Douluo's Peerless Confrontation

Chapter 348 Bold Idea, Demonic Forest

But how could a million-year-old soul ring be easily obtained? The only soul beasts he knew about at present were the Deep Sea Demonic Whale King and the Dream Ice Silkworm from ten thousand years ago.
The former was killed ten thousand years ago, and the latter also fell into the realm of a million-year soul beast. Now he is just an ordinary thousand-year ice silkworm, and his soul ring is of no use.
Apart from these two million-year-level soul beasts, he really didn't know where there were million-year-level soul beasts on the mainland. There was no way to find them, and it was simply not realistic to obtain a million-year-old soul ring.
Jing Chen had actually considered the wife of the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who would be the so-called Demon Emperor ten thousand years later. She was also a Deep Sea Demon Whale and was suitable for him in terms of attributes.
But it is unknown whether the age has reached the million-year level. After all, when she has a hundred-level godless combat power, it will be ten thousand years later, and she may have a million years at that time.
Ten thousand years ago, she most likely did not have a million-year cultivation. He couldn't judge the specific number of years and couldn't give an approximate number of years.
Moreover, he didn't know where the Demon Emperor was, and he didn't have a general area. To find her in the vast sea, it would be an exaggeration to say that it was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Rather than aimlessly searching for the Demon Emperor, he actually preferred to try his luck in the Demon Whale Sea. This was much easier and more reliable than searching for the Demon Emperor.
Naturally, there was no need to go to the two demon whale waters that he had already visited. What he wanted to go to was one that he had not been to before. Where would there be deep-sea demon whales that were old enough?
If he was lucky, he might be able to encounter a soul beast that was over 50 years old. Absorbing a soul ring of this age would be more in line with his expectations.
"Speaking of your ninth soul ring, should you consider absorbing the soul ring of the evil-eyed tyrant? The evil emperor's lifespan is as high as 79 years, close to 80 years."

"It would be a bit of a waste if a spirit ring with such a high age is left unabsorbed. Although its attributes do not match your two martial spirits, it is better if the age is high enough."

"When the age of the soul ring is high enough, it can make up for the shortcomings caused by the attributes. In addition, you also need to absorb the evil emperor's skull, so the soul ring can complement each other."

Snow Emperor suggested that when they go to the Evil Forest this time, the strongest one in it, the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord, is the target to be killed. It is not an exaggeration to say that his skull is the strongest skull in the world.
She would not compete with Jing Chen for the evil emperor's skull. She had already assumed that the skull would be absorbed by Jing Chen. It was precisely because of this that she thought of letting Jing Chen absorb the soul ring.
The absorption of soul rings and soul bones together can achieve the effect of one plus one greater than two, which will allow him to get greater benefits. Under the influence of soul bones, the spiritual soul ring absorbed by Jingchen may not be as good as He has poor effect on absorbing water or ice attribute soul rings. Of course, he can also attach this soul ring to the second martial soul.
"I have actually considered absorbing the Evil Emperor's soul ring, but after careful consideration, I still don't plan to attach the Evil Emperor's soul ring. Ice-attributed soul rings that are hundreds of thousands years old are hard to find, but water-attributed soul rings that are hundreds of thousands of years old are still If I can find it, I should be able to find a top-quality water attribute soul ring that is almost 10 years old for the ninth soul ring."

"A water attribute soul ring that is more than 50 years old is more suitable for my mutated water unicorn martial spirit than a spiritual soul ring that is 79 years old. If I compare the two, I will choose the former."

"As for attaching the Evil Emperor Soul Ring to the Time and Space Tower, I don't think it's appropriate. The 10-year-old time-attributed soul beast is more suitable for my Time and Space Tower," Jing Chen said with a smile.
I feel that a 10-year time attribute soul ring is more suitable for the Time and Space Tower, because after absorbing this soul ring, the time difference between the inside and outside of the Time and Space Tower will become even greater.
Although the Evil Emperor is old, far more than 10 years old, it cannot bring about changes in the time difference. This increase in time difference cannot be made up by the age of the soul ring.
It was precisely with this in mind that he directly abandoned the idea of ​​attaching the Evil Emperor Soul Ring to the Time and Space Tower Spirit. The Evil Emperor Soul Ring was not suitable to be attached to any martial spirit.
"Since you have made your decision, I won't persuade you any more. The evil emperor's soul ring can be swallowed by Yiyi. This is not a waste," said the Snow Emperor.
Jingchen must know his two martial souls better than her. Since he feels that the Evil Emperor Soul Ring is not suitable for him, then it may not be suitable for him, and there is no need to forcefully absorb it.
She knew that Yiyi could swallow the energy in the soul ring. Jingchen's fourth soul ring was first made by Yiyi who swallowed part of the soul ring energy, and then easily absorbed it.
Although this devouring ability is a bit cruel, it has to be said that it is really powerful. The reason why Yiyi's strength can improve so quickly is inseparable from this devouring ability.
"If the evil emperor's soul ring is swallowed by Yiyi, it will increase its lifespan by several thousand years, but it will only be a few thousand years, and it will not help much in increasing its combat power."

