Chapter 34 I told you there would be a King-level Soul Beast.
Chapter 34 I told you there would be a King-level Soul Beast.
"You wouldn't believe it, big brother, but my first soul skill can not only be used for defense, but it's also quite effective at trapping people."
Tang San crossed his arms and looked smugly at the bushes generated by his soul skill.
But the person inside didn't make a sound. Sensing something was wrong, Tang San looked down at Agumon.
Agumon's eyes were somewhat fierce, as if signaling him to quickly get away.
Remembering the fear of being dominated by flames, Tang San quickly turned and ran, but after running only a meter, a yellow spirit ring lit up on Agumon's body.
In an instant, Agumon's entire body turned crimson, and a breath of dragon fire instantly incinerated all the surrounding Blue Silver Grass.
Smoke filled the air, and a pungent, unpleasant odor permeated the atmosphere.
"Ahem, Agumon, you still need to work on your fire control precision."
Xiao Yan coughed awkwardly as he emerged from the smoke. The flames had burned his clothes to shreds, and as he stepped out, scraps of Notting's school uniform drifted away in the wind.
Only the "Twenty-Four Heavenly Caves" pendant on his waist and the Digimon device remained intact.
If it weren't for his fire resistance and the fact that he had hinted to Agumon to control the flames, he might have been burned to ashes.
Agumon scratched his head awkwardly, gesturing for him to look at the people on the other side.
They thought they were in a terrible situation, but when they saw Tang San's appearance, they both burst into laughter.
It turned out that Tang San was too slow to dodge, and the clothes on his back were burned away, revealing his bare buttocks.
"Big brother, really, if you had just begged for mercy, I would have let you go. Why did you have to use your number one soul skill?" Tang San complained.
"This is a reminder I wanted to give you, Xiao San. When fighting against an enemy, how can you release the healing power of Blue Silver Grass outwards?"
It was precisely because Xiao Yan was enveloped by the Blue Silver Grass that the continuous life force allowed him to recover at a rapid pace, which is why he was able to use his second "Crimson Dragon Breath" today.
"That's because I was afraid you'd get hurt, so I deliberately confiscated it."
"You brat." Xiao Yan laughed and gave him a light elbow.
The sound of rapid hoofbeats came from not far away, and the two children who were playing immediately changed their expressions.
Xiao Yan gestured for Tang San to be quiet, but unfortunately neither of them had any clothes to change into, which was rather awkward.
Tang San took off his upper body and handed it to Xiao Yan. The two of them used the remaining fabric to barely cover their lower bodies.
Agumon then reverted to Koromon and jumped back onto Xiao Yan's head.
"Whoa!"
The leader signaled the troops behind him to stop, then dismounted and looked at the scene before him with a worried expression.
He was fully clad in the Spirit Hall's armor, with only his eyes visible, revealing a hint of hardship in them.
"Could it really be as Yu Xiaogang said, that a cub of a King-level Soul Beast has appeared in the Soul Hunting Forest? He actually stumbled upon such a good thing, but how did it escape to the outer perimeter? Could it have hurt someone?"
The Spirit Hall's enforcement team's job is to patrol the depths of this forest, occasionally going out to the outer perimeter to prevent spirit beasts over ten thousand years old or titled Douluo from approaching this place.
If a King-level Soul Beast really did appear, it would be somewhat unreasonable that their enforcement team wasn't the first to discover it.
If this spirit beast were to injure someone, it would further diminish the Spirit Hall's prestige among the people.
Looking at the area in front of them, which was clearly the site of a major battle, the leading captain found it hard to believe that this was not the work of a soul beast.
"Go and invite Elder Yu over."
"yes!"
The soldiers behind him received the order and fired a tricolor signal flare into the sky. In the relatively small environment of the Soul Hunter Forest, the Spirit Hall's law enforcement team relied on this to maintain communication among themselves deep within the forest.
