Ten-Thousand-Year Heavenly Dragon Horse, Encountering a Spider Emperor Hunt (Part 1)

After listening to Yu Changge's reasonable and well-founded words, Yue Guan couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

He had indeed been somewhat prejudiced, overlooking Yu Changge's abnormal physical attributes and his Soul Ring Configuration that far surpassed that of ordinary geniuses.

Furthermore, with the added blessing of that Spirit-Condensing Wisdom Skull over nearly 70,000 years, his spiritual power is unfathomably profound.

If one were to forcibly absorb a Fourth Soul Ring that is just over ten thousand years old, theoretically speaking, it doesn't seem to be a very big problem.

Just as Yue Guan was about to nod in agreement, Bibi Dong, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up.

She raised her delicate chin and said crisply, "Since Brother Changge wants to absorb the Fourth Soul Ring, then I want one too!"

Upon hearing Yue Guan was immediately shocked and waved his hands in refusal. "No, absolutely not, this is too absurd!"

"Changge's situation is special. He has a high-quality skull that is specifically designed to amplify his spiritual power, which can withstand the Soul Shock brought by the Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring."

"Besides, his physical condition is perfectly fine. Dong'er, even though you have Twin Martial Souls, you can't risk your life like this..."

However, Yue Guan had not finished speaking.

Suddenly, a burst of purplish-black light erupted from Bibi Dong's forehead.

"Head Spirit Bone? I have one too. My teacher gave it to me before we set off." Bibi Dong smiled smugly, a sly glint in her eyes.

"Moreover, my second and third Soul Ring are also at the thousand-year level. Now that I have such a high-quality Head Spirit Bone for protection, I think I should be able to do it too."

Yue Guan stared blankly at the purplish-black light on Bibi Dong's forehead.

Immediately afterwards, an undisguised feeling of envy welled up from the bottom of his heart.

He finally managed to obtain a 30,000-year-old Left Leg Bone from the Pope.

And how old are Yu Changge and Bibi Dong? They each possess an incredibly precious Head Spirit Bone!

Especially Bibi Dong, who currently has no achievements to speak of, is entitled to possess such a inherited Spirit Bone simply because she is Qian Xunji's disciple.

Moreover, according to Yue Guan's perception, the fluctuations emanating from Bibi Dong's skull were of even higher quality than those from Yu Changge's skull!

"Sigh, it's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy," Yue Guan sighed helplessly to herself.

Now that things have come to this, he naturally has no reason to stop it.

These two extraordinary individuals want to break the mold, and as their protector, he has no choice but to accompany them to the end.

"In that case, Dong'er, have you decided what kind of spirit beast you want to choose for your Fourth Soul Ring?" Yue Guan asked, turning his head.

Bibi Dong did not answer directly, but instead turned her gaze to Yu Changge beside her.

Regarding the theory of soul beasts, she now completely trusts Yu Changge's judgment.

Yu Changge pondered for a moment and said, "For Dong'er, the best choice is a spider-type Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that matches her own attributes as the Death Spider Emperor."

"The Death Spider Emperor's three Soul Skill are more than sufficient in terms of control and poison spread. However, judging from her Soul Fighting training over the past few months, she lacks an effective means of delivering a decisive blow."

"Therefore, the best choice for the Fourth Soul Ring is a spider-type spirit beast with powerful single-target or group burst attack capabilities."

"For example, the infamous Man Faced Demon Spider, or the Earth Cave Demon Spider."

Yu Changge added, "Of course, spider-type soul beasts are cunning creatures that combine control and attack."

Whether or not you can ultimately obtain a powerful offensive Soul Skill depends largely on luck during the absorption process.

Yue Guan nodded in agreement. "Alright, then our targets will be the Heavenly Dragon Horse and top-tier spider-type soul beasts."

Ten days later.

After a long journey, the three finally arrived at the outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.

Yue Guan's expression turned unusually serious. He turned around and solemnly instructed the two of them, "The soul beasts you two need this time not only have high age requirements, but are also quite rare in species."

"To find the Heavenly Dragon Horse and the Man Faced Demon Spider, which are just over ten thousand years old, we need to delve deeper into the Star Dou Forest, and may even have to venture to the edge of the dangerous core area."

"The number of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast there is enormous, and their territorial instincts are extremely strong, far surpassing those of the lower-age soul beasts in the outer areas."

Yue Guan paused, then continued, "If we encounter a soul beast with a cultivation level of over 50,000 years as we venture deeper, for your safety, we'd better run, understand?"

Facing a soul beast that is over 50,000 years old, Yue Guan could certainly kill it, but it would definitely not be an easy task.

His biggest concern was that the aftershocks of the battle between the two sides might accidentally affect and harm Yu Changge and Bibi Dong.

Moreover, among soul beasts that can reach the cultivation level of 50,000 years, very few are already beast kings.

For example... the Human-Faced Demon Spider Emperor, whose cultivation level reached 50,000 years.

Ordinary soul beasts need to reach the Hundred-Thousand-Year Tier to be entitled to the title of Emperor, but the Man Faced Demon Spider became Emperor after only 50,000 years!

A king of this caliber would absolutely have other low-level soul beasts as subordinates.

If it were just one or two Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Yue Guan could easily handle them and protect the two of them.

However, if the number of his underlings is too large, forming a terrifying horde of soul beasts attacking him, then even if he is incredibly powerful, Yu Changge and Bibi Dong could still be injured at any time in the chaotic battle.

Yu Changge nodded seriously and agreed, "Uncle Yue, if we encounter a group of soul beasts that we cannot defeat or that are too numerous, we should retreat and not be reckless."

Bibi Dong nodded in agreement, indicating that she would follow Yue Guan's orders.

"Alright, let's go in now. Stay alert and stay close to me." Yue Guan his hand and led the way into the Star Dou Forest.

As the three of them ventured deeper, the surrounding light gradually dimmed.

The towering ancient trees blocked out the sun, and the thick vines coiled around the forest like giant pythons.

Five full days have passed.

During their five-day search, they also encountered a lone Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Unfortunately, the attributes and type of that soul beast were not suitable for Yu Changge and Bibi Dong to absorb.

To avoid further complications, Yue Guan did not kill him, but simply drove him away.

After driving away the uninvited guest, the three could only patiently continue searching for their target in the vast forest.

That afternoon, Yue Guan, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped.

He frowned slightly, closed his eyes to sense the situation carefully, and then whispered, "There's movement ahead."
