Long Chen and Ye Tianming approached the green turtle beast cautiously, trying not to make any noise so as not to alert the enemy.
The green turtle beast has three thousand years of cultivation and is very alert.
Just as the two were getting closer and closer to it, it suddenly opened its eyes, and a hint of alertness flashed in its cloudy eyeballs.
Then, the green turtle beast seemed to realize something and quickly retracted its head and limbs into the thick turtle shell, leaving only the indestructible back shell exposed.
Ye Tianming said softly:
"This green turtle beast is quite clever, but it can't escape."
Long Chen smiled slightly, his eyes gleaming with confidence.
"Uncle Ye, let me deal with this soul beast myself."
"Okay, then I'll stand by and help you."
Ye Tianming knew that Long Chen's martial soul and soul skills were extremely special.
Moreover, Long Chen's strength and intelligence far surpass his peers. It is indeed a good opportunity for him to train himself by facing this green turtle beast that has cultivated for three thousand years.
Long Chen's body shook slightly, and the Dark Night Magic Harp martial spirit instantly appeared in his hand.
The dark magic harp emitted a faint light, as if it contained endless mysterious power.
Immediately afterwards, Long Chen lightly plucked the strings of the zither with his fingers, and his first soul skill was unleashed.
I saw a black shadow rushing out from the magic piano and turning into a huge Taotie phantom, pouncing at the green turtle beast with its fangs and claws bared.
The shadow of Taotie was so huge that it almost covered half of the sky.
It opened its bloody mouth, revealing its sharp fangs, and held down the green turtle beast that was about to escape into the river.
Although the green turtle beast has amazing defense, it seems powerless under the suppression of the Taotie phantom.
It tried to struggle, but every time it tried to stretch out its limbs or head, it would be suppressed back by the terrifying power of the Taotie phantom.
At this moment, Long Chen plucked the strings again.
The second soul skill - the magic sound summoning the nine-tailed fox, was also activated.
A brilliant light burst out from the magic harp and transformed into a monster with nine fox tails.
The nine-tailed fox has a light body, and its nine tails dance slowly behind it.
Along with the whimpering sound coming from its mouth, a strange wave spread in the air.
The green turtle beast seemed to be affected by the nine-tailed fox's phantom sound, and its originally tense and alert expression gradually became blurred.
It seemed to have entered some kind of illusion, and it stretched out its head and limbs consciously. It seemed to be chewing something in its mouth, and its eyes were blurred, as if it was immersed in the joy of enjoying delicious food.
"Now!"
Long Chen's heart trembled, and his fingers plucked the strings again.
A sharp sound of the piano cut through the air and went straight to the vital point of the green turtle beast.
"Puff!"
With a slight sound, an invisible sonic blade pierced directly into the neck of the green turtle beast.
The green turtle beast, which was originally immersed in the illusion, suddenly trembled violently, its eyes turned red, and a deafening roar came out of its mouth.
But then it fell down and soon stopped breathing.
Wisps of purple mist slowly rose from the huge corpse.
Long Chen easily killed the green turtle beast that had cultivated for three thousand years.
Ye Tianming was shocked again.
The nine-tailed fox summoned by Long Chen through the sound of the magic piano also has considerable strength.
The green turtle beast had no power to resist his mental attack.
Ye Tianming walked towards Long Chen.
"Xiaochen, you succeeded. It was easier than I thought."
Long Chen put away his martial spirit and smiled slightly.
"Uncle Ye, the power of this second soul skill is beyond my imagination."
"Well, it is indeed powerful. I have said long ago that even a Soul King-level soul master would find it difficult to resist the restrictions of the Nine-tailed Fox."
Soon, the purple thousand-year soul ring took shape.
"Xiaochen, adjust your state and prepare to absorb the spirit ring."
"good."
Long Chen adjusted his state, closed his eyes and concentrated, devoting himself to absorbing the soul ring.
The surrounding air seemed to tremble slightly due to the enormous energy of this thousand-year soul ring.
This was the first time Long Chen absorbed a thousand-year soul ring.
The energy in the three thousand year soul ring was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, violent and difficult to control.
But Long Chen easily withstood the impact of this force thanks to his physique strengthened by taking whale glue.
His body seemed to have turned into a solid dam, and no matter how turbulent the energy waves were, he could steadily guide them into every corner of his body.
Time passed quietly, and Long Chen's expression gradually changed from the initial solemnity to peace, revealing a faint luster.
The soul power in his body was constantly refined and enhanced in the fusion with the soul ring energy, until the two were completely integrated.
When the last bit of energy was completely absorbed, Long Chen suddenly opened his eyes, and a brighter light flashed in his eyes.
Seeing Long Chen wake up, Ye Tianming couldn't wait to ask:
"Xiaochen, you finally absorbed all the spirit rings. How do you feel?"
Long Chen stood up and said with a smile:
"My soul power has increased by two levels, reaching level 32. Moreover, I feel a powerful force filling my body."
"Very good, then the newly acquired soul skill should be related to defense, right?"
"That's right, this is an attack and defense integrated soul skill."
After Long Chen finished speaking, he slowly stretched out his right hand, and the Dark Night Demon Harp martial spirit appeared again.
As his fingertips lightly touched the strings, the third soul ring shone brightly, and a mysterious and solemn aura spread.
As Long Chen played, the sound of the magic harp turned into ripples that were invisible to the naked eye and spread in all directions.
In the blink of an eye, a huge shadow of a turtle and snake slowly emerged.
It carries a heavy turtle shell on its back, its body is winding, its huge and powerful tail is swinging in the air, its agile snake head reveals sharp teeth, it keeps breathing out, and its eyes reveal endless majesty.
The huge shadow enveloped Long Chen and his Dark Night Demon Harp martial spirit, as if providing him with an indestructible fortress.
"This is... Xuanwu?"
Ye Tianming looked at the scene in amazement.
Xuanwu not only has extremely strong defense, but also has violent attack power.
Long Chen nodded.
"Uncle Ye, this is indeed Xuanwu, both offensive and defensive."
Ye Tianming looked at Long Chen, his eyes full of relief.
"Excellent! This soul skill is very powerful! You are only at level 32, yet you already possess soul skills that combine powerful attack, control, and defense. It combines attack, defense, and control in one. I dare say that among soul masters of the same level, no one can be your opponent. Even soul masters at the Soul Sect or Soul King level can hardly pose a threat to you."
Long Chen smiled.
"Uncle Ye, this soul skill doesn't seem that strange. Can I go to Tiandou Royal Academy now?"
"Yes. However, you must remember what I told you: you must not use the devouring power of your first soul skill in public."
"Yes, I understand."