"Huh?" The enforcement team leader then noticed that there were two short boys hugging each other at the edge of the large pit, both of them trembling, clearly terrified.
However, both children were a bit strange; they were both shirtless, and one had no hair or eyebrows.
The other one had a pink and white pom-pom on his head, but since he had seen Yu Xiaogang's martial spirit before, he wasn't surprised.
"Could these be the two students Yu Xiaogang was talking about?"
The captain strode forward. The two children were clearly terrified and stood frozen in place when they saw the stranger.
He crouched down and put his hands on their shoulders.
"Child, what happened here? Can you tell me?" The captain's tone changed from before, and he was unusually gentle at this moment.
The boy without eyebrows remained shrunken, not daring to speak. Instead, the person with the pom-pom on their head asked, "Uncle, who are you?"
"Oh, right, I forgot to introduce myself. I am the captain of the Soul Hunting Forest Squad of the Spirit Hall Enforcement Team, a level 74 Soul Saint. You can call me Uncle Wang."
"Then isn't that uncle even more ferocious than that monster from before?"
Just now, Captain Wang's mutterings in the distance naturally did not escape the ears of the Rolling Ball Beast, so it quietly told Xiao Yan why the enforcement team was here.
"A monster? What does it look like?" Captain Wang raised an eyebrow.
But the child in front of him seemed to have thought of something, and was too scared to speak.
"Don't be afraid, Uncle is a Soul Saint. No one in this Soul Hunting Forest can touch you." But the other party clearly didn't believe this, so he changed the subject.
"Children, do you know Master Yu Xiaogang?"
"Master? Is Master here? I thought he abandoned us. He said he was bringing us to this forest to get spirit rings, but he ran away first." The eyebrowless child finally spoke, his tone full of grievance.
"Outrageous!" The captain looked at the two children, who were no more than six years old. How could Yu Xiaogang, that respectable guy, have the heart to leave two children in the Soul Hunter Forest?
This guy kept asking about the finder's reward while reporting the situation, clearly wanting to get something for himself. If he hadn't been so long-winded and didn't get to the point, it wouldn't have taken so long. Because of the elder's token in his hand, I could only be polite to him.
"Captain, the master said he's soaking wet and needs to change his clothes before coming over."
"Bring him over here now!" the captain commanded authoritatively.
Then, as if afraid of frightening the two children, he quickly changed to a gentle expression, took out his clothes from his storage ring, and covered the two disheveled children with them.
A short while later, Yu Xiaogang was carried to the captain by two soldiers.
The clothes that were soaked earlier are now dry, but Xiao Yan noticed that the other man's crotch area was a bit dark, and there was also an unpleasant smell coming from Gangzi.
As soon as the two soldiers released their grip, Yu Xiaogang collapsed to the ground. It seemed that the soul power he had expended to resist the oppressive force had not yet recovered.
"Elder Yu, look at these two children, they're from your academy."
Yu Xiaogang was reluctantly carried here, but when he saw the pit that was more than two meters deep, his spirits instantly lifted, and his attention was no longer on anyone else.
"Such a huge pit must have been a lake before. Only a King-level Soul Beast could have evaporated this lake completely."
"I knew it! There are King-level Soul Beasts in the Soul Hunting Forest, yet your enforcement team deliberately made things difficult for me, insisting that I report it clearly."
The law enforcement team's trip was no trivial matter. Yu Xiaogang's words were vague and unsubstantiated, so of course, they needed to ask for more information.
Among the crowd, only Yu Xiaogang was excited. This was a King-level Soul Beast. Even with his cultivation as a Great Soul Master, he was able to survive its pressure, which meant that the beast's age was definitely not high.
Once this is reported to the Spirit Hall, it will become a rare and top-tier spirit ring, at which point Yu Xiaogang will surely have made a great contribution.
The soldiers were sullen because this incident made them appear to have failed in their duties.
As for Xiao Yan, he reached out and touched the "King-level Bloodline Soul Beast" that was dozing off on his head.
