Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 264 Easy Soul Hunting
"Just hunting 100,000-year-old soul beasts?"

Wu Ming sensed something was wrong!
Over the years, human soul masters have hunted at least hundreds of 100,000-year-old soul beasts.

However, it was only during the time when the Body Sect hunted down seven or eight 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest that the beast tide crisis was triggered.

However, when it comes to hunting a 100,000-year-old soul beast alone, whether in the Star Dou Great Forest or the far north, there has never been a situation where the core area had to be sealed off.

Ma Xiaotao also vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

She thought for a moment and said, "How about this, you take Ning Tian to hunt souls first, and I'll go back to the academy to ask about the situation and also pick up the medicinal herbs we need for cultivation!"

"Row!"

Wu Ming nodded and led Ning Tian to the Jingyang Mountains to hunt souls.

Ma Xiaotao immediately flew to Shrek Academy.

The Soul Master was startled when he saw Ma Xiaotao fly away.

Another young Soul Saint!

As for Contra, he didn't even dare to think about it, after all, the two women looked too young!

In his mind, Contra must be at least sixty years old!
……

The Jingyang Mountains are not far from the city where they live.

Even with Ning Tian by her side, Wu Ming arrived successfully in less than a day.

Night falls!
Wu Ming landed on a mountaintop in the Jingyang Mountains with Ning Tian and asked, "Ning Tian, ​​have you decided what kind of amplification soul skill you want for this soul ring?"

"Defense amplification. My first, second, third, and fourth soul skills are speed, control removal, strength, and soul power, respectively. This time, I want a soul skill that can amplify defense," Ning Tian said without hesitation.

"What about the time limit?"

"Anything between 35,000 and 40,000 years old is fine."

Ning Tian said with a smile, "After absorbing 100,000-year whale glue and breaking through to level 50, I also absorbed a 100,000-year spiritual head soul bone. Although the head soul bone's amplification effect on oneself is not as high as that of the torso bone, it is enough to absorb soul rings under 40,000 years!"

"Okay, we'll try to search within the 40,000-year timeframe."

As Wu Ming spoke, he took a step and instantly shot into the sky, activating his Martial Soul Possession.

Yellow, purple, black, and red—the eight spirit rings had just risen when the seventh spirit ring flashed.

Immediately following a loud cry, Wu Ming activated his Martial Soul True Body, transforming into a giant golden crow that soared freely in the sky, illuminating the entire mountain range with extraordinary brightness, just like a sun burning with raging flames.

Even though it was already night and darkness had fallen, the Jingyang Mountains were as bright as day.

The soul beasts that were about to fall asleep were surprised to find themselves walking out of their caves, staring blankly at the 'sun' that had reappeared in the sky.

Wu Ming flapped his wings and soared swiftly above the mountains, his gaze sweeping over one emerging soul beast after another, constantly selecting those that could provide defensive soul skills and were around 40,000 years old.

Suddenly, her gaze sharpened, quickly locking onto a basalt tortoise that had just crawled out of its cave.

It has a huge body, a black gold carapace covered with hard, rock-like protrusions, strong and powerful limbs, a dragon-like head, and the bloodlines of both the dragon race and the Xuanwu (Black Tortoise). It is a top-tier defensive soul beast.

The age limit seems a bit too short!

Wu Ming stared at the Dragon Rock Black Tortoise and made a simple judgment about its age based on its characteristics. It was only about 38,000 years old, which was still a bit short of 40,000 years.

Although it is younger, this kind of soul beast has the bloodline of both the dragon and the black tortoise, making it an absolute top-tier defensive soul beast.

"Ning Tian!"

Wu Ming pondered for a moment, then immediately called out to Ning Tian, ​​"How about the Dragon Rock Black Tortoise? It possesses the bloodlines of both the Dragon Clan and the Black Tortoise, but its lifespan is only 38,000 years."

"can!"

Ning Tian nodded vigorously.

"Okay, that's it!"

Wu Ming stared at the bewildered Longyan Xuanwu Turtle below and rushed over quickly.

When dealing with turtle-type spirit beasts, fire is always the most effective method.

As soon as Wu Ming went down, he immediately began to cleanse the ground with the Golden Crow Sacred Fire, followed by a barrage of bombardments.

That Dragon Rock Black Tortoise was beaten unconscious before it could even put up a decent fight against a high-level Soul Douluo with extreme fire attributes. Even its shell was cracked from being roasted.

"Give!"

Wu Ming picked it up and flew back, dropping it at Ning Tian's feet.

"Sister Wu Ming is so awesome!"

Ning Tian couldn't help but give her a thumbs up.

This was the first time she had ever seen a Soul Hunter so straightforward and brutal, completely unconcerned about being disturbed by other Soul Beasts.

"That is required!"

Wu Ming smiled smugly. With her current strength, she would dare to challenge even a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

A soul beast less than 40,000 years old, held in its hand.

"It's about to die, hurry up and absorb it!"

"it is good!"

Ning Tian took out a soul-guided dagger from his storage soul tool and ended the life of the Dragon Rock Black Tortoise, then began absorbing soul rings.

