"Xiao Gang, there seems to be a valley 800 meters ahead. Should we go there and have a look?"
Flanders said to the master in the air.
"We're going forward anyway, so there's no harm in going over there and taking a look."
The master thought for a moment and said.
Flender nodded, flapped his wings and took the lead. Ma Hongjun quickly flapped his phoenix fire wings to follow. Grandmaster and Tang San also quickly moved forward, following closely.
After more than half a day of continuous flying, Ma Hongjun's flying skills have made great progress, and Flender did not cheat him like he did last night. When he was flying, he would tell him when he saw problems that needed attention and teach him.
How should he fly and so on.
Ma Hongjun is not afraid of depleting his soul power. If his soul power is insufficient, he will eat Oscar's recovery sausage to restore his soul power.
Oscar's recovery sausages can be stored for seven days, so when he left this time, Oscar gave Ma Hongjun three hundred sausages.
However, this time limit is only because Oscar is still a soul master now. When his realm improves in the future, this time limit will be reduced.
Why is this happening?
Ma Hongjun understood this issue after listening to the explanations from Oscar and his teacher Shao Xin.
Oscar's level has improved, which also means that the quality of his soul power is higher. When the time comes, the effect of the first restoration intestine will definitely be better, and more soul power will be needed. It is reasonable to reduce the time limit, otherwise it will be a bit too much.
incredible.
But Oscar's realm has improved, and making a recovery sausage of his current soul master level will not only consume less soul power, but also increase the sausage's storage time, and the effect will be better. The higher the realm, the longer the time limit, and the better the effect.
It's also because the quality of his soul power is higher.
However, no matter how good the effect is, there is a limit. This limit depends on the age of his spirit ring. After all, Oscar's first spirit ring is only a century-old spirit ring.
For a team, the higher the level of the food soul master, the better the food they make and the more popular it will be. As for whether the food can be stored for a long time, this is not very important. It is usually used on site.
But for the army, a powerful food soul master is very popular.
Most of the army are ordinary people or low-level soul masters, so food-based soul masters do not need to make food that meets their realm, they only need to make food that meets the needs of army soldiers and low-level soul masters.
In this way, the higher the realm, the better the quality of soul power. Making the food needed by low-level soul masters not only consumes less soul power, but also can produce more, and the storage time is longer, and the effect is also better than that of low-level soul masters.
The effect made by the master is good.
The same is true for Oscar's sausages. If he waits until he becomes a Titled Douluo and then makes the large recovery sausages needed for the soul master stage, he may be able to make hundreds of them at once, and it is probably no problem to store them for a few years, but the production
The recovery sausages needed by Titled Douluo at that level will probably be the same as now. They can make at most a dozen sausages at a time, and the soul power consumption is even greater. Even a dozen sausages cannot be made. The storage time limit may be a few minutes.
A few minutes, or it needs to be taken on the spot.
These are what Oscar and his teacher Shao Xin told Ma Hongjun. There has never been a food system at the Title Douluo level, so the specifics are just Shao Xin's guess.
But Ma Hongjun already understands the truth, that is, making food required by a low realm at a high realm consumes less soul power, produces more quantities, and has a longer shelf life, and the effect is better than food made at a low realm.
On the contrary, making high-level food requires a lot of soul power, and the quantity produced will not be too much, but the effect will be better and the storage time will be shortened.
But no matter what, the food made will be limited by the age of the food-type soul master and the soul ring. If Oscar's soul rings become ten thousand-year soul rings, or one hundred thousand-year soul rings, or one million-year soul rings, it may be difficult to say
As for what will happen specifically, Ma Hongjun doesn’t know.
Flanders didn't ask for Oscar's sausage. Firstly, because of his high strength, if he took Oscar's sausage, the effect would be average. Secondly, he was one of the teachers who didn't like to eat Oscar's sausage.
