Douluo: Because he was afraid of dying, he maxed out his defense.

Just as Chen Yu finished planning his future soul skills, a surge of powerful spiritual energy once again flooded into his brain.

Chen Yu was completely bewildered.

No, he didn't impart any knowledge this time either!

Chen Yu frowned, realizing that things were not as simple as he had imagined.

Could it be that one can gain mental power by shocking others?

Shock level?

After calming his mind, which was still somewhat dazed from the surge in mental power, Chen Yu looked at the others in the cave.

But that doesn't make sense!

Logically speaking, his previous dissemination of the Ice Heart Technique should have been far more shocking!

Afterwards, climbing trees and wading in water were relatively ordinary, but the result was that the mental energy was greater.

He hasn't done anything yet, but his mental energy is at its peak.

No, he did do something, too.

He obtained the first ring of a thousand years, a powerful soul skill!

Therefore, the people in the tribe value the combat power of Soul Masters more?

That's possible!

In a tribe, the most important thing is the population, followed by the people who protect the tribe.

The stronger he is, the more shock points he will naturally gain, and thus more mental energy.

The more Chen Yu thought about it, the more sense it made.

However, the actual situation was indeed much as Chen Yu had imagined.

However, the higher Chen Yu's combat strength, the more spiritual power he obtains, because that's because of people from 20,000 years in the future.

Seeing Chen Yu's strength increase, these people will feel even more strongly that Chen Yu is someone who can become a god.

Then, more and more people came to believe in Chen Yu, and Chen Yu's spiritual power surged.

Although Chen Yu's process was flawed and his conclusion was wrong, his direction was correct.

The stronger Chen Yu becomes, the more spiritual power he will naturally gain.

Yes, my mental strength has increased by about 100 points. I should now have around 600 points of mental strength, which is at the early stage of the Spirit Sea Realm.

Chen Yu sensed his own spiritual power and made a rough judgment.

Since he awakened the martial spirits of his brain and eyes, he has gained a more intuitive understanding of his spiritual power.

While not entirely accurate, it's close enough.

Chen Yu was eager to know whether, once his mental strength became stronger, he would be able to perceive the specific source of his mental power.

……

at the same time.

Location of the Black Rhino Tribe and the Snow Mastiff Tribe.

Outside the cave, a great battle is about to break out.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect there to be so many Soul Masters here!"

"Now the bone-swallowing owls can have a feast!"

Several men in black watched as Shi Xi and the others released their martial spirits, and then laughed heartily.

"Boss, this is just a tribe of natives, they don't even have a Soul King. Leave this to me!"

The small, thin evil spirit master patted his chest and assured him.

"Alright then, in that case, Evil Monkey, I'll leave this place to you."

"Blood Bear, let's go, let's continue hunting down that group of Shi family members!"

The leader of the evil spirit masters agreed, and then, together with another shorter and stockier spirit master, they ran towards the depths of the Dragon Soaring Mountains in the south.

In the sky, a dozen bone-swallowing owls let out mournful and eerie cries.

"Damn it, I knew there was something wrong with that group of city people."

Outside the cave, the old lame dog cursed angrily, his eyes fixed on the evil spirit master named Evil Monkey.

Evil Soul Master!

According to the information they received from their tribe, it was an entity that specialized in slaughtering humans.

Moreover, evil spirit masters are generally very powerful. Even if there is only one evil spirit master left, Old Crippled Dog cannot guarantee that the spirit masters of the two tribes can defeat the evil spirit master in front of him.

Not to mention, there were also some ancient bone-swallowing owls watching them from the sky.

"Old cripple, it looks like we're going to die here."

Compared to the old lame dog's unwilling expression, Shi Xi appeared extremely calm, even somewhat resigned to his fate.

However, the old lame dog's lips curled up slightly when he said this.

In his view, it was enough that the women and children in the tribe were safe.

In fact, as long as Chen Yu and the other children are still alive, their Black Rhino tribe will never disappear.

