Chapter 30

Not finding a suitable fourth soul ring in the Soul Hunting Forest wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

In fact, Lin Feng was a little impatient just now. It wasn't a problem for his fourth soul ring to absorb a ten thousand year soul ring, but he actually thought that a five thousand year soul ring would suffice.

This idea was too scary. It was simply the idea of a prodigal. What was the difference between a five thousand year soul ring and a ten thousand year soul ring? How much experience would he need to make up for it?

Why didn't he have any idea?

Thinking about it carefully, it was mainly because Lin Feng had advanced too quickly. The feeling of his strength exploding made him addicted, and he wanted to increase his rank quickly.

However, it wasn't too late to wake up now. Going to the forest with many soul beasts for his fourth soul ring was the right way to go.

With his current Soul King and Soul Emperor level strength, he should be able to kill a ten thousand year soul beast!

Just as he was thinking about this, Xiao Ying in front of him suddenly moved. Immediately after, a dense black light enveloped him.

After a few seconds, Xiao Ying with a new skin appeared.

More accurately speaking, perhaps because of Lin Feng's life energy, Xiao Ying evolved from a Shadow Leopard to a Wind Shadow Leopard!

Although it was only a difference of one word, the difference in strength was huge.

A soul beast's strength was affected not only by its age, but also by its bloodline.

If he were to forcefully describe it, it would be a little abstract. Lin Feng divided the bloodlines here. A soul beast's bloodline could be roughly divided into four levels: ordinary, elite, Savage Beast, and ancient Savage Beast.

Generally speaking, when soul beasts advanced in age, for example, 99 years to 100 years, 999 years to 1000 years, etc.

A soul beast's bloodline would most likely not change, even when it advanced to a hundred thousand year soul beast.

Just like Xiao Wu, a hundred thousand year Soft Bone Rabbit, it was still a soul beast with an ordinary bloodline.

Unless you had a fortuitous encounter, it would cause your bloodline to evolve.

It was obvious that Lin Feng was Xiao Ying's fortuitous encounter. When it advanced, he injected a large amount of life energy into it, causing its bloodline to change from an ordinary Shadow Leopard to an elite Wind Shadow Leopard.

The Wind Shadow Leopard was similar to the Steel Armored Bear in that it was able to unleash greater strength than normal soul beasts.

Right now, Xiao Ying was able to blend into the darkness of the night. Without a detection-type soul skill or sharp senses, no one would be able to detect him.

In addition, it also had the ability to control the wind. It could use wind blades to attack enemies, run fast enough, and even glide in the air for a short period of time.

To put it simply, Lin Feng's mount had leveled up.

Unfortunately, it was best not to bring Xiao Ying out of the Soul Hunting Forest.

It was safe here. If it went out, whether it was in Notting City or in the forest, it would be a dangerous decision.

Therefore, at this moment, Lin Feng could only say, "Xiao Ying, I really want to take you out, but it's very dangerous outside. Stay in the forest, I'll come back to see you soon!"

"It's best if you stay in the middle section. There are far fewer soul cultivators there than in the outer section, and the soulbeasts there aren't that strong either. You won't be in any danger if you hide there."

After becoming a thousand year soul beast, Xiao Ying had become smarter. It could even understand sentences.

It was also very clear that the reason why it could become so intelligent was all thanks to Lin Feng.

Even though they had only interacted for a short period of time, Xiao Ying's feelings for Lin Feng were very deep.

When it heard that Lin Feng was about to leave, it immediately lay on the ground and lowered its head to rub against Lin Feng's body. It was very reluctant to part with him.

Lin Feng wasn't that reluctant, because he would be back soon.

Lin Feng definitely wouldn't go to the Martial Soul Hall to register and receive subsidies.

If he wanted to earn money, the fastest way was to snatch … cough cough, it was to bring people to obtain soul rings.

Places like the Star Dou Great Forest and the Setting Sun Forest might be able to earn more money, but they were too far away. It was okay to go there once or twice, but if he went there often, he'd forget about it.

The Soulhunting Forest was just right. Lin Feng could earn money and experience here. At the same time, he could ride Xiao Ying's flashy mount.

It was a good place to kill three birds with one stone!

"I'll be back soon!"

It was almost time. After comforting Xiao Ying a few more times, Lin Feng quickly walked out of the Soulhunting Forest.

On the way out, Lin Feng discovered that the Martial Soul Hall had increased the number of patrols in the Soulhunting Forest, just as he'd expected.

He didn't see a single one when he entered, but he'd already seen three patrols when he left.

However, with Lin Feng's current strength, he was able to move around stealthily. No one could discover him.

It could be said that in the Soulhunting Forest where Soul Ancestors basically wouldn't come, he was the strongest.

While Lin Feng was running out, Tang San and the Grandmaster were already out of the forest. They got on a carriage and headed for Notting City.

On the other side of the city, the city lord Lin Tao, a rank 56 Soul King, was looking at the three Soul Ancestors in front of him with a gloomy face.

The three of them had barged into the city lord's mansion. Not even the soldiers could stop them. Outside, there were two groups of Soul Grandmaster enforcers from the Martial Soul Hall. They didn't give him any face.

"Lin Tao, our Martial Soul Hall received news that your son dared to attack a patrol in the Soulhunting Forest. How bold!"

"Ridiculous!"

Lin Tao said calmly, "My son is only a rank 10 Soul Scholar. Even if he obtained a soul ring, he'd be a rank 11 Soul Master at most. How could he attack a patrol with the strength of a Soul Elder?!"

The relationship between the Martial Soul Hall and the Empire was currently in a very delicate state. On the surface, they appeared to be amiable, but once all pretense of cordiality was exposed, it would become a state of mutual hostility.

Right now, in the city lord's mansion of Cree City, the Martial Soul Hall had already shed all pretense of cordiality.

"But that's what our Martial Soul Hall received. You should come with us first."

Lin Tao sneered, "The Empire didn't give us any notice. I didn't receive any news either!

I'm the city lord of Cree City, a viscount of the Empire!

It's not good for you to just take me away like this. "

"Are you going to defy the orders of the Martial Soul Hall?!" One of the enforcers shouted.

"Hmph!"

Lin Tao snorted, "I am the appointed city lord of Cree City by the Heaven Dou Empire. Does the Martial Soul Hall still have any respect for the empire?!"

With that, Lin Tao exploded with power!

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black, the five best soul rings appeared in an instant!

Seeing this, the three enforcers looked at each other. Then, the leader said, "The Hall Master will come to visit us later. Let's go!"

The reason why they left wasn't because they couldn't beat a Soul King. If the three of them worked together, they were confident that they could win.

The main reason was because Lin Tao's words just now had raised this matter to the level of the Empire. The Martial Soul Hall couldn't be so arrogant right now.

After the three of them left, Lin Tao stared in silence for a long time. Then, as if he'd thought of something, he suddenly went out and wrote an urgent letter to Heaven Dou City.
