However, if one Sacrifice, not only can one perfectly absorb all the energy, but the Sacrifice will also bring about a comprehensive improvement, with an overall increase in spirit, Martial Soul, and physical body.
The boost from Sacrifice Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is more than twice that of forcibly hunting and absorbing it.
Of course, the most crucial element is the trace of divinity that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast gains when it undergoes Heavenly Tribulation.
The Ice Dragon King said that the trace of divinity was very important and would be of great help to him. It could only be obtained through Sacrifice. If he forcibly hunted it, the trace of divinity would dissipate when the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast died.
For others, the Soul Ring and Soul Bone of powerful Soul Beast are definitely better, because they bring powerful Soul Skill and Soul Bone Skill.
But for him, the value of Ah Rou and Xiao Wu's Sacrifice was definitely higher than his future forced hunting of the Sky Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape.
He doesn't need any Soul Skill. After becoming a god, who needs Soul Skill?
"I understand." Ah Rou's expression was somewhat complicated.
"I can Sacrifice myself at any time, but... can I let Xiao Wu Sacrifice last?"
"I don't care, you can discuss it," Xuan Ming said.
"Besides, I don't need it for now."
He's only a Soul Grandmaster; it would be too ostentatious for him to have two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring floating around him.
After all, it is common knowledge that Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring must carry Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
The allure of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone is enough to tempt too many people to take the gamble.
He didn't want to become Tang Sanzang's flesh.
Chapter 84 It Doesn't Hurt at All
Not far Nuoding City, at the foot of a deserted hillside.
To wait for Tang San, Xuan Ming temporarily stayed here. Because his appearance was inconvenient, he would go to secluded places to cultivate during the day, hiding himself, which made him somewhat uncomfortable.
For the first few days, Xuan Ming came out alone, but after a few days, Xiao Wu noticed that he kept running out of the city, and the bold little rabbit quietly followed him.
However, she didn't dare to speak to Xuan Ming; she just hid behind the hillside and watched, also helping to keep watch.
"Senior, are you... schizophrenic?"
I don't know where she got the courage, but while Xuan Ming was resting and cooking something, Xiao Wu tentatively came over.
"A little," Xuan Ming said.
Even disregarding the Ice Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King, he did indeed suffer from some form of mental schizophrenia due to this Martial Soul Mutation.
My brain has split into two.
"So you are... your new personality after transforming?" Xiao Wu asked tentatively.
When Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast transforms into human form, it's not simply a matter of dispersing its cultivation and rebuilding; its soul also undergoes a metamorphosis, no longer reverting to its former Soul Beast form.
But the way this person used to turn on the air conditioning is very different from how they do now.
He used to act all high and mighty, looking down at them with disdain, as if he were standing at the pinnacle of Soul Beast.
Although it's a bit scary now, it's still quite polite!
"No," Xuan Ming said.
"The situation is a bit complicated, and I... don't want to explain, it's too much trouble."
"Oh..." Xiao Wu didn't dare to ask any more questions, hugged her knees and sat down to the side, taking out a carrot and starting to eat it.
"Excuse me, are you a man... or a woman?"
"You're so pretty, and your hair looks great too, you must be a girl, right?"
Xuan Ming's expression froze. "I'm a man."
"Huh?" Xiao Wu looked confused.
Dragon Clan, especially males, shouldn't they be incredibly irritable and arrogant at first glance?
How can someone be so quiet and polite?
However, maintaining such a peculiar appearance even after transforming does indeed fit the disdainful nature of male Dragon Clan...
"Have you always been this bold?" Xuan Ming was speechless.
Before, she would shrink behind Ah Rou when she saw him, her two short legs trembling uncontrollably, but now she dares to take the initiative to talk to him.
"I'll give you my life from now on, can't I even say a word?" Xiao Wu said somewhat guiltily.
Xuan Ming was speechless for a moment, quickly finished his food, and got up to continue practicing the Blood Spear.
"Senior, did you just take human form?"
"How did you manage to condense Thousand-Year Soul Ring on your Second Soul Ring?"
"Senior, you're carrying..."
"Senior..."
Seemingly testing Xuan Ming's temper, Xiao Wu grew bolder and bolder, gradually unleashing her true nature. Like a curious child, she sat on the side asking all sorts of questions, even though Xuan Ming completely ignored her.
Whoosh!
Finally, Xuan Ming couldn't take it anymore and flung the Blood Spear away, grazing Xiao Wu's hair before embedding it in the ground.
Xiao Wu was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled.
Xuan Ming walked over expressionlessly, picked up the Blood Spear, and patted Xiao Wu's rabbit head. "Could you please be quiet?"
"Hmm..." Xiao Wu hugged her legs, looking aggrieved, and shut her mouth.
Xuan Ming sighed, "If you're really bored, come and fight me."
He could tell that Xiao Wu was very scared. She mustered up her courage to come to him and even took the initiative to talk to him so much. She probably wanted to discuss the Sacrifice with him.
Ah Rou hopes he can help Xiao Wu live a few more years, and Xiao Wu probably feels the same way.
"I... I dare not." Xiao Wu's eyes were red as she looked fearfully at the Blood Spear in Xuan Ming's hand.
"I don't need it." Xuan Ming put the Blood Spear away.
