When Yang Podi woke up, his father Yang Zhentian, was watching him from the side.
Yang Podi carefully examined his injuries. "Dad, how long have I been asleep? What happened to my injuries?"
Father Yang Zhentian also seemed a bit cautious. "Last night, we were targeted by Soul Beast. You must have inhaled the aura emitted by the Soul Beast Soul Beast and then entered its illusion."
After Yang Zhentian finished speaking, he took out the corpse of a white fox from his Storage Soul Tool.
The white fox's carcass wasn't large, only about a meter long. It was completely silvery-white, without a single blemish, and looked rather cute, seemingly harmless.
"This is a ten-thousand-year-old Silver Moon Fox. It likes to roam under the moonlight and can even absorb the power of the moonlight. You were tricked by this Silver Moon Fox yesterday."
"Dad, how can this Silver Moon Fox be so powerful? I'm almost at the Soul Ancestor realm, and it still managed to ambush me?"
Father Yang Zhentian sneered, "What kind of strength is this? You're only at the Soul Elder level. According to the standards for Soul Master, this ten-thousand-year-old Silver Moon Fox, in terms of Divine Power, has probably already reached the level of a high-level Soul King."
"Moreover, the Silver Moon Fox is naturally blessed with strong Divine Power, making it one of the most favored Soul Beast by mental-type Soul Master. If I hadn't discovered it in time yesterday, you might have been in real danger."
Yang Podi also looked annoyed. "I didn't expect such a small Soul Beast to be so powerful. It seems I need to be more careful in the Star Dou Great Forest."
" Podi? Of course. There are countless dangers in the Star Dou Great Forest, and sometimes their attacks are hard to defend against. Especially some poison-attribute Soul Beast and spirit-type Soul Beast, which can kill people invisibly. Even high-level Soul Master can easily fall victim to them."
"I've always been reluctant to bring you to the Star Dou Great Forest, mainly because it's just too dangerous Star Dou Great Forest, especially since you always have extremely high standards for the Soul Beast you choose. I'm afraid you'll stay in the Star Dou Great Forest for too long."
Yang Podi shook his head. "Dad, I'm so sorry, I've always underestimated the dangers of the Star Dou Great Forest."
Yang Zhentian instead spoke up, " Podi, danger itself is not terrible; what is terrible is a lack of mental strength. Just like the mental trauma you suffered this time, it may actually be a benefit to you. The more mental shocks you experience, the stronger your Divine Power will become. At least next time you encounter a crisis, you will know how to deal with it and how to prevent it."
After hearing this, Yang Podi couldn't help but sigh. He then took out some spiritual herbs from his Soul Tool to heal his injuries first.
Yang Podi was deeply affected by his father's words. He had been training since childhood and seemed to have never suffered any injuries or setbacks, so his ability to adapt to changing circumstances was indeed lacking.
Yang Podi even suspected that his father had deliberately allowed the Silver Moon Fox to attack last night, intending to help him only in a truly dangerous situation, in order to strengthen his vigilance against danger in the future. After all, his father was now a high-level Soul Douluo; how could he not detect an attack from a mere Soul King?
Seemingly remembering something, Yang Podi spoke up directly, "Dad, I've noticed that among all the members of our Breaking Clan, it seems that none of them possess a group attack Soul Skill."
" Podi, you're right. Our Breaking Clan indeed has very few area-of-effect Soul Skill."
"Dad, why is that? I remember the Seven Kill Sword is also a top-tier Tool Martial Soul, so why does it have so many area-of-effect Soul Skill?"
" In Podi Tool Martial Soul, there are many types. For example, our Soul Breaking Spear is a heavy weapon, usually wielded with both hands. The Seven Kill Sword, on the other hand, is wielded with one hand and is relatively lighter."
" Sword Douluo has so many new area-of-effect attack skills not only because of his powerful Soul Power, but also because he has perfectly mastered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Heart Separation Control. Moreover, the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul itself is relatively light, making it easier to control."
" The Seven Kill Sword is indeed very powerful in a certain sense, especially when it comes to group attacks. However, it is somewhat lacking in single-target attacks, unlike the Clear Sky Hammer or even our Soul Breaking Spear, which are quite heavy."
"You should have heard of the Wind Sword Sect of the Star Luo Empire. They are also masters of swordsmanship, but their Martial Soul is of a lower grade than the Seven Kill Sword. They focus more on flying on swords, and the basic requirement for flying on swords is that the sword must be relatively light and agile."
After hearing this, Yang Podi seemed to have a sudden realization. "Dad, if that's the case, then it's unlikely that our Soul Breaking Spear will have any new area-of-effect skills."
Yang Zhentian couldn't help but smile, "When Podi, Tool Martial Soul sometimes have to make appropriate trade-offs between single-target and area-of-effect attacks. In a sense, the Seven Kill Sword has reached a state of balance, with strong area-of-effect attacks and good single-target attacks, making it potentially more perfect."
"I was even hoping to see if I could create a group attack skill?"
" Podi, your idea is too naive. We Soul Breaking Spear usually fight by holding the spear, while Sword Douluo and the others directly control their swords. As their Soul Power increases, they can naturally control multiple swords in battle. Especially since you are pursuing the path of power-type Soul Ring, your Soul Breaking Spear will become even heavier. With your Soul Power, how many Soul Breaking Spear can you control?"
After hearing his father's words, Yang Podi was speechless. He had originally wanted to create a cool skill like Sword Douluo's Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect, but after all that, it turned out to be completely unrealistic.
After resting for two hours, Yang Podi and the other person continued their search in the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest.
It must be said that the Star Dou Great Forest is indeed rich in Soul Beast resources. In just half a day, we encountered many good Soul Beast.
Among them were a Fiery Mad Rhino and a Earth Savage Bull, both excellent strength-type Soul Beast, even of decent age, but they were a bit too ordinary.
The two even discovered a 16,000-year-old Iron Armored Thorn Dragon, a top-tier power-type Soul Beast, which made Yang Podi extremely envious. If it weren't for its advanced age, Yang Podi would have wanted to absorb it. Even if it were just over 10,000 years old, Yang Podi would definitely try his best to absorb the Gazing Through Autumn Waters Dew ahead of time, even at the risk of developing deformities.
Yang Podi was still very unwilling. "Dad, although dragon-type Soul Beast prefer to live alone, they do live in groups. Why don't we follow this Iron Armored Thorn Dragon and observe it for a while? Maybe we'll find some unexpected gains."
" Podi, let's forget about it. The Iron Armored Thorn Dragon is indeed a very good Soul Beast, but this type of Soul Beast is usually alone or from a small family of a few. Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rarely stay with Thousand-Year Soul Beast, unless it's their offspring."
"There are still many similar Soul Beast in the Star Dou Great Forest. Let's remember the location and search for a few more days."
Yang Podi extremely helpless and had no choice but to leave reluctantly.
