Chapter 528 – Spoilers
TL : GoldenLung
Right now, they felt that they had to put aside the matter of making their Battle Armor. In any case, Lan Xuanyu had promised them that he would forge the metals for them. With First Grade Thousand Refined rare metals, it wouldn’t be too difficult to make a One-Word Battle Armor. The most urgent thing at the moment was to break through to five-ring as soon as possible! The most important thing was to truly fuse with their Spirit Soul and transform it into their own strength. Even the making of a One-Word Battle Armor could undergo some corresponding changes to strengthen it after that.
Needless to say, they were all thinking of this and had already made plans. They would spend the rest of their time working hard to break through. They would spend the acc.u.mulated emblems at all costs and break through to five-ring first.
Liu Feng and Tang Yuge were also very happy and excited as they communicated with their soul beast.
Lan Mengqin couldn’t take it anymore. She pulled on Lan Xuanyu’s sleeve, pouted, and looked at him pitifully. She whispered, “My Lord, find me one.”
Lan Xuanyu’s heart trembled in disgust at her call and he turned to Dong Qianqiu for help, but she only pursed her lips and didn’t have any intention of helping him.
“If there is not any suitable soul east, I can’t help you either,” Lan Xuanyu whispered.
Lan Mengqin pouted. “I don’t care, you’re the Lord, you can think of a plan. Anyway, get me a suitable one, or I won’t let you off. I’ll call you that every day.”
“You win. Wait for me to communicate with Thorn Dragon and ask him some questions.” Lan Xuanyu was helpless.
Dong Qianqiu didn’t seem to like Spirit Souls and didn’t want to merge any. There was naturally nothing to do. Qian Lei also had a soul beast with great potential like the Gold Behemoth. Liu Feng had the Thorn Dragon, Tang Yuge had the Yin Yang Chaos Bird, and Yuanen Huihui’s situation was unclear, but he had the Elven Queen as his grandmother, so there shouldn’t be any problem with his Spirit Soul. Right now, Lan Mengqin really didn’t have anything, so it was no wonder that she was anxious.
They still had to wait for the others to return. Lan Xuanyu called the Thorn Dragon to his side and pointed at Lan Mengqin. “Take a look, does this friend of mine can have any suitable Spirit Soul ?”
Lan Mengqin had already displayed her Martial Soul when she was looking at the soul beasts previously, but she had not found a soul beast that suited her. It wasn’t that there weren’t any soul beasts that were willing to become her Spirit Soul; after all, everyone wanted to follow Lan Xuanyu, but the problem was that they had to be suitable!
The Thorn Dragon tilted its head and looked at Lan Mengqin, then said somewhat awkwardly, “My lord, this friend of yours is in a difficult situation. Both of her Martial Souls are very unique. We really don’t have ice-attribute ones here. As for phoenix-type…”
At this point, its eyes moved and it turned around before looking in a direction.
Following its gaze, Lan Xuanyu looked over as well, and Lan Mengqin did the same. Then, they were dumbstruck to discover that the end point of the Thorn Dragon’s gaze was actually the lady in the green dress standing next to w.a.n.g Tianyu, Yang Hui, Tang Miao, and Bai Lingshuang, who represented the soul beasts.
Lan Xuanyu swallowed his saliva. “What do you mean?”
The Thorn Dragon coughed and completely switched to mental communication. “Elder Bi Ji has a cultivation of over 600,000 years, and in fact, elder Bi Ji isn’t very good at fighting, but a long time ago, she was our number two leader, second only to Beast G.o.d. She has saved countless lives, but she has always been facing a certain problem. Because she isn’t good at fighting and compet.i.tion, she is the weakest among her peers. For example, although the Myriad Demon King and Bear Lord are ranked after elder Bi Ji, their actual fighting strength is much stronger than hers. Elder Bi Ji was able to survive her tribulations and cultivate to this day only thanks to the Beast G.o.d’s protection. Now, Beast G.o.d is about to undergo the final barrier. If he succeeds, of course, it will be for the best, this will open the path to G.o.dhood for us soul beasts. But this is easier said than done. There hasn’t been a successful case in hundreds of thousands of years! So once he fails, he might have to become the Spirit Soul of one of the humans present in the scene.”
