Chapter 75: Forest Doctor - Light Healing Spirit Butterfly, Soul Beast Gathering Place, Do You Dare to Fight?
This suggestion was put forward by Hu Bai, as their group consisted of three Titled Douluo, so they had to understand how to allocate their time and not just stay together, which would be a waste of time.
Not long after, they indeed found a Soul Beast of about five hundred years, which was very suitable for Ye Lingling at the moment.
Light Healing Spirit Butterfly! It is a healing-type Soul Beast with almost no offensive capabilities.
This type of Soul Beast has a common characteristic: due to its proficiency in healing, it is usually protected by many other Soul Beasts.
The Light Healing Spirit Butterfly is also a gregarious Soul Beast.
At this moment, many Soul Beasts surrounded this five-hundred-year-old Light Healing Spirit Butterfly, and among them were even several Dragon-type Soul Beasts!
Hu Bai also had some guesses about this; the status of the Light Healing Spirit Butterfly outside the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest should be similar to that of the Emerald Swan in the Great Fierce Beast Area.
The Emerald Swan Clan mostly resides near the Great Fierce Beast Area within the core zone, while the Sacred Forest is located outside the core zone. When some Soul Beasts are injured, they might come to the Light Healing Spirit Butterfly Clan for treatment.
This clan in the Sacred Forest seems to have a special title:
Forest Doctor!
Dugu Bo looked at the scene before him, slightly surprised: "It seems we've arrived at a Soul Beast gathering place! So many butterfly-type Soul Beasts, and there are even many thousand-year and ten-thousand-year Soul Beasts guarding them!"
Yes, this area not only had the five-hundred-year-old Light Healing Spirit Butterfly but also other Soul Beasts!
It could be said that Ye Lingling's and Dugu Yan's first and second soul rings were now settled!
Tianmeng Iceworm: Oh, can I finally see Hu Bai use his Martial Soul? I'm so excited.
As for whether Tianmeng Iceworm would have any other thoughts, such as disgust, about Hu Bai and the others hunting Soul Beasts, there was certainly none.
Why?
Because he himself was being absorbed for energy by a group of Fierce Beasts!
In the large group of Soul Beasts, there was no unity at all—unless they were of the same race; perhaps there would be a slight tendency to help each other.
Bibi Dong looked at these Soul Beasts, then at Hu Bai and the others, and said faintly: "If I say I can help you block Soul Beasts above ten thousand years, can you manage to hunt two Light Healing Martial Soul Butterflies and two sub-Dragon Soul Beasts?"
Bibi Dong scanned Hu Bai, Xie Yue, and Hu Liena.
As for Dugu Yan, she didn't consider her; after all, Dugu Yan currently had no soul rings, and letting her go up would be too dangerous.
Although Hu Liena only had one Charm Soul Skill, her mental power was good, and she could temporarily control a hundred-year-old Soul Beasts for a few breaths.
Moreover, the three of them had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. With their current strength, Nine-Tailed Charm Demon facing a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast one-on-one could definitely win, but there were many Soul Beasts here, so Bibi Dong set this restriction: below ten thousand years!
Dugu Bo's eyes widened. He really wanted to say, Bibi Dong, are you crazy!
But he moved his mouth, and before he could speak, Hu Bai and Xie Yue exchanged glances and smiled: "We can!"
Xie Yue and Hu Bai both cracked their knuckles. They knew this was a test from their teacher, and they indeed needed some experience. The current situation was very suitable!
"Na Na, hide behind us later, understood?" Xie Yue and Hu Bai said in unison, looking at Hu Liena.
Hu Liena looked at the many Soul Beasts, and although she was a little scared, she still stubbornly nodded.
Since her brothers weren't afraid, neither was she!
Then, Hu Bai said to Dugu Yan, "The Iron-Spined Dragon Snake and Poison Flame Earth Dragon here are very suitable as your first and second soul skills. Get ready when the time comes."
The Iron-Spined Dragon Snake, a sub-Dragon species, has a snake body with Dragon scales and a tail like a heavy hammer. Its attack and defense are both formidable.
The Poison Flame Earth Dragon, another sub-Dragon species, has a snake-like body and a dragon head, with red scales all over its body, capable of spewing corrosive, poisonous flames.
Hu Bai quickly recalled information about these two Soul Beasts in his mind.
Although they were not particularly powerful among Dragon-type Soul Beasts, they were still sub-Dragon species, and they had a suppressive force when facing other Soul Beasts of the same level!
After all, in this world, the Dragon Clan Bloodline is the most advanced Bloodline, with pure-blooded True Dragon Bloodline being paramount!
Dugu Yan originally wanted to say a few stubborn words; she also wanted to participate, but looking at Hu Bai's handsome face so close, her heart pounded like a drum, and she couldn't bring herself to say anything unpleasant.
"Then, then I'll trouble you," Dugu Yan forced herself to say, propping up her body.
Actually, normally, even with Hu Bai's handsome face, Dugu Yan wouldn't be so shy. After all, she wasn't completely obsessed with looks but rather admired strength.
From the original work, after the Imperial Fighting Team lost to the Shrek Seven Devils, the reactions of Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng showed that Dugu Yan was actually a very unyielding person. When faced with setbacks, she would rise to the challenge, while Yu Tianheng would fall into inferiority and self-doubt.
Speaking of which, Hu Bai felt that Yu Tianheng really wasn't worthy of Dugu Yan.
With Dugu Bo as a Titled Douluo grandfather, how could Dugu Yan not be considered a little princess?
It was just that Dugu Bo was inherently reclusive and loved freedom; otherwise, if he were to establish his own sect, his status on the continent would probably rise significantly.
Although Yu Tianheng also had a Titled Douluo grandfather, Yu Yuanzhen's thoughts were more focused on Yu Xiaogang. It was impossible for all his favoritism to be on Yu Tianheng; otherwise, with his status, how could Yu Tianxin compete with Yu Tianheng?
But Dugu Yan was different; she was Dugu Bo's only bloodline in this world.
Dugu Bo could join Spirit Hall for Dugu Yan, which he previously didn't want to do (Yue Guan had invited him several times before, but he declined). But could Yu Yuanzhen directly appoint Yu Tianheng as the next Clan Chief? Probably not.
On the way back to Spirit Hall with Hu Bai, his group, and Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, being proud, sparred with Hu Bai.
Of course, the premise was that Hu Bai would not use soul skills and would suppress his soul power to level ten. They would fight fairly, and Dugu Yan didn't believe she could still lose this way.
She always thought that Hu Bai's ability to reach Soul Grandmaster strength within a few months of Martial Soul awakening was due to his luck and talent. If they had the same soul power, he definitely wouldn't be her opponent!
The result was obvious: Dugu Yan lost, and she lost completely!
Dugu Yan had no soul rings, so she could only control her Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul to spit out poisonous mist at Hu Bai. This ability didn't require an attached soul ring; the soul ring only made the Jade Phosphorous Serpent's poison stronger.
And how could Hu Bai not deal with mere poisonous mist? A gust of clear wind blew, and the poisonous mist was instead blown back toward Dugu Yan herself.
