...Chapter 447 Phoenix-tailed Cockscomb Serpent
After arranging everything, the group entered the Star Dou Great Forest! The moment they entered the Star Dou Great Forest, everyone felt that the air had become incredibly clear!
Originally, with Tang San's bloodline, he should have felt incredibly welcome when he arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest. However, he only felt the freshness of the air. As for that innate sense of intimacy with the forest, it had completely disappeared. He could even vaguely sense that the Star Dou Great Forest did not welcome him!
The reason for this is quite simple: Tang San's first spirit ring for Blue Silver Grass came from the Mandragora Serpent, which not only did not help the source of Blue Silver Grass, but also contained a certain amount of toxins, damaging the original source of Blue Silver Grass!
Although the second spirit ring comes from a plant, it comes from the Ghost Vine, a plant that contains neurotoxins. It has very low compatibility with the Blue Silver Grass spirit and the toxins it contains will destroy the life essence of the Blue Silver Grass!
If Tang San still possessed the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline and benefited from the selfless dedication of the Blue Silver Grass clan, this damage wouldn't have been enough to downgrade the quality of his Blue Silver Grass martial soul. However, the core of Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor bloodline was extracted by Lan Yin, leaving his Blue Silver Emperor bloodline in a state of near-crippled disuse. Tang San also broke ties with the Blue Silver Grass clan. Without their selfless dedication, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass martial soul is now on the verge of falling out of the mid-grade martial soul category!
Andy and Felix estimated that if Tang San absorbed the Human-Faced Demon Spider's spirit ring as in the original story, then after Tang San absorbed the third spirit ring, the quality of his spirit would completely drop to a low-grade spirit, which is the most common type of useless spirit in the entire Douluo Continent!
The decline in the quality of his martial soul means that Tang San's cultivation speed will drop again, a decline that even the "Mysterious Heaven Skill" cannot salvage!
Getting back to the point, after entering the Star Dou Great Forest, Xiao Wu seemed to have forgotten Flander's earnest teachings, skipping and hopping all the way, as carefree as if she had returned home!
Although Xiao Wu's behavior was a bit too unruly, Flander could see that Xiao Wu had not strayed from the boundaries he had set, which meant that Flander had no suitable reason to teach Xiao Wu a lesson!
As the saying goes, out of sight, out of mind. After realizing that he could not control Xiao Wu, Flander also chose to let things slide. Besides, this Soul Hunt had two Soul Saints as backup, which was much stronger than the original story where only Zhao Wuji was a Soul Saint protecting the team!
In order to train the practical combat skills of Tang San and other students, on the path of soul hunting, some students, including Tang San, were able to handle soul beasts, but Flander let them handle them on their own!
Of course, during this process, Tang San's team avoided the spirit beasts they encountered whenever possible. Only when they couldn't avoid them did Tang San and his students choose to injure the spirit beasts instead of taking their lives!
Tang San then solemnly explained to the students why he had not taken the lives of these soul beasts. After hearing Tang San's words, the students exclaimed that Tang San's teacher, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, was truly an elder full of wisdom!
Listening to the Shrek Academy students' evaluation of Master Yu Xiaogang, Flander also felt honored, after all, Yu Xiaogang was the wise member of the Golden Iron Triangle and a famous theoretical master on the mainland!
Shrek's group soon encountered the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent, which was the source of Oscar's third spirit ring in the original story!
Although Flander really wanted Tang San and the others to have a real battle, Flander's intuition told him that something bad was about to happen. In order to avoid any unforeseen complications, Flander decided to make the battle quick after confirming that the age of this soul beast was indeed suitable for Oscar!
Immediately, Flander's spirit possession activated, and he immediately used his first spirit skill to suppress the Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent!
For a Soul Saint, especially when facing a thousand-year-old Soul Beast that is very effective against his own Martial Soul, it is like having the upper hand. After all, if Flander lets the thousand-year-old Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent escape from his hands, Flander will be too ashamed to show his face!
After Flander had the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent firmly under control, he immediately prepared to run away with his group of students!
