Chapter 97 Hunting the Three-Eyed Golden Ni?
In the densely covered forest of tall trees, lush green branches spread out like a giant spider web, covering the entire forest. Under the cover of these giant trees, even the sunlight from the sky has difficulty pouring in.

Therefore, the light in the forest looks a little dim.

The sunlight shone through the gaps between the dense branches, turning into beams of light that projected down, finally illuminating Xiao Yan and the other six people who were walking in the forest.

Suddenly, Xiao Yan stopped moving forward and frowned slightly.

"What's wrong?" Meng Hongchen knew that Xiao Yan's sudden stop was definitely not without reason, but there seemed to be nothing appearing within the range of her spiritual detection. After a while, she finally discovered the huge figure.

"Dark...Golden Terror Claw Bear?" Meng Hongchen said in a trembling voice with his eyes slightly narrowed.

"There is murderous intent." Ji Juechen shouted in a low voice, his face changed, and he quickly drew out the iron sword in his hand, and at the same time used his body to block everyone behind him.

"Roar--" An extremely high-pitched bear roar sounded in the forest. Two big trees not far away were pulled apart, and then an extremely tall figure walked out of them. It was a giant bear with dark golden hair all over its body. It was more than three meters tall, and its eyes were empty of any emotion, full of indifference.

The arms of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear are particularly thick, and its shoulders are broad and strong like city walls. At the front ends of its two thick arms are extremely sharp dark gold claws, and the length of the claws alone is more than one meter.

A pair of sturdy arms stretched out, and the sharp claws could make a slight hissing sound just by sliding through the air along with its body.

With his eyes fixed on the honey in everyone's hands, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear licked his lips with his tongue, drooling all over the floor. His yellow eyes were full of greed, and from time to time he roared at Xiao Yan and the others.

The next moment, a powerful aura of coercion appeared instantly. This aura was filled with a sharp metallic aura, causing everyone's faces to twitch slightly.

"It's actually a ten thousand year old Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear..." Looking at the giant bear that suddenly appeared not far away, Ji Juechen's face changed slightly, and he murmured: "The Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear is a top existence in the entire soul beast world. According to legend, this guy's cultivation after ten thousand years is almost abnormal. Even Soul Douluo may find it difficult to compete with it. It seems that there is some trouble today."

Hearing this, Nana and Meng Hongchen did not say anything, but pursed their lips.

At this moment, Xiao Yan turned around and looked at his companions behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Later, if this big guy attacks us, Brother Ji, you are the strongest and stand in the front, and Brother Ma and I will protect you on both sides."

"Yeah." Ji Juechen nodded and walked to the front with the iron sword in his hand. At this moment, his eyes were flashing with excitement. For a sword fanatic, fighting is equal to practicing sword intent, and the will to fight has been integrated into his blood.

Xiao Yan then said to the others, “Nana, Meng Hongchen, Xiao Hongchen, you guys stay behind to support us. Once you get a chance, use your soul guides to attack the fatal parts of this Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear. Don’t hold back.”

As Xiao Yan finished speaking, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear roared again, and the next moment, it rushed directly towards him. It seemed that its purpose was only to get the honey on Xiao Yan and the others.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear stomped its paw on the ground so hard that the entire forest seemed to tremble slightly. Its majestic body, with the help of a powerful thrust, rushed into the air like a golden cannonball at lightning speed.

In the blink of an eye, it appeared in front of Ji Juechen who was standing in the front. It clenched its claws, and the sharp energy quickly condensed in its palm, forming a golden claw more than half a foot long in an instant.

The golden claws swung suddenly and grabbed straight towards Ji Juechen's chest. The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's agility and speed, which was in no way consistent with its huge body, was obviously beyond Ji Juechen's expectations. However, the latter was not a weakling with no combat experience. In surprise, he also swung the iron sword in his hand fiercely.

"laugh!"

The iron sword tore through the air, making a sharp hissing sound.

"boom!"

The next second, the iron sword and the golden claws collided fiercely, and a huge roar suddenly erupted.

