Chapter 7 Four Hundred Years
The sudden sound caused Xiao Han to open his eyes suddenly, Shui Bing'er beside him also woke up, and their eyes turned to Lin Zhiruo almost at the same time.
Lin Zhiruo has quietly stood in front of the two of them. Her eyes are as sharp as an eagle, and her body exudes faint fluctuations of soul power. She is obviously ready for battle.
"The spirit beast is here, I'm here, don't be afraid."
Outside the cave, the low roar and the sound of claws digging at the snow are getting closer and closer. It's obvious that it's not one. Soul beasts, but a group.
Xiao Han's heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate. After traveling to this world for six years, he had never seen a real soul beast.
Lin Zhiruo said:
“They are snow-covered ice beasts, and there are quite a few of them. They usually don’t act alone.”
The wind outside the cave was howling, mixed with The howling of the frozen beast became more and more eerie.
Snowy Frozen Beast, as one of the gregarious predators in the frozen forest, is fast, powerful, and equipped with slowing and freezing skills. It is an existence that many soul masters are unwilling to provoke.
"Xiaohan, Bing'er, you two just stay here and don't move."
Lin Zhiruo released her Ice Bird Martial Spirit as she spoke.
Although the ice bird is small in stature, its ice-cold power is extremely domineering, and its flying speed is extremely fast, comparable to teleportation.
As the third soul ring quietly lit up, circles of icy blue light condensed around Lin Zhiruo, as if to freeze the surrounding air.
In the blink of an eye, the group of snowy and frozen beasts arrived in front of the cave.
There are a dozen of them in total, and one of them is the largest and stands out among the group of beasts. He is their leader at a glance.
The eyes of the leader beast flashed a fierce red light in the night.
The muscles all over its body are knotted, and every inch reveals strength and majesty that cannot be underestimated.
Its hair flutters gently in the cold wind, and is silvery white with a touch of ice blue. It looks both beautiful and dangerous.
The leading beast stood at the front of the herd, and did not immediately launch an attack. Instead, it looked at Lin Zhiruo and the others in a superior manner, as if assessing the opponent's strength.
Lin Zhiruo deliberately restrained her soul power and raised the corners of her mouth slightly.
She felt that the leader's cultivation level was about three thousand years, while the other snow-bound and frozen beasts had only a few hundred years' cultivation level.
Facing such a herd of beasts, there is no pressure.
Seeing Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er, those snowy frozen beasts showed their fangs, like a silent provocation and contempt for the weak.
With the release of their soul power, the surrounding temperature dropped, the air suddenly condensed into frost, and the snow on the ground also instantly condensed into ice.
Lin Zhiruo smiled slightly.
“Xiaohan and Bing’er, you two have obtained your first soul ring.”
“Mom, Bing’er and I are both four hundred years old.”
“Got it!”
Hoo~
Following the low and long howl of the leading beast, the surrounding beasts seemed to have received some kind of instruction, and they all roared in response, and then pounced towards the three of them.
“Overestimating your own abilities!”
With the sudden flash of the fifth soul ring, Lin Zhiruo directly released the fifth soul skill, Ice Cone Stab.
This is a ten thousand year soul skill.
In an instant, the space around Lin Zhiruo seemed to be frozen by ice. Then, countless sharp ice cones shot out of the air, like dense arrow rain, piercing the night sky and pointing directly at the snowy ice that was swooping in. Seal the beast.
Wherever the ice pick passed, the air seemed to be cut with cold cracks.
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The ice pick pierced the defense line of the beasts at an alarming speed. Even the leading beast was rubbed by several ice picks before it could avoid it. Wounded, howling in pain.
The beasts were suddenly in disarray. Some were directly penetrated through their bodies and fell to the ground twitching; others were forced to change directions due to the sudden attack and lost their original offensive.
The leading beast then realized that the human soul master in front of him was not a simple man. He roared and ordered his companions to evacuate.
"Freeze!" A huge force of ice surged out of Lin Zhiruo's body, instantly freezing all the space within a hundred meters around her.
Those frozen beasts in the snow that had not fully escaped were trapped by the sudden force of ice, unable to move and could only howl in despair.
Xiao Han and Shui Binger stood in the cave and were shocked when they witnessed all this.
This was the first time they saw Lin Zhiruo's strength.
"Mom, you are so amazing!"
Xiao Han couldn't help shouting, his eyes flashing with excitement and admiration.
Lin Zhiruo looked at the frozen beasts in the snow and asked:
"Xiaohan, Bing'er, are you both ready?"
"Ready."
Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er nodded at the same time, their eyes firm.
Killing the soul beast's life with one's own hands is a step that they must go through on their growth path.
"Xiaohan, go kill the one on the left. Bing'er, go kill the one on the right."
"Okay."
The two snow-covered ice The sealed beasts were all hit by ice picks, and were frozen in the ice with only their heads exposed, dying.
Xiao Han took out the sharp dagger from the soul guide, and walked towards the two snowy frozen beasts with Shui Binger.
The first time he came into contact with a soul beast at such a close distance, Xiao Han's heart beat faster, but he still drew out his dagger without hesitation and pierced the throat of the snowy frozen beast.
The snow-covered ice beast struggled for a few times, then became motionless.
On the other side, Shui Binger also ended the life of the snowy frozen beast.
“Today, I’ll let you go!”
Lin Zhiruo gently waved his hand and released the ice. The trapped snow-covered ice beasts ran away like wild horses and disappeared from the sight of several people in an instant.
"Xiaohan, Bing'er, please remember. Although it is a natural law for soul masters to hunt soul beasts to obtain soul rings, we cannot kill innocent people indiscriminately. We only need to get what we want."
"Yes, I got it."
A cloud of yellow mist slowly rose from the body of the frozen beast in the snow, and gradually condensed into a soul that released a faint yellow light. ring.
"Bing'er, go ahead and absorb the soul ring, adjust your condition, and use your mind to introduce the energy of the soul ring into your body."
"Okay."
Shui Bing'er walked to the yellow soul ring, sat cross-legged, adjusted her condition, and began to absorb it.
Xiao Han couldn't wait.
“Mom, I’m going to absorb the soul ring too.”
“Both these two snowy frozen beasts have about four hundred years of cultivation. I’m a little worried. With your current level, Conditions, can you bear it?”
"Don't worry, I'm sure I can do it."
Xiao Han is confident enough in himself.
"Okay, then go ahead. Take your time, don't be in a hurry."
"Yes."
Xiao Han also walked over, and after adjusting his condition, Start absorbing that soul ring.
He closed his eyes and concentrated on guiding the energy of the soul ring.
This energy raged through his body like a violent storm, as if countless ice blades were shuttling through his meridians, bringing bursts of stinging pain and chills.
Xiao Han gritted his teeth and tried hard to maintain the balance of his body. Following the method taught by Lin Zhiruo, he used his soul power as a guide to slowly introduce this external energy into his body.
