Chapter 553 Encountering Three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts (Subscribe) _1

After walking for a while, Qian Yu and others still hadn't seen a single centennial soul beast, but they barely managed to see some that were a millennium old!

Obviously, with the talents and physical qualities of these outer courtyard freshmen, they were not yet able to absorb a thousand-year soul ring, otherwise, they would have exploded and died!

Xu Sanshi couldn't help but complain, "How come we haven't even seen a centennial soul beast along the way? Could it be that we have to go to the core area?"

Tang Ya pondered, "It must be because of the toxic barrier, perhaps they have all fled to the depths of Sunset Forest or even to the core area."

Bei Bei spoke solemnly, "Even the plants here have been corroded to this state, it's normal that the soul beasts would be affected as well and not be seen in the periphery!"

All of a sudden, Jiang Nannan pointed at a black-bodied leopard with purple spots on its skin in front of them and whispered, "Look quick, everyone, isn't that a centennial soul beast over there?"

Everyone turned their gaze toward the leopard...

Tang Ya clenched her fists, "Alright, let's do it! It's not easy to find a centennial soul beast."

Yan Shaozhe thoughtfully said, "The soul skill provided by the Purple Spotted Leopard is very suitable for agile-attack class Soul Masters! Indeed, it's a good choice."

At that moment, Huo Yuhao's eyes emitted a faint blue glow, and he sized up the length of the leopard's tail...

He said aloud, "No, it's not a centennial soul beast, its tail is about one point five meters long, it must be a millennial Purple Spotted Leopard!"

Xu Sanshi said disinterestedly, "Hah? So are you saying we've been happy for nothing? We've been walking for so long and haven't solved the problem of a single outer courtyard freshman's soul ring!"

Qian Yu glanced at him, "Let's move a bit further. Now that we've come here, it's impossible for all the centennial soul beasts to be extinct, right?"

As for the outer courtyard freshmen, each of their faces was glowing with excitement and eagerness because they were about to obtain new soul rings, and their strength was going to enhance!

…

So, the group continued to advance for a while, and along the way, they did encounter a few centennial soul beasts, but none were a good choice for a soul ring...

Yan Shaozhe looked at the scarcely visible toxic barrier in front and reminded, "Everyone, channel more Soul Power to sustain the Defensive Soul Guidance Devices, the density of the toxic barrier here has increased!"

Tang Wutong nodded, "Yes! I just felt that after sustaining it for so long, only less than one-fifth of my Soul Power was consumed, now it has nearly doubled!"

Bei Bei pursed his lips, "We need to quickly hunt down the soul beasts and recover our Soul Power, or else we'll eventually be worn down by the toxic barrier."

While everyone was contemplating, from ahead of them, "Roar!"

A mighty roar that spread throughout the forest resounded...

This formidable presence could even be compared to a weak ferocious beast!

This sudden roar directly made the freshmen hide behind the people from Tang Sect, shaking as they spoke, "So... so terrifying! Is this the power emitted by a ten-thousand-year soul beast?"

"I feel like my heart is beating faster!"

"We... we just wanted to hunt centennial soul beasts, why is it... so... terrifying!"

Xu Sanshi said gravely, "What was that roar just now? Could it be that someone ahead is also hunting soul beasts?"

Jiang Nannan said, "That shouldn't be the case, just from the soul power fluctuation that beast emitted just now, we can tell it's very strong!"

Yan Shaozhe's eyes hardened, and he decisively said, "We don't need to worry about it, let's continue moving forward! It's better to have fewer problems."

The quality of the ordinary soul beasts in Sunset Forest is not inferior to those in the core area of Aquipeia Forest, the only difference might be the ferocious beasts!

But it's better to avoid them if we can!

Hearing Yan Shaozhe's words, the others nodded in agreement, as they had no interest in courting trouble...

However, even if they didn't go looking for trouble, that didn't mean the soul beasts wouldn't come looking for them!

Suddenly, a series of urgent footfalls sounded, and the whole ground trembled as if some gigantic creature was about to arrive...

Huo Yuhao's first soul ring at his feet lit up quickly...

First Soul Skill, Spirit Sharing!

The eyes of everyone except the outer courtyard freshmen emitted a faint blue glow...

Their gazes pierced through the dense jungle, clearly sighting three massive soul beasts, each several dozen meters in size, charging towards them!

These three soul beasts were the Purple-Gold Python, the Fiery Moonlit Lion, and the Great Strength King Kong Ape!

Yan Shaozhe's pupils constricted sharply as he bellowed, "Retreat, fast!"

He had a premonition that even with his strength as a Hyper Douluo, he would be no match for these three terrifying soul beasts!

He feared that their Cultivation Levels might have reached a hundred thousand years!

Everyone snapped out of their stupor and swiftly turned around, starting to run in hopes of escaping this place...

However, the three soul beasts behind them, as though they had locked onto their position, continued their relentless chase...

Suddenly, the crimson eyes of the Purple-Gold Python glinted with a touch of intelligence as it turned its head and ran off to the side...

Seeing this, the Great Strength King Kong Ape also turned to run in another direction, leaving only the Fiery Moonlit Lion in dogged pursuit of Yan Shaozhe and the others...

After running for a while, Yan Shaozhe realized something was amiss, "Why is there only one soul beast left, where are the other two?"

Huo Yuhao frowned, "Hundred-thousand-year soul beasts already possess intelligence, I'm afraid..."

Xu Sanshi grimaced, "That couldn't be possible, right? How could they know to flank us?"

No sooner had Xu Sanshi spoken than all of their faces suddenly froze...

Behind them, two ferocious, massive creatures had long been lying in wait!...

It was none other than the Purple-Gold Python and the Great Strength King Kong Ape!

The group hurriedly stopped in their tracks, Tang Ya scolded, "Xu Sanshi, you jinx!"

Xu Sanshi responded speechlessly, "How is this my fault? Who knew these creatures had become so cunning!"

Qian Yu sighed, "Stop arguing, let's just get rid of them."

Being chased by three soul beasts not even at Five Hundred Thousand Years Cultivation was incredibly frustrating!

Yan Shaozhe exclaimed in shock, "Get rid of them?! Qian Yu, these are three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!"

Was that some sort of joke? They not only had to resist the poison hazard but were also up against hundred-thousand-year soul beasts!

Wasn't that just asking for death?

Qian Yu shot Yan Shaozhe a glance and retorted, "Do you have any better ideas for escape?"

Yan Shaozhe looked at the three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts eyeing them hungrily and involuntarily twitched the corners of his mouth...

It seemed that was indeed the case...

Qian Yu decisively said, "President Yan, you and I will take care of these three soul beasts; everyone else, make sure to protect the newcomers."

Tang Ya and the others, not overestimating themselves, nodded cautiously, "Hmm!"

These were hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, even an Ordinary Titled Douluo might not live to tell the tale after confronting them! Their presence would only be a burden!

At that moment, Huo Yuhao took a bold step forward, and seven soul rings slowly rose from beneath his feet.

One white, six red!

He then turned his resolute gaze towards Qian Yu, "Qian Yu, leave the other hundred-thousand-year soul beast to me!"

Qian Yu was taken aback, then replied indifferently, "As you wish..."

The next moment, both he and Yan Shaozhe saw nine soul rings rapidly rise under their feet...

The entire atmosphere suddenly became incredibly tense...
