Chapter 160: Ghost Leopard
The perspective returns to Lu Chen.
After Lu Chen left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with Xiao Wu and Zhuqing, it did not take long for them to arrive at the Sunset Forest.
Although the Sunset Forest certainly could not compare to the Star Dou Great Forest in terms of the richness of Spirit Beasts, as the largest Spirit Beast forest within the borders of the Heaven Dou Empire, it was still very easy to find a Spirit Beast suitable for Zhuqing.
Not to mention that Lu Chen also possessed the Blue Silver Domain!
As long as the Blue Silver Domain was activated, any movement within the entire Sunset Forest could not escape Lu Chen’s perception.
In just a moment, Lu Chen found a Spirit Beast suitable to serve as Zhuqing’s third spirit ring.
Subsequently, Lu Chen took Xiao Wu and Zhuqing and rushed to the location of this Spirit Beast at the fastest speed.
"Roar!"
In the forest, there was a black leopard-type Spirit Beast with a body length of two point eight meters and a shoulder height of one point four meters; its muscles were not overly bulky but presented a streamlined form.
This black leopard-type Spirit Beast was named Ghost Leopard, a powerful Spirit Beast that possessed both speed and attack capabilities.
At this moment, the Ghost Leopard also noticed the suddenly arrived Lu Chen and the others; it let out a roar from its mouth, carrying a tone of deterrence and probing.
Facing the Ghost Leopard that was in an attacking stance, Lu Chen moved his mind and directly released his spirit power pressure; the spirit power pressure at the level of a Titled Douluo directly pressed the Ghost Leopard onto the ground.
"Awoo!"
The Ghost Leopard let out a whimper mixed with fear and pain, as if a great mountain were pressing down on its body, and it lay on the ground completely unable to move.
Within its pair of beast eyes, there was no longer a trace of ferocity or bloodthirst; what remained was only a sense of begging and fawning.
Lu Chen pointed at the Ghost Leopard and introduced it:
"Zhuqing, you are an Agility Attack Spirit Master. This Ghost Leopard Spirit Beast possesses both speed and attack capabilities. After absorbing its spirit ring, it will certainly bring you a significant improvement."
"However, this Ghost Leopard Spirit Beast has reached a limit of 2000 years, exceeding the absorption limit of a general Spirit Master’s third spirit ring."
"I chose this Spirit Beast for you also because you have absorbed two Spirit Bones of about 50,000 years. After the tempering of the Spirit Bone energy, absorbing a 2,000-year spirit ring as your third spirit ring will certainly be no problem at all."
"Go ahead, give it a quick end. Under my spirit power pressure, this Ghost Leopard Spirit Beast will not have any ability to resist."
Zhuqing nodded with a determined expression:
"I understand. Carrying two Spirit Bones of about 50,000 years, if I still cannot absorb a 2,000-year spirit ring, then even if I am burst apart by the spirit ring, it would be my own fault."
As her voice fell, Zhuqing summoned her Hell Civet Martial Soul Possession. Her body became more slender; as an Agility Attack Spirit Master, her muscles were not overly bulky. As her five fingers flicked, the nails on both hands extended more than a foot long, like sharp blades.
And beneath Zhuqing’s feet, two yellow spirit rings rose up one by one.
In the next instant, her first spirit ring shone brightly:
"Hell Rush Stab!"
Under the support of Hell Rush Stab, Zhuqing transformed into a black shadow, rapidly flashing towards the Ghost Leopard’s position.
The Ghost Leopard’s pupils constricted; it smelled the scent of death and struggled frantically, attempting to stand up, but Lu Chen’s spirit power pressure was like a great mountain pressing on its shoulders from beginning to end.
It made it completely unable to move. It whimpered from its mouth, the sound sharp and desolate, trying to stir Zhuqing’s sense of pity.
However, Zhuqing’s will was firm and was not influenced at all by the Ghost Leopard’s desolate cries. She raised her right claw, and the moment she approached the Ghost Leopard, with a tearing sound, she ripped open the Ghost Leopard’s throat.
The Ghost Leopard’s sound stopped abruptly; its throat kept spurting blood, and its eyes were full of resentment. Even though it was extremely unwilling in its heart, it gradually lost its breath.
Waves of purple light gushed out from the Ghost Leopard’s corpse, gradually condensing into a purple spirit ring.
Seeing the spirit ring condense, Zhuqing’s face revealed a look of joy. She did not have any hesitation and sat down cross-legged in front of the Ghost Leopard’s corpse.
