Half a month later, Azure Luan Elder brought Ying Chengfeng and the other two into the outskirts of the Far North.

There was one more person accompanying them.

It was none other than Ying Chengfeng's mother, Ji Qingyi.

After consuming the immortal herb Ying Chengfeng had given her, Ji Qingyi had successfully improved the quality of her Martial Soul.

This had also brought about an increase in her Soul Power Level.

Now, Ji Qingyi had reached level 80; she only needed to obtain her eighth soul ring to become a Soul Douluo.

Ji Qingyi had always been exceptionally beautiful, and now she was even more charming.

Dressed in green, she looked just like the cold and elegant Azure Luan Fairy.

"Qingyi, I will find a suitable soul ring for you first. From now on, you will be the one to protect these three children. I have been away from the Worship Hall for too long and must return immediately."

On a hillside covered in ice and snow, Azure Luan Elder said to Ji Qingyi.

Meanwhile, in an open space, Ying Chengfeng was leading Qian Renxue and Yu Feiyan in chopping down trees.

They needed to build a shelter here.

The three had a clear division of labor and worked together quite efficiently.

Azure Luan Elder walked over at this moment and said to Ying Chengfeng, "Chengfeng, you three stay here and don't go anywhere. Your mother and I will go hunt for a soul ring and be right back."

Hearing this, Ying Chengfeng looked up at his grandfather and mother, saying, "Understood, go ahead."

His mother, Ji Qingyi, said with concern, "Usually, there won't be any overly powerful soul beasts here, but if you encounter any, take them and run, do you understand?"

Compared to Azure Luan Elder's confidence in Ying Chengfeng, mother Ji Qingyi was much more worried.

It was the kind of care and concern that arises regardless of how capable a child might be.

"I will." Ying Chengfeng nodded heavily.

Azure Luan Elder then said to Ji Qingyi, "Alright, this brat has plenty of ability. Let's hurry and hunt for that soul ring."

With that, the two departed under Ying Chengfeng's gaze.

Once they were gone, Ying Chengfeng put down the wood in his hands.

He stood up and said, "Let's look around the area; we might as well see if we can find a soul ring suitable for Yu Feiyan."

Qian Renxue looked at him and asked, "Are you not going to listen to your mother?"

Ying Chengfeng smiled at Qian Renxue and said, "My mom said if there are soul beasts, I should take you and run, but she didn't say I couldn't take you running if there aren't any."

"You can do that?" Yu Feiyan, standing to the side, was stunned. He was truly skilled at finding loopholes!

Qian Renxue then said, "Then what about your grandfather telling you not to wander off?"

Ying Chengfeng didn't answer, instead asking her, "If you could only listen to one person, would you listen to your grandfather or your mother?"

Qian Renxue fell into silence.

When her father was alive, he only made her cultivate and was extremely strict with her.

Her mother, on the other hand, detested her and couldn't even be bothered to care for her.

Only her grandfather showed her any real concern.

If she could only listen to one person, she would probably listen to her grandfather.

No!

If it were between Ying Chengfeng and her grandfather, she would listen to Ying Chengfeng.

But she kept these words in her heart and didn't voice them.

By now, Ying Chengfeng had already walked up to the hillside.

Looking down from the slope, one could see a small village.

If they had free time, he could bring Qian Renxue and Yu Feiyan down to play with children their own age.

At the same time, a group of people had entered that small village.

They were heading toward the snow-capped mountains.

Ying Chengfeng was naturally unaware of this.

He had already set off with Qian Renxue and Yu Feiyan.

Of the three, only Yu Feiyan wore an extra thick Purple Sable Sweater.

Ying Chengfeng and Qian Renxue had physical constitutions superior to ordinary people.

Ying Chengfeng wore his super-god gear, while Qian Renxue wore an additional thin black robe.

The snow-capped mountains stretched endlessly, and as the three walked forward, they left a trail of small footprints behind them.

The Far North was covered in snow year-round.

The vast majority of soul beasts here were of the ice attribute.

But if there were soul beasts that were not ice-attributed, it meant one thing.

To be able to manifest other attributes in an environment like the Far North.

Then it is easy to imagine that this Soul Beast is quite capable.

Theoretically, it is possible for Soul Beasts in the Far North to possess attributes that do not contradict the extreme cold energy of the region, such as light, wind, or mental attributes.

However, such Soul Beasts are also very difficult to find.

In three days, the three of them found no fewer than fifty types of Soul Beasts in the outer perimeter of the snowy mountains.

But without exception, none of them met the requirements.

They did encounter a few mental-attribute Soul Beasts, but they were all lazy gluttons.

Ying Chengfeng did not take a liking to any of them.

What he wanted was a Soul Beast that remained combative even in an extremely harsh environment.

On the fourth day, the trio led by Ying Chengfeng arrived in a snow valley.

They were immediately attracted by a uniquely shaped Soul Beast.

This Soul Beast walked upright and was grayish-white in color; it had a light blue, ice-crystal-like tail behind it, and a light red crystal on its forehead.

Its claws were incredibly sharp, and it was currently fighting a snow-white brown bear.

This brown bear stood over three meters tall, nearly five times the size of the other.

Yet, relying on its sharp claws, this mysterious Soul Beast was actually holding its own against the brown bear.

The two sides continued to battle fiercely, completely ignoring the outsiders who had arrived.

They roared from time to time, competing not just in combat power, but in sheer presence.

At this moment, Qian Renxue, who was watching the battle, said, "Both of them seem to be ice-attribute Soul Beasts; they aren't suitable for little sister Yu Feiyan."

Ying Chengfeng nodded, neither confirming nor denying, but he did not leave immediately either.

Instead, he stopped to watch the fight.

His gaze was locked firmly onto the mysterious Soul Beast's claws.

These claws did not seem to be of the ice attribute.

At this time, the battle between the two Soul Beasts gradually came to a halt.

They both seemed to realize that neither could do anything to the other.

The brown bear retreated first, and the mysterious Soul Beast chose not to pursue.

The mysterious Soul Beast then spotted Ying Chengfeng and the others, immediately revealing a guarded expression.

It backed away slowly, its eyes fixed intently on Ying Chengfeng.

"Hmph, stay put." Ying Chengfeng moved in a flash, immediately suppressing the mysterious Soul Beast.

Suddenly, the mysterious Soul Beast was unable to move, revealing a look of human-like terror.

This terror was something it had never felt even when facing a brown bear five times its size.

Ying Chengfeng pinned it to the ground with one hand and said to Yu Feiyan:

"Do you want to try absorbing this Soul Beast's Soul Ring?"

Yu Feiyan walked over, a look of slight confusion on her face.

Ying Chengfeng explained calmly, "This Soul Beast's claws are unusual; there might be a surprise, though it could also be disappointing."

"However, your Martial Soul is overly unique and lacks offensive capabilities, so you don't need specific soul skills. Use the energy from this Soul Beast's Soul Ring to improve the quality of your Martial Soul as much as possible."

As he spoke, Ying Chengfeng handed Yu Feiyan a blade.

Yu Feiyan hesitated for only a few seconds before preparing to strike the mysterious Soul Beast.

At this moment, a cold voice rang out from behind them:

"We at Tianshui Primary Soul Master Academy have taken a liking to this Soul Beast."

Hearing this, Ying Chengfeng turned his head to look.

A middle-aged woman was walking over slowly with three little girls.

"This is interesting~" Ying Chengfeng had sensed this group of one adult and three children long ago.
