Chapter 335 The Mysterious Disappearance of the Spiritual Beast

The morning light of the Soul Beast Forest casts mottled light and shadows through the tall treetops. Qin Feng and his partners are conducting a unique "missing soul beast" investigation here. Their mission is to find the soul beasts that have disappeared frequently in recent times. Although this task sounds a bit tricky, Qin Feng knows that this may be a good opportunity to challenge himself and improve teamwork.

"By the way, how did these spirit beasts disappear?" Chu Tian asked puzzledly while looking around vigilantly.

"Maybe they are tired of life in the forest and decided to go on vacation?" Ye Li said half-jokingly, holding the frost fox's tail in her hand and gently swinging it.

Zhang Meng frowned. "Vacation? How can they go on vacation without any luggage?"

Wang Yue smiled and said, "Don't be so serious, Zhang Meng. We just want to make the atmosphere more relaxed. Look, isn't Qin Feng also very relaxed?"

Qin Feng was walking leisurely in front of the team, seemingly unaffected by the urgency of the mission. The Dragon Shadow Sword in his hand was flickering, as if responding to the hidden call of the forest.

"Qin Feng, can't you be more serious?" Chu Tian couldn't help but speak.

Qin Feng turned around with a meaningful smile on his face: "Don't worry, I'm here. No matter where those spirit beasts go, we will definitely find them back."

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the bushes ahead. Everyone immediately became alert, and Chu Tian's Storm Wolf quickly pounced forward, growling and looking vigilantly in the direction of the sound.

"What's that noise?" Zhang Meng asked in a low voice.

Qin Feng waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet. He concentrated and held his breath, slowly walking towards the bushes. At this moment, a furry figure emerged from the bushes, followed by the second, the third... In an instant, more than a dozen rabbit-sized spirit beasts ran out, all of them looked panicked.

"Is this the missing spiritual beast we are looking for?" Wang Yue looked at these little guys in disbelief, "They don't seem to be afraid of us at all."

"Afraid?" Ye Li laughed, "It looks like they are the masters of this place!"

Qin Feng squatted down and observed these spirit beasts carefully: "They look a little strange... Have you noticed that their eyes are dull, as if they were under some kind of spell."

Chu Tian walked forward and stretched out his hand to touch one of the spirit beasts, but the spirit beast dodged easily. "Strange, they seem to be awake, but they don't seem to be under control."

Just as everyone was discussing, suddenly, a particularly large spirit beast jumped out from behind the bushes. This spirit beast was a circle larger than the other spirit beasts, and it was emitting a faint blue light. As soon as it appeared, the other spirit beasts immediately quieted down, as if waiting for its instructions.

Qin Feng's eyes lit up: "It seems that this guy is their leader."

The big spirit beast stood there, staring at Qin Feng and others with its big eyes, as if trying to judge the intentions of these intruders. Suddenly, it turned its head sharply and ran away, followed by the other spirit beasts, disappearing into the depths of the forest.

"Chase!" Qin Feng shouted and rushed out first. Chu Tian, ​​Ye Li, Zhang Meng and Wang Yue followed closely behind. The Storm Wolf and Frost Fox also quickened their pace and chased after the spirit beasts.

The path in the forest was rugged and difficult to walk on. The spirit beasts nimbly shuttled between the trees, and Qin Feng and his party tried their best to keep up. After chasing for a while, they found that these spirit beasts actually led them to an open grassland.

There was a glittering entrance in the middle of the grass, as if leading to an unknown space. The big spirit beast stood at the edge of the entrance, looked back at Qin Feng and others, revealed a mysterious smile, then jumped up and led the other spirit beasts to jump in together.

Qin Feng jumped in without hesitation: "No matter what, let's follow and see!"

"Wait a minute!" Ye Li shouted, but it was too late. She could only sigh and jumped in.

After Qin Feng landed, he found himself standing in a strange space. The surrounding scene seemed to be distorted by some strange force. It was full of spiritual energy. In the distance, he could see some floating islands and suspended waterfalls. Everything seemed unreal.

"Wow, what is this place?" Wang Yue exclaimed.

