Chapter 14 - Chapter 14: Ice Soul!

  Although I don't know what kind of soul beast this demon flower is.

  But its powerful strength cannot be faked.

  Just now, it showed a powerful ice attribute, and it was able to freeze such a large Gaoling yak into an ice sculpture in an instant.

  Its vines have such a strong penetrating ability, and its ice-like appearance is so hard.

  In addition to the terrifying freezing ability, its ice attribute is much stronger than Ling.

  It also has the ability to control the spirit of the yak, and its spiritual attribute is not weak.

  It seems that it uses that strange fragrance to attract soul beasts to approach and finally kill them.

  Just now, Ding Quan felt its soul power fluctuations, which Ling can absorb. The age is about 600 years.

  Seeing that there is a piece of snow-white under the two soul rings, without any abnormality, it is hard to imagine that there is such a terrifying man-eating demon flower under it.

  This may also be the reason why it was not discovered in such a place.

  I think it should hide instantly after hunting.

  It is also possible that it sensed the team of Gaoling yaks and then hunted.

  Now its position is exposed. Ding Quan has a lot of experience in dealing with this kind of plant soul beast that cannot move.

  It was hidden in the snow more than two meters deep, and the vines were not long enough, otherwise it would not have attracted the Gaoling Yak to the root to hunt.

  Looking at the sun, it was not going to snow, it was time to do something big!

  Ding Quan told the two of them his plan, and their eyes suddenly lit up.

  The two took out their storage bags, and Ding Quan also sorted out the storage soul guide, and went to the vicinity of the two soul rings that had not yet dissipated.

  After confirming the exact location of the demon flower and the length of its vines, the few people directly used the storage soul guide to move the snow around it.

  Before the sun set, they dug a circle with a width of more than three meters and a radius of six or seven meters around the demon flower.

  Fortunately, there was a storage soul guide, otherwise it would be really difficult to do it.

  Ding Quan and the others looked at the pile of snow in front of them and gestured to Ling.

  Ling directly threw a small bucket of kerosene directly on the snow just above the demon flower, and also threw a burning flint.

  Boom~

  A fierce fire burned here, and the snow began to melt.

  The demon flower hidden in the snow had already discovered something was wrong, but it was not within its attack range, so it had been holding back.

  As the snow melted, it could not wait any longer.

  The snow shook, and the demon flower shook off the snow on its body, revealing its true appearance.

  This was a three-meter-tall flower without branches and leaves, with many white bones entwined on the blood-red vines.

  The bodies of the two yaks were still there as ice sculptures, but the ground where the vines had pierced had become a bloody hole.

  Some of the flesh and blood had disappeared, and it seemed that it had been digested by the demon flower.

  It shook off the snow on its body, and although it put out the fire, its body was completely exposed.

  Ding Quan threw a bucket of kerosene directly on the root vines.

  "Ling!" "

  Understood!" Ling threw another flint over, and this time the demon flower caught fire directly.

  It had ice properties after all, and instantly formed ice on the vines to suppress the fire.

  However, the fire was so strong that the ice quickly melted and burned on the kerosene, making the fire even more fierce.

  Ling was still throwing kerosene on it.

  Ding Quan had prepared a lot of kerosene before coming to the Luoxue Mountains. It was very important in this cold mountain range.

  After a while, the flower wilts. Sure enough, although this demon flower has amazing freezing ability, it needs vines to work.

  Seeing this demon flower becoming more and more wilted, Ding Quan and his friends became more vigilant.

  Now it only uses its freezing ability, and its mental ability has not yet been demonstrated.

  Sure enough, under the vigilant gaze of several people, the flower bud opened instantly, and a strange mental wave gushed out instantly. Ding Quan felt his mind shake and reacted instantly.

  Similar to mental control methods?

  Ding Quan glanced at Wei'er, who had recovered. Ling was not affected like himself.

  Ling threw another bottle of kerosene over, and the fire that had started to be weak became strong again.

  While several people were waiting, ten minutes later, an extremely bright yellow soul ring appeared above this demon flower.

  It died very aggrievedly, and it didn't touch Ding Quan and his friends until it died.

  "Ling, just absorb the spirit ring."

  "Okay." The few people put out the fire, and looking at the melting snow around, Ling directly released his martial soul, forming an ice house on the spot, and then used his soul power to pull the spirit ring.

  "You know what spirit skills are needed, right?"

  "Of course I know, skills that increase your own attributes or abilities, and enhance the strength of your martial soul." Ling said as he looked at the extremely bright spirit ring.

  Ding Quan told the two about the effects of his spirit skills, and they were both very surprised.

  Although this kind of passive ability has no means of attack, it greatly enhances the strength of the martial soul. The means of attack depends on how to use it.

  Several people are confident in themselves, and they can easily defeat others even without attack spirit skills.

  It is best to obtain amplification spirit skills or functional spirit skills for the first few spirit skills, as such skills will never be eliminated.

  Although you may lack attack capabilities in the early stage, you can attack or defend by relying on your own understanding of the development of the martial soul.

