Chapter 96: Ten Thousand Years Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear

In the dense forest, sporadic sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, and the dots of light shine on the ground covered with dead leaves, making the whole forest look a little dreamy. The forest is full of green breath, and the light is sometimes bright and sometimes dim as the leaves sway.

When everyone walked into the forest, it was as if they had stepped into a fantasy world, with birds jumping happily on the branches and a fresh scent filling their noses. In this forest, it seemed as if time had slowed down, as if they had entered a natural place for spiritual practice.

The terrain inside the Star Dou Great Forest is very complicated, and there is no road in the forest at all. The task of clearing the way naturally fell on Ji Juechen. He kept waving the iron sword in his hand, cutting through the thorns that blocked their way forward.

Xiao Yan followed closely behind Ji Juechen, enhancing his vision and hearing to the strongest state, and carefully observed his surroundings.

The vast forest was filled with all kinds of soul beasts. Every once in a while, a soul beast filled with ferocious aura would rush out from the forest, as if wanting to attack Xiao Yan and the others. Whenever these soul beasts approached the team within a thousand meters, they would be frightened and retreat by the aura simulated by Xiao Yan.

Six figures were walking slowly on the lush green path in the forest. The black-robed young man in front was holding a green blue silver grass in his mouth. He hugged the back of his head with his arms, letting the sunlight pouring down from the sky shine on his body through the gaps in the leaves, looking leisurely.

"Brother Yanxiao, there is something I want to ask you." At this moment, Ji Juechen suddenly turned around in front of the black-robed young man and said lightly.

Chewing the bitter blue silver grass root, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and said, "Senior, feel free to ask me anything."

Ji Juechen hesitated for a moment, but then he chose to speak: "Brother Yanxiao, the ruler technique you used to defeat the White Tiger Soul Emperor with the strength of a great soul master a few days ago does not seem to be a soul skill. Could it be a soul bone skill?"

"Then I thought about it carefully, and I felt that the one foot didn't seem like a soul bone skill, but rather a self-created soul skill... I wonder if I guessed it right?"

"Oh? You can actually tell that the skill I'm using is not a spirit ring or a spirit bone skill?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and looked at Ji Juechen in disbelief. Ever since he used the Flame-Dividing Wave Ruler, many people thought that it was a hundred thousand year spirit bone skill.

Ji Juechen raised the iron sword in his hand and smiled at Xiao Yan, saying, "Brother Yan Xiao, your black ruler is somewhat similar to the iron sword in my hand. I have been immersed in swordsmanship over the years, so I can naturally see that the ruler technique should be a self-created soul skill, not a soul ring or soul bone skill. But what I can't understand is, with your strength as a great soul master, why can you use your self-created soul skill to such a great power?"

"When your soul power reaches my current level in the future, if you use that ruler technique again, I estimate that even Titled Douluo below level 95 will not be able to handle it."

Touching his nose, Xiao Yan saw that Ji Juechen was also a down-to-earth person, so he did not hide anything and said, "My Ruler Technique was not created by me, but was taught to me by a hermit. I see that Brother Ji seems to be very proficient in sword skills. If there is a chance in the future, I can ask that hermit for some sword skills and then pass them on to you."

"I'm serious." Hearing this, Ji Juechen was overjoyed. He grabbed Xiao Yan's shoulders and said excitedly, "Brother Yan Xiao, if you can get sword skills for me, I, Ji Juechen, will definitely follow your lead."

Although Ji Juechen is obsessed with using the sword, he is definitely not a fool. The power of the ruler technique displayed by Xiao Yan alone is so enormous. If the latter really seeks sword skills for himself, it will definitely be comparable to a hundred thousand year soul skill.

"Hahaha." Xiao Yan chuckled and shook his head, then raised his head and looked forward, saying in a deep voice: "I don't need you to follow my lead. I have an enemy in the Xingluo Empire. When I want revenge, you can come with me and lend a hand."

"Oh? Enemy, who is it?" Ji Juechen frowned slightly and said.

Turning his head, Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he said in a cold voice: "Dai Hao, the Duke of White Tiger. Three years later, I will go to the Duke of White Tiger's mansion. If the situation allows, you can go to Xingluo City with me."