"Why do I feel like we have fallen into a world of spiritual beasts?" Chu Tian couldn't help but look around.

Qin Feng laughed: "It seems that we have discovered an incredible secret!"

Ye Li looked around vigilantly: "We'd better be careful, there may be a lot of dangers here."

As he was speaking, the big spirit beast appeared again, with wisdom flashing in its eyes. It looked at Qin Feng and his group, as if inviting them to move on.

"It seems like it wants to take us somewhere." Qin Feng guessed, "Everyone follow me closely and don't fall behind."

They followed the big spirit beast through a thick fog, and the view suddenly opened up. In front of them was a huge spirit beast market, where various spirit beasts set up stalls and sold all kinds of spirit herbs and fruits.

"Oh my god, the spirit beasts are doing business?" Chu Tian rubbed his eyes in disbelief, "Am I seeing things?"

Ye Li laughed loudly: "It seems that these spirit beasts really know how to live, and have started a market economy!"

Zhang Meng couldn't help being curious, so he walked to a stall and tried to bargain with the stall owner, a three-eyed monkey spirit beast: "How much is this spirit fruit?"

The monkey made a few grunting sounds, as if it was saying something, but Zhang Meng obviously couldn't understand. He turned his head and looked at Qin Feng helplessly: "What is it saying?"

Qin Feng shrugged: "Who knows? Anyway, it is definitely not a good time to bargain."

At this moment, the big spirit beast let out a long roar, attracting the attention of all the spirit beasts. It jumped onto a high platform, nodded to Qin Feng and others, and then actually began its "speech".

Although Qin Feng and others didn't understand what it said, it was obvious that the other spirit beasts listened with great interest. After the speech, the big spirit beast jumped down from the high platform, walked in front of Qin Feng, and pointed at a mountain not far away with its claws.

"Does it want us to go over there and take a look?" Wang Yue asked puzzledly.

"There's only one way to find out." Qin Feng patted her shoulder, "Let's go and take a look."

They followed the direction indicated by the big spirit beast and came to a mysterious cave under the mountain. There were faint noises coming from the cave entrance, as if something was waiting for them in the depths.

Qin Feng picked up the Dragon Shadow Sword and took a deep breath: "Let's go in and take a look."

They walked into the cave carefully and found that the walls were covered with strange runes, flashing a faint blue light. In the deepest part of the cave, they saw a huge sealed crystal ball, and something seemed to be moving slowly inside.

"What is that?" Ye Li asked in surprise.

At this moment, the thing in the crystal ball suddenly opened its eyes and looked directly at them through the crystal. It was a huge spirit beast, its eyes full of wisdom and power.

"Welcome to my world, brave soul masters." A deep and rich voice sounded in their minds.

"Can it talk?" Chu Tian opened his mouth wide.

"It seems that it can not only speak, but also knows who we are." Qin Feng was also a little surprised.

"I have been looking for warriors like you." The huge spirit beast continued, "Recently, the power of the dark sect is eroding this world. I need your help to protect us."

Qin Feng nodded: "So that's why we came here."

"Are you willing to help us?" The spirit beast's voice was full of anticipation.

Qin Feng turned around and looked at his companions. They all smiled firmly. He nodded and said, "Of course we are willing. We are not only soul masters, but also the guardians of this land."

The big spirit beast nodded with satisfaction: "Then your adventure has just begun."

The light in the cave suddenly shone brightly, covering Qin Feng and his group. They felt a powerful force surging into their bodies, as if they had gained some mysterious power.

"Get ready for new challenges!" said the big spirit beast with a smile.

After returning to the academy, Qin Feng and his companions were very excited. Not only did they find the missing spirit beast, but they also solved a secret about the spirit beast world.

"Today is so exciting!" Zhang Meng said excitedly.

"Yes, we have become allies of the spirit beasts." Chu Tian said with a smile, "This is something I have never thought of before."

Qin Feng looked at his companions with a smile, his eyes full of anticipation: "It seems that our adventure has just begun. Are you ready for more challenges?"

"Of course!" everyone responded in unison.

They laughed heartily, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, they confidently set out on the road back to the college.
