Chapter 207 The Great Battle is Imminent
"The interrogation seems to reveal the following information:"
That must have happened during a large-scale tribal trade event with many participants, when the other party was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to come into contact with the awakening of martial spirits.
However, the other party in the transaction was unusually cautious and conservative, keeping the method of awakening their martial soul tightly under their control and not imparting it to the other party in the slightest!
Wu Heyi's expression was solemn as he slowly explained, his words filled with profound meaning.
"However, we all know that the awakening of a martial spirit is only the first step."
The next crucial and important step is to hunt down spirit rings.
It's important to understand that while everyone's specific needs regarding spirit rings may differ to some extent, there are still some common principles that remain constant.
At this point, Wu Heyi paused briefly and glanced at everyone.
At this moment, Qiang Ge was seen muttering to himself:
"Is the required knowledge actually the same? The same knowledge... what kind of knowledge is it?"
He frowned slightly, lost in thought.
"Brother Qiang, I haven't actually explained this to you in detail before."
After all, every single soul beast you've hunted, and the corresponding soul rings of different ages that you can absorb, have all been carefully sought out by me beforehand.
And all you have to do is absorb these spirit rings one by one without making a mistake, only then can you possess such unparalleled strength as you do now!
Wu Heyi spoke slowly and deliberately, his tone calm yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.
After hearing these words, Brother Qiang nodded repeatedly, indicating his agreement.
Indeed, as Wu Heyi said, if it weren't for his silent dedication and meticulous arrangements behind the scenes, everyone would probably not have been able to grow to where they are today so smoothly.
"However, you may not know that the soul rings obtained by soul masters of each level from soul beasts have a clear cultivation limit at each stage."
If a Soul Master absorbs a Soul Ring exceeding this limit, they will encounter two completely different situations!
At this point, Wu Heyi held up two fingers to indicate the position.
"One method is to absorb spirit rings beyond one's level, which means to forcefully absorb the spirit ring into one's body and complete the fusion by relying on strong willpower and strength."
However, this would inevitably cause the Soul Master to experience a period of weakness, during which their combat power would drop significantly.
The second aspect, however, is extremely bloody and cruel—because Soul Masters are simply unable to withstand the impact of the immense Martial Soul energy contained within the Soul Rings, their only fate is to have their bodies explode and die on the spot!
Upon hearing this, Brother Qiang couldn't help but cover his mouth with his hand, his face full of astonishment. His eyes were wide open, as if they could fit two eggs inside.
"You might as well imagine, if you lacked the valuable experience I have accumulated over the years, and relied solely on your own struggles to try to advance to level 40, how many predecessors would have to pay the price of their lives to pave the way for you!"
Only by treading on the blood, tears, and bones of countless predecessors can you possibly reach the difficult level 40 you are currently at!
Wu Heyi's words struck Qiang Ge like a thunderbolt, instantly waking him from his daze!
It was at this moment that Brother Qiang finally realized why the enemy, despite being eager to launch an attack, had remained inactive and had not made a move.
"Because the other party is eager to find out whether we truly have the method to awaken a martial soul, and whether there is a shortcut to directly absorb a soul ring."
Brother Qiang is quick-witted and grasped the key point instantly, and was able to apply what he learned to other situations.
"So that's how it was used!"
Wu Heyi couldn't help but show his appreciation, expressing his approval of this approach.
"Therefore, we don't need to be overly nervous at all."
Keep in mind that the enemy leader is only level 20, a pitifully weak 'newbie'!
Even though he brought a large number of people, we have plenty of Soul Masters on our side! Just think about it, wouldn't it be as easy for Soul Masters to deal with ordinary people as cutting melons and vegetables?
"Even one against ten is a conservative estimate!" Brother Qiang said, waving his hand confidently.
After two days of careful rest, the two Soul Masters responsible for guarding the village entrance rushed over to report the news.
They claimed to have detected the approaching massive enemy force, roughly estimating that the enemy had mobilized at least two thousand men, indicating that this time they were going all out and holding nothing back!
The team came rushing in with overwhelming force, like a surging torrent, as if they were there specifically to cause trouble.
As expected, just ten minutes after the gatekeeper came to deliver the message, the enemy's vanguard was already approaching the village entrance.
Wu Heyi quickly checked the shared view of everyone, and then without hesitation, he strode out to personally greet this ill-intentioned team.
Wu Heyi rushed to the village entrance like a gust of wind. Before he could catch his breath, he saw the other party leading a group of people surging towards him menacingly.
The man standing opposite Wu Heyi was burly with a face full of menacing features. He pointed a thick finger directly at Wu Heyi and shouted:
"Little brat, hurry up and call out the adults in charge of your family!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Heyi was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter, pointing to his nose as he laughed, and asked in return:
"What did you say? You want me to go find an adult?"
Haha, let me tell you, I'm the one you're looking for!
What exactly do you want by bringing so many people to the entrance of our village?!
Upon hearing Wu Heyi's words, the man's eyes widened, staring intently at Wu Heyi as if he were about to breathe fire, but he remained silent for a long time.
After a long while, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth:
"Alright, kid, you're in charge now, aren't you!"
He paused briefly, then continued fiercely:
"A couple of days ago, when our village's hunting team went out hunting, they were suspected of being kidnapped by people from your village."
I'm here today on orders, and I give you one day to release him! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!
Before he could finish speaking, the leader suddenly waved his hands, and a powerful burst of soul force erupted.
Immediately afterwards, a dazzling light flashed, and a huge, ferocious dog, nearly a meter tall, appeared before everyone.
The large dog's fur stood on end like steel needles, its fangs were sharp, and its eyes gleamed with a chilling light.
For a moment, many people behind the other party trembled with fear upon seeing the large dog, and some even began to instinctively back away.
"What hunting team? We didn't see any of them. Please leave!"
Wu He calmly gestured for the other party to leave.
However, that person snorted coldly, pointed at Wu Heyi's nose with a face full of anger, and cursed:
"Hmph, you think you can just say you didn't see it? Stop trying to fool me!"
Let us in quickly so we can thoroughly search your village.
If you really can't find the person we're looking for, then you're lucky.
"But if I find out, you'll be in big trouble. You'd better just wait and see!"
Faced with such an arrogant and domineering threat, Wu Heyi showed no fear. He stood up straight and responded without backing down:
"Hey! Who do you think you are? Our village isn't a place you can just search whenever you want!"
"Yan will not tolerate your unbridled and reckless behavior!"
