Chapter 189: The Hunt for Soul Rings Begins (2)
Before long, they found a saber-toothed tiger more than four meters long in an open area.
The moment everyone saw the saber-toothed tiger, an indescribable sense of fear surged through them, making their hair stand on end.
Even the big guy who had awakened the powerful undead white tiger bloodline couldn't suppress the trembling of his body at this moment, and involuntarily shuddered.
Clearly, their fear of the saber-toothed tiger before them had reached a very high level.
Although this was not the first time these people had ventured so deep into this vast forest, they had never seen a saber-toothed tiger of such enormous size and imposing stature.
At this moment, Wu Heyi stepped forward, his face solemn as he pointed to the red-striped saber-toothed tiger, and introduced it to everyone in a low and serious voice:
"Ladies and gentlemen, please pay close attention. The giant beast you are witnessing is scientifically known as the Crimson-toothed Saber-toothed Tiger. You should know that their cubs possess a cultivation level of up to 200 years from birth."
Furthermore, every time their cultivation level increases by 100 years, a mysterious ring will appear on their tails, and at the same time, their bodies will grow slightly taller.
At this point, Wu Heyi paused briefly, took a deep breath, and continued explaining:
"However, what is even more noteworthy is that once these Red-striped Saber-toothed Tigers successfully break through the millennium barrier in their cultivation, the originally separate circles on their tails will magically connect into a whole and gradually transform into exquisite light red patterns."
Furthermore, as their cultivation level continues to improve and they grow, when the patterns on their entire bodies completely transform into a vibrant and dazzling crimson red, it signifies that this Crimson-Striped Saber-Toothed Tiger has advanced to become a formidable ten-thousand-year-old soul beast!
At this moment, Wu Heyi was patiently and meticulously breaking down the relevant knowledge about soul beasts and the advancement of soul master cultivation, explaining it to everyone present in a step-by-step manner from simple to complex.
The content was so complex and numerous that Wu Heyi spoke at length about it.
On this open ground, the once majestic red-striped saber-toothed tiger was now taking a nap in the warm sunshine, enjoying a comfortable sunbath, and unknowingly drifting off to sleep.
Just then, Wu Heyi gently patted the shoulder of the big, simple-minded man with the White Tiger Martial Soul and said:
"Alright, now it's your turn to perform!"
Caught off guard and suddenly slapped, the big, clumsy man shuddered violently. Pointing at himself in astonishment, he stammered, "..."
"What...what can I do?"
Wu Heyi, with an air of nonchalance, casually pointed to the red-striped saber-toothed tiger still fast asleep not far away and said indifferently:
"Look, see that tiger? Go over there and take it down."
"Wait a moment, I'll teach you how to absorb a spirit ring!"
Upon hearing the second half of Wu Heyi's sentence, the big, simple-minded man's eyes lit up instantly, and an overwhelming sense of excitement welled up inside him.
However, when his thoughts returned to the first half of the sentence—that he was going to kill the Crimson Saber-toothed Tiger—fear surged into his heart like a tide, his legs trembled involuntarily, and his body began to slowly retreat.
"No, no, no, I absolutely can't do it!"
If I were to rush over there alone, wouldn't that be like offering someone a delicious snack without their consent?
He waved his hands in terror and screamed, his face pale.
Upon hearing his words, everyone present was taken aback at first, and then burst into laughter.
However, as the laughter gradually subsided, for some reason, a strange chill began to spread in everyone's hearts, making them feel uneasy.
"Oh, what's there to be afraid of?"
Judging from your current physical condition, you should be more than capable of going toe-to-toe with it!
You know, that tiger's cultivation level is at most only two thousand years!
Wu Heyi comforted her with a smile, but a hint of cunning was hidden in his eyes.
Of course, it's not to say that Wu Heyi completely disregarded the hunting rules that Douluo Continent has always followed.
After all, Yu Xiaogang once did a detailed summary of this:
For a Soul Master, the optimal age for acquiring their first Soul Ring should generally not exceed 423 years.
In reality, whether a spirit ring can be successfully absorbed depends on the spirit master's own physical condition.
After all, the vast majority of Soul Masters are only around six years old when they first awaken their Martial Soul.
Even if they wait until they are ten years old to try to receive their first spirit ring, their bodies are still extremely fragile because they are still children.
Therefore, no matter how outstanding these children's talents are, it is still quite difficult for them to successfully absorb a spirit ring with a lifespan of more than 423 years.
However, the vast majority of the people in front of us are already in their twenties, the prime of their youth.
Because of their long-term adherence to the habit of eating their own souls, the excessive soul power constantly washes over and tempers their bodies. These accumulated effects have greatly enhanced the physical strength of each of them, making them almost comparable to those with the strength of Soul Venerable or even Soul Sect.
This means that they are fully capable of trying to absorb the powerful energy contained in the millennium soul ring.
Just then, everyone's attention was focused on the burly, big, dumb guy.
He stood there trembling, showing no intention of making a move.
Upon seeing this, Wu Heyi felt a surge of anger and kicked the big, clumsy guy hard in the buttocks.
With a "whoosh," the big, clumsy guy was kicked out of the woods like a cannonball, flying straight toward the red-striped giant tiger not far away.
This sudden turn of events terrified the big, clumsy man. He flailed his arms and legs wildly in the air while shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Help! Help... me! Help... me!"
The terrified cries for help echoed through the silent forest, startling a flock of birds perched on the branches.
At the same time, the red-striped megalodon, which was enjoying a sunbath, also noticed the unidentified object flying towards it.
When it looked closely, it was astonished to find a gigantic human rushing toward it at an incredible speed. Even this majestic beast was startled.
Instantly, all the fur on its body stood on end, and its previously lazy eyes became incredibly sharp.
Immediately afterwards, it pushed off the ground with all four limbs, and its huge body shot up like an arrow.
In the blink of an eye, the big, clumsy creature, who was about to have a close encounter with the red-striped giant tiger, finally unleashed a strong will to survive at the critical moment.
He recklessly unleashed the martial spirit power that had been dormant within him for a long time, and successfully completed the martial spirit possession in the blink of an eye.
In an instant, a powerful aura erupted from his body, and his originally ordinary body burst forth with a powerful momentum, like a mighty and majestic white tiger, standing in confrontation with the red-striped giant tiger opposite him.
For a moment, it was as if two enormous beasts were glaring at each other, the atmosphere was extremely tense, and even the air seemed to freeze, neither daring to make the first move to attack the other.
