After Xiao Yan had divided up the valuable parts of Ghost Tiger, Zhu Zhuqing's absorption was nearing its end.
As a faint fluctuation of Soul Power spread outwards, Xiao Yan's gaze fell upon Zhu Zhuqing.
"Buzz~"
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple!
Four Soul Ring emanated from Zhu Zhuqing's body, spreading outwards and quietly pulsating in mid-air.
However, Zhu Zhuqing showed no signs of waking up.
The surging Soul Power roared within Zhu Zhuqing's body, and the oppressive aura emanating from her grew increasingly intense.
Qian Renxue's gaze fell on Zhu Zhuqing, a hint of surprise appearing on her face:
"Successive breakthroughs?"
Qian Renxue immediately frowned.
This Ghost Tiger is only a little over four thousand years old. Given the strength of its Soul Ring, it's impossible for Zhu Zhuqing to break through realms continuously.
However, it's also possible that the other party had accumulated experience for a long time beforehand, and that absorbing this Soul Ring allowed them to break through to a higher realm.
However, just as Qian Renxue had convinced herself, she keenly sensed that the aura of Zhu Zhuqing's breakthrough had not yet dissipated.
Upon sensing that Zhu Zhuqing had broken through to a higher realm again, Qian Renxue appeared beside Xiao Yan, tilting her head slightly to look at Zhu Zhuqing with a hint of confusion on her face.
Just then, a hoarse voice rang out.
The Titled Douluo, whom Qian Renxue had previously addressed Elder She Qian Renxue, appeared beside her and spoke:
"It's likely that before the breakthrough, he consumed some kind of herb with powerful medicinal properties, and all of those properties accumulated in his body. Now that he has obtained the Soul Ring, the accumulated power has erupted, which is why he has this effect."
Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing Elder She's words.
The opponent is Titled Douluo, so it's not difficult to tell that.
Upon hearing Elder She's description, Qian Renxue frowned and looked at Xiao Yan, saying:
"With your talent, there's no need to do something so unforgiving; it might even ruin your foundation."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's expression became more serious, and he began to explain:
"Don't worry, the Immortal Herb we're taking has no side effects."
Under the influence of the residual effects of the Lovesick Heartbreak Red within her body, Zhu Zhuqing's Soul Power Level soared immediately after absorbing her Fourth Soul Ring.
He broke through to level 43!
"Whoosh!"
As Zhu Zhuqing's breathing gradually stabilized, she suddenly opened her eyes, a hint of excitement flashing in them.
Seeing the fleeting joy in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, Xiao Yan asked, " Zhu Zhuqing, how are you feeling? Did you gain a lot?"
Zhu Zhuqing, unusually playful, blinked and said:
I feel like I could take on three of you right now!
As Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, a slight smile appeared on her lips.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter and pressed for details about Zhu Zhuqing's fourth Soul Skill.
Zhu Zhuqing naturally didn't hide anything from Xiao Yan and spoke directly:
"Fourth Soul Skill, Netherworld Shadow Clone: I can now create three clones with 30% of the original's combat power to confuse enemies and coordinate attacks."
As Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master, having three clones capable of coordinating attacks and unleashing true strikes is a significant advantage for her.
In future battles, her clones will be able to confuse the opponent.
It can be very useful in both surprise attacks and actual combat.
Moreover, this Soul Skill can continuously increase its upper limit as her strength improves!
With each advancement in her cultivation level, she can summon one more clone, and the clone's combat power will increase by ten percent!
In other words, once she reaches the Titled Douluo level, she will be able to summon at least eight clones, each possessing 80% of the original's combat power!
Xiao Yan's eyes lit up immediately upon hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words.
However, what he was thinking was, wouldn't that mean that several Zhu Zhuqing could appear at the same time?
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's voluptuous figure, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel a slight urge to censor her.
"Cough cough..."
Zhu Zhuqing looked at him in surprise. "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yan's cheeks flushed slightly, and he quickly shook his head. "It's nothing."
Xiao Yan changed the subject and led the way deeper into the area. "You've rested enough, so let's continue our search."
Zhu Zhuqing Zhu Zhuqing, left with a puzzled look, glanced at Qian Renxue and Elder She beside her, hesitated for a moment, nodded slightly to the two of them, and then followed Xiao Yan away.
Qian Renxue and Elder She returned to their previous state.
Aside from a few powerful Soul Beast approaching, the two showed no intention of making a move.
Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing were left to wander freely in the Sunset Forest.
However, Xiao Yan wasn't as lucky as Zhu Zhuqing in his search for Martial Soul.
For two days in a row, they did not encounter a suitable Soul Beast for Xiao Yan.
Midway through, the two encountered a ten-thousand-year-old snake-like Soul Beast. Fortunately, Zhu Zhuqing's Netherworld Shadow Clone attracted the Soul Beast 'Soul Beast attention, allowing the two to escape its sight in time.
At first, Qian Renxue didn't dare to let such a powerful Soul Beast get close to Xiao Yan and his companion.
It wasn't until they witnessed Xiao Yan and his companion's seamless teamwork and their combat prowess that they understood.
Qian Renxue then changed her mind and wanted to see where Xiao Yan and the others' limits were.
Seeing that they were able to escape unscathed from the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, Qian Renxue felt that her trip had not been in vain.
Having witnessed Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing's abilities firsthand, Qian Renxue had a thought that led her to slightly change her plans for the two.
"The surrounding temperature seems to be gradually getting colder..."
In the quiet woods, Zhu Zhuqing looked at Xiao Yan ahead and spoke with a frown.
Xiao Yan nodded upon hearing this.
He knew Zhu Zhuqing was reminding him to Xiao Xin. Some Soul Beast have requirements for their habitat, so when the surrounding environment changes significantly, it usually means that a powerful Soul Beast has appeared.
Behind Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing, Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of surprise as she softly spoke:
"I never expected that such a Soul Beast would exist within this Sunset Forest?"
Elder She appeared beside Qian Renxue and spoke:
"Your Highness, these kinds of Soul Beast are extremely strange, having been born for over ten thousand years. They are of no use to Xiao Yan at his current level. If we rashly venture deeper, we may encounter unexpected accidents."
Upon hearing Elder She's advice, Qian Renxue frowned. After only a slight hesitation, she chased after Xiao Yan and the other person.
" Xiao Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, wait!"
The two stopped in their tracks upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, turned around to look at Zhu Zhuqing, and looked on with puzzled expressions.
Qian Renxue looked at the two of them, making no attempt to hide anything, and said:
" The Soul Beast ahead is rather strange and useless to you. Xiao Xin, it's best to take a detour."
Hearing Qian Renxue's serious tone, Xiao Yan and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance, a look of surprise rising in their hearts.
Xiao Yan looked at Qian Renxue and asked, "Are the Soul Beast ahead troublesome?"
Qian Renxue nodded and said to the two of them:
"The preceding Soul Beast is named... the Eternal Frost Mourning Demon."
They are born and inhabit the permafrost of the Far North or some large ancient battlefields.
These places are not only extremely cold, but also often accumulate large amounts of death energy and lingering souls.
Only at certain specific times will they emerge from under the permafrost, remain on the surface for a certain period, and then sink back underground.
At this point, Qian Renxue, with a hint of surprise in her voice, addressed the two of them:
"I never expected that the Eternal Frost Mourning Demon would be born here. It seems that Sunset Forest was once the site of a large-scale battlefield."
