Chapter 16 Ambush
In the blink of an eye, Tong Rui's first semester was over.
There was no stupid provocation, no teacher’s nagging, and nothing happened on the day of the holiday.
The five people also said goodbye to each other before leaving. After all, the five of them lived in four directions and no one came along.
Because of the long journey, Tong Qingtian planned to pick him up in person. Before that, Tong Rui planned to take a tour of Tiandou City.
In addition to studying books, when I go to Tiandou City, I usually go directly to the store to buy some things, so I basically don’t visit Tiandou City much.
Tong Rui, who was walking in the market, thought of many of the protagonists who had picked up bugs in street stalls. It happened to be a day off today, and he also planned to go to the black market in Tiandou City.
Tong Rui walked to a tall white marble archway. There was an old wooden plaque on the top with four large characters written on it with iron paintings and silver hooks.
"Number one in the world!"
The red lanterns were hung high, reflecting the row of words as red as if they were bleeding.
Looking inside the archway, two long queues have already formed.
Dark figures and stalls stretched out for hundreds of meters.
Without any disguise, Tong Rui walked into the market carelessly.
Anyway, you can't do anything in Tiandou City, and precious items will be bought by people immediately, so if there are only some rags left, no one will provoke you at all.
As for the gold soul coins, people above the soul saint level would not engage in robbery here. His father would be here soon, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
Although everyone looked at him like a big fat sheep and felt uncomfortable, Tong Rui didn't care. After all, he was here to spend money.
Tong Rui wandered around, stopped at a stall selling books, and asked the stall owner: "How do you sell these books?"
"30 gold soul coins each."
Tong Rui picked up some books, flipped through them, and found that most of them were old books. He picked out four books and said, "These are 20."
"Okay."
Tong Rui paid and left. These four books are more or less related to soul guides. There are two old books, which are also used to confuse the boss and prevent him from continuing to ask for excessive prices.
Although Tong Rui is not short of these dozens, he doesn't want to be an injustice and give it away in vain.
I continued shopping, followed a road, and bought some medicinal seeds and broken soul guides.
Although the soul guides were all broken, their internal core was not damaged.
Tong Rui plans to record it and then try to use the time and space treasure trove to repair it. After all, even soul beast corpses can be forged into weapons, so there's no reason why soul guides can't be repaired.
As the study of herbal medicine has reached a bottleneck, Tong Rui plans to study the soul guide and forging to prepare for the production of the battle armor after completing the research on the technique.
Although he can be strengthened infinitely through the time and space treasure house, the strengthening becomes slower as he progresses. The forged armor has been cultivated for 6 and a half years, and it has only reached 91% now.
Although with the level of one-word battle armor, he has reached the forefront of the times, but Tong Rui feels that according to this progress, he will not be able to reach the level of two-word battle armor until he is banned.
When we reached the soul beast area, it started to get mixed up.
Not to mention soul beast eggs and young soul beasts, the most numerous people here are slaves and people who exhibit the characteristics of soul beasts.
Tong Rui is also very interested in this. Although people nowadays only trade people with the characteristics of animal ears and tails as slaves.
But after watching Dou San, you know the importance of bloodline. This kind of people who have shown the characteristics of soul beasts are obviously due to incomplete bloodline awakening or uncontrollable characteristics.
If one awakens his martial soul or purifies his bloodline, his progress can be said to be rapid.
Generally in this situation, as long as the bloodline progresses, the soul power will break through the shackles, and its upper limit will be greatly increased.
But Tong Rui would not buy it even if he had the conditions. Those being sold must have extremely low innate soul power. Even if it can be improved, it will be too slow. The same is true for soul beasts.
Even if there is a good one, Tong Rui will not buy it unless his talent is extremely high or his bloodline is excellent enough. After all, I'm going home soon, and it's not convenient to carry one with me.
Return home and buy soul beast eggs from the towns near the Star Dou Forest. Their talents will definitely be higher than those in the inland Soul Hunting Forest or Sunset Forest.
As for the beast-eared girl, it depends on fate. If this kind of people are not cultivated from an early age, it actually means nothing. Just like that, after visiting the black market, we returned to the academy. I found that my father was already waiting in the living room.
