Chapter 22 - 22

22 Top Life-Type Soul Beast

Xiao Ze's heart warmed.

Grandpa Xiao was indeed worried about him.

"Alright, you two stay here and wait until Nana finishes absorbing her spirit ring, then you can leave."

"Okay." Xiao Ze had no objections and went to a spot with Grandpa Xiao to wait.

Soon, Hu Liena absorbed her fourth spirit ring, becoming a Spirit Ancestor.

"Such a young Spirit Ancestor, truly worthy of being a genius of Wuhun Academy," Principal Xiao exclaimed.

However, in his heart, Xiao Ze was the most formidable.

"Grandpa Ju, who are they?"

Hu Liena, exhilarated after becoming a Spirit Ancestor, swayed her slender waist and gracefully approached.

"They saw you acquiring a spirit ring, so I kept them here."

"Grandpa Ju, I'm done absorbing, please let them go."

Hu Liena came before Xiao Ze and pinched his face.

"A child with very good features, just a bit dark. You'll definitely look handsome once you get fairer."

Xiao Ze was speechless. Was this big sister a bit too familiar?

Even a looks-obsessed person shouldn't be like this.

However, Hu Liena's enchanting fox eyes were indeed captivating, and the rich, delicate fragrance emanating from her was even more alluring.

"Little brother, are you here to acquire a spirit ring?" Hu Liena's red lips parted slightly, her breath like orchids.

"Yes, my second spirit ring," Xiao Ze replied honestly.

"Oh… little brother, your talent is quite good. You can acquire your second spirit ring at this age. Do you want to join Spirit Hall?"

Grandpa Xiao had no issues with Spirit Hall; it was indeed a good place to go.

"I asked him, he wants to participate in the Soul Master Competition, so he's not coming."

Hu Liena covered her mouth and chuckled: "Then I hope to see you in the finals of the Soul Master Competition."

"I will," Xiao Ze replied very seriously.

Hu Liena was slightly taken aback.

Chrysanthemum Douluo, standing nearby, didn't take it seriously.

Only three academies could participate in the finals, and the difficulty was immense.

"Little brother, what kind of Spirit Beast do you want? I'll tell you."

"Life-type."

"Oh… an auxiliary Spirit. There are life-type Spirit Beasts over there, quite a lot of them," Hu Liena pointed in a direction.

"Thank you, older sister."

Hu Liena pinched Xiao Ze's cheek again: "Such a good boy."

"Grandpa Ju, let's go back."

"Mhm."

"Little brother, be careful."

"Got it."

Seeing the two leave, Xiao Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandpa Ju, do you think he can make it to the finals?"

"You're joking. It would be good enough if he could just participate in the Soul Master Competition," Chrysanthemum Douluo said, shaking his head with a smile.

"But I have a premonition he will come," Hu Liena said with a smile.

Chrysanthemum Douluo said nothing.

...

Xiao Ze advanced in the direction Hu Liena had pointed.

Grandpa Xiao followed behind him.

After passing through two forests, Xiao Ze arrived at a place with a very rich life aura.

At a glance, Xiao Ze saw many Blue Silver Grass.

In places with abundant life, the number of Blue Silver Grass would be very high.

There were also some other life-type Spirit Beasts, but none were strong.

Grandpa Xiao used his aura to drive them away.

Xiao Ze slowly explored.

If he couldn't find a suitable Spirit Beast, then he would continue with Blue Silver Grass.

Anyway, his Spirit Ability had no relation to the Spirit Beast; it just needed to be of high age.

Mainly, Xiao Ze wanted to see if he could get a Spirit Bone.

Even if Blue Silver Grass yielded a Spirit Bone, it would be of little use to him.

He didn't even care for a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor Spirit Bone, so what use would a Blue Silver Grass Spirit Bone be?

The Spirit Bone Xiao Ze most desired was Xiao Wu's Spirit Bone.

Teleportation and Paragon Golden Body, these two Spirit Abilities, were simply invincible.

Xiao Ze was also a bit speechless; a trashy little rabbit actually possessed such two powerful Spirit Abilities.