The White Tiger Duke's Mansion is located in Xingluo City. If Xiao Yan wants to go there to collect debts, he will inevitably be blocked by various forces. As the saying goes, two fists are no match for four hands. It is also necessary to recruit troops in advance to prevent unnecessary troubles from arising.

"Okay, it's a deal. When you go, call me." Nodding, Ji Juechen said loudly without any hesitation.

At this moment, Meng Hongchen came jumping behind Xiao Yan and patted his left shoulder. Just as Xiao Yan was about to turn around, she moved to his right and snorted, "What are you guys talking about?"

"Yanxiao, it's been so long, have you found a suitable soul beast?"

Xiao Yan turned around and looked at Meng Hongchen, shaking his head and said, "Not yet."

"Oh...it's really troublesome to find soul beasts. If grandpa can one day create a soul guide that can completely replace the soul rings of soul masters, then we won't have to look for soul beasts everywhere like this." Meng Hongchen said casually with a pout.

"Use soul guides to completely replace soul rings?" Xiao Yan was slightly stunned by Meng Hongchen's casual words. He seemed to have something in mind. He stared at the former with a strange expression and muttered to himself.

"What? Is there something wrong with what I said? Humans have been encroaching on the living space of soul beasts over the years, and we increase our soul rings by killing them. More and more high-level soul beasts are hunted by us, just like you all have thousand-year soul rings on your bodies now, which only appear after soul beasts have practiced for a thousand years. And the number of these high-level soul beasts is also limited!"

"Ten thousand years ago, the overall strength of soul beasts on the continent was still greater than that of us humans. However, today, ten thousand years later, I can say with certainty that the overall strength of soul beasts can no longer be compared to that of ten thousand years ago. This is because too many high-level soul beasts have become soul rings for us humans. So, what will happen in another ten thousand years? What will the continent become? Can we still hunt soul beasts in the soul beast forest as we do? I can give you a definite answer. In another ten thousand years, even ten-year soul rings will become a luxury. The final destination of soul beasts can only be to be kept in captivity by us humans and become complete vassals."

"By that time, it is very likely that all soul masters will only be able to attach spirit rings of ten years to themselves. Even hundred-year spirit rings may become out of reach. By that time, what will we rely on to improve our strength? If we can create a soul guide that can replace spirit rings, then the problem of the exhaustion of soul beast resources can be solved from the root."

Meng Hongchen's casual words also made Xiao Yan somewhat deafened. Although he had also thought about letting the people here practice Dou Qi, due to the suppression of the plane rules, even he now had to rely on hunting soul beasts to break through the soul power level, and then further break through the constraints of Dou Qi practice.

If an energy soul guide that can replace the soul ring can be created, then many problems can be solved before breaking the rules of the plane. Thinking is worse than action. After obtaining the soul ring and returning to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy, Xiao Yan is ready to start researching this type of soul guide, as well as some of the things he dreams about - such as airplanes, missiles, tanks...

With Xiao Yan's spiritual detection sharing and simulation of two powerful soul skills that could be called divine skills, the few of them did not encounter any attacks from soul beasts until they reached the mixed area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest.

After entering the mixed zone, Xiao Yan's face became much more serious. Although he had a simulated soul skill that could scare away some ten thousand year soul beasts with his powerful aura, he could not guarantee that there were any powerful ten thousand year soul beasts that were not afraid of his simulated aura. This was the habitat of ten thousand year soul beasts. Ten thousand year soul beasts were quite terrifying, and the weakest one could be compared to a Soul King, and was definitely not comparable to the so-called thousand year soul beasts.

In fact, soul beasts that are ten thousand years old already possess intelligence that is not much inferior to that of humans. This allows them to not only have powerful combat power but also strategies when fighting. For example, wolf soul beasts are very good at using their brains.

When they reach the ten thousand year level, all soul beasts will undergo their first major transformation. This transformation is reflected in all aspects. For the same race, there is a huge gap between a soul beast that has just broken through ten thousand years and a soul beast that is nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years old. They are not at the same level at all.

Of course, this refers to the same race. It is different between different races. For example, a thousand-year-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear has no problem killing a ten-thousand-year-old Mandrake Snake. This involves another aspect, the level difference of soul beasts.

