"There aren't many soul beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest for me to choose from, and this Demon Soul Tree Demon, over seven hundred years old, is quite rare. If I miss this chance, I fear I won't find another suitable one. I can't let it go."
Tang Yin thought to himself, then said to Chen Feng: "Uncle Chen, my soul skill can provide continuous healing for you all. I also have some strong liquor prepared in advance; using fire to attack the Demon Soul Tree Demon will make things much easier."
Chen Feng looked at Tang Yin in surprise: "You even know to use fire attacks? You're certainly well-prepared."
The others were also quite astonished by this.
"Since that's the case, very well!"
"Brothers, get ready to move! Help little Tang take down this Demon Soul Tree Demon!"
After a moment of contemplation, Chen Feng made up his mind and was the first to initiate Martial Soul Possession.
In an instant, Chen Feng's already tall frame became even more burly. Features of a Saber-toothed Tiger appeared on him, and two soul rings—one white and one yellow—circled his body.
Seeing this, the others also released their martial souls and soul rings one after another.
They were all beast-type martial souls, Soul Grand Master level, and their soul rings were all the same one-white, one-yellow configuration.
As beast-type martial souls, it is very difficult to kill a beast-type soul beast over a hundred years old for a first soul ring without the assistance of a strong expert.
"Xiao Wu, stay by my side and just throw these bottles."
Tang Yin said softly.
He immediately took out several bottles wrapped in cloth strips and lit them.
"Got it!"
Xiao Wu took the lit bottles from Tang Yin's hands and threw them hard at the Demon Soul Tree Demon.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Several bottles smashed against the main trunk of the Demon Soul Tree Demon, erupting into fierce flames.
Sensing danger, the Demon Soul Tree Demon whipped its branches around wildly, attacking indiscriminately while trying its best to extinguish the fire on its body.
"Attack! Attack!"
At Chen Feng's command, he charged toward the Demon Soul Tree Demon first, with the others following closely behind.
"Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap--!"
Even though Chen Feng and his group had the advantage in numbers and the Demon Soul Tree Demon was being scorched by flames, it still displayed formidable attack power.
Branches extended and lashed out at Chen Feng and the others.
Even when they missed and struck the ground, they left deep gouges in the earth.
"Xiao Wu, don't go up there, lest you get hurt!"
Xiao Wu wanted to go up and help, but Tang Yin grabbed her.
"Tang Yin, they've all gone up. If I don't, won't people gossip?"
Xiao Wu really wanted to help, but seeing Tang Yin's concerned expression, her tone softened: "Just let me go~"
"Eight *Soul Grand Master*s dealing with one Demon Soul Tree Demon—there's no need for us to go up and help." Tang Yin narrowed his eyes, staring at the front line, and added: "Conserve your strength for now to deal with any unforeseen events."
Hearing this, Xiao Wu thought for a moment and dismissed the idea of going up to help.
What Tang Yin said was not without reason.
If eight *Soul Grand Master*s couldn't take down a seven-hundred-year-old Demon Soul Tree Demon, they might as well quit.
Besides, Tang Yin's safety was more important.
"Xiao Wu, watch for the right moment and throw me out."
"I'll finish off the Demon Soul Tree Demon with one strike of my Forging Hammer."
Tang Yin was eager to act, gripping his Forging Hammer in his left hand, ready to strike.
"Okay!"
Xiao Wu narrowed her eyes, keeping a close watch on the state of the Demon Soul Tree Demon.
Just as the Demon Soul Tree Demon was on the verge of death, she instantly activated her first soul skill, Waist Bow.
Her lithe body assumed an astonishing posture, her long, jade-like legs wrapping around Tang Yin, and she flung him toward the Demon Soul Tree Demon with great force.
At the very moment the others were surrounding the Demon Soul Tree Demon, Tang Yin flew into mid-air, gripping his Forging Hammer and smashing it down with all his might.
"Rumble--!"
A deafening roar echoed in all directions.
The main trunk of the Demon Soul Tree Demon, already scorched by fire and besieged by Chen Feng and the others, had reached its end.