She began to absorb this 2,000-year Ghost Leopard spirit ring!
As for the safety issue, Zhuqing was not worried at all. With Lu Chen guarding by her side, even if the sky were to fall, Zhuqing believed that Lu Chen could hold up a piece of the sky for her.
And in the distance!
Xiao Wu’s expression was somewhat melancholy, and she looked at Lu Chen with a bit of confusion in her eyes:
"Boss Lu Chen, between human Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts, is it really only possible to slaughter each other? Is there no possibility of peaceful coexistence?"
Hearing this, Lu Chen naturally would not comfort Xiao Wu by saying things like only killing evil Spirit Beasts in the future. His voice was unusually low, bloodily revealing a cruel reality:
"Unless one day in the future, human Spirit Masters can, like your Beast-to-Human Transformation, be able to self-condense spirit rings, otherwise the slaughter between human Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts cannot be completely stopped!"
"However, you don’t need to immerse yourself in this grand narrative of racial opposition. Even if there were no slaughter between human Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts, Spirit Beasts of different species would likewise slaughter each other."
"Friendships like yours, Da Ming, and Er Ming, which span across different Spirit Beast species, are extremely incredible."
"You don’t need to worry about all Spirit Beasts; you only need to protect your own friends and family, and you will already be able to have a clear conscience."
Xiao Wu was just a Soft Bones Rabbit Beast-to-Human Transformation; she was not the co-ruler of Spirit Beasts, so there was no need to worry for all Spirit Beasts.
That true co-ruler of Spirit Beasts, the Silver Dragon King, Gu Yuena, she should be the hope of all Spirit Beasts; Xiao Wu really did not need to take it all upon herself.
Hearing Lu Chen’s words, Xiao Wu thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was indeed the case. In the Star Dou Great Forest, the intensity of the slaughter between different Spirit Beasts far exceeded that of human Spirit Masters hunting Spirit Beasts.
Although her mood was still a bit low, she had already walked out of that grand narrative thinking from just a moment ago.
Xiao Wu walked to Lu Chen’s side, reached out to take his arm, smelled Lu Chen’s scent, felt a sense of peace, and silently thought:
’Boss Lu Chen is right; the slaughter between different species of Spirit Beasts, the slaughter between human Spirit Masters and Spirit Beasts, these all exist.’
’Back when I was still a Spirit Beast, I was not infrequently hunted by the Human-Faced Demon Spider Emperor, the Earth Hole Demon Spider Emperor... in the Star Dou Great Forest. I have no need to worry about them.’
’I only need to protect Da Ming and Er Ming. When Boss Lu Chen’s Second Martial Soul attaches nine spirit rings, and he snatches back my mother’s spirit ring and Spirit Bone from that detestable woman Bibi Dong, as long as my mother can be resurrected, I will already be very satisfied.’
Subsequently, Lu Chen and Xiao Wu quietly waited for Zhuqing to absorb the spirit ring.
Zhuqing’s physical fitness, after the tempering of the energy of two 50,000-year Spirit Bones, had undergone a complete transformation.
Absorbing this 2,000-year spirit ring only made her frown slightly, feeling a sensation of swelling in her body.
Besides this, this 2,000-year spirit ring did not bring her any life-threatening danger.
After about five hours of absorption!
Zhuqing successfully absorbed the spirit ring. After she opened her eyes and woke up, feeling the surging, massive spirit power within her body, she couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.
It was Lu Chen who took the initiative to ask:
"Zhuqing, how do you feel? What level has your spirit power reached? What kind of Spirit Ability did you obtain?"
Zhuqing stood up from the ground, looked at the location of Lu Chen and Xiao Wu, with a look of excitement on her face, sharing her joy:
"I feel very good; my spirit power has reached level 38. This is all thanks to those two 50,000-year Spirit Bones."
"As for my third Spirit Ability, its name is Hell Decapitation. It condenses more than one-third of the spirit power in my body to release a crescent-shaped slash, with power comparable to the fourth Spirit Ability of a Spirit Ancestor."
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows slightly!
It seems that like Xiao Wu, after Zhuqing absorbed two Spirit Bones of about 50,000 years, her spirit power increased by nearly ten levels.
If she were to absorb any Immortal Herb, she could immediately Breakthrough to level 40 spirit power, and after absorbing a fourth spirit ring, her spirit power could at least reach level 45 or above.
Lu Chen smiled slightly and said:
"Zhuqing, congratulations. Next, I will take you to a place. After arriving there, your strength will be able to improve once again."