"Then... you won't use them to bite me, will you?" Xiao Wu pointed nervously to the two dragons on Xuan Ming's back.
The Ice Dragon King wasn't always online; when she wasn't busy, she would sleep and rest, just like the Fire Dragon King.
"No, I won't bully you," Xuan Ming said.
"You won't bully me?" Xiao Wu's expression was a little strange.
You're a dragon, and you're hitting me, a rabbit? Isn't that bullying me?
You shameless dragon!
"So, are you going to fight or not?" Xuan Ming asked.
"Attack!" Xiao Wu sprang up from the ground, her eyes shining as she looked at Xuan Ming.
She's never fought a dragon before!
"I'm here!" Xiao Wu called out, completing her Martial Soul Possession. With her legs slightly bent, she pushed off with all her might, launching herself forward at an incredible speed, her toes aimed at Xuan Ming's chin.
Xuan Ming took a half step back, dodging Xiao Wu's flying kick, and then grabbed her ankle.
The moment Xiao Wu's ankle was grabbed, she nimbly spun in the air, her other leg sweeping like a whip towards Xuan Ming's arm.
Xuan Ming subconsciously let go, and Xiao Wu took the opportunity to use her waist to push herself up, doing a somersault in the air before landing steadily.
Immediately afterward, she moved with lightning speed, rushing towards Xuan Ming again. The instant she got close to Xuan Ming, she grabbed his neck with both hands and wrapped her legs around him, her whole body tightly coiled around Xuan Ming like a serpent.
This was Xuan Ming's first time engaging in close combat with someone, and he hadn't expected Xiao Wu to react so quickly and use her Soft Skill so skillfully. Just as he was about to exert force to shake Xiao Wu off, he felt Xiao Wu's legs clamping tightly around his neck like iron clamps, and her hands gripping his shoulders tightly as well.
A sly glint flashed in Xiao Wu's eyes, and she cried out, "First Soul Skill - Waist Bow!"
With a flash of the Yellow Soul Ring, Xiao Wu's waist strength instantly increased dramatically. Using the power wrapped around Xuan Ming, she twisted her waist violently, using her entire body to exert force, and actually managed to lift Xuan Ming's even taller body up.
Xuan Ming lost his balance in mid-air. Xiao Wu seized the opportunity, released her hands, and pushed off with her legs. Xuan Ming was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground and raising a cloud of dust.
Xiao Wu landed lightly, clapped her hands, and smiled triumphantly, "I won!"
Xuan Ming stood up, showing no signs of injury. He looked at Xiao Wu, his eyes revealing no anger or embarrassment at the disastrous outcome.
"Since you've even used your Soul Skill, I can't hold back too much." Xuan Ming dusted himself off.
Xiao Wu's eye twitched slightly, and she felt a little guilty. "Um... it's getting late, how about we... fight again tomorrow?"
Xuan Ming looked at Xiao Wu, "What do you think?"
"..."
"Aww!"
"I was wrong! I was wrong!"
"Senior! I know I was wrong!"
"Oh! Mom!"
As darkness fell, Xuan Ming, who had been cultivating all day, returned to the city with Xiao Wu.
" Xiao Wu, what... what's wrong?"
Seeing Xiao Wu's bruised and swollen face, Ah Rou was dumbfounded.
Did they get into a fight?
"I..." Xiao Wu gritted her teeth, glaring at Xuan Ming with a mixture of fear and anger.
"Hmm?" Xuan Ming turned around and glanced at Xiao Wu.
"I accidentally tripped and fell!" Xiao Wu immediately cowered.
"You fell...?" Ah Rou's expression was a little unnatural.
This is probably not something that can be resolved with just one fall!
"I fell down the hillside," Xiao Wu said.
"Does it hurt?" Ah Rou knelt down with some concern to check on Xiao Wu's condition.
"It doesn't hurt!" Xiao Wu said through gritted teeth.
"It doesn't hurt at all!"
"Does it really not hurt?" Ah Rou cautiously reached out and touched Xiao Wu's panda eye.
"Ah!!"
"Mommy! It hurts!"
"..."
Chapter 85 I have some research on Martial Soul
After the fight, although Xiao Wu was badly beaten, she didn't feel as tense and depressed as before.
Xuan Ming was careful with his strength; Xiao Wu only looked bad, she wasn't actually hurt.
In the days that followed, Xiao Wu became attached to Xuan Ming, following him to cultivate from dawn till dusk every day.
For Xiao Wu, Xuan Ming was ultimately the one who wanted her dead, so fighting him from time to time was a form of revenge for her.
The "psychological victory" strategy.
Although Xiao Wu is mostly the one who gets beaten up.
Xuan Ming was also making up for his shortcomings in close combat. The Heaven Dou Royal Academy did not have practical combat courses. Only formal students above level 20 would be given a small number of practical combat courses.
After all, there are many uncontrollable factors in actual combat. If someone doesn't know their own strength, they might have to rest for ten days or half a month. It's not an exaggeration to say that it takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone. If the recovery is not complete, it will leave hidden injuries. You may not feel anything now, but you'll suffer for it later.
Soul Master above level 20 have already achieved great physical strength and recovery ability. Even if an accident does occur, the academy has the ability to cover for them, and they recover quickly.
Bang!
