Chapter 17 Teacher Mo
The next day, evening.
RAW: https://69shuba.cx/txt/85071/39416128
Soul Hunting Forest, core area.
In a clearing in the forest.
Teacher Mo was drying the washed clothes in front of the fire.
It is said that making a fire is an extremely dangerous act not only in the forest, but also in any place where soul beasts live.
Because the smoke from the fire will expose your whereabouts and attract the attention of some soul masters and soul beasts.
However, this is a man-made Soul Hunting Forest, with patrols on duty 24 hours a day. In addition, Teacher Mo himself is strong enough, so there is no need to consider so much.
After drying his own clothes, Teacher Mo put Xia Liang's clothes on the fire to dry.
After tonight, it will be the sixth day in the Soul Hunting Forest, but there is still no trace of the Nether Ghost Bear.
Teacher Mo didn't complain about anything. After all, when he was working in a mercenary group, he once spent three full months to help his employer find a desired soul beast.
Compared to this, six days is a short period of time.
Finding the soul beast of your choice requires a certain amount of luck.
At this time, a ball of black and purple ghost fire slowly floated down from the sky onto Xia Liang's shoulder.
After ending his meditation, Xia Liang opened his eyes and listened to the sound of the black and purple ghost fire conveyed through the power of his soul, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Have you found it?" Teacher Mo asked.
Xia Liang smiled and nodded.
"What are you waiting for? Let's go. Don't let your prey get away."
As he spoke, Teacher Mo put out the fire, and without even having time to fold up the tent, he followed Xia Liang and ran towards the dark path ahead.
About five minutes passed.
The two came to a lake.
There is a dense forest on the shore of the lake.
A black bear with golden eyes was crawling on the trunk of a big tree, as if trying to do something.
Xia Liang and Teacher Mo hid behind two big trees, secretly watching the black bear's every move twenty meters away.
The lake surface reflects the light from the stars and the moon, making it possible to see things in the pitch-black environment.
Xia Liang clearly saw that the black bear crawling on the tree trunk was about to dig honey from the tree hole. A large number of bees were circling around the black bear, and the harsh buzzing sound was heard in the air.
Some bees raised the stingers on their butts and stung the black bear frantically.
However, the black bear's skin was too thick and it completely ignored the bee's stings. It concentrated on digging the honey in the tree hole and putting it into its mouth.
Three minutes later.
The black bear had eaten all the honey in the tree hole and turned around to glare at the swarm of bees that were stinging its back.
The black bear suddenly raised its two thick arms and a terrifying roar burst out from its mouth.
roar--
All the bees circling around its body were killed by the rolling sound waves caused by the roar, and some of the bees were torn into pieces when they fell to the ground.
Xia Liang and Teacher Mo, who were hiding behind two big trees, covered their ears with their hands almost at the same time. Although they were twenty meters apart, when the black bear's roar sounded, it was like a bomb exploding next to their ears, and their eardrums vibrated violently as if they were about to be torn apart.
Just from the roar, one can tell that this black bear is definitely a power-type soul beast.
That roar had such a domineering shock force only because it was empowered by soul power.
At the moment the black bear turned around, Xia Liang and Teacher Mo both saw the two white cross-shaped patterns on the black bear's chest, which is the unique hair feature of the Nether Ghost Bear.
The Netherworld Ghost Bear, which has been cultivating for a hundred years, has two cross-shaped patterns on its chest that tend to be white.
A thousand years of cultivation is dark gray.
As for the Netherworld Ghost Bear that has cultivated for ten thousand years, the color of the only pattern on its body will change from dark gray to black. At that time, the entire body of the Netherworld Ghost Bear will also turn pure black without a trace of other colors.
It is recorded in the soul beast manuscript given by Yu Xiaogang that the Nether Ghost Bear, which has been cultivating for ten thousand years, has evolved the bloodline of a king. The terrifying power of the bear paw can touch the realm of death attributes and can enhance the lethality of each attack.
The cross-shaped pattern on the Netherworld Ghost Bear in front of him tends to be white, and it is obvious that he has only cultivated for a hundred years.
Two patterns extend diagonally downward from the shoulders to the abdomen. Judging from the length and color depth of the patterns, this Netherworld Ghost Bear has been practicing for at least five hundred years.
"Teacher Mo, I want it." Xia Liang said in a low voice.
Hearing this, Teacher Mo was a little surprised. Before he could refute, the Nether Ghost Bear twenty meters away had already cast a fierce look at him.
His whereabouts were exposed in advance, and Teacher Mo tried to attract all the hostility to himself, so he walked out from behind the big tree and stood ten meters away from the Nether Ghost Bear.
"Ah Liang, we'll talk later. I'll subdue this Nether Ghost Bear first. You have to hide well and activate the rib defense of the Skeleton Martial Spirit at all times to avoid being accidentally injured."
The moment the sound disappeared, the sonorous bird song suddenly rang out.
An eagle with green lightning wrapped all over its body appeared illusory behind Teacher Mo.
The wings filled with the aura of thunder and lightning spread out to both sides, making the Thunder Eagle look even bigger than the five-meter-tall Nether Ghost Bear.
Thunder Eagle, this is exactly Teacher Mo's martial spirit.
The moment his martial soul appeared, three white, yellow and purple soul rings were already rotating around his body, flashing dazzling soul ring light.
roar----
Faced with the momentum suppression caused by the Thunder Eagle Martial Spirit, the Nether Ghost Bear roared and opened its two thick arms to the sides, ready to pounce on Teacher Mo.
But when the three soul rings appeared, the Nether Ghost Bear immediately gave up the idea and turned his attention to Xia Liang who was hiding behind Teacher Mo and had just activated his rib defense.
Bullying the weak is not only the norm in the soul master world, it is also an instinctive reaction engraved in the genes of soul beasts.
With another roar, the Nether Ghost Bear used the rolling sound waves as a propulsion force and rushed forward with its huge body. It passed by Teacher Mo like a ghost and pounced towards Xia Liang's position.
Teacher Mo obviously did not expect that this Netherworld Ghost Bear would be so decisive. Knowing that he was no match for his opponent, he neither fled nor fought, but instead targeted the weaker person.
It all happened too suddenly.
All the knowledge about soul beasts was learned from books. It was the first time for Xia Liang to deal with soul beasts in his life. Faced with the sudden attack of the Nether Ghost Bear, he stood there in a daze as if suppressed by a force.
Is this overbearing force the soul power of the Nether Ghost Bear?
It is said that soul beasts of ten thousand years old will become intelligent, so how come this Nether Ghost Bear seems to have the thinking ability of humans and actually wants to pick on the weak first?
Seeing the huge black bear figure rushing towards him, Xia Liang was still in a daze. Fortunately, he had covered his whole body with the ribs of the Skeleton Martial Spirit in advance, so even if he didn't have time to dodge, he could ensure that he would not be killed by a palm.
At this moment, a green lightning flashed.
When Xia Liang came to his senses, what appeared in his field of vision was not the bear paw of the Netherworld Ghost Bear, but the back of Teacher Mo.
At this time, Teacher Mo had already completed the Thunder Eagle possession, and the eagle claws wrapped in lightning were colliding with the bear paw swung by the Netherworld Ghost Bear.
In addition to its amazing strength, the Nether Ghost Bear also has excellent defensive capabilities. With the dual effects of strength and defense, its bear paws can actually resist Teacher Mo's lightning eagle claws for a short period of time.