Heaven is truly blind.

After walking for a quarter of an hour, Xiao Ze sensed the life aura becoming increasingly dense.

"Xiao Ze, there's a thousand-year Spirit Beast ahead, it should be suitable for you." Grandpa Xiao's mental force wasn't strong, so he couldn't sense what specific Spirit Beast it was.

"Okay."

Xiao Ze walked over a hundred meters northwest.

He discovered a tree.

Its trunk was as crystalline as jade, and its branches and leaves displayed a seven-colored flow of light.

"This Spirit Beast is the Everlasting Spirit Banyan!" Principal Xiao said excitedly.

"Everlasting Spirit Banyan?" Xiao Ze hadn't learned about it in books.

Grandpa Xiao knew Xiao Ze wasn't clear, so he began to explain: "The Everlasting Spirit Banyan is a top-tier life-type Spirit Beast, possessing extremely strong combat and healing abilities."

"Their numbers are very rare, mostly found in mixed zones. Because the Everlasting Spirit Banyan heals other Spirit Beasts, these types of Spirit Beasts are not attacked by most Spirit Beasts, allowing them to live for a very long time."

"The only drawback is that their cultivation advancement is very slow."

Xiao Ze nodded: "That's the one."

"Xiao Ze, why don't I do it, Grandpa? The Everlasting Spirit Banyan's combat power is quite strong. This 1.8-meter Everlasting Spirit Banyan is over eighteen hundred years old." Grandpa Xiao was a bit worried.

"Don't worry, Grandpa Xiao, if I can't handle it, then you can step in."

"Okay."

Grandpa Xiao began to guard the surroundings.

Since there was an Everlasting Spirit Banyan here, it meant other Spirit Beasts also knew about this place.

He couldn't let other Spirit Beasts affect Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze summoned Sui Hua and the three other Spirits.

"Sui Hua, use Rice Wave Assault. Xi Mang, use Wind Fall Wheat芒."

Sui Hua charged a distance towards the Everlasting Spirit Banyan, swinging her rice crown to strike the Everlasting Spirit Banyan's trunk.

With a loud bang, the Everlasting Spirit Banyan was startled awake.

Its roots shot out of the ground, transforming into countless wooden dragons, waving in the air.

Xiao Ze was stunned. Good heavens, all of this guy's offensive weapons were underground!

The Everlasting Spirit Banyan waved its branches, striking towards Xiao Ze.

Xi Mang fired golden whirlwinds that pierced through many branches, scattering luminous wheat seeds along the way.

Just as the branches were about to touch Xiao Ze, the luminous wheat seeds burst with golden light, forming small-scale explosions.

Rumble—

The explosions engulfed all the branches.

The Earth Potato King, seeing this, donned its starch armor and blocked in front of Xiao Ze.

Jade Gold fired explosive corn bullets, tracking towards the Everlasting Spirit Banyan.

The Everlasting Spirit Banyan's crown flung out sharp, blade-like Spirit leaves, cutting the explosive corn bullets, which detonated in mid-air.

"It has so many tricks."

At this moment, countless translucent rice ears grew from the void, and a continuous blue-gold grain rain descended from the sky.

This was Sui Hua's Domain, Thousand Heavy Rice Waves.

Grandpa Xiao felt the effect of the Domain and was slightly surprised.

"Xiao Ze's methods are getting more and more diverse." He was filled with gratification.

He had witnessed Xiao Ze's growth.

The battle between Sui Hua and the Everlasting Spirit Banyan continued relentlessly.

The sounds of ripening and bursting rice ears were continuous and incessant.

This prevented the Everlasting Spirit Banyan's branches from even getting close to Xiao Ze.

The Earth Potato King, seeing this, also charged out. The branches struck its armor, and it didn't dodge at all.

Because a portion of the absorbed damage could be converted into its temporary shield.

Although this temporary shield constantly shattered, it also constantly regenerated.

Suddenly, a row of sharp potato spikes protruded from beneath the Everlasting Spirit Banyan.

They pierced its underside, and green liquid flowed out.
