Chapter 36 The Five-Thousand-Year-Old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear
"Wang Dong, what's the target age for your third spirit ring? Do you have any preferences regarding the types and attributes of spirit beasts you prefer?" Chen Zifeng asked Wang Dong.
"Four thousand to five thousand years," Wang Dong thought for a moment and replied, "preferably a butterfly-type soul beast with the light attribute, as it has a high compatibility with my martial soul."
"Four or five thousand years?" Ling Luochen frowned slightly upon hearing this. "The limit for the third spirit ring is usually eighteen hundred years. Even if you have outstanding talent, this timeframe is too risky."
"It's alright, Senior Ling." Wang Dong seemed to have anticipated being questioned, so she wasn't flustered. Instead, she showed off her two spirit rings, one yellow and one purple. "When I was little, my family—well, my elders—gave me quite a bit of millennium whale jelly."
As she said this, a look of disgust appeared on her face: "That stuff is sticky and fishy, and eating it is like torture every time. So after I absorbed my first thousand-year soul ring, I swore I would never touch that stuff again in my life."
"I see. No wonder you were so confident in absorbing a spirit ring beyond your level." Ling Luochen's gaze fell on her purple second spirit ring, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes. He nodded slightly.
Hearing this, Lin Feng, who was standing next to him, was secretly amazed.
Millennium whale glue is a rare and highly sought-after tonic; even a small piece is difficult for ordinary soul masters to obtain.
The Haotian Sect's foundation is indeed unfathomable; he'll have to carefully select the treasures next time he visits.
The Soul Hunting Team searched all the way to the mixed zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, where the situation of soul beasts was very complicated.
Fortunately, with Lin Feng's mental detection, they avoided many powerful ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.
"Wait!" A highly imposing figure suddenly entered Lin Feng's mental detection range. The dark golden hair stood on end like steel needles, and a violent aura made people's hearts tremble even from a distance.
"It's a Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear! Judging by its aura—its cultivation is at least four or five thousand years!" Lin Feng exclaimed, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Four or five thousand years?!" Upon hearing this, Chen Zifeng's expression instantly turned serious. He immediately lowered his voice to warn everyone, "Be careful! The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear of this level has a true combat strength far exceeding that of ordinary ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts. It is a hegemon-level existence in the mixed zone, comparable to human soul kings, or even strong individuals who have just entered the soul emperor level."
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear is the ultimate killing machine among soul beasts, combining offense and defense. It is inherently ferocious and warlike, and is known as the "Forest War Maniac" and also has the fearsome reputation of "Earth Ripper".
The sixth-ranked of the ten ferocious beasts, Xiong Jun, who possesses a terrifying cultivation of 470,000 years, is actually this Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.
"I studied this kind of soul beast in detail in a research notebook in the Sea God Pavilion's library—" Chen Zifeng recounted the important contents of the notebook.
"A soul bone that can grow? It's definitely worth the risk. I'm confident that I can use Lin Feng's ice flames to control it on a mental level for a while," Ling Luochen said, frowning.
"Its defenses are extremely strong, so Xixi and I can only focus our attacks on its weak points, such as its eyes," Chen Zifeng added.
"We can fight." Lin Feng's eyes flashed with fighting spirit as he quickly analyzed, "If we can take it down, its spirit ring is of extremely high quality, which is perfect for Wang Dong."
"Then let's vote by raising hands," Chen Zifeng decided immediately.
The five members of the Soul Hunter Squad raised their hands in unison.
"Unanimously approved. Action!"
The Soul Hunter team silently approached the location of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
With a thought, Lin Feng unleashed a burst of pure white Xuanbing spiritual flames from his palm.
Ling Luochen, standing beside him, glanced at Lin Feng and naturally took his hand with her left.
She wasn't afraid; rather, she was taking control of the Xuanbing Spirit Flame, and the pulsating flame instantly merged into her grasp.
She made a grasping motion with her right hand, and an ice crystal staff materialized out of thin air, its chill intensifying suddenly.