"So, I don't plan to let Yiyi swallow the Evil Emperor's soul ring, but I plan to forcibly fuse the energy in the Evil Emperor's soul ring into the soul bones and merge them into one."

"In this way, after I absorb the soul bone, it is equivalent to absorbing the soul ring. I can get double benefits and maximize the effect of the Evil Emperor's soul ring." Jing Chen expressed his thoughts.
If the Evil Emperor dies, his spiritual power will be dispersed in the soul ring and soul bones. Absorbing the soul bones alone is equivalent to gaining part of the Evil Emperor's spiritual power, not all of it.
Only by absorbing the soul rings and soul bones at the same time can we not waste a single bit of the Evil Emperor's mental power, and only in this way can his mental power be maximized.
The Evil Emperor Soul Ring was not suitable for his two martial souls, but he didn't want to miss out on this top-quality spiritual soul ring. He wanted to have the best of both worlds, so he came up with this method.
Since the martial soul cannot absorb this soul ring, it can absorb this soul ring in disguised form through the soul bone. In this way, it can have its cake and eat it too, taking care of both ends.
"Can soul rings and soul bones be fused?" Snow Emperor asked in surprise. This was the first time she had heard of such a thing. Ice Emperor and others also expressed surprise, feeling that Jing Chen's idea was a bit bold.
"Theoretically speaking, it is possible. After the soul beast dies, the origin of the body and its own energy are separated from the body, and a soul ring is formed after a special combination."

"The soul ring is not stable. In just one hour at most, the soul beast's origin and energy will be disconnected, causing the soul ring to dissipate."

"This process can be seen as taking a piece of ice out of the ice cellar. When it is removed from the low-temperature environment, the ice will slowly melt. If you can put it back into the ice cellar, you can stop the melting."

"If we want the soul ring to not dissipate, we need to find a new carrier for it, and what could be more suitable for this carrier than the soul bone from the same spirit beast?"

"The soul ring and the soul bone can be regarded as one. As long as we control it properly, we can integrate the soul beast origin and energy of the soul ring into the soul bone and let them coexist."

"I came up with this idea because I got inspiration from the Ice Emperor. When she recast her body, she successfully fused her soul ring and soul bones together," Jing Chen slowly explained.
Snow Emperor, Ice Emperor and others all looked thoughtful, thinking about the feasibility of Jingchen's idea. This matter is indeed feasible in theory, but it is only in theory. How does it work in practice? We don't know. After all, there has never been a successful case before, and the situation of the Ice Emperor is somewhat special.
"I was able to successfully fuse the soul ring and soul bone together with the help of Wanzai Xuanbing Marrow, using this as the intermediate link to successfully fuse the soul ring and soul bone."

"Actually, strictly speaking, I don't fuse the soul ring and soul bone together, but the soul ring, soul bone and body with Wanzai Xuanbing marrow as the core. This situation does not apply to your fusion of the Evil Emperor's soul ring and soul bone," Bingdi reminded seriously, fearing that Jingchen might misunderstand her situation and make a wrong judgment.
"I know that the fusion of the Evil Emperor's soul ring and soul bone cannot be generalized to your situation, but your fusion is indeed of reference significance, which makes me certain that this fusion can be successful."

