To test the power of Oscar's Third Spirit Ability, the three of them directly consumed Oscar's third spirit ring when searching for Shao Xin's Seventh Spirit Ring.

Oscar's Third Spirit Ability was called Divine Speed Swift Swallow Sausage. It was white, and the sausage resembled a cute little swallow. It tasted similar to roasted Pointed Tail Swift meat and was quite delicious.

However, there was no need to chew it, because Food System Soul Master abilities generally turned into refined soul power the moment they entered the mouth. The flavor was fleeting, disappearing before one could properly taste it.

Oscar's Third Spirit Ability provided a full fifteen minutes of flight, enough time to fly a great distance.

This time, with Gai Yue present, they were extremely meticulous in selecting Shao Xin's Seventh Spirit Ring. After all, Shao Xin had broken through Level 70 at his age. Even if he had no chance of becoming a Titled Douluo in the future, he still had hope of reaching the higher ranks of Soul Douluo.

Moreover, there seemed to have never been a Titled Douluo among Food System Soul Masters. If Shao Xin could reach the higher ranks of Soul Douluo in the future, his support abilities would undoubtedly be unprecedented.

His Seventh Spirit Ring should have been the slot for a Martial Soul Avatar. However, Food System Soul Masters rarely obtained Martial Soul Avatars from their Seventh Spirit Rings. They generally received enhanced Spirit Abilities instead, so Shao Xin chose a plant-type Spirit Beast that lived within Sunset Forest.

This Spirit Beast possessed powerful life force and extremely strong recovery abilities, making it undoubtedly well suited to Shao Xin.

Having decided on their target, Gai Yue took Oscar and Shao Xin to begin searching. However, they did not seem to have their previous good fortune this time. They searched for half a month without finding any trace of it.

But Shao Xin himself was not anxious. Acquiring Spirit Rings was simply like this. Aside from possessing the strength to hunt Spirit Beasts, luck was sometimes part of it as well.

If one was lucky enough, the Spirit Beast might appear right before them the moment they stepped into a Spirit Beast Forest.

If one was unlucky, they might gain nothing even after spending half a year in a Spirit Beast Forest. As a prospective Soul Saint, Shao Xin had long grown used to such things.

At noon that day, Shao Xin was still resting in place and grilling meat, while Oscar sat cross-legged nearby cultivating. After all, having just acquired a Spirit Ring, familiarizing himself with his strength was also very important.

Gai Yue was nowhere to be seen at the moment. He seemed to have discovered the trail of a Spirit Beast suitable for Shao Xin's Seventh Spirit Ring and had gone off to track it.

The reason he had not brought Oscar and Shao Xin along was that they were facing a Spirit Beast with at least Forty Thousand Years of cultivation this time. To avoid any accidents, Gai Yue had settled the two of them here.

This place was the territory of a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast. Gai Yue had come here, beaten that Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast up, driven it out of its territory, and then occupied the place themselves.

Other than herd-dwelling Spirit Beasts, most Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts had a strong sense of territory. Since this Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast had been driven away, no Spirit Beasts would set foot here for a short while.

In order to establish their territories, Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beasts left behind their aura throughout their territory. Ordinary Spirit Beasts did not dare come and disturb them.

After ensuring the two men's safety, Gai Yue left, leaving Shao Xin and Oscar here to cook.

While Oscar was cultivating, Shao Xin suddenly sensed that something was wrong and shouted at him, "Xiao Ao, a Spirit Beast is rapidly approaching. It should be a Thousand Year Spirit Beast."

As Shao Xin spoke, he pointed out a direction to Oscar. Hearing this, Oscar instantly opened his eyes and looked where Shao Xin pointed. Releasing his spiritual power, he too sensed the rapidly approaching Spirit Beast.

Although Oscar was somewhat surprised that a Thousand Year Spirit Beast would intrude into a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast's territory, this was clearly not the time to think about that.

Oscar swiftly took out two Flying Swallow Sausages, handing one to Shao Xin.

