Chapter 141: Crimson Flame Charming Snake
An hour later, Dugu Yan finally recovered.
“Let’s go! Let’s go inside and see if there are any suitable Soul Rings…”
Saying that, Ling Mo took the lead in stepping forward, with Dugu Yan following closely behind.
In Sunset Forest, there are very many Soul Beasts, and most areas are unexplored areas. Its mysteriousness is no less dangerous than Star Dou Great Forest.
Although he had Peacock Plume in hand, he still needed to be careful; no matter when, he could not relax his vigilance.
Ling Mo had always maintained this good habit, staying highly vigilant no matter the time or place.
“What is that?”
Suddenly, Dugu Yan’s surprised voice came. Ling Mo looked over curiously.
A Giant Beast was passing through the mountain forest, with a massive body!
“Ten Thousand Years Spirit Rhinoceros Beast, don’t disturb it. Its Soul Ring is not suitable for you…”
Ling Mo pulled Dugu Yan’s hand and directly left this area.
Although he wasn’t afraid of it, to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was better not to disturb it.
This type of Soul Beast is very common in Sunset Forest. If he killed every one he encountered, the Soul Beasts in the forest would probably go extinct in just a few years.
“For my fourth Soul Ring, what kind of Soul Ring should I absorb to be suitable?”
Dugu Yan was puzzled. All along, her Soul Rings had been found by Dugu Bo, following Dugu Bo’s old path.
Obviously, that path was no longer suitable for her now! Because her Martial Soul had already mutated, continuing on the old path would definitely not bring out the true power of this Martial Soul.
“Immortal Snake Emperor’s greatest feature is that body of Deadly Poison flames. Your fourth Soul Ring should best have both Flame and Deadly Poison attributes.
Only then can the true power of this Martial Soul be unleashed!
Once a Fire Attribute Soul Ring is absorbed, your combat power will soar, not just developing as a Control-type Soul Master, but also possessing certain attack aggression.
Speaking of which, a Martial Soul with both control and strong attack characteristics is perfect, allowing combination of both traits to make corresponding adjustments against different opponents…”
Ling Mo had learned quite a bit of Martial Soul knowledge from Master these years.
Moreover, Ling Mo had already formed some unique insights of his own, no longer constrained by the original theoretical limitations.
Master’s theories were not wrong, but for many factors that had not appeared before, he didn’t understand them as quickly as Ling Mo.
This was also why Ling Mo liked to go against him.
He was too stubborn and didn’t know how to adapt at all.
“Fire Attribute, Deadly Poison!”
Dugu Yan murmured, although she didn’t understand what Ling Mo was saying, she knew Ling Mo wouldn’t harm her.
“This way…”
Saying that, Ling Mo pulled Dugu Yan’s hand, bypassing a stream, and the two arrived at a gorge.
Dual Pupils activated, and Ling Mo sensed a scorching energy fluctuation nearby.
“What’s wrong?”
Dugu Yan saw Ling Mo standing stunned in place and asked puzzledly. She looked around for a long time but found nothing unusual.
“Shh…”
Ling Mo signaled her to be quiet, then gently placed his hand on the ground. Clearly, there was a shallow trace in this area.
It seemed something had crawled through here, leaving a long trail.
The ground clearly showed signs of being burned, with a charred smell permeating the vicinity.
“Found it! Five thousand year Crimson Flame Charming Snake…”
Ling Mo’s eyes lit up. Following the trail, he indeed saw the giant snake coiled at the edge of the gorge cliff.
Dugu Yan was shocked and, following Ling Mo’s gaze, indeed saw the giant snake coiled at the upper cliff edge.
“Oh my god… this…”
Dugu Yan was shocked. That snake was really too big, and… its whole body was emitting scorching flames, scorching the flowers, plants, and trees wherever it passed.
“Stay here and don’t move…”
After instructing her, Ling Mo directly activated Martial Soul Possession, and a pair of Wings instantly unfurled.
Five-Colored Light surrounded him, and with a fierce flap, he soared into the air.
Five-Colored Holy Light slowly bloomed, and instantly… a beam of light smashed directly over.
