Chapter 24
Absolute Suppression
Battles between spirit beasts are often wild and illogical.
The baboons delivered brutal blows, causing the fiery lions to howl in agony. Despite their injuries, the baboons showed no sign of backing down. After defeating one lion, they would quickly find their next target and trade blows with their opponent.
Such a spectacular scene is far more exciting than battles between Soul Masters.
This is a decisive battle for survival and territory, and neither side is willing to back down.
But what no one could have imagined was that the war between these ants would attract the covetous eyes of an elephant.
"Little Fan, take good care of your two sisters. I'll catch a spirit ring for each of you!"
Xuanzi licked his lips. They were incredibly lucky to have gathered the most suitable soul beasts together.
Looking up, there was a Flame Demon Lion over 500 years old, a Vajra Baboon around 700 years old, and a Vajra Baboon with a thousand years of cultivation. Aren't these the soul rings that the children need?
The spectacular battle before his eyes was indeed astonishing, but amidst the astonishment, Ning Fan was overjoyed.
The soul ring needs of the three can be met in one go. Now, there's no need to worry about Elder Xuan's death aura causing any irreversible losses to this trip!
Just as the young men and women were deeply shocked by the battlefield where the soul beasts were fighting, Elder Xuan, who had placed them on the outskirts, had disappeared without a trace.
Looking up again, a disheveled old man was already riding on the back of the Flame Lion King, who had cultivated for a thousand years.
As the leader of the Flame Lion Clan, the Flame Lion King played an indispensable role in the team. However, even with its powerful cultivation, it was completely unaware of when this old thing had mounted its back.
Confusion, followed by a surge of near-mad anger!
Just as the lion king's giant mouth was gathering red light, about to spew out a ball of fire to teach this arrogant old fellow a lesson, the old man Xuan riding on its back chuckled.
"Hehe, you're the only useless one, I'll make an example of you!"
In the outer areas where century-old soul beasts roam, the Flame Lion King with a thousand-year cultivation is still considered rare.
However, no one present could absorb the spirit ring of this thing. Xuan Lao's greasy hand simply reached into the thick fur of the Lion King and gently pinched it. In the midst of the chaotic battle, an extremely loud wail was heard. The Flame Lion King, who was in charge of command, collapsed with a thud, shaking the entire earth.
Elder Xuan disdained using his soul power to bully these soul beasts, especially since Ning Fan and the others were watching closely, and he didn't want his soul power fluctuations to frighten the children.
In the center of the battlefield, the disheveled old man exerted only a slight effort, and the Lion King collapsed to the ground. Before long, a dazzling purple soul ring lit up from its corpse.
As the spirit ring shone, the Vajra Baboon and the Flame Lion on the spirit beast battlefield gradually stopped fighting and stared in surprise at the old man who had suddenly barged in.
"roar--"
The next moment, almost all the Flame Lions burst into an extremely fierce roar.
The death of their leader completely enraged them, causing them to temporarily set aside their hatred for the King Kong Baboon and turn around to attack Elder Xuan.
But the lion demons' fierce attacks were no match for Elder Xuan; they were less than children playing around.
A fierce, fiery lion charged forward angrily, its mouth full of fangs, vowing to avenge its leader.
But its all-out attack was slapped to the ground by Elder Xuan, who even smacked his lips in disdain afterward.
"This won't work. The age limit is still too high; it's not enough for that young girl to absorb."
One after another, vengeful demonic lions charged forward, and Elder Xuan took the opportunity to choose which one was more suitable for Wu Feng.
"This one won't do either. He's full of fierce and bloodthirsty energy; that little girl probably won't be able to control it."
"Hey, is this osteomalacia?"
"Wait, how come it's been around for two hundred years?"
……
One punch knocked down a terrifying demonic lion. If the previous battle between the soul beasts was a visual feast, then after Elder Xuan took action, it became a one-sided crushing defeat.
He casually knocked down the demonic lions one by one as if he were picking vegetables at a market, without drawing blood at all.
Before long, a demonic lion that looked to be in good shape was caught in Xuan Lao's hand as if he were catching a cat.
After examining it carefully for a while, Elder Xuan finally gave it a light tap on the forehead with satisfaction.
Instantly, the fire demon lion, which had cultivated for 560 years, convulsed and soon fainted.
