Chapter 109: Hundred Thousand Years of Prison.
Suppressing Elephant. Gazing at the enormous red spirit ring before him, Xiao Fei summoned the Vast Sea Universe Shield and used the Vast Sea Protective Shield skill, enveloping the entire Xuanming Turtle and everyone else. Space trembled, and the seven people and the spirit beast vanished as if into thin air.
Xiao Fei sat down and began absorbing the Xuanming Turtle's spirit ring. Perhaps due to the presence of two soul cores within his body, Xiao Fei absorbed the spirit ring much faster, but he felt that the energy and boost it brought him rivaled that of the Evil Demon Killer Whale King.
After absorbing the spirit ring, Xiao Fei's spirit power had reached level 95. The Xuanming Turtle's spirit ring granted him two defensive spirit skills. Previously, all of Xiao Fei's spirit rings had been offensive, and finally, he had a defensive one. This was why Xiao Fei wanted to absorb the Xuanming Turtle's spirit ring.
Otherwise, this spirit ring would likely be even more powerful for Niu Gao, who was about to break through. He decided to use it for himself now, and Niu Gao would find it for him later.
Xiao Fei collected the Xuanming Turtle's spirit bone, a surprisingly formidable-looking torso bone. Then they stored the entire corpse into their soul storage device. The Xuanming Turtle's corpse completely occupied Xiao Fei's largest soul storage device.
Next, Xiao Fei put away the Vast Sea Universe Cover, and everyone seemed to return to the tense atmosphere of the Star Dou Great Forest.
Huo Wu smiled and said, "Xiao Fei, since we have such a valuable item, why don't we use it regularly? That way we can get more rest."
Xiao Fei shook his head. "This time, we're hunting soul beasts more for training, to prepare us for emergencies. If we use the Vast Sea Universe Cover the entire time, then our visit to the Star Dou Great Forest would be meaningless."
Everyone nodded thoughtfully.
Xiao Fei and the other seven continued their exploration of the Star Dou Great Forest.
The deeper they went into the core area, the higher the quality and the stronger the soul beasts seemed to be. Soul beasts of 80,000 or 80,000 years old were encountered almost daily. There were even quite a few 90,000-year-old soul beasts. Most of these were larger than Xiao Fei had expected, which was not quite what he expected.
For example, the 90,000-year-old Thunder Eagle they had just encountered was truly a pinnacle of soul beasts. But its speed was far too fast, and its lightning attribute defied Xiao Fei's expectations.
They even encountered a pack of Swift Wind Demon Wolves, moving like the wind. Their leader had reached the ninety-thousand-year level. This was presumably the most suitable for Feng Xiaotian's ninth soul skill. Unfortunately, his soul power level was far below that.
They also encountered two spider-like soul beasts, each eighty or ninety thousand years old. The seven of them cautiously avoided them. This search lasted for half a month, and finally, one day, they heard a mighty roar, clearly that of a top-tier soul beast.
Xiao Fei and the other seven followed the sound and came upon a massive elephant. The elephant was 80 meters long and 30 meters tall, its skin as hard as rock. Its trunk was nearly 50 meters long, and its limbs over 10 meters in diameter. Everyone swallowed hard.
Xiao Fei observed the elephant carefully. The Prison-Suppressing Elephant's cultivation characteristics were all in its trunk. Each ten thousand years gave it a new outline. The trunk of the elephant before him already had nine outlines, and ten more were faintly visible.
"This is the Prison Suppressing Elephant, a legendary soul beast. It's said to be the most powerful of all soul beasts, even surpassing the Titan Ape and the Hercules Bull. Its body is as strong as iron. It's estimated to be over 99,000 years old, very close to a 100,000-year-old soul beast."
"Even now, its combat power is probably comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old Titan Ape. If it were to surpass 100,000 years, its strength would likely rival that of a 200,000-year-old Earth Fire Lizard King."
"This Prison Suppressing Elephant likely possesses innate soul skills, perhaps even innate domains. Everyone should be extremely cautious."
The seven of them followed the Prison Suppressing Elephant for five full days, finally figuring out its basic habits.
Every night, the Prison Suppressing Elephant would retreat to a patch of woods to rest, but during the day, it would wander around, feeding on palm fronds from palm trees, always consuming only the tenderest leaves at the top. Its appetite was so voracious that it would consume nearly an entire forest each day.
The Prison-Suppressing Elephant wasn't seen battling other soul beasts. Presumably, the other soul beasts knew the Prison-Suppressing Elephant's strength and didn't dare provoke it. The Prison-Suppressing Elephant itself was relatively gentle and disliked fighting.
Xiao Fei and the other seven people placed a Beast Soul Pill on a palm leaf, concealing its aura, and then quietly waited for the Prison-Suppressing Elephant to consume it.
They waited for several days before the Prison-Suppressing Elephant finally consumed the Pill. After consuming the Pill, the Elephant seemed unresponsive, leaving Xiao Fei and the others curious. Could it be that the Prison-Suppressing Elephant's bloodline was too high, making the Beast Soul Pill ineffective? Or perhaps the Elephant had consumed too much and wasn't absorbing it quickly enough?
It wasn't until five days later that the Prison-Suppressing Elephant began to transform. Its soul power surged, surprisingly breaking through to the 100,000-year level with ease, and it looked like it would continue to grow.
The seven people simply waited, unhurried.
When the Prison-Suppressing Elephant's soul power reached its peak, Xiao Fei signaled to the others.
