Humanoid Spirit Beast

Chapter 41 Humanoid Spirit Beast

Three years later.

"What the hell is this?"

Nan Feng, having just come out of seclusion, was depressed.

Damn it!

He had been planning to unlock the Rat Talisman once he reached level fifty to see if he could mess with the Angel God, but the moment he hit level fifty, the Tiger Talisman lit up on its own!

Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Dog—he just wanted to know, where was the conflict between these four talismans?

Was the Tiger unable to hold back and decided to enter the fray itself?

"What's wrong?" Bibi Dong asked, puzzled.

"Nothing, it's just that my grand plan has to be delayed," Nan Feng said helplessly.

"Delayed?" A strange look appeared on Bibi Dong's face.

"You're still thinking about that?"

"Of course. This world, filled with sin, needs the radiance of the Angel God to cleanse it!" Nan Feng said with a straight face.

Direct power could only make people submit on the surface, but the power of faith was enough to drive people to madness from the bottom of their hearts!

"Stop with the cleansing for a moment. I need your help with something right now." Bibi Dong handed Nan Feng a report that had come in from the vicinity of the Star Dou Forest.

"A humanoid spirit beast?" Nan Feng was stunned.

Xiao Wu's mother?

"How do you want me to help?" Nan Feng asked, confused.

"Come on, even though I'm a sixteen-year-old genius spirit king, I don't have a shred of combat power. I'm a pure support, man!"

Although the two little rabbits had already shed their hundred-thousand-year cultivation to take human form, Big Bull and Little Monkey hadn't. Unlike Title Douluo, the attacks from those spirit beasts weren't just skill-based; they were continuous damage!

His Name Blade couldn't immunize him against continuous damage!

Although in the original story, Big Bull and Little Monkey didn't show up when Bibi Dong hunted the little rabbits, who knew what would actually happen this time?

That was the Star Dou Forest. When Bibi Dong and the others started fighting, they wouldn't be able to look after him!

"I'm not asking you to fight," Bibi Dong said.

"Not going to fight?" Nan Feng raised an eyebrow.

"Don't tell me..."

"Oh~"

"You're so despicable!"

"I like it!"

Star Dou Forest.

In the mixed zone, an injured holy spirit cat was sprinting wildly through the forest.

Behind it was one of the most notorious soul beasts in the Star Dou Forest: the man faced demon spider.

What the hell is this!!

Nan Feng, currently transformed into the holy spirit cat, really couldn't help but want to curse!

Wasn't it said that man faced demon spiders were extremely rare?

How did Gui Mei find one?

And it's a ten-thousand-year man faced demon spider, for crying out loud!

Damn it!

This wasn't acting anymore! He was genuinely running for his life!!

Help!!!

Bang!

A swift figure flew out from the woods and kicked the man faced demon spider away with a single strike. At the same time, a little girl who looked about three or four years old poked her head out from the trees and waved at Nan Feng.

"Come here quickly!"

Nan Feng slammed on the brakes, flicked his cat tail, leaped into the air, and dove straight into Xiao Wu's arms, passing out.

"Huh?" Xiao Wu looked bewildered.

Injured this badly?

Deep in the forest, beside a small wooden cabin.

Ah Rou, having driven away the man faced demon spider, brought Nan Feng and Xiao Wu back and gathered some nearby herbs to bandage him up.

"Mom, isn't the holy spirit cat supposed to be nearly extinct?" Xiao Wu looked at the ten-thousand-year holy spirit cat before her with some surprise.

Like the soft bone rabbit, the holy spirit cat was one of the weaker species in the Star Dou Forest. However, the holy spirit cat was even more timid than the soft bone rabbit; never mind other spirit beasts, they could even scare themselves.

Under normal circumstances, this type of spirit beast would often exhaust itself to death from sheer fright while fleeing, so it was rare for them to end up as a human's spirit ring.

Because they were so timid and spent most of their time running away, they rarely cultivated, which was why there were almost no holy spirit cats over a thousand years old—most were only ten or a hundred years old.

Yet this one actually possessed ten thousand years of cultivation!

"Perhaps it was just lucky," Ah Rou said.

Having cultivated for tens of thousands of years, she understood better than anyone that strength didn't matter; surviving was the only truth that counted.

The more powerful a spirit beast was, the more combative it tended to be. Over the tens of thousands of years, she had witnessed too many powerful spirit beasts. Those beasts didn't lack the potential to cultivate to a hundred thousand years, but their aggressive nature led them to perish in fights and struggles long before they could reach that point.

"Then, why don't we let it stay with us in the future?" Xiao Wu suggested.

Ah Rou helplessly patted Xiao Wu's head. "Xiao Wu, holy spirit cats are very timid. They don't even gather with their own kind, let alone stay with us."

"But when I called out to it just now, it didn't run away immediately," Xiao Wu said, stroking the little cat's belly.

"This holy spirit cat must not be as timid as the others."

"Then, when it wakes up, we'll see if it's willing to stay," Ah Rou said.

"Mm." Xiao Wu nodded and carried the unconscious kitten back into the house.

"..."

How come I feel like such a scumbag?

Nan Feng, in his soul state, floated to the side. Watching the way the mother and daughter treated him, he felt somewhat conflicted about what he was about to do.

Damn it! He really wasn't a good person!

He was truly worse than a beast!

After a moment of self-loathing, Nan Feng turned and flew toward the outer perimeter of the Star Dou Forest, in the direction of Bibi Dong.

By dusk, Bibi Dong and her two companions, having concealed their auras, quietly crept to the location Nan Feng had described.

Looking at the two humanoid spirit beasts before them, greed flashed uncontrollably in the eyes of Ju and Gui.

Although their spirit rings were already full, a hundred thousand year soul bone...

Before the thought could fully form, both of them consciously slammed on the brakes.

Bibi Dong was now a level 97 peak douluo!

Furthermore, her second martial soul, the soul-eater spider emperor, still had three empty slots. Even if they captured both of these humanoid spirit beasts, it wouldn't be enough, so they didn't even dare to entertain the idea.

"Your Holiness, according to the hunting team's intelligence, they also spotted the King of the Forest, the titan giant ape, in this vicinity. If that thing appears, I fear there will be complications," Gui Mei said.

A hundred-thousand-year soul beast possessed strength at least comparable to a human peak douluo of level 95 or higher. Moreover, this was the Star Dou Forest, the home turf of soul beasts. If they triggered a beast stampede and drew out a swarm of ten-thousand-year soul beasts, they would be in grave danger.

In a one-on-one fight, a ten-thousand-year soul beast was no match for a title douluo, but once they appeared in swarms, let alone them, even those high priests would have to flee!

Human spirit masters were not as thick-skinned as soul beasts. If they were careless, there were plenty of cases where the ants could kill the elephant!

"Ignore it. Strike immediately," Bibi Dong said.

"Those two humanoid spirit beasts are currently off guard. Besides, with Nan Feng here, even if the larger one manages to escape, the smaller one won't be able to get away."

"This..." Yue Guan and his companion wore strange expressions.

Nan Feng's transformation spirit skill was truly unreasonable!

If they hadn't already witnessed it many times before, they truly wouldn't believe that such a peculiar martial soul ability existed!

It wasn't just the appearance; even the aura of the soul beast was identical!

Moreover, the cultivation level of Nan Feng after transforming into a soul beast actually rose in tandem with his own soul power level!

At first, Nan Feng could only transform into a hundred-year soul beast, but now, he was already capable of transforming into a ten-thousand-year soul beast!
