Devouring the Stars: Soul Master

Chapter 40 Breakthrough, Hunting!
In the courtyard of a dilapidated residential building, Qin Ming, holding a Broken Army Halberd, maneuvered while being besieged by a group of Tiger and Ao Dogs.

Every time the Broken Army Halberd was swung, at least one Tiger Ao Dog would howl and die.

He did not use flying knives, nor did he control the souls of the monsters in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner to attack.

Instead, he relied entirely on the warrior's strength to train his own body skills.

Qin Ming's movements were different from Ling Qianye's ghostly movements in the team. They were very simple, consisting of a few moves: rushing forward to stab, sideways to slash, spinning around to sweep, and stepping back to defend.

It can be combined with the Broken Army Halberd in the hand, showing extremely efficient and domineering lethality when opened and closed.

Roar!
The leading intermediate beast general, Tiger Ao Dog leader, roared madly and pounced forward fiercely, but Qin Ming just turned slightly and avoided the attack at a very dangerous distance.

The moment he turned sideways, the Broken Army Halberd pierced out like a dragon, piercing through another high-level beast soldier-level Tiger-Ao Dog that was rushing towards him.

Then he lowered his shoulders and elbows, and the Broken Army Halberd chopped down like thunder, killing another Tiger Ao Dog.

The Tiger-Ao Dog leader roared repeatedly, and two streams of white air spurted out of his nostrils.

He attacked again and again, but was able to dodge every time.

At the moment of the encounter, he was repeatedly injured by the spear tip and crescent blade of the Pojun Halberd, leaving several wounds on his body.

Although these injuries had little impact on it, the anger in its heart grew stronger as it watched its tribesmen continue to die.

"Breakthrough! His strength has reached the level of an intermediate general.

He had perfected the first level of the Broken Army Halberd, and was also making some progress on the second level.

His body movements are pretty good at the subtle level, but still far from perfect."

Shuttled among the tiger and dog packs, feeling the changes in the body brought about by the continuous absorption of the essence of flesh and blood, as well as the information coming from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner.

A smile appeared on Qin Ming's lips. He used the long spear in his hand as easily as his own arm. Wherever the crescent moon shone, the spear tip followed like a shadow. In a short time, he killed all the more than 20 tiger dogs.

Among them, there are even two primary beast general-level tiger-ao dogs.

"Pfft!"

A cold light flashed, like a bolt of lightning.

With a splash of blood, the Broken Army Halberd slashed down from above the head of the Tiger Ao Dog leader, and the huge head of the Tiger Ao Dog leader was directly chopped off.

The headless body collapsed with a loud bang, causing the entire ground to shake violently.

"call--"

He launched an attack instantly, killing the Tiger Dog leader, and Qin Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

He has been in City 003 for thirteen days.

With flesh and blood puppets and the souls in the Ten Thousand Souls Banner on guard all around, he didn't even need to go back to the base and was completely immersed in the battle.

Every day he was completely immersed in the battle, fighting with all his might.

He tried again and again to push his body and halberd skills to the limit, using other monsters and the surrounding environment to train himself.

This allowed him to absorb the essence of blood and flesh much faster than normal.

Therefore, his speed of breaking through to the intermediate general level warrior was faster than expected.

"After breaking through to the intermediate level of warrior, the spiritualist has reached the level of a primary war god and can hunt down lord-level monsters."

Qin Ming carried the Broken Army Halberd on his shoulder, and all the corpses of the Tiger and Ao Dog on the ground disappeared under the influence of an unknown force.

brush!brush!brush!
As soon as the thought comes to mind, the high-level beasts lurking around will emerge from every corner of the city ruins.

Fire-scaled trident pig, iron-armored bull, tiger cat...

A total of twenty-six high-level beast generals.

This was another gain Qin Ming had made in the thirteen days.

With the addition of these high-level beast generals' flesh and blood puppets, the speed at which the Ten Thousand Souls Banner collected monsters' flesh and blood and souls increased again.