"Attack!"
The seven people charged at the Prison-Suppressing Elephant at full speed. This time, Xiao Fei didn't use his spirit form, but instead transformed into a phoenix.
The other six people directly possessed their spirits and attacked the Prison Suppressing Elephant from different directions. Xiao Fei and Feng Xiaotian faced Feng Xiaotian head-on, Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang attacked from both sides, and Shui Bing'er, Niu Meng, and Yang Pojun attacked from behind.
In a split second, the three's attacks reached the Prison Suppressing Elephant.
The Prison Elephant roared, "Human, how dare you challenge me?"
It then swung its trunk directly at Xiao Fei. The Prison Elephant clearly sensed that Xiao Fei posed a greater threat than the others. With each swing of the Prison Elephant's trunk, Xiao Fei felt a tremendous force, as if it could split mountains and shatter rocks. Xiao Fei quickly dodged the Prison Elephant's attack.
Although the Prison Elephant's body was bulky and its limbs slow, its trunk was incredibly agile. After missing the target, it swung at Feng Xiaotian. Fortunately, Feng Xiaotian was more agile and managed to dodge.
Xiao Fei gritted his teeth, his seventh spirit ring flashing, and he immediately activated his seventh spirit ability, Martial Soul True Form. A fire phoenix over a hundred meters long appeared in the sky.
Seeing this, the others immediately activated their spirit true forms as well.
The Prison Elephant's trunk swung at Xiao Fei again. This time, Xiao Fei didn't dodge, but instead used his third and fourth spirit abilities: Phoenix Flame Claws. His claws collided with the Prison Elephant's trunk in mid-air, leaving two huge scratches on the Prison Elephant's trunk, and Xiao Fei was thrown back dozens of meters.
Seeing this, the others continued their attacks. Xiao Fei immediately flew over and attacked the Prison Suppressing Elephant's trunk and head, forcing it to stop attacking the others with its trunk. The others focused their attacks on its limbs.
In less than half an hour, the Prison Suppressing Elephant was covered in wounds. Various scars appeared, including claw marks deep enough to reveal the bone.
"Human, you have angered me!"
"Prison Suppressing!" the two words rang out from the Prison Suppressing Elephant's mouth.
Suddenly, the Prison Suppressing Elephant's front body lifted up, as if standing upright. An astonishing pressure emanated from the Prison Suppressing Elephant, feeling like a mountain was bearing down on everyone, especially Xiao Fei in front. Feng Xiaotian, along with Niu Gao and the others, had already joined forces to attack the Prison Suppressing Elephant's hind legs.
The Prison Suppressing Elephant's legs suddenly slammed directly towards Xiao Fei, seemingly locking onto him, rendering him unable to move. Xiao Fei gritted his teeth, and his eighth spirit ring flashed, activating his eighth spirit skill: Phoenix Light. A beam of red fire, the phoenix's innate flame, met the Prison Suppressing Elephant's front legs.
The flames struck the Prison Elephant's front legs, and it let out a shrill scream.
Xiao Fei seized the opportunity to activate his right arm soul bone skill: Lizard King Claw. A massive claw appeared from thin air and clawed directly at the Prison Elephant. The Prison Elephant swung its trunk to block, but the giant claw severed its trunk.
The Prison Elephant let out another shrill scream. Everyone redoubled their efforts, continuing to attack the Prison Elephant. Soon, the Prison Elephant lay on the ground, barely breathing.
The others stopped attacking, and Xiao Fei approached the Prison-Suppressing Elephant. "Senior, you've lost. We've observed you for a few days. You prefer peace and quiet, disliking combat. Unless absolutely necessary, we have no desire to become your enemy. If you are willing to sacrifice yourself to me, I will resurrect you as a divine beast after I attain deification."
"You intend to kill me, have injured me so severely, and yet you still want me to sacrifice you?"
"Having come to this, the outcome will be the same whether you sacrifice yourself or not. I swear on my martial spirit that if you sacrifice yourself to me, I will resurrect you when I ascend to deity. If you break this oath, your martial spirit will be shattered."
After following him for the past few days, Xiao Fei had grown quite fond of this innocent elephant, finding its personality very similar to his own.
The Prison-Suppressing Elephant seemed to understand that this was its last chance, or it would be killed immediately. It had no chance of escape or self-destruction.
"Okay, I promise. I hope you fulfill your oath," the Prison-Suppressing Elephant said helplessly.
The sky suddenly filled with a red glow, as if time and space had been locked. A huge red soul ring appeared above the Prison-Suppressing Elephant, and the soul ring gradually transferred to Xiao Fei's Qilin Arm Martial Soul, and Xiao Fei's soul power soared again.
The sacrifice time was very short. In just a few hours, Xiao Fei completely absorbed the Prison-Suppressing Elephant soul ring.
The Prison-Suppressing Elephant's original body also had a huge trunk bone. This was just communicated with the Prison-Suppressing Elephant. The soul bone after the sacrifice did not need to be absorbed. The soul of the Prison-Suppressing Elephant was hidden in the soul ring.
Xiao Fei put the Prison-Suppressing Elephant trunk bone into the Phoenix Ring.
At this point, Xiao Fei's soul power has reached level 96. Because it was a sacrifice, Xiao Fei's soul power is very condensed and his physical condition is also very perfect. This is the benefit of sacrifice.
In addition, golden lines have appeared on Xiao Fei's right hand, and the Qilin Arm Martial Soul seems to have a tendency to evolve again.
