Chapter 68 An Encounter with the Soul Hunter Team
After breaking through to the Soul Douluo level, Shen Hanyu's speed increased by another level. Not to mention that his second martial soul was born with the ability to fly. When fully activated, his speed was no less than that of some titled Douluo. From the perspective of outsiders, he appeared briefly in sight like a streak of light across the sky, and then disappeared without a trace in a moment.
The wind and snow in the high sky were obviously more fierce than those below, but it did not affect Shen Hanyu's speed at all. A pair of magnificent two-colored dragon wings flapped behind him, and the ice and fire energies in the surrounding world were also drawn in, even briefly causing significant changes in the nearby celestial phenomena.
This is undoubtedly amazing.
Looking down from high above, Shen Hanyu noticed a number of soul beasts scattered around, including a huge one-horned ice demon rhinoceros and a snow giant engaged in fierce combat.
The one-horned ice rhinoceros once had the upper hand with its powerful physique and strength, but the snow giant's speed and intelligence were not to be underestimated.
With its clever mind, the slightly younger Snow Giant managed to fight the One-Horned Ice Demon Rhino to a standstill. Before long, both were covered in blood and their strength began to rapidly decline. In the end, the One-Horned Ice Demon Rhino realized that something was wrong and ran away.
It is not very intelligent, but it still has a basic sense of danger.
Running away is its best option now; otherwise, if the fight continues, it will probably become the Snow Giant's meal tonight.
On the other hand, the Snow Giant also had many wounds, but none of them were life-threatening. Watching the fleeing One-Horned Ice Demon Rhinoceros, the Snow Giant roared but did not choose to chase after it. Instead, it sniffed the air like a hunting dog before its fierce gaze fell on Shen Hanyu, who was standing on a snow-capped mountain in the distance.
Shen Hanyu frowned. He really hadn't expected this big guy to have such a good sense of smell, able to detect him so quickly from such a distance.
However, it will regret its choice for the rest of its life...
…………
The furious and fierce roar was quite abrupt in the empty snowfield, and the snow giant's ten-meter-tall body arrived in front of Shen Hanyu at an astonishing speed.
A huge, hairy hand, even larger than Shen Hanyu, slammed down on him. Shen Hanyu leaped to the side, avoiding even the falling snow.
A dazzling spear light shot into the sky, severing the giant hand of the snow giant. Crimson blood cascaded down like a waterfall, and the veins and flesh inside were instantly covered with frost.
The snow giant let out a heart-wrenching wail that shook the heavens. Then, its massive body staggered back a few steps, its mouth full of sharp fangs and gaping maw barely visible. Its robust body trembled slightly from the intense pain.
Shen Hanyu showed no mercy. The next moment, he channeled his soul power and soared into the sky. The Frost Heaven Spear in his hand was hurled by a terrifying force, transforming into a streak of light that pierced directly through the brain of the Snow Giant.
In an instant, red, yellow, and white snowflakes fell onto the snow, creating a striking and dramatic scene.
The snow giant's body slowly collapsed, its massive form falling to the ground and causing the surrounding earth to tremble slightly.
Shen Hanyu retrieved the Frost Sky Spear and, after confirming that the Snow Giant had not produced any soul bones, quickly left. The environment here was too terrible, and he did not want to stay in such an environment for another day or two.
Having dealt with the Snow Giant, a scapegoat who was beyond saving, Shen Hanyu had encountered virtually no other unusual soul beasts along the way. He continued flying deeper into the area. With his keen senses, Shen Hanyu quickly frowned from a distance. After a moment's hesitation, he slightly shifted his direction, flapping his wings to dispel the perennial ice mist around him, making the hazy scenery below a little clearer.
At the same time, Shen Hanyu finally saw the faces of the group of people below.
There were five beautiful women, three of whom emanated energy fluctuations belonging to the Soul Emperor level. A woman with seven perfectly matched soul rings flashing under her feet walked at the front, clearly a Soul Saint level expert. Another woman with a weak aura was surrounded by the four of them. Her blue and white dress was completely stained red with blood, making her look incredibly alluring.
Not far behind the group of five, a huge white wolf followed closely behind them, its fierce eyes filled with greed and hunger.
Shen Hanyu stopped in mid-air, sizing up the giant wolf that was over eight meters long.
After a moment's thought, he remembered that this was a soul beast called a snow wolf, which was quite common in the far north. However, judging from its enormous size, its cultivation level was already over 60,000 years, which was quite rare. No wonder these human women couldn't defeat it.
The leading Soul Saint woman turned her head to observe from time to time, her face somewhat pale. She then turned back and said something to the three uninjured women behind her. After that, she resolutely stopped, and the black Soul Ring ranked seventh under her feet lit up, making her feel much lighter.
A pair of antlers, as if carved from white jade, slowly appeared on her head, and her body was covered in snow-white fur. A snow-white deer tail swayed in the air behind her, making her look very endearing.
Snow Spirit Deer Martial Soul!
Shen Hanyu recognized it almost immediately. As one of the few deer-type martial souls that excels in combat, the Snow Spirit Deer was already quite famous in the far north. However, this was the first time Shen Hanyu had encountered a human with this martial soul, let alone a Soul Saint.
However, looking at his clothes, Shen Hanyu's gaze was a little strange. If he remembered correctly, wasn't this the uniform of a teacher from Tianshui Academy? If it was true, then this really was a strange coincidence.
As the fifth soul ring under the Snow Spirit Deer Soul Saint's feet lit up, a huge white magic circle appeared above the Snow Wolf King's head. Wisps of cold air emanated from the magic circle. The next moment, countless sharp ice swords fell from the sky as fast as falling meteors, carrying a heavy killing intent.
The Snow Wolf King roared to the sky, but instead of fleeing, it chose to take the attacks head-on.
Shen Hanyu frowned, carefully sensed it for a moment, and murmured:
"A soul skill is locked? That's rare..."
As the countless ice swords slowly disappeared, wounds appeared on the Snow Wolf King's body, and blood gushed out, adding a lot of crimson stains to its white fur.
The Snow Wolf King licked the largest wound on his right shoulder, then walked step by step toward the Snow Spirit Deer Soul Saint, appearing completely unharmed...