The master originally thought that Ma Hongjun ate ordinary sausages. According to his calculations, Ma Hongjun should have exhausted his soul power long ago. Unexpectedly, after eating the sausage, he was almost the same as when he had enough soul power. Even his physical strength seemed to have recovered.
.
Knowing that the sausages Ma Hongjun ate were not simple, the master asked.
At this question, Flanders began to show off to him how talented Oscar was from Shrek Academy. However, when Ma Hongjun winked hard, Flanders did not say Oscar's soul curse.
This suddenly surprised the master. The food-type was born with full soul power. This is even rarer than Tang San's twin martial arts. As far as the master knows, Oscar is probably the only one in the world who is born with full soul power in the food-type.
A soul master.
Under the explanations of Grandmaster and Flanders, Tang San also understood what was going on, and at the same time he became more and more curious about his master's Shrek Academy.
As far as he knew, his senior brother Ma Hongjun and his senior brother's friend were both born with full soul power, and one was from the food system, and the other was from the top beast martial soul, Strange Fire Phoenix.
During the conversation between Master and Flanders, they both knew that Ma Hongjun became a disciple earlier than Tang San, and was also a disciple of Tang San's master, Flanders, so both Tang San and Master recognized Ma Hongjun as Tang San's senior brother.
The thing is, Flanders also recognized Tang San as a smart, well-behaved and sensible nephew.
It didn't matter that Tang San was curious, but as soon as he asked, he fell right into the trap of Flanders and Ma Hongjun.
Therefore, Flender took the opportunity to promote his Shrek Academy and extended an invitation to Tang San, with Ma Hongjun also lending his support.
Tang San was very moved, and the master did not object. In this way, Tang San made the decision to apply for early graduation when Ma Hongjun returned to school, and go to Shrek Academy with Ma Hongjun.
But Flanders would never have thought that when Ma Hongjun came back, he would not just bring Tang San with him.
But that's all for another day. Since Ma Hongjun let Tang San see Oscar's sausage, how could he not invite him to eat it?
You must know that when Oscar expressed his welcome to his friend, he invited him to eat his big sausage, so Ma Hongjun also said that he would invite Tang San to eat his big sausage, which was a welcome to his friend.
Tang San readily agreed, and he and the master ate one each. After finishing the meal, he was full of praise for Ma Hongjun's Oscar brand sausage.
"Hey! Why is this road so strange? It's more than 800 meters away, and why isn't there even a slightly more powerful spirit beast?"
As they walked, Flanders noticed something unusual, frowned and said.
"When anything goes wrong, there must be a monster, Flanders, be more careful!"
Flanders discovered the problem, and the master naturally discovered it too.
This place is full of weirdness. There is not even a hundred-year-old spirit beast that can walk and move. They are all spirit beasts that are about ten years old. It is obviously abnormal in this century-old spirit beast area.
Ma Hongjun fell from the sky, looked at Tang San with a confused look on his face, and followed him obediently.
At a distance of more than 800 meters, the four of them arrived quickly. What appeared in front of their eyes was a valley with a radius of 200 meters. The valley was surrounded by lush greenery, but the further they walked inside, the more desolate they seemed for some reason.
Both the master and Flender noticed something was wrong and became increasingly cautious.
Flanders no longer flies at high altitudes and chooses to fly at low altitudes. This way, he can react at any time if there is a problem.
Gradually moving forward, within fifty meters around the center of the valley, which was about one mile in diameter, for some reason, all living things died, turning it into a completely dead place.
The surrounding vegetation within fifty meters all seemed to have been drained of life and withered away. The area within fifty meters was completely dead. They were all dead vegetation, plant soul beasts, and the corpses of some animal soul beasts whose soul power and vitality had been drained.
Moreover, the death of these creatures does not seem to be very far away.
Master and Flanders frowned. Such a strange terrain must have something fishy, or there must be a strange spirit beast.
"Xiao Gang, look what that is. Why is there a vine there when all the creatures around it are dead?"
Flanders frowned and said with an incomprehensible expression.
"What the hell is that?"
