Chapter 55: Hunting Soul Beasts: Moo Spring Ox
Before Romantina could say something "perverted", Xiao Wu interrupted her and asked Tang San, "What is your first spirit skill?"
Zhou Qing didn't dare to let Romantina continue, otherwise he didn't know what kind of dirty words she would say that would make people think about it but be difficult to say.
“Life savings.”
Tang San nodded slightly to Zhou Qing, "Just like the spirit masters who obtained the wolf hair grass spirit rings in the past, they can accumulate vitality. This strange power can be used to protect the heart meridian, but this should not be the main function. This energy seems to need another outlet to be able to be exerted out of the body... I guess it is the so-called ability to strengthen spirit skills."
It’s a pity that Tang San doesn’t have a second soul ring yet, so he can’t experiment with the specific strengthening effects.
Actually.
Tang San sensed that this accumulated vitality could be used to strengthen his Ghost Shadow Mirage, Crane Controlling Dragon, Mysterious Jade Hand, etc. However, these skills could not be known to Xiao Wu and Romantina, the two people he did not fully trust, for the time being.
"Can you strengthen other people's soul skills?" Zhou Qing asked.
"This... I'm not sure, it shouldn't work, after all, I feel that this energy can't be released directly from the blue silver grass... But I can try it later, maybe it will work." Tang San shook his head, just raised his right hand, and deliberately shook it in front of Zhou Qing - he was sure that Zhou Qing must have noticed the change in his right hand.
Zhou Qing immediately understood that the soul skill of the first soul ring was not good, but if combined with the attached right metacarpal bone, perhaps it would be possible.
"Indeed, the Soul Beast Forest is not a suitable testing site."
As the night deepened, Romantina set up the tent and the four of them took turns to keep watch.
Silent all night.
Day two.
The rising sun shattered the darkness.
Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu packed their bags and, led by Romantina, went to a pond in Notting Forest. After getting some water and washing up, they began to wait.
"The Moo Spring Cow will come here to drink water. We just need to hide in the tree and wait quietly."
Romantina seemed very experienced.
Just like that, an hour later, there was finally movement in the nearby bushes.
The branches and leaves swayed, making a rustling sound!
Ten mooing spring cows pushed aside the branches, came to the edge of the pond, and began to drink water.
However, the ten Mooing Spring Oxen did not drink water together. Three of them stood at the back, looking around; three were standing behind the first four Mooing Spring Oxen that were drinking water. And the remaining four, after drinking the water, led by the tallest Mooing Spring Oxen, walked to the back, replacing the three that had originally stood at the back, looking around.
Unlike ordinary cows that have two horns, the Moo Spring Cow also has two horns, but those two horns are connected in front of the forehead, like a crescent moon.
"These moo spring cows are pretty smart."
Xiao Wu was surprised at Moo Chunniu's behavior and that he would actually queue up.
But Zhou Qing knew that this was not because Moo Spring Ox possessed human intelligence, but was merely an instinct that evolved to ensure the better continuation of the tribe.
The natural world is cruel, and soul beasts, like ordinary animals, will prey on each other. For example, for a social soul beast like the Moo Spring Ox, which is composed of multiple individuals, even for something as small as drinking water, they need to have some of them stay outside to pay attention to any movement around them before they can proceed.
"Which one do you like?"
Romantina's breathing has become rapid. She can't wait to go down and wrestle with those Mooing Spring Bulls. "These ten Mooing Spring Bulls are all over a hundred years old. The largest one is even nearly five hundred years old!"
The number of years of cultivation of the Moo Spring Ox is mainly determined by its horns.
Every hundred years, a green circle-shaped pattern will appear on the horns of the Moo Spring Ox, representing that it has experienced a hundred years of spring.
The leading Mooing Spring Bull had four green circles on its horns, and a fifth one was faintly visible, but not very clear, so the cultivation level of this Mooing Spring Bull was only close to 500 years, but not completely 500 years. "This is it."
Zhou Qing made up his mind. With the Xiantian Neijing Tu technique, refining the soul ring would not be a big problem. Moreover, the Moo Spring Ox was huge in size and must be full of blood, making it perfect.
"you sure?"
Even though Romantina was in a rage last night and wished she could get a five-hundred-year-old soul ring, when Zhou Qing really had to choose a soul beast that was close to five hundred years old, he still looked worried.
"Whether the theory is correct or not, I will naturally have to experiment it myself." Zhou Qing said confidently, pointing one hand to the sky, "Grandpa Jack said that if you don't try, you will never know if you can do it, but I feel that I can do it!"
Tang San tilted his head:
Did old Jack say anything like that?
Romantina was silent for a while, and no longer insisted. She jumped down, holding the Phoenix Staff in her hand, and used the Power Splitting Move on the largest Mooing Spring Ox.
"Oh ha!"
At the moment when the Phoenix Staff hit the mooing spring bull, Romantina let out a loud war cry, her eyes filled with fire.
"Moo-"
I don’t know if the Phoenix Staff had miraculous effects on physical attacks, but after the nearly five hundred year old Mooing Spring Ox was hit, its head shook and the entire cow took three steps back.
When the other Mooing Spring Cows heard the noise, they stopped drinking the water and quickly ran to the nearby woods, leaving their leader Mooing Spring Cows behind.
Although the Moo Spring Ox is strong, it is not very courageous. At the slightest sign of trouble, it will choose to run away instead of staying to fight with predators.
Only the leader of the Moo Spring Ox would choose to stay and fight with the predator in order to buy time for the tribe to escape.
After one blow.
Romantina also took advantage of the recoil force from the stick and quickly retreated more than ten meters. Her arms, which were holding onto the Phoenix Staff, trembled slightly because of the recoil force.
However, Romantina was trembling all over and her cheeks were flushed.
Not scared, but excited.
The pain from the recoil force stimulated her brain nerves, so that even though her arms were numb, she still felt unprecedented pleasure.
Zhou Qing, Tang San, and Xiao Wu also jumped down from the tree and surrounded the Mooing Spring Ox.
"Possessed by a martial spirit!"
Fine red and blue vascular lines appeared on Zhou Qing's body, his heart beat, his blood vessels dilated, and his blood surged. His martial soul combined with his body's original blood circulation system, and his soul power, qi and blood were stimulated together, making Zhou Qing's body taller. There were faint traces of red mist emerging from his body, and his hair stood up and danced without wind.
"What a mighty look!"
When Romantina saw Zhou Qing's martial spirit possessing her, her eyes lit up. It was also possessed by the martial spirit, and its brain overlapped with her own.
The appearance of the two main martial spirits also made some strange fluctuations between the two more serious.
"It's not an illusion!"
At this moment, Romantina was completely certain that she and Zhou Qing were a perfect match, and that the other party was a handsome boy.
hiss!
God is so good to me!
