It turned out that this Azure Sea Spirit Ape was only fifteen thousand years old, not twenty thousand, so Moxuan did not have much difficulty absorbing it.
In less than half an hour, he had finished absorbing it. He leaped to his feet, his face full of delight. It seemed he had gained a soul skill that satisfied him greatly.
He strode over to Tang Wulin and the other two.
"Thank you."
Di Yun'er and Huo Yutong said nothing. Tang Wulin replied with a smile, "It's nothing. We're members of the same team, so it's only right. As long as this soul beast suited you, that's what matters."
To him, dealing with that soul beast had been no more than a trivial effort.
Seeing that Moxuan had finished absorbing it, Zhang Lexuan organized everyone and continued deeper into the forest.
They had entered the Star Dou Great Forest at noon, and after spending time crossing its outer region, the sky soon grew dark.
Zhang Lexuan made a prompt decision and raised a hand. "Stop here. We'll rest for the night."
At her words, Li Yongyue summoned his Martial Soul and helped clear away some of the surrounding trees.
His Martial Soul was a beautiful Moonblade, elegantly curved and radiating enchanting moonlight.
Everyone sat down where they were, preparing to rest.
This was the Mixed Zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, where danger could appear at any time. They could only sleep out in the open; tents were out of the question, since they would slow their reactions if danger arose.
Zhang Lexuan instructed, "We'll take turns standing watch tonight. Ruoruo and I will take the first shift and cover the first three hours. Yutong, Wulin, and Di Yun'er will take the second shift and cover the last two hours.