With one blow from Tang Yin's hammer, the Demon Soul Tree Demon was snapped in two at the waist.
"What immense strength!"
This shocking scene left Chen Feng and the others dumbfounded.
"Boom!"
The upper half of the Demon Soul Tree Demon collapsed to the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
A yellow soul ring gradually began to form.
It hovered beside the roots of the Demon Soul Tree Demon.
"Extinguish the fire!"
Chen Feng gave the order, and the others immediately began to put out the flames to prevent them from spreading.
Tang Yin was quite surprised to see this.
In order to demonstrate his usefulness, Tang Yin was the first to release his first soul skill, Light of Recovery.
As the Blue Silver Emperor released eight streams of blue-silver light that sank into the bodies of Chen Feng and the other seven, the wounds left on them by the Demon Soul Tree Demon began to heal rapidly.
In just a few breaths, the wounds on their bodies vanished completely; the speed of the healing was nothing short of terrifying.
Upon realizing this, Chen Feng and the others were both surprised and delighted.
"Blue Silver Grass has always been called a trash martial soul; I never expected that taking an auxiliary path would yield such incredible results!"
Chen Feng clicked his tongue in wonder.
The others also stared at the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul in Tang Yin's hand with expressions of shock.
And when they caught a glimpse of the Forging Hammer in Tang Yin's left hand, they exclaimed in even greater amazement.
"Little Tang, that hammer strike of yours just now really gave us all a fright!" Chen Feng remarked with emotion.
Tang Yin explained nonchalantly, "My family works in blacksmithing, so I've trained up some strength. Since my Blue Silver Grass martial soul lacks attack power, I can only carry a hammer with me to deal with danger."
The corner of Chen Feng's mouth twitched slightly; he remained silent, simply giving a silent thumbs-up.
"I am going to begin absorbing the Demon Soul Tree Demon's soul ring now; I ask that you all please stand guard for me," Tang Yin said, cupping his hands in a salute.
Chen Feng laughed, "Go ahead and absorb it, don't worry."
Tang Yin nodded and sat cross-legged.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu silently moved to Tang Yin's side to stand guard, her gaze sweeping the surroundings from time to time while observing the actions of Chen Feng and his group.
At this moment.
Chen Feng walked over, picked up Tang Yin's Forging Hammer to weigh it in his hand, and then looked at the Demon Soul Tree Demon that had been smashed in half, exclaiming in astonishment, "This Forging Hammer only weighs about thirty kilograms; how could it unleash such powerful force!?"
"Boss, let me try." One of the men came before Chen Feng, took the Forging Hammer, and weighed it in his hand, only to feel the same shock as Chen Feng.
Seeing this, the others all took turns trying it out.
They did not know that Tang Yin was using the techniques of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, which allowed force to be stacked layer upon layer.
In the end, they reached a unanimous conclusion: Tang Yin possessed a great deal of raw strength.
Two full hours passed, and with the sky nearly dark, Tang Yin finally finished absorbing the soul ring.
Two yellow soul rings circled around Tang Yin.
Chen Feng and the other eight watched this scene, envious to the point of death.
"Brother Little Tang is a two-ring Soul Grand Master at such a young age; he truly has extraordinary talent and a boundless future!"
Even without asking, based solely on their appearance, Chen Feng and the others could judge that Tang Yin and Xiao Wu were roughly the same age, certainly no older than twelve.
"You flatter me, Uncle Chen. I must thank you all; if it weren't for the help of you and the other uncles and sisters, I wouldn't have been able to obtain the Demon Soul Tree Demon's soul ring."
Tang Yin displayed an honest, shy, and humble demeanor, and Chen Feng and the others all smiled kindly.
"Let's all rest here tonight. This is the territory of the Demon Soul Tree Demon; we should be able to use its lingering aura to pass the night safely," Chen Feng said.
The others agreed in unison.
Tang Yin couldn't help but marvel at the wealth of experience possessed by Chen Feng and his group.
He had learned another trick.
