8: Soul Hunting, First Soul Ring (
Frozen Forest.Shen Hanyu held Shen Liuyu in his arms and kept moving through the snow-covered forest, searching for soul beasts around.
Shen Hanyu didn't have a specific concept about the Frozen Forest. He only knew that almost all forests covered with ice and snow were called Frozen Forest, which seemed to be a general term.
This forest has not been damaged at all, and its ecology is extremely intact. The number and variety of soul beasts are the largest in the surrounding area within a hundred miles, so it is naturally loved by some low-level soul masters.
Shen Liuyu's martial soul, the Enamel Crocodile, is only suitable for strong attack, so the soul beast he needs must also have strong attack power.
In fact, the crocodile martial spirit does not have so many requirements for the soul beast that obtains the soul ring. As long as the soul beast has strong attack power or outstanding defense power, it can be considered. Anyway, the soul skills obtained are either strong attack or amplification types, and there is a certain probability of obtaining defensive soul skills.
The brother and sister walked and looked along the way and saw quite a few soul beasts.
For example, there are ordinary soul beasts like Ice Elephant, Ice Wild Boar, Ice Core Flower, but there are no suitable powerful soul beasts.
After walking for a while, Shen Hanyu held the little girl in his arms, pointed to the white soul beast under a tree in front and said:
"Ayu, that's a snow lion, it's probably been in cultivation for about 500 years, what do you think?"
Shen Liuyu poked his head out, thought carefully, and said:
"Brother, no, I have a soul beast in mind."
Shen Hanyu was stunned, then said:
"Tell me what soul beast it is so I can keep an eye out for you."
Shen Liuyu took out a piece of paper from the soul guide, handed it to Shen Hanyu, and motioned for him to look at it.
The paper was written in cute font:
The Snow Region Demon Ape Group is located 30 kilometers north of the Frozen Forest. The Ape King has been in cultivation for 3,000 years and the population is about 50.
Shen Hanyu raised his eyebrows, he had some impression of this soul beast.
The Snow Demon Ape is a typical warlike soul beast, with extremely strong attack and defense capabilities. It is a rare balanced soul beast in the Far North.
"Ayu, can you tell me your reasons? As far as I know, there are better choices than the Snow Demon Ape."
"For example, powerful soul beasts like the Ice Rhino, Sky Ice Butterfly, Icefield Mammoth, and Ice Blood Tiger are no worse than the Snow Demon Ape, and may even be better."
Shen Hanyu said
Shen Liuyu thought for a moment and said,
"This is what my father and I discussed before. My father said that his martial soul is the Frost Crocodile, and his first soul ring comes from the Snow Demon Ape, which gives him a skill that increases both attack and defense by 30%. My father said that my martial soul is stronger than his, so the soul skills I get will naturally not be bad."
Shen Hanyu nodded the little girl's head and said with a smile:
"Ayu, don't believe what dad says in the future. It's purely luck. The quality of a soul skill depends on the quality of the soul beast you get the soul ring from, or the martial soul is directly related to the soul beast you get the soul ring from. For example, if the Blue Silver Grass martial soul gets the soul ring of Blue Silver Grass or Blue Silver King, the soul skill you get is the most suitable."
After Shen Hanyu's lecture, the little girl nodded as if she understood and stopped talking.
Shen Hanyu also thought about it and said:
"The biggest advantage of crocodiles is that they have almost no disadvantages. They are not bad in attack, defense or speed. Brother will take you to find the traces of the ice bear. If it doesn't work, in addition to the ice crocodile, there are many crocodile soul beasts in our Far North. They are more suitable for you than the Snow Demon Ape."
"Yeah! I'll listen to you, brother~"
......
Snowflakes slowly fell, and the icy wind whistled away into the distance.
From a patch of low bushes, two heads, one big and one small, slowly poked out, looked at each other, and then simultaneously looked towards a group of soul beasts at the edge of a river valley not far away.
"Ayu, look, that's a group of ice crocodiles, they are about 300 to 700 years old, they are not very powerful, but they are also one of the best soul beasts in the Far North."
Shen Hanyu smacked his lips, remembering the grilled crocodile meat he had eaten during the training. It was really delicious.
Shen Liuyu nodded in confusion and said,
"Then...Brother, are they our target?"
Shen Hanyu shook his head, pointed at three human-shaped figures walking upright in the distance, and said,
"They are our targets. We can sense the terrifying murderous aura from them from a long distance away."
Through the vast snow and wind, you can vaguely see three shadows in the snow and wind on the opposite bank walking towards here, and their speed is not slow.
"What are they, brother?"
Shen Liuyu asked curiously,
"I don't know either, but it doesn't look like an ice bear. It's too thin. It might be a humanoid soul beast like the Titan Snow Demon."
Shen Hanyu made a rough guess and signaled Shen Liuyu not to say anything and just watch quietly.
As the three figures slowly approached, Shen Hanyu and the others finally saw the faces of the three figures clearly.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
They are not big, the largest is only a little over two meters tall, but they have strong bodies and are covered with long snow-white hair. Their faces are covered with hair, so their appearance cannot be seen clearly, but you can still see the murderous aura emanating from their blood-red eyes.
"Is this... a smaller version of the Titan Snow Demon?"
Shen Hanyu was a little confused. He had never seen this soul beast in "Douluo Soul Beast Encyclopedia".
Shen Liuyu stared at the three soul beasts that were ready to attack, feeling a little nervous.
With a roar from the three unknown soul beasts, they jumped off the low cliff and began to kill the ice crocodile.
Shen Hanyu looked at the bloody scene below without covering his sister's eyes, and Shen Liuyu did not show any uncomfortable reaction. Instead, he watched with relish.
After a bloody massacre, the three unknown soul beasts finally stopped and sat down on the spot, starting to eat their fill.
Shen Hanyu couldn't help but swallow his saliva and received a strange look from his sister.
"Ahem, Ah Yu, although I don't know what this soul beast is, it looks like it has some connection with the Titan Snow Demon, so it shouldn't be that bad. I'll go and get you the one that's emitting soul power fluctuations of about 600 years. You stay here and don't move around casually. I've checked the area nearby and there are no other soul beasts."
Shen Liuyu nodded obediently, ran to hide under the bushes nearby, and poked his little head out.
Shen Hanyu: ...
My goodness, she is so cute. Who knows which yellow-haired girl will... Ugh, whoever wants to kidnap my sister has to beat me first, otherwise, no deal!
Looking at the three soul beasts below who were still feasting without knowing anything, Shen Hanyu seemed to see the yellow-haired girl who would kidnap his sister in the future, and a nameless fire rose in his heart.
Holding the Hantian Spear tightly in his hand and with four soul rings flashing under his feet, Shen Hanyu smiled maliciously and then jumped down.
Then a one-sided beating began...
Shen Liuyu, who was hiding in the bushes, had sparkling eyes. I don't know what he was thinking…
