Chapter 113 Let's begin the experiment.
"Ah!"
Upon hearing Wu Heyi's words, Xiao Wu couldn't help but sneer, clearly showing her distrust.
Tang San and Er Ming, standing to the side, also showed disdain, scoffing at his reasons.
Such a claim is so absurd and bizarre that no one could possibly believe it.
Although there are all sorts of strange and wonderful martial souls on the Douluo Continent, the idea that a person's martial soul would emit light when it encounters a specific soul beast is simply a fantasy.
Perhaps only innocent, naive six-year-old children could be so easily fooled.
However, in fact, Wu Heyi was telling the truth this time.
This peculiar phenomenon was something he discovered by chance after successfully acquiring three spirit rings.
Although it sounds ridiculous, it is absolutely true.
Faced with the skeptical looks and ridicule of the crowd, Wu Heyi felt extremely embarrassed. He hurriedly shouted:
"Don't laugh, I'm not lying, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can test it for yourselves!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu abruptly turned her head, her eyes sharply fixed on Wu Heyi, and coldly questioned him:
"Try it? Okay, then tell me, how should we try it?"
Do you expect us to sacrifice our hard-earned cultivation and precious soul bones for your experiments?
Upon hearing this, Wu He was speechless and froze on the spot.
For a moment, the surroundings fell into a deathly silence, as if even the air had frozen.
This is the terrifying aspect of the self-proving trap! It's like an invisible net that tightly binds people within it, making it difficult for them to escape.
Wu Heyi's heart tightened. After a few seconds of thought, he reacted quickly and shouted:
"I'm only level 38 right now. Even if some of you are willing to sacrifice yourselves, I'm not strong enough to absorb it!"
At this critical moment, Wu Heyi suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of the key factor: his own cultivation level.
He quickly added, "Not only that, as long as a soul beast is still alive, my martial soul will immediately sense it once it gets within ten meters of me!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu narrowed her eyes slightly and let out a long, thoughtful "Oh—"
Then, she asked with great interest:
"So, what kind of soul beast do you need?"
Wu Heyi blurted out without almost any thought:
"If my cultivation level could be raised to level 40 at this moment, then the soul beast I need should be a Frost Wolf soul beast with at least 50,000 years of cultivation."
Of course, if you really can't find a suitable one, you can settle for the Frosthound as a second choice.
However, as soon as the words left his mouth, Wu Heyi regretted them.
It turns out that in the entire world of soul beasts, there are actually only two major categories of soul beasts: one category has a cultivation level below 50,000 years, and the other category has a cultivation level above 50,000 years.
In this mysterious and dangerous world, soul beasts are divided into different levels based on their cultivation level.
Generally speaking, if an adult soul beast's cultivation level is less than 50,000 years, it is almost certain that it will never be able to cross that huge gap and advance to the ranks of the remarkable 100,000-year soul beasts.
However, once a soul beast's cultivation level breaks through the 5-year limit, regardless of whether it has reached adulthood, it has the potential to reach a higher level and attain a 10-year cultivation level.
This is why there is a world of difference between soul beasts with a cultivation level of less than 5 years and those with a cultivation level of more than 5 years.
The former are often limited to lower levels and subject to various restrictions;
The latter, on the other hand, harbors the dream of becoming a top expert and strives hard to achieve it.
But at this moment, a guy named Wu Heyi actually made a request to obtain a soul beast with a cultivation of more than 50,000 years in front of two powerful 200,000-year soul beasts—Xiao Wu and Er Ming.
This behavior is tantamount to courting death.
Fortunately, this time Wu Heyi seems to have been favored by the goddess of fate.
After he said those words, Xiao Wu and Er Ming did not fly into a rage or immediately launch an attack as people had expected.
Instead, they just stared at Wu Heyi in astonishment, as if they were seeing a completely unbelievable creature.
"What's wrong with you? How do you know so much about these things?!"
Xiao Wu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
She simply couldn't understand why this seemingly ordinary human knew so many secrets about her.
Just as everyone was still in shock, they suddenly heard a whooshing sound, followed by a tail as long as a mountain that lashed out.
In the blink of an eye, a Frosthound, covered in wounds but exuding a chilling aura, appeared before them.
Rewind to twenty years ago, when Xiao Wu had not yet transformed into human form and was still in her soul beast form.
Just then, a Frost Hound with 40,000 years of cultivation, originating from a distant snow mountain, accidentally wandered into the vast Star Dou Great Forest.
The Frosthound caught a whiff of Xiao Wu's scent and, filled with greed, plotted to make her its meal.
At that time, Xiao Wu was at a critical moment in breaking through the bottleneck of her 100,000-year cultivation level. Already in a bad mood, she was naturally furious at this unexpected visitor. So, Xiao Wu decided to vent her anger on this ignorant little dog.
However, unexpectedly, just as Xiaowu was about to deliver the fatal blow to the Frosthound, she suddenly changed her mind.
Perhaps it's because ice-attribute soul beasts are extremely rare in the Star Dou Great Forest, or perhaps it's fate.
In the end, Xiao Wu showed mercy and spared the dog's life, keeping it by her side as a pastime when she was bored.
And so, the days passed by, and twenty years flew by.
Initially, Xiao Wu planned to release the Frost Hound when she embarked on the path to godhood, but the gears of fate are always full of variables.
Who would have thought that at this moment, the Frosthound that had almost lost its life at Xiao Wu's hands would come in handy?
Wuhe glanced at the Frosthound that was on the verge of death before him, and a sense of horror washed over him.
He knew that Da Ming had been closely monitoring the situation here, but he never expected that the Frost Hound from the distant snow-capped mountains would be delivered to him so quickly after he mentioned that he needed a soul beast.
It's important to know that the journey from the snow-capped mountains to here is long and fraught with dangers.
It is truly unbelievable and incredible that they were able to complete this seemingly impossible task so quickly!
"Alright, let's see if what you're saying is true or false!"
Xiao Wu smiled and waved to Wu Heyi, while simultaneously signaling to him with her eyes:
"Hurry up and show your martial spirit."
Despite his deep reluctance, Wu Heyi gritted his teeth and chose to obey Xiao Wu's instructions, given her unquestionable gaze and tone.
He took a deep breath, then slowly closed his eyes, and began to concentrate on mobilizing the hidden power within his body.
As time passed, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from Wu Heyi.
Immediately afterwards, a huge, faintly visible phantom of a Five Elements Array Plate appeared behind him—that was his Martial Soul!
