72: Breath of Earth
After returning to the hotel!
Chen Fei immediately summoned Chi Yu and extracted 100,000 slaughter value.
[Soul Prison Seal Fusion Soul suppressing effect...]
[Soul Suppressing Cage:
Can pull the enemy's Soul into a pitch-black cage.
Furthermore, a giant Soul mountain will appear within the cage, suppressing the enemy's Soul.
In mild cases, it can cause their three Souls to become unstable!
In severe cases, it can cause their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!
Proficiency: Mastery Level
Note: Current proficiency can imprison for 1 second.
Soul suppressing effect is effective against Third-level Beast Rank 9 and below Yao Beasts.]
The new skill after fusing the soul suppressing iron not only has control attributes but also attack attributes.
Its attack power is not even weaker than Soul Cutting.
Such an awesome skill must be upgraded to the Peak level no matter what.
Extracting another 100,000 slaughter value, Chen Fei found that his slaughter value balance was only around 200,000, which was still too low.
At the Peak level, the control time of Soul Suppressing Cage increased to 2 seconds, and its attack power directly threatened Fourth-level Rank 1 beings.
Once Chi Yu's strength increases, she will be able to target even stronger beings.
Right, there is also the star tree statue.
Being pestered by Shen Lin like that, Chen Fei almost forgot the most important thing.
Being cautious, he still took the statue into the Sacred Codex Space.
“Little Gu, condense a crystal blade and slowly cut it open. Be gentle, don't damage the things inside.”
Little Gu first cut a thin layer but didn't find anything special.
Then he continued cutting!
After shaving it down for a long time, he found something only the size of a small marble inside, covered in mysterious patterns.
It looked very much like the fossil that had sealed Chi Yu.
Could it be another sealed object?
Using the sacred codex to identify it:
[Xirang (Sealed State)
Quality: Level 6
A type of spiritual soil between heaven and earth; as long as it absorbs enough Spiritual Qi, it can grow infinitely.
Spiritual plants planted on Xirang can have their growth accelerated.
When Xirang expands to a certain extent, it will feed back Spiritual Qi, increasing the density of Spiritual Qi.
Note: Requires 100,000 slaughter value to break the Seal.]
It's actually a Level 6 item!
A rare sight indeed!
A spiritual soil that can grow infinitely by absorbing Spiritual Qi is quite interesting.
But it doesn't seem to have much use, does it?
Except for Earth-type Yao Beasts, other Yao Beasts can't fuse with it either.
Rubbing his chin, Chen Fei fell into deep thought.
Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to the Third Generation Gu Worms in the Sacred Codex Space and the Third-level Beasts captured from the Baiyue Mountain Range.
Chen Fei would only use slaughter value on himself and the Three Beasts.
So what should he do with these guys? If he let them improve on their own, who knows how long it would take.
If he increased the Spiritual Qi density of the Sacred Codex Space, could he accelerate their growth?
Having made up his mind, Chen Fei planned to do an experiment first.
He first broke the Seal, then cordoned off a 1 cubic kilometer area in the Sacred Codex Space, put the Xirang in a basin, and placed it right in the center.
Next, he went to buy dozens of pots of yuan ling grass and placed them around it.
yuan ling grass has only one function: it can continuously breathe out Spiritual Qi. Although the rate isn't high, the price is cheap.
He also bought some Spirit-Exhaling Dragon Carp and cultivation tanks.
Their function is similar to yuan ling grass.
Then he sprinkled the wood shavings from the star tree around.
This way, he could gather the Spiritual Qi exhaled by the yuan ling grass and the Spirit-Exhaling Dragon Carp.
Everything was prepared; as for the results, that would take time to verify.
This night's efforts were simply too profitable!
Tired from the work, Chen Fei held the Three Beasts and drifted into dreamland.
Little did he know that the matter of a young man commanding dozens of Third-level Beasts was already starting to ferment in the outside world... The next day!
Everyone gathered in the meeting room.
“Have you heard? Lingchuan Academy's first-year top student, Shen Lin, was defeated by an unknown young man, and it was even a challenge across ranks...”
Tang Jian spoke vividly, as if he had been there in person.
Su Can interjected, “One person controlling dozens of Third-level Beasts... why does this method seem a bit familiar?”
Hearing this, Tang Jian also paused.
It wasn't just familiar; it was an indelible memory.
Everyone followed Tang Jian's gaze toward Chen Fei, only to find that the guy was dozing off.
He couldn't help it; he had worked too late yesterday and had no energy.
Tang Jian narrowed his eyes. “It shouldn't be him, right!
He only recently broke through to become a High-level Beastmaster; does he have the ability to capture Third-level Beasts?
And it's said that person's S-rank Black Obsidian Giant Rhinoceros was just a subordinate.
Do you think a guy like Chen Fei would be willing to let a Black Obsidian Giant Rhinoceros be a subordinate?”
Su Can also nodded. “Put that way, it probably isn't Chen Fei.
S-rank Yao Beasts are still quite rare in Tianqing City; no one would be willing to waste one like that.”
Even with the resource support of Su Shanhai, he only had two S-rank beasts.
For others, it was even harder!
Just as they were about to say more, Chief Instructor walked in with a stack of documents. His dark circles were heavy, clearly from staying up all night.
“Hand these out!”
“Now we will start discussing the drawing results.”
“There are 162 cities in total, but there are 320 academies actually participating.
Take the Imperial City, for example; it has 3 schools participating.
Unfortunately, in the 10th competition zone where we are located, we've run into Lingchuan Academy...”