He had continuously stored up this Third Spirit Ability over the past half month precisely so that, when encountering a special situation like this, he would not need to expend soul power to make sausages, thereby preserving his combat strength.

However, neither of them ate it immediately. Oscar quickly stepped in front of Shao Xin, azure light blooming from his left hand as a Jade Sword appeared in his grip.

In truth, if it were merely a Thousand Year Spirit Beast, the two of them would not need to be so cautious at all.

Although Shao Xin had no attack power, his Soul Power Level was genuine. As long as he released his soul power pressure, most Thousand Year Spirit Beasts would not dare approach any closer.

But this Thousand Year Spirit Beast was clearly unusual. It had dared to trespass into the territory of a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast, undoubtedly proving that soul power pressure might not be effective.

Besides, it was only a Thousand Year Spirit Beast. With Oscar's current strength, he could handle it perfectly well. Thus, although the two were wary, they did not immediately take to the air.

Just as the two finished preparing themselves, a serpent-type Spirit Beast eight or nine meters long shot out from the grass ten meters ahead. The instant Oscar saw it, he knew its name.

Purple Poison Viper, one of the most venomous serpent-type Spirit Beasts. Its poison was extremely corrosive. Even if the venom did not enter the body, contact with the skin would cause it to fester, eventually turning one into a puddle of pus.

Yet for some reason, several patches of scales were missing from the Purple Poison Viper's body. It had clearly suffered serious injuries.

But Oscar had no time to care about that. The instant the Purple Poison Viper appeared, the Jade Sword in his hand slashed out a sword qi. Oscar did not hold back, because he could not be sure whether the Purple Poison Viper had gone mad.

After all, it had charged straight into the territory of a Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast. Clearly, it could not be judged by common sense, so Oscar naturally had to strike first.

"Frost Moon Slash!"

A terrifying sword qi fused with soul power shot forth and slashed directly at the Purple Poison Viper's head. The Purple Poison Viper seemed desperate to flee and had not noticed Oscar and Shao Xin at all, leaving it no time to evade Oscar's attack.

The Purple Poison Viper slammed directly into Oscar's sword qi slash and was cut in two.

The Purple Poison Viper's severed body seemed not to have died immediately after falling to the ground. Instead, it writhed frantically, spewing large amounts of venom wildly from its mouth, as if launching a final counterattack before death.

However, they were a full ten meters apart, and the Purple Poison Viper's deadly venom could not reach Oscar or Shao Xin at all.

Oscar was not surprised after killing the Purple Poison Viper with a single slash. With his current strength, dealing with this Purple Poison Viper was more than easy. He simply had not expected the other party to have already been seriously injured and to make no attempt to dodge, allowing Oscar to kill it in a single blow.

Just after Oscar cut the Purple Poison Viper in half, a tall girl with short green hair hurried over, her snake tail swaying behind her. She happened to arrive where the Purple Poison Viper had died.

When the girl saw the Purple Poison Viper, whose Spirit Ring had already begun to condense, she looked at Oscar with a flash of anger in her eyes.

Her slightly indignant voice rang out. "Hey, you... why did you kill my Spirit Beast?!"

Please bookmark and vote! I read all your comments over the past few days, brothers. You all said it was unreasonable for the protagonist to learn about some Immortal Herbs from a book. This will be explained later in the story. It was only briefly mentioned in an earlier chapter without a proper explanation, but you will understand as you keep reading. I will do my best to write this closed loop well.

There was also the matter of the protagonist consuming the first piece of Whale Rubber earlier. The story explains that too. It was because the protagonist's Physical Fitness had happened to reach the critical point for a breakthrough. That Whale Rubber merely acted as a switch, triggering the effects of his previous body tempering and medicinal baths, which was why he improved by so much all at once.

Lastly, I beg you brothers to please keep reading! The PK over the next few weeks will depend on the data, so please help me out.

And if any brothers have votes, it would be even better if you could send in a few more.

My sincere thanks!
