Splitting into Two Groups

"The situation has actually reversed from what it was before," Tang San said, somewhat surprised.

But Chen Feng was not surprised by this; he had already considered the possibility of such a situation.

"I believe the main reason for this situation is that, after your Martial Soul Evolution, its quality is roughly equivalent to Xiao Wu 'Xiao San Martial Soul. However, you consumed the Xiao San Dark Jade Divine Bamboo, which altered your Martial Soul, thus creating a situation where one is stronger than the Xiao Wu."

Chen Feng had prepared two sets of explanations beforehand, but this was a failed attempt.

If Xiao Wu and Tang San successfully attempt Martial Soul Fusion Skill, he will naturally change the explanation.

However, that would make it more difficult to persuade Xiao Wu to take the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, but it's not entirely impossible.

For example, Chen Feng could explain the situation of his Yin Sword, stating that he needs Xiao Wu's blood to awaken it, and that after awakening, he might gain abilities related to the soul.

This ability is exactly what Xiao Wu desires, because she wants to resurrect her mother.

In short, no matter what, Chen Feng is confident that he can take advantage of Tang San's awakening of the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline to persuade Xiao Wu to eat the Lovesick Heartbreak Red and transform the Immortal Herb into his own strength.

For someone like her, a Soul Beast Transformation into Human, her own strength is undoubtedly very important, and keeping the Immortal Herb as a souvenir is not a wise move.

After hearing Chen Feng's words, Xiao Wu looked at him with some suspicion and said:

"I feel like you're just trying to trick me into eating the Immortal Herb. I'm not listening to you. I'll cultivate diligently and still advance to the Soul Ancestor level. Then Xiao San and I will try again. I don't believe we can't succeed."

"Whatever you want," Chen Feng said nonchalantly. "I don't really care about that, but I've considered what the effect of your combined Martial Soul Fusion Skill would be. Would you like to hear my predictions?"

"Tell me about it," Xiao Wu asked curiously.

In all the time she'd known Chen Feng Chen Feng, while his judgments weren't always 100% accurate, they were still quite reliable. So Xiao Wu trusted Chen Feng and felt his predictions could be used as a reference.

"Xiao Wu and Xiao San, the anomaly of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill occurred after you each obtained the Foundation Ring of Sunlight and Moonlight. In other words, your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is essentially a yin-yang fusion of sunlight and Moonlight."

"Both sunlight and Moonlight promote the growth and recovery of life. Coupled with Xiao San's abundant Life Force and Xiao Wu's plentiful energy, I believe that the Martial Soul Fusion Skill you two form is very likely to be of the recovery or growth type."

"Recover... or grow?" Tang San subconsciously looked at Xiao Wu, his eyes filled with a strong sense of hope.

His mother is now just a seedling. If his and Xiao Wu's Martial Soul Fusion Skill is indeed a recovery or growth type, as Chen Feng said, is it possible that his mother could benefit from it?

Xiao Wu understood Tang San's gaze. After Chen Feng made his conjecture, she immediately thought of this as well.

Xiao Wu realized that she probably still had to eat the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, because Martial Soul Fusion Skill that restores or strengthens might help revive her mother.

"Sigh, fine, I guess you've convinced me." Xiao Wu rolled her eyes at Chen Feng, annoyed.

Chen Feng wore a knowing smile, but said aloud:

"We're doing this all for your own good, so don't be ungrateful."

At that moment, Ma Hongjun instinctively replied:

"That's right, Xiao Wu, your father, Bro Feng, has really worried himself sick over you."

"You're dead!!!" Xiao Wu instantly went berserk.

Seeing that things were not going well, Ma Hongjun immediately ran away, hiding among the crowd, making it difficult for Xiao Wu to make a move. She could only stand there in a helpless rage.

"Alright, alright, Old Ma just misspoke, don't mind him, don't mind him." Chen Feng secretly rejoiced as he tried to break up the fight between the two, while Tang San also chimed in from the side.

But Xiao Wu eventually found an opportunity to punch Ma Hongjun, which finally calmed her down.

After a lot of playful fighting, it gradually got dark, and it was time to rest.

Xiao Wu returned to the tent prepared for the girls, sat cross-legged on her bunk, and took out the Lovesick Heartbreak Red that she always carried with her.

"I really can't bear to eat it," she sighed softly.

Gu Yue Ling had also entered the tent, said:

"I think it's best to eat it. Carrying it with you is risky in case of any accidents; the flower might get lost, and that would be a huge loss. Your own strength is the most important thing."

