Douluo: I'll take the benefits, you bear the side effects

Chapter 46 Star Forest

Silent all night.

The next morning, just as the sky was getting light, everyone set out.

As one of the three major wild soul beast habitats in Douluo Continent, the Xingdou Great Forest spans the two empires of Xingluo and Tiandou, and is home to numerous soul beasts.

From a distance, everyone felt the cool air blowing towards them.

It makes people feel an indescribable comfort all over the body.

This was not the first time that Ning Chuan and Zhao Wuji came to the Star Dou Great Forest, so it was nothing. Xiao Wu had lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for tens of thousands of years, or even a hundred thousand years, so it was no different from going home.

Others are different.

Including Tang San, everyone was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, with an expression of solemnity and shock that was difficult to conceal on their faces.

As they arrived at the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, everyone slowed down and changed from running to walking at a normal speed.

At the same time, Oscar also prepared a large number of recovery sausages and detoxification sausages to distribute to everyone.

Ning Chuan released the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword and led the way. After walking for about an hour, the group, who had gained nothing, rested on the spot under the command of Zhao Wuji.

Another half hour passed, and Ning Chuan, Zhao Wuji and Tang San looked in the same direction at the same time.

"Something is approaching, everyone be alert."

At Zhao Wuji's command, Ning Chuan immediately protected the two auxiliary soul masters Ning Rongrong and Oscar. Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing and Ma Hongjun also took protective measures.

"Is it finally here? The Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Snake!"

Ning Chuan sighed in his heart.

Tang San was able to sense movement because he had cultivated the Purple Demon Eye.

Zhao Wuji was able to sense movement because he was a Soul Sage and had a strong mental power.

As for Ning Chuan, it was because of his second martial soul.

Gold-eating bug.

When using the gold-eating bugs, not only his soul power will be consumed, but also his mental power. With Tang Hao's power bank, Ning Chuan can practice controlling the bug swarm for a long time.

In this process of consumption and replenishment, his mental power is much stronger than that of soul masters of the same level.

But he would not let Oscar get this crested snake.

Just give him an ordinary thousand-year soul ring.

"Tang San, Zhu Qing, Xiao Wu, Fatty, protect Rong Rong and Oscar. I'll see what's going on."

Thinking of this, Ning Chuan mobilized his soul power and jumped up directly. As if walking on flat ground, he quickly climbed up a big tree next to him and soon saw the figure of the Phoenix-tailed Cockapoo.

It has reddish wings and is about seven meters long.

"It's a phoenix-tailed cockatoo that is about 1,500 years old. It's coming towards us now. It seems like something is chasing it." Ning Chuan said to the people under the tree.

"Haha, Xiao Ao, you are blessed now."

Zhao Wuji didn't care what was chasing him. After all, this was the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and there was no way any powerful ten thousand year old soul beast would appear here.

"Indeed, the crest on the head of the Phoenix-tailed Cockatiel has many wonderful uses. If Oscar can obtain it, he will most likely gain a speed-related skill, or even flight. The most important thing is that this thing is non-toxic and only emits a pink mist to confuse the enemy, so there is not much risk in capturing it."

Ning Chuan was unwilling to give Tang San a chance to show off.

Ma Hongjun exclaimed: "Boss Ning, you are really a master of theory. You can tell the age of a soul beast at a glance." The others looked at Ning Chuan in amazement, only Tang San and Oscar looked depressed.

The former was always overtaken by Ning Chuan in everything, and the latter, the more outstanding Ning Chuan was, the slimmer his hope of pursuing Ning Rongrong became.

But as the beneficiary of this soul hunting, he can't say anything and needs to rely on everyone's help to hunt soul rings.

It's so depressing.

Ning Chuan said seriously to the Vernal track: "I just read a few more books."

As he was speaking, the Phoenix-Tailed Cockatoo Snake had already flown over. Without any tactics, nor was there any need for any tactics, Ning Chuan just swooped down from the air, and three soul rings, one yellow and two purple, suddenly flashed.

The third soul ring lit up, Ning Chuan held the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, and his body split into three, turning into three green transparent figures that stabbed towards the Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake.

The Phoenix-tailed Cockatoo reacted quickly, and with a quick swoop, it turned its body and avoided the first transparent green figure.

But he could no longer avoid the second and third ones.

The second one directly slashed its wings, breaking its balance. The third figure, that is, Ning Chuan's real body, fell from the sky, holding the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword in both hands, and nailed it to the ground, making it unable to move.

"Is this it?"

It was not until Ning Chuan caught the Phoenix-tailed Cockatoo that everyone reacted. They seemed to have not expected that the Phoenix-tailed Cockatoo, which was famous for its speed, could be subdued so easily.

"What's the problem?"

The green light on his body disappeared, Ning Chuan returned to his original appearance, turned around and looked at everyone.

"Of course there is a problem. If it was just an ordinary thousand-year-old soul beast, it would be fine, but this is a Phoenix Tail Cockscomb Snake. Even a Soul Emperor would find it extremely difficult to capture it alive. You..."

Zhao Wuji looked at Ning Chuan as if he was looking at a monster.

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun also nodded in agreement.

Compared to the Soul Emperor, Ning Chuan's strength may be much worse, but he has no shortcomings at all. He has speed, strength, attack and defense, and what's more deadly is his mysterious swordsmanship.

And there are also the top-grade soul skills granted by his three exaggerated soul rings.

I really don't know how this kid practices.

As for Tang San, he clenched his fists so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh, because he knew he couldn't do what Ning Chuan did.

Especially when facing Ning Chuan's third soul skill, unless he uses his second martial soul and hidden weapons, he really has no chance of winning.

Xiao Wu stood beside Ning Chuan, showing a look of reluctance, "Do we really have to hunt soul beasts?"

"See those two scars? This shows that someone was chasing us before us."

Ning Chuan pointed at the belly of the Phoenix-Tailed Cockatiel, then looked up at the sky. "Moreover, this is not decided by us, but by the rules of this world. In this deformed world of cultivation, if a soul master wants to improve his strength, he needs a soul ring. Otherwise, he will be stuck at a certain level and unable to advance. Even if we don't kill it, this Phoenix-Tailed Cockatiel will die at the hands of another soul master."

"Is there really no way?" Xiao Wu's face turned pale.

"Unless you have the ability to change the rules of this world, how many of those who have reached that level would even consider this? And how many of those who have considered this could maintain their original aspirations?"

Ningchuan meant something.

In the original novel, Xiao Wu still remembered that she was a soul beast at the beginning, but soon she completely lost her original intention. Not only did she leave it alone, but later she watched helplessly as Tang Fozu almost wiped out the soul beast clan.

After hearing this, Xiao Wu became thoughtful.
