yourself, so that you can obtain the soul ring. So. , the nobles and some powerful people you mentioned do have certain advantages in hunting soul beasts."
However, just because such a person can easily obtain a soul ring does not mean that he will become more powerful than an ordinary soul master. No one can be sure whether the attributes of the soul beast they encounter are the most suitable for them. The level of the soul beast is of course important, but whether the attributes are consistent is equally critical. No matter how good the soul ring is, it will not have a good effect if it is incompatible with your own martial soul. Instead, it will affect yourself. The most important thing is that each soul master has limits on how to absorb soul rings at different stages. "
"For example, you are only a tenth-level soul warrior now. With your current soul power, you can only absorb the soul ring of a century-old soul beast at most. If you try to absorb the soul ring of a thousand-year-old soul, there will only be one result, and your body cannot Withstand and be destroyed by the power of the soul ring. When absorbing the soul ring, no external force can help, and you can only rely on yourself. Think about it, those who need the help of others to hunt the soul beasts they need have their own strength. How can you be tough? Maybe absorbing a spirit ring that is suitable for you and whose level is within the control range will cause a devastating blow. Tang San, you have to remember that this world is fair. If you want to get something, you must do it. Make corresponding efforts. Opportunism is what mediocre people do. The martial soul theory I studied is just to make the soul master easier in the process of hard work. With equal strength, he becomes more powerful. Of course, Xiao Kangna's situation is extremely special. According to Wu Liang, it is because her physical fitness is extremely high, and the number of soul rings she can withstand will be much longer than others, and the soul rings she absorbs are similar to hers. The soul rings are extremely compatible, so her first soul ring can absorb nearly a thousand years of soul rings. This is very difficult to copy, do you understand?"
Tang San nodded seriously.
He is not a person who is used to opportunism, relying on his own efforts to work towards the goal step by step is the most solid.
The master took Tang San out of the city in no hurry, but walked towards the city instead.
"Teacher, aren't we going to leave the city?"
The master said: "To hunt and kill spirit beasts, we need to prepare something. Moreover, we can't go on foot. Although the distance of four hundred miles is not too far, it is always good to hurry up."
As the sun gradually rises from the east, there are gradually more pedestrians in Notting City. Today was also one of the few days when Tang San didn't use Zi Qidong to cultivate the Purple Demon Eyes.
The preparations the master said were not complicated. He bought three skin bags specially used to hold drinking water. Each skin bag can hold five liters of water. I bought some bacon, bread and fruits. I got two big bags.
Of course, he also bought a lot of radishes, which were prepared for his martial spirit. They were really twenty kilograms. At this time, Wu Liang and Tang San were each holding ten kilograms of radishes and following the master. Ten kilograms of radishes were definitely worth it to Wu Liang. It's nothing, but it would be uncomfortable if he was carried away like this. Fortunately, just like the original work, the master rented a carriage.
When they arrived at the Soul Hunting Forest, Luo Luo let Tang San receive the storage belt given by the master. Wu Liang was not interested in the storage belt at all. The master was a little embarrassed when he took it out. After all, there was only one item. Of course, Wu Liang immediately expressed no interest, so the master also expressed emotion at Wu Liang's generosity.
Before entering the forest, the master's originally somewhat decadent eyes suddenly became brighter. He clasped his hands in front of his chest and then quickly parted them downwards, "Come out, Luo Sanpao."
With a puff, a wave of lavender soul power split from the master's palms, Tang San only felt a wave of soul power emanating from the master, and in front of him, there was already an extra creature.
Yes, that's a creature. It looks like a dog, but its size is more like a pig. The length is over 1.5 meters, and the waist circumference is probably about the same.
He has lavender hair all over his body, two small ears drooping, and a pair of big dark blue eyes blinking, his eyes are very gentle.The fat body twisted, and the fat buttocks swayed from side to side.With four stubby calves, it's hard to imagine how slow it moves.
There is a bulge on the top of the head, round, I don't know what it is.As soon as it appeared, it ran towards the master and rubbed its big head on the master's leg.
Two halos rose from the master's feet, and they walked back and forth on him. The halos were all yellow, obviously they were century-old soul rings.
"Xiao San, don't you want to know what my martial spirit is? This is my martial spirit. You can call it Luo Sanpao, or you can just call him Sanpao."
Luo Sanpao seemed to understand the master's words. He looked at Tang San with his big eyes, and there was a bit of flattery in his eyes.
"Teacher, this is your martial spirit." Tang San said in surprise: "But, isn't the beast spirit manifested in the form of possessing a body? Why?"
Not to mention what kind of creature this Luo Sanpao is, the master's martial spirit obviously exceeds the limit of the beast martial spirit.
Luo Sanpao was obviously dissatisfied, and yelled at Tang San twice.
There was a trace of bitterness on the master's face, "Because, my martial spirit is a mutated martial spirit. Remember the martial soul mutation I told you, Sanpao is it. However, its mutation is obviously in a bad direction. In When it first awakened, my soul power was only half a level. Otherwise, how could it be like this? No matter how hard I try, my soul power will never be able to break through level 30 in this life, and I can only study it theoretically. Martial spirit."
As early as when Tang San heard the rumors about those masters, he knew that the master was a persistent person, and his persistence for martial spirits was like his own for hidden weapons. This is also the reason why Tang San never regretted becoming his master. Perhaps, this is sympathy.
"I'm sorry, teacher, to bring up your sadness."
The master shook his head mockingly, "It's nothing, I've been used to it for a long time. Come on, let me introduce you to Sanpao. The reason why it is called this is because its barking sound is the sound of "la-la", and its attack is also It can only be launched three times. That’s why it’s called the Three Cannons.”
"Three guns, open the way ahead."
