#67 - Mutated Ghost Vine, Anna's Second Soul Ring
After several more days of travel, the group finally arrived at the outer edges of the Star Dou Great Forest. Davis needed to find a suitable Soul Beast for Anna first.
“Sacred White Tiger, possess!”
“Icefire Evil Eye, open!”
The Icefire Evil Eye, one red and one blue, when opened, made Davis seem to have activated the Byakugan. His eyesight far surpassed Xiao Bie San's Purple Demon Eyes.
Furthermore, due to consuming the Autumn Water-Penetrating Dew, he could also see through transformed Soul Beasts. For example, Little Wu would have no place to hide before him.
Davis looked around, especially at the surrounding trees, not even a single leaf could escape his eyes.
He searched for an hour, during which he saw many plant-type Soul Beasts, but they were either not old enough or their attributes were incompatible.
Now, Anna had already consumed the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo, her Spirit had evolved into the Ink Jade Divine Grass, and then she consumed the Nine-Rank Azure Spirit Pill to improve her physique. Her second Soul Ring could absorb at least two thousand years, or even two thousand five hundred years.
“Brother Davis, I saw a Ghost Vine, maybe it's suitable for Nana. But that Ghost Vine looks so strange.”
Zhu Zhuqing, who was scouting in the trees, murmured. Hearing this, Davis quickly came to her side and looked at the blood-red Ghost Vine.
The Ghost Vine is an extremely terrifying plant-type Soul Beast. It has extremely strong neurotoxins. Once pierced by the thorns on it, the toxins will immediately spread, turning the victim into pus and becoming fertilizer for the Ghost Vine.
When it attacks, it will release countless tiny seeds that directly parasitize the enemy, absorbing their nutrients.
Tang San obtained his second Soul Skill, Parasitism, by killing a seven-hundred-year-old Ghost Vine.
Looking at the Ghost Vine, Davis was a little surprised, because ordinary Ghost Vines are green, which can be well hidden in the autumn leaves to protect themselves, making it difficult for Soul Masters and natural enemies to find them.
But the Ghost Vine in front of him was dark red, as conspicuous as a red-banded snake. Could it be a mutated Soul Beast?
Davis murmured: “This mutated Ghost Vine's cultivation is about two thousand two hundred years. If we hunt it, Nana should also get a Soul Skill similar to Parasitism.”
“Parasitism… that's not a bad Soul Skill either.”
Among Tang San's first five Soul Skills, Davis felt that only the second Soul Skill, Parasitism, was somewhat useful in the later stages.
His first, third, and fourth Soul Skills were nothing to speak of. The good Blue Silver Emperor insisted on playing with poison.
As for the fifth Soul Skill, Blue Silver Overlord Spear, as a weapon-type Soul Skill, it would be a powerful skill if Tang San used it to fight enemies at close range.
But Tang San threw the Blue Silver Overlord Spear out as a hidden weapon, which Davis couldn't understand.
Hidden weapons, hidden weapons, the main point is to be unexpected. What's the point of throwing such a big Blue Silver Overlord Spear out as a hidden weapon?
But Parasitism is completely different. If used well, it can have an unexpected effect.
Thinking of this, Davis asked Anna: “Nana, what do you think of this Ghost Vine? If you absorb its Soul Ring, you should get a good Soul Skill.”
Anna replied without hesitation: “Brother Davis, I'll listen to you. Whatever Soul Ring you want me to absorb, I'll absorb.”
“Okay, then it's this Ghost Vine. This Ghost Vine is a mutated Soul Beast, and its strength is much stronger than ordinary Ghost Vines. The Soul Skill produced should also surpass ordinary Ghost Vines.”
After saying that, Davis ordered Lin Qiuyang: “Dean Lin, I'll leave it to you.”
“Your Highness, this is a Soul Beast with more than two thousand years of cultivation. Can Miss Anna absorb it?”
Lin Qiuyang hesitated a little. Anna's talent was even better than Davis'. If something went wrong with such a good seedling, he would definitely be heartbroken.
“Don't worry, Dean Lin. I consumed the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo and the Nine-Rank Azure Spirit Pill. My physical fitness is far superior to ordinary people, and my Spirit is known as the King of Plants. It will be very smooth when absorbing the Soul Ring produced by plant-type Soul Beasts.”
Seeing that Anna herself agreed, Lin Qiuyang didn't say anything more, “Okay then.”
Lin Qiuyang released the Xuan Iron Sword and stabbed at the mutated Ghost Vine on the tree, creating a burst of sword energy that cut through the void and came straight at the mutated Ghost Vine!
Whoosh!
The sword energy storm swept through the mutated Ghost Vine's body. In an instant, the mutated Ghost Vine fell to the ground covered in wounds.
Lin Qiuyang said: “Miss Anna, now's the time!”
“Received!”
Hearing this, Anna immediately released the Ink Jade Divine Grass Spirit. In an instant, five ink-black Ink Jade Divine Grasses killed towards the mutated Ghost Vine like spirit snakes, and finally completely bound and entangled it.
“First Soul Skill: Bloodthirsty Entanglement.”
Instantly, the mutated Ghost Vine's vitality was absorbed by the Ink Jade Divine Grass, and the mutated Ghost Vine completely died. Purple Soul Power burst out, turning into a purple Soul Ring floating in the air.
Anna sat cross-legged, manipulating her Soul Power to guide the Soul Ring to attach to her Spirit, and then silently refined the Soul Power in the Soul Ring.
Seeing this, Davis was overjoyed, “Great, Nana has passed the dangerous period, now she just needs to absorb the Soul Power of the Soul Ring!”
Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing smiled at each other. Lin Qiuyang said in disbelief: “I didn't expect Miss Anna's talent to be so amazing! A thousand-year second ring, I have only seen it in my life.”
Lin Qiuyang looked at Anna with the eyes of a monster, thinking that she was indeed the disciple of His Highness the Prince, and she was indeed exceptionally talented.
He originally thought that His Highness the Prince's talent was already invincible, but he didn't expect that someone would be even more valiant than him!
After another half an hour, Anna slowly opened her eyes, and at the same time, the Soul Power in her body burst out instantly.
In one fell swoop, she directly climbed to the level of a twenty-seventh-level Great Soul Master, and then to the twenty-eighth level, the twenty-ninth level, and finally reached the thirtieth level.
“Reached the thirtieth level? So fast!” Davis murmured. Anna consumed the Ink Jade Divine Bamboo and the Nine-Rank Azure Spirit Pill, and also absorbed a second Soul Ring of more than two thousand years beyond the limit.
In addition, Anna had not relaxed her cultivation these days, and even absorbed a lot of plant nutrients. It was only natural that her Soul Power broke through the thirtieth level in one breath.
After waking up, Anna looked at Davis for the first time and smiled: “Brother Davis, I succeeded! And my Soul Power has also broken through the thirtieth level. Next, you have to help me get a third Soul Ring!”
“Thirtieth level!” The Zhu Zhuqing sisters exclaimed: “Nana, have you broken through the thirtieth level?”
“Hehe, of course, helping you get a Soul Ring is no problem, but Nana, tell us about your second Soul Skill first?”
“Okay! My second Soul Skill is called Parasitic Seed.” Anna explained: “It can release seeds to parasitize the bodies of other creatures, to absorb their Soul Power and vitality, and turn it into my own use to increase my Soul Power!
My first Soul Skill can only absorb the Soul Power of plants and plant-type Soul Beasts, but this second Soul Skill can absorb the nutrients of any creature!”
I wish all godfathers a happy National Day!
