#37 - Bloodthirsty Vine

After "examining" Dugu Yan's body, Dugu Bo managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "Don't worry, Yan'yan, you're not poisoned. You're very healthy!"

"Phew, that's good." Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Since Grandpa said she was fine, then she definitely was.

"Yan'yan, you stay home and cultivate properly. Grandpa has something to go out for."

… …

In the courtyard of the Star Luo City Prince's Mansion, Anna was cultivating her soul power.

Suddenly, a crisp cracking sound, like popping beans, rang out from her body, and a powerful soul force suddenly erupted, like a surging wave. At the same time, she also felt like something inside her had broken through.

Anna opened her eyes, revealing her black pearl-like beautiful eyes, and said in surprise, "Brother Davis, I broke through! I broke through! My soul power has broken through level ten!"

"Oh? Already level ten? Great, Nana!" Davis's eyes lit up when he heard this. It had been a month since he adopted Anna.

In this short month, Anna not only beautifully completed the physical training arranged by Davis, but also did not neglect meditation and cultivation.

And she was already able to take Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Jelly. Now Anna's physical fitness has reached a terrifying level, and even the energy of Ten-Thousand-Year Whale Jelly can no longer improve her body.

"As expected of a genius with innate soul power as high as level nine. It took me half a year to cultivate to level ten."

After a pause, Davis smiled and said, "Nana, now that your soul power has reached level ten, shall we go get a soul ring now?"

"Okay, Brother Davis, I can't wait to become a Soul Master," Anna said with a smile.

In this month, she had already witnessed the dazzling soul skills of Davis, Zhu Zhuyun, and others, and she was vaguely looking forward to what kind of soul skill she would get if she also became a Soul Master.

"Okay, let's not delay. Let's set off now. Uncle Li, prepare the carriage! We're going to the Star Dou Great Forest!"

"Ah? Going to the Star Dou Great Forest?" Li Hu was taken aback and said in surprise, "Your Highness, is it necessary to go to the Star Dou Great Forest just to obtain the first soul ring? Wouldn't it be better to go to the nearby Soul Hunting Forest?"

"No, I've basically been to the nearby Soul Hunting Forests. There are too few plant-type soul beasts inside; besides Blue Silver Grass, it's almost impossible to find any plant-type soul beasts. It's better to go directly to the Star Dou Great Forest."

Although plant-type martial souls can also absorb soul rings produced by animal soul beasts, conflicts are inevitable during absorption. Soul Masters with plant-type martial souls should preferably absorb soul rings produced by plant-type soul beasts.

Look at Little Loser, the good Blue Silver Emperor was directly ruined by Yu Xiaogang. A life-attribute martial soul insisted on playing with poison. The first, third, and fourth soul rings were directly ruined, and only the second soul skill, Parasitism, was somewhat useful.

Davis would definitely not make Yu Xiaogang's mistake. Anna's martial soul is Hundred Herbs, and absorbing the soul rings of any plant-type soul beast would not cause conflict, and she could even absorb them beyond her level.

"Okay, Uncle Li, hurry up and prepare the carriage."

"Yes, Your Highness, but since we are going to the Star Dou Great Forest, should we call Dean Lin along?"

"No need, we are only on the outskirts of the forest this time, so there shouldn't be any danger. Besides, even if we encounter danger, I still have a lot of hand grenades, so don't be nervous."

"Yes."

Soon, Li Hu led a carriage, and the three of them set off for the Star Dou Great Forest in a mighty manner.

Li Hu was already very familiar with the road to the Star Dou Great Forest. It only took a week for the three of them to arrive at the edge of the forest.

"Oh my God! Brother Davis! Is this the Star Dou Great Forest? It's so beautiful and magnificent!"

Looking at the lush, towering, and verdant scene in front of her, Anna cheered when she saw such a scene for the first time.

If Davis hadn't pulled her, this silly girl would have plunged into the forest.

Seeing this, Davis couldn't help but smile wryly. When he first came to the Star Dou Great Forest, he was also shocked by the sea of trees in front of him.

However, after witnessing the corpses that could be seen everywhere in the forest, he completely changed his view of the Star Dou Great Forest.

In the forest, Soul Masters are hunting soul beasts, and also hunting weak Soul Masters; soul beasts are eating Soul Masters, and also eating those weak soul beasts.

Here, no one knows whether they are the hunter or the prey?

"Nana, remember. The forest is very dangerous. Don't make loud noises here, or you might attract powerful soul beasts."

"Yes, I know." Anna quickly covered her mouth.

"Okay, let's go."

Li Hu led the way in front, while Davis was always paying attention to the surrounding soul beasts, especially plant-type soul beasts.

"Squeak, squeak!"

Suddenly, a ten-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit suddenly ran over, happily gnawing on a blade of grass, unaware that death was coming.

Whoosh!

The sharp dagger cut through the void, shooting towards the Soft Bone Rabbit's back like a white lightning bolt. With a puff, the Soft Bone Rabbit was pierced through the body by the Soft Bone Rabbit thrown by Davis, and died on the spot.

White soul power emerged from the body and slowly lurked on the corpse of the Soft Bone Rabbit.

"Good! It seems we have lunch." Davis smiled, then came to the corpse of the Soft Bone Rabbit and explained, "Nana, see clearly! When absorbing a soul ring, you must release soul power to attract the soul ring, and add it to your martial soul through meditation, like this."

He released his soul power to attract the soul ring and let the soul ring approach him.

"Since my soul power is only level forty-eight and has not reached the bottleneck, I cannot absorb the soul ring. The soul ring will dissipate after an hour. Let's take a break and look for a soul beast suitable for you in the afternoon."

Davis sat down and roasted the Soft Bone Rabbit. Although it was not advisable to light a fire in the forest, they were currently on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and there was also Li Hu, a Soul Sage, so there was no need to worry about enemies coming.

After lunch, the three continued to move forward, looking for a soul beast suitable for Anna. As the saying goes, Heaven never disappoints those who put their heart into it. After wandering around in the forest for three hours, Davis finally found a soul beast suitable for Anna.

He looked up at a hundred-meter-high tree. On top of the tree, there was an extremely conspicuous blood-colored vine tightly wrapped around the tree trunk.

The vine was covered with sharp barbs, piercing the bark, greedily sucking the tree's nutrients, and then the tree in front of him gradually withered.

Seeing the blood-colored vine, Li Hu, who was knowledgeable and experienced, immediately exclaimed, "Your Highness, that is a Bloodthirsty Vine, a soul beast that survives by parasitizing in the bodies of other creatures and absorbing nutrients!

The longer the Bloodthirsty Vine's tendrils grow, the higher its cultivation. Seeing that its tendrils are nearly seven meters long, its cultivation is obviously a Bloodthirsty Vine with a cultivation of nearly seven hundred years!"
