A Pretty Girl

Only after jogging along behind Wei Fan did they realize just how terrifying this guy was.

That shot had traveled so fucking far!

Could he really kill a soul beast from that distance?

A short while later...

A deep crater suddenly appeared before them, with a soul beast inside that had already been blasted to pieces.

"Gulp..."

Huyan Li and the others were stunned by the sight.

An ultra-long-range sniper kill?

Wasn't that just too fucking terrifying?!

More importantly, there was the soul ring floating above the crater.

Black. Ten thousand years!

No matter how weak this Mirrorwater Flying Fox was, it was still a ten-thousand-year soul beast.

And Wei Fan had blown it to death with a single shot?

"Ah... Li, could you take a shot like that?"

Huyan Li shook his head.

Who the fuck could take his cannon blast?!

Even a defensive soul master like him, with his Diamond Mammoth, couldn't withstand it.

They were finding this freak Wei Fan harder and harder to fathom!

After glancing at the soul ring suspended in midair, Wei Fan turned his attention to a spot less than thirty meters from the crater. He spotted a black-clad figure lying in the grass.

"Luckily, she was only caught in the explosion, not hit by the shell."

As he spoke, Wei Fan walked toward the person dressed in black.

Well, damn!

It was a pretty girl, too!

Big!

Big... and so fair!

The girl lay in the grass, panting heavily. Clearly, she had been injured by the blast from that shell.

Her eyes glared viciously at Wei Fan as he approached.

"You..."

Before she could finish a sentence, the girl passed out in her fury.

"Hey, how are you doing?"

Wei Fan shifted his gaze and checked the girl's condition.

It was pretty serious!

There was also a puncture wound through her left shoulder. She must have been injured before the shell struck.

Without a second thought, Wei Fan picked her up and carried her to a flat rock nearby.

"Brother Wei Fan, you didn't blast this pretty girl to death, did you?"

Huyan Li glanced at her. It would be such a shame if a beauty like this died.

"She passed out. Luckily, her life isn't in danger!"

Wei Fan took a white jade bottle from his soul tool, pulled out two pills, and slipped them into the girl's mouth.

These were wound-healing pills he had bought at a shop on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest. They had no support-type soul master with them, so medicine like this was their only option.

"I'll go absorb the soul ring first. Keep an eye on her."

A soul ring would dissipate after half an hour. He could wait, but the ring couldn't.

"Brother Wei Fan, that's a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!"

Huyan Li spoke in astonishment.

A Soul Ancestor absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring? Was he insane?

"I know!"

If it weren't a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, he wouldn't even bother absorbing it.

"Forcing yourself to absorb a soul ring beyond your limit will make you explode!"

"Don't worry!"

Wei Fan wasted no more words. He formed seals with both hands and guided the soul ring onto himself.

All his previous soul rings had come from the system. This was his first time obtaining one by killing a soul beast.

Although he was a little clumsy, he managed to get the unruly soul ring around himself.

"Is Wei Fan really going to force himself to absorb a soul ring beyond his limit?"

"Looks like it!"

"If his body explodes, how are we supposed to explain it to the old sect master when we get back?"

"Explain, my ass! The old sect master will use us as sacrificial offerings!"

"This guy is way too reckless!"

"Should we try to talk him out of it?"

"Talk him out of it, my ass! He's already put the soul ring around himself. If he stops halfway, he'll become an idiot."

"What do we do now, then?"

"If anything happens to him, the sect master will beat the shit out of us."

"..."

At that moment, all seven members of the Elephant Armor Team had their eyes fixed on Wei Fan. His attempt to absorb the soul ring had them panicking like crazy.

He had seen a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and immediately started absorbing it. That was just too fucking reckless.

Wei Fan's sudden move had robbed them of even the desire to look at the pretty girl.

Huyan Li no longer envied Wei Fan for finding his fourth soul ring. Even if that ring were given to him, he wouldn't be able to absorb it.

Besides, even if its age were suitable, he wouldn't absorb a Mirrorwater Flying Fox's soul ring!

What he wanted was a soul ring provided by a purely defensive soul beast.

Something like a rhinoceros or a gorilla!

Half an hour later...

"Holy shit, he actually absorbed it!"

"He absorbed a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring in just half an hour?"

"What the hell is this freak made of?"

"And he didn't seem to struggle at all. It was completely smooth. Even a Soul King couldn't absorb a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring this easily, could they?"

"..."

Seeing Wei Fan successfully merge the soul ring into his martial soul left them all dumbfounded.

It was so fucking hard to believe!

Wei Fan was probably the first soul master on the Douluo Continent with a ten-thousand-year fourth ring.

Once they got back, he could show off like crazy again!

They were so envious!

"Who is this pretty girl?"

"She's so fucking unlucky!"

"Even walking through a soul beast forest, she had disaster falling out of the sky."

Only after seeing that Wei Fan had reached the final stage of absorbing the soul ring did the other members of the Elephant Armor Team turn their attention to the pretty girl behind them.

"Wei Fan's cannon shot was ridiculous!"

"He fired a shot from that far away and got it all over this girl's face."

The group spoke as they looked at the ice fragments on her face.

Luckily, she had only been caught in the shock wave from the explosion. If it had hit her directly, she would probably already be dead.

Wei Fan slowly opened his eyes as he emerged from absorbing the soul ring.

He took stock of his strength...

He had risen one level. He was now a level fifty-three Soul King.

With a slight stir of his mind, he examined his new soul skill, and it left him a little moved.

A flight-type soul skill?!

This skill was perfect for him!

The reason he had planned to add this Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring to his first martial soul was precisely to obtain the Mirrorwater Flying Fox's flight ability.

Although this soul beast was a fox, its flying speed was absurd, and it could remain airborne for an extremely long time.

In one short sentence: fast and long-lasting!

With this flight-type soul skill in hand, Wei Fan was delighted!

After finishing absorbing the soul ring, he shifted his gaze to the pretty girl lying unconscious on the rock.

"Brother Wei Fan, what's your fourth soul skill?"

Before Wei Fan could say anything, Huyan Li and the others had already run over.

They were simply too curious about what sort of soul skill Wei Fan's fourth soul ring had given him.

"You'll find out later!"

Wei Fan turned his gaze to the unconscious girl.

Both her lovely legs were broken. How was he supposed to explain this to her when she woke up?

There wasn't a support-type soul master among them, so they had no way to heal her.

Helpless, Wei Fan could only give the pretty girl some basic treatment for now!
