Unrivaled Tang Sect: Xiao Ding Zhen Tian

Chapter 23: Level , Soul Hunting Alone
In this auction, although the city lord gave away a precious ten thousand year soul bone to help the royal family with their payments, his income was actually very considerable, at least tens of millions of gold soul coins.

After leaving Box No. 1, Xiao Yun and Xiao Xiao said goodbye to the city lord and his daughter and returned to their home in the east of the city.

The family had a simple lunch, and Xiao Yun and Xiao Xiao continued to go to the City Lord's Mansion to practice.

There were no further setbacks in the following months, and Xiao Yun completed the breakthrough to level 30 a few days before the Shrek Academy's enrollment day.

"Xiao Yun, are you really determined to go to the Xingdou Great Forest alone? This is no joke. Even in the outskirts of the Xingdou Great Forest, there are thousand-year-old soul beasts. With your current strength, soul beasts of this level should still be difficult to deal with, right?"

Before going to Shrek Academy, Xiao Yun made a very surprising decision - that is, he planned to obtain his third soul ring by himself!

This decision really shocked Xiao Yang and Shen Wanqing. Xiao Yun's talent was outstanding, and he even possessed a mutant twin martial spirit. But even so, it was difficult for them to let their child go hunting spirit beasts alone.

Because Xiao Yun’s second soul ring is already a thousand years old, the third soul ring will only be older.

How could Xiao Yun have the strength to hunt a soul beast of that level?
Standing at the door, listening to his father's doubts and the worry in his tone, Xiao Yun smiled gently and comforted his father, "Dad, are you still worried about my character? I will definitely not do anything that I can't do. I have made considerable preparations for hunting soul beasts this time. You don't know that I have actually discussed this matter with the city lord uncle."

He raised his right hand, with a gleaming silver ring on his index finger. "Uncle City Lord gave me a very powerful soul guide. Plus I have a level 4 invincible shield, so soul beasts under 5,000 years old can't hurt me at all."

"And this time my target is only soul beasts around 3,000 years old, most of which are power-type soul beasts. These soul beasts usually move very slowly. Even if I can't beat them, I can still run away!"

"But, with Master Song sending you, Xiaoxiao and Yuner to Shrek Academy, you can ask him to help you get the third soul ring. Why go through so much trouble?" Xiao Yang was still puzzled.

Only Xiao Yun himself knew why he wanted to act alone.

Because this time, he planned to use his trump card, the ability to use his second martial soul and two martial souls at the same time.

This ability cannot be known to anyone other than family members for the time being. It’s not that Xiao Yun doesn’t trust Old Song, but after all, Old Song is not a family member, so he still chooses to conceal it.

Xiao Yun had actually done some research on the second martial soul, but apart from possessing spiritual power, it felt like there was not much difference between it and Xiao Xiao's Nine Phoenixes Flute. Even if it was a mutation, no one knew what it had mutated into.

Although the name is Frost Condensed Cold Moon Flute, Xiao Yun actually named it because of the color of the flute's martial soul. This martial soul does not have any ice attribute at all.

Shrek Academy is not like Maple Leaf City, where geniuses gather. If he cannot master all the existing forces, even with his current strength, he may not be able to stand out immediately if he goes there.

After being harassed by Xiao Yun for a long time, Xiao Yang finally agreed to Xiao Yun's request reluctantly.

Just as Xiao Yun said, with his current strength and soul guide, he could protect himself even if he couldn't win. Moreover, Xiao Yang felt that the child had grown up and it was time for him to hone himself, so he simply let Xiao Yun go out alone.

Xiao Xiao was still reluctant to see her brother leave early. After bringing Nanmen Yuner from the City Lord's Mansion, the two girls took Xiao Yun on a tour around Maple Leaf City. Before leaving, they repeatedly told Xiao Yun to pay attention to his own safety, and then they watched him leave from the city gate reluctantly.

Xiao Yun had some money on hand, so after renting a carriage, he headed towards the outskirts of the Star Forest, which was closest to Maple Leaf City.

By the time they reached the outskirts, the sky had gradually darkened. After entering the forest, Xiao Yun did not choose to go in and search for soul beasts immediately. Instead, he observed the surroundings, found a place without soul beasts, and sat down against a tree. "After traveling to this world for so long, this is the first time I've left home alone and ventured out." Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Xiao Yun sighed in his heart.

Xiao Yun was actually a little reluctant to leave home alone. After all, they were family members that he had lived with for eleven years.

However, this emotion only lasted for a short time, and Xiao Yun recovered and began to plan what soul beast to hunt with his third soul ring.

"My first soul skill, Cauldron Power, and my second soul skill, Cauldron Shadow, are absolutely sufficient so far. With these two soul skills working together, I at least have the strength to fight against a Soul Master alone. The Golden Dragon Sculpture and the Silver Dragon Sculpture can further multiply my strength, and my soul power will not be consumed for a certain period of time. My explosive power is definitely no problem."

"As for battery life, the Level 2 bottle should allow me to continue using it during the Level 3 stage, so I won't be short of it."

"In this case, the only thing left is the speed of attack."

After some consideration, Xiao Yun suddenly realized that his third soul ring was not so easy to obtain.

First of all, his requirement for the third soul ring is that the soul skill must increase speed, but the soul ring itself must also increase the weight or strength of the martial soul. Such a soul beast is not easy to find.

Xiao Yun first ruled out the power-type soul beasts. In fact, the Titan Giant Ape, which possessed the gravity control soul skill, was originally a soul beast that Xiao Yun favored very much. Unfortunately, this kind of soul beast could only be encountered when going deeper into the Xingdou Great Forest, and it also depended on luck. He might die before he even saw it.

"I remember that in the city lord uncle's collection of books, there was an introduction to this type of soul beast."

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yun began to recall the information about soul beasts that he had written down when he was reading the book.

Nether Lion? No, Lightning Leopard? No, that's not right either.
Wait a moment.

Thinking of a certain moment, Xiao Yun suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Power and speed, that's him."

The soul beast that Xiao Yun was thinking of was a soul beast called the King Kong Tiger. However, the habitat of this soul beast was in the outer forest of the Xingdou Great Forest near the border of the Xingluo Empire.

The King Kong Tiger not only possesses powerful strength, but also has excellent explosive power. Moreover, this soul beast has a very outstanding amplification soul skill - King Kong Transformation!

If he could get the King Kong Tiger's amplifying soul skill, it would completely make up for his current shortcomings!
However, it would probably take several days to get to Xingluo, and I didn't know if it would be in time to go to Shrek Academy by then.

"No matter what, this soul beast is definitely the most suitable one for me at this stage. If I can't get it, I really won't be able to sleep well!" After a short rest, Xiao Yun chose to stand up.

Under the long night, Xiao Yun circled the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest and groped his way towards the border of Xing Luo.