It turned out that in the center of the valley a hundred meters in front of them, among the dead trees, stood a tall green tree that was probably a thousand years old.
It is rare to see a thousand-year-old greenwood tree in the area of a century-old soul beast, and the characteristic of soul beasts like the greenwood tree is its unparalleled toughness.
However, the strange thing is that this thousand-year-old soul beast Qingmu Shu is dead like other creatures here.
What's even weirder is that a purple-black vine is wrapped around the dead green tree. The purple-black leaves look a bit like enlarged leaves of Blue Silver Grass. It is the only living creature around here.
It makes people feel that everything here is so weird and abnormal, full of weirdness.
"Xiao Gang, do you think that vine is purple wisteria? Is it suitable for mistress?"
Flanders said with a surprised look, thinking that all the other creatures around him were dead, so why was that vine still alive?
Looking carefully, the vine was purple-black and looked like purple wisteria, but he wasn't sure.
The master looked at it carefully, frowned deeply, and said in silence for a long time.
"This vine is not Wisteria, and I have never seen this kind of spirit beast, but looking at the surroundings, it is definitely not Wisteria. Wisteria is not so domineering."
Ma Hongjun and Tang San looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what to say at all.
"I don't know, forget it, let's go and find a suitable soul beast for Xiao San!"
Flanders frowned and said.
The master stared closely at the purple-black vine, thinking quickly, not knowing what he thought of, and said to Flanders.
"Flanders, go over and take a closer look to see if those exposed rocks under the vine are meteorites!"
"What's the matter? What's the significance of this?"
Flanders asked doubtfully, but still touched it carefully.
It was so weird here that he couldn't help but be careful, lest he capsize in the gutter.
"I'm not sure either, but I need to verify it before I can confirm it!"
The master said.
Flender restrained his breath and touched it carefully.
Afraid of disturbing the strange purple-black vine, I took a closer look, then quietly returned and nodded to the master.
The master's expression suddenly became a little excited, and information about a certain soul beast emerged in his mind.
Concentrating his breath, the master carefully moved fifty meters forward, not daring to breathe out, and stared closely at the purple-black vine.
Going further would be the dead zone. He didn't dare to go any further. He was careful not to make a big mistake.
Seeing this, Flanders told Tang San and Ma Hongjun, and led the two of them to touch it cautiously.
"Fland, I probably know what kind of spirit beast this is!"
After observing for a long time, the master suddenly and cautiously whispered that here, they could no longer communicate like before and must be careful, otherwise they might disturb the purple-black vine.
It's just that the master's expression was a little strange, and he was excited and regretful, as if he had seen some treasure but had no chance of meeting him. In short, he was very confused.
"What is it?"
Flanders asked in a low voice, Ma Hongjun and Tang San looked at the master eagerly, they didn't even know what it was.
What makes Ma Hongjun feel weird is that if that thing were shrunk and then changed to blue, it would probably look the same as the blue silver grass on the roadside.
The master had a tangled expression on his face and said slowly with an ugly face.
"If what is recorded in the book is correct, this should be the Tianxing Vine!"
"What?"
"Tian Xing Vine!"
Flanders, Ma Hongjun and Tang San looked in disbelief and said in horror.
Does that kind of soul beast really exist?
"No, retreat quickly!"
The three people were so excited that their auras leaked out. The master's face turned extremely ugly and he spoke quickly.
Flanders didn't dare to neglect, he held Tang San in one hand and Ma Hongjun in the other, and retreated quickly. The master ran behind with Luo Sanpao.
The purple-black vines in the center of the valley seemed to be alive, dancing crazily, like purple-black poisonous pythons, attacking Ma Hongjun and the others.
The four of them retreated until they were a hundred meters away, before the vine shrank back unwillingly and danced wildly in the center of the valley, as if it was annoyed that it had not caught its prey.
At this time, the master breathed a sigh of relief, watching Flanders put down Tang San and Ma Hongjun, turned around and stared closely at the purple-black vines in the center of the valley and said.
