Douluo: I'm Really Ordinary

Chapter 24: Nian Soul Beast

The outskirts of the Soul Beast Forest.

After Hu Xian took out the map, the three of them followed the various marks on the map to avoid dangerous places and take various detours.

The map is marked in great detail, which the Iron-Blooded Mercenary Group has figured out little by little over the years.

It not only has the haunting times of some special spirit beasts, but also the places and places of some spirit beasts that like to roam in and around the forest.

As expected, they didn't encounter any soul beasts along the way. Occasionally, a few ten-year-old soul beasts saw them and ran away quickly.

This made Jiang Cheng couldn't help but sigh, if this map was sold for two hundred gold soul coins, there would still be people who wanted it.

There are also such maps on the market, drawn by others, but the content is incomplete.

Compared with the one in Hu Xian's hand, it is a defective product at best, and it only sells for 10 gold soul coins.

"Bah."

Jiang Cheng paused and made a sword mark on a large banyan tree next to him.

From the beginning to now, every time Jiang Cheng walked 500 meters, he would draw a sword in a conspicuous place.

"What are you doing? You have the map in hand. Are you still worried that we will get lost?"

Hu Xian couldn't help but laugh.

"It's just in case, it's better to be careful. If there's fog or dark clouds and heavy rain, these are obvious signs."

Jiang Cheng's face was full of seriousness. Even though he had his own thousand-year-old soul skill Fufeng Sword Technique, he was confident enough to single-handedly kill a 700-year-old soul beast.

But after all, this was his first time leading a team, and he had to ensure the safety of the other two people and make it as foolproof as possible.

As for the boy, through their understanding on the road, they knew that this guy's name was Meng Shuo.

He is the same age as Jiang Cheng, but already has a soul power level of level 20. He seems to have good talent.

"Do you have any requirements for the soul beast? Or you can specify a separate one, but you need to pay more."

On the way, Hu Xian turned around and asked.

Meng Shuo scratched his head and clasped his fingers again.

"No need, my martial spirit is quite special. As long as the spirit beast is old enough, everything else is easy."

"That's good."

Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Previously, Niu Dali followed the school to hunt soul beasts and asked for one soul beast by name. In those few days, he almost drove the school teacher to death.

Hu Xian pointed at the map.

"The front is the area where the 500-year-old soul beasts are active, but there are two red dots here, both of which are about 700-year-old soul beasts, which my uncle checked before."

"The reason why I kept them was because I thought someone might hire our mercenary group to kill soul beasts in the future. I didn't expect that they would actually come in handy now."

"As expected of Uncle Long, he uses all good things on the edge of the blade."

"It's no wonder you weren't too nervous along the way. It turns out you knew it before setting off."

"Of course, as long as you don't perform abnormally, I'll have no problem at all."

Hu Xian, who has turned into a guide, is very proud.

As they approached their destination, the surrounding towering trees turned into gradually opening shrubbery, with lush green dotted with various wildflowers.

Jiang Cheng handed the map to Hu Xian.

"It seems like this is it. It's a good place. The terrain is open, which is convenient for me to fight."

"Did you smell anything strange?"

Meng Shuo sniffed, his eyes suddenly widened, he took two steps back and pointed in the direction to his right.

I saw a pair of bloodthirsty wolf eyes exposed in the thorn bushes over there, and then slowly walked out, staring at them with a pair of blood-stained wolf fangs.

It looked like it had just had a feast. There were no wounds on its head, but it was covered with crimson blood.

"It seems like... a shadow wolf."

Jiang Cheng nodded, but before he finished speaking, Meng Shuo said with certainty.

"That's right. Judging from its size and its mostly gray wolf tail, it should be a spirit beast that is more than 650 years old but less than 800 years old."

"That's the correct answer, right?"

Jiang Cheng looked at Meng Shuo.

"No problem, the Shadow Wolf is very fast and its bite force is amazing. Be careful!"

Meng Shuo warned worriedly.

"Well, you guys stand back and pay attention to what's going on around you, and I'll deal with it."

Jiang Cheng held a dagger in his hand and slowly trembled in his heart as he looked at the shadow wolf with angry eyes in front of him, ready to attack him.

