Chapter 101 Soul Hunting 30
Chapter 102 Soul Hunting 3.0
Two years later, in the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Xiao Ao, this is already the inner area of the Star Dou Great Forest, a gathering place for ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. There should be a suitable fourth soul ring for you here."
Li Luochen was leading a young man with silver hair to give an explanation here.
The silver-haired youth is Oscar. Oscar is fourteen years old this year, and his soul power has reached level forty. Li Luochen is taking him out to hunt souls.
Li Luochen is currently eighteen years old and his soul power has reached level sixty-seven. His actual combat strength is extremely powerful. He can kill an ordinary Soul Saint with a flick of his hand, and even a Soul Douluo cannot defeat him.
In any case, Dai Tianxing, at level 85, cannot defeat Li Luochen; he would even have difficulty suppressing him.
Because Li Luochen's soul power was too high to be a student, Flander directly made Li Luochen a teacher, and even the head of the teaching department, because Li Luochen's theoretical knowledge was very rich and he was very suitable to be a teacher.
Li Luochen also felt it was about right, so he agreed. Oscar and Ma Hongjun's soul power was much stronger than in the original timeline.
Oscar has reached the bottleneck of level 40, while Ma Hongjun only reached level 39 a month ago. Compared to the original timeline where one was at level 29 and the other at level 27, they are practically two different people.
Moreover, both Oscar and Ma Hongjun completed the assessment of the Great Soul Arena, or more accurately, exceeded expectations. Both of them received the Gold Soul Badge, which was higher than when Li Luochen graduated.
When Li Luochen went to Heaven Dou City, he was just a few matches away from reaching the Gold Soul Badge, but because of the Immortal Herb, he became a Soul Master in just a few months and didn't continue to go to the Soto Great Soul Arena.
Oscar and Ma Hongjun completed the Great Soul Arena assessment a month and a half ago, both receiving gold Soul Badges. All that remains is to break through level 40 and graduate as Soul Masters.
At Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai still has the same level 37 soul power as in the original story, but he is at the peak of level 37 and will soon break through to level 38. Because Dai Mubai provoked Li Luochen and the others, he was somewhat isolated, so he played around even more in Soto City.
Dai Mubai's soul power is still at this level because Li Luochen made the move. Dai Mubai's current rate of soul power improvement is squeezing out his potential, and the hidden injuries in his body will become more and more serious.
Dai Mubai should be able to feel that he is becoming increasingly powerless, which means that his health is gradually deteriorating. Is this why he likes to talk big?
"Brother Chen, which spirit ring do you think I should choose for my fourth spirit ring?"
Oscar was a bit confused about the choice of the fourth spirit ring, while Li Luochen's choice was that the best fourth spirit ring would be a spirit skill that amplifies all attributes.
As for this kind of top-grade soul skill, it is very difficult to obtain. Generally, soul beasts with this ability have a skill called berserk mode. However, the side effects of berserk mode are too great. It is a soul skill that involves risking one's life and is not very suitable.
Li Luochen wanted a 9,000-year-old soul ring that would boost all his attributes. The boost could be small and short-lived, but preferably without any side effects.
This makes the choice difficult. Oscar's current soul skills are recovery, flight, and detoxification. Ideally, his fourth soul skill should be for amplification and have no side effects. Oscar's fifth and sixth soul skills will be his offensive methods.
With this, Oscar's foundation is now solid. If we find him some more soul bones, he'll be invincible.
"Sigh, so we can only look for it. Unfortunately, I can't suppress the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that's over 5,000 years old right now, and their soul ring energy is very violent. I don't think you might be able to absorb it. Otherwise, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear would be quite suitable for you."
Li Luochen knew that the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was a versatile soul beast whose amplification soul skills never disappointed. However, it was a pity that the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's power was too strong, and even though Oscar's physical body had been honed to an excellent level, he might not be able to absorb it.
The older the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, the more powerful it is. Oscar can absorb those under 5,000 years old, but he might not be able to withstand those over 5,000 years old. Li Luochen has a bit of OCD; he's a little uncomfortable that Oscar's fourth spirit ring isn't older than his third spirit ring's 3,000-year age. If all else fails, Li Luochen plans to get Oscar a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear that's close to 5,000 years old.
The age is a bit off, but the quality is good enough. However, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is too rare to find.
Roar—
Huh? A furious roar rang out, startling Li Luochen and Oscar. The roar was incredibly deep and violent, indicating that it was from an extremely powerful soul beast. Li Luochen decided to try his luck.
Li Luochen grabbed Oscar, released his dragon wings, and carried Oscar quickly to the source of the roar.
A gigantic creature, nine meters tall and covered in red fur, was seen fighting a king of the earth.
The area was filled with the corpses of the Pink Lady, among which the leader of the Pink Lady was torn to pieces at the edge of the battlefield.
The battle here is incredibly thrilling. There's only one giant creature and one Earth King fighting each other, but the Earth King is at a disadvantage.
"Brother Chen, what kind of spirit beast is that? It killed so many Pink Lady ladies, even the leader lady died, yet the Earth King was suppressed? This Earth King must be close to 40,000 years old, right?"
Oscar stared at the battlefield in utter shock.
"The Earth King is indeed close to 40,000 years old, to be precise it should be around 38,000 or 39,000 years old. Moreover, this Earth King seems to have mutated, and its flames are extremely hot!"
The leader over there, Pink Lady, should be 35,000 years old, yet she was beaten like this. That red guy should be a bear, right? It looks like it's 9,000 years old, but I don't remember there being a pure power-type red bear like that.
Red bears are usually associated with fire, but this bear has many burn marks, so it's probably not a fire-type bear.
This seems to be outside my area of knowledge. What's going on? Could it be a new soul beast?
Li Luochen didn't recognize the new bear spirit beast for a moment and was a little confused.
Roar--
The Earth King was teetering on the brink of collapse, but after glancing at the Pink Lady, who was now a corpse, it used flames to burn itself, burning its own soul power to forcibly reach the 40,000-year level.
Both the Earth King and the Pink Lady are scorpion-type soul beasts, somewhat like a symbiotic relationship. The Earth King is extremely powerful and can protect the Pink Lady's clan, while the Pink Lady's red mist can help the Earth King become stronger.
Therefore, these two soul beasts are usually partners. The world of soul beasts is very simple: if you are useful to me and can protect me, I will have children for you. It's that simple, without any twists and turns.
This king of the earth is risking everything to avenge his mate, that wretched red bear. He's determined to kill the red bear, even at the cost of his own life.
The Earth King's attacks are becoming increasingly fierce, and the balance is beginning to tilt. It's now Red Bear's turn to be suppressed, and the flames burning his body are getting worse. Red Bear senses something is wrong, his eyes turn blood red, and the red light on his body surges again.
Its body expanded again, reaching a height of over ten meters. The red bear launched a counterattack, using a special ability to boost its strength once more. This was likely its trump card; if it didn't use it, it might be replaced by the Earth King before it.