Tong Rui hurriedly walked into the house and asked, "When did you come?"
Tong Qingtian replied: "It won't take long, let's go quickly, don't you still have to go to some villages for experiments?"
That's right, Tong Rui's purpose of calling Tong Qingtian was also for a plan that had been shelved by him - a faith experiment.
Although the power of faith is difficult to be absorbed by normal soul masters, Tong Rui still thinks that he can give it a try with the proficiency system.
The father and son headed home, planning to test from the nearest village first.
But not long after leaving Tiandou City, Tong Qingtian pulled Tong Rui to stop.
Tong Rui looked at his father in confusion, and Tong Qingtian said calmly: "Aren't you coming out yet?"
Tong Rui immediately made a warning gesture and summoned his martial spirit.
I saw a middle-aged man walking out with a young man, surrounded by four men in black.
"Is it you? MiHoYo, right? I remember you are the son of the Grand Duke of Balak Kingdom. Why, you finally mustered up the courage to take revenge on me?"
Tong Rui remained vigilant, but remained calm on the surface, and at the same time told Tong Qingtian the identity of the person in front of him.
Tong Rui had asked Yu Tianheng to help investigate before. The strongest person in Mihayou's family was a level 79 soul saint. He became the Grand Duke because his family contributed to the founding of the country, so after level 70, he can inherit the position of Grand Duke. .
Tong Rui thought to himself: "It is estimated that his family is also within the scope of his investigation. Since he is confident that he is surrounded, the leader must be at the soul saint level. I just don't know what level the remaining four people are."
MiHoYo's face turned red, but the man said: "Haha, as long as you can kneel down in front of my son today, kowtow and apologize, then let this matter go."
Tong Qingtian snorted coldly and said, "One soul saint and four high-level soul sects. Is this how you confidently surround us?"
"As long as you catch that kid, why don't you just surrender? Do it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the four Soul Sects rushed towards Tong Rui from behind, and the Soul Sage also rushed towards Tong Qingtian.
"Hold on, I'll kill him right away!" Tong Qingtian said via voice message.
"A mere Soul Sect is not worthy of defeating me." Tong Rui said confidently.
As he spoke, a pair of armor appeared out of thin air and was put on Tong Rui. It is the meteorite armor that has been cultivated to 91%.
Although this armor has not yet been completely tempered to the level of a one-word battle armor, the components that have been upgraded are also the highest limit that Tong Rui can bear. After all, one-word battle armor requires at least a 5-ring soul master to wear it.
The four people approached in a blink of an eye, and Tong Rui observed the four men in black. Three beast spirits and one weapon spirit.
The first soul skill, Star Chain, was activated.
A silver star appeared at the feet of the Wolf Spirit Soul Master who was charging at the front, and chains stretched out in the blink of an eye, wrapping and binding him.
But at the same time, a long knife struck horizontally. Tong Rui retreated decisively, and instantly raised a wolf-headed golden shield with his left hand to block the long knife's attack.
At the same time, the astrolabe in his right hand was replaced by a long sword, and he threw it at the Leopard Soul Master who was jumping towards him.
He summoned the astrolabe again, used his shield to repel the long knife, and at the same time jumped back to avoid the wind blade shot by an unknown species of bird soul master in the air.
While the four soul masters launched their soul skills together and rushed towards him, Tong Rui also rushed towards the long-sword soul master, replacing the shield in his left hand with a dagger.
Just as the four of them were about to rush towards him, Tong Rui used his third soul skill, Astral Barrier.
Purple light flashed, and the accumulated offensive of the four people was instantly interrupted, and they rushed towards Tong Rui relying on their physical bodies.
Tong Rui had already approached the long-sword soul master at this time, and activated his first soul skill again. The chain wrapped around the soul master, and the long sword in Tong Rui's hand also pierced the soul master's heart.
He stepped on the long-sword soul master, pulled out the long sword, turned half a circle, held the sword with his backhand, and used his soul power again to insert it into the long-sword soul master's brain.
Turning around and looking at the remaining three people: "Come on!"
