Chapter 8 Absorption! Four hundred years of thunder snake.

Later, Master Gong brought Li Xingyi and Teacher Li to his cabin, while he went to the breeding area alone to select a suitable soul beast.

The soul beast can be absorbed as long as the soul master completes the final blow.

Therefore, whenever someone obtains a spirit ring from Shrek Academy, Master Gong will directly cripple the spirit beast before bringing it back, so as to reduce unnecessary trouble as much as possible.

Li Xingyi is only a six-year-old boy. It is totally unnecessary for him to cultivate so-called skills in fighting soul beasts. Doing so would also bring the risk of getting hurt. Shrek Academy would certainly not let a Sequence One take the risk.

While waiting, Li Xingyi and Teacher Li did not communicate at all and just sat there awkwardly.

About half an hour later, Master Gong came back carrying a purple snake-shaped soul beast.

The soul beast was about two meters long, with a typical diamond-shaped head like a venomous snake, and bursts of thunder were constantly emanating from its body.

"Boy, you are lucky. This Thunder Snake was captured from the wild just last week. It is 415 years old. It is a perfect match for you."

While sighing, Gong Lao threw the dying Thunder Snake to Li Xingyi's feet.

Li Xingyi summoned his martial soul and chopped it down with a knife.

hiss--

The Thunder Snake died completely after letting out its final cry.

After it died, yellow balls of light began to emerge from its body. These balls of light rose up for a distance and then stopped...

As the light cluster continued to gather, it gradually took on a ring shape.

This is the soul ring, which is essentially a ring-shaped energy carrier formed by the energy condensed from the body of a soul beast after its death.

"Thank you, Mr. Gong." Li Xingyi bowed to Mr. Gong to express his gratitude.

Old Gong waved his hand and said indifferently: "That's not necessary. It's just my job. You should absorb the soul beast quickly and stop wasting time."

Li Xing immediately sat down cross-legged, concentrated his mind, and a strand of soul power emerged from his body and wrapped around the soul ring.

Soul power and soul ring are linked.

The energy of the soul beast gradually flowed into Li Xingyi's body.

At the same time, Li Xingyi's consciousness suddenly came into his spiritual sea.

The spiritual sea is generally a deep blue ocean, but Li Xingyi's spiritual sea is a scene of a rainy night in a dream. [Nothingness] is still standing in the farthest place, but this time he did not see Huang Quan's figure.

Not far from him was lying the Thunder Snake.

Although it cannot be seen, Li Xingyi can feel that the soul ring suspended above it is gradually merging with the entire spiritual sea, and will eventually become one, or in other words, the spiritual sea will swallow up the soul ring.

If it was a soul beast that was more than ten thousand years old or had a very deep hatred, it would need to fight in the sea of ​​spirits when absorbing the soul ring, but this four hundred year old Thunder Snake obviously did not need that.

a long time.

The power of the soul ring was completely absorbed by Li Xingyi. He could feel that the power of the Thunder Snake had been integrated with his sea of ​​​​spiritual energy.

Then he took the initiative to withdraw from the sea of ​​​​spirituality.

I opened my eyes and a feeling of comfort spread throughout my body.

After absorbing the four hundred year old Thunder Snake, Li Xingyi's soul power directly reached the twelfth level.

At this moment, he felt full of strength, as if he could knock down a bull with one punch.

"Is it done?" asked Gong Lao beside him.

Li Xing nodded slightly and replied, "Yes, Master Gong, the absorption went very smoothly. I feel like I have endless energy in my body now!"

"This is normal. For a spirit master, the level increase is not that great. Most of the energy is provided by spirit beasts. Plus, this is your first time getting a spirit ring, so it's normal to feel this way." Gong Lao explained. Less than two seconds after he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, so he spoke again: "By the way, absorbing spirit rings in the wild is very dangerous. If you absorb spirit rings in the wild, you must find a few trustworthy companions to protect you."

"Thank you, Mr. Gong. I understand." Li Xing nodded in response.

This feeling made him feel very comfortable, and an expectant smile appeared on his face unconsciously. He couldn't wait to try out this soul skill.

As a beast keeper in the beast fighting area, Mr. Gong has seen too many expressions like this, so he can naturally see through the meaning behind them.

"Come on, kid, let's go to the beast fighting area and I'll find you a soul beast for you to practice with!"

"really?"

"Tsk~ This is my territory, how can I lie to you?"

……

A few minutes later, the three of them appeared in the beast fighting area in front of the breeding area.

The overall structure of this beast fighting area is exactly the same as that of the fighting arena, just like the Colosseum in ancient Rome.

In the center there is a rectangular platform, which is the fighting area. Towards the outside is a wall formed by continuously rising circular steps, with seats placed on each step.

Teacher Li and Li Xingyi stood in the battle area waiting.

On the other side, Master Gong went to look for a soul beast with sufficient combat power.

"Teacher Li, if I accidentally kill the soul beast I raised, will you ask me to compensate?" Li Xingyi asked with some concern.

However, this sentence made Teacher Li next to him laugh.

"Haha... what you said is true. Aren't the soul beasts raised here meant to be killed? Besides, it was Elder Gong who asked you to kill them. It's none of your business if they die."

"Is that so?"

Time passed quickly as Li Xingyi and Teacher Li chatted with each other.

In addition to the pedestrian passage between the breeding area and the animal fighting area, there is also a large corridor with five iron gates.

Old Gong grabbed a wolf-like soul beast by the neck with one hand and walked out of the iron gate.

"Boy, this is a 600-year-old wolf, the most common soul beast without attributes. Its advantages are its super-fast speed and impressive strength... To be honest, this wolf is stronger than a 12th-level soul master, but I think your powerful martial soul may not mean you can't beat it. What do you think?"

It is obvious that since Mr. Gong asked this, it cannot be as simple as it seems on the surface.

This is most likely a test!
Although the specific content and significance of the test are unclear, choosing to take the test is definitely a wise choice.

"Master Gong, as a spirit master, how can you be afraid of death and not strive for progress? Since you can bring Canglang out, it means you can protect me. So what should I be afraid of? I will fight!"

"Huh?! Good boy, you think of me as your bodyguard?" Old Gong said jokingly.

However, in his mind, he labeled Li Xingyi as "smart".

Just as Li Xingyi thought, he really had to protect Li Xingyi, and not allow even a hair on his body to be damaged.

Master Gong came to the arena and released his soul power to form a protective shield.

At the same time, this is also a barrier, and neither Li Xingyi nor Canglang can leave the range of the shield.

"Let's get started. I'm increasingly looking forward to seeing you, kid."

After saying that, Master Gong threw Canglang to the other side of the platform...