Immediately, Ji Juechen was seen retreating rapidly, and almost all the trees that his body touched along the way were cut in half. After crashing into several large trees, his body slowly stopped.

"Hahaha, so satisfying. You are worthy of being the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. Come again!" Raising his face and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Ji Juechen was not angry but happy. He did not care about the injuries in his body. He tightly grasped the iron sword in his hand again like a madman and rushed towards the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. The six soul rings on his body shone brightly.

Ji Juechen was known as a sword maniac and was also obsessed with fighting. A few days ago, after seeing Xiao Yan perform the Flame-Splitting Waves Ruler, he had originally planned to go find Xiao Yan to spar with him. However, he was warned by Jing Hongchen not to cause trouble for the latter.

After all, the battle had just ended, and both Xiao Yan and Ji Juechen were exhausted. What they were afraid of was that no matter who of them was injured, it would be a loss for Mingde Hall.

Ji Juechen had been itching to fight these past few days. Now that he had come to the Star Dou Great Forest and met the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, the fighting spirit in his heart was ignited again, and he was determined to compete with it.

Soon, the rest of the people also joined the team. In the forest, several figures flashed quickly, and the formation they formed trapped the huge golden figure in the center. The fierce soul skills were like free of charge, smashing hard on the body of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.

Xiao Yan did not use the simulation skill to drive away the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear at that moment. That was because he discovered a ten thousand year old spirit beast with spiritual attributes nearby through spiritual detection sharing. In order to prevent scaring away this ten thousand year old spirit beast, he gave up using the simulation soul skill to release the aura of a hundred thousand year old spirit beast.

As time went by, the battle between the two sides became more and more intense. The messy boulders in the forest were almost all shattered in the aftermath of the battle. On the ground, cracks spread out from the battle site like spider webs.

At the same time, the spiritual soul beast with golden hair all over its body was getting closer and closer to the position of Xiao Yan and others. It seemed to be full of curiosity about everything that happened here. At the same time, it also wanted to eat this Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.

"Brother Ji, I found a spirit beast that is suitable for my third spirit ring. You guys hold on for a while. To prevent it from running away, I will go and kill it first and come back to help you." Xiao Yan frowned slightly, noticing that the spirit beast was getting closer and closer to him, and he made a decision immediately. "Well, don't worry, leave it to me." Ji Juechen shouted in a deep voice, holding the black iron sword tightly in his hand, and then his sixth spirit ring lit up.

"Sword Intentions - Slay the Dragon!"

The iron sword in his hand shook slightly, and the black soul power quickly flowed into the sword along Ji Juechen's palm. With the influx of surging soul power, the black iron sword suddenly became looming, and its volume suddenly increased several times. Even the surrounding space began to fluctuate at this moment.

Feeling the terrifying energy erupting from the black sword, Ma Rulong and the others understood that Ji Juechen was using his best skills. They all nodded and attacked more fiercely, trying to restrain the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear and prevent it from interrupting the concentration of the latter's soul skills.

"cut!"

A cold shout suddenly sounded from Ji Juechen's mouth, and as the shout fell, everyone only felt that the wind flowing in the forest seemed to suddenly solidify, and then, the wind grew stronger, and an extremely strong force quickly condensed on the black sword in his hand. In just a blink of an eye, the power had gathered.

"call out!"

An extremely powerful black sword energy shot out from the black sword in Ji Juechen's hand, but from its rough model, it could still be vaguely recognized that it was a black long sword condensed by energy. However, the speed of this long sword was terrifyingly fast, and judging from the black energy fluctuating on its surface, it seemed to be condensed by soul power, and then it slashed fiercely towards the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.

At the same time, Xiao Yan stepped lightly on the ground, and the flying soul guide behind him ejected. A golden light flashed in his eyes, and mental detection and soul power were activated at the same time, scanning the surroundings. The whole person was like a black meteor, flying towards the location of the spiritual soul beast.

In just a moment, Xiao Yan found the location of this spiritual soul beast through mental detection and soul scanning, but in his memory, he seemed to have never seen this kind of soul beast in any ancient book.