"roar--!!"
The chilling aura instantly enraged the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.
It let out a terrifying roar that shattered the jungle, its massive body stood upright, its dark golden pupils locked onto the two of them, and charged forward.
Before he even arrived, the killing intent was already there!
Three dark golden claw shadows, each three meters long, tore through the air, cleaving through layers of ancient trees and vines, and descended with terrifying sharpness that could tear the earth apart.
Ling Luochen's eyes were icy cold, and the ice staff in his hand shone brightly. His third and fifth spirit rings lit up in succession, and a massive amount of spirit power surged forth as he shouted, "Ice Prison! Ring of Ice Radiance!"
Five muffled thuds shook the ground in succession, and five giant ice cages, as thick as city walls, crashed down from above the treetops, precisely blocking the path of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's frenzied charge.
Layer upon layer, instantly building a barrier of despair that exudes absolute chill.
However, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's fearsome reputation is well-deserved.
"Sizzle—!!"
A piercing tearing sound rang out as the indestructible dark gold claw swung through, easily ripping open the five layers of ice cage as if a hot knife were cutting through butter.
Absolute power and ultimate sharpness are displayed to the fullest extent.
Just as the claws were about to tear the two apart, Lin Feng made a move.
His figure flickered like a ghost, his left hand naturally encircling Ling Luochen's slender yet supple waist, and he gracefully spun her to the side and back.
A life-or-death moment!
A terrifying, dark golden claw-like wind grazed the hem of their clothes and cleaved an ancient tree in half behind them.
Ling Luochen felt a tightening around his waist, and a gentle yet irresistible force came through him, causing the scenery before his eyes to spin rapidly.
She had been taken away from where she stood and was pressed against a firm chest.
This sudden close contact caused a faint blush to creep up the ears of the usually aloof and reserved Ling Luochen.
The two had achieved their tactical objective. Ling Luochen skillfully manipulated the Xuanbing Spirit Flame, following the bear's claws that had shattered the ice layer, and quickly covered half of its body.
Extreme cold erupts in the next moment!
"roar--!"
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear let out a roar mixed with pain and anger, and its movements visibly became stiff and slow.
This freeze cannot last, but it is enough to create a fleeting, perfect opportunity.
"Now!"
Chen Zifeng and Xixi, this long-time duo, have an unparalleled chemistry.
Chen Zifeng's blood-red Soul-Chasing Sword drew attention with several sword beams, and then a blood line condensed to its extreme pierced straight into the left eye of the Dark Gold Terror Claw Bear.
Xixi appeared from another tricky and unbelievable angle, her short blade crackling with electricity, and stabbed precisely at the other bear eye.
"Pfft! Pfft!"
Two soft sounds rang out almost simultaneously.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear's massive body shuddered violently, letting out a deafening scream; its eyes were now a bloody mess.
"A great opportunity!"
A fierce glint flashed in Chen Zifeng's eyes, and the Soul-Chasing Sword shone brightly with blood-red light, intending to pierce the beast's head directly.
However, the ferocity and fighting instincts of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear far exceed expectations.
Despite being blind, it relied on its sense of killing intent and its wild instincts to strike Chen Zifeng, who was standing right next to it, with its right paw.
If this claw strikes, even a Soul Emperor would be reduced to a pulp.
"Be careful!"
Amidst cries of alarm, Xixi's figure once again transformed into lightning, slamming into Chen Zifeng at the last second.
The dark gold claws swept past with a stench, tearing off Chen Zifeng's clothes and a piece of flesh from his shoulder, instantly staining half of his body red with blood.
If Xixi hadn't reacted so quickly, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
"Roar! Ro ...
Completely enraged, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear swung its arms wildly, unleashing terrifying dark gold claw beams that swept indiscriminately around it, easily tearing apart ancient trees and rocks.
The Xuanbing Spirit Flame attached to it was actually shattered by the violent blood and soul power surging within its body.
"I'll handle this! Everyone, step back!" Lin Feng shouted.