  If you obtain attack or defense spirit skills in the early stage, once you reach a certain level, the spirit skills with low years will be dispensable, wasting spirit rings in vain.

  There is also a kind of most useless ability that can be used as long as you master the martial soul.

  It is similar to the entanglement of vine martial spirits, or weaving it into a cage, fire attribute martial spirits spraying fire, water attribute spirit masters spraying water, etc.

  This kind of thing that can be done without soul skills and only requires mastering the martial spirit is simply a waste of a soul ring.

  Seeing Ling sitting cross-legged, Ding Quan and Wei'er guarded her.

  The soul beasts here are not very powerful, so it is still safe.

  Ding Quan saw that Ling's face changed a few times when absorbing the soul ring, but it was not a big deal

  . It seems that the soul power impact has passed this level. The rest is not a big problem.

  Late at night, a bright moon appeared in the sky.

  In Wei'er's surprised eyes, an extremely bright yellow soul ring fell steadily on Ling's snow lotus martial spirit.

  A hint of blood appeared on the petals in the middle of her Snow Lotus Martial Spirit.

  Ding Quan was relieved to see that nothing unexpected had happened.

  Looking at this bright yellow soul ring, he hoped that Ling's soul skill would be effective. Considering the ability of the demon flower, it would not be bad.

  "Quan, I succeeded!" Ling opened his eyes and his face was full of joy.

  Ding Quan was also shocked to see Ling standing up. Ling, who was originally shorter than him, was actually a little taller than him.

  "My clothes, um, have become smaller?" Ling felt a little restrained and saw that Ding Quan seemed to be a little shorter.

  "It's Ling, your body has become taller after absorbing the soul ring." Ding Quan walked in front of Ling and compared their heights.

  "Is that so?" Ling moved a little, fortunately there was no effect.

  "Ling'er, judging from your appearance just now, your soul skills are pretty good."

  "Well, my first soul skill is called Ice Soul. The effect of this soul skill passively amplifies my ice and spiritual attributes by 30%. It actively speeds up my ice generation speed and makes the ice extremely hard."

  "And my soul power is level fourteen, almost level fifteen." Ling said happily. What Ding Quan said before about the soul master's spiritual will being able to affect the martial soul, and even the soul skills are true.   

  It seems to be true. Even if two people have the same martial soul, absorbing the soul ring produced by the same soul beast will produce different soul skills.

  This is very common in those families.

  To obtain the amplification soul skills, the soul beast cannot be weak, otherwise it will not be able to strengthen the martial soul.

  "Level 14." Ding Quan was not surprised. The two sisters didn't know how long they stayed at level 10. They had eaten so much whale glue recently, and they also had the soul power of a 600-year soul ring. This level was a bit low in Ding Quan's opinion.

  The soul skill effect was beyond Ding Quan's expectations, passive skills.

  "Quan, my sister's soul power level has exceeded yours, and I will also exceed yours when I absorb soul rings." Wei'er said with a smile.

  "It's okay, the stronger you are, the better." Ding Quan didn't care. Even if the soul power of the two of them exceeded his own, Ding Quan was confident that he could defeat them, even if the two of them joined forces.

  Ding Quan also felt that he could break through level 14 recently, and he also took some of the ten thousand year whale glue.

  "Quan, my martial soul has changed." Ling looked at the blood color in the petals of the martial soul snow lotus and was a little confused, but it was a good thing.

  "What effect does it have?" This unknown demon flower is not simple to make martial souls change significantly.

  "It can make my ice attribute attached with mental power. If I hit them, I can erode their spirit and slow down their reaction speed. Now my mental power is too weak to use it all the time." Ling smiled with some pride.

  "No wonder your soul skill is called Ice Soul. It turns out that it can attack mental power. If you can't use it all the time, then strengthen your mental power with the next soul ring." Ling's ability can be regarded as another passive.

  The ice attribute is extremely cold. The speed of people frozen by ice will be slowed down. Now the reaction speed is also slowed down, which will make the enemy even more uncomfortable.

  "Then I can focus on improving my spirit power for my next spirit ring, but it's hard to find spirit beasts with spirit attributes."

  "Don't worry, I already have a clear goal for your next spirit ring."

  "What goal?"

  "Thousand-year ice silkworm!"

  "Thousand-year ice silkworm? Quan, this kind of spirit beast seems very weak." Several people were not surprised that the second spirit ring absorbed the thousand-year spirit ring. They knew it when they took whale glue.

  Now the increase in physical strength is real.

  "Yes, this kind of spirit beast is indeed very weak, but its spirit attribute is extremely powerful. After you obtain its spirit ring, you can greatly improve your spirit power and gain a simulation skill that can disguise yourself."

  "Disguise?"

  "You can let others see what you want them to see, of course, you can also make others unable to see you, and you can also disguise the color of the spirit ring, so that people don't have to discover that the second spirit ring is a thousand years old."

  "Functional spirit skill, still has such an effect." Ling's eyes lit up. Although such a skill lacks attack power, it can avoid a lot of trouble.

  This kind of spirit beast also has ice attributes and spirit attributes, which is very compatible with him.