In fact, if Qin Ming wanted, the number of these flesh and blood puppets could be increased tenfold or a hundredfold.

But after actual operation, Qin Ming gave up this idea.

Because the price-performance ratio is too low.

Transforming a monster's corpse into a flesh and blood puppet also requires a large amount of flesh and blood essence.

There was no rush to leave. After finding a place, Qin Ming sat cross-legged and began to practice the Daoyin technique.

"It feels so good."

"Continuous battles have exhausted my body to the limit. Then, practicing Daoyin, it feels like every cell in my body is trembling."

The breakthrough in strength made Qin Ming happy.

The fight between life and death can subconsciously tap into every bit of strength in the body.

This kind of deep excavation allows one to absorb more genetic energy every time one practices.

Not only him, but other warriors are like this.

Just because he has the essence of flesh and blood and the crystallization of the soul, his progress is much faster than others!

……

brush!
Qin Ming flew into the air and landed on the back of the Green Scaled Eagle.

The Green Scaled Eagle flapped its wings and broke the speed of sound in an instant.

Although Qin Ming can fly by using his mental power, his speed is far inferior to that of the flying monster.

As a flying monster, the Blue Scaled Eagle's speed is even slower than that of an average Lord-level monster.

Moreover, during the battles that lasted for more than ten days, this Green Scaled Eagle also devoured a large amount of blood and flesh essence, and its strength was even stronger than when it was alive!
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
Five equally huge flying monsters accompanied the Green Scaled Eagle on both sides to escort and fly with it.

Obviously these are the other flying monsters that Qin Ming has subdued.

In the smoke-filled area below, a team of twenty high-level beast generals rushed towards a building materials market in the suburbs of the city.

Although there are only twenty monsters, the power they exude is comparable to that of thousands of troops.

All the monsters along the way retreated and dared not to block them.

Anyone who ran a little slower would die on the spot.

In the sky, Qin Ming quickly arrived at his destination.

Before the Great Nirvana, this was a building materials wholesale market, but now it is occupied by a primary lord-level monster, the Giant Rock Black Bear.

After circling in the sky for a few times, Qin Ming, with his powerful eyesight, quickly spotted a huge monster about seven or eight meters tall below through the thick fog - the Giant Rock Black Bear!
As a primary lord-level being, the Giant Rock Black Bear has immense strength. Its rock-like skin is harder than diamond, and even large-caliber artillery shells cannot break it!

In a military combat video, Qin Ming saw a lord-level giant rock black bear withstand the bombardment of tank artillery and knock the heavy tank away.

Such a large body moves at the speed of sound.

Just one collision is enough to be fatal.

Of course, among lord-level monsters, the speed of sound is nothing.

What's truly terrifying about this giant rock black bear is its pair of paws, which swing much faster than its movement speed.

Even if the Black God suit weakened the ninth level's impact, if Qin Ming was hit, he would be seriously injured if not killed.

Moreover, there are a large number of monsters gathered around this giant rock black bear, the largest number of which are pig and dog monsters, at least more than 10,000.

There are as many as twelve high-level beast generals alone, and the number of other beast generals is nearly a thousand.

"Keep your distance from the Giant Rock Black Bear and kill it remotely from the sky! With a Lord-level monster flesh puppet, you can quickly snowball.

The speed of hunting monsters can also be increased tenfold or a hundredfold.

It won’t be long before the blood and flesh essence needed to upgrade the Ten Thousand Souls Banner can be collected.”

Looking down at the huge black bear lying on the rock to rest, Qin Ming's eyes flashed with brilliance.

Rumbling--

Soon, the twenty high-level beast generals and flesh puppets running behind them rushed over. The unconcealed movement immediately attracted the attention of the large group of monsters.

Roar--

The dozing Black Rock Giant Bear suddenly stood up, roared to the sky, and his copper-bell-like eyes were filled with anger.

A mere group of high-level beast generals actually dared to invade its territory?