Xiao Wu paused for a moment, then nodded and said:

"You're right, I was being dramatic."

Ning Rongrong said with a smile:

"Actually, Xiao Wu, you can think of it this way: eating the Lovesick Heartbreak Red doesn't mean it disappears, but rather that it stays by your side in a different way."

Xiao Wu let out a soft breath, smiled, and said:

"Okay, then let it keep me company in another way."

After saying that, she plucked the petals of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red flower one by one and ate them little by little.

After the entire Lovesick Heartbreak Red was consumed, a faint Golden-red Light appeared around Xiao Wu, indicating that she had begun to absorb the medicinal power of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red.

In the boys' tent not far away, Chen Feng looked at the Golden-red Light shining in from outside and began to plan for the future.

After Xiao Wu consumes the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, her Soul Power will be able to catch up with the main group, and if nothing unexpected happens, she will also be able to help Chen Feng awaken the Yin Sword.

However, this will have to wait until Chen Feng obtains Soul Skill related to mental abilities.

The awakening of the Yang Sword requires Qian Renxue's blood. However, Chen Feng and Qian Renxue have only met a few times, so asking for her blood rashly would seem abrupt.

But it's not without a chance. Chen Feng plans to give it a try later; if it works, great, but if not, it won't matter.

The real key lies in the subsequent journey to the Far North. Chen Feng wasn't quite sure what Gu Yue Ling was trying to do by running that way, but it certainly wasn't just to see the scenery.

In this matter, Chen Feng had no information from the Original Work to refer to, so he could only improvise when the time came.

Nothing happened that night. By the next morning, with the help of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red Medicine, Xiao Wu had successfully broken through to Level 40.

"Congratulations! Now only Rongrong, me, Xiao Ao, and Xiangxiang are still Soul Elder in our team. Looks like we need to step up our game!" Chen Feng said.

"Sigh, I'm still far from it. I'm afraid even by the time of the Spirit Master Tournament, I won't be able to break through to the Soul Ancestor," Bai Chenxiang said somewhat dejectedly.

"Don't be discouraged, Xiangxiang. You're just at a disadvantage because you're younger. You're actually very talented," Ning Rongrong comforted her.

"I'm only a year younger, you guys are really amazing. But it's okay, I can be your Substitute later." Bai Chenxiang quickly adjusted her mindset and said with a smile.

She knew very well what kind of geniuses the others in the team were, and although her talent was quite good compared to the average person, it paled in comparison to true geniuses.

But it doesn't matter. As long as she keeps following in the footsteps of others, her future achievements will definitely not be bad. That's enough. Bai Chenxiang is a content person.

Xiao Wu's breakthrough means that there is one more person who needs a Soul Ring, and after a night of relocation work, the Illusion Demon Tree Wuxiang has also determined the time required for its relocation.

Three days.

Furthermore, during these three days, the Illusion Demon Tree's self-defense capabilities will be reduced to a very low level, its disguise will fail, and it will be very vulnerable to death due to external factors.

This presented everyone with a difficult problem: Xiao Wu would definitely need someone to protect her when she obtained the Soul Ring, at least that's what most people thought.

The Illusion Demon Tree also needs to be guarded, otherwise, if a Thousand-Year Soul Beast or Soul Master comes along, the Illusion Demon Tree will most likely be destroyed.

"It seems we'll have to split up," Flender said, stroking his chin.

"How about this, I'll take this little girl out to find Soul Beast, Boss Fu you three can stay here, since you have Martial Soul Fusion Skill that can handle most enemies," Zhao Wuji suggested.

"That's one way," Flender nodded slightly. "What do you think, Xiao Wu?"

"I think it's fine," Xiao Wu said nonchalantly.

She had already planned for her Fourth Soul Skill, which was an extremely powerful skill that she had already possessed during her Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast days.

In other words, Xiao Wu didn't even need any materials when she obtained her Fourth Soul Ring; she just needed to find an opportunity to be alone with him.

"Then it's settled. Zhao Wuji, you take Xiao Wu to find the Soul Beast. The rest of you stay here with me. We'll meet up here in three days." Flender made the decision.

Chen Feng coughed lightly and said:

"Dean, let me and Xiao San go with Xiao Wu too. We want to observe the application of the Ring Expansion Method more closely."

Flender hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Okay, then it'll be the four of you. Be careful on the road."

