Azure Sky Dragon Turtle! A Soul Bone Dropped!
The four had entered the Star Dou Forest a week ago and had now reached the boundary between its middle and inner regions.
They had encountered several Soul Beasts along the way, but none possessed Dragon Clan bloodlines, so they had let them go.
"If we can't find one, let's rest for a while. Dragon-type Soul Beasts aren't easy to find in the first place," Li Yusong said.
Just as everyone was about to take a break, the ground suddenly began to tremble.
Even the little stones on the ground bounced up and down.
"Judging by those vibrations, there seems to be a powerful Soul Beast nearby."
"Stay here. I'll take a look from the sky."
Flender summoned his Four-Eyed Owl Martial Soul Possession and shot into the sky.
Before long, he spotted a massive turtle-type Soul Beast charging in their direction a kilometer away.
"This is... an Azure Sky Dragon Turtle!"
"I never thought this kind of Soul Beast still existed. It's considered a rare species!"
"Judging by its aura, it's at least at the twenty-thousand-year level!"
"The Azure Sky Dragon Turtle has Dragon Clan bloodlines. It's perfect for Xiao Fei's third Soul Ring!"
Flender muttered.
Normally, a twenty-thousand-year Soul Ring was something a Soul Emperor would absorb.
For a Soul Elder to absorb one now was more than enough.
He descended to the ground.
"How was it?" Li Fei asked.
"It's an Azure Sky Dragon Turtle around twenty thousand years old," Flender said.
"An Azure Sky Dragon Turtle? I never expected this kind of Soul Beast to still exist. I haven't heard of one in years—I thought they had gone extinct. It's already a rare species, and it's extremely suitable as Xiao Fei's third Soul Ring!"
Zhao Wuji paused before adding, "The Azure Sky Dragon Turtle belongs to the ranks of super Soul Beasts! Though it is only around twenty thousand years old, its strength and defense are terrifying, far beyond what its age would suggest!"
He had traveled the continent for many years and was immensely knowledgeable, so naturally, he had heard rumors about the Azure Sky Dragon Turtle.
Like the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, this thing belonged to the super Soul Beast tier!
It specialized in incredibly powerful defense, with attack power coming second! It was not skilled in speed!
Speed was basically the weakness of all turtle-type creatures.
"Xiao Fei, what do you think?" The three of them turned their gazes toward Li Fei.
"Fine. It's the one." Li Fei nodded.
Everyone summoned their Martial Souls and charged straight ahead.
Although the Azure Sky Dragon Turtle was not good at speed, that was only relative to other Soul Beasts. It was still extremely fast compared to ordinary human Soul Masters.
It could move at ten meters per second.
Its body was enormous. As it hurried away, it found a huge lake and intended to dive beneath its surface.
But at that moment, four human figures appeared ahead of it.
The Azure Sky Dragon Turtle's expression changed slightly.
It intended to jump straight into the lake. It had no desire to become a human Soul Master's Soul Ring.
But just then, a dragon's roar sounded from within its bloodline.
The blood throughout its entire body trembled, and it felt terror along with an urge to kneel in worship.
This discovery startled it. Looking again, one of the figures was no longer human, but a massive Azure Dragon staring at it with the gaze of an absolute superior.
It was as though a grandson had met his great-great-great-great ancestor, and it immediately fell to its knees and kowtowed in worship.
"This... it really is like that!"
"Then, barring any surprises, everything will be easy from here on out. We won't even need to exert ourselves."
"Hunting Xiao Fei's Soul Ring will basically involve no danger."
Flender, Li Yusong, and Zhao Wuji all smiled.
Sure enough, the next second, the Azure Sky Dragon Turtle raised its head to the sky and kicked once, as though it had realized its mission had arrived.
Then it collapsed to the ground and transformed into a black Soul Ring.
If that's the case, could I directly seek out the Sky Azure Bull Python and have a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast sacrifice itself to me?
