Chapter 41: The Decision to Hunt, the Power of the Mutant Sword Grass! (Please Read On!!!)

Hearing Su Yu's question, Jing Hongchen breathed a sigh of relief.

The fact that Su Yu was able to ask this question at least shows that he is still rational and is in a stage of judgment and weighing the options.

"Xiao, please explain the effects of the Red Dust Protection in detail." The simplified version of Red Dust Protection was called Red Dust Protection by Jing Hongchen.

After carefully recalling the events, Xiao Hongchen began to describe the effects of Hongchen's protection.

"The protection offered by the mortal world is effective."

He spoke as he recalled.

"However, the effect of the mortal world's protection is only a drop in the ocean when it comes to absorbing a ten-thousand-year soul ring."

The protection provided by the Red Dust Shelter only lasts for a maximum of three seconds, and can be triggered a maximum of three times, which is nine seconds.

The peak intensity of the soul vibration of a ten-thousand-year soul ring lasts for at least three minutes.

It cannot be denied that every second can be a crucial factor in creating a miracle, but nine seconds is far too little compared to three minutes. To hold onto that idea is no less than gambling.

Moreover, those three minutes only represent the peak intensity of the soul-shaking impact; after those three minutes, an even longer and equally terrifying mental shock will follow.

Su Yu gleaned a meaning from Xiao Hongchen's words.

give up.

Too dangerous.

Nine seconds

Su Yu nodded, his expression softening considerably.

The Red Dust Protection is a level seven soul tool, and its protective power is definitely sufficient to defend against the soul shock of this mutated sword grass.

Nine seconds, in Xiao Hongchen's words, is far too short compared to three minutes.

However, in Su Yu's mind, nine seconds was enough, even quite long.

He wasn't worried about whether he could hold on for nine seconds; he was worried that he would be killed by the mutated sword grass the moment he absorbed the soul ring.

The mutated sword grass possesses a pure sword intent, and even the mental impact when absorbing a soul ring is more intense, with extremely strong explosive power.

To put it more simply with data, here's how it works.

Other 20,000-year-old soul beasts have a soul vibration intensity of 2, which lasts for three hours. The mutated sword grass's intensity might be 4, 5, or even 6, lasting for one minute, before the intensity changes to 1 and lasts for three hours.

What Su Yu feared most was this irrational outburst.

It would be truly frustrating if Old Yi were killed instantly before he could even wake up.

"Nine seconds should be enough to hold out."

With his spiritual sea having suffered a fatal blow, Elder Yi will definitely awaken immediately.

Once he wakes up, everything can return to the planned path.

Seeing the changes in Su Yu's expression, Jing Hongchen felt heavy-hearted.

"Su Yu, don't be reckless. The soul ring of this 15,000-year-old mutated sword grass is no less difficult to absorb than that of a 20,000-year-old soul ring."

"Master, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Su Yu released his mental energy outwards.

Jing Hongchen's eyes widened.

The same applies to laughing at the mortal world.

"You you you you you"

Xiao Hongchen pointed at Su Yu with a look of utter disbelief.

How can your mental strength be so strong?

This level of strength is even greater than mine, a near-level 5 Soul Master.

Jing Hongchen also had an incredulous expression on his face.

"Could it be that your martial soul mutation also involves mental power?"

Upon hearing Jing Hongchen's doubts, Su Yu simply nodded.

I can't exactly say that a gray bead entered my brain, opened my mental sea, and then I figured out a way to cultivate mental power on my own, can I?

"Given your mental strength, if you fight desperately, you still have a chance to endure it."

Absorbing a spirit ring beyond one's level requires more than just a spirit master's physical attributes and mental strength; it also depends on the spirit master's willpower.

With a strong will, one can force oneself to endure.

While the Sun Moon Empire doesn't have many examples of students being recruited beyond their level, Shrek Academy has plenty. Shrek is difficult to investigate, but not all Shrek students stay at the academy after graduation. The Sun Moon Empire's intelligence network can't be so inadequate that it can't gather any information at all.

"You have a chance to survive the soul shock, but can you withstand the impact of the soul ring's soul power?"

"Don't worry, Master. My teacher gave me ten-thousand-year-old whale glue, and I also took ninth-grade snow lotus. I also take body-tempering pills regularly. Moreover, my third ring is nearly six thousand years old."

Upon hearing Su Yu's words, Jing Hongchen's lips twitched.

I know you're explaining your physical strength to me.

But why do I always feel like slapping you?

Master Kong is really generous. Could it be that he personally hunted down a ten-thousand-year-old whale spirit beast to obtain the ten-thousand-year-old whale glue?

Hunting sea spirit beasts is on a completely different level compared to hunting spirit beasts on land.

Ethnic distribution.

They live in the deep sea.

There are generally powerful individuals of the 100,000-year level or close to that level within the race.

These three points became the biggest hurdles.

In any case, Jing Hongchen didn't have the guts to specifically hunt down ten-thousand-year-old whale-like soul beasts.

There is also the ninth-grade snow lotus.

Jing Hongchen took a deep breath and, instead of continuing to dissuade Su Yu, began to support him.

"Since we're using these resources, we should make sure they achieve the best results."

Jing Hongchen decided to help Su Yu hunt down this 15,000-year-old mutated sword grass.

Now, Su Yu is the one who is most relaxed, both physically and mentally.

Su Yu's decision was clearly a very steady and rational one, but Jing Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen still considered it a life-threatening challenge.

That's true. The limit for a normal Soul Master's fifth Soul Ring is only a little over ten thousand years. Su Yu's fourth Soul Ring requires him to absorb a level higher than his current level, and by such a large margin. Who wouldn't be confused in that situation?

"Martial Soul Possession!" Jing Hongchen released his Martial Soul.

This time, he unleashed his Martial Soul True Form.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Toad True Form!"

"First Soul Skill: Control of Metal!"

"Second Soul Skill, Boiling Metal!"

"Fifth Soul Skill, Metal Formation!"

"Sixth Soul Skill, Metal Suppression!"

In his Martial Soul True Form state, the power of all of Jing Hongchen's soul skills is multiplied.

In an instant, sixteen fixed-position soul-guided launchers sprouted from the giant toad's body.

A heavy aura emanated from the launcher's nozzle.

The suppression of gold!

The sixteen launchers on Jing Hongchen's body activated simultaneously, sending sixteen beams of light hurtling towards the mutated sword grass from different directions.

Sixteen rays of light emitted a dazzling golden glow.

Within the light, a suppressive force descended.

"Is this a soul skill similar to gravity compression?"

The soul skills were perfectly applied to the soul tool.

Even without being targeted, Su Yu felt a strong sense of oppression.

However, at the core of that oppressive force, a white light shone.

A dazzling sword light suddenly appeared.

With the will to cut off all constraints and shatter all suppression.

One sword shatters the heavens!

The suppressive force formed by the sixteen suppressive shells was broken by the mutated sword grass's sword strike.

"This terrifying explosive power may be more difficult to absorb than expected."

Jing Hongchen felt heavy-hearted, but at the same time, she also held onto hope.