"Okay, I'll definitely keep a close eye on them," Zhao Wuji assured him.

"It's better not to take it so seriously. As long as I have a chance to be alone, I can solve the problem of the Soul Ring, "Xiao Wu muttered to herself.

And so, the four of them resumed their search for Soul Beast, while the rest stayed by the Illusion Demon Tree to cultivate and protect the now-fragile Illusion Demon Tree.

"Speaking of which, do the three of you have any goals this time?" Zhao Wuji asked as they walked.

"Target... I think Diamond Rabbit is pretty good." Xiao Wu subconsciously looked at Chen Feng.

"I think it's good too. This kind of Soul Beast has a divine skill called Invincible Golden Body, which is very suitable for archers like Xiao Wu." Chen Feng nodded and said.

"What effect does it have?" Zhao Wuji asked curiously.

"Immune to Physical Attack for a certain period of time," Xiao Wu said.

"Huh? All Physical Attack?" Zhao Wuji asked in surprise.

"It's said that she's immune to attacks below the god level," Xiao Wu said.

"Wow~ There's such an awesome Soul Skill? Shouldn't everyone be given one? Anyway, the Ring Expansion Method doesn't require killing Soul Beast," Zhao Wuji said.

"I can't do it." Xiao Wu shook her head.

"Why?"

"Because only Soul Master with rabbit-type Martial Soul can acquire this kind of Soul Skill, and even then, it's not guaranteed," Xiao Wu explained.

"This..." Zhao Wuji was momentarily speechless.

Xiao Wu continued:

"Moreover, because the Diamond Rabbit possesses such a divine skill, they have been hunted extensively. Many Soul Master, even those who don't have rabbit-type Martial Soul, still fantasize about obtaining this Soul Skill. As a result, Diamond Rabbit have become extremely rare and are very wary. We don't know if we'll be able to find one this time. If we don't, we'll have to find other suitable ones."

"Oh..." Zhao Wuji scratched his head, "Then you guys do what you want, I'll take care of your safety."

Before they knew it, most of the day had passed, and unsurprisingly, Zhao Wuji and his companions hadn't encountered any suitable Soul Beast.

Xiao Wu kept trying to find a chance to avoid Zhao Wuji's sight, but she couldn't do it at all. Zhao Wuji knew very well that these three children were his treasures, and he never let them leave his sight, nor did he let them act alone. They couldn't even go far to the toilet.

After all, Ma Hongjun's previous experience was still fresh in his mind. It was only because the Illusion Demon Tree Wuxiang ill intentions that things might have turned out this time.

Chen Feng and Tang San naturally understood Xiao Wu's predicament, but they didn't have any good solutions. Zhao Wuji wouldn't let them separate, which made their plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain completely useless.

However, Chen Feng eventually came up with a solution: to invite the Haotian Buddha.

Among the powerful figures Chen Feng knew, only Tang Hao and Dugu Bo knew Xiao Wu's identity as Soul Beast, and neither of them harbored any ill will towards Xiao Wu.

Tang Hao did this because his wife, Ah Yin, was Soul Beast Transformation into Human, so naturally she wouldn't harm Xiao Wu. Moreover, Xiao Wu and Tang San were good friends, which made it easy for Tang Hao to relate to his relationship with Ah Yin.

Dugu Bo, on the other hand, was on good terms with Chen Feng, Chen Feng had been kind to him. Being a man of his word, he wouldn't harm Chen Feng's friend, and he also didn't want to provoke Tang Hao.

Now that Dugu Bo is gone, if Xiao Wu wants to find an opportunity to Self-Condensed Spirit Ring, going to Tang Hao is a very good choice. That way, Zhao Wuji won't have to protect them anymore.

Thinking of this, Chen Feng winked at Tang San and mouthed the words "your father".

Asking the Haotian Buddha to intervene means that Zhao Wuji must send them to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and Tang San needs to decide for himself whether or not to let Zhao Wuji know the location of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Tang San quickly understood Chen Feng's meaning, and he said without hesitation:

"Teacher Zhao, I have a faster way to find Soul Beast."

"Oh? What method?"

"Go find my father; he lives in seclusion somewhere in this forest."

Zhao Wuji was taken aback. "You mean His Highness Clear Sky?"

"Right."

"Hmm... alright, tell me the place, I'll take you there... By the way, should I make any preparations?" Zhao Wuji suddenly became nervous.

"No need, Teacher Zhao, my dad doesn't care about those formalities," Tang San said with a smile.