It was a soul beast covered with golden hair, over three meters long and eight feet tall, and looked like a lion. Its four claws were like dragons, and under each dragon claw there was a ball of golden flame. In addition to its normal two eyes, it actually had a third eye, and this third eye had a vertical pupil.

The two normal eyes were shining with gold, but the vertical pupil was red, with a bit of a strange red color.

With a slight arc on his lips, Xiao Yan touched his nose. He seemed to be very satisfied with this ten thousand year old spiritual beast. Just when he wanted to use Yao Lao's power to hunt it down, the panicked voice of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm rang out in the sea of ​​spirit: "Xiao Yan, don't! You can't kill it. If you kill it, the entire Xingdou Great Forest will riot. Then, we will be in trouble."

"What do you mean?" Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm explained: "This soul beast is the emperor beast of the Xingdou Great Forest. Its name is Three-Eyed Golden Ni. It possesses the ultimate fire and ultimate light attributes. Even though it has only been cultivated for more than 10,000 years, it can compete with ordinary 100,000-year soul beasts. With your current strength, you can't absorb its soul ring at all."

"Even if you can absorb its spirit ring, once you kill it, all the fierce beasts in the entire Xingdou Great Forest will come to hunt you down. I don't want to die."

"The emperor's auspicious beast?" Xiao Yan still seemed a little confused and muttered to himself.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm continued, "The three-eyed golden lion is an ancient auspicious beast. In ancient times, we soul beasts ruled the continent. Occasionally, an auspicious beast would appear and be revered as an emperor. Therefore, the auspicious beast is also called the emperor auspicious beast. In the entire continent, there will never be two auspicious beasts at the same time. In other words, the three-eyed golden lion you just saw should be the only auspicious beast on the continent. No matter how powerful a soul beast is, it can only worship it respectfully and will never hurt it. The soul beast chosen by it as food will never dare to resist except to run away."

"What is an auspicious beast? It's an auspicious beast. In soul beast habitats where there are auspicious beasts, all soul beasts grow twice as fast as normal. The chance of a hundred thousand year soul beasts breaking through after reaching a bottleneck is doubled. As long as there is a place where it exists, a soul beast that cultivates for five hundred years can have the cultivation of a thousand years."

"If we touch this auspicious beast, all the fierce beasts in the Xingdou Great Forest will probably come out immediately to hunt us down."

"I never thought that there would be such a soul beast in this Star Dou Great Forest. In this case, it seems that I can only change to a soul beast with spiritual attributes to be my third soul ring." Hearing Tianmeng Bingcan's words, Xiao Yan was immediately surprised in his heart.

"Wait." Yao Lao's voice sounded faintly.

“Teacher, you don’t want me to hunt this auspicious imperial beast, do you? You should have heard it just now. If we hunt it, we will probably be hunted down by the ferocious beasts in the entire Star Dou Great Forest. I don’t want to get into trouble.” Xiao Yan shook his head.

Yao Lao said unhappily, "Who said I wanted you to hunt it? Don't you realize that this soul beast has a kind of ultimate fire? Although this golden flame is not as good as the strange fire, it can barely be regarded as a good beast fire."

"Just grab it and extract a wisp of the original fire."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan carefully suppressed his breath and looked towards the three-eyed Jin Ni. He found that there was indeed a ball of golden flame under his feet. Wasn't this golden flame the ultimate fire that Tianmeng Bingcan had just mentioned? It was also the beast fire mentioned by Yao Lao...

"What? Are you moved?" Yao Lao's laughter sounded in Xiao Yan's heart.

"Hehe, how can I not be tempted? I need beast fire to evolve the Burning Technique. In this case, teacher, let's do it. As long as we don't hurt its life and take some of the original fire, I don't think we will be hunted down by the ferocious beasts in this Star Dou Great Forest, right?" As he spoke, Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly flashed with a white light, and the aura of his whole body suddenly surged, and the terrifying soul pressure suddenly swept out.

The next second, Xiao Yan's figure flashed, and he flapped his wings behind him, like a roc, and rushed towards the three-eyed golden Ni. However, at this moment, a dark red figure came from behind the three-eyed golden Ni and pounced towards Xiao Yan.
