Wang Bao - Alchemist - Defense Type

Dongfang Jiaojiao - Mage & Healer

Huo siblings (extreme offensive type)

In the days that followed, Ye Wen led his seven disciples on a soul-hunting mission. Thanks to the power of their mutated, pseudo-interdimensional soul skills, the surrounding soul beasts were completely unable to detect them.

Huo Rui and her brother were very lucky; they encountered a branch of their second soul ring, the Mighty Bear, and a family of the same clan, the Vajra Bear.

The age range is just right for the two siblings' third soul rings, one with 4000 years of cultivation and the other with 5000 years of cultivation.

Without any suspense, Huo Rui and her brother delivered the final blow to the two dominant King Kong bears.

The acquired soul skills remain the same.

Third Soul Skill: Vajra Body.

Huo Quan increases his overall defense by 60% for three minutes. Huo Rui increases her overall defense by 50% for three minutes.

As for the remaining five junior disciples, Ye Wen designed different directions for them to hunt for spirit rings, based on their different martial spirit characteristics.

Since Su Qiaoqiao's Embroidered Cloud Needle Martial Soul is a needle, it must have the ability to sew. Therefore, the best direction for her first spirit ring is related to spiders.

Ye Wen hunted a 400-year-old Warhammer Spider for her.

Unlike ordinary spiders, this spider does not weave webs, and its abdomen is not conical but oval. Its hunting method involves spinning a large amount of silk from its abdomen, forming a ball. If you get stuck in this ball and it hits your head directly, it's almost certainly fatal. However, if it sticks to your body, there is still a sliver of hope.

Because its spider silk is far more sticky than that of ordinary spider-like spirit beasts. Once it sticks to the head, it essentially deprives the prey of its ability to breathe. The prey can't even resist. If it's wrapped around the body, you can try to cut the spider silk with a sharp blade or something.

Su Qiaoqiao also gained this powerful spider silk generation, her first soul skill: Soul Thread Connection.

It can generate spider silk with exceptional stitching ability through its soul power, capable of mending even severed limbs. If combined with extremely powerful life-restoring soul skills, it can practically perform miracles of limb regeneration.

Unfortunately, Su Qiaoqiao is still too young to possess the advanced suturing skills required for such procedures. However, a glimmer of hope for her future is still possible.

Among these five junior disciples, Hu Rou's physical abilities are definitely the strongest because she has a Beast Martial Soul. Before reaching the Soul Saint level, the Martial Soul has an absolute advantage in enhancing the body.

So Ye Wen hunted a 500-year-old soft-boned rabbit for her.

According to Ye Wen's research, if a Soul Master can absorb a Soul Ring of the same type as themselves, the bonus they receive will be the greatest, just like the theory of a simulated training environment.

However, the absorption of the first spirit ring doesn't show any significant difference yet.

However, after Hu Rou absorbed her first spirit ring, her physique, now imbued with a martial spirit, became even more slender, her legs strong, long, and straight, brimming with youthful vitality. Looking at the two fluffy ears on her head, Ye Wen mischievously ruffled them.

"Ah~, Master hates QQ." Hu Rou said shyly in a coquettish voice.

Ye Wen then asked Hu Rou what kind of soul skill she had acquired.

First Soul Skill: Waist Bow.

It has the same first soul skill as that 100,000-year-old rogue rabbit. But thinking about it, it makes sense. What good soul skill could a mere 100-year-old soft-boned rabbit have? Even with top-tier bloodlines, the reason why rabbit soul beasts have always had a low status is because their attack power is too poor, and they basically use their talents to escape.

Fortunately, he didn't get the Charm Soul Skill. In Ye Wen's opinion, this Soul Skill was useless. At most, it could only bully weaklings. If he encountered someone stronger than himself, it would backfire on him. It was simply a trash skill.

The next three disciples, Xu Teng hunted down a 500-year-old ghost vine and obtained the soul skill Parasitism. Combined with the terrifying innate talent of the Demonic Vine, being entangled with it basically meant certain death or serious injury.

Wang Bao, on the other hand, hunted a fire lizard that was about 500 years old.

Although this kind of soul beast is inconspicuous, it has a faint trace of dragon bloodline and is also fire-attribute, which is relatively suitable for the future of Wang Bao, the alchemy furnace.

First Soul Skill: Wandering Fire

A ball of flame is generated from the alchemy furnace, which can heat the martial spirit itself or be shot out to fight the enemy, although its power is not very strong.

As for Dongfang Jiaojiao, because the light attribute spirit beasts corresponding to her light attribute spirit are extremely rare, the group wandered around the forest for a week before finally finding a 400-year-old Blazing Light Butterfly.

During this time, she did encounter a few other soul beasts with the attribute of light, but without exception, they were all of the thousand-year level, and Dongfang Jiaojiao had no way to absorb them.

Unfortunately, apart from Su Qiaoqiao, whose martial soul and physical talent are only at the level of ordinary soul masters.

The other four junior disciples all had a physical limit of around 500 years, so Dongfang Jiaojiao had no choice but to settle for absorbing this soul ring, which was below her absorption limit. Fortunately, its attributes were a perfect match, allowing Dongfang Jiaojiao's martial soul, the Light Origin, to grow somewhat; otherwise, it would have been a huge loss.

"First Soul Skill: Light Butterfly Dance".

"It generates butterflies composed of light attributes, which inflict light attribute damage on teammates and unleash a light butterfly explosion attack on enemies," Dongfang Jiaojiao said slowly.

The group was overjoyed; the past month of hard work had truly exhausted them. Seeing their youngest sister acquire such a remarkable soul skill brought them a sense of relief.

"Very good, this Soul Hunting Operation has been a complete success."

However, I want you to remember that you must remain vigilant at all times when hunting for spirit rings. Because in this spirit beast forest, you will not only face attacks from spirit beasts, but also the malice of spirit masters, as this is a lawless place, and even if a titled Douluo dies here, no one will care.

Although you didn't have a direct conflict with other Soul Masters this time because of me, I imagine you witnessed the tragic state of their battles.

So remember this well: although I am your master, I cannot protect you every moment.

"Yes, Master."

Huo Rui and her siblings were alright, but the other five children were clearly reminded of some unpleasant memories, and they responded with pale faces.

Seeing this, Ye Wen nodded in satisfaction and began leading the team back.

The journey was fraught with danger but ultimately safe. Ye Wen even managed to find the corpses of several soul beasts that could fetch a good price.

"Once Ah Yin becomes the Soul King and her spiritual power undergoes a transformation, her Blue Silver Domain should be able to communicate with those Blue Silver Grasses. Then, we can start our big business of making money by picking up corpses," Ye Wen thought happily.
