Chapter 213: A complete team

This was also the reason that shook Bing Tianliang and his team. It was no wonder he could become champion for both the qualifiers and competition. This was definitely inside information only they knew. Originally, both Yu Tian and Lin Donghui had held back on their opinions toward Bing Tianliang’s intent of looking for Lin Donghui, but it had evidently changed after experiencing his abilities.

“Let’s make a move.” Lan Xuanyu wrapped the golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass on Yu Tian and the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass on Lin Donghui’s body as the entire team moved out. Bing Tianliang remained as the rear guard.

But this time, they looked to be an actual team after having established the initial trust between each other.

Lan Xuanyu had carefully sensed the energy from killing the six Tough Porcupines from before and felt that it was different from the others, as though the energy had been absorbed by his bloodline. It caused the gold-and-silver vortex inside to become brighter and the aura of his bloodline to become marginally stronger.

It was not a great increase, but there was an increase nonetheless.

This inevitably put a thought in his head: could the power of his bloodlines be the origins of his Soul Rings? Was it his bloodlines that bestowed him the Soul Rings? That was why he was different from the rest and able to strengthen the bloodlines of other people.

Naturally, Lan Xuanyu did not see himself as an auxiliary type Soul Master. It was just undertaking different roles at different times. Lan Xuanyu felt that he was able to assume the role of auxiliary type, control type, as well as offense type.

He, however, prefered being a control type, as the feeling of being able to control the entire battlefield was too wonderful. Ji Hongbin had previously taught him that control-type Soul Masters would never rely on their own Soul Skills to control the battlefield, but more of his intellect and knowledge to coordinate Soul Skills and to create the best battlefield for themselves. This was the true meaning of being control-type Soul Masters.

As a result, the reason why Lan Xuanyu was able to perform outstandingly during the qualifiers and competition was because of the crafty, bold, and unconstrained imagination imparted by Yin Tianfan as well as the strong self control taught by Ji Hongbin. The teachings from the two had formed the current Lan Xuanyu.

Of course, everything he currently had was just the beginning. His biggest problem was still the insufficient cultivation.

Although the Tough Porcupines were not powerful soul beasts, their ability to thrive and survive in the region meant that there were few predators around, indicating that the soul beasts around were not too powerful, also hinting that they were currently at the outer regions of the soul beast forest.

Lan Xuanyu gave the firm command to move deeper into the dense forest toward the location where Liu Feng had scouted before. With more manpower and an additional three powerful offense-type Soul Masters, his movement naturally became firmer. Liu Feng scouted at the front, and the five followed behind.

They encountered various waves of soul beasts en route that were all around 100 years of cultivation. Under Lan Xuanyu’s strengthening and command, they swiftly killed off the soul beasts that transformed into strengthening energy with ease.

Lin Donghui and Yu Tian could clearly sense their fighting strength becoming smoother and unhindered with lesser consumption after Lan Xuanyu’s buffs. The effect of his auxiliary support was indeed exceptionally good.

Liu Feng’s task to scout the route as an agility-type Soul Master also began to take effect on them. Not only was he able to return with observations quickly, he was also able to provide assistance in battles.

In fact, Liu Feng did nothing much and only used his first Soul Skill, White Dragon Flash. But the White Dragon Flash was extremely effective with its particular attribute. Unless faced against an opponent that was far stronger than him, it was able to sweep the opponent into the air and temporarily lose control.

Yu Tian and Lin Donghui had an abundance of fighting experience and were both geniuses among their peers. They never let go of such opportunities and naturally responded actively, thus decreasing the amount of consumptions on their end.

After killing three waves of soul beasts, Lan Xuanyu gave the command to rest and reorganize, allowing the group to recover to their peak state. As the strongest of the team, Bing Tianliang did not even have the opportunity to make a move. Qian Lei did not even summon a soul beast as well.

The efficiency of the six was extremely good, and they quickly progressed three kilometers into the forest. Right at this time, they encountered the first 1,000-year soul beast after entering the Spirit Ascension Platform.

Liu Feng shot forward from the treetop and transformed into a streak of light as a pitch-black figure swept past his previous position.

“A 1,000-year Tree Demon! Be careful, it can shift about.” Liu Feng’s figure flickered and shot toward his side. Behind him, thick, black tree branches dropped from above and smashed down on the surrounding trees.

Tree Demon? A 1,000-year at that?

Lan Xuanyu immediately gave his order, “Brother Yu, protect Brother Lin, Brother Lin will take over as main assault after accumulating power. Qian Lei, Gate of Summoning. Brother Bing, prepare to assist. Let’s go.”

Following his commands, the team that had already built a rapport moved forward. As informed, a tree with a trunk that required four to five people to surround appeared before them. It had a pitch-black body that had waving tree branches resembling dancing claws. A strong oppressive power burst forth in the air as the tree branches swiped downward and formed cracking sounds.

The terrifying aura extended toward them when the Tree Demon’s face that was on the trunk opened its large mouth and started to open and close repetitively. The large mouth had faint bloodstains; who knew what soul beast it had eaten?

Underneath the trunk were vines that seemed to bore out from the soil.

It had been aggravated by Liu Feng and flew into a rage as the surrounding vegetation suffered from its wrath and were whipped by its shoots.

Lan Xuanyu squinted his eyes. “It should have a cultivation below 3,000 years of age because it doesn’t have legs yet.”

Tree Demons were more commonly seen in Star Dou Forest. After cultivating within the dense and tall trees, the probability of it gaining sentience was rather high.

Ordinarily, a 1,000-year Tree Demon could produce powerful attacks, and with its newly gained sentience, it would have a mouth.

The majority of Tree Demons were rather gentle by nature, and those with sentience would continue to absorb the best nutrients from the world as well as the soil to grow.

But there were a few Tree Demons that would mutate with evil natures and become black like the one in front of them. These Tree Demons would become devourers and devour weaker soul beasts to strengthen themselves. That was how their cultivation could grow faster.

As long as they cultivated to 10,000 years and beyond, they would grow humanlike eyes. The more eyes it had, the stronger it was.

Legends said that there was once a great ferocious beast formed from an evil Tree Demon that had many eyes and was hailed as the Myriad Demon King.

These information were churned out quickly inside Lan Xuanyu’s head. A Tree Demon that had yet to reach 3,000 years in cultivation was relatively easy to deal with. Simply said, it had no way to move from its original spot, and its roots were unable to leave the soil. Only 3,000 year Tree Demons could do that.

This being the case, the Tree Demon naturally became a live target.

“Brother Yu, please get ready. Once we unfold our attacks, it will definitely retaliate. You will cut off its branches and only need to protect Brother Lin. Ignore everything else. Brother Lin, begin your attacks with a fireball.”

Lin Donghui nodded his head as the Brilliant Sun above his head lit up. With Lan Xuanyu’s buff, the gold-and-red Brilliant Sun blossomed and unleashed a fireball straight to the 1,000-year Tree Demon.

There was not a need to explain as everyone knew that fire attribute Soul Masters could restrain plant-type soul beasts with ease.
