Douluo Continent: Half-level Innate Realm, but a Sword Cultivator with a Heart-Only Mind

The members of the Soul Hunting Team did not ignore Qi Dao's advice because of his age, and then in just over two hours they found traces of a large armored tortoise on a rocky beach.

On the rocky beach, several huge rocks are clustered together, and in the center of the rocks is a fairly open area that looks like a simple nest.

A dark-colored turtle, about two meters long, was lazily lying among them.

The black turtle's shell gleamed like a metallic surface, its four legs looked thick and powerful, and its skin appeared to be covered with scales.

Qi Dao looked at the armored tortoise from afar, a look of delight appearing on his face.

"A six-hundred-year-old armored tortoise!"

"That's it!"

"Alright, let's cripple it first, then we'll wait for Ado to finish it off!"

Without saying a word, the members of the Soul Hunter Group immediately began discussing tactics.

After a while.

The group slowly approached the armored tortoise's nest. When they were only ten meters away, Qi's mother stepped forward and said, "Let's stick to the old rules!"

After saying that, she released her martial spirit.

A red gem appeared floating in her hand, while two spirit rings, one white and one yellow, rose up beneath her feet.

At the same time, another gaunt middle-aged man in the Soul Hunter Group also released his Martial Soul.

His martial spirit is a bow and arrow.

Beneath his feet were two spirit rings, one white and one yellow.

His name is Chen Huan, his martial soul is the Bow, and he is a level 26 Great Soul Master.

After Qi's mother released her martial soul, her first and second soul rings lit up simultaneously.

As she chanted the incantation, two beams of red light shot into Chen Huan's body one after the other.

Qi Mu's first soul skill can grant teammates a 5% soul power boost for one minute.

The increase wasn't high, and the time was short, but being able to obtain a percentage-based soul skill with a ten-year soul ring was already an extremely lucky achievement.

Her second soul skill can slightly enhance the power of her teammates.

Although it's not a percentage, the increase is still considerable for Soul Masters at the same level.

After she amplified Chen Huan's power, Chen Huan also raised his hand and pulled the bowstring.

Strangely, the moment he drew the bowstring, an arrow materialized out of thin air.

Then his second spirit ring lit up, and the arrowhead became even sharper, with a spiral of spirit power condensing around it.

Qi Dao had heard his father mention Chen Huan's second soul skill.

His second soul skill is very useful; it can increase the penetrating power of arrows.

A single arrow can instantly injure most soul beasts under five hundred years old.

If combined with Qi Mu's amplification, the combined effect would almost kill a 500-year-old soul beast in one hit.

The only drawback is that this soul skill consumes a lot of energy. Once used, you can only slack off and play a minor role in the following battles.

Therefore, Chen Huan usually takes the initiative, severely injuring the target with one blow, and then leaves the rest to the other members of the Soul Hunter Team.

boom!

As Chen Huan released his grip, the arrow, like a streak of light, instantly tore through the air with a sharp sonic boom, shooting straight towards the Ironclad Turtle's thick neck.

When the armored tortoise in the nest realized what was happening, it immediately tucked its head back into its shell.

However, he still couldn't completely dodge the arrow, only managing to avoid the vulnerable area of ​​his neck.

The arrow still struck its head.

puff!

Sparks flew as the arrow collided with its head, but it still pierced through its skull by more than four or five inches before dissipating into starlight after a moment.

Fresh blood gushed from its head.

The armored turtle immediately let out a strange roar, then turned and charged towards the Soul Hunters.

Bang bang bang!

The armored tortoise is enormous, and its weight is astonishing; with each step it takes, the ground seems to tremble slightly.

"Ye Hui, control this big guy. Zhang Long and Zhang Hu, you two block him from the front. Old Li, you're in charge of distracting and harassing him."

Zhang Long and Zhang Hu are defensive soul masters in the Soul Hunter Group, and their martial soul is a shield.

Old Li is an agility-type Soul Master, and his Martial Soul is a cheetah.

Qi's father gave a brief tactical briefing, and then released his martial spirit.

An iron sword suddenly appeared in his hand.

At the same time, three spirit rings—white, yellow, and purple—rose from beneath his feet.

Qi Mingyuan, a Soul Master of Level 32!

The moment he released his martial spirit, two beams of red light shot into his body.

It was Qi's mother who intervened, applying two amplifications to Qi's father.

Qi's father's eyes lit up, and he sped off.

At the same time, his first and second spirit rings lit up.

First Soul Skill, Swift Step, slightly increases speed for five minutes.

The second soul skill, Sharp Sword, enhances the sharpness of the martial soul.

Qi's father was originally a level 32 Soul Master, and with the amplification from Qi's mother, he immediately took the lead and charged to the front to confront the Ironclad Turtle.

At this point, his swordsmanship played a significant role.

While using his agile movements to dodge the Ironclad Turtle's simple attack methods, he wielded his sword, specifically targeting the Ironclad Turtle's vulnerable spots.

The relatively soft parts of the armored tortoise's body are its eyes, neck, limbs, and tail.

The members of the Soul Hunter Team worked together seamlessly, easily subduing the armored tortoise in just one minute, rendering it completely incapable of resistance.

Seeing this, Qi's father called out, "Adao, it's your turn!"

Qi Dao nodded, stepped forward, looked at the dying armored turtle, and without hesitation drew his sword and stabbed it into the turtle's neck.

With a splattering sound, blood gushed out from its neck.

The armored tortoise stopped struggling completely.

At the same time, a yellow spirit ring condensed above the Ironclad Turtle's body.

Looking at the spirit ring before him, a glimmer of anticipation flashed in Qi Dao's eyes.

The reason he chose the Ironclad Turtle as his first spirit ring is that after a spirit master absorbs a spirit ring, some characteristics of the absorbed spirit beast will appear on their spirit.

For example, in the original novel, after Tang San absorbed the Mandragora Serpent's soul ring, his Blue Silver Grass gained the Mandragora Serpent's paralyzing poison. Later, after absorbing the Human-Faced Demon Spider, he also gained the Human-Faced Demon Spider's toxicity.

After mastering the visualization technique, Qi Dao's cultivation speed increased significantly; however, his martial spirit still had inherent flaws.

Although he had noticed over the years that as his connection with Wushuang deepened, about one-tenth of the cracks on the Wushuang sword had healed, the speed was far too slow.

That's why he wanted to use the absorption of soul rings to speed up the process of repairing Wushuang's defects.

The most distinctive feature of the armored tortoise is undoubtedly its shell, which resembles black iron.

Although it was only a spirit beast that was over six hundred years old, its tortoise shell was so tough that even Qi's father, a spirit lord, had difficulty breaking through it.

Qi Daozhen wanted to add the hardness of the Ironclad Turtle's shell to Wushuang.

"Ado, are you ready?" Qi's father asked solemnly.

"Don't worry, I'm confident!"

Qi Dao offered a word of comfort, and then, under the worried gazes of his parents and the watchful eyes of the Soul Hunters, he calmly sat down cross-legged to the side and began absorbing the soul ring.

The scene was very quiet.

The members of the Soul Hunter Squad watched this scene intently.

Whether Qi Dao can succeed is anyone's guess!
