Chapter 91 Capturing a hundred thousand year soul beast embryo?
The snow leopard galloped across the snowy plain. Half an hour later, Tang Wulin finally felt that the vague surveillance had finally disappeared.
He didn't dare delay any longer. It was too dangerous for him to be alone in the Far North.
We must quickly find the soul guide team sent by Tang Yuanhan.
"Snow Leopard, let's go!"
Tang Wulin roared and clamped his legs around the snow leopard's belly.
The snow leopard, which was already exhausted and out of breath, had to continue running wildly according to the direction of the soul guide under his pressure.
The snow leopard carried Tang Wulin through the biting cold wind and across the endless white snow. Following the guidance of the positioning soul guide, they went deep into the heart of the Far North.
The surrounding environment became more and more desolate, and the occasional roar of glaciers breaking revealed the primitiveness and cruelty of this area.
As the journey progressed, the snowflakes in the sky became increasingly dense, obstructing our vision and making the journey more difficult.
Tang Wulin lowered his goggles and paid close attention to everything around him to prevent any sudden attack from soul beasts.
His heartbeat rose and fell with the rhythm of the snow leopard's running, and the Golden Dragon King blood flowing in his body seemed to be slightly agitated in this environment, maintaining his body temperature within a safe range.
More than an hour later, the signal from the positioning soul guide began to grow stronger, which meant that the destination was within reach.
Not far ahead, a makeshift camp came into view. Simple defensive fortifications were arranged around it, and several figures were busy working. They were the soul mentor team arranged by Tang Yuanhan.
"arrive!"
Tang Wulin felt relieved and patted the snow leopard's neck, signaling it to slow down.
The snow leopard responded to its owner's command, slowly slowing down until it stopped not far from the camp, looking extremely tired.
Tang Wulin turned over and got off the leopard, quickly walking towards the camp, while calling out loudly: "I am Tang Wulin, come and join us!"
Hearing his call, the people in the camp quickly became alert, and then a familiar figure emerged from the tent.
The man was wearing a suit, with a big belly like a pregnant woman. The buttons on the suit seemed like they would fall off at any time. He had sparse hair and dark cheeks, and he looked inexplicably funny.
Although he looked young, Tang Wulin knew clearly that the man in front of him was probably even older than Tang Yuanhan.
Niu Banban, the only Titled Douluo in the Yecao Gang, is also a ninth-level soul engineer, and his status is second only to Tang Yuanhan.
What kind of mission would make a strong man like him take action?
He was seen wiping the sweat from his forehead as he walked towards Tang Wulin cheerfully. His round body looked particularly funny on the snow.
“Oh, Xiao Wulin, you actually came here on your own. I said I would come to you in person after the camp is ready.” Niu Banban’s voice was loud and full of joy.
He quickly stepped forward and gave Tang Wulin a warm hug, almost making Tang Wulin breathless.
"Uncle Ben, you are still so energetic."
Tang Wulin smiled and patted Niu Banban on the back, finally freeing himself from this warm embrace.
Niu Banban chuckled and patted his big belly: "Of course, life should be full of passion and vitality.
Come in quickly, it's cold outside, everyone is waiting for you."
Following Niu Banban into the camp, Tang Wulin discovered that although the place was simple, it had everything he needed.
Advanced soul guide components that he had never seen before were scattered in every corner. The most conspicuous soul guide was placed in the center of the camp. It was a cylindrical soul guide with a thin golden shell that distorted the light, as if time and space had been paused.
Even his spiritual power at the Lingyuan realm could not penetrate it and detect the situation inside.
Several well-known officials of the Wild Grass Gang were busy assembling and debugging equipment. When they saw Tang Wulin coming, they all cast friendly glances and smiles at him.
They had watched Tang Wulin grow up since he was a child, so they were quite close to him.
Seeing those precious rare metals and the complex core magic array, he felt underestimated.
"What on earth is father planning to do? Is he planning to hunt down a hundred thousand year old spirit beast?" Tang Wulin frowned and thought. Niu Banban saw the confusion in Tang Wulin's heart.
Patting his shoulder, he pulled him aside and said with a smile, "I know what you are thinking. I will tell you right now. We came to the Far North this time for an embryo."
"Embryos?"
Tang Wulin frowned, not understanding the meaning.
Niu Banban patiently explained: "You know, if a soul beast has cultivated for 100,000 years, it will face two choices. Most soul beasts will choose to continue to challenge the heavenly tribulation and cultivate into fierce beasts, but a small number of soul beasts with extremely poor talents can only choose to transform into embryos and reincarnate as humans to take a gamble.
Our spies in the Xingluo Empire have sent us information that in an ancient relic in the core area of the Far North, there is such a soul beast that chose this path.
If we can capture the soul beast in this state, we will be able to obtain a 100,000-year soul ring and soul bones. According to the most cutting-edge research in the martial arts world, if we absorb this embryo in the eighth or ninth ring, it is very likely that we will directly awaken the second martial soul.
Can you imagine how valuable this thing is?
Of course this has nothing to do with you, it's our mission.
You are looking for the power of the ancient ice dragon, and according to intelligence, there are many real dragon skeletons in the ruins, so your destination should be there."
Tang Wulin understood instantly.
Why did Tang Yuanhan also send out such a luxurious lineup.
But why does this story sound so familiar? He seemed to have heard it from Xie Xie before.
Tang Wulin shook his head and stopped thinking: "Then what do I need to do?"
Niu Banban's eyes flashed with brilliance. "Don't you have dragon blood in your body? I don't know why, but the ice soul beasts living in the core area have started to run away, especially the ice jade scorpions. Help us accurately locate the ruins and drive away the group of ice jade scorpions."
"Now go back to the tent and rest. We will set out tomorrow morning."
Tang Wulin nodded. He felt somewhat uneasy about this task.
Returning to the tent assigned to him, he simply packed his things, then sat cross-legged and began to meditate and regulate his breathing. The blood of the Golden Dragon King slowly flowed through his body, driving away the cold and restoring his strength. He understood that staying in the best condition was crucial for his next mission.
Silent all night.
The next morning, the camp was bustling with activity.
Tang Wulin walked out of the tent, and was greeted by a biting cold wind, but his expression was extremely firm. Niu Banban was already standing next to the soul guide in the center, directing everyone to make the final inspection and preparations.
"Okay, everyone, let's make a final confirmation before departure to ensure that everyone has all the necessary equipment and that the soul guides are in optimal condition."
Niu Banban's deep voice rang out, and everyone's attention was focused.
Soon, under the instructions of Niu Banban, the group was ready to set off towards the mysterious destination.
As they gradually went deeper into the core area of the Far North, the surrounding environment became increasingly harsh, glacier cracks became more frequent, and the cold wind was as sharp as a knife.
The Golden Dragon King's blood boiled in his body, maintaining his body temperature. It emitted a terrifying aura, driving away some weaker soul beasts.
As they went deeper into the heart of the Far North, more and more Ice Scorpions jumped out.
Fortunately, everyone had the simulated soul guide and Tang Wulin's blood pressure to help them avoid multiple sneak attacks.
Finally, after much hardship, they arrived at their destination.
However, when Tang Wulin saw the ruins for the first time, he felt blood rushing to his head, making him a little dazed.
Everyone else in the team, including Niu Banban, was shocked by the horrifying scene.
