BOOM!

After a long while, Battle Tiger collapsed powerlessly.

Its massive body weighed over a thousand jin, making the ground seem to tremble.

The battle had lasted for a full hour.

Chen Feng and the others were mostly exhausted, sitting down wherever they could, gasping for breath.

Chen Feng himself was not much better off.

"Truly worthy of being a Battle Tiger nearing a thousand years!"

"It's damn strong!"

"Brothers, how is everyone? No missing arms or legs, right?"

Chen Feng's gaze swept over everyone present.

"None!"

"Although we were injured, Tang Yin healed us quickly!"

The others replied.

Hearing this, Chen Feng looked toward Tang Yin, a hint of gratitude appearing in his eyes.

"Tang Yin, thank you!"

"If it weren't for you, a healing-type Soul Master, even if we didn't die dealing with this Battle Tiger, I fear most of us would have been injured!"

Tang Yin smiled. "Since I joined, I am a part of this team, and this is what I should do."

Chen Feng smiled slightly.

He then finished off the Battle Tiger with a blade, and a yellow Soul Ring gradually emerged.

Chen Feng stared at the Soul Ring, his heart filled with excitement, and immediately began to absorb the Battle Tiger's Soul Ring.

The others were either recovering or keeping watch on the surroundings to prevent other soul beasts from appearing.

However, under normal circumstances, no other soul beasts would appear.

"Xiao Wu, let's go back and rest too."

Tang Yin looked back at the Battle Tiger once before taking Xiao Wu's hand and returning to the tent.

Xiao Wu glanced back at the Battle Tiger as she walked.

Chen Feng's absorption process lasted for a full three hours.

He did not wake up until the next morning.

After absorbing the Soul Ring, Chen Feng officially stepped into the ranks of the Soul Elder, distancing himself from the others in the team.

"Ugh, ah--!"

Chen Feng stretched his limbs, letting out a satisfied groan, his face full of smiles.

The resting group was also drawn by the commotion, and one by one, they stepped forward to congratulate him.

Tang Yin also woke up from his meditation.

"What's all that noise outside?" Xiao Wu stretched, rubbed her eyes, and asked with a frown.

Tang Yin smiled slightly and explained, "The Soul Ring absorption is finished; they are celebrating."

"Does that mean we can leave this place now?" Xiao Wu asked.

"Yes," Tang Yin replied.

However, at this moment.

The discussion among the people outside instantly caught his attention.

"Captain, I think it would be better to take this Torso Soul Bone to a big city to sell it and split the proceeds equally. What do you think?" A man surnamed Li said. Although he still used the respectful "you," his tone was very flat.

"Old Li makes sense. To defeat this Battle Tiger, everyone put in the effort and hovered on the edge of death. The previously agreed-upon rewards are nothing compared to this Torso Soul Bone," another person chimed in, staring fixedly at the Torso Soul Bone from the Battle Tiger in Chen Feng's hand.

Treasures like Soul Bones were always priceless and extremely rare in the Soul Master world.

Once one appeared, it would inevitably spark a struggle.

A normal set of Soul Bones consists of six parts: the head, the torso, and the four limbs.

Among them, the torso bone is the most important and valuable of the six.

"You--!" Chen Feng narrowed his eyes slightly.

At this moment.

Tang Yin opened a gap in the tent, looking at the people outside with eyes full of shock.

He could feel the heavy atmosphere even from inside the tent.

"Tang Yin, what's going on?"

Xiao Wu leaned in beside Tang Yin, looking outside with curiosity.

"Something isn't right."

"A Soul Bone appeared after that Battle Tiger died, and these people seem to be arguing over it."

Tang Yin frowned as he spoke.

"A Soul Bone?"

"Are they fighting over it? Aren't they teammates? Didn't they just fight side by side?"

Xiao Wu was stunned.

"Don't speak. Pack our things. We're leaving quietly; we shouldn't get involved with them."

Tang Yin slowly retreated and began stowing away everything they could carry into his Soul Tool.

"Tang Yin, don't you want that Soul Bone?" Xiao Wu asked curiously, staring outside.

"I do, but I need to be alive to use it!" Tang Yin smiled helplessly.

"Hey, hey! Tang Yin, they're actually fighting! Seven of them are ganging up on Chen Feng!" Xiao Wu exclaimed.

Hearing this, Tang Yin leaned in to look outside.

Sure enough.

Just as Xiao Wu said, the eight people who had been so harmonious were now locked in a brawl.

Chen Feng was fighting the other seven all by himself.

"I was almost fooled by these people after spending these past few days with them," Tang Yin muttered to himself.

Worried that the conflict between the eight would spill over to him and Xiao Wu, Tang Yin didn't hesitate any longer. He grabbed Xiao Wu, rushed out of the tent, and bolted into the dense forest.

Chen Feng and the others noticed Tang Yin and Xiao Wu's movements, but they didn't care.

Or rather, the departure of Tang Yin and Xiao Wu was exactly what they wanted.

After all, one more person meant one more variable.

However.

They didn't know that Tang Yin and Xiao Wu hadn't gone very far.

Three hundred meters away, Tang Yin pulled Xiao Wu into a thicket of bushes and activated his Blue Silver Domain to watch the eight-way struggle for the Soul Bone.

Xiao Wu didn't understand the situation and asked in surprise, "Tang Yin, what are we doing here? Aren't we supposed to be leaving the Soul Hunting Forest?"

Tang Yin smiled and explained, "I have an ability called the Blue Silver Domain. It allows me to control the Blue Silver Grass within a five-hundred-meter radius. These blades of grass can act as my eyes, so I can still see the fight between Chen Feng and the others from here."

Xiao Wu's eyes widened in surprise upon hearing this: "That's amazing!"

Tang Yin patted Xiao Wu's head: "This is my secret. No one else knows about it except you, so you must keep it a secret."

Xiao Wu's pretty face turned red instantly, not just because of what Tang Yin said, but also because of his gesture.

"Does your father know?"

Tang Yin nodded: "He doesn't know either."

Xiao Wu blushed and said repeatedly, "Tang Yin, don't worry, I will definitely keep my mouth shut! And thank you for trusting me so much!"

Tang Yin smiled slightly.

"Tang Yin, is there any way you can let me see it too?" Xiao Wu asked.

"I should be able to in the future. The Blue Silver Domain has great potential, but I haven't fully developed it yet," Tang Yin explained.

Xiao Wu sighed: "That's a pity."

Tang Yin shook his head with a laugh, then focused his full attention on the fight between the eight.

Although Chen Feng had broken through to the Soul Elder realm, he was facing seven Soul Grand Masters.

Even though these people had gone through a fierce battle earlier, they had recovered most of their strength after three hours of rest.

In less than half an incense stick's time, Chen Feng was completely on the defensive.

"If Chen Feng drops the Soul Bone and flees alone today, he might have a slim chance of survival."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid he's going to die here."

Tang Yin's expression was serious as he spoke in a low voice.

"I really didn't expect that the people who were fighting side by side earlier would now be killing each other over a single Soul Bone."

Xiao Wu found it hard to understand.