It seems that Wu Feng's spirit rings have finally been secured.
"Awooo..."
Realizing something was wrong, the leader of the gorilla baboons finally reacted, roared, and led his people in a frantic retreat.
But in front of a Super Douluo, their speed is no different from that of a snail.
After casually tossing the unconscious Flame Lion in his hand toward Ning Fan and the others, Elder Xuan leaped off the ground and charged into the fleeing troop of Vajra Baboons like a soul-guided cannonball.
In an instant, the ground collapsed, and a loud bang was heard.
Before the children could even observe the new battle, Elder Xuan had already returned to Ning Fan and the others, one holding a Vajra baboon in each hand.
If the Super Douluo fails to capture a thousand-year-old soul beast again, Xuanzi will be finished!
Of course, Xuanzi also grabbed a few poor roe deer that had been accidentally injured in the previous battle of soul beasts and were unable to escape. He stared intently at Ning Fan, so why would he need to think about what he was going to do?
"Hehe, Little Fanzi, now you should cook me a decent meal, right?"
Having captured three soul beasts alive and incidentally brought them to tonight's dinner, Elder Xuan proudly boasted of his achievement.
Ning Tian and Wu Feng were completely dumbfounded, while the young man smiled and gave Elder Xuan a thumbs up.
This is the absolute suppressive power of the strong. Staring at the unconscious soul beast that Elder Xuan carried back to the camp, the two girls felt endless longing.
Once I absorb their soul rings, I will gradually reach the same level as Elder Xuan!
But the gluttonous Elder Xuan said he wasn't in a hurry.
After capturing several soul beasts suitable for children, he first dealt with a few roe deer that had been affected by the battle, hoping that Ning Fan could cook a hot meal for them.
Absorbing a soul ring is also a physically demanding task. Even if the attributes and age are corresponding, the soul master must guard their mind and not be overwhelmed by the lingering resentment of the soul beast.
Otherwise, at best their martial spirit will be damaged, and at worst they will die on the spot.
Everything was going so smoothly, and Ning Fan didn't want things to go wrong at this last step.
Therefore, as soon as he returned to the camp, he led everyone in meditation, determined to reach their optimal state.
As night fell and after a hot dinner, Elder Xuan, after confirming that everyone was in good spirits, handed Ning Tian and Wu Feng each a steel knife.
"Hehe, based on my many years of experience, the lower jaw of most creatures is an extremely vulnerable point. Insert this in, and you can absorb the spirit ring."
At this point, Elder Xuan's tone changed, becoming very serious.
"However, although you have already learned about spirit rings, I still have to warn you that the improvement of a spirit master is destined to be an uncomfortable process. No matter how much pain you experience during the absorption of a spirit ring, you must guard your mind, understand?"
"Uh-huh!"
Taking the steel knife, Wu Feng nodded eagerly.
She used a great deal of strength to barely kill the already unconscious fire lion.
Soon, a bright yellow spirit ring slowly rose from the demonic lion's corpse, exuding a scorching aura.
Compared to Wu Feng's expectations, Ning Tian was somewhat timid.
She made a huge decision before raising her knife, aiming it at the neck of the 600-year-old giant baboon, closing her eyes, and plunging it in.
After a long while, the girl opened her eyes and stared at the century-old soul ring slowly floating in front of her. Suddenly, she remembered something and spoke.
"Elder Xuan, isn't Cousin Ning Fan coming with us?"
As he spoke, Ning Tian glanced back at the boy in the distance.
At this moment, Ning Fan had already cleaned up the bones in the camp and was sitting quietly by the fire, deep in thought. Beside him was the still unconscious Thousand-Year-Old King Kong Baboon.
"Hehe, Xiao Fanzi's situation is a bit special, so some preparations are needed. Alright, you can begin now. I will protect you and use your soul power to guide the soul rings!"
"oh."
The girl responded, lowered her eyes slightly, and let out a soft breath.
In this situation, with her family not around, Ning Tian was still a little scared, but she overcame her fear and quickly sat down cross-legged.
Hold your breath, meditate, and mobilize your soul power...
Under the pull of soul power, the golden baboon's hundred-year soul ring quickly landed on Ning Tian's head, and Wu Feng did the same to him.
Under the protection of Elder Xuan, they quickly entered a meditative state.