"That should be the Heavenly Star Vine. Other soul beasts cannot have vines that can extend to a hundred meters long when launching an attack at the age of a century-old soul beast."
"What about the century-old Star Vine? I didn't expect it to actually exist. It should be the most suitable soul beast for Xiao San, right? Why do you look so ugly?"
Flanders asked in confusion. In their collection of books at Shrek Academy, there was only an introduction to this kind of soul beast. It was written by the master, but it was not detailed. Therefore, he and Ma Hongjun had not even known whether this kind of soul beast existed before.
Not sure, let alone knowing and how to identify it.
The master seemed to have figured something out, his face became slightly better, he sighed and said.
"Because this should be a Sky Star Vine that is about five hundred years old, and it is beyond the limit that Xiao San can absorb."
Looking at the doubtful looks of the three people, the master continued.
"Spirit beasts like Tianxing Vine generally cannot exist on the mainland. Only with meteorites falling from the sky, there is a certain chance that they will come to our world from outside, so I want you to see if those exposed rocks are meteorites.
."
Flanders, Ma Hongjun, and Tang San looked astonished. Ma Hongjun thought, "So this is the case. No wonder there is a record in the records of this kind of spirit beast that can absorb star cores to grow. It turns out to be an extraterrestrial spirit beast, accompanied by
The meteorite came to Douluo Continent.
Seeing that the three people understood, the master continued.
"Look, it has a total of five vines, and each of them is about ten meters long. Before the thousand years ago, the Sky Star Vine would grow one vine every hundred years, and grow one meter every ten years, which means that this one is about five hundred years old.
The Star Vine."
"The stems and leaves of Tianxing Vine are all purple-black, so it looks like purple wisteria. If it shrinks and turns blue, it looks particularly like Blue Silver Grass. Only when it is thousands of years old will the mysterious golden lines appear on the stems and leaves."
"Looking at the surrounding creatures, they are all dead, which means that this is indeed the Star Vine. After all, the Wisteria will not be so overbearing, and its growth will not suck out all the life around it."
"It's a pity that the age of this Star Vine exceeds the limit of the first soul ring and is not suitable for Xiao San. Flanders, kill this Star Vine and we will find a suitable soul beast for Xiao San."
"Wait a moment, uncle."
Seeing Flanders about to rush forward, Tang San quickly stopped him and asked the master.
"Teacher, if you don't choose its soul ring, why do you want to kill it?"
"The Sky Star Vine is very special, but as you can see, this thing is very overbearing. Generally, as long as the plant-type martial soul absorbs it, there is an 80% chance that it will inherit all the abilities of the Sky Star Vine. However, because of these characteristics of the Sky Star Vine, wait for it
If it continues to grow, I'm afraid it will bring devastating disasters to this world."
"Therefore, any soul master or intelligent soul beast who recognizes it and is stronger than it will definitely kill it."
"This kind of soul beast is completely an intruder and plunderer from outside the world. I don't know how this Sky Star Vine has not been discovered. Could it be that it has only grown in the past few years?"
The master said with a wry smile in his heart. It's a pity that few soul masters can recognize this kind of soul beast, let alone a soul beast.
After listening to the master's explanation, Tang San understood what Flanders and the master had discussed before.
This kind of soul beast is indeed too terrifying. If it continues to grow, I am afraid it will really bring unimaginable disasters to this world.
"Uncle Master, does Tianxing Vine grow quickly?"
Ma Hongjun heard the master's last soliloquy and asked doubtfully.
The master nodded, shook his head, and said in the puzzled eyes of the three people, "The Star Vine comes to this world with the meteorite. At first, there will be an incubation period of a hundred to tens of thousands of years. However, no one can say for sure at this time.
Some were directly burned to death by sky fire when the meteorites came, but some survived by chance. The best way to identify them is to see if there are meteorites around them and whether they grow on the meteorites, and then confirm based on their characteristics.
