Zhang Lexuan led Wu Ming and the others into the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Let's investigate their strength first, and then we'll make our move if we encounter a lone Evil Soul Master."
Meanwhile, thirty miles away in the Star Dou Great Forest, the Soul Engineer of the Sun Moon Empire had completed the assembly of the Level 9 Soul Guidance Shield Tunneling Machine and began digging tunnels into Star Dou.
Ju Zi Inspector asked:
"Have you spread the word? All the gathering places of Soul Beast, big and small, have been controlled for so long. There are plenty of low- and mid-level Soul Master on the continent who have broken through to higher levels and have nowhere to find Soul Beast."
The subordinate immediately reported:
"Your Majesty, I already spread the message yesterday."
"Those people will definitely arrive soon."
Ju Zi nodded and said:
"Remember to collect a toll later."
"Tell them to dig two more tunnels."
Chu Qing and Tang Wutong followed the beast howls to find the Evil Soul Master Evil Soul Master. As soon as they saw him, he immediately activated his Martial Soul Avatar.
However, upon seeing the powerful enemy approaching from afar, the opponent did not engage in battle but immediately transformed into a cloud of ghostly mist and fled.
After half a day, the Evil Soul Master they encountered all slipped away without any intention of fighting him.
The remaining seventeen Evil Soul Master quickly gathered together.
Zhongli Tian, who was in the lead, felt a chill run down his spine. He said without any hesitation:
"If Jin Suqiu is so formidable, I'm afraid we'd be throwing our lives away if we faced Chu Qing, who has eight rings."
One of the evil Soul Saint, whose body was still slightly cracked from his previous battle with Jin Suqiu, said anxiously:
"Yes!"
"Let's run!"
"We don't have a Titled Douluo; we can't fight him."
Zhongli Tian nodded and said:
"Although we suffered heavy losses, the mission is almost complete."
"Withdraw!"
Where to evacuate?
A furious roar suddenly echoed from the sky, and the surrounding light dimmed instantly, revealing a colossal Sky Scorpion Bull Emperor Python, a thousand feet long, that had suddenly appeared in the heavens.
One of the Evil Soul Master, who was missing half an eyeball, was shocked and said:
"Impossible?"
"How did he get here? I've been watching him."
He's clearly still with Tang Wutong.
Chu Qing naturally didn't waste any words explaining to them that the person over there was just Man Faced Demon Puppet in disguise.
He used his domain skills to spiral downwards.
The Cold Slow Heaven Delay Domain.
At the same time, it activated the Gravity Field Soul Skill of the Golden Titan Giant Python's right leg bone.
Centered on him, a wave of icy blue light instantly spread, filling and surging throughout the surrounding area.
The evil Soul Saint were sluggish, their spirits suppressed so they couldn't unleash their Soul Skill, and they were blasted into the ground by the gravity wave.
The Evil Soul Douluo fared slightly better, slowly fleeing outwards despite the gravitational waves crashing down upon him, frost constantly condensing on his body.
It can actually resist?
Chu Qing was surprised. He was now equivalent to a level 95 Super Titled Douluo fighting against Soul Douluo and Soul Saint. He had to admit that these Evil Soul Master were quite capable.
His Fifth Soul Ring and First Soul Ring lit up one after another.
The Imperial Heaven-Sealing Lock, with countless enormous bull-headed python chains resembling ship anchors, crashed down from the sky, sealing off and dividing space, completely cutting off any possibility of escape for the Evil Soul Master.
As he Feathered Transformation, his aura rapidly sublimated.
He spun faster and faster, like a lapis lazuli millstone, unleashing a terrifying Ice and Snow Storm that pressed down like a collapsing mountain.
Zhongli Tian and the other six Soul Douluo used their Soul Skill to defend themselves, but their attacks only made Chu Qing's body grow even larger, and his Eighth Soul Ring shone with a despairing blood-red light.
Zhang Lexuan and her friends, who were secretly following from a distance, were utterly shocked.
Golden Crow Saintess Wu Ming couldn't believe it:
"Can he wipe out this Evil Soul Master all by himself?"
He had heard many rumors about Chu Qing; she was already level 80, but hadn't yet obtained her Eighth Soul Ring. Now he was acutely aware of Chu Qing's strength; she truly lived up to her reputation as a cunning strategist who could overpower her peers.
Chu Qing's enormous body crashed down like a meteorite, causing the entire earth to tremble.
With a single strike, he crushed the bones within the bodies of all the Evil Soul Master.
Then, the tightly interlocking legs on the belly of the Sky Scorpion Bull Emperor Python loosened Sisi, and a terrifying, extreme icy aura surged out, instantly turning the surrounding area into a frigid world, freezing all the Evil Soul Master to the ground.
He deactivated his Martial Soul Avatar state, Tang Wutong, using her Ultimate Speed, unleashed her Twin Wings and arrived in an instant.
"Let's do it," he said.
A smile finally appeared on Tang Wutong's face. She glanced around and saw that there were a total of seventeen Evil Soul Master here! That meant that killing them would grant her a reward of Soul Ring with a lifespan of 170,000 years.
Soul Ring immediately rose beneath her feet—five black and two red—this astonishing array of Soul Ring instantly drew the attention of the Shrek Devils hidden in the shadows.
Especially after Tang Wutong used her Soul Skill to kill the Evil Soul Master, and as seventeen rays of light surged from the golden ring on her hand and entered her body, her Soul Ring ratio directly upgraded to two black and five red, leaving the Shrek Academy members somewhat dumbfounded, as it was far beyond their comprehension.
Tang Wutong was overjoyed and said:
"You still need two more Evil Titled Douluo, or eighteen more Evil Soul Saint Soul Douluo, then you won't owe me anything."
Chu Qing nodded, and the two ignored the Shrek group in the distance, flying away. Chu Qing said:
"Let's take this opportunity to get some suitable Soul Beast for Xue Shiqi and the others."
Tang Wutong had gotten a good deal, was in high spirits and said:
"You rest, I'll catch it."
While they were capturing the Soul Beast, they discovered that there were many more Soul Master hunting for Soul Ring in the Star Dou Forest.
"Their cultivation levels are so weak? How did they sneak in?"
Tang Wutong found it strange.
Chu Qing said:
"We need to hurry, or something bad might happen to this Star Dou again."
Meanwhile, Shrek's reinforcements arrived. Cai Mei'er breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing everyone unharmed and said:
"It's good that everyone's alright. Tell me, where are all the Evil Soul Master? Let's go take care of them."
Zhang Lexuan said:
"Dean, most of the Evil Soul Master should have been wiped out by Chu Qing alone. We are currently searching to see if there are any survivors."
No matter how powerful the rumors are, it's still hard to imagine without seeing it in person. Cai Mei'er couldn't help but ask:
" Lexuan, what methods did he use?"
How is he better than you?
Zhang Lexuan said:
"Dean, I can only say that they are the real monsters."
Han Ruoruo was also shocked:
"Yes, they seem to possess some special method to increase the age of Soul Ring. We witnessed Tang Wutong's two black Soul Ring instantly transform into Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring."
This left Cai Mei'er completely stunned. Given her status, she naturally knew that Huo Yuhao had successfully developed the Inheritable Soul Spirit technology, and according to their investigation, the Holy Spirit Cult also possessed the methods of Spirit Ascension. Her expression became complicated.
She couldn't help but wonder, according to Huo Yuhao, Chu Qing hadn't made any contributions since the start of the Inheritable Soul Spirit Plan. Could it be that he had researched something but was hiding it?
"Let's go find the Evil Soul Master first."
As they searched, they gradually turned to hunting Soul Beast for the students.
