72: Jinbao Evolution, Opportunity

With Su Ye's current strength, hunting these thousand-year Soul Beasts was simply child's play.

After absorbing a three-thousand-year Sword Tiger Soul Ring, Zhu Zhuqing then absorbed an eight-thousand-year Ghost Hidden Civet Cat Soul Ring.

Absorbing a Soul Ring beyond her level directly brought her cultivation to level forty-two.

Compared to Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong's Martial Soul, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, required Soul Rings with higher demands; they couldn't be of evil or dark attributes, and gem-type Soul Rings were best.

However, they successfully waited for a Soul Beast that met the requirements: a two-thousand-year Three-Colored Golden Crystal Crocodile.

Ning Rongrong's third Soul Skill was chosen to increase attack power.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul's Soul Skill choices mainly depend on my and my partners' needs."

"Before, when I was alone, I had no choice but to choose Soul Skills that increased my own strength and speed."

"Zhuqing is a sensitive attacker, so increasing attack power means the overall strength increase when we are together is the greatest."

Su Ye couldn't refute these words.

Just like cultivating Eight Extremities Fist in the real World, this is the inheritance of Soul Masters in the Douluo Continent.

It's not even certain if ordinary people who transmigrate to this World will have a Martial Soul.

What is certain is that their innate Soul Power will be extremely low, making it incredibly difficult to cultivate and become stronger.

Families with Martial Soul inheritance are completely different; not only are they born with powerful Martial Souls (except for mutations), but even their Soul Skills are fixed.

These are basically the most suitable Soul Skill configurations for Soul Masters, or rather, the best choices for Soul Master disciples when hunting Soul Beasts.

Su Ye couldn't help but think of a saying—

Why can't three generations of business compare to your ten years of hard study?

Families built over years and years are like layers of steps, already far ahead.

If he hadn't merged with the system, even if Su Ye used all his strength, it would be impossible to reach even a little.

Martial Souls... Soul Beasts... Soul Skills... medicinal herbs...

This World is vast, far beyond what a single original work can fully describe, let alone an original work that starts with the protagonist's halo and highlights the protagonist's charm.

Su Ye had to admit that some of his previous thoughts were too simple.

After resting for a few days, allowing the medicinal power of the Immortal Herbs to completely merge with his body...

Su Ye's cultivation was originally at level thirty-seven, but now, under the effects of Immortal Herbs like the Mixed Essence Immortal Grass and the Star Luo Spirit Orb, his cultivation was already approaching level fifty.

"After absorbing the Mixed Essence Immortal Grass, the Yin-Yang Limitless Skill can now operate on its own."

"Although my cultivation is higher and my cultivation speed has decreased, an increase of nearly ten levels per year is still something others can only dream of."

"Increasing Soul Power cultivation is not my main concern at the moment."

Standing beside the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, Su Ye's resolute gaze reflected two beams of red and white light.

For him, the only thing that needed to be improved was combat power.

Combat power includes two parts.

First, as an extension of a Soul Master, the Heavenly Dipper Divine Fist can unleash powerful combat capabilities, and good Soul Bones can also greatly increase a Soul Master's strength.

Second, there is the main body of the Martial Soul; Martial Soul evolution can increase combat power.

And evolution focuses on absorbing Soul Rings and improving the potential of the Martial Soul.

"The burial ground of the Ice Fire Dragon King; if there are Soul Bones inside, that would naturally be best."

"If not, the corpses of the two Dragon Kings are also extraordinary; if they can be integrated into the Golden Phoenix..."

Thinking of this, the excited Su Ye couldn't help but frown, because he remembered that there was a Dragon Soul guarding the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

A half-step Divine King level Dragon King, even if dead, it is impossible for its consciousness to completely disappear.

Su Ye couldn't guarantee at this moment that the Ice Fire Dragon King inside was completely harmless; if it suddenly attacked him, he would be completely unable to resist with his current strength.

Su Ye's worries were not unfounded, but then he thought...

Would he... cause the Dragon Soul to revive?

Su Ye felt that this possibility was extremely low; a damaged Dragon Soul would weaken each time it appeared. As long as the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well was not destroyed, such a terrible situation would likely not occur.

Taking a deep breath, Su Ye's eyes became resolute.

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cub?"

"No matter what, I have to go down and take a look this time!"

He had made up his mind, but Su Ye didn't go down immediately; it would be too dangerous without sufficient preparation.

Roar—

A few days later, with a low roar echoing.

The fire attribute energy in the vast valley roared in response, and looking out, a fiery red light in a corner of the valley was particularly eye-catching.

From the flames, a golden young beast ran out, circling Su Ye and yelping, as if showing off something.

The two Golden Phoenixes were different from before; their fur, originally interwoven with gold and red, now had red fur forming patterns of fiery clouds on their bodies, giving them the full appearance of a rare and exotic beast.

The power of the flames around its body was more solidified, and that fiery power exuded a calm sense of explosiveness, allowing one to feel that heart-palpitating power.

Zhu Zhuqing said with a faint smile, "Golden Phoenix ate an Immortal Herb and seems to have gained a lot of benefits."

Ning Rongrong pouted with some envy, "Isn't that right? That's an Immortal Herb, something even Title Douluo would fight fiercely for, and it got it for nothing."

Although she said that, Ning Rongrong genuinely liked the clever and intelligent Golden Phoenix. Her eyes were sparkling, narrowed into cute crescent moons.

Su Ye gestured with his eyes, "Golden Phoenix, try out the effect."

Upon receiving the command, the two Golden Phoenixes immediately leaped high, simultaneously puffing out their cheeks, their small noses beginning to inhale, emitting hot waves of white smoke.

Boom!

It opened its small mouth, and a terrifying flame suddenly erupted from its mouth. In an instant, the flame became a huge fireball, merging into one.

Amidst the violent roar, the crystal ore on the ground exploded, and the rocks began to melt into lava.

A semi-circular pit with a diameter of nearly ten meters appeared before their eyes, filled with fiery red lava, showing the immense power of the flames.

The atmosphere suddenly became solidified.

Ning Rongrong, who was originally preparing to stroke Golden Phoenix's head, subtly pulled her hand back.

Sinister!

Simply too sinister!

Looking at Su Ye and Golden Phoenix, this master and pet, Ning Rongrong felt a chill down her spine. As expected, a master is like their pet.

A three-ring Soul Venerable, with a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring disguised as a hundred-year Soul Ring, whose strength dares to directly confront a Title Douluo...

A pet that looks like a small milk dog, soft, cute, and harmless, but the Soul Skill it releases is also so terrifying...

If someone who doesn't know better offends them, they will definitely be tricked to death!

Is a contrast in strength becoming popular in the Soul Master World now?

"This... Su Ye, Golden Phoenix is so strong?"

Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes subtly glanced at her side. Because Golden Phoenix was too adorable and cute, they had only treated it like a pet.

She only knew that the little guy was a bit peculiar, never imagining that Golden Phoenix's strength was so terrifying.

Just that attack just now, she, who had become a Soul Grandmaster, was completely no match for it; she estimated that at least a Soul King would be needed.

Su Ye smiled helplessly, "Golden Phoenix has always had considerable strength, but it's too timid and hardly uses its strength."

"As for the Rooster Crown Phoenix Sunflower it ate, it is originally an Immortal Herb of extreme rigidity and yang, and its attributes are also extremely compatible."

Looking at the extraordinary Golden Phoenix, Su Ye's heart couldn't help but fill with joy.

The opportunity... has finally arrived!