The bloodlines of some soul beasts are very strong, and a thousand years of cultivation is comparable to that of a ten-thousand-year soul beast.

But in general, ten thousand years is the threshold for the first transformation of almost all soul beasts, and as for the second transformation, it is at the level of one hundred thousand years.

After entering the mixed area, the frequency of seeing soul beasts became lower. It was not like before, where you could see a weak soul beast after walking a few steps.

Each of the ten thousand year old soul beasts has its own territory. Xiao Yan discovered two ten thousand year old soul beasts through spiritual detection along the way, but he did not disturb them because they were not soul beasts with spiritual attributes.

Xiao Yan and his companions did not disturb them, and the two soul beasts did not take the initiative to attack. It is true that soul beasts have a strong sense of territory, but they are also very sensitive.

Especially the ten thousand year soul beasts, their ability to sense crisis is much stronger than soul masters of the same level. They clearly feel the aura transmitted from Xiao Yan through simulation. That is definitely an existence that cannot be provoked, otherwise there is only one result, and that is death!

In this case, Xiao Yan and the others did not show any malice, so they would not attack. They were not stupid, and the wisdom of ten thousand year soul beasts was not much lower than that of ordinary humans. A few more hours passed, and they still hadn't found a suitable soul beast.

As they continued walking forward, they saw a huge beehive appear right in front of them. From time to time, yellow honey dripped from it and splashed all over the ground. Immediately, a strong and refreshing fragrance emanated from the air.

"Honey from thousand-year-old green yellow bees?" Ji Juechen, who was walking in the front, recognized the origin of the beehive in front of him at a glance. He licked his lips, his figure flashed, and he swung the iron sword in his hand fiercely, splitting the beehive in half in an instant. The sharp sword energy directly turned the green yellow bees in it into powder.

Walking forward, Ji Juechen bent down to pick up the beehive on the ground, then took out a jade bowl from the soul guide and began to pour the bright yellow honey into the bowl. The honey of the thousand-year-old green yellow bee can be regarded as a good treasure from heaven and earth.

Then, Ji Juechen handed a bowl to Xiao Yan and said, "Brother Yan Xiao, this honey is good stuff, drink some quickly."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan did not hesitate to take the jade bowl and took a sip. It was very sweet, with a strong but not pungent fragrance. Once it entered the mouth, it instantly spread to the entire mouth, with a pure natural scent.

But at this moment, a noise suddenly came from not far away.

"It seems that a soul beast is coming." Xiao Yan's spiritual detection sharing was instantly activated, and they saw a five-meter-tall bear with dark golden hair all over its body appear in the eyes of the two in the jungle not far away. Its body was very strong, especially the pair of sharp claws in its hands, which flashed a dazzling cold light. The huge head nodded lightly, as if it was sniffing something.

"It's actually a ten thousand year old Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear." With a slight frown, Xiao Yan recognized the soul beast standing on the top of the pyramid at a glance. The long and sharp claws in its hands are the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear's most powerful attack method, also known as the Dark Gold Terror Claw. It is powerful enough to tear a dragon apart alive.

What this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear loves most in his life is to eat honey, especially the honey produced by the best soul beasts. That is the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's favorite thing.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear usually likes to dig into the hives of bee soul beasts and steal honey. Sometimes, even if it is discovered by the bee soul beast and is covered in big bites, it still does not change its original intention and continues to behave in the same way. You can imagine how much they love honey.

The honey of the Azure Wasp is also a relatively special type among the honeys produced by many bee-like soul beasts. It has a long-lasting fragrance and is sweet but not greasy. It is easy to imagine how attractive this honey is to the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to release a simulated soul skill to drive away the ten thousand year old dark gold terror claw bear, his spiritual detection sharing detected another figure. It was a golden stream of light, and it was galloping in the jungle like a small sun.

"A ten thousand year old soul beast with spiritual attributes? It seems just right to be used as my third soul ring." In Xiao Yan's spiritual detection, he just felt a flash of light, and a soul beast covered with golden hair appeared not far away.

In order to prevent the soul beast from being scared away, Xiao Yan gave up the release of simulated soul skills. After pondering for a moment, a plan came to his mind...