"Wow."

Almost in an instant, the Shadow Wolf roared angrily, struck with its front paws, jumped in front of Jiang Cheng, and pounced on him.

"Wind Shadow Kill!"

Jiang Cheng released the soul ring, and the blade of the sword was dazzling. While dodging sideways, he stabbed the shadow with a killing blow, leaving a dazzling blood mark.

"Ow..."

Shadow Wolf felt pain in his body, looked at Jiang Cheng in surprise and hesitated on the spot.

Over there, Meng Shuo was already stunned. He pointed at Jiang Cheng, who was confronting the Shadow Wolf, and was frightened.

"You, you, you are not a great soul master, and your soul power is lower than mine!"

He really wanted to cry. He seriously suspected that he had been betrayed.

"Be quiet. Judging from the battle just now, Jiang Cheng has the strength."

"How is it possible? He is a first-level soul master. He is a 700-year-old ghost..."

Before Meng Shuo finished speaking, he saw Jiang Cheng over there parrying the claws of the Shadow Wolf with a sword, and then thrust out two swords with his backhand!

Kazekage kills two combos!

"呲呲."

In mid-air, two streaks of blood flashed from the Shadow Wolf's body, and he fell half to the ground, teetering on the ground.

Meng Shuo was completely stunned.

"Is this... almost winning?"

"I told you, Jiang Cheng is the top student in our school and wins the grade model every year. How could he not have any real talent!"

Hu Xian, who had expressed doubts about Jiang Cheng just now, was now feeling proud.

Meng Shuo was speechless: "When did you say that?"

On the other side, Jiang Cheng was holding a dagger, and a few pieces of sword energy passed by. The shadow wolf was already covered in blood, lying on the ground, staring at him ferociously.

Jiang Cheng took two steps back and looked at Meng Shuo.

"It should be okay, you try."

He also didn't expect that even before using Fufeng Sword Technique, he could severely damage the shadow wolf with just two instant wind shadow kills.

"You won so quickly?"

Meng Shuo looked surprised, looked at the soul beast lying on the ground, trotted over, took out a dagger from the soul guide close to his body, and prepared to stab it.

"Roar."

Suddenly, the Shadow Wolf stood up, roared angrily, and his body was filled with blood, and his aura was much stronger than before.

"careful!"

The moment the shadow wolf pounced on Meng Shuo, Jiang Cheng's tense nerves immediately unraveled, he pushed him away, and stabbed him with Feng Ying's sword with his backhand!

"boom!"

A terrifying force came from the tip of the sword. Jiang Cheng took a few steps back before resisting the attack, with a look of surprise on his face.

Not only him, but Meng Shuo, who was joining Hu Xian at the side, also noticed something unusual and turned pale.

"This wolf... seems to have evolved."

Just as Meng Shuo said, the shadow wolf exudes a deep yellow light, and there are also faint purple spots, and there are more and more purple spots.

It was obvious that it had made a temporary breakthrough and was evolving towards the level of a thousand-year soul beast.

The powerful aura on his body and the sudden stabbing blow just now are proof.

Jiang Cheng also frowned.

The teacher of soul beast science did say that soul beasts transition from a hundred years to a thousand years, and from a thousand years to ten thousand years.

The most obvious feature is the color change of the soul power.

At this moment, the shadow wolf is half yellow and purple. It is obvious that it is transitioning into this thousand-year stage and is no longer the same.

But how could it suddenly evolve from 700 years to a thousand years? Jiang Cheng felt really overwhelmed.

Over there, Hu Xian thought of something. He opened the bushes where the shadow wolf was hiding just now and let out a horrified look.

"There is a half-eaten bear spirit beast inside. Judging from its size, it must be at least a thousand years old."

Jiang Cheng suddenly realized that no wonder the Shadow Wolf's mouth was full of blood when it came out just now. It turned out that it had just had a feast, and the food was... a thousand-year soul beast.

It seems that the shadow wolf encountered a dying bear spirit beast and ate it, leading to the current breakthrough.

"It's really like a blind cat meets a dead mouse."

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath.
