Du Bai could now hit his targets with reasonable accuracy, missing no more than three shots out of ten.
But Du Bai was still far from being able to hit whatever he aimed at. He needed a great deal of repeated practice before he could reach that level.
He kept practicing with the gun.
Du Bai had no intention of slaughtering these soul beasts to the last.
However, some soul beasts were not afraid of death. After taking a shot from Du Bai, they went mad and sought revenge.
For example, the Scarlet Scale Leopard before him had a cultivation of ten thousand years.
After Du Bai shot it in the tail, the Scarlet Scale Leopard flew into a rage.
Human, you are playing with fire. Die!
The Scarlet Scale Leopard roared. Crimson scales rapidly covered its entire body, like a suit of red armor. Its defense was extraordinarily powerful, and its imposing aura was overwhelming.
Roar—
Amid the roar, Du Bai felt his head spin.
At the same time, the Scarlet Scale Leopard swung its sharp claws and pounced fiercely at Du Bai.
Du Bai could only raise Fire Qilin, pull the trigger, and answer with Fire Qilin's flaming bullets.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless flaming bullets streaked out like a barrage of meteors, tearing toward the Scarlet Scale Leopard.
But the black leopard did not charge blindly. It was highly intelligent, and through swift shifts in position, it actually dodged several bullets.
The few bullets that struck the Scarlet Scale Leopard were deflected by its scales with a clever application of force.
Roar—
After avoiding the damage, the Scarlet Scale Leopard roared again. Its crimson scales glowed with red light, its aura surging as it charged at Du Bai.
A sharp glint flashed through Du Bai's eyes.
Fire Qilin's Sixth Soul Skill: Wrath of the Berserk Ape!
Rat-a-tat-tat! Rat-a-tat-tat!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Flames flickered from the muzzle of Du Bai's AK-47 Fire Qilin. Fire Qilin bullets poured forth as if they cost nothing, firing at an even faster speed.
Du Bai's Sixth Soul Skill, Wrath of the Berserk Ape.
After activation, attack damage increased by 250%, attack speed increased by 200%, movement speed increased by 100%, and reload cooldown speed increased by 50%. The effect lasted for a total of ten seconds.
As a result, Du Bai could fire more than twice his usual number of bullets in a short time, and the damage of each bullet was multiplied by 2.5!
Before the Scarlet Scale Leopard could even reach Du Bai, the AK-47 Fire Qilin had already riddled it with holes. Its entire body was covered in wounds.
Thud—
The Scarlet Scale Leopard collapsed to the ground, drenched in blood and already unconscious.
At the same time, Du Bai's face turned pale.
During the berserk state of his Sixth Soul Skill, Du Bai had fired far too many bullets, consuming eighty percent of his Soul Power.
His face was now somewhat pale.
At the same time.
A black soul ring appeared above the Scarlet Scale Leopard's corpse. If it was not absorbed in time, it would soon dissipate into heaven and earth.
Du Bai had no interest in a ten-thousand-year soul ring.
"Hiss—"
Bibi Dong sucked in a sharp breath, stunned by Du Bai's Sixth Soul Skill.
As the Holy Maiden of Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong had seen countless top-tier martial souls.
Yet Du Bai's martial soul gave Bibi Dong the feeling that it stood at the very pinnacle of the pinnacle.
After catching her breath, Bibi Dong said, "Du Bai, are you all right? Fifty-thousand-year soul beasts are hard to find. Let's keep looking."
"I'm fine. Let's keep searching."
Du Bai answered calmly, reflecting on his Sixth Soul Skill from earlier, Wrath of the Berserk Ape.
Wrath of the Berserk Ape allowed Du Bai to unleash explosive damage in a short period, but its Soul Power consumption was equally enormous.
Ultimately, it was because Du Bai's gun skills were too poor. He could not hit every shot, so he could only gain an advantage through sheer bullet count.
He glanced at the Scarlet Scale Leopard's corpse.
This Scarlet Scale Leopard was one of the few soul beasts that had fought back. Still, it was a ten-thousand-year soul beast, so its retaliation was understandable.
Most of the other soul beasts, after Du Bai shot parts of their bodies and they sensed the terrifying aura around him,
simply turned and ran.
As for revenge?
It won't be too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years. I'll talk about it once I reach a hundred-thousand-year or million-year cultivation.
Du Bai allowed those soul beasts to flee, sparing their lives.
Leave a line of mercy, and there would be room to meet again in the future.
If they cultivated successfully in the future, broke through to one hundred thousand years, and came to seek revenge, that would simply mean another hundred-thousand-year soul ring.
Du Bai was very open-minded about it.
This was called broadening one's horizons.
But Du Bai did not know that, because he had spared those soul beasts, he had changed the fates of many soul masters.
When Du Bai practiced shooting, he often blasted off parts of soul beasts' bodies or even crippled them.
This greatly reduced the strength of those soul beasts. Their attack, defense, and escape abilities all became far weaker than before.
As a result, many soul masters got to take advantage of the situation.
Quite a few soul master teams had reaped considerable benefits from it.
Today, this soul master team called the Soul Hunting Dream Team had already helped three members obtain soul rings.
Their efficiency was more than twice what it had been before.
The captain of the Soul Hunting Dream Team was Wang Ye, a level 43 Soul Ancestor.
Besides Captain Wang Ye, the Soul Hunting Dream Team had three main members.
Led by Wang Ye, the team mainly helped newly promoted soul masters hunt soul rings in exchange for soul coins.
Today, Captain Wang Ye had accepted four jobs, mainly to help four newly promoted soul masters hunt suitable soul rings.
But today, they encountered something strange.
This time, the Soul Hunting Dream Team came across many injured soul beasts in Sunset Forest.
With Wang Ye's level 43 Soul Ancestor strength and the help of his team members, they captured one soul beast after another with hardly any effort.
By now, the Soul Hunting Dream Team had already helped three newly promoted soul masters find suitable soul rings and earned a sum of soul coins.
Only the last soul master had yet to encounter the soul ring he needed.
All the soul beasts they had encountered today were wounded, making them very easy to hunt.
Naturally, the newly promoted soul masters noticed this.
Seeing Wang Ye capture wounded soul beasts so easily, they could not help wondering whether they could hunt those soul beasts by relying on their own strength.
"Captain Wang Ye, I want part of my soul coins refunded. These soul beasts are all injured today. I feel like I could hunt them myself."
One newly promoted soul master gathered his courage and spoke up.
"We agreed from the start. You pay us, and we help you hunt soul rings. No haggling. What do you mean by going back on your word now?"
A sinister look flashed across Captain Wang Ye's face.
"But you saw it too. These soul beasts are all crippled. You don't need to pay much of a price to deal with them, so you should return some soul coins to us. Soul coins aren't easy to earn."
The newly promoted soul master continued.
"Yeah, today's circumstances are special. You should give us a discount!"
The other three newly promoted soul masters also chimed in.
"Shut up, all of you!"
"The price was agreed upon from the beginning. We didn't know this would happen either."
"If you think you can handle it yourselves, then don't hire a team in the future."
"I'm telling you, this kind of situation will basically never happen a second time. Keep haggling, and don't blame me for getting nasty!"
With a sinister expression on his face, Wang Ye spoke viciously.
Sob, sob, please vote! Could you spare a few votes for little Tonton? Sob, sob, thank you!