The Crimson Flame Charming Snake reacted very quickly. The moment it spotted Ling Mo, it opened its bloody maw and spat out a mass of flames.
The flames carried a charming aura; once hit, it was easy to fall into a mental daze.
Dual Pupils activated directly, immune to this charm. Ling Mo countered with firelight; Swallowing Heaven Sparrow’s flames were not stronger than Crimson Flame Charming Snake’s.
The moment the two flames collided, a burst of firelight instantly exploded, igniting the mountain forest within hundreds of meters around…
“Interesting! I really underestimated you…”
Ling Mo’s move missed, and he couldn’t help laughing. Originally, he thought one move would suffice against this guy.
It seemed he had still underestimated it.
As the flames subsided, the Crimson Flame Charming Snake launched another move.
Ling Mo’s Five-Colored Divine Light instantly erupted, and he coldly said, “Confiscated…”
Suddenly, that mass of firelight shot into the sky toward Ling Mo, then vanished into thin air…
Immediately, the Crimson Flame Charming Snake was greatly alarmed, glanced at Ling Mo in bewilderment, knowing it had run into trouble and wanting to slip away directly.
“You can’t leave!”
At this moment, Ling Mo suddenly appeared behind it, grabbed its tail fiercely, and with a burst of power, slammed it down hard.
“Hiss…”
With a hiss, the Crimson Flame Charming Snake spat out another mass of flames, spraying straight toward him.
But unbeknownst to it, the flames disappeared directly before touching Ling Mo.
Gone…
???
The Crimson Flame Charming Snake was utterly bewildered and confused.
What Divine Skill was this?
“Come down here…”
With a fierce swing, the Crimson Flame Charming Snake’s massive body was forcibly yanked down from the cliff by Ling Mo.
Wings spread, soaring into the air instantly, dragging it high up, then plummeting down and slamming it hard onto the ground.
Struggling, its bloody maw suddenly twisted back, biting toward Ling Mo.
But it didn’t expect Ling Mo’s strength to be so immense. He swung it up again, slamming it hard onto the ground, crashing into the hard stone.
“Earth River Chariot…”
With a cold shout, the surrounding terrain began to change.
Instantly… a giant hand burst from the ground, directly grabbing the Crimson Flame Charming Snake and firmly controlling it.
This Crimson Flame Charming Snake’s mind completely collapsed.
Encountering such an unreasonable guy who grabbed and flung it wildly right from the start, and not only that, he could even confiscate its flames.
It was simply its natural counter, completely unreasonable.
Seeing the giant hand grab it and then squeeze fiercely, slamming it hard onto the ground.
After a bout of fierce slamming, the Crimson Flame Charming Snake was quickly knocked out by Ling Mo—simple, brutal, with no ability to resist.
Over there, Dugu Yan was dumbfounded!
Was this still human?
“Hmm, it seems the evolved Peacock is indeed much more terrifying than before. No matter what kind of attack, all confiscated…”
Ling Mo glanced at the Crimson Flame Charming Snake, and Dugu Yan had already walked over.
“Go on! Finish it off. This Soul Ring is yours…”
Saying that, Ling Mo handed Dugu Yan a Short Sword.
“What was that Soul Skill of yours just now? Why did I just see a flash of Five-Colored Light and the Crimson Flame Charming Snake’s flames were gone?”
Dugu Yan asked curiously. She really felt this Soul Skill was too unbelievable.
How could there be such a Soul Skill in the world? It was simply unreasonable, right? Just confiscated like that?
“Hehe, this one? It’s an instinct that comes with my Martial Soul. No matter how powerful the Soul Skill, as long as I want, I can confiscate it directly…”
Ling Mo laughed. Confiscate was indeed an instinct that came with the Martial Soul.
Originally, when the External Soul Bone appeared, its power wasn’t this great; at least those with far superior strength couldn’t be confiscated.
But now… after awakening, especially with the five elements gathered, as long as it’s a ranged strike Soul Skill, Ling Mo could confiscate it directly.
For close combat melee, it would directly weaken the opponent’s power, affect their consciousness, and such.
Anyway, it was particularly abnormal.
