Chapter 276: #276 - The Birth of the Balrog

A soul ring of over 40,000 years would typically only be obtainable as the seventh or eighth soul ring for an ordinary soul master.

The attack power of the soul skill is within the expected range.

"The Fire Shadow martial soul is not just about the fire element being worth exploring; the shadow itself is also an important characteristic of the martial soul.

Little Wu, it seems that the soul beasts we hunt in the future should also be sought in this direction."

Quan Yi said, filled with joy.

Huo Wu was also grateful for Quan Yi's persistence. If not for Quan Yi's insistence, she would have truly missed out on this undead soul beast.

"Yes, I'll listen to you."

Huo Wu obediently embraced Quan Yi's arm, pressing close to his side.

Quan Yi felt the gentle touch, and his heart couldn't help but flutter.

Familiar with Huo Wu, Quan Yi immediately noticed the abnormality from the sensation.

Huo Wu's body was much fuller than before the breakthrough. Huo Wu's figure was already curvy, but now, Huo Wu had an even richer mature feminine charm.

Through skin contact, Quan Yi could even feel the surging flow of qi and blood beneath her skin.

The strong aura of qi and blood stimulated Quan Yi's most primal desires. At this moment, Huo Wu was extremely alluring to Quan Yi.

But Quan Yi quickly suppressed this feeling and began to divert his attention to other things.

He said to Huo Wu, "Now that we know the effects of the soul skill, let's test the soul power level first.

This time, you absorbed a 40,000-year soul ring, and also opened a hidden meridian. The soul power level after the breakthrough must be quite high."

As he spoke, Quan Yi took out a level testing crystal from the Heart of the Sun.

Huo Wu smiled, a confident look flashing in her eyes.

Although she hadn't undergone precise measurement, based on Huo Wu's own feeling, she could be sure that her soul power level was not low.

She placed her palm on the crystal.

As Huo Wu's soul power poured into it, the crystal began to emit a dazzling light after a moment.

Quan Yi looked at the crystal's data and exclaimed, "Level 55, and almost level 56!

Little Wu, you've directly increased five levels! With your cultivation speed, it won't be long before you break through level 60."

Huo Wu was vaguely guessing when she saw the level fixed at 55, but she was still very happy.

Huo Wu smiled sweetly and said, "How is it? Didn't embarrass you, right?

Back then, you relied on the 50,000-year Fire Spirit Sacred Beast's soul ring to break through to level 55 in one fell swoop. Today, I also relied on opening the hidden meridian and the 40,000-year soul ring to break through to level 55.

It's a pity that this time, it doesn't seem like a soul bone dropped. It's a waste of my painstaking planning to hunt the soul beast alone."

Moreover, don't forget that your physical fitness will be even stronger after absorbing this soul ring. If you continue to train, you can start obtaining 100,000-year soul rings from the seventh soul ring like me.

A 100,000-year soul beast is bound to produce a soul bone. Wouldn't it be better to leave the empty slot for a 100,000-year soul bone?"

Huo Wu heard that Quan Yi's words didn't sound like a lie. He really intended to do so.

A 100,000-year soul beast has strength that exceeds that of an ordinary Titled Douluo.

However, Huo Wu trusted Quan Yi 100% when these words came from his mouth.

"I believe you."

The disappointment of not dropping a soul bone was replaced by fighting spirit.

When Huo Wu thought of the bloody scene of the two of them working together to fight against a 100,000-year soul beast in the near future, she couldn't help but feel excited.

Quan Yi had great ambition, especially now that he possessed great strength, and everything he thought of had the possibility of being realized.

His long-term planning was for this day.

Moreover, this day was not far away.

He himself was only a few years away from breaking through to level 70.

Over the years, Quan Yi had been working hard to conceive and plan how to capture and kill a 100,000-year soul beast.

Now, a large framework was faintly drawn in his mind.

As long as he was given some more time, he would definitely have a greater grasp of the situation.

Quan Yi hid his determination in his heart.

Having completed the biggest goal of this trip, Quan Yi felt a desire to return.

He first recovered the bones of the Flame Lord.

This was the bone of a 100,000-year soul beast, and its hardness was even stronger than that of the Crimson Scaled Evil Dragon.

Quan Yi couldn't possibly miss such a good material.

Quan Yi tried to pick up the chest bone fragments that had fallen on the ground. These were small fragments that had been shattered by Huo Wu's strong blow.

However, although they were small, they were still relative to the Flame Lord's own size. When Quan Yi picked them up, he needed to hug them with both arms to lift them.

As soon as he picked it up, Quan Yi felt the extraordinary density of the bone.

The small volume weighed several thousand kilograms. If this weight was placed in front of Huo Wu before the breakthrough, she might not be able to pick it up at once.

At the same time, the remaining power and scorching aura of the Flame Lord contained in this bone were enough to deceive experienced soul masters and make them truly mistake it for a 100,000-year soul beast.

Quan Yi really couldn't figure out how this complete skeleton was preserved.

In fact, it's no wonder Quan Yi was puzzled. The birth of this undead Flame Lord was a special individual that was born by chance by gathering many elements.

Quan Yi and Huo Wu had always believed that this undead occupied the corpse after the Flame Lord died.

But in fact, it was actually the Flame Lord himself who, by chance, learned the way to transform into an undead, and under the threat of death, transformed himself into an undead.

In this process, the Flame Lord abandoned his body, cultivation, and even his dignity, and transformed himself into a 'Fire Demon', becoming an undead that would forever wander on the mainland.

Self-degradation refers to this situation.

However, compared to facing the inevitable tribulation of thunder, it chose the extremely tempting path of the undead.

However, during its transformation process, an accident occurred.

The aura of the undead seemed to accelerate the triggering of the thunder tribulation, causing it to injure its soul, body, soul bone, flesh and blood, and cultivation during the transformation into an undead, which were consumed by the thunder tribulation.

In the end, although it successfully transformed into an undead, it became an undead with only ten thousand years of cultivation.

Moreover, due to the loss of its original memory and sanity, this newly born undead was no longer the original Flame Lord.

However, this newly born undead creature unexpectedly inherited the undead and Flame Lord's innate abilities, which allowed it to cultivate to a 40,000-year soul beast in a very short period of time.

Although undead creatures are not favored by the world, their eternal lifespan and bizarre methods make them terrifying existences.

However, the stronger this kind of creature is, the greater the targeting it receives. Not to mention other things, the thunder tribulation it will encounter after breaking through 100,000 years will be dozens of times more terrifying than other soul beasts of the same level.

Therefore, the remaining undead on the mainland are all weak. The strong ones have not resisted the cleansing of the world's will.