, after the incubation period, the Star Vine seeds will begin to take root and germinate quickly. Because of its overbearing characteristics and the ability to absorb any energy, it grows very quickly. One day can be equivalent to one year for other soul beasts. Therefore, I guess, this Star Vine
I’m afraid it grew up during this year.”
"However, when the Sky Star Vine reaches the 100,000-year level, its growth rate will slow down and become like ordinary Blue Silver Grass. It will grow extremely slowly."
"Maybe that's the case. There may have been Star Vine before, but in the end, all those that appeared were eliminated!"
After the master finished speaking, he looked at the dead creatures fifty meters away in front of him, shook his head, and said again.
"This Star Vine and even the thousand-year-old greenwood tree have been drained of their soul and vitality and died. I'm afraid it's not even a year old, and it's very likely that it won't even be half a year old."
"hiss!"
The three of them took a deep breath. Isn't Xingteng too scary today?
Fortunately, fortunately, it will slow down once you reach the 100,000-year level, otherwise it would be really terrifying.
But this way, Ma Hongjun had new questions, so he asked the master.
"Uncle Master, you said that the Sky Star Vine grows very fast, but why does its growth slow down when it reaches the 100,000-year level?"
The master frowned and thought for a while before speaking.
"I don't know much about this, but according to the description of the Star Vine in ancient books, I guess that it should be at the 100,000-year level that the Star Vine will really start to transform to that terrifying level, so a larger one will be needed.
Energy, maybe this is the reason why it grew slowly in the later period."
The three of them nodded in understanding, feeling that the master's analysis made sense and that this might be the truth.
But that's fine, otherwise once the Star Vine grows, it may be a devastating disaster.
"Teacher, I want to choose this as my first spirit ring. I have been exercising since I was one year old. I feel that my physique should be able to absorb the spirit ring of this spirit beast."
Tang San thought for a while and said, he felt that it was a pity to destroy such a powerful spirit beast. He just let him absorb it, and treat it as eliminating harm for the people. Maybe it could replenish his Blue Silver Grass like the master said.
This is the disadvantage of using up the spirit of martial arts.
Moreover, with the righteousness and peace of Xuantian Kung, the condensation of soul power, and his long-term training, he felt that it was very promising to absorb this soul ring.
"Xiaosan, how sure are you?"
Tang San's extremely serious look made the master frown. He refused in his heart, but he didn't want to give up such a precious soul ring. Tang San didn't look like he was unsure, so he asked directly about the chance of success.
"Eighty percent!"
Tang San solemnly uttered two words.
"Okay, Flanders, you cut off all the vines of the Sky Star Vine, as well as all the five underground roots. As long as you don't destroy the golden ball in the center between the roots and the vines, that's it.
heart."
The master said to Flanders.
"Hey, look, such a domineering invader can use Xiao San's soul ring to eliminate harm for the people. I can't wait to see what happens to Blue Silver Grass after Xiao San absorbs this soul ring!"
"And you are also serious. Now that we know it is Tianxing Vine, why did we run just now?"
Flanders smiled slightly. Knowing that this was the Star Vine, he understood the strangeness here, and he felt relieved.
Moreover, it would be a pity to give up such a precious soul ring. It is only 500 years old, which is only 77 years beyond the limit of the first soul ring. It is still possible to give it a try.
"The Sky Star Vine has the characteristic of infinite growth. Although this five-hundred-year-old one can only extend a hundred meters, but if we take action, who will protect Xiaosan and Hongjun?"
The master asked rhetorically.
"Well, you are the master and you are right!"
Flanders shrugged helplessly and walked towards the Star Vine after speaking.
The tall figure watching secretly decided in his heart that if Tang San was in danger later, he would take action in time and save Tang San at all costs.
There is no living creature within fifty meters around the Star Vine, which shows its dominance, because almost all the energy is monopolized by the Star Vine, leaving no room for other soul beasts to survive.