This shows Shi Xi's trust in Chen Yu.

"Hehehe, what are you saying?"

"If you surrender now, I can guarantee you'll die without pain!"

The evil monkey chuckled a few times, sticking out its tongue and licking the sharp claws in its hand.

His martial spirit is the Evil Monkey, an evil monkey that specializes in devouring brains, with claws that are over ten centimeters long, capable of easily prying open a person's skull.

"You're talking nonsense!" the old lame dog roared. "In our Snow Mastiff tribe, only warriors die standing!"

As the old lame dog spoke, the Snow Mastiff's martial spirit possessed him, and his entire body instantly swelled from a thin and small figure into a muscular strongman, with tough fur growing on his body.

However, at this moment, Shi Xi reached out and stopped the old lame dog.

"Old cripple, don't fall for his trick. Let's retreat to the cave."

"He is alone. No matter how strong he is, he cannot break through the cave under the defense of our Black Rhino Tribe. Those evil birds flying in the sky cannot exert their full combat power inside the cave."

With that, Shi Xi pulled the old lame dog back into the cave, and the other soul masters from the two tribes also retreated into the cave.

Upon seeing this, the evil monkey's face turned terrifyingly black.

His martial soul is the Evil Monkey. Although he now possesses the strength of a Soul Emperor, the Evil Monkey belongs to the agility-attack type. While its attack power is strong, it is impossible for it to break through the defense-type Soul Master.

If the Black Rhino Tribe's Soul Masters defend with all their might, he indeed has no way to break through their defenses.

Thinking of this, the evil monkey pretended to be calm.

"Hehehe, I can't break through the defenses, but I've got you all guarding this place by myself. Once the boss and the others return, you're all doomed!"

"Don't try to provoke us. I bet if you don't get back in time, your boss won't give you a friendly look!"

Shi Xi looked disdainful; he had met the previous head of the Shi family before.

That's a Soul Saint level expert, and one who excels at defense.

Without the help of more evil birds, those two evil soul masters would never have been able to defeat the Shi family patriarch, who was skilled in defense.

Upon hearing this, the evil monkey's expression became even more sinister.

"Fine, fine, you really think I can't do anything to you?"

The evil monkey was enraged when the stone rhinoceros guessed its thoughts.

The next second, the evil monkey whistled, and four bone-swallowing owls flew straight down and rushed towards the cave.

"All Black Rhino Warriors, use Water Armor Shields!"

Seeing this, Shi Xi remained calm and led the Soul Masters of the Black Rhino Tribe to possess their Martial Souls and unleash the Water Armor Shield.

Inside the cave, yellow and purple soul rings flashed by, and rhinoceros-men conjured massive water shields in their hands.

Under the influence of the spirit attributes of these spirit masters and the surrounding cold environment, the water shield instantly transformed into an indestructible ice shield.

"Bang bang bang!"

The massive bodies of the Bone-Eating Owls crashed into an ice shield, shattering it instantly. However, the owls' strength was also depleted by the ice shield, and they fell one by one into the cave.

"A great opportunity! Warriors of the Snow Mastiff tribe, attack together!"

The old lame dog roared, and its Snow Mastiff martial spirit sprouted sharp claws, pinning a bone-swallowing owl beneath it.

Surprisingly, the old lame dog was quite strong, and a ten-thousand-year-old bone-swallowing owl was so crushed that it could not get up!

"How is that possible!"

The evil monkey's face was filled with disbelief.

There's something wrong with the people from those two tribes.

One has strong defenses, the other has strong power.

His bone-swallowing owls were taken down in an instant?

The evil monkey watched the bone-swallowing owls struggle desperately, and its face turned deathly pale.

If the leader found out that his beloved bone-swallowing owls had been killed by these two tribes...

Thinking of this, the evil monkey no longer cared about his disadvantage as an agility-type battle spirit master and rushed into the cave.