"I now have a more specific fusion plan, and I am more than [-]% sure of success." Jing Chen said, merging the Evil Emperor's soul ring and soul bone. When he opened the Evil Emperor's skull, he started planning. Now we have developed a relatively reasonable integration plan, and we are still very confident about it.
"Now that you have figured out a way, let's do it. If there is anything we need to cooperate with, we will try our best to cooperate," said the Snow Emperor, choosing to support Jing Chen.
"Just leave the matter of fusing the soul rings and soul bones to me and Yiyi. You guys will be there to guard us and don't let the soul beasts or people disturb us," Jing Chen said.
When merging, they need to have a tacit understanding of each other's energy, so that it seems like the same person is controlling it. Only he and Yiyi can achieve this level of tacit understanding, and no one else can.
"No problem." Snow Emperor and others nodded. Naturally, they would not slack off in this kind of protection, and they would never be disturbed when the time comes.
"I plan to go to the Evil Forest with Yiyi first to explore the situation. Once we figure out the general situation of the Evil Forest, we can start taking action," Jing Chen said.
This time, he did not let Yiyi open the space channel. Instead, he did it himself, tore apart the space, stepped into the space channel with Yiyi, and disappeared into the room.
"Jingchen, who has condensed the dual attribute soul core of time and space, is more accomplished in space than Ditian." The Ice Emperor looked at the place where Jingchen disappeared and said in surprise.
The condensation of a soul core can be said to have made Jingchen undergo earth-shaking changes. His attainments in space have surpassed that of Di Tian, ​​who has been studying this for hundreds of thousands of years.
Such a change is really surprising. She still feels unreal now. The improvement speed is too fast, that is, she has not seen her for a few hours. How can she change so much?
"As the saying goes, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. It must be extremely difficult for him to condense the dual-attribute soul core. After successfully condensing it, it is normal for such an improvement to occur," said the Snow Emperor.
The Evil Forest is located at the northern end of the Sun and Moon Empire, tens of thousands of miles away from Wuling City where Jingchen is located. With such a long distance, even an Ultimate Douluo flight would take several hours.
It only took Jingchen less than 1 minute to reach here, and he arrived here after two consecutive space leaps. He has not yet fully mastered the space power in his body. When traveling through ultra-long distance space, the furthest he can reach is It is more than 7000 miles, but has not broken through to the number of [-] miles. There is still a gap with Yiyi's space shuttle ability.
During the time that Jingchen was staying in the Sun and Moon Empire, he took the time to go to the Demonic Forest. He came here for no other reason than to explore a way, so that he could come here more easily in the future.
The Evil Forest is the largest soul beast habitat in the Sun and Moon Empire, and it is also the most terrifying soul beast habitat. Very few people dare to come here to obtain soul rings.
One is because more than [-]% of the soul beasts in the Evil Forest are spiritual soul beasts. Such soul beasts are not suitable for non-spiritual soul masters, and there is no need to come to obtain soul rings.
The second reason is that the Evil Eye Tyrant Lord, a super powerful soul beast, lives in the Evil Forest. Out of fear of him, soul masters naturally do not want to come.
The Demonic Forest is known as a restricted area in the Sun and Moon Empire. Like the Far North, it is regarded as a dangerous place. It is very dangerous after entering. Whether you can come out alive depends on luck.
Jingchen appeared in the sky outside the Demonic Forest and flew directly into the forest without falling to the ground. With his strength, he didn't need to be too cautious.
Of course, there is no need to be too careful, which does not mean that he is not careful at all. He still restrained his aura and released his mental power, covering several miles in radius.
Because the Evil Forest is located to the north, the trees are not as lush as the Star Forest, and the interior is darker and full of evil, but it does not live up to the word evil.
Jingchen flew extremely fast and soon arrived at the central area of ​​the Evil Forest. After arriving in this area, he became more cautious, fearing to alert the evil-eyed tyrant master.
The Evil Emperor is a spiritual soul beast, and his perception is extremely sharp. Even Emperor Tian is inferior to him in this regard. Naturally, you need to be more careful in the central area where he may appear.
Yiyi also took action to help Jingchen cover up his aura, minimizing his sense of presence. As long as he didn't take action, even the Evil Emperor would have difficulty sensing their presence.
Jingchen landed in the central area and moved quickly in the forest, exploring the surroundings. After a few hours of wandering around, he deepened his understanding of the central area.
In the process, I was lucky enough to discover a 10-year-old evil-eyed soul beast. To be precise, it was the evil-eyed tyrant soul beast.
After a soul beast like Evil Eye reaches 10 years, it will undergo some kind of evolution. As its strength increases, its title will also change, and the name Tyrant can be added.
This means that they are already relatively advanced beings among the cross-eyed group, and are second only to the evil-eyed tyrant master.
Jing Chen secretly noted down the approximate activity area of ​​this soul beast, and listed him as one of the choices for the Snow Emperor's skull.
After wandering around for another few hours, Jingchen moved closer to the central area. Several 10-year-old soul beasts were discovered.
"There are quite a few high-level soul beasts in the Evil Forest." Jing Chen gained a better understanding of the strength of the Evil Forest. It is indeed the largest soul beast forest in the Sun and Moon Empire.