  Although it has no attack power, the improvement of spirit power will enhance the strength of his martial spirit.

  It is not a plant-type soul beast, which is a disadvantage, but the high age can make up for it.

  "Quan, what about me?" Wei'er saw that the two had confirmed their second soul skills, but her first soul ring was still not there.

  "You should get the first soul ring first, and then make a decision. I hope to find the target soul beast soon."

  The strength of several people is too low to walk around freely on this mountain.

  Although there is a compound bow, there is still a risk.

  After checking the demon flower, nothing valuable was found. Ding Quan thought that such a powerful soul beast would have soul bones, it seems that he thought too much.

  After a good start, luck was not good. After more than a month, Ding Quan and his friends did not find a suitable tiger soul beast.

  They also encountered several soul hunting teams, but they all avoided them from a distance.

  Several people were very alert and immediately avoided them if something was wrong. They

  did not dare to go deeper, and they had already found several thousand-year-old soul beasts.

  Although they encountered several tigers, their age was too low, the highest of which was only about 500 years old, so Ding Quan and his friends did not hunt it.

  There was also a thousand-year-old white bear on the ice field that rushed towards the group. After Weier shot an arrow through it, it fled in a panic.

  It died in the end. The compound bow directly destroyed its organs. The group still caught up with it and put it in the storage bag as food.

  I have a more accurate understanding of the power of the compound bow.

  Even bear-like soul beasts with super thick skin and flesh can't stand it.

  These days, Ding Quan and his group have been running to places with strong winds. As the saying goes, clouds follow dragons and winds follow tigers.

  Finally, they heard a tiger roar accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder in the distance while searching.

  Several people rushed in the direction of the tiger roar and found it.

  Looking at the golden tiger that fell to the ground and fell asleep in the snow not far away, Ding Quan and the two sisters looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

  This is already the range of activities of thousand-year-old soul beasts. If they don't find a tiger soul beast of the right age, they dare not go deeper again.

  This is a wind and thunder tiger. If it hadn't made a tiger roar before, they really wouldn't have found it.

  "It's nearly five meters long, about 1.5 meters tall at the shoulder, a hundred-year-old soul beast, with nearly seven layers of spots on its nose. It's a wind-thunder tiger that's more than six hundred years old, less than seven hundred years old."

  Ding Quan took a telescope made of ice blocks made by Ling and looked at the sleeping tiger from a distance.

  "Weier's physical fitness has always been much better than mine, so there's no problem absorbing it." Ling looked at the lightning that appeared on the tiger.

  "This is it, I'm fine." Wei'er smiled.

  "Well, Wei'er's soul power is extremely masculine and her physique is strong. The wind-thunder tiger has a strong physique. Except for not being able to fly, it has no shortcomings in all aspects. The thunder it possesses is the most domineering and fierce attribute, which is suitable for Wei'er." Ding Quan touched Wei'er's head.

  "It's just perfect." After Wei'er finished speaking, she took out a compound bow, and Ding Quan and others also aimed their compound bows at the wind-thunder tiger that was sleeping on the snow.

  Tigers are pure yang bodies and are not afraid of severe cold.

  Relying on their status as top predators, lying down here and resting casually is indeed too lazy.

  About fifty meters away from the tiger, it found that the men were weaklings, and seemed to be not hungry after having just eaten. It shook its body and lay down on the snow again.

  Go! The three men nodded fiercely, and then three arrows flew out in an instant.

  *3

  The wind and thunder tiger noticed the sound and was about to get up, but the three arrows had already arrived in front of it.

  "Ouch~!*?" The wind and thunder tiger screamed in pain.

  The arrows shot by Ding Quan and Ling instantly shot into its stomach, while Wei'er's arrow directly pierced its head.

  Seeing that Wei'er's arrow did not penetrate the brain of the Wind and Thunder Tiger, it was worthy of being a Wind and Thunder Tiger.

  The hardness of the skull is comparable to some precious metals.

  This arrow still pierced its brain. Seeing the electric snakes surging on its body, a gust of wind was set off around it.

  The snow was blown up to a height of dozens of meters, and the surrounding trees were shocked by a burst of electricity, emitting a burst of fire.

  Relying on the instinct of survival, it ran away. It was not very fast to dart left and right.

  It seemed that its brain had been damaged and its sense of direction had been lost. Death was only a moment away.

  "Wei'er, continue." Ding Quan listened to the roar that had been coming out all the time. This sound could be transmitted too far.

  "Okay!" Wei'er took out an arrow and aimed at it again.

  This arrow hit it again. After watching it struggle for a few minutes, it fell to the ground completely and did not move.

  Weier took out the storage bag, came to the dying Wind-Thunder Tiger, and put it directly in.

  Then the few people packed up and left quickly.

  There are many thousand-year-old soul beasts here, and the soul hunters may be more dangerous than the soul beasts.

  The screams of the tiger just now must have been heard far away, and it might cause trouble.

  More than 20 minutes later, a soul hunting team came here, and many trees around were still smoking.

  After looking around and finding no signs of anyone leaving, the few people looked at each other.