“And once Beast G.o.d falls, the Soul Beast World will have a new leader. The Beast G.o.d has already chosen a successor. But it isn’t the Emerald Swan because elder Bi Ji will be facing her next tribulation soon. Without Beast G.o.d, it is almost certain that she will die. So, she might choose to become a Spirit Soul. But this is only under the premise that Beast G.o.d fails his tribulation, otherwise he might be able to help her overcome the tribulation, then there wouldn’t be a problem.”
Emerald Swan Bi Ji?
That was one of the top ten Great Beasts that had a cultivation of over 600,000 years and was already renowned throughout the world a few eras ago! She was ranked fourth, second only to the Beast G.o.d Di Tian, Xie Jun, and the Snow Emperor.
The Evil Lord and the Snow Emperor were long gone. Their disappearance was related to the founder of the Spirit PaG.o.da, the Spirit Ice Douluo, Huo Yuhao. Legend has it that the Evil Lord became one of Huo Yuhao’s soul rings while the Snow Emperor was the first ever Spirit Soul. Spirit Ice Douluo had relied on two famous Spirit Souls in the past : the Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor. The Ice Emperor was the seventh ranked Great BBeast at that time, the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion.
When Lan Xuanyu’s gaze landed on Lan Mengqin, he saw the little girl nodding her head vigorously. She looked so excited that it was obvious that she was extremely willing.
Lan Xuanyu looked at her doubtfully and said, “But the Emerald Swan might not be compatible with you, right?”
Lan Mengqin’s big eyes lit up. “Compatible, compatible. How is it not compatible? That is over 600,000 years of cultivation! No matter how incompatible it is, it is still many times stronger than an ordinary Spirit Soul. Above 100,000 years, it is an orange-gold soul ring! Ahhh! Just this, I like this.”
Seeing that little stars were about to appear in her eyes, Lan Xuanyu suspected that this lady was possessed by Fatty Qian.
The Thorn Dragon replied, “It’s suitable. A flying type soul beast is different from a land type soul beast. There are many types of land type soul beasts, and the strongest is naturally the dragon race. But almost all of the ancestors of flying type soul beasts have a certain amount of phoenix bloodline. The phoenix is the king of all birds, which is why there are so many birds that flock to the phoenix. With elder Bi Ji’s cultivation, the phoenix aura in her bloodline must have been awakened a long time ago, so in a certain sense, calling her the Emerald Phoenix is not wrong. Real phoenixes have long gone extinct. I dare say that elder Bi Ji’s bloodline is the closest to a real phoenix. With this bloodline power, everything else isn’t too important, right?”
Lan Xuanyu swallowed his saliva. He realized that he was starting to envy Lan Mengqin. If she really fused with a six hundred thousand-year soul beast, he was almost certain that she would become a G.o.d in the future!
“But will elder Bi Ji be willing?” At this moment, the only one who remained calm was Dong Qianqiu.
Upon hearing her words, Lan Xuanyu and Lan Mengqin came to a realization. Looking at the Emerald Swan standing together with the few human mighty figures in the distance, one could only imagine her status. Even if she was faced with a crisis where she couldn’t transcend the tribulation, she had too many choices. Why would she choose Mengqin?
The Thorn Dragon blinked. “There are two prerequisites. One is that if the Beast G.o.d doesn’t succeed in transcending his tribulation, then elder Bi Ji might consider becoming a Spirit Soul. The other is, my Lord, you. The Beast G.o.d already knows that you’re here. If the Beast G.o.d approves, elder Bi Ji should still listen to him right?”
Lan Xuanyu said, “Then how should I communicate with elder Beast G.o.d?”
“We’ll have to wait for the Tribulation Ceremony,” Thorn Dragon said. “I don’t know how the communication will happen, it will depend on Beast G.o.d. But I feel that he will definitely communicate with you.”
