Successful Capture, Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger!

Lin Qingfeng naturally would not let Lin Fan deal with a thousand-year spirit beast, so he reached out and summoned a long sword into his hand.

A pale blue radiance shimmered, the entire blade as brilliant and translucent as ice crystal, with two yellow, two purple, and three black spirit rings manifesting above the sword body.

In an instant, Lin Qingfeng's entire aura shifted, and sharp sword intent began to spill uncontrollably from his body.

Without even needing to release a spirit skill, Lin Qingfeng swung his sword, and pale blue spirit power mixed with frost surged toward the mutated Vajra Tiger.

In a flash, the Vajra Tiger's pupils contracted violently, and it scrambled to retreat.

But how could a mere thousand-year spirit beast match the speed of sword intent?

Almost instantly, the pale blue sword intent swept across its body.

Had Lin Qingfeng not controlled the force of his strike, the Vajra Tiger would likely have been severed in two on the spot.

Even so, the cold air spread across its body at an incredible speed.

Crack—crack—

In just two or three breaths, frost had frozen more than half of its body.

"Roar!"

The tiger's roar sounded once more, and purple light bloomed within the mutated Vajra Tiger's pupils, erupting with astonishing power that instantly melted and dispelled the frost from its body.

However, after dispelling the frost, the purple light in its pupils dimmed completely.

"Hahaha, there really is something wrong with it!"

"But, wanting to run? That is nothing but a pipe dream!"

Lin Qingfeng had been on guard; seeing the mutated Vajra Tiger break free from the frost, he flicked his wrist. The frost sword trembled slightly, and dozens of sword shadows formed entirely of condensed frost appeared.

Those sword shadows were arranged neatly in a circular wheel, and the next moment, they shot out like arrows released from a bowstring.

Puchi! Puchi!

The frost sword shadows were incomparably sharp, instantly piercing into the fleeing mutated Vajra Tiger and causing blood to spray.

Not only that, but the cold air surged once more, freezing the entire mutated Vajra Tiger in place.

"Done!"

Lin Qingfeng retracted his frost-condensed sword martial soul, his aura immediately turning inward. He smiled and said to Lin Fan, "I have heavily wounded it. Quickly, try to see if you can capture it."

"Right!"

Lin Fan did not hesitate, taking the opportunity to throw the Poké Ball at the frozen mutated Vajra Tiger's head.

Whoosh—

Bang!

As the Poké Ball was thrown, it immediately emitted a beam of light, drawing the entire frozen mutated Vajra Tiger inside.

The Poké Ball then hit the ground, bouncing like a rubber ball.

Ding—

Ding—

With every bounce, the light on the Poké Ball grew brighter.

Lin Fan's heart rate accelerated, his breathing grew rapid, and his gaze remained fixed like a torch on the Poké Ball.

Swish—

After bouncing several times, a brilliant radiance emerged from the Poké Ball, and then it came to a complete stop.

A panel quietly appeared before Lin Fan.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully capturing the special mutated spirit beast: Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger. Progress for capturing thousand-year spirit beasts increased by an additional +9!]

[Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger (Juvenile)]

[Spirit Power: 1300 years of cultivation]

[Note: After a successful capture, a contract is automatically signed. Furthermore, if crafted into a martial soul or spirit ring, it will likewise be bound by contract to the absorber.]

"Hm?!"

"Capturing a special mutated spirit beast provides additional progress?"

Blinking, Lin Fan moved his thoughts to inspect his own panel.

[Host: Lin Fan]

[Spirit Power: Level 10]

[Martial Soul: Poké Ball]

[Spirit Rings: None]

[Soul Ring: None]

[Current Pet: Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger (Can be consumed with soul power to craft into a Martial Soul or Soul Ring)]

[Currently Captured Pets: 0 100-year soul beasts, 10 1000-year soul beasts]

"!!!"

As expected, the requirement for ten 1000-year soul beasts had been met immediately after capturing a single mutated soul beast.

Originally, Lin Fan had felt that catching 100 100-year soul beasts would be a chore, but now it seemed that as long as he encountered a few more mutated soul beasts, it would be simple.

"How is it? Did you succeed?"

Just as Lin Fan was deep in thought, Lin Qingfeng asked softly, his eyes filled with curiosity.

"I succeeded."

Lin Fan did not hesitate; he stepped forward to pick up the Poké Ball, and in an instant, a connection with the Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger emerged in his mind.

He could sense every emotion of the Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger, transmit information, and control its actions.

Unfortunately, the injuries the soul beast sustained before capture would not recover automatically; it required treatment.

At this moment, a question suddenly occurred to Lin Fan.

In the game, there were Pokemon Centers that could restore a Pokemon's health, but now that he had arrived in the Douluo Continent, how was he supposed to heal the soul beasts he captured?

By waiting for time to pass?

Or by using the various recovery potions, pills, and medicinal herbs of soul masters?

"Its injuries are quite severe, so I can't summon it to fight for now, but I can indeed control it."

Collecting his thoughts, Lin Fan said to Lin Qingfeng, "Father, I can capture even more soul beasts! It doesn't have to be 1000-year ones; 100-year ones will do as well."

"Good!"

Although he didn't understand why Lin Fan wanted to capture 100-year soul beasts—after all, in Lin Qingfeng's view, since he could capture 1000-year ones, he should focus on those to make his combat power even more formidable—Lin Fan had shown exceptional intelligence since he was young, so Lin Qingfeng didn't ask further.

"After I capture 100-year soul beasts, I want to try and see if I can turn them into Martial Souls or Soul Rings. If I can, I'll be able to sell them to others."

Lin Fan was determined to sell Martial Souls and the like; that was the fastest way to make money and acquire good items.

Therefore, Lin Fan would not hide these basic functions from his parents or anyone else.

"You can even turn captured soul beasts into Martial Souls and Soul Rings?"

"Hiss... In this world, there actually exists such a Martial Soul?!"

His eyelids twitched violently, and a premonition inevitably arose in Lin Qingfeng's heart: perhaps this Martial Soul would completely change the world of soul masters!

It was already monstrous without a Soul Ring; if it absorbed a Soul Ring, would the effects of the Poké Ball become even more heaven-defying?

Thinking of this, Lin Qingfeng said in a deep voice, "Then do you have any ideas regarding the choice of Soul Ring? We must test and see what kind of Soul Ring this special Martial Soul can absorb!"

"Let's look for 100-year soul beasts first. When I find a suitable one, I'll try to see if I can absorb it."

Lin Fan placed the Poké Ball containing the Thunder-Flame Vajra Tiger into his Soul Tool, and just as he was about to speak, a panel abruptly appeared before him.
