Chapter 11

The vice principal led Zhongli into the forest carefully, examining the surrounding area and checking for any signs of dangerous soul beasts. Although he was a soul lord, he didn't dare to relax around this forest.

Zhongli also took out a kunai and summoned the Blue Silver Emperor, the martial soul.

A plant with a golden-blue pattern that was very different from other blue silver grass appeared in his right hand.

Zhongli released the Blue Silver Emperor's domain, allowing him to scan his surroundings for anything dangerous.

There is no doubt that within the perception range of Zhongli's Blue Silver Emperor Domain, he easily scanned the surrounding forest and searched for soul beasts without consuming too much soul power.

After a few hours of searching around the soul-hunting forest, Zhongli couldn't help but shake his head in frustration.

"Is my luck so bad? I haven't even seen a hundred-year-old soul beast around. It's been an hour since we entered this soul-hunting forest," Zhongli thought.

Even though Zhongli was frustrated when he didn't find any soul beast that suited him, not to mention he hadn't seen a soul beast older than 70 years in this forest after searching for hours.

Suddenly, the vice principal's face stiffened, and he felt the surging and dense breath of life around him. Being there, he became alert.

From the corner of his eye, his gaze fell on Zhongli's Blue Silver Emperor spirit and he was shocked: "The quality of your mutated 'Blue Silver Grass' is really extraordinary."

Although I am not a plant-based spirit master, I still have a little understanding of plant-based spirits, but your Blue Silver Grass has an extreme life force and gives off a feeling like an Emperor among plant spirits.

So I suggest you choose the spirit beasts wisely; otherwise, "The spirit master cannot be replaced after absorbing the spirit ring," Vice Principal Zhongli kindly advised.

Upon hearing the vice principal's words, Zhongli replied with a smile: "Maybe the 'Blue Silver Grass' that I mutated is the king of Blue Silver Grass! As for the spirit ring, I would like to find a snake-type spirit beast with a cultivation base of about 400 years, and it's best to be highly toxic."

Hearing Zhongli's plan to absorb a snake-type spirit beast, the vice principal thought about it and responded: "I suggest you should not absorb an animal-type beast spirit but a plant-type beast. Even if I try to stop you, you will still absorb a Snake-Type spirit beast, right?" The vice principal glanced at Zhongli's

Zhongli walked with the vice principal, but as he looked at his face, the vice principal already had an answer, which made him let out a sigh and say, "Okay, but if anything dangerous happens during the absorption of the spirit ring, I will stop in the middle of the process."

Zhongli responded with a nod.

Then the vice principal asked, "Why would you choose a snake-like spirit beast?"

Zhongli responded, "Isn't this very simple! After the soul master kills the soul beast and absorbs the soul ring, there is a high chance that he will obtain the soul ability with the characteristics of the soul beast. Even though my blue silver grass is much stronger than normal blue silver grass, it has too many restrictions and limits. If I absorb a snake-type spirit beast, I can also gain its characteristic toughness, flexibility, and most importantly, poison."

The vice principal was left astonished after hearing Zhongli's explanation and also by Zhongli's insight and knowledge about soul beasts. He is simply a genius, much better than the master who shouts "Theory is invincible" every day but doesn't know where the invincible is.

The vice principal curiously asks, "My child, you just came to Nuoding Academy yesterday. Who told you this?"

"It was told to me by a grandpa named Tom," Zhongli replied without showing shame on his face after using Emperor Soul Village Elder Tom's name.

Tom? I don't know any person who is this knowledgeable about soul beasts in the circle of Soul Masters. Maybe he must be some unknown Soul Master who doesn't like to show himself. Let's acquire more information about this person for this child, the vice principal thought.

The vice principal asks in a gentle tone, "This Elder Tom must be a very powerful Soul Master, right, Zhongli?" In response, Zhongli nodded, so he continued, "So, what is his cultivation level?"

The Zhongli scratched his back and replied: "I don't know much, but I saw six Soul Rings floating around him. The first two are yellow, the middle two are purple, and the last two are black."

The vice principal exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's actually the Spirit Emperor, and it's the Spirit Emperor with the top-level spirit ring configuration!"

The Dean of Nuoding Academy only had Spirit Ancestor rank, and the master in Spirit Hall in Nuoding City is Spirit King Rank.

Senior Tom is such a strong person, why haven't I heard about him, which left the vice principal confused.

The vice principal asked again, "Well, where does that senior live?"

With the idea of telling nonsense and not wanting money, Zhongli said, "I don't know, after I drank the water at my house, he spread his huge wings and flew away. Is the Spirit Emperor able to fly?"

"Even our dean is far from being an opponent of Senior Tom! It seems that this senior has a rare fighting spirit," the vice principal said.

×××××××××××××××××××

The two of them walked all the way to the depths of the forest. Although they saw a few soul beasts with a cultivation base of over a hundred years, they still did not find a suitable soul beast for Zhongli.

As night fell, the moonlight replaced the setting sun and sprinkled on the ground.

Helpless, the two of them set up camp for staying in the forest.

The vice principal scattered the medicinal powder similar to his realgar around the camp.

"Well, kid, I'll keep watch at night while you go and rest.

Zhongli nodded when he heard the vice principal; he did not refuse. After entering the camp, instead of sleeping, he entered a semi-cultivation state. At the same time, he opened the Blue Silver Domain to check whether there were traces of soul beasts around him.

At three or four o'clock in the morning the next day, it was less than two hours before dawn. The vice principal, who was in charge of watching, was already drowsy.

Then suddenly, Zhongli felt that the surrounding area suddenly became silent for a few miles and felt a powerful aura approaching in his direction.

Zhongli carefully examines the Soul Beast's whole body with his blue-silver domain.

What appears is a snake-type Soul Beast, which has an aura much stronger than that of 400-year-old spirit Beasts. Its body also sparkles with lightning from time to time.

Aura around this spirit beast much stronger than a normal 100-year-old beast. Also, it's a snake-type soul beast which I am searching for. So, without delay, Zhongli gets out of the tent silently.

Zhongli glanced at the sleepy vice principal and left the camp quietly. He turned over and jumped onto the trunk, then with a few flashes, disappeared in place.

He appeared 100 meters away from the spirit beast on the tree.

A giant snake in front of Zhongli has pure white scales and sparkles lightning from his horn from time to time. Even from afar, he felt danger.

What a powerful spirit beast! Just looking at him gives me a chilling feeling. The majestic attitude of this spirit beast.

System check the properties of this spirit.

Zhongli mentally commands.