After Wu Ming and the others absorbed the soul ring, they examined the corpse of the Dragon Rock Black Tortoise.

It's a pity there's no soul bone!

She wasn't too disappointed, after all, the soul bone was formed by chance.

Aside from the fact that a 100,000-year-old soul beast is guaranteed to produce a soul bone, even a 99,000-year-old soul beast may not necessarily produce one, let alone a soul bone from a beast that is less than 40,000 years old. She then looked at Ning Tian, ​​who was absorbing the soul bone.

With a spiritual head bone that is 100,000 years old in his body, the soul vibration in the Dragon Rock Black Tortoise Soul Ring did not have any effect on Ning Tian.

Her expression remained unchanged as she steadily absorbed the soul ring.

Seeing this, Wu Ming felt relieved.

the next day!
At dawn, Ning Tian finished absorbing the soul ring, and his soul power immediately surged.

Level 51... Level 52... Level 53...

A 100,000-year-old spiritual head bone, a 38,000-year-old fifth spirit ring that exceeds the age limit.

The soul power provided to Ning Tian by the two quickly pushed her soul power level to level fifty-seven.

"Tsk!"

As Wu Ming felt the constantly surging soul power fluctuations within her body, she was honestly envious!

Ning Tian still has five 100,000-year soul bones waiting to be absorbed. If this continues, it probably won't be long before Ning Tian's soul power level catches up with hers!
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is still the best. As long as the soul bone skill is suitable, it can absorb soul bones of any attribute at will," Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh.

"Actually, Sister Wu Ming, if you didn't need to ensure the purity of your attributes to inherit the position of the Sun God, you could also absorb soul bones other than those with the fire attribute."

Ning Tian opened his eyes and smiled.

"That's true!"

Wu Ming smiled and said, "Let's go. We've been away for a year and a half, let's go back to the academy and take a look."

"it is good!"

……

Three days later!
Ma Xiaotao was the first to return to Shrek Academy.

The first thing she did upon returning to the college was to find Professor Mu in the freshman dormitory.

Elder Mu appeared to be in good spirits, and even his face, which had aged considerably due to the backlash from the Dragon Pill, had recovered a lot.

Ma Xiaotao felt much more relieved after seeing this.

"Not bad, your cultivation level has increased by two levels, now it's level eighty-seven!"

Old Mu stared at Ma Xiaotao for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

"I had a fortuitous encounter there, and the fire element there was very strong, which was especially suitable for my cultivation."

Ma Xiaotao smiled and then said, "Grandmaster, I heard that you encountered the Limit Douluo of Seagod Island on the high seas and were injured."

"I suffered a minor injury, but I'm fine now!"

Old Mu briefly recounted to her what had happened during this period.

Ma Xiaotao also learned the identities of the two evil soul masters from him.

Messenger of death!
Feng Ling!

"Fengling!"

Ma Xiaotao frowned.

She wasn't surprised that the Grim Reaper might survive, but she was very surprised that Feng Ling had survived!
"Grandmaster, are you sure?"

Ma Xiaotao frowned and said, "I saw Ye Xishui self-destruct with my own eyes. Given the power of her self-destruction, Feng Ling couldn't possibly have survived. Moreover, Ye Yulin and the others went to check on her immediately!"

"It's her!"

Old Mu nodded slightly: "I've met her before; she's your teacher's ex-girlfriend."

"The teacher's ex-girlfriend?"

Ma Xiaotao looked at him strangely.

She remembered Ye Xishui saying that her teacher was her descendant, Zhongli Wu was her son, and Feng Ling was Zhongli Wu's wife and also her teacher's ex-girlfriend. So, her teacher and Zhongli Wu...

"No, I can't think about it anymore. The more I think about this relationship, the more wrong it feels."

Ma Xiaotao shook her head and then asked, "Grandmaster, what I really don't understand is why Seagod Island would accept these two evil soul masters?"

"It's probably because of the Grim Reaper's Corpse Explosion skill!"

Old Mu's eyes flickered as he thought of the far north.

Dugu Han had told him that there would be a great war in the future. Although Dugu Han had not explained it to him, he could now deduce that this great war was related to the far north and Poseidon Island!
The Grim Reaper's Corpse Explosion skill is an absolute godsend on a battlefield littered with corpses.

"correct!"

Elder Mu looked at Ma Xiaotao and asked, "Did you come back by yourself? Didn't your junior uncle come back with you?"

"Me, Wu Ming, and Ning Tian, ​​as for Junior Uncle..."

Ma Xiaotao said, "He seems to have entered some inexplicable state. Ever since the second day after we went to that place, his consciousness has been like a coma, and he hasn't woken up for a year and a half!"

"How is he doing?" Old Mu asked with some concern.

"Grandmaster, don't worry!"

Ma Xiaotao smiled and said, "Junior Uncle is in good condition, but he has not woken up yet. Moreover, there is a kind of spiritual fluctuation on his body. We guess that he may be cultivating some kind of secret technique, so you don't need to worry too much."

"That's fine then. But something has happened in the far north. Please inform your junior uncle about this."

Old Mu frowned and took out a letter.

The letter was written by Xue Lao and sent to Dugu Han.