A mad thought suddenly flashed through Li Fei's mind.
But the important matter at hand came first.
He quickly arrived at the center of the Soul Ring, guided it into his Azure Dragon Staff, and began circulating the Eastern Azure Dragon Art to absorb it.
This absorption went very smoothly as well.
His physical body had already reached an extremely powerful level.
Moreover, because there was no spiritual resentment, he completed the absorption in just the time it took to burn an incense stick.
As the Soul Ring was fully absorbed, the third shackle within his body was also undone, and the third soul skill bestowed upon him by the Eastern Azure Dragon emerged!
His third soul skill was an extremely powerful defensive skill named Azure Dragon Protection!
Buzz!
Three Soul Rings emerged from his body.
Purple, black, black!
An absurd Soul Ring configuration.
A six-year-old, three-ring Soul Elder!
Li Yusong could no longer wait. Holding the Soul Testing Ball, he walked up to him. "Xiao Fei, come test yourself."
"Alright."
Xiao Fei extended his hand and touched it.
Buzz!
As light flashed, a string of numbers appeared.
Level thirty-seven!
"Level thirty-seven. Not bad," Li Fei muttered inwardly.
"A six-year-old at level thirty-seven, haha! An unparalleled genius! Tell me, who else is there?" Li Yusong burst into laughter.
Flender and Zhao Wuji were even more excited.
"At this rate, won't Xiao Fei become a Title Douluo before the age of twenty?"
The two said it jokingly.
"Twenty is too long. I want to become a Title Douluo at ten," Li Fei said.
"Uh... hahahahaha!!"
"Xiao Fei knows how to joke now!"
After hearing that, the three exchanged looks and immediately burst into laughter.
There was no helping it. A ten-year-old Title Douluo? Even if Li Fei's talent was incredible, that was absolutely impossible!
After all, cultivation slowed down starting from the Soul Elder realm, and the farther one advanced, the more pronounced that became.
They had experienced it firsthand, so they naturally understood this!
Their reaction was also within Li Fei's expectations, and he did not react much. After all, it really did sound unbelievable.
A ten-year-old Title Douluo? What did they think this was, some female-oriented novel?
Still, Li Fei truly intended to give it a try.
Although he knew that after reaching the Soul Elder realm, every level and every major realm afterward would slow his cultivation, he believed in the power of the Eastern Azure Dragon Art and the Eastern Azure Dragon.
There was no harm in having it as a goal. On the contrary, it would push his cultivation progress further.
Li Fei began searching the Azure Sky Dragon Turtle's corpse to see whether he could find a Soul Bone.
But unfortunately, he found nothing.
Slightly disappointed, Li Fei shook his head.
Such a rare super Soul Beast, and a twenty-thousand-year one at that, had not dropped a Soul Bone. It seemed his luck truly was not very good.
Just as he was about to give up and leave, he scraped with his blade once more and suddenly saw a glowing Torso Bone.
"This is... a Soul Bone! There really is one!"
Li Fei took it out.
However, it was only a twenty-thousand-year Soul Bone, and it was a Torso Bone, an important piece. He did not intend to absorb it.
"A twenty-thousand-year Torso Bone. Which one of you wants to absorb it?"
Li Fei showed the Soul Bone to the three of them.
"I didn't expect a Soul Bone to drop!"
"You should absorb it. You'll be able to bring out even greater power!"
Flender and the others' eyes lit up. They all wanted it, but after thinking it over, they shook their heads.
If Li Fei absorbed this Soul Bone, he could definitely raise his Soul Power further.
"The Torso Bone is an important piece. I don't intend to absorb it, and twenty thousand years is too low. Once I absorb it, I won't be able to absorb a better one if I find it in the future." Li Fei shook his head. More importantly, one defensive soul skill was already enough for him.
Although Azure Dragon Protection sounded like a simple name, its effects were anything but simple!