The eagle's claws are flying across the sky, fierce and fierce, and the iron wings are slashing horizontally and vertically, indestructible!
The purple and black vines danced, whipping the sky and splitting the earth, like a dragon dancing wildly.
Seeing that Flanders was already fighting with the Sky Star Vine, the master began to explain the attack methods and weaknesses of the Sky Star Vine to Ma Hongjun and Tang San.
"The Heavenly Star Vine's power reaches the sky, comparable to the Titan Giant Ape and the Purple Scale Sky-Swallowing Python of the same level. Its main attacks in the early stage are whipping and strangulation. If it grows to the 100,000-year-old level, it will have terrifying and domineering swallowing attack capabilities."
"Maybe it grew slowly in the later period, and as a result, as soon as it was discovered, it would be wiped out. Therefore, relevant records about it were handed down on the mainland. I also saw it in an ancient book that I got by chance. Later, I read it
It’s written into the soul beast book.”
"Although the Sky Star Vine has only these two early attack methods, its defense and vitality are also very terrifying, so this makes the Sky Star Vine very difficult to deal with."
"Furthermore, the Star Vine can absorb any energy, so generally it is immune to physical elemental attacks of the same level and about the same level. In addition to physical and elemental attacks with extreme properties, it can also cause some damage to the Star Vine."
"But fortunately, only the Star Vine that reaches the ten thousand-year-old level can produce spiritual intelligence, while those below the ten-thousand-year-old level can only have instinctive attack and defense."
"To deal with the Sky Star Vine, you can only use level suppression or extreme attack power. Otherwise, for people of the same level and level, the Sky Star Vine has almost no weaknesses and is very difficult to deal with. It often takes an extremely high price to kill it.
die."
"Teacher, you said that Tianxing Vine has almost no weaknesses when facing soul beasts and soul masters of the same level. That means it still has a weakness. What is it?"
Tang San asked carefully, hearing the highlights in the master's words.
"There is a weakness. The weakness of Tianxing Vine is to find its main root. The ancient book records that there is a golden node like a tumor on its main root. That node is the life gate of Tianxing Vine, which is equivalent to the human heart.
It is the golden ball I just mentioned. As long as this golden ball is punctured or broken, the Star Vine will die."
"But for many soul masters, this weakness is almost non-existent, because firstly, they can't get close to them, secondly, they don't know which is the main root when they get close, and thirdly, once they find the main root, ordinary attacks can't break through the sky star at all.
Defense of Vine.”
"So the best way to deal with Tianxing Vine is to kill it beyond the level."
The master explained.
"Indeed, if it is not an over-level kill, with this level of tenacity, it is really not something that can be broken through by ordinary attacks without repeatedly attacking one place."
While the master was explaining, Flanders also solved the Star Vine and came over with a wooden stake connected to the remaining roots.
After saying something, he quickly urged Tang San.
"Xiao San, hurry up and get rid of it. Otherwise, it will take a lot of effort to wait for this thing to slow down. With its characteristics of unlimited growth as long as it has sufficient energy!"
Tang San nodded seriously, took out the dagger given by the master, pointed it at Flanders' hand, and pierced the peach-sized golden ball in the middle of the wooden stake.
"Pfft!"
"Tian Xing Vine, pawn!"
"Xiao San, you must remember that no matter how the power of the soul ring impacts, you must hold on and never give up no matter what. Only in this way can you have a chance to successfully absorb it."
The master watched the yellow light in Flanders' hand begin to condense above the wooden pile, and gave Tang San a serious warning.
"Teacher, I can!"
Tang San nodded in agreement.
"Don't worry, absorb it. As long as I'm here, no one can disturb you!"
Flanders said and handed the wooden stake in his hand to Tang San.
"Thank you, uncle!"
Tang San thanked him seriously.
"Junior Junior Brother Xiaosan, come on!"
Ma Hongjun encouraged Tang San. Tang San nodded seriously and walked aside to absorb the soul ring.
