Chapter 864: The Battle Armor Master With A Light Belt
TL: BluVerse
He breathed a sigh of relief. Faced with this powerful soul beast with the cultivation of tens of thousands of years, he was a bit nervous before, but after the fight, he realized that he had really undergone a complete transformation after breaking through to five-ring. His strength and soul power were much stronger than before.
Despite its massive size, the Crimson Tail Scorpion was still inferior to him in terms of strength. Even without the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, he had the confidence to kill it. It would just require more effort on his part.
The moment it was pierced through by the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, the Crimson Tail Scorpion had already lost its life. Its body gradually turned into light particles and then flew towards Lan Xuanyu’s direction.
“Yes, that is the aura of immortal energy.” The Treasure Seeking Beast exclaimed in Lan Xuanyu’s mind.
Lan Xuanyu silently felt it. When these light spots fell on him, they naturally wanted to penetrate into his soul ring.
At this moment, the Treasure Seeking Beast drilled out and waved its hands, causing the light spots to gather towards it.
“Master, your soul ring doesn’t need to be strengthened anymore. What you need to strengthen is your body. Let me guide it into your bloodline and strengthen your physique to prepare for the next breakthrough.”
“Okay.”
Under the guidance of the Treasure Seeking Beast, the light spots surged out from Lan Xuanyu’s chest, and he suddenly felt a warm sensation spreading throughout his body, making him feel relaxed and comfortable. The colored crystal in the vortex in his chest also slightly brightened, and he didn’t know if it had increased in size.
This is good, this is good. Master, you are right. If we can really find the fragment of the Divine Realm, it will be of great help to your recovery. If the Divine Realm fragment is large enough, that would be even better.
The Treasure Seeking Beast also clearly felt the benefits. It needed to absorb the power of Lan Xuanyu’s bloodline to recover, but it couldn’t absorb too much. However, the immortal energy here could also provide effective supplementation for it. It was truly a rare good thing!
Lan Xuanyu smiled and said, “Then let’s continue.” With that, he set off again and rushed deeper into the forest.
With the experience of fighting the Crimson Tail Scorpion just now, his confidence soared. He believed that with his current cultivation level, even if he encountered a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, he would still have the power to fight. And, he still had his powerful weapon with him.
The golden halo shone and the Two-Word Battle Armor Dragon Soul covered his whole body. With his wings spread out, Lan Xuanyu easily flew tens of meters away with a light tap.
Since he had just obtained the Two-Word Battle Armor not long ago, he had forgotten to use it earlier. After the lesson he learned from facing the Crimson Tail Scorpion, he immediately released the Battle Armor.
Instantly, Lan Xuanyu felt his spiritual perception and soul power amplified as if he had experienced a sudden surge in his cultivation level. The appearance of Battle Armor was once a disaster for soul beasts. With the amplification of the Battle Armor, humans had already surpassed soul beasts even without using soul technology.
After soul beasts reached a certain level of strength, they would have their own territory. Therefore, this Advanced Ascension Platform was like the core area of the original Star Dou Forest. However, the number of soul beasts here was not too high. Normally, powerful soul beasts would not easily enter the territory of other soul beasts.
Lan Xuanyu couldn’t distinguish the direction here, so he just kept moving forward. Soon, he encountered several soul beasts that were over ten thousand years old and killed them one by one, absorbing their energy to replenish himself.
With these few absorptions, he could now confirm that this place was definitely a good place for him to cultivate. Although the absorbed energy wouldn’t enhance his soul power, its effect on his body was extremely beneficial. The process of strengthening his body was similar to taking precious materials and treasures, but here he didn’t need to spend any money to buy them from others.
Continuing forward, after he killed eight soul beasts that were over ten thousand years old, he finally felt clearly that the dragon core in the center of his bloodline vortex was actually growing larger. He could already feel that it had increased in size. This made Lan Xuanyu overjoyed.
Since the dragon core was formed, this was the first time he had felt a change in it.
The nurturing of the dragon core was the most important for his breakthrough to the next level in the future. It was far more important than the promotion of soul power.
“I’m not leaving!” he thought. He felt he couldn’t leave until he had killed all the soul beasts. He just didn’t know to what extent the Tang Sect would interfere with the Ascension Platform.
Excitedly thinking to himself, he continued to search for soul beasts. It was strange, however, that since he killed the eighth soul beast, he hadn’t found any other traces of them for almost half an hour.
Everything was good here except for the fact that there were too few soul beasts.
“Hmph!” Just then, a low muffled groan sounded.
Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred, and he instinctively looked in a direction. Suddenly, he saw a figure standing quietly on a tree branch a hundred meters away.
The reason why he saw the other party right away was because there were many light spots surrounding his body, forming a thick light belt that enveloped him like a protective shield.
He was a human, and a human wearing battle armor. His entire body was covered in a set of purple and black battle armor. Not only did the battle armor have wings, but more importantly, there was a circle of purple light with intricate patterns under his feet.
Domain? This was a Three-Word Battle Armor, which came with its own Domain!
But what were those light spots around his body? Although there was a certain distance, Lan Xuanyu could still feel that the light belt around the other party’s body was the energy released by the soul beast after hunting and killing it!
“Master, he probably can’t absorb it. It takes time for soul rings to absorb this kind of energy, but after killing the soul beasts here, this energy is like acknowledging the owner. However, it still needs time to absorb. Our situation is special, so I helped you absorb it into your body, so it won’t accumulate around you.”
After hearing what the Treasure Seeking Beast said, Lan Xuanyu suddenly realized and asked in his mind, “Does that mean if I defeat him, his energy will be mine?”
“Yes, definitely. It seems like he’s also quite interested in you,” the Treasure Seeking Beast chuckled.
“Why is he interested in me? I don’t have any overflowing energy on me. Even if he kills me, he won’t gain anything!” Lan Xuanyu was a bit helpless, but in the next instant, he saw the Three-Word Battle Armor master on the opposite side shooting toward him.
It was really unnecessary, wasn’t it?
Unknown to Lan Xuanyu, the Advanced Ascension Platform was always exclusive, primarily because there were few high-level soul beasts overall. Adding another person meant adding another competitor, and the soul beasts that one could encounter would likely be even scarcer.
If Lan Xuanyu had also been wearing a Three-Word Battle Armor, perhaps the other person would have immediately distanced themselves, creating space between them. But his battle armor clearly lacked a domain, and a Two-Word Battle Armor naturally represented inferior strength. Therefore, the other person did not hesitate to attack him.
This was a virtual world, so killing him would not have any real-world consequences, but it would reduce his gains. The other person would not have any psychological burden in doing so.
As the other person rapidly flew toward him, their strength became apparent. Seven soul rings emerged from beneath their feet, and the level of their soul rings was quite impressive. Two of the seven were purple, and the other five were all black soul rings.
A Three-Word Battle Armor master with seven rings of cultivation!
Such soul masters were not common in Shrek Academy. It’s not that Shrek Academy didn’t have Three-Word Battle Armor masters, but generally speaking, most of Shrek Academy’s soul masters would reach around the eighth ring before acquiring a Three-Word Battle Armor. Some eight-ringed soul masters even still had Two-Word Battle Armor. This was unavoidable since their soul power cultivation progressed too quickly, and it was difficult to keep up with the production of battle armor.
