Chapter 29: The Fourth Ring of Ten Thousand Years
Dugu Bo was once again shocked by Long Chen's words.
The energy impact of the ten thousand year soul ring is a huge test for soul masters.
Even he dared to try to absorb the ten thousand year soul ring after his soul power reached level 50.
And Long Chen, a soul master who had just entered level 40, was so confident.
"Boy, are you really sure that you can withstand the energy impact of the ten thousand year soul ring?"
"Senior, don't worry, I have made up my mind."
Long Chen smiled slightly, with a firm look in his eyes.
He had eaten whale glue, and with the body-refining effects of the eight-angled black ice grass and the blazing apricot, his body was no longer comparable to that of an ordinary soul master.
Moreover, he had specially taken the Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew a few days ago, and his mental power was greatly improved.
Therefore, he believed that he could withstand the energy impact of the ten thousand year soul ring.
Dugu Bo frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he nodded.
"Okay, since you are so confident, then I will accompany you to the Star Dou Great Forest."
The two immediately set off and headed for the Star Dou Great Forest.
They reached their destination in two days.
Long Chen was no stranger to this forest, having been here many times.
However, he had never been deep into the forest.
This time they were looking for a ten-thousand-year soul beast, which was hard to find outside the forest, so they had to go inside.
Dugu Bo, with his rich experience and keen perception, led Long Chen to explore the center of the forest.
After two days of searching, they finally found their target in a deep valley.
The soul beast was four meters long, huge, with black fur, eyes flashing with a faint red light, and exuding a heart-pounding aura.
Dugu Bo said softly,
"It's a ghost tiger that has been cultivating for ten thousand years."
"I'll take it!"
A hint of excitement flashed in Long Chen's eyes.
"Senior, let me deal with this ghost tiger myself."
After hearing this, Dugu Bo's face changed. "You kid, are you kidding?"
This is a ten thousand year soul beast, with strong combat power. Moreover, its speed is faster than that of ordinary tiger soul beasts. You have just reached level 40, you are no match for it."
"How can i know if you haven't tried it?"
Dugu Bo shook his head gently and smiled:
"You kid are too confident. Not only did you absorb the ten thousand year soul ring, but you also want to hunt down the ten thousand year ghost tiger by yourself."
"If I can't deal with it, it won't be too late for you to take action."
"You really won't cry until you see the coffin. Well, then you go and try."
Under Dugu Bo's slightly worried and expectant eyes, Long Chen stretched out his body and faced the ten thousand year ghost tiger alone.
Long Chen's mind was focused, and the Dark Night Magic Harp martial spirit instantly appeared in front of him.
As his fingertips plucked lightly, a series of low and mysterious piano sounds echoed in the valley, directly hitting the depths of the ghost tiger's soul.
The ghost tiger was startled by the sudden sound of the piano. Its eyes glowed red. It roared and pounced towards Long Chen at a speed as fast as black lightning.
Facing this surging attack, Long Chen was well prepared.
His fingers jumped quickly on the strings of the harp. As the sound of the piano stirred, a huge green black tortoise phantom wrapped him tightly.
The ghost tiger's claws and fangs hit the black tortoise phantom fiercely, but only caused ripples, unable to penetrate the seemingly weak but actually indestructible light and shadow defense.
Seeing this scene, Dugu Bo was shocked.
He didn't expect that Long Chen, as a control-type soul master, had such a strong defense that he could easily resist the attack of the ten thousand year ghost tiger.
What surprised Dugu Bo even more was that behind the black tortoise phantom, a huge snake tail quietly stretched out, flexibly wrapped around the ghost tiger and restricted its movement.
However, the ghost tiger was a ten thousand year old soul beast after all, and would not surrender easily.
It roared continuously, and the soul power in its body surged, and the powerful force broke free from the shackles of the black tortoise phantom.
When it launched the attack again, its body suddenly split into two, turning into two identical black shadows, attacking the head and tail of the black tortoise phantom respectively.
Facing the cunning counterattack of the ghost tiger, Long Chen raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
He moved his fingers slightly, and the first soul skill suddenly started.
A huge Taotie phantom appeared out of thin air, with the momentum of devouring everything, and collided head-on with the ghost tiger's body.
Seeing the Taotie phantom with a human face and a sheep body, Dugu Bo was shocked again.
"What is this? Why are Long Chen's soul skills so weird? What an evil boy."
Under Long Chen's control, Taotie and the ghost tiger started a fierce fight, biting each other madly.
Although the ferocious monster was just a phantom, it had a powerful attack power comparable to that of a real thing.
After a fierce fight, Taotie showed its overwhelming power and bit the ghost tiger's neck.
The powerful force made the ghost tiger struggle in vain, and finally, with a desperate roar, it was completely suppressed and bitten to death by Taotie.
"How is this possible?!"
"Killing a ghost tiger with a cultivation of ten thousand years with a hundred-year soul skill!"
Dugu Bo witnessed the whole process from the side, and the expression on his face could no longer be described as shock.
He never thought that the beast summoned by Long Chen through the sound of the piano was so powerful.
Long Chen put away the Dark Night Magic Piano martial spirit.
Dugu Bo walked towards him.
"Boy, what is that monster you summoned with the sound of the harp? I've never seen it before."
"It's called Taotie, an ancient beast."
"Taotie?"
Dugu Bo shook his head.
"Boy, your soul skills are too weird. I've lived for seventy or eighty years, and I've never seen a soul master and soul skills like you. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe that someone could kill a soul beast that has cultivated for ten thousand years with a hundred-year soul skill."
Long Chen smiled and didn't explain too much.
Dugu Bo only realized now that Long Chen's confidence came from his own strong strength.
"Okay, adjust your state and prepare to absorb the soul ring. I'll protect you."
"Okay, thank you."
A wisp of black mist slowly rose from the body of the ghost tiger, and gradually condensed into a ten thousand year soul ring emitting black light in the air.
Long Chen adjusted his state, pulled the ten thousand year soul ring over, and then began to absorb it.
As the soul ring was absorbed, waves of majestic energy surged in Long Chen's body, like a river flowing into the sea.
Long Chen felt the impact of the huge energy, and beads of sweat continued to seep out of his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and persisted.
Dugu Bo watched closely from the side, ready to deal with any unexpected events.
Although he believed in Long Chen, absorbing the ten thousand year soul ring was still a huge test for a fourteen-year-old young soul master who had just entered the fortieth level.
As time passed, Long Chen's aura gradually stabilized, and the soul power that had been fluctuating violently began to calm down.
Dugu Bo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Long Chen has successfully passed the most dangerous stage.
