My beast can't be a demon.

Chapter 124: Soul of the Divine Beast (Additional Chapter 33)

Leishan Secret Realm, before the cave.

Zhou Lu looked at Ouyang Xun, who was carefully exploring with an instrument in front of him, with a dead fish-eye expression.

He turned his head silently and looked at Jiang Shuqi who was standing beside him with an embarrassed look on her face.

Jiang Shuqi adjusted her glasses with trembling hands and said, "Teacher... it's like this..."

Ouyang Xun's drive to act is almost over the top.

He said he wanted to come to Leishan Secret Realm and called his students early the next morning.

After arranging for the other party to look after the ghost, he took Zhou Lu and Jiang Shuqi to the Leishan Secret Realm.

Of course, Ouyang Xun was not an old scholar who was ignorant of the ways of the world.

The three fairy coins could still calm Zhou Lu's confused mood.

Fireworks was quite happy.

It is not the kind of person who can sit idle.

Under Zhou Lu's guidance, the group entered the cave smoothly.

"I say...why do I have to come here too?" An Xin followed behind Zhou Lu and complained softly.

"I spent credits." Zhou Lu said confidently.

An Xin's mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn't find any reason to refute.

After all, among the three people mentioned above, Ouyang Xun and Jiang Shuqi applied for the scientific research channel, while Zhou Lu took the student channel.

If you use the student channel and pay for credits, you will need a security guard.

Ouyang Xun seems to be quite influential in academia.

As an eyewitness at that time, An Xin was quickly assigned to their team.

In the cave's tunnel, the air was still cold and damp.

Following the traces of branches that Hua Huo had buried at that time, the group soon arrived at the cave where the White-Feathered Ghost Dragon lived.

The ruins of the stone wall that collapsed the last time Hanabi came were still there, showing everyone the evil deeds that Hanabi had done.

The moment he entered the cave, Ouyang Xun's instruments began to sound violent alarms.

"Sure enough!" he shouted excitedly.

"So, what did you discover, teacher?" Jiang Shuqi followed behind Ouyang Xun and asked softly.

"There is definitely a dead place underneath." Ouyang Xun said excitedly, "We have to dig deeper, maybe we can find something. I guess it should be the corpse of some powerful spiritual beast."

"Will we dig up something dangerous?" Zhou Lu always felt eerie.

Hua Huo looked curiously at the pet summoned by Ouyang Xun.

Digging pangolin.

"It doesn't matter." Ouyang Xun summoned another spirit pet.

A ghost in a white dress appeared in front of everyone.

The third-tier spiritual pet, the Phantom Bride.

Although she is called the bride, she actually has nothing to do with a human being. She doesn't look like a human at all.

But, not looking like a human doesn’t mean she’s not beautiful.

Just like fireworks are also very cute.

The ghost bride floats behind Ouyang Xun.

The digging pangolin cleared out all the fallen stones in the cave and stabilized the cave in the process.

After doing all this, it began to dig diligently underground from the circle drawn by its owner.

It is indeed a congenital civil engineering saint body that is a professional hole digger. In just a short while, it drilled down more than ten meters.

As the burrowing pangolin dug, an unprecedented powerful pressure suddenly descended.

Zhou Lu felt as if his heart was hit hard, and the instinctive fear of a living being rose from his heart.

Hua Huo was so scared that she hugged Zhou Lu's legs.

However, its curiosity overcame its fear, and it looked towards the cave entrance with some curiosity.

Jiang Shuqi also felt this pressure.

This is……

Jiang Shuqi was shocked: "Teacher, this is..."

Ouyang Xun also looked surprised at this moment.

He speculated that there must be the remains of some powerful spiritual beast underneath.

But he didn't expect it to be so powerful.

Ouyang Xun squatted down and rubbed the Jedi Pangolin that jumped out. It just couldn't stand the pressure and ran away like it was escaping.

The next second, a ray of light burst out from the hole dug by the pangolin.

As the light faded, a cloud of purple mist appeared before everyone's eyes.

"Child... find my child..."

The purple mist whispered.

"What is this?" Zhou Lu touched his chest.

The powerful pressure made his heart beat wildly.

"The soul of the divine beast." Jiang Shuqi looked deeply at the purple mist in front of her.

The purple mist gradually condensed into the shape of a bird.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the soul of the Ghost Car Thunderbird."

The soul of a mythical beast?

Ghost car Thunderbird? !

If Zhou Lu remembered correctly, there was indeed a ghost chariot thunder bird in history.

It is not a human's spiritual pet, but the immortals slaughtered its own kind and children at will, so this divine beast joined the beastmaster's resistance.

In the ambush battle in the Leishan Secret Realm, it fought fiercely with three Mahayana Immortals, but was ultimately defeated and killed.

The war was so tragic that the Beast Tamer resistance was completely wiped out, and all traces of the Ghost Chariot Thunder Bird disappeared completely in history.

Over the past thousand years, many human explorers have come to the secret realm of Leishan just to look for the remains of this mythical beast.

I didn't expect to find it here today.

"Teacher, I'm sorry." Jiang Shuqi showed her nursing team ID. "The Ghost Car Thunderbird died here fighting for humanity. I have to seal off the scene now to prevent others from insulting the body of the martyr."

If it was the corpse of an ordinary divine beast, Jiang Shuqi would not care.

Aren’t the reasons why many mythical beast families sponsor archaeologists just to dig up the bones of ancient mythical beasts and obtain materials for the evolution of their own quasi-gods?

But the Ghost Rider Thunderbird is different.

It died for humans, and even if it was not a human's spiritual pet, the nursing team would not allow the animal tamer to insult its corpse and take away materials.

Ouyang Xun picked up the pangolin and nodded, "I understand your job. We will leave after the rest of the nursing team arrives and takes over the scene."

"Besides, I have found what I want."

As he spoke, Ouyang Xun took out a few stones from the pangolin's body.

The stone emits a blue glow.

This is the Ghost Stone.

"We dug up a lot this time." Ouyang Xun took out some and handed it to Zhou Lu, "Consider it as the remaining balance."

Zhou Lu was overjoyed and quickly took it: "Thank you."

As he said that, he handed it to Hanabi who was standing beside him.

As [Lilliput] was activated, Hanabi shrunk the ghost stone and stuffed it into the snail shell.

It was at this time that Zhou Lu discovered that there seemed to be a mark on the back of his hand.

"what is this?"

Looking around, he discovered that everyone present had the same thunder mark on their hands.

After the purple mist dissipated, the lightning mark finally disappeared.

"The last wish of the spirit of the divine beast." Ouyang Xun said, "As long as you can fulfill its last wish, you will get some benefits."

"Benefits?" Zhou Lu touched the back of his hand, "What benefits?"

"For example, let your pet gain new attributes." Ouyang Xun asked.

Zhou Lu closed his eyes, and the last wish of the Ghost Chariot Thunder Bird appeared in his mind.

Found the descendants of Ghost Rider Thunderbird?

Zhou Lu was slightly stunned.

He subconsciously thought that this task was simple, but he immediately remembered that the Ghost Car Bird was on the critically endangered list along with the Thunder Patterned Buddha Tree.

This is not easy to find...

An Xin had the same idea: "The ghost car bird is almost extinct, right? Where can we find its descendants?"

Benben behind Hanabi seemed to have thought of something. He shook Hanabi's tail, and after Hanabi looked at him, he spoke:

[That guy hatched a lot of strange birds, one of them seems to be the Ghost Car Bird...]
The "guy" that Benben was referring to was the Great Thunderbird.
